"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread

Anyone else having a problem with "character importation " only being used for cutscenes?

I've basically had to recreate my XV1 character again just so I could play as "her" again after I beat the XV2 the first time. (I know XV and XV2 are different characters, but I put a lot of work into my XV character)

There's no problem. It was pretty much stated from the start, and reiterated for months now, that your XV character wouldn't be playable. The importing was only for the hologram, story mode, and the bonus early unlock of the skills & costume parts your character was wearing.

Dataminers have already got some voice clips of the next mentors: Bardock, F!Gohan, Cooler and Whis.

The game has been fun so far, I'm half-way through the Namek Saga (I don't want to rush) and there are so many quests and missions to do compared to the first game :3. Sadly my graphic card sucks and the game lags in Destoyed Namek and Glacier.
SPOILERS FROM MISSIONS
[spoiler]Travelling to locaylization's like Elder Guru's house was probably the best thing. I failed the 4th mission of protecting the Dragon Balls and getting onto Freeza's ship and stealing them was fun, specially when Cooler and Frieza showed up. And other missions like doing combos or quests for Satan and deciding to be part of Zarbon or Dodoria's squads for cool too. Now i'll wait and see if I can train with Vegeta.[/spoiler]

Training with Vegeta (Capsule Corp, not the instructor) unlocks at level 30, and the second quest is at lv 40, as far as I remember. Those are the only two quests you get from Vegeta, unless if you are a Saiyan.

You get three as a non-saiyan. One as Base Vegeta, second as SS Vegeta and third as SS2 Vegeta. I'm guessing Saiyans face him in his Blue form.

Nope, no Blue. I also definitely don't remember a third quest. The Saiyans face him and Goku at the same time. Goku also goes SSJ3 during the fight.

I definitely got a fourth with him in SSJB. I got it around lv60. He gave me Super Vegeta as a reward.

It's really stupid how RoF Goku base form is a costume yet SSB is its own slot. Should've had SSB be a transformation for RoF Goku. Hell, RoF Goku doesn't even have a transformation.

I hope the third character is not another version of Hit like Time Breaker Hit.

While I was playing a ranked game I went against a hacker and the server got disconnected and I then tried to look him up no results I'm assuming he got banned.

Just beat Omega Shenron's expert mission and holy shit was that a challenge! The difficulty spike between him and Golden Freeza was huge! You really do need to run a good team for this stuff. But man is it fun!

[Turambar]

Okay. I think someone has already mentioned this, but the Dodoria Launcer...Oh my goodness, yes.

[GTx10]

That Advanced Combo training mission is just infuriating! I could not pass it and I am ashamed of myself... So 80 is the level cap again huh? I can live with that. Does the Guru missions forever loop? Because I've 100% all 5 side quest missions and Nail's still bugging me to save Namek.
I'm disappointed that Goku Black has no lines with any character, like was their nothing to record? Also does anyone know where to get the Kamehameha pose? I need it so I can show it off to one of the NPC's. Also their is a pose for Goku's first attack against Piccolo. Where do I obtain those poses?

The one for Goku's attack against Piccolo is the Kamehameha. I think that I got it from someone right next to that person.

So I've avoided this thread like the plague to keep mostly spoiler free. Now I have just done every story bit this game has. So I can enjoy the news and talks about this game.

Gameplay wise it's more what Xenoverse 1 should have been. It fixes a lot of the bullshit the original had. Masters are always in the world, so no more bullshit spawning garbage. Super Armour is mostly gone which means any difficulty I face is from more competent AI, and not garbage invincible super frames. Expert Missions are fun. The side missions so far are pretty fun though getting the last training mission completed was a bitch. Ultimate Finishes are easy to get, but items still feel pretty hard to earn. I can't tell if the RNG got any better. Leveling up is not a tedious grind and I pretty much maxed out by going out of my way to do side missions, and not grind Great Apes over and over again. Though I missed Guru's perk, so respecing will have to happen. I also adore how I can get master skills practically instantly when I find them, instead of a tedious friendship max grind. QQ Bangs help the costume issues I find. Can wear anything now, but with the entire results being up to chance....that's stupid.

Soundtrack is alright. Can't really think of too many new memorable songs except for the jungle theme for Turles and Slug.

Story wise...it's pretty disappointing, but had it's share of surprise moments. A lot of the time I was saying "This is exactly what Xenoverse 1 did." However the few curveballs were pretty sweet. Though overall beyond a few moments, and seeing your Xenoverse 1 character every now and then, it's not really all that great.

[spoiler]Ginyu Trunks is probably my biggest highlight followed by Trunks saving Future Gohan...that was so touching. Wonky power scaling which is to be expected in these games, but I found myself facepalming at Vegeta killing Janemba in base form. I don't remember killing Broly though. He just sorta disappeared. Though despite being youtube title spoiled by complete accident, I'm still surprised SSJ2/3 Bardock is a thing...he's even more wanked than Broly is. I also really dig Final Form Mira. It's great there was no Hijack by Ganon second character to suddenly steal away the limelight. I wonder if your choices matter when it comes to the little amount you get. If I had to guess, probably not.[/spoiler]

Overall I am really enjoying myself. Though I find it weird how Ultimate moves are so much harder to hit. They practically miss most of the time. Which is good and bad. Good cause it shows the more competent AI, bad cause I find myself not being able to use a ton of Ultimate's for being too slow or unreliable. Kaio-Ken x20 Kamehameha is such a cool looking move, but it never hits....ever. It always misses. Even in training mode where the Ai doesn't move, the attack still misses.

[Super Saiyan Swagger]

The soundtrack in this scene is just... I got chills: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtnlyDmcNZU

The OST is such a mixed bag. There are some fantastic pieces of music such as the one I just shared, the Masked Saiyan theme and the final boss theme but then there's stuff like most of the hub world music.

Hey guys, finally finished my super in depth review. Funny enough a lot of the comments I'm reading on this page line up to my views I had on the game haha.

http://www.capsulecomputers.com.au/drag ... -2-review/

For those only interested in scores I gave it a 7.5. This is actually what I gave the first Xenoverse and this is no doubt a better game, but XV2 lives as a sequel to the first game and outside the fighting engine improvements and Conton City, it barely does enough to justify it's existence unfortunately. It solves a fair few problems, mostly RNG, super armour on bosses and more, but also leaves a lot of problems intact and even creates new ones such as the mission progress being seperate between your characters and the god awful load times. We'll see what this patch does for those things though, I might review the review later but typically you review something as you have played it.

[ShadowBardock89]

So I bought 2 Collector's Edition... They're shipping now. I think I'll give one of them to a friend that recently had a birthday.

[TL18]

I actually like that the story restarts with every new character you make. It actually makes me wanna level up those characters, and either way, you still share moves and equipments with all of your characters.

They said that they were going to patch this, but really I hope they make it optional to start the story over.

[GTx10]

I got that NPC to show me the Kamehameha pose. Which is odd because the pose I used to get the Kamehameha pose did not work the first time I used it. Perhaps because I hasn't progressed in the Academy training? Who knows.
Most Ultimates won't work unless you Stamina Break a fighter first. Thus if your bad at Stamina Breaking (like I am) most Ultimates are indeed useless. No! Don't patch the giant Namekians! I need that form to beat hard quests.
Well my whole reason for picking a Namekian has just been shot in the ass. Sigh, and the story restarts when you create a different character? I'm screwed now and stuck with a race who's about to be nerfed. Honestly I blame the PvP folks for the Namekian compliant.

[Fresh Prince]

Does anyone play the Expert Missions online?

I'm stuck on the Omega Shenron one, but when I create a room or try to find a room no one joins or there's no games to join. I'm on Xbox One.

[SSJ.Natto]

The game is really fun! Much better than the first one... But oh boy... The last Challenge Mission is a pain! I couldn't finish the final combo yet x.x... True I only tried once, for half an hour or so, but... Too hard!

[Xaroc]

Uhm... I'm not really sure but... is Beerus-samas "One Finger Beam" (sorry, I forgot the name) kinda overpowered? It always breaks my stamina whenever it hits me. Good, one might say: "Don't let it hit you", but somehow in the last Training Quest he always managed to hit me out of nowhere while I was dashing at him and even with max stamina it broke and took hours to recharge (while he was beating the "stuff" out of me). Is it intended to do that or was I just unlucky? (or dumb?) Just asking...
