Not sure if this has been posted. Is this a new poster for Dragon Ball Online?

Yay! Upa's descendants and apparently the reincarnation of Pocawatha( The girl Oolong likes. Pocawatha may be her dub name as I have only seen that particular episode dubbed).

Yeah, that poster's been around for awhile. Can't remember if anyone's posted it here yet though.

That's a dub name. She's nameless in the original.

How the main part of the face is pushed in and the rest is almost like it's someone wearing a Namekian costume, and the long split line across the top I mean.

Is it just a new design quirk, or is it just how they look this far into the future or something?
It's to give the internet what it's always dreamed of - the ability to play as a penis.
Great, now I can't look at them the same way again.
Heh, I had first noticed that when I first saw dende...

Wait... Dende's been penisafied? That's not him in that poster, is it? :shock:

All Nameks have looked like..... that... since their first appearance. The DBO design makes it more noticeable.

Ok, they don't necessarily look like ...that... To me, they look more like Saibaimen, just with darker heads (but same color faces) and no veins on their heads.

So... they haven't always looked like that? Their heads/faces have always been one correlative color, and I don't think there was ever a line down the middle of their head. Wrinkles on the heads of older Namekians, and that's about it. Unless you meant their first appearance in DBO. Which I then wonder, why the freaky change?

It might be if he's just wearing different clothes for fun in the picture. In the game, from the look of some videos, he is still alive and he looks almost the same as usual except with new sunglasses.

I don't think that's Muten Roshi. A picture of his character design in DBO can be found here: http://dragonballbenelux.blogspot.com/2 ... day-5.html

I think it's really cool how the Goku wannabe in the game is wearing a rashguard and gloves instead of weights as what seems like a way to show an evolution in martial arts in the same way that nowadays you see more people in rashguards, fight shorts, and gloves instead of a traditional dougi with a colored belt.

It's especially neat that the oldschool dougi and the more modern wear were sort of spliced together in DBO.

What's the significance of that BP? It's what Solid State Scouter ends on.

It's Freeza's BP in his first form. He tell it to Nail before they fight.

Still ain't going to touch DBO, though.

I think they use that image for a time quest though. Like when Raditz arrived at Kame House.
And, any word on an English release yet? Or a true open-BETA? I wanna play!

I remember I heard something on another forum about Japanese and Taiwanese releases of the game, which could be good news. Most Dragon Ball games don't have a very long wait between English and Japanese releases.

And his beard is longer. Looks like he's going for that "Old kick ass Japanese martial arts master, that you only get to see in those old kung fu videos" look.

Awesome.

I hadn't really paid much attention to DBO, but looking at stuff now I like what I see!

And that female Majin is cute XD I wana play as a Majin now when/if we get the game here.

Also, is that Kamesen'nin on the poster? Gosh, is he still alive?!

I don't think it's actually Roshi, since no one else on the poster is from the original series, just an old dude design. But yeah, Roshi's still alive and kicking in DBO.

Yesh. When I first heard the idea of a female Majin I was wary but now that I've seen them.... <3

<Kaboom> Neither does Rita
<Xyex> Good point.
