I would assume that the open beta will be available to download from the PSN Store on the 13th and will just be off limits to people who didn't pre order until the 14th?

Surprised nobody posted this. Have fun people! I'm totally not jealous of console players.

Can't wait to see some Gohan, Pure Boo, Beerus and Nappa shenanigans. I wonder what those two dramatic finishes are...

It was easier for us, PC players, to avoid the pain that way.

I will once again be living my adult life this weekend (translates to be working), but hopefully when I come home I will have some fun. Since Black isn't in, Krillin and Beerus are the ones I'm most anxious to play with.

Krillin looks to be a lot of fun and I never had the chance to play with Beerus (or any DBS character/transformation for that matter). I'm excited!

It's interesting how different it is from the japanese one.
Thank God, these polls mean shit in the end. But good to know Caulifla managed to crack top 10 even with almost 700 downvotes. :lol:

So on the Kanzenshuu home page we can see the characters, stages and modes avaliable in the demo. Do we have any confirmation as to if private matches or match invites will be in the beta? I hope it isn't just versus randoms like the closed beta was.

^ There's a good chance it is just random encounters if the closed beta was liked that. But we'll see.

On another subject, it's unlikely, but I hope there's an in-game checklist of the Dramatic Finishes to experience, sort of like a sidequest to "complete the list of secret scenes you've discovered".
I guess that in any case, there will be a trophy for experiencing them all.

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

I really don't understand his theme music, honestly. :D
It's like a theme of a mob's hitman from the 50's. Or was that what they went for?

Hit's theme is easily one of the most unfitting things I saw in a videogame. I couldn't take his trailer seriously, because that theme doesn't fit his character at all.

On other hand, I'm still impressed how good Goku Black's Scythe Ultimate is. They took a great idea form the anime and improve it a lot.

His theme definitely has the "Time to make the donuts" vibe.

Two questions.

1. Is Android 21 a playable character?

2. Are there anymore non DLC characters to be announced?

She's not confirmed to be playable, and we don't really know. It was reported by Eurogamer that there would be two more characters announced this month, and they claimed it was said during a presentation. Haven't seen anyone else backing this up, though.

I probably won't get this day one either but I am interested, if it's just the usual story mode of Z type of game not really sure there is much to be excited about to be honest. I don't think 2D or "2.5D" is much a selling point and I hope it isn't the only selling point of the game.

I know the title doesn't say Z but the visuals certainly do, they should have gone full Super here, we've had a plethora of Z games before and this is gonna stale pretty quick especially with what other members saying expect a small roster...

I was actually excited about this when it got announced but been thinking about it more and feeling less excited now.

Though I must say the reaction from this game does show how easy it is to milk the franchise and us fans, couple of cool flashy moments cut in a trailer and everyone goes crazy, :P

Has your opinion changed yet? :wink:
