Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

My wishlist for a hypothetical Season 2 pack...

[spoiler]Videl
Gogeta (he can use his SSJ4 form as his ultimate attack)
Dr Gero
Janemba
Android 13 (he can have a quick kick-boxing fighting style)
Omega Shenron
Kefla
Jiren[/spoiler]

This is by far the best dragonball Z game ever made & definitely the most fun fighting game released in a while. Playing this with friends is an absolute blast, your heart starts racing so fast when it comes down to the end its stupid. We played a lot of MvC2 back in the day and it was very reminiscent of that. I'm glad ArcSys proved a bunch of people in this thread wrong and didn't cave to the "100 characters who all play the same".

p.s - cell is broken beyond belief.

I got back into this game recently, it's still fun as hell. Weirdly enough, my first session I did a bunch of online ranked matches and did quite well. The second session I got matched against a bunch of Supreme Kais (I've only just hit Super Saiyan 2) and got bodied hard. Makes sense; by that point, it's all Gohans, Goku Blacks and Bardocks (with Vegeta on anchor, natch) and here's me using my team of Freeza, Hit and Goku, characters who have no synergy and no crazy blockstrings, but I like 'em cause they're fun.

I think Freeza's rare enough online and has enough tools that I can usually bullshit a win with him doing the work on point. Not to mention his 2H is one of the best thanks to that patch. Try out more underused characters, kids.

It happens to the best of us.. Hopefully you didnt bombard him with an essay as to why he "sucks" even though he just beat you three times. That's Scrub Culture at its finest. Lose then complain instead of just getting better.

I'm not attacking you by the way. Just trying to encourage a better attitude towards what could be called embarrassing defeats.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

I'll be glad when the next DLC characters are shown.

Nah, but I almost did that against a guy who beat me once. Didn't rematch. Then the game actually set us up again. I accept because I know I can beat the guy. He beats me twice in a row. Next game, I actually figured his gameplan out and was about to beat him then he dropped....

I actually followed up my 0-3 game with a really good set (3-1) against a guy with much higher than BP with me. Felt great. Trying to keep my W/L above 50 percent.

their personality effects their attack strategy, as we saw in the case by simply comparing vegito to gogeta.

Vegito clowned around against Buu, Gogeta on the other hand straight up murdered Janemba without hesitation
And how does personality affect gameplay in any way?
The Dragonball franchise post-SSJ is nothing but shooting energy beams/balls and punching dudes through mountains. Personality is what differentiates a distinct way in how they do this. Ken, Ryu, Akuma, and Sakura all share the same three special attacks. But their established personalities dictate how they function and in many ways how they look visually.

Regardless of the reasons why Gogeta and Vegetto have very differently portrayed attacks and behaviors, they do have them. And it through this that they wouldn't just be the same character.

Also, doesn't one of them have a Big Bang Kamehameha and the other a Final Kamehameha?

Does anyone know what means when a player gets a star on their avatar during the party matches?
Example: Look at Hit avatar here - https://youtu.be/fpKcUllcRmg?t=51.

In this battle that player already started with that orange star, but sometimes one of the players gets it during the battle.
A world without Dragon Ball is just meh.

Pretty sure that's highlighting your own character. Don't know about other players getting it, maybe after your character is defeated it chooses who's playing?

My season 2 wishlist:

Muten Roshi (lots of move choices)
Videl (Great Saiyaman 2)
Janemba (wacky style)
SS4 Gogeta (because Gogeta needs to happen)
Baby (best GT villain)
Bojack (another brute character like Broly)
Dabura (sword and spit)
Tao Pai Pai (he’s cool)

Note that I still haven’t bought any DLC characters yet. The ones released so far don’t interest me in the slightest. I am, however, really thinking about getting Base Goku/Vegeta.
Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.

60.

Rest in peace.

So who would be down for a 4th story campaign for just the dlc characters and a certain character that only shows up in cutscences?

Imagine the Soul wakes up linked to Bulma and gives her the strength to fight against the clones. While she's searching for Goku and the others she keeps running into, fighting and recruiting the DLC characters to go up against 21.

Hey if the keep giving Bulma a model in these fighting games, make her a fighter.
