"Jump Force" Official Discussion Thread

[MKCSTEALTH]

I'm honestly cool with them taking from Xenoverse and integrating it into this new iteration. Maybe they can even polish the formula and make it even better for the next full Dragonball game release.

Hope the character creator has some decent variety. I've noticed female Saiyan armor as well as Android 18's hair. Maybe i'll be able to make my Xenoverse 2 OC if they keep in the Gine hair

Kane and Galena look cool, I wouldnt mind them being intergrated into Xenoverse

[Son Dragon]

I'm honestly just laughing at how much this has taken from Xenoverse at this point. It's like the epitome of 'Hey, can I copy your homework?'/'Sure, just change it a little so nobody notices'. I'm fine with it really though. I just hope the RNG isn't as god-awful as Xenoverse's...

Not sure how to feel about Kane and Galena being playable though. Weren't they originally listed as being non-playable? I figured at most we fought against them, but actually being playable...it definitely makes them all the more Towa/Mira-ish.

Eh, it's honestly better this way. Remember when we had to wait until DLC before playing as Towa and Mira in XV1?

Beware the RNG. It's code for someone on the project wants micro transactions.

Interestingly about the borrowing I think Xenoverse did it first. Towa, Mira, and Future Trunks are from Dragon Ball Online. Supreme Kai of Time, Fuu and some of the main characters designs inside Dragon Ball Fusion are concepts from DBO as well.

The company behind Xenoverse, Dimps, also created Super Dragon Ball Heroes whose main character is actually a miniature version of the Hero from Dragon Ball Ultimate Tenkaichi. Demographic & Mechikabura are original though.

But really with what Dragon Ball Games have gotten so far post DBO I like Android 21 & Shallot, Sealas and Galena the best. Chronoa also has a special place in my heart. But out of everyone Android 21 is probably the most developed.

As someone whose had to put up with Mortal Kombat giving me fightable opponents I cant play as who were previously playable (looking at you, Rain and Baraka), Demigra in XV1 and Final Form Mira in XV2, I have grown extremely tired of non-playable boss characters. I always feel they should be the reward for finishing story, even if they need nerfing to be balanced, or buffing to feel like a final threat, but thats simple enough.

Kane and Galena seem like two of the coolest things about this game for me, whats their deal? I would hate to not be able to play as them.

[ruler9871]

I hope Allen Walker, Lenalee, Medaka, Dio Brando, Bakugo, Hiei, Hades, Gintoki and Kagura all get in.

[Kanassa]

New Trailer

[DarkPrince_92]

YES. Also, Kaiba, Kuwabara, Doflamingo, Arale, Killua and the Ant King. If I had to pick some more.

[Lord Frieza]

Ok this is gonna be pure bitching but I've just gotta get this off my chest.

WHY THE #@$£ ARE WE HAVEING THE EXACT SAME EFFECTS ON ALL THE CHARACTERS TURNED INTO EVIL MINIONS!!!!

Let me explain, back in One Peice Pirate Warriors 2"s story mode Blackbeard gets a hold of a device that lets him mind control people. Said people get a purple aura and red eyes.


Then in Xenoverse we get...


Xenoverse 2

But thankfully at least some minor changes...


And in Jump Force, going by the trailers it's dark aura and red eyes again.

Because its the easiest trope you can do in a video game lol. Fighterz story definitely deserves criticism but Android 16's motivation for example was interesting. Why bother thinking of reasons characters may have to act evil when you can just mind control them haha.

[Gyt Kaliba]

If anyone is interested, it looks like the Beta tests are back on.



Sadly I won't get to partake in any of these, as the one going on now I'm already doing other things, tomorrow is Kingdom Hearts III release day so, yeah, no beta playing is gonna happen then, and I work on the February 2nd one, sooo...yeah. Ah well, it's almost time for the game to come out soon anyway, and I did get to mess with a little bit of the first beta.

[Rinsankajugin]

JOTARO AND DIO CONFIRMED!

[Gyt Kaliba]

Figured it was only a matter of time before DIO got fully confirmed, nice!

I'm curious what's being said in the section about Light Yagami though. The last trailer almost seemed to imply that the Jump Force (or at least Goku) thought he was on their side...which is...going to be awkwardly hilarious for all of us playing the game who know what Light's actually like.

The blurb at the bottom is just saying the usual "Is he a friend or foe?" thing that they keep saying. It also says that Light wants to be the god of the new world. Pretty sure that his series description, but I wonder if it's also alluding to the game's story...

Yeah, the 'god of the new world' was his whole MO in his series proper. I did see someone suggest that maybe he was going to be an unplayable 'final boss' for us in the game, which given that we have the cubes and the Onyx book thing that powers up characters...I could almost see it. I wouldn't put it past Light to be after both, use both on himself, and be given some new power (or maybe even a new form, ala DIO in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven - if that's the case, I hope they have Obata design it at least) and we actually have to deal with him directly.

[Lord Frieza]

Good to see Dio make the cut, you can never have enough villains. I'd almost blissfully forgotten that Light was in this game. Please let him be a boss in the game, just so I can punch him repeatedly in the face.

[ruler9871]

JOTARO AND DIO CONFIRMED!

Its about time lmao.

[ZeroNeonix]

You know, because of Light's notebook, he could be stringing everyone along. He could be the one who decides the fates of the combatants, writing that one or another dies in battle. The playable characters would essentially be his puppets to do with as he wishes.

He's gonna make us his Prophet.

What if Light somehow steals Goku's body and becomes an alternative Goku Black lol? (Tvtropes fan theory)

[miguelnuva1]

As much as I love Light as a Villian I would love if my OC could kick his ass.

Still waiting on Medaka now and maybe transformations for the OC hopefully.
