Dragon Ball FighterZ - Characters, Specials, and Stages Discussion

I do love how some people can get really serious when talking about the power levels in Dragonball Z but in fighting games they are like screw it I just want to have fun, give me Hercule beating up Beerus.

I can remember stumbling into a forum for some of the older DBZ games and seeing people argue about how power levels should be represented in the game. It was a stupid idea then, it is a stupid idea now. If a Dragon Ball Z game ever took power levels into consideration in the main mode (not some silly diversion), it would either ruin the cast, or break the game. In general, it would be completely idiotic game design.
 
If this game does really well hopefully they can fit it into the budget for the sequel to bring back assist characters.
In a 3v3 MvC style game the characters all double as assists, it's not possible unless you go down to 2v2 or 1v1. (MvC:I is basically having the gems function as assists, for example.)

If they do get a sequel next-gen I'd much rather them go bigger and do a SJ crossover game or something, since they can just up-port DBZ then.
 
I like all the assist characters in the 3ds game

=(

I'd rather not.

Include ones that fit like Sorbet and just make the interesting ones playable.

I hate assists only characters.

They could have it so you could replace some of your teammate's assist abilities with an assist character, while still keeping the teams 3v3.
 
Sighs I can imagine how fucking cheap the unlimited type mode in this game will be.

I'm already having thoughts dance in my head at what boss battles could be like in that kind of unlimited survival mode. 3 vs. 1 of the likes of

Unlimited Gold-Freeza
Unlimited Blue Goku with Kaioken
Unlimited Rose Black
Unlimited Beerus
etc...

I'd rather not, with assist only characters we will probably never see someone like Bulma playable, without them, then Arcsys might just be crazy enough to give us some cool, creative, and unexpected characters.
 
Dudes not expecting there to be 2 Gohans will be disappointed. Yall know how this works.
Yeah I'm predcting Teen Gohan, Adult Gohan, Goku, SSJBlue Goku, Vegeta, and SSJJBlue Vegeta on the roster. : \ The later to me is stupid now that Super uses the blue forms with the normal clothes.

Exactly.

They're never gonna bother they're gonna leave all the cool characters as assists while giving us 30 more playable saiyans. Awesome.

I wonder if they will have costumes to have their normal clothes.

I just wish they had come with a solution to have Goku's sign not switch sides along with him... it triggers me so hard. Because they could have just removed the sign and nobody would care. =(

I'm expecting all of them too on day 1 in the base game. Definitely.
 
I appreciate Bandai Namco for getting this right. Well sort of. They mislabeled SSJ2 as SSJ.

That's the secret Kagari.

There's no super saiyan 2. This is just super saiyan Gohan at full power.

"SSJ 2" had no reason to ever be a thing. Makes ssj1 obsolete but since ssj1 was more iconic they ended up making ssj2 obsolete so now it's used in completely random ways that make 0 sense.

Blurgh.
 
Yes, those are delay based. Some of the best delay based fighting game netplay I've played personally, but still not as good as rollback can be. It's biggest problem has always been a lower number of active players compared to competition, and those that are active don't care about ranked which can turn some off.

They've shown no signs of going for rollback before, so it's probably unlikely that they will now, but anything is possible I guess.

Bleh, I consider Guilty Gear on console unplayable online. I sincerely hope they either vastly improve their netcode or go for a rollback based netcode.
 
"Nobody will play a game without Avengers, anime filth"

fuck, that got me
 
I collected the dragonballs and made a wish

Me: "I wish there is no frakking random loot in this game like Xenoverse!"
Dragon: "Wish granted!"
Me: "Hell yes!!"

oh pretty please no random loot. So far previews looking good
 
I just thought, powerup standoffs are going to be a thing aren't they? xD I can just imagine that in a tournament. Crowd would probably love it xD
 
You mean beam struggles? Those won't be in.

No, he means if both players feel like powering up (charging their ki up) all the way to 7 bars.

To ensure sickness.

Also, may I know why they won't let good players record good gameplay yet IGN's garbage is fine ?

Probably because it's IGN, a major news outlet who got a pre-arranged time block, while they don't want randoms touching their setups.

Yeah that's weird, people like Max should be allowed to get direct capture footage.
 
Really hope GT gets some love in this game. Now they probably wont waste the spot on Kid Goku but I have a better idea than that. I would really like to see either one of Goku's variant colors be his Blue gi from GT or a full on skin for him with it.

Id rather see Blue Super Sayin than SSJ4 but I would still be excited to see it in the game. I definitely dont need Baby in the game lol. Black from Super better be in though, in one form or another. He can totally be a skin, but Id prefer him to be a skin for Vegito than Goku.

Also a little surprised the game doesnt have the Super moniker instead of Z. I mean I know DBZ is a much more widely known brand than DB Super, but naming the game after the new series would bring in more attention to it. Plus they could focus on Super's storylines instead of retreading old ground again. The answer is obvious but its still something ive been wondering. Kinda like when Naruto added Shipunden to its title the games followed suit.
