Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement, Pre-, & Post-Release Discussion Thread


Using No Man Sky is a poor example because it misunderstands why it caught shit in the first place. The reason why people were unhappy with No Man Sky is because the marketing surrounding the game made promises about what kind of game it was. It was going to be the ultimate space game in which you ...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement, Pre-, & Post-Release Discussion Thread


I hate to break it to you, but a LOT of Dragon Ball games suffer from this problem. The only ones I can think of that don't are the Legacy of Goku trilogy, the Xenoverse duology, Kakarot, & any of the games that are like them, which ain't a ton. The first 3 games in this series were also like this ...

How many characters a player controls is irrelevant to how many players the game is meant to be played with.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement, Pre-, & Post-Release Discussion Thread

I can't speak for anyone else, I'll just speak for me.

The second I saw the trailer interview which talked about Sparking!'s Single Player modes, I should have listened to my gut and cancel my preorder.

This game has the same 'problem' that FighterZ had for me. There is almost zero single player ...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread

People hoping for surprises should temper their expectations by a LOT.

We have confirmed 182 characters. And based on calculations that some people performed, the chances of getting a character we do not know (for us who saw the leaks and the official reveals) are slim to none.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread

My only fear is that all major characters are in the base game, which reduces the chances of DLC selling well. I mean, let's not kid ourselves. Cooler's crew won't sell as well as a GT Gogeta pack. Which makes me fear that the game is not intended to go for a long while.

Would love to be wrong, but ...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread

Game cover has been leaked/revealed.

"Over 180 characters", which basically confirms the 182 number.

That's our roster, folks. Tremendous number, even if you take out the Gokus, Gohans and Vegetas.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread




How frequently should we expect the DLC to likely release?

I really hope we don't have to wait till 2026 just play characters like base form Garlic Jr who should've been in the base roster


For the first season pass I expect a monthly frequency starting in December.
After that I would ...

Awesome news but imagine the sheer hype when we think we're done and more cells are added to the grid, we've been robbed today.

And it's epic to have all this but it's hard not to focus on some of the strange omissions


Honestly, as a 'please show me as few Saiyans as possible because they're ...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread


I'd rather have a beefy GT DLC later than an half-assed coverage just with the Super Saiyan 4 characters now. Cuz I want a GT kid Goku and GT Vegeta that can transform instead of just having them separate (and I doubt DLC forms will be retroactively added to base game characters as in-game ...

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero has just 26 spots on the roster left to fill before the Dragon Ball fighting game comes out in October. These open slots remain after the new Buu Saga trailer just confirmed several more characters with Dragon Ball fans expecting several more trailers like that one to ...

19. Shin (We saw him in one screen shot)


Shin not being included in yesterday's trailer makes zero sense. I'm not sure if they did it because he doesn't fight anyone in the anime besides getting bitch-slapped by Boo? But in that case, Cui shouldn't be included as well since he doesn't *really ...

Burter looks like his head is three times bigger than Ginyu's in the char select screen. XD

It'll be awesome if the PC community makes mods for the character select screen.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread


Her does NOT mention GT or original DB. Which means they either are keeping representation from those two series a secret, or there are no DB(GT) characters at base roster.


It doesn't necessarily mean they're not in the roster, just that the story mode isn't including them. We already know Kid ...

Sounds like the character select screen is here to stay. Enjoy it starting with 20 Gokus and Vegetas, everyone.

That said, Furutani (I keep thinking of futanari) said that there will be 'filters' to help players better navigate it.

Here is some gameplay with some new characters.

I really really hope the selection screen for characters won't be like we have seen so far in these gameplay videos... that would be the WORST selection screen EVER.


I'm in the minority who loves it ...
