"Raging Blast 2" Gigantic On-Going Gaming Discussion

[LeprikanGT]

That is the one outfit I couldn't care less about. Hes in blue and orange in every single one with an itty bitty pacth difference on the front and back. IF they want to give Goku alt outfits, I want to see; the yardrat outfit, his saiyan armour outfit, his 'I'm going to stay super saiyan all the time' before the Cell games outfit, and his Vegeta looking outfit.

... Yeah, the problem with people like you is that you want everything. You make outrageous demands and then if Spike can't conform to them you piss and moan, sending insults at Spike whilst you, personally, know nothing about game development or even the budget of the Raging Blast series. This fandom would be a lot better off if people knew the effort that went behind games and also the cost of making games. This is not like the Halo or Gears of War franchise, they don't have money being thrown at them left, right and centre, so before you call Spike lazy or demand more from the games, think about things for once. In fact, from your reactions to the game I'm pretty willing to guess you're from the Atari or BandaiNamco forums, I really hate to have a go at someone but it must get on other people's nerves too.

[LeprikanGT]

I don't think its an "outrageous demand" to ask for alternate outfits in a game besides alt. colors. Most people in this forum agree.

There aren't just those, I provided proof of Goku's alternates and instead you rattled off a list of other alternates you want, that was my problem. Nothing is ever good enough and to be fair, Spike have been the best for alternates out of any Dragonball Z developer yet.

I agree with you, but I understand Leprikan's point, from the perspective that as many Dragon Ball games have been released, they're still taking steps back. Now, I do see what you said as a fair justification for why certain decisions are made. However, you've got to admit it is a bit annoying at times.

In addition, many of the Dragon Ball games are developed by many different companies with not affiliation with each other. It is unrealistic to expect that each game, regardless of developer, would add additional content.

We're lucky Dragon Ball games are still being developed. It's 2010, and you're getting Hatchihyaku, a new fully remade, (virtually) unseen special in HD. You want to play as Yardrat/Saiyan armor Goku? Who gives a shit? Go play Sparking! METEOR.

Maybe this is why taking certain steps back--to piss off the ungrateful kids who spam up Atari/Namco-Bandai/Daizex forums demanding create-a-character, ten new costumes for each character, 500 new characters all unique from each other, 200 stages, cutscene maker, every background music track ever used in the series (in the case of these kids, Faulconer music), and you'd still find something to complain about.

Agree 100% mate.
My main problem right now is that people are using the pre-order bonuses to bitch about Spike's choice of alternates when they actually have no idea what alternates are actually in the damn game, I just find it so ridiculously funny

Nothing is perfect in this world. With almost 7 billion people on this planet you will ALWAYS find someone who complains about something the majority wouldn't even try to think of complaining about it. I can say that I am happy that Dragonball games have reached the era of HD which is still quite young in my view.
Of course I find myself complaining about the loss of certain costumes at a time but that doesn't make me rage or anything alike. I am grateful to have the option to play Dragonball games and that's awesome.

[LeprikanGT]

I'm just saying; this is like the 12th or so console fighting DBZ game; at this point, we should have seen every single costume from the show and then some.

Spending too long on Atari, I think.

You sir are full of win but you forgot to mention gamefaqs dbz boards which are the worse pessimists you will ever find. I got trolled out for being positive or neutral to the series.

[VegettoEX]

Can you folks please stop talking shit about other sites? It's absolutely unwarranted. Your stereotypes and baseless assumptions are out of line. Either talk about the game, or please don't bother posting.

I don't see it that way. I'm an active member of the others I mentioned... and I didn't say GameFAQs because that's not one I'm part of. And, I mean... I, personally, am not talking shit about the sites themselves, just the group of kids that are impossible to please. Though, I will stop talking about them.

Yes, agreed. I guess I've come to realize that there's really no reason to complain unless they're doing things that seem deliberate (the way the first Raging Blast was seemed like a bit much).

[Saimaroimaru]

I wonder if online will be full of Super Vegito Beam Sword spammers again.

[goku the krump dancer]

I'm really hoping there more super attacks in this game.

[Vegeta's Wire]

Not to mention the awfully ridiculous Kid Buu spammers... What's the point? To gain points in the ranking and beat your opponent without fun or cleanly just because you spam a technique or/and tactic? I mean, it's in their right but it's definitely not ethical...
Well, at least I hope that Spike adds some sort of "punishment" for those who quit battles when they know that they can't win...

[mysticboy]

No blast stocks = nothing to stop spamming.

[Vegeta's Wire]

No blast stocks = nothing to stop spamming.

Oh yes, I almost forgot the spamming of Wild Sense and Afterimage Strike (accompanied by the Beam Sword Slash, it makes Vegetto the most complete "spam character"), but those ones, if you know cancels, have easy and effective ways to sucessfully counter.

Just because you disagree with the lad doesn't give you the right to be harsh to him. His opinion is no more invalid than yours.

[InfernalVegito]

I don't know if that has already been discussed but what me pissed of the most in RB1 is the stillstand after a Super-Volley attack. The character fires their blasts and then stands there without doing anything and you can't control him for like 3 seconds. It's like you are frozen and in addition those attacks don't seem to damage the opponent very much, if at all. On top of it all you are completely vulnerable to any attack.
I hope they fix this in the full version of the game because when I played the demo at gamescom it didn't seem so.

If its not fixed now then it most likely wont be fixed.

But since you did play one of the recent demos. Do you mind explaining in detail what the experience was like?( new features etc)
