Hidden goof rewards

Some of the game’s secrets shown in the achievements list are actually goof rewards. These vary from Loss Streaks to Rank Demoting.

Jump over cars in Gambler’s Paradise stage

To jump over the cars in the Gambler’s Paradise stage, just use a mid-kick counter when the car is about to hit you.

Easy wins with Jann Lee

First, try to land a critical punch or kick to the enemy’s head. If not accomplished, make use of quick countering or blocking to land a firm blow. Then when your enemy is hit off balance for a few seconds, keep throwing random critical blows to the head region mainly, and mix it up slightly to the body and legs. If you can do this and include fast combos in between your rhythm, you should be able to keep the enemy off the ground desperate for making successful blows. You should be able to do this technique with simple combos. Make sure that your rhythm is broken, meaning attack at different times without staying in a similar pattern and keeping your blows mostly critical. If you can do this a lot, you should also be able to switch it up with fast combos making it almost impossible for your opponent to counter. Remember to execute critical blows to the head mainly, mixed with fast combos and quick blows to the body. Keep your rhythm broken so it is impossible to counter (no repetition or repeating the speed of blows), and make sure to keep your guard up. Do not allow the enemy to hit you unexpectedly, or they may confuse you with the same trick. Try to at least counter when you lose balance in the match.

Halo reference

Select Spartan-458 and play on the Gambler’s Paradise stage. During the match, a Warthog with Marines will appear on the road.

Tag moves

    Switch-attack: Press LT + RT + Forward + Y or B
    Tag-ground move: Press LT + RT + Up + Y + B

Reversals strategy

It is possible to reverse a:

    Low attack by pressing Down/Away + X.
    Mid-level punch by pressing Away + X.
    Mid-level kick by pressing Forward + X.
    High attack or jumping attack by pressing Up/Away + X.

Do not rely on just reversals. In prior games in the series, you could count on a fair percentage of your damage coming from reversals, however their impact has been somewhat slimmed down in Dead Or Alive 4 . They do less damage than before; use them more as an effective stop to your opponent’s attacks, as opposed to the primary source of your own damage dealing.

If you’re reversal timing seems off, it is probably because you have roughly half the time available to successfully counter an attack as you did before. There is just a fraction of a second now to pull off a reversal. Use Sparring mode to practice your reversal timing if you are having trouble with it.

A successful reversal paralyzes your opponent. They are unable to do anything for a second or two, making them vulnerable to ground attacks. Make sure you have your character’s ground specific attacks (for example, Jann Lee’s stomp) memorized so you can take full advantage of the opportunity.

Context-sensitivity strategy

Use the environments to your advantage by not just knocking someone through a window or down a staircase, but also by employing context-sensitive actions. For example, you can leap over a barrier towards an opponent and lay down a special attack, use special acrobatic moves off of walls, and context-sensitive throws near hillsides and stairways. You need to practice extensively with your favorite characters to make good and strategic use of these moves, but they are worth the extra effort.

Patterns strategy

Recognizing patterns does a lot for you. Online players tend to fall in love with specific combos, which can be thwarted at the beginning by beating them to the punch (or kick), or countered at the end with a reversal since the last move can usually be predicted.

Make sure to mix things up as much as possible. Remember, many combos start out the same but can end very differently. Try to make sure you change up not only your combos, but the ends of each combo to keep your enemy on their toes.

Separate entities strategy

Each fighter offers their own unique style. Do not think that just because you are dominant with Bayman that you will find equal success with Bass (or Spartan-458, for that matter). Treat each character as separate entities and you will find more success.

Sparring strategy

Use Sparring mode to learn each characters strengths and weaknesses, and master their litany of combos. You can choose any stage you have unlocked and spar against any character you want, but you can also set specific actions for your opponent to undertake and even select which stance they use. You can also go through each combo one by one, setting the game up so it ticks each combo and move off the list as you successfully complete it.
