You would trade it in with Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions about to be released? Not a good idea! I'm sure the guy apply named "Izlude" would agree. Oh man, I'm more hyped about that game than BT3. Oh yeah...Dragon Ball forum. *Ahem*

I hope they have General Blue's outfit from movie 3 as his alternate.

Oh my god, Arale has awesome moves! Blue is okay and having Penguin Village as a stage is going to rock!

I bought a PS2 specifically to play Sparking Neo. Really glad I bought it now. Meteor is gonna rock even more!

I bought my PS2 to play Sparking and for other PS2 games but mostly for Sparking.

And Cell Saga Gohan's Ultimate looks pretty awesome again.

Hells yeah. All of the characters who had different appearances in the DB movies should appear that way as alternate costumes.

Nappa just completely sucks though, haha.

Nappa had a high health level though, and it increased even more if one started the battle as an Oozaru. He wasn't the best character, but he was far from useless.

Yeah, I agree with the Supreme Kai being off. He was a lot faster and stronger in the Budokai games.

He was a Budokai 2 Freeza clone in the Budokai games, that's why he was fairly decent.

In any case, they really killed Zangya in BT2... She was supposed to be stronger than SSJs, but, in the game, her health level was low and she wasn't really fast enough or powerful to make up for that.

For Pan, they just need to remove the 'girly punches' part of the second half of her combo, it just makes her too slow, but otherwise I though she was decent.

I wonder if one could say that Zangya was stronger than a SSJ.
I mean, the whole time, Bojack's team teamed up against everyone and fought as a real "team" (while Gohan or Trunks fought "alone").

So, I don't really know if she is stronger than a SSJ. Oo

However, I could always handle her pretty good in BT2, so okay, one more health bar would be alright, but whatever, she was fine in speed.

Abou costumes, wanna know an even simpler one? #16 with capsule corp logo =P you just need to change a tiny weeny logo in his chest and voila, a new costume. Of course you could also add his battle damage.

That would be awesome, but the cynic in me thinks he'll probably just have his full uniform and shirtless.

Hm, well.
This is something, I don't quite get.
Alright, if damaged costumes don't look the same as the normal costumes damaged in battle, I understand to make some.

But why don't they just add for every character else to have the "normal" battle damage at the beginning of a fight?
I mean, just as if health was low and so on, but from the start (of course just the clothing, the health can be normal high).

Would be nice if that was in imho.

WOW.
I love having a large variety of stages. Penguin Village should be fun. X3

I'm still holding out for another winter-themed stage (didn't one of the Budoukais have a snow stage?)

Neon Z · Post by **Neon Z** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 2:30 pm

Zangya wasn't "fast enough"? Confused Hardly. She's a freaking speed demon. Not on someone like Butta's level of course, but certainly not a character who I'd consider to be lacking in the quickness department by any means.

IIRC, Her heavy hit just after kicking the opponent up is rather slow and her paralyzing Blast 1 is slow too. In any case, I'm not saying that she is slow, just that she isn't really fast enough to make up for her random lack of energy.

I wonder if one could say that Zangya was stronger than a SSJ.
I mean, the whole time, Bojack's team teamed up against everyone and fought as a real "team" (while Gohan or Trunks fought "alone").

I wasn't necessarily saying that she was stronger than movie #9's SSJs, but Bojack's henchmen must have been, at least, stronger than Android #17, #18 and even #16 in order to keep up and hurt Cell Games SSJs- yet, Spike gave her stats worse than #18's. In fact, her HP, the biggest problem, is on par with Videl's...

Maybe something more like:

It's getting a little ridiculous, baragon_kun. You will not be warned any further.

Yeah, that would be pretty cool. Blue having his DB movie 3 outfit would rock, but I doubt they'll do it.

The original Budokai games did that. Though they also gave hims silver armor instead of green.

Here are some others I'd like to see;

Baba's palace
Red Ribbon HQ
Annoyoichi Budokai arena
Inside Buu
Serpent Road
Kaio's world
Karin Tower
Dr. Gero's laboratory
Babidi's spacship
Shinseiju (Tree of Might)
Dr. Wheelo's laboratory
Garlic Jr.'s castle
Big Ghetti Star
"New" Planet Vegeta (Movie 8 )

I think we may be getting the Otherworld Tournament ring. Nothing confirmed yet but we are getting the Otherworld Tournament mode as shown by a scan. So it's only logical that we'd get the arena too. I don't know, they've not hyped up the arena's much and the game is coming out pretty soon in Japan.

King Kai's planet would be neat but I don't think they could do it. Not with the design style of the BT games. They wouldn't be able to properly program a ground. It'd end up that if you were on the 'bottom' side of the planet you'd be flying upside down in comparison to the ground. The Budokai games could have done it easily enough, though.

By Karin's tower I assume you mean the base of it, right? Yeah, that'd be cool to have back. Haven't had that since Budokai 1. And it'd be useful for story mode since that's where Goku fights against Tao.

but you can costimize the Number of HP bars you want to have in some odes, like VS Right????

Sure, you can boost them by boosting the HP stat. But even so the stats only boost so much. Someone with 2 health bars given a full health stat will still have less health than someone given 6 bars at start who's got a full health stat. And boosting their health requires having enough potara's to do so which takes way too much fucking time. It's takes more time to get effective characters in the BT games than it does to get 100% in B3.

I hated that in BT2, having to add capsules to highten their health. I'd much rather be able to choose the amount of health bars you start with after you've selected your character in versues mode. Man typing on a Wii is a pain in the arse.

That's why I'm looking so much forward to how they're going to use the Z-Points system.

Just a question: Where exactly is the snowy stage in Budokai 2 from? Having never played the game, I can't draw any clues from it.
