"Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

Think Raditz and Nappa are in? They're relics of the past, but still classic characters who make it into like every DBZ Fighter.
and I like Raditz. I'd main him.

Nappa has actually been in more fighting games than Raditz. I think Raditz did not appear in any fighting games until Budokai 1.

They each appeared in one fighting game prior to Budokai 1. (Raditz appeared in Gekito Tenkaichi Budokai. Nappa in The Legend. He also appeared in Legendary Super Warriors, if you count that as a fighting game. I don't think a lot of people would.) They've appeared at pretty much the same rate since then.

I hope that this game is stacked fairly Super heavy. Prior to Budokai, the Butoden games would frequently ditch the previous arcs characters to focus on the new forms of the protagonists and the new antogonists. Why not include Shisami and Tagoma over Dodoria and Zarbon? I'll take some Zamasu, ToP combatants, and GoDs over various henchmen and most of the old movie villains. I'd like for Pre-Z to get some love, too.

This easily looks better than every game released since 2008 and will probably be the most fun I've had with a Dragon Ball game since Budokai 3! Probably even more so since I love fighting games and the FGC.

I trust that gameplay wise this game is going to deliver. If anything the only things I hope for are aesthetic. meaning, I hope that they add more costumes.. though I know ASW is more so known for the 20 different palette colors as opposed to actual attire. I just also Really want some kick ass music! BlazBlu's sound track is awesome.

Just imagine Vegeta going SSJ to a bgm as dope as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StjxfSnwiVg

Yeah, and I like Guilty Gear music even better as it is heavier. That's the Japanese rock music that I miss from modern anime - would love this as Vegeta's theme : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bNhzvei1N4

Would you have preferred if Freeza fused with the Universe?

Would you be surprised if I said: FUCK YEAH!

It made better sense in the context of the movie but it's still an awesome move, lol.

I'd prefer a more even distribution of characters. There are definitely some Super characters I want to see in it though

[FortuneSSJ]

That new FT Trunks screenshot looks awesome but I need to see the whole sequence, because for now that doesn't make much sense.

It made sense in the Movie because he was fighting a robot. Now make a character like Goku or Buu explode after cut them, not really.

I dont see hpw this game is on consoles with such terrible graphics....it looks like a suped up version of the 3DS in that Trunks screenshot.

[ShadowBardock89]

I had to check the neogaf forum about this game. I nearly died laughing at the hype from the thread. It reminds me of MvC3's hype from back in the day.
Just think, what we've seen is ONLY 20% of the game. 20%! I imagine the graphics might be improved down the line, right?

I think they'll rather improve gameplay and put in more characters rather than that.

[MisteryOne]

Late to the party, but, while it was predictable, I don't like Z Trunks at all. His Super outfit is way better. Seriously, I still don't understand why they use Z as a focus in a game nowadays. Give me ROF outfits for Goku and Vegeta and the new ones for Trunks and 17/18 (if they are in the game, pretty sure 18 will) so the game will feel more fresh!

I agree about the explosion being pretty much nonsensical.

Have you watched any of the gameplay videos? Because it really sounds like you're talking out of your ass.

And the recent comments about the "Trunks explosion not making sense"..are you guys fucking kidding me? Have you ever played a fighting game before?


I apologize if I sound rude but sometimes the ridiculous whining over the most trivial things here can get so insufferable.

[VegettoEX]

I agree 150% with the sentiment. This seems like such a transparent "this game isn't intended for me, so I'm going to find anything and everything to tear apart, because that's how I'll feel better about myself as I read other people's excitement that I feel excluded from" tactic.

There is no logical way you can be self-consistent with yourself complaining about Trunks' technique here and be OK with literally any other special technique used by any other character at any other point in any previous video game, Dragon Ball or otherwise.

It's a cool move referencing a cool scene with a cool character. That's all there is to it. Sometimes a cool thing is just a cool thing.

I'm not sure if anyone has read the interview that Siliconera posted with Tomoko Hiroki, but here it is:

If anyone is keeping track, Mercenary Tao is deconfirmed.
