Dragon Ball FighterZ: Legendary Saiyans Edition

[The_Shakunetsu]

Mostly characters from Z and Super with flight and super speed to smoothly worked with the game mechanics.

I hope there GT and OAV.

The thought of a game with a huge playerbase and xrd type lobbies

[Valoon]

Imagine the lobby in a space like where is Dende and Mr Popo (I don’t remember the name). And then you can go to training by going into a door that is actually the hyperbolic time chamber.

@Killey did you use frieza? i have a question, since his kienzan is listed on the moveset as “only dodgeable”, does that mean it’s unblockable? and if so, does that mean there’s a way to “perfect block” (like instant block in GG) where you can block unblockable stuff? cause there’s a video where frieza actually blocks his kienzan on their way back

Yes, I played with the entire cast. Kienzan being unblockable was only listed in his description as this “Use the Death Saucer that can only be dodged!” but the actual command list made no mention of that. During game play both you and the opponent can block Kienzan at any point, both when launched and during its return.

oh ok, i hoped for a perfect block thingie maybe the description means it’s unblockable but they yet have to implement it? seems weird

I would be surprised if there was such a massive roster for a new fighter, but I suppose they have a lot to choose from and it’s getting a lot of positive headwind. As long as there’s 18 or more characters, I’ll be satisfied. Hopefully Namco throws their weight behind it right off the bat for a large roster that can be expanded for DLC. As long as they do things right (and it does look like they are) this should be a game that’ll remain popular for a very long time.

As for the 20% finished statement… I’m gonna say that’s probably heavily weighted towards story mode, which ArcSys probably considers a large amount of the work. I’m wondering what story mode will even look like. I think she said something to the effect that “it would look very different from the story mode in most fighting games.” So I’m wondering if they’ll do it like Guilty Gear and have a basic Arcade mode, but also include a TV-series style story mode that you just sit back and watch. I would be really happy if there was a 20 minute original episode focused on each character or something, using the in-game engine. I think that would be really cool, and would be a great primer for those unfamiliar with the series, and great fanservice for those who know and love it. Easy to mess up though, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t want to do that with such an established property.

Cross posting this here

I think that you are seeing it the wrong way.

By this point i assume that this 20% means getting the engine and game mechanics and all the other basic/shared & universal stuff done.
Meanwhile the other suff is being done in parallel so when they said that they have 20% of the game done it doesn’t mean that the other stuf isn’t being worked on already and maybe near being completed.
My guess is that they are basing the percentage of the project on completition of the different tasks, like stages, characters, sound, netcode, menus, story mode etc. and they assign a weight to them on how much % of the game they represent.
Plus keep in mind that those different tasks have diferent timeframes for development, so they are not done yet but doesn’tt mean that it will take them up until march 2018 to be done.
Another thing is that QA and testing is also part of the developement process, and is usually take into account on both the time windows and % value of the project.

I also think that the game started its developement way earlier than what you think, since they need to sort a lot of stuff before starting the project (contracts, leagal stuff, etc), i think that by this point they probably have around a year or maybe alittle more divided on project planning, and development with the game and probably are not counting the work done in different areas as done until they are completed so the 20% is actually underselling how much what they really have done by this point.
Besides they are not working from zero, since they already have their own engine, so is only a matter of tweaking it for the new mechanics and adding whatever new stuff that is needed.

Tomorrow… It is so close now. I think Japan is like 8 hours ahead of me so my hopes are, when I wake up I see some life changing news.

There’s no character reveals in the V-Jump mag tomorrow

[Valoon]

No but there is supposed to be some informations. I think it’s informations about the cast, so maybe like the size or something.

meh, that tweet said there were infos about new chars, how is it possible?

i even asked him confirmation about new chars for DBF and he replied “Yeah they exactly mentioned that during DBF segment in the stream (notice the faint DBF artwork at background)”

wtf?!

[Valoon]

Are they pulling a Capcom?

Wait, isn’t that image just the one that was shown at E3? it’s not supposed to be even released yet.

Nah, it’s a scan of the latest V-Jump, it always gets leaked early

you mean this vjump issue says that we can expect new char reveals on every vjump, starting from next one?

[Cronopio]

I hope for character trailers a la KOF XIV, would be hype as hell.

[Valoon]

That’s a bit weird and sad, I swear I remember that during E3 they said we’ll get something new from that magazine.

[Valoon]

Double post. For the info, I guess it was a failed translation.

Also on the tuesday show (ultrachen on twitch), James says they plan to add battle damage. I don’t know who he talked to tho.

Also David think the characters are crazy which is very different from most people who said they kinda play the same.
