Dragon Dragon, FIGHT a Dragon! [FighterZ]

BucketmanBucketman Call meSkraggRegistered User regular
LAST TIME ON FIGHTING GAMES:

Arc System Works in association with Bandai Namco, created what is so far the best Dragon Ball themed fighting game to every grace this earth. Perhaps the wished for it on the Dragon Balls?

Anyway its out on PC, XboxOne, and PS4. And it looks beautiful:

Or you can turn the graphics all the way down and pretend your playing on a Playstation 1

The controls feel great on this one, and theres none of that cumbersome flight fighting from some of the previous games.

So lets play together and talk about how cool Tien is.

    This game is all kinds of cool. I just really need to practice a bunch so online matches stop being about watching my guys in a permanent horizontal state of ass being kicked. Puts a damper on the fun.

    I can't bring myself to play the bad guys, they were so bad that I hate them.

    Right now I'm rolling Piccolo, Krillen, and Trunks

    Piccolo was a bad guy once!

    The story mode for this game is long. Maybe too long, with too many filler battles. There's a bunch of delightful character moments and conversations, though.

    But anyway, I need to practice and git gud. Studs_Mackenzie needs to represent and not get totally bodied by every single opponent like in the beta.

    People always share that low PC graphics settings shot/video but seems like they never dig further into that thread to find out the game supports a resolution of 320x200.

    Look at this:



    I haven’t had a lot of time to play but I think my team is Cell/16/Goku Black but I kinda want to switch out Black fo Nappa just so I can run team big boys.

    I'm getting the same feeling of fun that I did from Budokai 3.

    I'm really enjoying this game.

  • XehalusXehalus Registered User regular
    SSG Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan is my team right now

    subject to change

  • KyouguKyougu Registered User regular
    Yamcha/Tien/Krillin is my team so far.

    I need to wrap my head around combos in this game. I can do basic stuff, but doing a combo, bouncing them off a wall, pursuing with the dragon rush and then continuing that combo is something that seems beyond my grasp right now

  • King RiptorKing Riptor Registered User regular
    I'm digging Fat Buu,Cell and Hit.

    Hit is really complicated though . Not difficult to learn but tricky. Buu has really strong but easy to predict supers and Cell is just cool.

    Freeza is weird They gave him the only proper transformation in the game and if you fuck up when it runs out youre open to huge payback.

    Beerus looks fun. Still figuring him out. love his animations.

    Lack of Mr. Satan is disappointing

    Still liking this over all.

    Add me on Live - Jack Lupus. I'm not on a ton except on my days off but hit me up if you see me I'll play a match or two

    I've mostly been playing the story mode so far. I had expected 21's majin form to be the result of a long evil quest, but I guess she has it right from the start.

  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    The story mode is basically non stop Fan Service and I love it even if it is super grindy

    The only thing I don't like about the story, and this is actually kind of a big bummer, is you have to button through every individual line of dialogue

    Let me just watch the thing!

    Trying to find a good point-man for a team containing Vegeta and Tien. They're well-rounded characters with good assists, so almost anyone could head the team, really. I've been experimenting with Kid Buu and 16, and am thinking of maybe using A-Gohan. But there's so many characters that I'm truly unsure of who I actually want. Goku Black, maybe? Captain Ginyu or Freeza? Cell?

    Krillin is maybe the one character in the game I absolutely do not want to play, but I'm always excited when someone is good with Krillin

    I'll put this in this thread too

    There are currently two conflicting reports of who the 8 DLC characters are, both claim to be datamined out of the PC version of the game
    - Bardock
    - Broly
    - Fuu
    - Goku (Kid)
    - Janemba
    - Jiren
    - Kefla
    - Toppo
    - Android 17
    - Bardock
    - Broly
    - Cooler
    - Goku (Base)
    - Vegeta (Base)
    - Vegito
    - Zamasu

    The second one is more dubious to me because it's based off of who is getting lobby avatars added, and several of them are characters who already appear in the game anyway, the first feels much more plausible

    Alternatively, maybe they're both fake!

    6F32U1X.png
  • BlankZoeBlankZoe Registered User regular
    Yeah I don't buy that second one

    4 of those characters are already modeled and in the game, having them be DLC would be lame as hell, especially
    since they all would be similar/closes of existing characters

    Movie vilians all suck so I'm hoping neither is right.

    I want guys from super. I think they got the most of the A list from Z already.

    That said the top list is better than the bottom

    Who is Fuu?

    there were actually some cutscenes that made me laugh

    I'm a few chapters in and it is really fun

    Mostly because, unlike the good guys, you almost never actually see characters like Cell and Freiza interact so it is really neat to watch them butt heads

    Toriyama made Beerus and by all accounts is just his actual cat so that's different.

    I should clarify I mean the original 12 movies. The super movies aren't terrible. Little bloated but at least they try.

    Who is Fuu?

    Fuu is an original character for the Xenoverse games

    again, another thing I find very plausible about that list, a little bit of cross-promotion in there and a lot of Super characters

  • LockedOnTargetLockedOnTarget Registered User regular
    If they added a Xenoverse character I would much rather have Towa.

    More lady characters please.

  • EnlongEnlong Registered User regular
    edited January 2018
    Yeah. I'd much prefer Towa with Mira assists (17 or Ginyu Force-style) than Fuu.

    Her level 3 could be paralyzing the enemy with dark magicscience and then having a Mira, Bardock, or slew of movie villains beat the crap out of them.

    There's Beerus. He's got a sizable tail.

  • ThetherooThetheroo Registered User regular
    I've been trying to get into Hit because a lot of his moves seem really cool

    However, he is slow as fuck and it is really hard to zone someone out enough so he can get into his stance and start doing some work

    Maybe I'm just terrible at this

    I would have had a lot more patience for the story mode if they didn't lock Android 21 behind beating all of it
