Supa Saiya-Jin Tullece wrote:Alright, I had this really weird glitch I need help figuring out.

I was fighting a 5v5 match, and I had my Goten and Trunks fuse to Gotenks. Since I was fighting lvl 160s, I lost. After this, my Bardock (which was my last character) was supposed to come out. Instead, I got Goku with Ginyu animations, and as soon as he landed, the game crashed. This only happened one other time to me.

Any thoughts?
Just a glitch. Not much you can do.

I know it's not quite what you guys were talking about but I'm wondering, when do you guys think the "Playstation2 The Best" version of this game will come out in Japan? How long does that kind of this usually take?

I'm actually having some troubles with this game - I only recently started going at story mode, as I've only been dabbling with it until recently. I have the Wii version and I have completed through the garlic Jr. story, however for some reason, now that Goku has 4 costumes and super saiyan ability, when I select him and get to select costume (which now has 4 options) I cannot select ANY of the costumes, effectivey locking me out of playing him. At first I thought they were doing the oh hes gone thing since hes out of story mode with Namek blowing up...Is that really it or has anyone else run into this and found a way to fix it...or am I boned with a bad copy I cant return (Bought it back in november).

EDIT: Nevermind, this is apparently a known bug in the game, if anyone else runs into it this is what GAMEFAQS' board had to say in the mesageboard FAQ:


1. I can't pick Goku! When I'm choosing the color of his costume, it won't let me select anything.

After unlocking Super Saiyan Goku and until supposedly the end of the Buu Saga, Goku's costume can't be chosen with the remote. The solution is simple. Point the remote away from the screen and select it with the nunchuk and the A button

I've got a question. When I'm picking a stage in Dueling mode, what does the "Map Effect" option do?

It keeps the stage from being destroyed by an Ultimate Blast.

Recently people have been complaining that Tenshinhan isn't as good as he could be, but I've found a way to fix all of that.

By giving him a series of Halos I got it so that he can shoot ten Kikoho blasts and only take half of the ki, then I got it so that he wouldn't die using Perfect Stance. After that I just maxed out his Blast 2 and Ultimate Blast.

He does upwards of 90,000 damage with his Ultimate (on an SSJ4 Gogeta with maxed health and defense stats).

How do you use #19 and #20's energy absorbtion properly? I can only do it sometimes and I'm not clear on how it works.

For the little "ki bullets" I think all you have to do is just hold block before they reach you right?

But what about Blast 2's? I try holding block and they simply block the attack. I try hitting block right before it reaches me and they teleport out of the way. But sometimes I absorb the blast 2's and I'm not sure how I did it.

What's the method to do it and also, can only certain types of Blast 2's be absorbed? I have a sneaking suspicion that death beams can't be absorbed.

I've got no idea... I really don't like the Androids all too much seeing as you can just gain Ki if you use an item (I forget which one, though).

I'd guess try it a little sooner than if you were trying to teleport out of the way...

And only some Blast 2s can be absorbed, like Kamehameha and stuff.

You can gain energy fairly easily just by fighting. They get a lot of it every time they hit somene physically. You can also almost fill your bar if you grab someone.

It really sucks that there's really no info on any of this. I'd rather be able to absorb energy attacks and gain ki than to block them and loose health.

Lol. What you do is you time your hitting of the Circle button.
Instead of them swiping the blast away, they'll absorb it, and stay in a position to absorb any energy blast (some supers included) that come at them.
Same goes for Super 17. :D

Yeah but with that method you can't consistently absorb B2's. You would have to hope that they fire ki bullets for you to absorb first so that you can stay in the absorb stance.

There has to be a way to just be able to absrob a B2 whenever it's fired at you.

It's the same. Time it as you would to smack away an energy blast. Push too soon and you block, push too late and you teleport. It's a fairly narrow window.

Wild sense gives you a free counter attack. If somebody comes in for a Melee you'll automatically teleport around them and smash them to the ground. Kaioken and others that give you those little icons boost your stats. Each icon refers to a different stat. Like Ki, Speed, Attack. Defense, etc. I don't know which is which though.

As for levelling up, I don't know another way. However I think you can get "Kiss of 18" by winning all of the tournaments in a certain order. I got it once but haven't been able to do it again.

Kiss of 18 is when you complete all tournaments so I think you can only get it once without wishing. As to Humpski question, how do you use #19 and #20 UB, they just rush to the person and tried absorbing but since I have no idea to active the attack, they just kick the person back after doing the attack, same as Cell's absorb life B2 and UB.

I know this question has been answered before, but what's the MAX level you can get for your custom characters? Level 115 or 120? I can't remember which one.

Yeah, 160. 8 stats x 20 levels each = 160.
