DOA 6 announced (early 2019)
- Thread starter Andy
- Start date
They definitely could have implemented it better, but it wasn't bad. Each character started off with a good number of costumes (I think 12ish) which is a good number and then had new skins coming out on a pretty regular basis. All cosmetic. I think DLC makes sense in that way.
I do wish they would put in a character creator though. Almost all fighting games have them now-a-days.
As a long time DOA fan, I hope they bring in some new modes and single player content. I live the game, but I don't have the time needed to be competitive for online play to be much of a draw. DOA has had the same game modes since DOA2. We need more than just Story, tag team, survival and their vs variations.
One more thing I would like would be an option to turn off a particular costume so the computer doesn't select it. I don't want to be playing at night and have my 11 year older daughter come in seeing me fighting against someone in nothing but a dental floss bikini.
You can tell that Itigaki had nothing to do with that trailer. It's all blokes.
His version would have had bouncing sweaty tits and booties set to some hair-metal electric guitars.
And then there'd be a moon with clouds in front of it at some point.

Stop slut shaming! It's important to teach kids to respect everyone... Except for people with a different opinion. #slutpride
(I'm kidding by the by. I agree though. It should be an option to clean the game up a bit, as silly as it seems that two people beating the s*** out of each other isn't offensive, but the boobs are.
)
Agreed.
Just read an IGN article on this. They actually are trying to clean it up a little bit and have more modest (relatively speaking) costumes. They want it to be a little more of a mature game and not ust appeal to super horny teenagers. They said that everyone will still be very attractive, but less focus on the *slutty side.
Looking at this pic of Helena seems to show that. She's still well endowed, but not on the point of being ridiculous.

The main guy also talked about have more for single players to do in the game (nice win) but he really only talked about the story mode and that they want to have more single player modes. Hopefully they come up with something good. Soul Caliber used to be pretty good about giving us single player stuff.

Lol, I wonder what that will do to their revenue stream. I remember reading somewhere, that Helena's most purchased costume was the 'Bathtime' one where she's wearing a towel with wet hair.
And I think it was either Kasumi or Lei Fang who had the popular maid costume.
I'm probably not their intended market for those skins, but I actually like them. I've loved all the DoAX games, and saving up to buy the jewelled bikinis and whatnot. Buying with the in-game money I mean. I'm not spending real cash on silly clothes. Lol
I hope they take a good look at Mortal Kombat for the single player stuff. They nailed all the modes in that. Street Fighter? Not so much...
It looks good, seems to have lost its vibrant colour pallet and anime design/style, bounce physics have been turned to mute too lol
Yeah, I'm not sure if it's just the colours, but something definitely looks off about it.
The character models look a bit strange too.
Edit: maybe it's because I'm watching it on a non-HDR screen?
Dead or Alive 6 will tone down the wobbly bits, half-heartedly
“For this version, we still have Kasumi with her previous costumes, and there are some parts that are going to jiggle or move, but we want to make it a lot more natural. That is one goal, to make movement very natural. Also, each character has a very strong personality and we want to emphasize that.”
It’s not the first time that the series has attempted to move away from teen wank fodder. Dead or Alive 5 did it, but subsequently doubled down on T&A with the DLC. Shimbori isn’t ruling anything out.
“Of course we’re going to tone down at this point, but for downloadable content, we have to see what gamers really want"
"...but he reiterated that there would still be jiggling. A “mature, natural look” is the goal. With big jiggling boobs."

"He reiterated that there would still be jiggling." That's all I needed to hear.

I don't like the new one button mechanic and the bloodsplatter effect. Both were unnecessary additions. Kasumi and Helena look great though.
I feel like it's anti-feminist to not support large jiggly breasted women's rights to fight in a bikini/dental floss.
I mean, I bet Yohei Shimbori, this entitled man, didn't consult a panel of large breasted women about this...

I've tried a couple of these games and just couldn't get into them. I'm more hyped for Soul Calibur 6.
Same here. DOA is solid, i enjoyed a couple of them but Soul Calibur is the real deal to me.
Of course they all take a backseat to Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat but that's not really relevant here.
