"DBZ: Battle of Z" (360/PS3/Vita) On-Going Discussion Thread

[Saiyan Prince Vegeta]

Guys, I just want to point out that I'm better than all of you because I don't give a crap about any of this. Whether someone is chill or mad, it's just another video game. So while you pheasants sit and bicker about your PR-troubles, I'll be sitting here re-watching the trailer to the new Jump game 1000 times.


I'm absolutely kidding, of course.

We're all pheasents!? I thought I'd been running in front of traffic a bit too much recently. I'll change my profile picture accordingly.

This had me in stitches! As if you changed your profile picture too! That just makes it even better.

How to UT turn into a fans game. As soon as the first gameplay video showed up every begged for all the QTE to be taken out. Everyone was told it would be like Tenkaichi no one wanted UT gameplay at least for a whole match they didn't.

I wisk spike and dimps could make a game together, Budokai was the best CQC for a DBZ game whole Tenkaichi game you the freedom of a DBZ game.

[Jaruka]

I agree Gamertagerz. I think it's wrong to say not to listen to fans at all. a lot of the ideas proposed come from the source material but sometimes we have no control over how it's executed.

Bloody Hell. Kbrooks, I haven't seen you around since the Atari boards closed!

I'm glad it made you laugh

@Jaruka. Hello there. Lol I am on the db fan page but I chime in every one in a blue moon on here. I hope the next game is worth the wait.

We'd hope so. I seem to remember you from all of your movelists suggestions.

My name on the boards was 'knook'

Omg! You guys were in the Atari boards too?! I used to hang out in the general chat section lol.

@kbrooks

Exactly.

[kbrooksgohan]

I hope that they get it together. I don't want another incomplete experience. It's time to step it up and I don't believe stepping it up means HERO mode. There's tons of canon and noncanon content that's never been put in games.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

There's tons of canon and noncanon content that's never been put in games.

There's tons of content that's never been put in the games, yes, but the franchise has no defined canon.

[kbrooksgohan]

I was just saying in general. There's stuff that's never been done or added before that would benefit these games greatly.

KNOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What's up man? We got along great at Atari and then started clashing. Sorry about that.
Are you excited for this years game?

Lol no way I was there too. Same name as now. I was there since BT1. Good times...good times. On the topic of fans though we should have some input when it comes to games that come from another work and are not new IPs

[SparkyPantsMcGee]

There is a fine line developers have to walk when it comes to listening to fans. Hell look at this sub-section of the forums. There is a lot of divide of what people want. Trying to accommodate everything will just leave you with a hideous monster of a product; hence my picture from before. Now, Nostal has a lot of good ideas so I'm not too worried but this isn't always the case. I really hope given the extra time they had, Spike or whoever put together their own product while only using Nostal and the fans suggestions as guidelines. The best word of advise I ever got in regards to something like this was "listen to what fans are trying to say not what they are actually saying."

[Hellspawn28]

I agree that Nostal has a lot of good ideas, but I think people are getting their hopes up way too high if they think every single idea of his will be added into a DBZ game. I hope this game takes out of the bosses or at least fight them like you would any other character.

Yeah I agree, we need giants back as playable characters again. That was just one of the things that made the Tenkaichi series so cool.

Me too! Good times indeed. Doubt anyone remembers me though. I've forgotten how active of a member I used to be... I was always drifting through several sections but yeah I mainly sat in the general chat.

Yeah I want Giants back as well but make them a little bigger.

[Insertclevername]

I really want a memorable soundtrack for this game. Something that can fit the bill of the Yamamoto Budokai games...just less plagiarism-y.

That would be great because the soundtrack gets annoying really quick with these last few games.

[Insertclevername]

Yeah, I found the guitars in Ultimate Blast to drone on for way too long.

[InfernalVegito]

If the soundtrack is shit, then at the very least the option to play your own tracks must be in.

[Dbzmaster28]

I agree. Very headache inducing, they should vary it up with dynamics and a better emphasis on genre. Just for the plenty of people who play this games. I'd like to hear some post-rock influenced like the Death Note soundtrack, along with some ambient tracks kinda like Bruce Faulconers stuff. More stuff like kenji yamamotos budokai bgms is also a definite.

If the soundtrack is shit, then at the very least the option to play your own tracks must be in.

Hope so, think the Xbox can already do this with most games? Don't know about ps3.s This will be on current gen consoles, right? If it is spike developing, I can only think "yes", unless they stepped their game up.

[MCDaveG]

So I trolled my part in here and now seriously on the stuff

If they really put Treevax's ideas in this game, then I will be jumping sky high. Not that I'm dying for next incarnation of Sparking/RB system of games, but well, RB2 actually was the best game in this era and only one I own and play sometimes even today (on PS2, I own every game except for BT and BT2).
So if they will take RB2, add few characters BUT! Add plethora of costumes, story mode and make some visual improvement, I won't be mad and will buy the game.

What's pissing me off the most is not having the Japanese soundtrack in it!
