"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE" Official Discussion Thread

[sintzu]

I figure those extra slots were for transformations. We did see in earlier gameplay Goku starting matches as a SSJ. Could be wrong. My second guess was costumes, no way this roster will break 100.

Have dimps done this in thier previous games ? If not then why start now ?

[JeffJarrett]

They never added several pages of characters either: either all one page, either a listing.

[Quebaz]

Didn't we already confirm that to be the costumes?...

They didn't say anything about thoes yet and in terms of charecters they said the amount will be large so i think it's safe to say that it COULD be at least 100 like the picture cause if not then why show 21 slots and 6 pages ?

I don't see 6 pages anywhere in any of those screenshot.

[JeffJarrett]

The 6 "pages" are the 6 Dragon Balls.

[Quebaz]

The 6 "pages" are the 6 Dragon Balls.

Those are costumes, it's like that in Brave Soldiers and in Storm 3. DO YOU PEOPLE CONTEXT!? Like, that video of EntGaming is what's wrong with DBZ-gaming community, some people don't ever look at things from another POV, this is DiMPS 3D game, they worked on Brave Soldiers which was another 3D game which took inspiration from UNS, this game is doing it too, and when it is obviously copying stuff (the whole select screen) some people just go like "I BET THAT'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THEY'VE DONE BEFORE." Like guys, they aren't re-using their Burst Limit models, how in the hell are they gonna get 100+ characters for their first game?

Yes, it's been stated that there will be a "large" amount of characters. I do not think for one second though that the little Dragon Balls are the number of pages for characters. Especially when used in conjunction with the statement one of the reps made about "remembering how Budokai 3 had a large roster".

I do believe however, that we are getting more than 21 characters, as the roster section has arrows on the sides of the characters slots. How many is another question though. Probably more than Budokai 3, but I'd be surprised if we ended up with 50+...though I wouldn't complain if we did.

[miguelnuva1]

Considering Budokai 1 had 23 and I think burst limit had around the same I'm expecting 40-60 characters.

[dbboxkaifan]

40-60 is a fairly moderate amount of characters for a fighting game and frankly, whenever I play any Dragon Ball game I either pick Goku, Cell or Kid Boo the rest don't really attract me too much to play as them.

[SSJ3_Zack]

Do you guys think that the Wii U will ever get a DragonBall game?

[shadd21]

Based on the interviews it doesn't sound like they intend to have movie or OVA characters in the game so 40-60 seems out of range if their aiming only characters present only in the manga.

[SingleFringe&Sparks]

LOL!! This guy again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IJWJzvLwtE

He thinks there will be over 120 characters guaranteed because of the number above the character slots.....

This channel (UnrealEntGaming) spreads false infos every year, nothing new here. The sad thing is that there are people who believe him.

I'm not surprised by the type of audience this guy has. People in this fanbase are very gullible and will believe a lot of what he says and start to spread those thoughts as fact, when it's mostly speculation. He has stop saying are "confirmed" things that aren't set in stone. These rumors become self-confirmed the more it spread upon and then when they turn out to not be true, all the fans start whining and moaning about things that didn't exist in the first place.

If the sales go up then yes

They could do some awesome things with the Gamepad for a DragonBall game. I hope if they do ever release a game for the Wii U that it would be a different genre rather than another fighting game, an RPG would be awesome or an adventure game.

[Shinnin]

At the least, Bardock and Broly will be in. Neither of them have missed a single console game since Budokai 3.

What makes the Wii U so special aniway? It's just a portable wii rght?

I can almost promise Bardock and Broli, and then maaaaybe Coola, will probably be in the game. They are in almost everything anymore, regardless of what the game actually covers, because of how popular they are. Still, you can hit that high pretty easy without needing to dip too far outside of the main continuity (Series, JSAT, BOG, etc.) just by covering Z fairly thoroughly. For example:

I'm sure it's more than that. But I'm in no rush to get one either, considering how much I play my Wii (which mom bought for Wii fit and never touched again). I have a friend that has one, never asked to play it.

[Avenged]

No one confirmed the extra slots to be costumes. However there was confirmation that there will be IN GAME transformations, therefore there won't be extra slots for that.

Portable? LOL NO. The Wii U is a brand new CONSOLE for Nintendo. They have portable devices such as the 2 AND 3ds.
