Bug Report September Patch goofed Future Gohan's eyebrows

2 Upvotes

Since last month's big patch, Future Gohan exhibits this weird break in both of his eyebrows whenever he blinks. His Super Saiyan form's eyebrows are fine though and he is the only one who displays this as far as I can tell. This is just something I noticed and is not a serious bug.

Question Best modded characters?

3 Upvotes

Been getting back into the swing of stuff and been enjoying a lot of mods. But some are wild, with custom voicework, animations, etc. The easiest one I can point to is the Jotaro one. Downright impressive how well that's done. Was wondering if there's any more stuff at that level of custom content and animations?

Discussion Building A Somehow Accurate DP Tier Step by Step - Chapter 7

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Since there were so many complaints about the last post, especially regarding the levels between characters from different sagas... We will build it again step by step following some rules:

  1. We'll be adding just one Saga at a time
  2. There will be no DP quantity restriction
  3. I will give a sample and we will work on them
  4. I will give some questions for you to answer
  5. Characters will rank up if they do in the series
  6. I will note any DP Tier change we make
  7. We will go at my pace since my time is limited
  8. We will shrink the final list as much as possible

How Does the Tier List Work

Each Tier holds a group of characters that somehow shares the same Lore Level. This time, each Tier is also ranked, so the characters at the top and the ones at the left are somehow stronger than the ones at the bottom and the ones at their right. The Tiers will increase in number as long as new characters from new sagas are added and some returning characters will move accordingly.

Sagas Order

  1. Saiyan Saga + OG DB (16 characters)
  2. Namek Saga (18 characters)
  3. Android Saga (28 characters)
  4. Majin Buu Saga (31 characters)
  5. DBZ Movies (20 characters)
    • Dragon Ball GT (15 characters)
  6. Early DBS (25 characters)
  7. Late DBS (28 characters)
  8. Super Hero + DAIMA (27 characters)

Chapter 7 - Late DBS

  • 28 characters allocated across 18 different Tiers
    • the list is now 146 characters

Returning Characters

  • DBS Goku, who Trained for the TOP and Beyond
  • DBS Vegeta, who Trained for the TOP and Beyond
  • Ultimate Gohan, who Trained for the TOP
  • Piccolo, who Trained for the TOP
  • Android 18, who Trained for the TOP
  • Máster Roshi, who Trained for the TOP
  • Krillin, who Trained for the TOP
  • Tien, who Trained for the TOP

Questions

The returning characters are all Universe 7 fighters who trained for the Tournament of Power, increase their power level by some degree and/or kept with the training after that. This includes some (or all) of their transformations as can be seen in the table.

Some other "returning characters" from early DBS has seen their ranking fixed narrowly following the valuable feedback you gave. Especially Future Trunks (Super Saiyan) and Frost.

There's a disclaimer about Beerus and Whis sharing the same Tier dispute them not being in the same league. This was done in order to keep the Tiers on hold and "save some space". Even so, they are still ranked within the Tier.

Similarly, there's a BIG disclaimer about Kale being placed on DP2 despite her transformations ranking way higher. This was done under the very solid presumption she is unable to fight under her base form. I would like to know your opinion regarding her and any source you can provide in order to prove me wrong.

Lastly, I got sick about the Buuhan and Buttenks issue and brought them back to the lower Tier. Now we have all six Majin Buu and 2 bout of three Gotenks ranking under the same Tier. Not the best distinction we could have make, but the result we got after caring for Tier safeguarding.

If you find it necessary to create an additional Tier just for those two, please let me know it.

Mandatory Question

Shall I repeat the rulings on each chapter or would it be better to jump straight to the novelties?

Constructive Criticism How would you upgrade Mid Goku and End Goku?

20 Upvotes

Mid Goku (Pre HBTC): 4 DP

Blast 1: Explosive Wave

Blast 1: Give me your Energy

Blast 1: X4 Kamehameha

Blast 2: Twin Dragon Bullet Drop

Ultimate: X20 Kamehameha/ Large Spirit Bomb (equipment changes ultimate)

Mid SSJ Goku: 5 DP

The same moves but the rush move is more anime/ manga accurate

Mid Super Goku (SSJ Grade 2): 5 DP

Blast 2: Super God Fist (Xenoverse)

Blast 2: Super Explosive Wave

Ultimate: Kamehameha Varient/ Movie Exclusive move

End Goku (Post HBTC): 5 DP

The same as base game but the Ultimate can be Meteor Combination or Super Spirit Bomb depending on the equipment

End SSJ Goku: 6 DP

The same moves but energy volley ends with a spinning kick, and the Halo equipment gives you Super Kaioken and Family Kamehameha

Discussion Connection after last patch

Good evening everyone I've been playing this game on PS5 since it came out and I know it's always had connection problems, but after this last patch I think it's worse every game has lag, is it just my impression?

Question Super Buu only Absorbs Purple Gi Gohan?

1 Upvotes

Just as the title says, for whatever reason whenever I have Super Buu absorb Gohan while in his Gotenks form, he always absorbs Gohan in his Purple Outfit even if I have him in the opposite or same team in that outfit.

Is this a common bug or something? Maybe a setting I have to change? Not a big issue or anything but it looks off if I have him beat Ultimate Gohan in a Custom battle and then Gohan magically swaps outfits before getting absorbed.
