Has there been any advances in the translation of the timeline or did people just lose interest? I remember there being a few entries that weren't quite fully translated, and just general stuff missing.

I was wondering, who are these? Have they any relation with Akkuman? What about their abilities? I haven't found any info on those.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

I might be mistaken, but I don't believe those character models are being used in the current game yet.

From testing. There is also a screenshot of a player using the Genki Dama fighting against Cell.

The first was what I was talking about. This is the best quality I could find, sorry. The second was posted more recently on either the Korea DBO website or facebook talking about things to come.

If I had to guess, those demons will come with the next big patch that will have the map featuring Uranai Baba which will be coming soon.

Holy shit, Genki-Dama! :D I've seen again this Cell pic in the past, but some said that it was fake, and it seems fake to me too.

There is no genkidama? Because as there are loading screen times, there is one with battle tip to do a combo which end with attack that looks like genkidama.

Nope, no Genki-Dama yet. What you saw should be just a ki attack.

Nexon should handle the US release if there is ever one.

Though I have lost a quite amount of interest in this game since I hear its a grind fest and I left another franchise backed mmo because of that fact(Digimon Battle Online).

Its part of a HTB skill. It very well could be a miniature Genki Dama that is used in the attack, or it could just be a very similar looking technique...kind of like when Gotenks Buu formed the ki ball before Goku cut him in half with the Kienzan. Regardless, the technique isn't available to be used on its own yet.

New files added into the game. IMO though, the things that look like Cell aren't THE Cell. Even on the texture file, the shapes and colors don't match manga Cell.

I'm guessing they'll have little Cell clones, like Android 8000-19000.

Yeah they do look like Cell Clones, fun times.
Also the way Baba's crystal ball is displayed looks like she has some sort of weird looking bra. *shivers*

So I guess there is going to be a time travelling quest to early Dragon Ball days by the looks of things. That does look like early DB Goku, Kurilin and Bacterian.
