I think they'll save the what if forms and characters for a sequel and in terms of Vegeta's ssj3 i think the days of it being a what if are numbered.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

No it likely wasn't complete. Still, since there wasn't a Super Vegeta 3 skill in there already with the other couple dozen Vegeta techniques, there probably won't be one in the final game either.
Vegeta is always one of the first characters shown off, so I doubt his transformations would still be unfinished by now. It's not like they removed it from the beta/test/whatever just to prevent spoilers either, considering all the other spoilery stuff they did leave in there (data for GT, Jaco, more Time Patrol stuff, "Demigra", etc).
Direct translations of the Korean DB Online timeline and guidebook.

I still have hope that it just wasn't included. Maybe I'm just a fan who wants to see SS3 Vegeta again but if they truly do think fans will be happy with the transformations, as Jason Enos said in the BGS interview, I think he could be in. If he is, I put it on the idea they saved incomplete models from being on data.

If Vegeta used the regular Super Saiyan transformation skills, then I would have said it could have been a possibility. Vegeta's transformations are listed in the data as "Super Vegeta" and "Super Vegeta 2" though, and there is no "Super Vegeta 3"...

Could he just use the regular SS3 skill? I guess. But I would think they would continue the naming scheme for him, otherwise why have it in the first place?

We also have to admit that Vegeta ssj3 is just vegeta ssj2 with different hair and nothing else (if i remember right), so they could just make another slot for him (like they did in raging blast 2) using the same moveset of ssj2 but with different hair: everybody happy :)

I must say that I really liked the Super and Ultimate attacks he had. So cool.
I liked him as an extra, Broli not so much, before it became crazy in Heroes.

I hope to see a transformation. He never got a fair power up and I'd love to see it. I think it could happen. Maybe there will be Xeno versions of other characters like Goku or Vegeta. Versions where history was changed and they are the outcomes. Like Xeno Goku wouldn't have SS3 but Xeno Vegeta would.

I always think of SS4 as an advanced Normal Saiyan state. Because it's a new body to handle the power of a Great Ape in a condense state.
To me it's just like my opinion with SSJ Future Gohan and SSJ Kid Trunks. For F. Gohan I like his SSJ look in Raging Blast 2, but hate the budokai/manga style that he was drawn with. For K. Trunks I sometimes like his anime SSJ hair, and other times it looks like a piano curved it to the left side of his head.

These 3 don't seem to have a full consistent design as I've seen SSJ F. Gohan, SSJ K. Trunks, and SSJ4 Goku all be drawn differently a significant amount of times.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

But this pic doesn't reveal, if Goku has his hair going down his back like in Xenoverse or if he doesn't.

If that's all you want, then all you want is fanservice, rather than an actual coherent story. And of course those aren't mutually exclusive; you could have a coherent story with "shine" moments! But if a story is perfectly coherent (and I'm really not seeing any compelling arguments that this one is anything but, despite constantly recurring, really poorly reasoned, attempts to argue otherwise), and you're bemoaning the lack of "shine" moments as a reason for the story's poor quality, then you're letting your thirst for "shine" moments obfuscate your ability to detect basic storytelling when it's right in front of you.

Well the hair in the back was there in the series.

Budokai 3 cel-shaded models were terrible. I guess because they were on a 2.5. plane.

Terrible in comparison I suppose, but they weren't terrible when it was first released. Doubt anyone complained back then. Thought it was the best looking DBZ game we had until Burst Limit came out.

Say what you will but I am loving the look for xeno ssj4 Goku and can't wait to see how Vegeta and Gogeta look.
I wonder if they will be in the next scan :think:. Something like the one we got with Goku and Vegito but this time Vegeta and Gogeta.

Also I really hope they add DB characters, might as well go big or go home.

The look he got in DB online will be great for Xenoverse. :D

Nope I thought SSJ4 Goku in Budokai games were horrible when Tenkaichi 1 came out.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

DB Xenoverse is not a DBZ simulator with fighting elements, it's a semi competent fighting/action game with DBZ simulation elements.
