>>723592794Only thing that sucks about playing on a popular server is all the good names are taken. Had to name him after some ooga booga shit to be lore accurate
Do i have to use the 2nd class weapons? They look ghey
>>723592794what did Toriyama mean by this
yup, im gaming
What races are available?
>>723596121human, namekian, majin
I've never played a MMO before
>>723596383im jealous of you bwo keep it that way n.n
>>723596383Join in then! You can be really committed, or play it leisurely instead, and hang out with people regardless. We jump between games quickly, so even the bad ones can be enjoyed as curious oddities.
>>723596730Don't listen to this succubus
>>723594864Always knew Namekians were black coded.
gone2soon
didn't get an answer in the other thread so I'm gonna ask again.how keyboard reliant is this game. wondering if I could just install it on my steam deck.
>>723597250Coded what?
>tfw Masako Nozawa managed to survive to the AI age and now she has immortalized her voice with AI so we're forever stuck with grandma GokuLiterally the only thing I hate of the Kai dub and the only reason I prefer og dub, she even voices his entire fooking family, so annoying.
What class do I pick?
>>723600016human male warrior
>>723598226It's tab target so you don't necessarily need a mouse, it'll just be a bit clunky. You'll probably run out of buttons once you have a bunch of skills/consumables. You might also be able to use the touch screen for the menus
MAJIN FOOD NIGGA. LEMME GIVE YOU ALL DEM BUFFS.P.S.: I DON'T PVP SO DON'T HIT ON ME YOU SILLY BOYS.
>>723599639like niggers. it's in their DNA
Shadow Warrior or Swordsman?
damn this server is dead as hell
White text over a white border in game, well I guess I wasn't playing this for the story anyway
is this a gook game?
this looks so based
what is this shit?
>>723600849>scatman's world
>>723592794i thought thios game died years ago
>>723602439autism is a hell of a drug
>>723600016futa majin bio-android
>>723601171all the servers are fucked, most of them added stupid custom content like ssj9 and other AF tier shit, dboglobal opted to slowly fix the backend and client issues instead, they JUST released 2.0, but there hasn't been a content update (besides seasonal events) in like 4 years. He claims hardcore and EU servers soon but, 2.0 was supposed to be out in 2021, so I'm not holding my breath.This is a weird choice for mmodventure, it's not a very group-friendly game. You're all gonna get shit on by the BRs in the tenkaichis if you try to play them, and the endgame grind is standard KR mmo slop fare where you have to enchant a weapon with a 5% success chance by grinding out resources in a time quest.Or spend real money, cause dboglobal has an egregious pay-for-edits cash shop. There are images around showing off the shit verdant gives to people.
I remember playing this game years ago. Pic related is from late 2019. It was pretty fun but I tried to get back into it like a year ago and just couldn't get my account working. And then I couldn't even get a new account working. Oh well.
Also, these things looked like penises lmao
>>723602961Does UltimateDBO have more people?
>>723600849certified scholar
>>723600753Anon, I…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8XWLsWC2EU
how do I respond without sounding mad?
>>723603676It has more custom content that's horrendously imbalanced, still using the +4stat upgrades system too (meaning instead of having one stat path for your class, every single class uses all 4 stats for different things, so every piece of gear you get needs to be rerolled over and over and over till it's + to all stats, it's a bitch).But, I think it has more players because their updates have been more consistent, yes. Not many more, still like 100 core players. DBO is sorta in the state FFXI was in right before covid, where the pservers maxed out at like 200~ players on big updates.
>>723603812holy shit is that LeVar Burton?
>>723592794Wo I haven't thought of this game in so long.I remember back in the day I would look stuff up online about hoping it would release in NA. Never played it though.
>>723600016G-Fightershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptp1-rcozCU
>>723596362>super namekI sleep>fem majinnotpinkenough/10>human malenow we're gaming
I wish this game had the FFXIV thing were you could be all classes with just one character.I remember basically scamming a Chinese restaurant worker for her ID, getting a swordsman up to Lv45 to learn Final Flash is only available for Fighters.
how are the spiritualist classes? i'm a Roshichad, he's my favorite character in the series, but i'm ngl the crane hermit having more status effects sounds more up my alley
>>723598035>realizing his death is imminent and wanting to settle their rivalry, Goku leaves the Earth with Vegeta for a final battle. Years later, a supernova explosion is detected; it is assumed to be from Goku and Vegeta's battle.kino
It's so weird playing this seeing what the story was supposed to be before xenoverse lmao
game crashed when i tried to ask popo
>>723597250No they're not. Stop trying to force black people into all media. You already got officer black in db
>>723602961Nta, but any clean vanilla servers?
>>723592794Is this the Dragon Ball game that had the good fucking lore after Buu saga that even Tori thought the idea was good?
>>723609057anon put together a guide to the best ones>>>/vm/2017589>>>/vm/2017590
>>723609057global is the best there is, it's not "clean" but no server is, because clean is fucking aids, and that's why it shut down.global changes all stat upgrades to single stat for classes, so it's a LOT simpler to gear up and possible for you to do later time quests without a ton of prep beyond leveling (tournaments are out of the question though)they also run 2 db scrambles a week so you can get dbs to wish for super saiyan or whatever.It's the least crashprone especially with 2.0 he recently released, it's honestly pretty smooth now, but again not a lot of new or custom content. At some point the dev has said he wants to, but right now he's just focused on getting the new servers up (because he thinks splitting the population will somehow make people more interested in playing. Though I will say I'm interested in the hardcore server idea)
>>723609194yeah. buu finds a porno mag and shoots out a cum blob and makes a wife named buubi then fucks her raw and makes a trillion gumball kids.It's story got roughly adapted into xenoverse. Basically the same idea of the time patrollers fighting demons who were fucking shit up and trying to stop the z fighters. It brought us insane shit like giga mecha-raditz, a gigantic robo-raditz that lands on kame island when regular raditz should have taken gohan, and you have to stop it.Or like, dr gero working to create a better mecha-frieza instead of the junkpile he was, shit like that. Fun what-ifs.
o damn you get a scouter
>>723592794How's the english translation, can you follow the story coherently in this? Why didn't they release in Spain France and Mexico for the sweet sweet spic frog bucks Always been curious since it's the next canon media after EoZ apparently
>>723611000I've only read a tiny bit at the begining but the translation seems pretty good. Not sure if the quality drops off later, though.
>>723611000Original release was in korea only. It was moderately successful, updates were very slow as netmarble was making it, and this was when netmarble was in pretty deep shit. They also made Ghouls n Ghosts online around this era (which was an enormous cash sink that never broke 1000 players). So, it was doing okay but netmarble didn't have staff to work on it, it had VERY slow update cadence, normal KR mmos update once every 6 months (with major content, and smaller in between), DBO updated once a year.DBO had time-restricted content like dragonball grinding. They only dropped from grinding mobs, on a saturday, from noon to like 6 pm. As you might imagine, this pissed off a lot of people, because they had to play it like a job if they needed to unlock their races powerup, or use it for something else like extra zenni or... whatever.Tenkaichi tournaments were heavily ruled over by swordsmen in solos, and healers in group battles, nobody else could even compete, 100% winrate for swordsmen after month 1, never changed all the way to closure.The content they DID add essentially equated to "here's a level cap update, and more shit to spend money on in the cash shop". Lots of costumes, lots of cosmetics, lots of paid enhancement items.The enhancement system was pure AIDS. ~5% success rates at 8-9-10 which gave incredible stat bonuses (which, by the way, were a factor in tournaments). So, you paid money to protect your item from destruction-on-fail, or to boost success rate, or both.Eventually it got so aggressively monetized that they forgot to update the game, there was an 8 month period with one chuseok (korean harvest festival) event, and nothing else besides the standard dbs and tenkaichi.They pawned it off on hong kong, where tencent took over, and actually continued developing the game, for a couple years. Mostly QoL and retooling user experience early on. That version is what got nabbed for the basis of all current pservers.
>>723611406So, essentially, the game stopped being profitable because the devs just stopped developing it. There are rumors it was the capcom deal falling through (They were making a megaman X-styled megaman MMO called megaman universe that never made it past early alphas), that they had such insane success with mobile that they dropped PC (not entirely untrue), and a bunch of others. All we really know for a fact is they thought dbo wasn't profitable enough to keep developing actively, and pawned it off on HK, a trend they also did with SD Gundam Capsule Fighter (if anyone here is a mecha fan you'd probably remember that, exact same thing happened. life support for years, repeated events, pawn to HK and shutdown).There were never any actual plans for non kr/hk release. Japanese was never even in consideration for dbo, english wasn't even a concept.
>>723611509Also, just an aside, the game was basically buggy as fuck, and as I mentioned, incredibly imbalanced. Most of the pservers have gone to great lengths to make the game slightly more playable, everything usually ends up tweaked because it was that fucking bad. There was one way to play the game in retail depending on what you wanted to do. You used healer for anything, swordsman for PVP, and whatever the crane hermit one was for AoE in PVE. Everything else was WORTHLESS. Super saiyan was such a big buff over the namekian potential unlock and majin boost for buus that humans ruled everything.So all the current pservers are based on some older servers that laid a lot of groundwork in retooling ALL of the classes numbers to make them all a little more viable. Obviously you still want aoe for time quests and dungeons and shit, and single target for raids and pvp, but now you either class change freely or the numbers aren't so bad it makes you want to die.It's better as a pserver experience than it ever was as a retail game.
>>723611734Damn leave it to worst korea to ruin everything it touches. Crazy it never even got a japanese translation
are there any mods that add Faulconer music?
>>723596362reminder human means saiyan
>>723612795Most games don't and didn't in japan if they were PC exclusive. Japan was really hardcore with it's games on pc. If you weren't final fantasy 11, Fantasy Earth Zero, or Uncharted Waters Online (also netmarble, fun fact) you had 0 room there. Every game that came out and tried to take space from them died. Fantasy earth zero was running until fucking covid, that game was 20 years old and hadn't gotten an update since 2005.Japs are just autistic in a slightly different way, so it probably wasn't worth the investment to market it in japan for a game that was being very poorly received as was.>>723613224It doesn't even have more than one or two of the original songs anyway, but no. You could mod it in yourself, data packs aren't encrypted or anything, they're just mp3s bundled together. Most of the music is atmospheric.
>>723613321they're half saiyans or something right?
>>723613391The idea is gohan and videl's kids fucked around so much that they spread saiyan DNA to a miniscule amount across the entire human population, and gohan's work as a writer to explain the concept of ki was so widely adopted it became a normal thing for people to unlock their ability to fly and sense ki and all that.You use the dragonballs to wish for your "latent abilities" to be awakened, and that means your saiyan blood comes up top, and you get super saiyan.
Hey isnt this that ERP clique that only play games to dress up as cute girls and then ERP with each other on the discord?
>>723613447i see
>>723613516Problem, chud?
>>723613607Basically all of the races in DBO boil down to "some of these dudes got mega horny and now there's a ton of the kids".That's part of the game's progression too, you level up to 25, then progress from kid to adult, it's a whole ass thing. It's MOSTLY after that when the main story about time patrollers, timebreakers, etc starts.
>>723613335>Most of the music is atmospheric.oh i see so probably not a great fit anyway, i figured there would be some battle music that would work for Faulconer and i could mod in some of the original score and Dragon Ball's
>>723613808It's an MMO, I can remember one or two songs that really had any intensity to them to fit that faulconer thematics, the cell-x theme is onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbGE5tWJQhYBut yeah, I wouldn't sweat it too much, I don't even remember the last time I had the music or sound effects on, they're very much mid 2000s.
>>723613447are you telling me superhero was inspired by DBO all along?
>>723613335>final fantasy 11, Fantasy Earth Zero, or Uncharted Waters OnlineThat's an all star lineup so kinda understandable. Then they got Toriyama to pen some of the story and it's befuddles me this never made it to japan even then. Also tfw FEZ private servers never ever...Imagine if we got peak Gungho making dbo instead and the great soundtrack we could've had. We would have RO but dbz and it would have changed the mmo timeline for good
>>723614216Toriyama wrote the entire questline for DBO's initial release and expansion 1 which featured Cell-X (UD Cell) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-XDqM5P8LY) ignore the song literally just the first vid I saw.The concept of cell max is cell-X. Cell-X started as a timeline fucked version of cell, essentially instead of latching on to trunks to go to earth, he ends up pooping out cell jrs across the universe with the aid of a timebreaker (demon/bardock), who create a hivemind on an asteroid belt, and eventually manages to catch a time patroller, stealing their time machine, and using it to send incomplete cell-x's to earth.Instead of being a red ribbon analogy, it's more cosmic horror, he's a big fuckin quadruped bug.An updated version of cell-x was in the card game as a boss (and also in DB heroes:world mission), and then finally in super hero.like 99% of the content in DBO has been repurposed elsewhere in the series. The main storyline in xenoverse 1/2 with the time patrol, the big frieza rework as black frieza (though this was never ingame officially it was just concept art).
>>723614515fucking hit post to sooneven things like the concept of the "evil saiyan from another time" that gets retooled into timebreaker bardock in xenoverse has more threads of goku rose in DBO because it's not just random bad guy, it's bad guy that's specifically a saiyan, and we know all the saiyans are dead (or, taht was the idea then, before tarble and everything after with gods etc etc)demons were meant to be a more mischievous force, fucking with shit for laughs like they are in daima, I would not be surprised to hear toriyama used DBO as a dartboard for his ideas and wanted to see what stuck. Most of the stuff we DID get was pretty fun and novel, red ribbon return, dr gero's lab takeover, hidden android armies, bigbads crossing over, etc. Lots of great ideas, but unfortunately barely anything actually got put in, and so most of it just never even got seen, much less got discussed.
>>723614515>>723614734lmao i thought cell-x was from heroes onlyThis is just the hatchyak plot with extra steps.About the time breakers and bardock i agree, when i saw trunks and black goku with time shenanigans and a kai time traveling it was too much of a coincidence, wished it was kept this way, zamasu would've worked better as ginyu or something along those lines.But i was asking mainly because of the dragon wish. Can you as a namekian or buu ask to have your potential unlocked? can you become a supernamekian or superbuu?
>>723614734And then essentially, all we got for the game was the built out world of the future (goku+veggie are dead, humanity is generally safe besides rogue saibamen strains roaming the planet, beasts like original DB, and some punks doing no good, but no major threats), and when you progress to adult you're indoctrinated into the time patrol, and you basically complete a bunch of time machine quests (dungeons) where you go through severely fucked timeline events. mecha raditz as mentioned, "what-if-nappa-was-a-saibaman" is another, and the first release had up to the end of the saiyan saga where you're fighting mecha-oozaru, and the first expansion covered up to dodoria and I think zarbon was going to be released but never did, and they added cell-x as one of the very last updates, he was the first "real" raid boss with a new equipment tier and everything, and after that game went dead, no more updates, then it shut down. There were posts talking about how the ginyu force TMQs would work, what if guldo was the captain and ginyu actually swapped with vegeta at the start of the arc, etc etc, lots of cool ideas that just never got anywhere, the main time patrol story basically just gets started too, talking about the demons and how they're messing with the timeline to try and stop goku and vegeta from protecting the earth so they can make their way there. I think the idea was eventually even have buu turn evil again and the demons control him to be another big raid boss, but all of those dev posts on the netmarble forums are LONG gone and I doubt anyone ever thought to save them back then.>>723615062No, SSJ is just a skill for humans you wish for at 40, it's a super buff, namekians get potential unloc and buus get majin through questlines that function similarly, but SSJ gave way higher stats in retail than either.
i am the little girl
>>723613447I always understood it was Trunks and Goten who mass bred the human population. at least from the absolute chad he became in GT, it makes sense.
so Loseless Scaling can be used to render the window at 720p but blow it up to 1080p or a larger res, YMMV on how good the scaling looks but the UI elements aren't so tiny this way which is nice
>>723620524>Cope>a full head of hair, an afro even
