DBZ MMORPG in 2008 - Bojack - 03-28-2007

I hope you guys don't get your hopes up too much in a game, then get crushed. Otherwise you'll get disappointed.
I point your attention to the WoW episode of South Park. AKA the best episode EVAR!1!!

I'm hoping it's not another Matrix Online. But the fanbase for this is even bigger, especially in Japan - to fuck up would be to miss a massive opportunity. Nonetheless, I'll be trying it out if/when it arrives in English, just because I've always speculated on how a DBZ-based online game might play.

Has anyone played Bid For Power? The DBZ Quake 3 MOD?

Yeh, i think i still have it....

Nope, sure don't. But I did enjoy playing it even after they couldn't use the DBZ theme anymore... it was pretty fun.
I think the only thing i worry about for this MMO is the amount of immature children that it'll attract...

If the action/flight system in this MMO are anything like the one in Bid For Power, it will be a success.
All people fantasize about doing as a DBZ character is flying around and blowing shit up anyway. If that turns out to be the whole game, I will be a happy man.

Ew, cell shaded.

This better be real though.

I'm just hoping it'll have 'instances' (sagas) with stages to the battles that have their own particular objectives. (Like zomgz, the bad guy has targeted your weakest d00d! Weakest d00d, survive until time runs out!)
But I don't think this game will attract *too* many children. There'll be some, sure, but DBZ is an *old* show, even if it is ridiculously well known in Japan. Kids these days are way more interested in their Naruto and FMA and shit, imo >_>

Bid For Power rocked in both its forms. This, maybe not so much.

This might actually get me to buy an MMORPG.
If this is pulled off with any degree of finesse or talent, I will certainly be buying it.
If only combat could be Tenkaichi-style. If this ends up being like Runescape (I punch you, you punch me, I punch you, you punch me), I might just have to shoot myself.

Interesting. I too had pondered about such a MMO long before this. We`ll see how this turns out. But we shouldn`t get our hopes up, seeing that most DBZ games turn out to be preety bad.
Still, the developers have a good basis to work on, seeing that the MMO occurs a few hundred years after the events in DBZ. Let`s see how well they use that fact.
DBZ MMORPG in 2008 - Captain Silver - 03-28-2007
Ah yeah, the fight system.
Yeah, they won't do a decent one. I know it.
It'll totally make the game suck too.
DBZ just isn't DBZ if you aren't flying around a light speed smashing someones head into a moutain, then blowing up that part of Earth.
I think it'll be like a basic fight system, like on WoW or w/e.

Yeeeah, I dunno if any game could capture the DBZ feel better than Budokai Tenkaichi 1.

Wait a second...this looks so fucking familar. I just can't place my finger on it...hmm. Bid For Power!!! That's it...yea, about damn time the owners of DBZ took a page outta their book and gave us what we really really want.

Looks awesome, but I won't bother with it. I don't think I'd have the mental patience to deal with the fucking morons it would attract.
Is that irony or a double-entendre? I can't tell.
Irony. =P
Nah, but regardless, I still won't get it. I'm not a big fan of MMOs.

Probably part of why they got so threatened and shut down BFP that time.

Well, here`s some good news:
"Akira Toriyama will not only be in charge of the character designs (like we mentioned previously), but over the story itself. Player's will be put into an authentic Dragonball world fully designed by Akira Toriyama."

If Akira Toriyama will be involved, then this game might not turn out as bad as we would expect.

Dude... Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2
For the Wii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With the Wii you have to actually move your hands in the combo positions. Imagine doing a kamehameha or spiritbomb infront of your television. 8)

Then the wrist strap snaps and your wiimote flies across the room and smashes into the wall, true story
