----------- I hope the roster covers a lot more than just up to Buu saga.

^True.
I am the only one tired of seeing Golden Frieza on everything? I mean, I would have been fine with it in this games reveal if Goku and Vegeta were also in their God forms, but between the anime and this it's getting a bit too ridiculous.

Since this game is called Dragon Ball FighterZ, I'm pretty sure the roster will be composed of Z characters for the most part at least. And since this is an Arc System title, the roster won't be huge either. Quality over quantity.

I'm expecting to see SSGod or Blue somewhere in this game if they saw fit to include Golden Frieza. I know they were probably justifying his inclusion since Golden Frieza appeared in what was technically a DBZ movie before that arc became canon in super. With that said, SSGod and SSBlue should also be included by that logic. |

I expect them to add them, but my fear is that they will make them into separate characters since these versions of them can't even transform into Super Saiyan God. Clones are never a good thing since they make the roster feel empty. Also, I hope "Monaka" is in the roster, that would be funny to see.

I'd rather they not include every single transformation from the franchise. That leads to a lot of clones and balancing issues that have plagued the games for decades.
Keeping the characters limited to one form is perfectly fine by me. I'm satisfied ArcSys chose SSJ2 Gohan from the Cell Saga to represent his character. While it's obvious the roster has room to grow (Future Trunks, Piccolo, etc.), being too faithful to the lore will lead to a broken game. |

Speaking of which, it looks like we may be getting characters from more than just DBZ. https://www.reddit.com/r/dbz/comment...iew_with_devs/ Fast forward to 6:02. Without flat out confirming anyone specific, this developer interview basically confirmed that we can look forward to characters from GT and Super. |

The most Hiroki stated was that characters would not be limited to just DBZ. Because they want to appeal to dragonball fans of every age and era, all that confirms is Super because it's currently airing and would serve as promotion for the anime and manga. Even with that aside, Frieza's Golden form was in the game, and he was one of the first characters in the roster anyway. GT has long been over, so there is much less incentive to include that. Currently it's not even a guarantee that movie characters will show up. |

Been watching TFS stream the beta today. Haven't really noticed any server issues on their end. The game looks beautiful and the battles look fluid as hell. As someone who doesn't really care for fighting games outside of "party" fighting games, I'm really excited about this one. Sure, it's basically MvC with DBZ, but it's MvC with DBZ!

Not sure if they're server issues but sometimes I'll be waiting over 25 minutes for a match to start. Although these lobbies are full to the brim and it's a beta, so it's fine. I would say Buu is my least favorite character to play so far, with Piccolo and Frieza being my favorites. Hoping for at least a few Super characters, seeing as Tien, Yamcha, and a new Toriyama designed OC Android 21 just got announced today.

Got to play the game today! First impression: I really wanted to play a whole lot more. The battle system is reminiscent of the MvC series, but all the DB gimmicks are in there too. Launches, rush attacks, ki blasts, a few special moves per character -more than I'd expected, really- and combination attacks with certain teams. Ki bars filling up to 7, with specials costing up to 3 bars per cast...and if you get 30+ hit combos, you have a chance to get a dragonball: after getting all 7 and perform a straight combo with max ki, you actually summon the dragon for a wish! Immortality and ultimate power sound nice, but "revive my allies" has never been more awesome. Complete table turner, I love the concept.
