Great editing

Pretty good, motion wise it's almost hard to tell. The forehead shading and text gave it away though.

i'm kinda unhappy with "cutting corners" with some movie vilians. garlic should have had his first form. i know that you might think he sucked at his base form but he beat up kami in dead zone pretty rough with that form. i know why they cut it. because it hard to animate a form like this. but they could have gone the extra mile for that. i love to start with base form and then transform doring battle. if garlic only have his transformed form then its not really a form dosent it? +garlic have a special place in the dragon ball universe due to him appearing both in the movie and the main series. while true hes not in the manga hes still in the main series and have an important role and history with kami

i'm more pissed about hirudagan. i know that hirudagan had only his second form in BT3 as well but again... why not going further? in movie 13 (just re-watched it) the majority of the battle was with hirudagan first form and he compleatly annhilated the z fighters in that form. his second form came very near to the end of the movie and if we count the scenes overall he had more fight scenes with his first form. so it kinda annoying that they dont have his first form in the game but they do have tapion. if they included tapion they could have included hirudagan first form. they are cutting corners already with not having dragon ball characters. i also would love to see some henchmens from the movies. bojack crew were all stronger then ssj1 gohan and zangya should have been in the game. android 14 and 15 gave a hard time to ssj trunks and vegeta. i think they should have been included as well.

I assume Hiredugarn not having his base form in any of these games has something to do with him being a giant character who can’t fly. Plus, there’s never been a precedent in any of these games for having a giant character transform into another giant. Janemba is the only transforming giant character, and he transforms into a smaller character.

after watching the last trailer again. is turles voice his ocean dub voice? because this is how it sounds like. but i may be wrong here... it sounds like his ocean dub voice (the ocean dub of this movie is superior to the funi dub IMO) the rest are funi dub voice. btw love garlic jr voice and line "your'e just a nut buzzing around me like a pest" 3:07

I think you mean "gnat" instead of "nut".

I also heard someone say Baby Vegeta might be Brian Drummond the way he sounds. He's made a return in DBS so it's possible if other classic voices came back.

[MisteryOne]

Btw ro we know any specifuc numbers about how the charactets are going to be balanced? Like the 1-7 system that was in Extreme Butoden, that was returning and I'm curious who will be the overpowered ones (probably UI because of the dodging ability but who else?)

Interestingly, just as you suggest, there seems to be a path where Goku goes to Hell to recruit different fighters other than Frieza, eventually choosing Cell. I don't know if it ever goes beyond that tho.

Are you sure you're not just mixing it up with footage of one of the pre-made custom battles where Goku fights Hirudegarn, Cooler, Cell and Frieza in hell?

The video I saw literally said it was a what-if story, but given that I do recall God Goku fighting Cooler before Cell and how this fandom acts when it comes to clickbait...you are probably right, my bad. Will try to be more careful spreading info in the future.

Yeah, I think a giant character transforming into another is just kind of...bland I guess? Seeing Vegeta go giant is always more exciting. Hirudegarn does change a lot visually, but I'm not sure you can make a very different moveset from his base version unless you allow him to somehow fight separated- one of the highlights of the movie for me is how Gohan and Videl were fighting a literal pair of legs.

Some very cool OG characters in your list, but where is probably the most important villain??? King Piccolo??

[FiReFTW]

What I want to know is just how is it with the destructable Namek, changing into the destroyed Namek, can this be turned off or on and what exactly makes it happen? Because if you play on Namek and just do a ultimate with whichever character and Namek gets destroyed always, that kind of s*cks to be honest.

I'd be fine with Hirudegarn's first form just being an alternate costume

[Kanassa]

I wonder if you'll be restricted from playing Custom Battles that include DLC character you don't have.

You can turn off certain map-specific elements, so I assume you can turn off the map getting destroyed for the Namek/World Tournament stage.

The custom battles have no voices. So freaking lame.

[sangofe]

The custom battles have no voices. So freaking lame.

How'd they be able to record voices for custom battles?

[FlpShimizu]

I don't know how some folks are still angry/unsatisfied with the roster and game modes. The developers did a wonderful job, and seeing people calling them lazy, lame and saying they cut corners seems so unfair.

Sometimes I think this is why we can't have nice things.

Because some people seem to think a game can be perfect and have every single thing/mode/character/stage they want with absolutely zero flaws.

[Trouser]

I can understand that Custom Battles have no voices. But I can't understand the choises behind the character roster. I mean, why would they left out adult Trunks and Goten, Paikuhan or Super 17 but include Dr. Wheelo and Frieza Solider? Or why is there Goku (GT) and Pan (GT) but not Trunks (GT) from the main GT trio? Or why is there 15 or so versions of Goku?

Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for this game. I just don't understand the roster decisions. Some of their decisions screams "lazyness" from a mile. I mean, obviously they want to milk this game for x years, so we can expect paid DLC's but it's still lame. I hate this current era of DLCs.

A lot of lines would be per-recorded. You can listen and select the lines that you like.

because frieza soldier needed for the story and he represent the ROF arc in super but then again. why frieza soldier and not shisami for example he is a frieza henchmen and was actually a threat...

unlike you i cannot understand the lack of voice in custom battles. its annoying. makes it lame

about the characters. yeah its the same thing i thought even back when BT3 was still new. why having vegeta SSJ4 instead of heaving vegeta GT with all his GT forms? now about gt/adult trunks and goten. there is hope that since DB super hero will be a dlc we will get teen trunks and goten which are few years younger then their characters in GT. maybe even get adult gotenks? (not fat) who knows?

super 17 is not in the game because his arc in GT contradict his character in super and this is a problem for them. i dont care much about super 17. his character wasent anything special for me. i do care about nova shenron not being in the game. rildo not being in the game etc... they are key characters.

dr wheelo/whiru in the game because many people love that movie as well as other movies and re-watch them regulary. many fans (me included) love to re-watch the movies because its a short invesment unlike watching the entire series over and over. that makes them special. from comments i've seen online prior to the movie characters reveal people were pissed off because they thought they arnt gonna be in the game.

Do you have a source for that?

thats not something that you need a source for. if you saw the super 17 arc in gt then you know that according to that story the z fighters dident had any contact with 17 since the cell saga. so thats obvious why they gave up on him since they have scenes in the story from the TOP with 17.
