"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread

[GTx10]

Where is everyone getting UI Goku, Jiren, and Fuu from? That datamine showed some R7 something, "FUU" "JIR" and "BUL." The "BUL" thing is Bulma's new model and I can see how folks got Fuu and Jiren from the letters but how is thr R7 thingy UI Goku? Somebody explain.

We already know that the DLC will include "A new form Goku", there's not much it could be other than UI Goku. The other listing is R17, which is likely Ranger 17.
They also said the DLC would include a "New original character" and an adult Fu would fit that perfectly.
Also they aren't JIR and BUL, they are JRN and BLF, "Jiren" and "Bulma Resurrection F", not a big deal though.

I was aware of the "new form" Goku but I didn't see how folks got UI Goku from "R17." I could get Android 17 ranger suit vibes from that. But I can admit that it's most likely UI Goku. Bulma is part of the playable roster or they seemingly threw her name amongest the newest models within the game?
Isn't this the second time we have seen the "FUU" letters within a datamine?

NO one got Goku from R17. And with Bulma, it's simply that the new model for the Heroes Colosseum is under the same folder as those in the roster.

No, people just say UI Goku because it was said that we would get a new form of Goku and the creator said that the form would be something from Super. No one thinks that R17 and UI Goku are related. In fact i think R17 is a ranger 17 preset for the DLC 6 free update.

I also hope that Fit Buu and Hit with his force punches are added to the free update.

People are starting to speculate that 'FUU' is fit buu.

[ArchedThunder]

The only way FUU is Fit Buu is if R17 or JRN are the original character and aren't actually 17 or Jiren, which I think is unlikely. Many people seem to be completely forgetting that we are getting a new original character in DLC6.

In fact i think R17 is a ranger 17 preset for the DLC 6 free update.

Character variations aren't separate character listings, except Awoken Hit, but that's because they changed his stance which meant animation reworking.

Not that I'm aware, and this is a brand new character listing.

Dataminers never said 17 was listed as a separate character, he could very well be a preset.

I read that before... THough I always forget whether latter is first or last...

Here's an easy trick to remember, former comes before, latter is later.

[SeniorMaj]

It can't even really be Fit Buu because it doesn't fit the naming scheme for Buu in the game, every Buu starts with BU
Majin Buu-BUL
Super Buu BUM
Kid Buu BUS
Small Buu BUZ
Buuhan BUU

you mean to tell me not only did they change up the way they do the naming conventions they also managed to give him like 4 new moves?
no way, besides the name of the pack is literally history of infinite and Fu is a character who's literally going to influence/shake the history when he grows up

[ArchedThunder]

FUU also has Towa and Mira's "Demonic Aura"

FUU is definitely Fu.

Also, doesn't Guy literally have the infinity symbol on his head?

How much experience does it take to evolve a figure?

I have 19 more models I need, but 10 of them I could evolve spares to get.

Thinking I'll keep going and if the last ones I have are ones I can evolve then I will do that.

But I don't want to spend all my exp evolving one if I then get it randomly. So I'm planning on saving my exp till I have enough to level all the remaining figures I have in one go.

Oddly specific but that's the most efficient thing to do.

So yeah how many exp does it take to evolve the average figure?

@ anyone who has done the download to play XV1's story:
How does it work? Do you play as your TP from 1 that you upload to 2, or is it your current TP?

Alright so I can understand UI Goku and to a lesser extent Jiren, and I guess Fuu as well, but I'm surprised were getting Android 17. I dunno I feel like it would have made more sense to include another new TOP character like Kefla or one of the other prominent TOP characters. Not that I have anything against Android 17 I just find it a bit odd.

[Anime Kitten]

In the recent stream prior to the release of Extra Pack 1, Hirano stated that they could add more DLC if the Extra Packs do well in sales, so I could see another pack or two with some additional Universe Survival characters - primarily Toppo, Ribrianne, and the Saiyan girls, but potentially also Dyspo and the Trio de Dangers. The Namekians and other fighters would probably be saved for Xenoverse 3 just because of popularity.

Obviously this is barring any characters that we haven't seen much yet that could become more relevant later on.

It hasn’t been confirmed but they THINK he is the fourth character.

I agree it would make way more sense for the 4th to be Kafla, Toppo, or even Ribrianne so i think R17 is DBS 17 as a preset for the free update

Sorry for the late reply, okay if it's not confirmed or it later is and he's part of the free update than that's fine with me. I'm hoping we do get some of the more unique TOP characters as dlc later on cause I'm not that crazy about Jiren.

[GTx10]

How exactly does datamining work? Using the current examples we have "FUU" with a demonic energy aura. So why can dataminers tell us the color of the aura but not who the character is. Wouldn't the "FUU" file lead to a full name and/or at least something a bit more tangible?
R17 could be Ribrinne. (I believe I spelled that wrong) Is their a link to what Android 13 and the dlc5 characters were coded under? I would like to make guesses based on how they abbreviated the current dlc characters. Also I am pretty sure I have seen the "FUU" name pop before because I remember folks speculating about Fuu before.

Basically, in games like this it's common practice in Game Development to leave framework for the next content patch in the update; making it more convenient to build upon that framework and keep things organised as well as make sure it doesn't screw with the game. Sometimes they'll already have some details in there, such as the stats, maybe abbreviations of moves they'll add, maybe they'll have the name in there and other data. But other times, they simply put it there as a placeholder, a template they keep to work off of.

This is particularly found in MMO's, where putting in the framework is rather essential.
