"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE" Official Discussion Thread

[Jaruka]

I'm really hoping they just aren't able to reveal customization for the official characters right now. Not to the same extent as the avatars of course, but just being able to mix and match their own costumes with their attacks and transformations in whatever combination you want. Not being able to select Goku in his damaged Freeza Arc costume as a SS3, or Vegeta as a Super Saiyan in his Saiayan Arc armor will suck. =/

It's not that they didn't say whether you could or not, they outright said you couldn't. If we're getting something they'll usually say 'we can't talk about that' but this was outright denied. Perhaps it was a mistake, we'll see.

so how do the transformations work? is it like tenckaichi or budokai?

When you transform your ki depletes but you have unlimited use of super moves whilst you're transformed. When it's over though, your ki/stamina is locked out for a certain period of time.

As for the stream being bad news, it's actually been great. Lots of cool stuff and lots to look forward to.

so if i was goku could i transform into ssj1, ssj2, and ssj3, and the higher the transformation the faster the ki depletes?

They didn't say but I would assume so unless they don't have added strength to their prior form when used.

It's also worth noting that when they used Appule his health went down very, very fast. This is because the official characters have stats.

I know what they said, but what kind of response you get about questions depends on who you are talking to. We had interviews with people saying you couldn't take your avatars beyond Super Saiyan, and now we have Super Saiyan 2 and "we can't reveal everything".

It doesn't bode well that most of their responses today were basically "stay tuned, we have more to announce", while saying we can't customize the official characters. I'm just hoping someone was confused and meant we don't have the same range of customization for them as we do with the avatars (no stats, no costumes that don't belong to them, no attacks from other characters, etc), because not even allowing us to customize the official characters at all would be VERY disappointing. It would honestly be a bit asinine if I can't even pick if I want Buu Arc Goku to have SS, SS2 or SS3 as his transformation...

[CM101Play]

I wouldn't say it is VERY disappointing. It isn't great, but it isn't really much of a negative. Just my opinion.

Now we need to wait and see if they confirm that we can learn the Super Saiyan 3 Ultimate move transformation skill.

That's probably the biggest question that caused them to hesitate to answer complete with a hesitant, silent answer.

[dualist]

Wouldn't be the end of the world for me if we can't edit the standard characters. Although I do think it is kind of foolish to restrict transformations to certain costume; just seems like an unnecessary issue with the game that easily could've been avoided. Not a deal breaker though.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Definitely not a deal breaker, because the new story and characters are more important than customization of the normal characters. Still major points off if I were reviewing it or something though. Especially when the rest of the game has a fairly extreme focus on customization. The basic standard customization from games like Raging Blast should be available for the standard characters too.

Honestly I'm just gonna skip transformations if SSJ4 isnt a option.

:/ You're kidding right? It's one thing to edit the hair models for the first three Super Saiyan levels (and the possible Grades considering I noticed "Super Vegeta" as an option), but Super Saiyan 4? Totally different story. Thank god they already shot it down earlier.

The first 3 forms bore me honestly. We have seen them so much that I'm burnt out on it. SSJ4 is the only form I thoroughly enjoy these days so if its off the table ill just go the Mystic route and stay in base while maxing my stats.

To each his own I suppose.

It seems Goku has 15 alternate outfits, thats crazy!

Given what we've apparently just learned, it makes sense now. They are probably going to have multiples of the same costumes. Like his Cell/Buu Arc Dogi, that would be three costumes off the list by having a version with SS, one with SS2 and one with SS3. Maybe the same for the BOG dogi too. :/

I demand his 59 Jacket.

[dualist]

I'm very curious to see what the earthlings will get for transformations or if they get any at all. And seeing that Freeza's transformations or separate characters, will the Freeza CaC get the Frieza Final form transformation? And what about Majins? Still lot of questions to be answered.

[sintzu]

Good to finally know the amount of characters who'll be in the game which will be over 70.

[supersaiyan DbZ fan]

Is SS4 Gogeta Really confirmed?
If so, my life has come full circle

[supersaiyan DbZ fan]

Oh and One more thing, will XV be 60fps on xbox one?

[SSJ God Gogeta]

Is SS4 Gogeta Really confirmed?
If so, my life has come full circle

We got him in the datamine as well as seeing the 100x Big Bang Kamehameha in the ultimate category during the livestream.
I say the chances of him confirmed are pretty good.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

The honest short answer is, we don't know.

There are files in the mined game data that suggest Gogeta is included. We do not yet have confirmation of whether this is his SS form, SS4 form or both though. There is evidence for both sides, such as attacks from his SS4 form as an example. This could be meaningless though as there are attacks from characters not in the game, or they could be giving it to his SS self to flesh out his moves. Alternatively, there is data for the Yi Xing Long character in the game, and someone else has provided extracted sound data for Janenba. So the matter is just a mess of confusion right now.
