I would honestly prefer it if GT was left out. I don't need it tainting the character roster :lol: . No offence to the fans of GT or anything.

As much as I'd love to see more GT characters (let's face it, this generation the only GT we got was Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta and Yi Xing Long in Ultimate Tenkaichi) I'm not expecting to see any GT in a game called "Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z. If that doesn't literally spell out what they're focusing on in this game, I don't know what does.

More GT characters would be cool to play as. It seems like the main villains of GT only get added since they are the most popular. Bio Broly is likely not going to be in the game seeing that he is the black sheep of DBZ villains. I guess they could have him as a boss character though.

The fact that it's called Dragon Ball Z doesn't mean anything, since we saw DB & GT in:

Dragon Ball Z 3
Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World (GT only)
Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai 2 (GT only)
Dragon Ball Z: Sparking!
Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! NEO
Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! METEOR
Dragon Ball Z/Kai: Dragon Battlers

Now, the Battle of Z title makes me worried... :problem:

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter.

Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

I don't really like the title all that much, sounds like something I would've said playing with my figures when I was 10 years old (but then again, I don't think there have been many decent titles). And while I'd like to think it'll go past the Cell Saga and into Boo/BoG/possibly movies, the simple fact that SSJ God is in the game doesn't necessarily mean that it will, I mean haven't there been games that have included like SSJ4 but like nothing else from GT? (I'm thinking of Shin Budokai 2 maybe).

Someone else do this except rephrase it (will the game have dragon ball gt or something like that) and then lets see what happens.

I don't think spamming their page will accomplish all that much, let's just see what is revealed to us first, I mean we haven't even had confirmation of Trunks and Bardock never mind any extra forms.

I would like to have SSJ4 Vegeta, Goku, and Gogeta in this game, Yi Xing Long, and probably Bebi too, that's all I would want from GT I think. :)

Honestly I would just like the 3 main SSJ4's (Goku, Vegeta, and Gogeta) and the 3 main villains (Baby Vegeta, Super 17, and Omega Shenron) from GT and I can live with that. Just those 6; I don't need everyone from GT, only the major characters that played an utmost importance from GT. I can live without Pan; who wants to play as her anyway? Seriously? :problem:

What I'd like to see, personally, is a fully fleshed-out roster--of just Dragon Ball Z characters. Even that would bring the roster down to a realistic level... around 80. All heroes, villains, and movie characters could be done with less than 90 characters. Even if you throw in a healthy amount of what-if characters, that's still significantly lower than Sparking! METEOR's total... hell, it might not even hit NEO's. I wouldn't even miss the DB/GT characters if we got this. Now, in a sequel, they could add the rest, but for now, a full, solid DBZ character roster would be amazing.

I wouldn't have a problem to save some characters for the sequel... if it wasn't the 73th fucking Dragon Ball game (in Japan). :evil:

Sequel? This is why I hate the current model of developing DBZ games in the first place. Guys we will never have the "perfect" DBZ game. It's impossible to put "everything" in one game. What are the chances a character creator mode is in this game? Not likely, if most of the dev time was spent on this new mode of 4 v 4 gameplay.

It's funny, you think by now after the 73rd DBZ game we have the "perfect" game by now, oh the irony :lolno:

If the character list is around 60-70 then that's perfectly balanced, we don't need 160-200 or 400, that's just insane and devs need to spend time improving the gameplay where needed and graphics too.
