Maybe they'll us the same plane - person switching as AK

[moozooh]

I heard that for each point milestone you reach, the Element Daughters take off bits of clothing.

I'm sure that's what dress system is!

[Akeru99]

Being that the new character designer is Nagi Ryou (Ar Tonelico character designer),
I'm expecting dresses that disintegrate as you progress through the game

Suddenly, really excited for this. I liked Ar tonelico III enough to Platinum it.

Yeah, I'm at least excited for that one. I kinda like this guy's artwork. Even if it'll "turn into an all-out chick fight", like MR_Soren said, it would at least be nice to look at.

[Udderdude]

Also,

Don't forget the naked magical change sequence while using a hyper.

This was the only prediction that ended up being true .. >_>

[TrevHead (TVR)]

Even though this wont be coming to the 360 atleast it'll give us something to look forward to when the next console gen is in full swing. And the longer wait will make PCB owners happy

No, that's the undress system. The 'dress system' is when they add clothing for every death that occurs. And people are going to be in for a surprise, as Yagawa is programming this, so expect scoring and suicide balancing in the style of the Battle series. Either that, or this will be Cave's version of Night Raid. (￣▽￣)

The elemental dolls come back as the actual ships and fly through. Using special power ups, you can increase the speed and power of the ship, which in turn removes articles of clothing.
Also, clothes give special power ups like speed, power, shot, all that shit.
Shmup of the year 2012.

If it has the same type of bosses as DFK, it could do Crimson Clover milking only you destroy parts of the dress for points

[NOAH]

SDOJ is a vertical danmaku shooter with sound by Manabu Namiki.

Is this confirmed? If so, I hope that Namiki doesn't collaborate with anyone else. His best soundtracks to me happen to be those without anyone else credited.

Regarding the screen/scrolling orientation, does anyone think the rotated romanji title in the Cave announcement is significant at all in that regard?

[Estebang]

Quite likely the music will be credited to Basiscape, which includes people other than Namiki. Not that they haven't turned out some amazing OSTs together--Deathsmiles II has my third favorite Cave soundtrack behind DOJ and Ketsui.

[Formless God]

Nagi Ryou

Somehow, seeing this name along with something like "Dress System" makes me feel uneasy as all hell. I fear it might be focusing more on the fanservice/anniemay style this time, because they decided to use -him- of all people. But we'll see.
On the bright side,

Dress System

Hibachi purgestripping after every phase, and TLB music is hymmnos

[FNG83]

Whats up guys! First time poster, I might go on Friday or Sunday.

[Illyrian]

I'm inexorably reminded of Final Fantasy X-2.

Think about it. We have a sequel to a well-recieved game with a Dress System and prsumably more focus on the female characters, and there's a wonky suffix added to the title rather than a whole new game.

Please please don't screw this up and add a massage minigame, CAVE...

As if a massage minigame, if included, wouldn't be beloved by perverted fans all over the world.

WTB concurrent iPod/iPad release of the new game.

Either way this is awesome news for people with access to a cab/supergun!

[O. Van Bruce]

- Ships are now transformers that become lolis/mango girls

- Blue ship (ample shot type) will be the busty and slutty onee-sama type with a cynical personality a la Casper.

- Green Helicopter will be the classic short haired and quiet MeganeKko

- Red Fighter will be the classic flat-chested tsundere loli with a simple-minded personality

- Blue and Red will bitch each other all the time...

- Hibachi will be a misterious and utterly frightenning classic loli a la Flandre

....

Dress system will be when they transform into lolis to unleash special powers...

[NzzpNzzp]

inb4 type-c gets like 8 different dresses and you're not even allowed to use any of them in fights.

The WiiU is released this year. We could see a port before the end of the year, depending on how well it does in Japanese arcades.

[AuraDRGN]

I bet it's another Visual Novel...

It's about the Deathsmiles and DaiOuJou loli's courting each other's bi-sexual tendencies before they all lose their virginities to each other in a witch/robot orgy. If you do a pad motion just as Shotia shoves a pumpkin up Windia's ass a digitised pic of Ikeda appears in the window in the background with blood spurting out of his nose.

then we need more manly men than loli girls otherwise a f*-king series of hen*** will came out made by pevert artists

[BrightSuzaku]

And here I was, hoping for a Type-B green helicopter scarf. Wupwupwup. Not happening, it seems! Hahaha, it was a silly idea in the first place, but, amazingly, not silly enough for actual implementation in a game.

Dammit, get these girls out of Dodonpachi, already! I came for the spaceshi- WRONG GENRE. I swear, they're in almost every game genre, nowadays. I enjoyed shooting them in DFK, I won't lie.

[Moniker]

There, that's better.

[Estebang]

Dress system is probably a fancy name for whatever the new "shot/laser/expert", etc. ship selection options are. There might be just one copilot who wears different clothes.

[third_strike]

Cute girls outsell space ships? Confirmed.

I'm a bit disappointed that the DDP series is going to turn into an all-out chick fight. I've got no problems with girls in shoot-em-ups, but DDP was always about space ships and helicopters for me. I'd prefer the girls have their own series. Whatever it takes to make money though. I'd prefer lolis and profit over their arcade division shutting down.

This might be Cave's last arcade game, maybe the DDP name is just being slapped on so they can exit the market the same way they entered it. If that's the case, they may as well stuff it full of ridiculous over-the-top nudity to match the other elements in the games.

I mean, that's probably what they've wanted to do all along.

Well. with lucky this game will not feature a trap loli.

I can't hope good things coming from this guy. This will be the gayest DDP ever.

[Gus]

I'll never understand why people fetishize spaceships and helicoptors so much.

[Skykid]

I'll never understand why people fetishize spaceships and helicoptors so much.

It's not a fetish, it's a preference of theme and style.

[z0mbie90]

I'll never understand why people fetishize spaceships and helicoptors so much.

I never understand why people like flying girls and boys in short skirts.

[EPS21]

I for one approve of Cave's "gayest" dodonpachi yet. I hope they will all be traps to question everyone's sexuality!

[Estebang]

Well, Mamoru-kun was clearly meant to appeal to shota fetishists.

[dunpeal2064]

Whats up guys! First time poster, I might go on Friday or Sunday.

I hope you bring back good news, and perhaps even some video!

Very curious to see what Cave has in store with this next release. Some truely hilarious predictions as to what may appear in this game.

[hzt]

i hope it has a princess in it

princesses are fucking raw

[moh]

I WANT THIS TO GET A SATURN PORT




...the saturn got stiffed when it came to the 'pachi series >_>

[Limbrooke]

This will be the gayest DDP ever.

A wise man once said:

Code: Select all

...that spider boss in the dog sucking lemon...

Should be interesting to see how it compares to Daifukkatsu, although I too am perhaps skeptical about the character designer.

[third_strike]

Gayest = Afrescalhado = cheio de papagaiada. Don't misunderstand me, I do not know how to write it in English.

Code: Select all

...that spider boss is the dog sucking lemon...

Fixed.
I know my English is bad, I never studied in a English class.
Now wonder If things like this (http://www.cave-stg.com/forum/index.php?topic=1204.0) is hard to understand, it will be 3x harder to me.
