I don't expect a release of the game within the next 8 months to be honest, I get on this website and the facebook page everyday looking for the exact same thing - updates. I read through some of the moddb.com responses and it makes me think that there will not be a release this year at all.
-Cell games map is NOT complete (even though it may look as such), Desert map is stated as being the most complete.
-minimum requirements have not been finalized, however if, "If you're able to play modern games you should be fine." Mastasurf said that.
-In response to the question is anyone(character) finshed the response to this is, "The only transformation we have is the one we revealed. Vegeta going SSJ. There are other priorities than transformation effects." Grega said this on 22Dec11, things may have changed since then.
-The character models in this game will have other 300 animations per model. God knows where they are on this one I estimate that there will be a total of at least 10,800 animations (whether Krillin has different animations between his forms along with Piccolo is unknown - this could drop the number to 10,200)
-In October and November of 2011 no "new" content had been worked on, mostly bug fixes and optimization.
-I'm sure everyone knows this but this is the character listing for ESF: Final
A18, A17, A16
Buu, Evil Buu, Super Buu, Kid Buu
Cell, Imperfect Cell, perfect Cell
Frieza, Form 2, Form 3, Form 4
Ginyu, Guldo, Jeice, Burter, Recome
Gohan, SSJ, SSJ2
Goku, SSJ, SSJ2, SSJ3
Krillin, unlocked potential (not really sure what the final plan with him is)
Piccolo, Removed cape
Trunks, SSJ, USSJ
Vegeta, SSJ, SSJ2
I think it'll be a long, long time before this game comes out, I'm only speculating though.
