"Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2" Official Discussion Thread

[Chuquita]

My work-around for the stamina break in PQs is to play the distance game and become the team sniper. I let the other two computer-controlled members of my team battle the opponents, get far enough away where I can still lock-on yet the opponent I'm locked on to won't prioritize me, charge up and start shooting ki ultimates at them.

It works. It's not as fun as physically wailing on opponents like I do in main storyline battles and most of the PQ's, but when the AI opponent in a PQ gets challengingly aggressive and my controller doesn't respond to any of my button presses during, it works.

It seems like modders (namely Mastaklo) were able to unlock 11 new slots in the PC version, but no more than that... I think that gives us a clue as to how many DLC characters there'll be?

If for nothing else, then for fun... What would those 11 characters be? After the already confirmed Kyabe and Frost, these are, I think, the most obvious guesses:

1. SSR Black
2. Zamasu
3. Merged Zamasu
4. DBS Trunks' weird new Super Saiyajin form
5. SSB Vegito
6. Hit's rummored new form (Toki-Tobashi Improved, I guess)

What would be the other three? Vados? Champa? Monaka? But then DLC would be all Super-related. Plus, Monaka would be bleh.

Anyway, just a fun thing to pass the time while the DLC doesn't come.

I think SSJR Black will be a preset.

Baby Vegeta
Bojack
Super 13
Vados
Champa
Adult/Xeno Gotenks?

[Anime Kitten]

I think SSJR Black will be a preset.

No. If the Supervillains are separate slots, Rosé Black will be.

I'm hoping for Chronoa, Towa's other forms, Demigra, and possibly Super/Final Form Mira. But my top two are Chronoa and Demon God Towa, though I find both unlikely.

[sintzu]

What would those 11 characters be ?

SsjR Black
Zamasu.
Merged Zamasu.
Champa.
Vados.
Cabba.
Frost.
SsjB Vegetto.

I think Trunks' form will be an alternate version of the character we already have so I'm not going to count him as someone new.

I think the other 3 could be Dabura, Baby Vegeta & Super #13 or Bojack.

I don't see Xeno Gotenks being in... not on this Xenoverse. I think they maybe wait until Xenoverse 3 to introduce more Heroes elements, as they did with Time Breaker Bardock this time. Baby, and especially Bojack and Super 13 I can see, what with them using movie villains as henchmen from "alternate timelines" in a very cool way on this storyline.

I find them both unlikely, too. Especially Chronoa, she seems like a supporting character mostly. Also, yeah, that's why I think SSR Black will be separate. Because SSBs are, and though not explicitly said, SSR is pretty much Black's equivalent to SSB.

I don't think Trunks' form will be a transformation, because it seems to be his "equivalent" of the god forms/untrained god form or something like that, and also, with it's design is pretty unique in the anime, as it is mostly aura based, I don't see how they to it unless is a new model. Dabura, being Towa's brother, could make for an interesting sidequest DLC. I would love to redo his battle with Super Trunks

She is a fighter, she's just too lazy and sends Trunks and the TP to do all the dirty work.

Dabura, being Towa's brother, could make for an interesting sidequest DLC. I would love to redo his battle with Super Trunks

That is my hope for the Black Saga DLC, otherwise for the story it'll just be us fighting the same enemy for a few missions until Merged Zamasu.

[Doctor.]

How about having Demigra as a playable character already?

So far, I am satisfied with XV2 roster, except for Buu arc characters... I seriously miss Buu with Gohan and Gotenks absorbed and Dabura.
Then I will be able to leave in peace. Also, except for Super characters, would like Bojack, Android 13 and Salza.

TB Bardock isnt from Heroes. He was front and center in DB Online along with Towa and Mira. The only thing Heroes did for TB Bardock was give him the SSJ forms but the origin of the character itself is indeed DBO. Also dont hold your breath on more Heroes related content making into the Xenoverse games. If I recall correctly the devs have said they want Xenoverse to have its own identity and not just copy and paste the stuff Heroes expanded upon into the game (even if the Heroes stuff is way better). Its why instead of Super Mira

[spoiler][/spoiler]

we got that psuedo SSJ4 fusion of him and Towa and also why Towa still had her basic design and didnt move onto her Darkness form.

All right, guys. Kanassa is going to help me vote for Chronoa, and someone else will help me vote for Demon God Towa. I honestly wouldn't care if they weren't in any kind of story; I'd just want them as playable.

But to be honest, I don't expect them, because the last two are probably Pseudo SSJB Future Trunks and SSJB Kaioken Goku (which essentially was also datamined).

Goku was datamined as a variation, not a seperate character

I guess I'm alone in not wanting Champa and Vados in this game. The fact we havent really seen them do nearly enough to fully make a moveset for them makes including them in this rather pointless. Not even Whis managed to get a new moveset to better portray his fighting style in FNF. At the very least if they did that Vados could have been given his old one. I really dont see the point in putting them in, at least for now.

Champa and Vados could easily be supplemented for characters like Bojack and Zangya, perhaps Super 13. Not to mention other GT characters like Super Bebi Vegeta, GT Uub/Majuub, General Rildo. Id even take Chilled and Hatchyack at this point.

Oh, really? I thought it was a slot. That's a lot better, then. Hopefully we'll also get one more variation each for SSGSS Goku and SSGSS Vegeta, for their Zamasu Arc outfits.

I guess I'm alone in not wanting Champa and Vados in this game.

You're not. I don't want them either, for many of the reasons you mentioned. I still don't believe that Heroes characters can't be included without story. Just stick them in PQs. I just want the characters/forms.

If they really want to do "Heroes" content, they can easily add stuff like SSJ3 Vegeta and Broly, both of which have been around since 2009. Id kill to have more Heroes content as well believe me. When this game was announced I was hoping for stuff like Super Mira and going down into Makai. I'm preaching to the choir when I say the story is easily Xenoverse 2's biggest fault and it was a mistake adding movie characters.

You could easily have the movie characters but have them in Time Breaker uniforms and still have the Makai subplot involved.

But Hit barely had a moveset of his own beyond his Time-Skip ability and he was thrown into the game during very last stage of post development on the game.

So I've been playing Training Mode, and as a random occurrence during a Goku Black VS Goku match on Open Field, I escaped the stage boundaries.

Not a fan of having 85% of the DLC being characters from DBS. There's Z characters who deserve priority over them imho
