Those 'fins' on the battle armors look horrible. Way too restrictive. They're even worse for that than the ones from the series, and didn't Vegeta complain about those? :?

Also, am I the only one that thinks "19000" looks like 19 and 16 fused? :lol:

I love video game concept art, it's always better than the actually game.

Is this indicating that Piccolo ages really slowly? :shock: (Slower than I thought at least). Or is he just shown with Time Patrol Trunks and the DBO era elder just because?

They are upgrades of Eighter and 19. If you notice 08's upgrade says 0008 and 19's upgrade says 19000. Possible boss fights?
You fight 19000 as well as the Buyon like guy in Dr. Gero's Laboratory. http://dbmmo.com/dragonball-online-dr-g ... y/465.html

It's kind of interesting that Piccolo was included in this. I don't think he's actually appeared in the game thus far. Maybe it's a sign that he will?

No, I'd place my bets that that's how he'd appear in the game. If you look carefully, you can see a little crease like a wrinkle on his face and he also happens to be wearing boots, which is a little bit of a change from how he looked at the end of the series.

I think it's already implied that Namekians age relatively slowly as compared to humans. According to the Daizenshuu timeline, Piccolo Daimao was about 200 years old when he was sealed away, and it seems that he was young at that time, otherwise he wouldn't be complaining about losing his youth, since he wouldn't have had one.

He was shown in like one of the very first few screenshots when the game was announced. There are also videos going around of some 23rd Budokai quests and the Raditz fight which of course, also shows Piccolo. =)

Damn, that's awesome. I think the elder is Moori, but feel free to call me a derp if that's common knowledge about the game.

Man, Devilman's new look is the best. It's like... Toriyama designed a Kingdom Hearts character, with that scythe.

Yeah, it's been established that Muri is still the serving as the Great Elder in Age 1000.

On Piccolo: I think I mentioned this before, but one of the interviews with the game makers confirmed that he was still alive in Age 1000.
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?

I love that Devilman art, looks very Dragon Quest-ish.



Wonder why that is.......

Krillin complained, but then found that they moved easily. Vegeta only stops wearing them because there aren't any in his size on Freeza's ship.

Those are all "Supers" in game that you fight for quests.

Digimon perhaps, not Pokémon. Then again, with how horrid the Pokémon designs have become, I wouldn't be surprised.

It looks like the 9th generation of pokemon, hitting the 1000 barrier. I miss the first 150 stage :cry: .

I think all the design work looks great. Very colorful and inventive, taking old Dragon Ball staples and giving them a fresh new look without becoming unfamiliar.

I dunno if this has been answered or not, but I can't find it with the search function. I'm far too lazy to read through 39 pages of stuff I've already read once before when I can just simply ask and maybe get a direct answer.

Though it would probably be a good experience for my chosen career field, but I digress.

Can you add scars to your character's face similar to Yamcha?

There hasn't been anything in the character customization for that thus far. Maybe they'll add it as a cash shop item later on, though.
