So, the first character pack is out. I haven't picked it up yet myself (likely going to wait until all of them are out), but from what I'm seeing, there seems to be some actual new story mode content in this update as well? That's unexpected, I figured it'd just be characters and missions.

I haven't played the game in a bit now (had too many other games to get to, and it had gotten to where I was just grinding away the same I do in Xenoverse 2, and this game is just not quite as grind-easy or fun in comparison), but hopefully the new stuff turns out worthwhile.

Wow, I'm the last post for a while... guess we all share the same level of "hype" for this title...

So glad I bought it thru the PSN store... where I can't return it.

SIDENOTE: I do wanna play as Bakugo. I can do that for a while before I never play this game again...

yet it still somehow sold a million more than it should. J-Stars was comfy, I wish this game was just a sequel with a bit fixed mechanics. None of this realistic (ugly) graphics this has.

To be fair, there are a lot of anime shovelware games that reach a million sales on name alone.

At least they don't look as bad as Jump Force does. I hate the realistic graphics style, ugh. Spike should go on retirement already.
The new OPM game they're making is taking assets from JF too.

For me, it wasn't that the game was realistic. It's that they looked ugly and plastic. I think making anime characters look realistic could work, but this wasn't the way to do it.

They should have went with a GGXrd/DBFZ graphics style for Jump Force.

Did you ever find out if there was more story mode? I think I looked it up and never found anything.
Yamcha almost certainly did not cheat on Bulma:
He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)
He suggested they settle down in the Trunks saga.
Alternate future Trunks is not a reliable source.
Toriyama wanted new SSJ Kids and not make new characters.

I was reading reviews of the game and they all make it seem like the only redeeming quality is the PVP.


How good did this game do?

Sales wise it must be doing something right considering the amount of support it's still getting.

I've seen the gameplay and some reviews, and the fighting is tolerable, but everything else is bad.....Really really bad. How did a game that drop the ball so hard make a profit?

Sorry for the really late reply

I think the concept of being able to put everyone's favorite characters against each other made up for all its shortcomings.

I can't even call it low standards at this point. That's just sad.

Oh Hi
Please check out this Video of a mod I made for Jump Force. Yardrat Goku & Yardrat Vegeta! Would really appreciate the view

I genuinely believe Dragon Ball is at the top where it is now because it has accurately and appropriately represented martial arts like no other anime & manga out there. Getting stronger through hardship & getting rewarded for hard work. And the show is funny & easily "digestible" people may say the plot is too cookie cutter sometimes & while I would very much like more grey elements and more mature story lines. The story's simplistic nature lends itself to be very easy to pick up.
