I'm pretty sure that DBF news was from Weekly Jump, not V-Jump.

Anyways, I am pretty excite for what'll appear in V-Jump, whether it be Xenoverse, Heroes, Fusions, Dokkan or Zenkai Battle news.

We shouldn't simply assume Slaythe is right because he's seemingly wrong about changing clothes colors.
Unfortunately, Namekians and Earthlings have nothing else to work with. Great Namek can't be used due to limits in both the game and online gameplay and Super Namek isn't a transformation, but a status given to Namekians who possess incredible power like Lord Slug and the Nameless Namek. Earthlings don't have anything period, and giving them Unlock Potential is just stupid because its not a racial-specific power-up.

If the "awaken" ability for humans and Namekians is accurate, then I'm ok with that. I know Namekians and Humans don't have a lot to work with, but it's a video game and not the series so I don't see why it's so difficult for them to come up with something. Heroes has all kinds of craziness, and I like that they've done quite a few things over the top because when it's all said and done, it is just a video game. More than anything i would just like to see race specific power ups and skills to balance things out. If saiyans have 3 transformations, then the other races don't have to necessarily have the same amount, but maybe other race specific abilities that balance the scales.

Yeah, clearly you havn't played Final Fantasy or most RPGs
I did and I 've played quiet a lot of them, finished 6 Final Fantasy titles and by the time you take on Penance in FFX, don't tell me that you aren't that strongest character in game...
Also, you didn't even argued why or what is wrong with my statement, just acted like ******* straightaway :)

Yeah, storywise, the CAC may not be the strongest character, but gamewise, he is.

Right. Unlocked Potential in XV didn't just give all races a transformation skill. It gave all races a PRACTICAL transformation skill. While I'm not sure on the boosts the skill granted, it gave other races a powerful skill to work with the "Guess We Should Fuse Into Vegetto..." Z-Soul. It also made Earthlings even more broken then before because of their auto-regen nearly negating the drain of the form.

If XV2 keeps (and balances) the statistics of the 5 races, then having SSJ3 on Saiyans isn't going to change the fact that they'll still be Glass Cannons and thus easy to overpower if you play your cards right.

I'm still hoping we get an actual main theme this time, instead of a remixed song. But I'm not getting my hopes up, with those Cha-La Head-Cha-La and We Gotta Power remixes. Guessing they'll be the OP and ED respectively.

Are you new to the DB community? It drops ever month until the game releases but now it can after because of DLC. The game is 3 months away and we are getting something new in the V-Jump whether you like it or not. Jesus.

He always pops in around the time V-Jump leaks, adamant we're getting something new, impatiently demanding a scan (often colorfully accented with curses) instead of just waiting for it to show up like the rest of us, and is generally rude to anyone who engages with him.

With such a short time till release, chances are nearly zero that we won't get something. Whether it's something new, or a rehash of the Japan Expo info... Well, we'll just have to wait and see.

If he wants to act like the 1st part of his user name then he should go somewhere else like Youtube where it's the norm.

I've been here for nearly 5 years (but for some reason he's asking if I'm new) and I've never seen anyone act like that over a simple answer.

I might be the only one who finds it funny that we wait for scans from the magazines, before they get released. Guess that's how bad we have it. :lol:

Or should that be good...?

I guess we just have to wait until the release day like last month, I'm sure we'll get something!

Pretty much everything up until the bolded part is perfectly fine, at which point it becomes 100% unacceptable. This is not how to converse with your fellow fans here at Kanzenshuu.

You know what else I would like this time? The ability to recolor hair for presets. I'd like to make my Saiyan(s) have SSJ, God, and Blue as presets if the latter two don't get added.

While Sintzu is seemingly rude a lot, he definitly was not in this instance. He asked a perfectly legitimant question in a rather emotionless way that in no way implies insult, there's is no way that his words there could be interpreted as rude.

Exactly! Fans have came up with creative ideas for transformations that make sense, so if Dimps can't that's kinda a problem. I still think red eyed Namekian and Roshi 100% form make the most sense while still being creative and not just bland aura changes.
