I've always hated those stick on vinyls they look horrible. If it was a paint job maybe but not that design. A custom ps4 face plate like the steelbook case would be awesome though.

XD. like Fire ki, ice ki, dark ki, light ki, add an element, then a type of particle (electric, fire, ice, dark) and customize color, that shouldn't be hard to do huh? I'll like my character have a fire dark type of ki :P
I would've thought that this would be one of the custom elements that would've been a given. Aura style and color would be sick. Maybe they'll include in a future DLC?

Regardless, I can't remember the last time I was so hyped for a game. I'll be at Gamestop @ 10:00 AM to pick up my pre-order. :D

It looks terrible on the controller, but I don't mind it on the console itself. I just wouldn't really see the point of including the emblem at all if you aren't going to add another splash of color to it. You could already slap an emblem sticker on a regular edition of the console, but it just wouldn't really feel like a Dragon Ball themed product that way. :lol:

I gotta say, this game is really hard! But not in a bad way, I love the challenge. So far my first impressions are all positive, this game is amazing! I love it!

That's fairly early. Now the only thing I'm really all that curious about is if summoning Shenlong and customizing your character again erases the costumes you set for them or if it just applies the new traits to them.

I had wanted to use this method to create transformations for my Freeza Clansmen (as well as using it to potentially create more custom characters in general). but I don't really want the forms to have the same head design.

I would think making a Wish Alt would override any pre-set costume you had previously set seeing as it's a full remake of the character and not the swapping of the shirt. Pretty sure there was a video showcasing the wish alt in progress and when it takes you to the character create screen, all the models are in their default starting clothes. After you finish adjusting your changes youd be able to toss on anything you had unlocked and purchased like normal.

I can understand why it would reset your clothes and costumes afterward, but I'd really like confirmation to make sure.

If I can't alter the Freeza Clansmen's head and set him to Costume 2 and then recustomize him and create another form as Costume 3, then guess I'll just use the slots to determine movesets. Not a fan of them wearing clothes and even adding battle jackets changes the Freeza Clan's armor. :/

You can alter EVERYTHING if you use the wish aside from gender and race. Meaning head, eyes, hair, nose, mouth, etc, the wish allows you to change any of it. If you want your default look to be small like Chilled, then your second alt be Freeza's final form and the final alt along Cooler's height, you can.

I got a question for anyone who knows.
If you created another character, can you still access and outfit him without going through the story again?. I mean if you buy some equipment with your main, then create another one, can you access your already unlocked things? :O

We don't have very many custom character slots as it is (though Ultimate Tenkaichi was worse in terms of numbers), so I don't want to create these forms as completely different character slots. I'd want them set as the avatar's costumes from the character selection screen, which is why I'm asking about what happens when you change your character via Shenlong's wish.

According to Quebaz and what he saw on some streams, any moves, items, and moves you unlock can be sent to your other customs since apparently you unlock and/or buy them multiple times. So if you have...let's say 3 Big Bang Kamehameha's, you can send them to whatever custom characters you want. Parallel Quest progress also tracks across all your characters. So if you Z rank a mission and move to another one of your customs, that mission will still hold a Z rank even if you never played it with that other character.

We got 8 slots be default and I think 7-8 alt slots for each. Meaning if you use the Shenlong wish, you could have roughly 56-64 possible characters. Regarding being able to change the name, it's a 50/50. We have Gohan and Videl receiving name changes for their Saiya suits but whether or not that luxury is also given to our customs remains unknown for the time being.

It depends on how the customization works with the avatars costumes, which is why I'm asking in the first place. It would be great to have all those "extra" characters and I don't really mind if the name changes or not. I just want to know if I can actually use Shenlongs wish to create multiple characters in said single slot. Because ideally, if we can, my main character slot would look like this:

Slot 1 - Freeza Clansmen
  • Costume 1 -- Whatever I'm currently wearing, because that's how it works.
    Costume 2 -- Avatar (1st form, Maybe a battle jacket)
    Costume 3 -- Avatar (1st form, no battle jacket)
    Costume 4 -- Avatar (True form)
    Costume 5 -- Avatar (Super form)
    Costume 6 -- Froze
    Costume 7 -- Rezok
    Costume 8 -- "Berserker"

Your list is entirely possible. The only unknown is whether or not the wish allows us to change our names for alts, like Gohan and Videl do with the Saiya suits. Otherwise your good so far.

I get what you're saying. So I save my current costume and look in say slot 5. I then wish for Shenron and say change my hair to blonde to make a fake super saiyan look. Will my slot 5 look still have black hair like the character looked like when I saved it into slot 5, or will the slot 5 costume change to blonde.

Found the texture that controls the color/shading of the characters and did this as a quick test edit to Goku's chest model. I think a mod for flatter cel shading should be pretty simple to do.

Thanks so much! I was hoping it'd be available around the Android/Cell stuff but was honestly expecting it to appear after completing the story. So this is way better than I thought! :mrgreen:

Really appreciate you checking that out, I wanted to know that before I started the game myself since I plan on using it for my own roleplay during the story.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!
