decision making time for steam release.


Can a custom character learn wolf fang fist?

I haven't seen any CaCs using wolf fang fist but I don't see why they couldn't -- most skills from the original characters CaCs can use so... WFF should be usable.

did they give a reason why you couldnt choose a normal Buu or a tall Buu like in the show? only reason why i didnt pick a Buu race was because of that and chose to be saiyan #42342525.

The custom characters are based on the DBO (Dragon Ball Online) lore where Fat Buu found a porn mag and created the female Buu based on the women in the mag and he and the female Buu gave birth to the Buu race -- hence it's only fat male Buus or skinny female Buus. Which is basically following AT's (Akira Toriyama) creative vision.
 
No idea. Just looked up synonyms to cold and that was one that stuck out haha.
Usually means a girl who doesn't put out
Lashley told it for me but yeah, it means something completely different over here. It's like when Hasbro called a Transformer 'Spastic' which is a derogatory term for the disabled in the UK.

Similar to Destiny in a way?
Except that you can shout and interact with players easier and make them join teams from it.

I'm not a fan of Buu race, but female Buu is cute, so I think that'll be my custom character. Too bad about transformations.

Oh well, I'll probably just use preset characters on PVP (which is what I'm more interested in) anyway

I'm loving this so far. Haven't played a dbz game since like ultimate tenkaichi way back when it came out. I'm always a little bummed when they retcon characters out like
Yajarobi
in the Vegeta section. But it seems like its gonna be a pretty decently long game. I'm already fighting the ginu force and it seems really neat. I'd love it if the new characters became a part of cannon. Anyone happen to know if that's happening.
 

AGE 791
Mister Buu and Missus Buu conceive a child through “booby-booby”. This marks the birth of the Majin race.
Buu and his wife remember the term “booby-booby” from reading “Bob and Margaret’s Forbidden Games”. They tear off many pieces from various parts of their body and mix them together in “booby-booby”. By firing a Love-Love Beam, they birth life into the dumpling-shaped pieces. From that moment on, Buu’s descendants were recognized world-wide as the "Majin" race.

What in the hell

Well, I don't think AT (Akira Toriyama) is going to be implementing Towa, Mira, or Demigra in anything else (unless fans really take to them, I guess) but it's worth noting that much of this game's story elements and characters are based on DBO which is part of AT's creative vision of what the DB world is like after Z. So, in essence, you could consider this game somewhat canon but AT generally doesn't confirm whether something is canon these days so fans tend to make up their own minds.

Log out and login to the actual online server with real people. You're looking at NPCs.

Huh, guess I've been playing offline too. I knew these guys were NPCs. So you're telling me this game also has actual players in the city? That's awesome if true! I was happy just staring at the NPCs

Tried a PvP match got owned . Only reason I didn't die fast was because I used SSJ4 Vegita

Also they banned my name (character), Riddick

I preordered but havent seen SSJ4 Vegita. Guess i need to get further along in my story? I've just barely gotten past the
Saiyan saga on Earth

Loving this game so far folks!

I've made it to the point where I can join online lobbies! Such a blast!

I was having trouble in the single player campaign at first cause I didnt boost my attributes. LOL! After I did that I got through the fights no problem

Right now my favorite part of this game is every time i start it up, im greeted with. CHA-LA HEAD CHA-LA!

I probably jumped up out of my seat and started clapping right there. Yeah I was seduced right there at the start!

Fucking shit this game is hard
I'm at Frieza and I don't like to use items and so on. But looks impossible. It's 4-5 fights straight and I'm always losing at the last one
 

Watch Da Birdie

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet

Here's something neat I realized, the porn in question is "Bob and Margaret", the same book that Master Roshi had Goku and Krillin read from back in Dragon Ball during their training.

Based on the excerpt they read from, it's also implied to be some really messed up brother-sister shit. :/

I hope there are some surprises to go with it.

There's data for two other Shenron dudes from GT I think found, so probably them.

They're really minor, but I'd love to see Zarbon and Dodoria added through DLC since I consider them the biggest misses.
 
it's due to the pointless scene blocking
THEY EVEN BLOCKED SOME MENUS AND INTRO!
-_- that amount of blocking is too much
I get you want to prevent spoilers, but seriously the amount of stuff blocked is stupid.
Hopefully I can still screenshot the characters I make because otherwise cell phone photos from me.

Pq has RNG......sometimes you get the moves... Sometimes you don't.

Do you know if your ranking in a PQ (Z, S, etc.) affects what loot you get? That was my assumption last night as I was farming for Piccolo's turban. If not, then that gets less stressful!

blocking spoilers... what exactly is there to spoil for most if not all of us who know the DBZ universe?

I've found that usually when I run into a wall like that I go and do some parrellel missions and level up a bit before I go back to the time stuff.

Wait till you get to Cell. lol. Be sure to master charge attacks that breaks guards.

I can't believe there's no shareplay OR remote play on this game. I hope this doesn't become a tend.

Yes, It's strange. I only have seen it recently from Japanese developers. This and then also Yakuza Ishin had almost everything blocked until the main story was completed.
