Dragon Ball FighterZ

Another datamining video. It's kinda interesting.
 
The announcer just says that to let you know your opponent is cooler.
 
I was all set to try some Goku Blue in matches today and the PC servers started maintenance right as I was walking to World Match.

Well, anyway, I've been playing 18/Trunks/YGohan as Team Cell Saga and 18/Yamcha/AGohan as Team Born With It (their hair :P). I've now been playing 18/Yamcha/YGohan with no discernable team theme, sadly. Been working simple frametraps into my game more; I feel like a lot of this game's going to come down to "jab or keep blocking?" I started special canceling into 18's command grab too.

Also, I just played two sets against Android 21s and I'm really hearing that Rise Kujikawa.
 
Crossup protection bums me out a little. I saw a gif where a person jumps over an opponent's head and then blocks super by holding forward. I was also a bit disappointed by no assist crossups cause protectio, but it is what it is.

There are crossups, but there are quite a few restrictions like not being able to crossup an airborne opponent.

The biggest thing that is really driving me nuts is how shit the swapping is. I can't use F+Assist or "Hold" Assist. Every time it's just Assist and gets my shit pushed in.
 
After realizing you can't swap right after tech or knockdown, I haven't had problems with not getting tags when I want to.

I've only had problems with getting tags instead of assists because of sudden crossups and the game's weird facing rules (I still haven't figured it out, like if I use Trunks' auto-crossup I can go into a special but the motions are reversed).
 
Even when I'm no where near the enemy I get assist instead of Tag. it's been driving me bonkers.

Yeah my scrub ass isn't used to the lock-out timers. They are pretty hefty for even basic things, though I actually enjoy it like that. I just need to get better.
 
So if you do a superjump and continue holding up, you fall slightly slower and control left/right movement. Superjump into double-jump also has this.

I mash cM too much. cH too, actually, especially for people who aren't Trunks.

Dunno if this was posted, but I think it will help you if you didn't see it
 
Okay so big stuff happening tonight. So okay you guys know the tournament is tonight at 7pm pst, but added on top that we got two things to put there.

1. We have a matcherio page set up to test the waters to have it either as a weekly or have all donations saved up for the season ending tournament to add to the pot bonus at the end of the season.

https://matcherino.com/tournaments/9702/description

2. We got ChruncyRoll codes! 10 of them! We are giving them away tonight on stream for those who are in chat! So not only have a chance to play DBFZ, but also catch up on it too!

Reminder this is for the PC version only.
 
Having a fun time with the game, just started playing online yesterday and getting my butt kicked. Currently my team is Nappa/Vegeta SSJ/Frieza. I always lose the early game, but I can knock out 2 guys on the opponent's team with just Frieza. I think my issue is trying to initiate the fight in the beginning of the match, does anyone have any advice?
 
I'd play more (both the game and online) if it had the ring match issue fixed... I haven't played it in a week

Mine is the constant lobby disconnects. I haven't put in more than 15 minutes a day in about a week. Too bad because the game's actually pretty good.

Yes, the annoying, blonde, sunglasses-wearing commentator is in this. WHY?!
 
Because he's a huge fan favorite, and has been around since DB classic
it'd be a crime not to include him somewhere

If you really hate him you can replace his commentating with another character. So far I saw you can use Yamcha and Piccolo too.

I'm dying to know if you can replace him with silence because if i remember correctly he pops off at something happening in the replay about every 7 frames.
 
The announcer options are on the replay list screen.

Instead of anywhere in the Options menus.

Yes you can. You can set it by pressing the "Y" button on Xbox controler, once you enter the replay menu.
 
I'm starting to get pretty aggressive with Krillin XD Tossing the rock (usually M version) tends to open people up. It's kind of hilarious.
 
I tried Krillin in Training a little bit, would probably just go back to 18 for that corner oki pressure since I find hers easier.

And I'm now running a YGohan/Trunks/Piccolo team. Might swap Piccolo for Yamcha again, since I learned a bit more about him. But I'm back to playing Skullgirls now.

*sighs* disappoint.
At least Broly opens things up for all the movie characters. Janemba and Dr. Wheelo plz.

Turles alt. color for Bardock, obviously.
 
I was expecting Broly to make his debut in DBFZ. I wonder how he's gonna play.
 
Here's the scan.

Nooooooo

They're acknowledging it

I was just thinking about how this game is only 80% uninteresting characters. I'm glad to see they are adding a few more.

Janemba or gtfo.
 
In gameplay or personality?

Broly could be interesting in gameplay, Janemba doesn't have a great personality either.

But yeah, I really want Roshi and Launch. And both the swordies right now are Saiyans.
