So I found something interesting when I played the demo tonight.
I checked out the command list and for certain attacks it listed unblockable and undodgeable. Know we all know what unblockable means. You can’t block the move. Naturally you cannot block ultimate attacks or throws. But what does undodgeable mean? I take it to mean that you can’t teleport counter or do constant dodges with the X button.
This is great news since it really makes TCing less abusive. I think it said that throws were both undodgeable and unblockable, which means we are gonna have to really practice throw breaks since those will be much more abusable if this is all true.
i dont like him/her (or maybe not like the saiyans, and the main villians), this is mostly because my friends (they play in wii) cant beat me , so i begined to play with random, because that i learned to play with dodoria, and other lot of weirdos, like butter and gesse, they are really good if you know how to play with them :wgrin:
Ok, so the undodgable thing only applies to sidestep dodges me thinks. So not too bad really. It limits the dodging system, but doesn’t shut it down entirely.
I have noticed that in every vid Goku only has 3 ki bars. This sucks. It means that even if Goku forces and airdodge, an opponent like Freeza will have ki to spare for more Teleports, making Goku near useless. Dammit. Hopefully one of the other saiyans has enough ki to be a threat.
Alright, to recap, you can’t sidestep undodgeable attacks? Like, what exactly does that mean? They can’t physically sidestep, or will they get hit if they try? I didn’t really get that on the command list, either.
I highly doubt you’ll be correct, EmblemLord. If you have seen Yamcha’s bar, it’s about five or six bars, where Goku’s is only three. It’s almost like SFIII where characters have different amounts for ultimate attacks (and yes, you can change what ultimate attack you go into battle with).
For undodgeable I’m thinking it means you can’t do the tap dodge. Tap dodge is when you tap the guard button in time with your opponents attacks and your character will avoid each blow with swift movements.

It’s cool to see them fight, but their players are horrible (or maybe it’s CPU… that sounds more likely). 17 looks pretty cool, and 16 doesn’t look slow as hell anymore.
Okay so I’m not a fan of DBZ but when I heard ‘Online Fighting Game’ for PS3, I immediately jumped on the wagon. I know there’s Tekken, but that is way too frame-specific. I’m assuming that this isn’t? I’m going to try this out but which similar games should I pick up to get a feel for it? Any n00b information on how to get started would be helpful!
Also, is it possible to play this with a stick or are there too many buttons?
You’d do horrible with a stick playing this game, actually. If you want to get a quick “feel” get one of the PSP DBZ games or Budokai 3 for the PS2. If you want to check out the mechanics for cancel combos in this game, check out this video:
Homie uses Goku to show you can cancel ki attacks right into melee attacks.
