Hey guys..
First of all.. love the game, give it 4.5 out of 5.

Quick question for you though...
Does the long flowing hair on the girls dissapoint anyone else
besides me?

All of the long hair seems to move in chunks as it slides
around on their shoulders and I would
have expected to see finer hair (individual strands) on the 360.

I know this seems like a minor thing, but the game is so beautiful in
many ways... then you see chunks of hair sliding around on their shoulders.

...its just kind of freaky, dont you think?

I've been playing for a while also. It is rather dissappointing to see hair that looks like it did on the dreamcast but that could also be said for the characters. While the backgrounds are jaw dropping the characters almost look slightly out of place. Now if DOA5 ends up looking like the CG endings in DOA4 then I will get it otherwise this will be my final DOA game.

same here. that's really disappointing, looks like DOA3 is better in rendering hair

Wow! I've been thinking of starting this thread since I got the game. It really looks like total crap. I know the system can do better. Here's the thing though...would you rather wait until July for sweet lookin hair?

Initially, I noticed the hair and sometimes the costumes in trailers and videos, and it looked a little awkward. But after having picked up the game and having played it for a while I do not notice either at all. Giving the hair and costumes their own physics is a step up in my opinion. The other thing I might add is that I play on my HDTV in 1080i, and on my monitor in 1280x1024, so things like blocks and chunks might be less visible.

Come on are we forgetting these are 1st generation titles? The GAMEPLAY IS TIGHT (Not the Slang) the online is pretty nice I don't really care about the hair physics as I know in time stuff like this will be worked out, right now I'm enjoying the hell out of this game.

what annoys me most about the hair is how it slides on their clothes as if everything was made out buttered silk

The hair designs were done that way purposely. They wanted to make the hair flow extremely realisticly while the characters are "fighting" not while in victory poses or other times in the game.

Wow, an amazing game comes out and every aspect of it is awesome and someone has to point out what is probably its only "minor" flaw. What the heck is the matter with you people lol, I mean damn, the game rocks and all people want to do is trash it in one way or another.

I dont find the hair to be a distraction or irritation at all. The game is definitely the best DOA yet and will be for a long time, this is what we have and its awesome. Everything in DOA4 has been improved from DOA Ultimate and DOA3 and this puppy is capable of 1080i resolution. Its like someone saying no to a million dollar diamond because it has a slight bit of color in it lol.

DOA4 is hands down the best DOA yet, HAVE A NICE DAY.

Dude, calm down.. its just a topic to discuss about.
We all love the game here... like I said.. 4.5 out of 5.

Maybe Team Ninja did design it that way... I'm just saying
it looks like something you'd not expect on a 360. Thats all.

If we really wanted to get more nitpicky about the game, I'm sure we
could go on and on about certain aspects that we have already been overlooking
for the last 2 to 3 installments of the game.. but thats not what we
are discussing here..

its just simply.... hair.

The hair looks good in gameplay, but in cutscenes they needed some work on the hair flowing. I noticed it in story mode with the girl who is German, and the girl who talks to her mom in the Japanese house(I am new to the series, and have'nt gotten the names down). The hair just waves out in big hunky strands. I am enjoying the game, and I hope that the online play will keep me busy for a while.

i dont know about wallowing about how the hair looks but the rest of the game is fucking awesome, best doa yet.

hair dont bother me in the least, the boobies bounce perfect

tNCecil · « **Reply #13 on:** January 02, 2006, 08:53:00 PM »

Im glad im not the only one who thinks the hair looks like ass. A group like Team Ninja should have been able to accomplish something better then what we have. The anime style of the characters faces also contrasts a bit too much with the awesome looking backgrounds for my tastes

LowProfileWurm · « **Reply #14 on:** January 02, 2006, 09:54:00 PM »

I must say that the hair bothers me a bit too. I never really took much notice (because I was getting my ass beaten online) until now. Alas, not even Itagaki is perfect. Perhaps all will be forgiven when DOA5 looks like the DOA4 end movies...
