Xenoverse is my actual all time favorite game, it hits everything I like in a game and more.

What month does the final DLC pack come out guys?

I don't think that information has legitimately been released.

[Super SaiyaJon]

I have not got the game yet so how is it?

It's amazing, definitely worth a buy! It's a very competent fighting game, especially by dragon ball standards, and the story mode is a breath of fresh air. Also, there's so much to do! You will definitely get your money's worth out of it.

[DarkPrince_92]

Question, do they come in one wish? Or do I have to wish for the same thing twice?

One wish for each.

Got my work cut out for me...

There's a website for these kinds of things.

Awesome! I'm in college at the moment so I can't devote my time to Xenoverse I plan to get it when I get a ps4 eventually

So, just noticed that I had the SSJ4 Vegeta download code in my box. I didn't pre-order or anything, so it looks like Gamestop messed up

SSJ4 Vegeta and the armor are part of the "Day One" copies of the game. They aren't necessarily Pre-Order exclusive.

"It's the newest DB game!"

Y-You monster...! I wouldn't wish BoZ upon my worst enemy

I knew that the 1st pack was in March but I just never bothered seeing when the last one would get released and it looks as if it's still not confirmed so unless something changes I may just wait until it's all released because I still won't be done with the game

The way they've programmed the AI for harder difficulties on parallel quests is extremely questionable. I don't think I like how they've approached designing multiple opponent battles.

For example, undertaking a quest Goten gives you will lead you through a bunch of battles until you reach the Kaio world, where you face off against Goku and Gohan. They spend their entire time firing off Kamehameha ultras one after the other. It feels so incredibly cheap, and that's one of my biggest issues with how they handle difficulty in this game. I died once due to being hit by crisscrossed ultimates one after the other. Evasive moves can only do so much there.

It's not that I'm playing badly or that I find these battles hard, they just feel lazy and cheap, which really bothers me. I don't feel like I'm winning these battles with skill or by working out their patterns or moves, it feels like I'm mindlessly chipping away over a long period of time. That's not fun nor is it the type of thing that should be in a fighter.

I have similar feelings about the 3+ on 1 battles, too. Mechanically, it feels like the game doesn't really cater to its design. I can win with ease by volleying opponents around and making use of the invincibility frames but what other options do I have?

This game feels its best in 1v1 situations where your creative combos and movement, alongside your ability to crack your opponent's patterns, wins you the game.

Anyone else feel this way? I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm having a lot of fun and it's not like I'm getting stuck, I just feel like there's probably a much better way they could have handled things. I'm just thinking about how Dark Souls handles multiple enemy difficulty. It's not a fighter, sure, but it has a much clearer idea on how best to handle multiple enemies on one person.

How did J-Stars tackle this?

[Super SaiyaJon]

I know how you feel. They love cramming Super Future Trunks into every mission and having him spam his ultimate. It's even worse when he's paired with Super Vegeta. How are people supposed to learn how to play correctly when the AI just spams supers?

It's one of my few problems with the game.

_{PS: I have reach a level beyond the average newbie!}

I certainly agree with you, It really doesn't feel like you're winning because you deserved to, but rather by pure luck, instead of making the AI smarter/better, they just gave it infinite KI/Stamina, so basically you'll never get a full combo on these guys and you'll get spammed to death, I hate it so much.

I don't mind the team battles, but only when they're balanced, IE: 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 because unlike BoZ, this game is pretty much a 1v1 Fighter masked by other people in the arena, which could work I guess, if not for the cheap AI.

IIRC, all of J-Stars battles were 2v2 in the Story Mode and I believe in the challenge mode as well and the game is basically designed around that so It's not much of a problem.

[samuraix123]

I agree as well! When I'm up against Piccolo,Vegeta,Trunks,Goku and Gohan, Gohan asked me to train them for the Cell games and against Goku and Gohan I felt it was near impossible because Goku some how kept spamming me with the Kamehameha and if I somehow broke away Gohan was right there to spam with the Ki blasts. I just gave up and went on to beat Cell lol

You lucky
I waited Days for my codes to be emailed, the store was out of Day One editions
SS4 Vegeta is a Beast

SSJ4 Vegeta kinda sucks as a partner. If he dies, his Z Soul revives him and slowly drains his health. If you heal him in anyway, his health will continually drain.

Well, just started my Freeza race character. Here's Galcious.

I wanna take pics too, but I get lines and crap in the way when I take a picture. Is it cause I have an old TV, or my camera sucks?

Also your character would make a cooler form for Freeza, then what might be real.

All of the characters in the game suck as partners. Whenever you have an A.I. on your team during 2v2 or 3v3 battles, they act dumb as shit. They just stand watch you get your ass kicked and barely make a dent in the enemy A.I. You're honestly better off fighting on your own.
