Where does it say that the what-if's have been removed?

I, for one, am quite happy. I like the fact that the character's old moves and models have been re-used. There's nothing wrong with them (Goku's face aside) and Gohan's rush actually connects with the opposing character this time round, which shows they've been polished up.

It does, however, mean that not a lot of time would have been needed in making new models and animations, and as such I'm now expecting the entire roster from Raging Blast 2 to be present, and hopefully more.

If they're re-using models and animations, there really is no excuse for them to leave anybody out. What-if's included.

Also that 30 characters thing is a mistranslation or misunderstanding, it is 30 NEW characters in addition to the Raging Blast 2 characters. Anyone could figure that out if you tried to make a character list going from the beginning of Z through GT with only 30 slots including transformations(Counting the like 15 we already know are in the game)
I believe Treevax said it on facebook or something, I can't remember since I read his stuff everywhere now, he talked about all the changes and then said they removed SS3 Vegeta and SS3 Broli.

But who is that, and isn't there a possibility that he was misinformed?

Treevax/Nostal was the guy who leaked the rest of the Raging Blast 2 roster because he was invited to a Bandai event with the full game. He had an interview with Spike and Namdai reps at 10am for the expo, and has been one of the main people giving us info about the game for the past few hours. There is a possibility that he's misinformed, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Reps are notorious for giving false information, since we are so early it could go either way. Also where was I when some one leaked the Raging Blast 2 roster?

This vid was better than the trailer imo. The combat seems like it has a lot going on but hopfully it isnt one of those things that gets old really fast, also it seems to me like supers can only be performed once or twice durring a match idk why its just the way it was done makes it seems like it cant be spammed like in previous games.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

I'm aware, but that is the only information we have to go on right now, so it is held as true. I'd be more than happy to hear that they gave false info just to get more hype when they go "See guys, wee didn't take them out, stop being so gullible", but we'll have to wait and see. It wasn't really a huge leak, with all the magazines and stuff that came out that week, we only had a few characters who we didn't know about. But He was the one who posted the videos to reveal all of Coola's Squad, Mecha Freeza, Mecha Coola, and Tarble.

BTW, I am fairly disappointed in this game now. I want my Sparking/Tenkaichi/Raging Blast back...I don't want to play a game of DBZ-Janken.

There are supposed to be three gauges: Health, Energy, and Spirit. You have to fill the Spirit gauge before you can fire the bigger techniques like Supers or Ultimates.

I am so glad that nothing else in life goes by your logic, other wise the legal system would be even worse than it already is. And by giving false information I mean basically saying stuff they made up or thing might be true.
Also that is just a feature, not the main game. Think of it as the Drama Pieces from Burst Limit.

That was kind of rude you know, even pretending that I'd apply this logic to the legal system would be asinine. I was only applying it to the videogame because the developers do it all the time. When they cut down the roster from Sparking Meteor and took out, lets say Ultimate Gohan, for Raging Blast, everyone complained. Next game, we got him back and he was hyped as a brand new character. Stupid, but its what Spike does. So, playing along, if they say they took out SS3 Broli and Vegeta, then I have no choice but to be happy if they turn out to be in, as I like them.

I've seen the video and read Treevax's descriptions, you no longer have the same amount of free control over your characters combat like in the previous games. Occording to him, once you start combos, a lot of it is predetermined options that get repetitive. I'm willing to be proven wrong, but we'll see.

I was pointing out a fundamental flaw in your logic, I was also making a joke.

From what I've seen now the gameplay seems rather much more static because of the overuse of cinematic camera angles. It comes accross as if you don't control every move by yourself and only press certain buttons at specific times to activate a "cutscene". I don't know but I hope it doesn't feel like the way I imagine it. I want the typical free and full 3D space and to control everything by myself.

For the love of God, Spike! You people need to fix your damn mouth animation. A loop does not animation make. For example of good mouth animation, see: Burst Limit.

What, am I watching? There's so many breaks in the combat to these small little events that I can't tell what's happening.
