I trust that the gameplay of 1.3 will be great, but I would also like to see stronger incorporations of eye candy as well.
Now, Game play will always mean more than graphics, however, let's say a kid has a yo-yo. It's a plainass blue yo yo. Now, another kid has a yo yo, except this one flashes colors when you play with it. Which one do you think will lose interest faster?
Power struggles
So far, the only thing find really intimidating about a power struggle is the sound the beams make. In the beggining, power struggles are a sight to see, seing to glowing beams battle it out, but then it just seems like two light pushing each other. Not to say powerstruggles aren' fun, but they could be fixed up to so much more levels. I don't know what new eye candy the team is planning, but my idea is to mak them seem furocious.
Generic beam battles don't need to seem epic, but when a Kamehameha is battling it out with a Gaalic Gun, you would want something more than just killing your opponent. So I suggest..
Though this part of the game is mostly gameplay, desn't mean a little bit of effects could be added.
Now I know EVM tried this and made the game unbalanced, but I'm sure a system could be incorporated into ESF in a safe way.
A new meter, a "style" meter. This meter encourages players to fight. The more combos he lands in both kinds of melees, the more players he kills (by melee), the more blasts he deflects and other things raise the bar. When it reachs maximum, characterscan use their special until the bar runs out (can not gain any "Style" points while using the special)
Gohan-"Burst of poweR" When below 50% health, speed and powerlevel temporarily increase. If a teammate dies during this time, 100,000 is added.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Fat Buu-"bouncy skin", Knock back is reduced while in "style mode"
Super Buu-"Absorbiton option" Using candy attack, he can choose to absorb the plaeyr to gain a new attack and some pl
Kid buu "Charged Instant Transmission"-While in "Style mode", if kid buu holds down the teleport button, the longer he holds it, the farthe he teleports (uses ki)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Androids 17 and 18-"Auto ki gain" any ki blasts/generic beam that hits them or explodes on them automatically gives them ki
------------------------------------------------------------------
Ginyu "Slow Time"-Now I do not know if this is possible, but everything begins to move at a slower rate for the Ginyu player, not affecting other players. Uses ki as well as the style bar when in use.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Trunks-Sword always out, burning attack engulfs players instead of blowing up
------------------------------------------------------------------
(all)Vegeta-"Frustration" for every damage done to Vegeta, he gains pl
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Goku-"Kaioken", boosts speed and power signifigantly, drains health after awhile
SSJ1-3 Goku "Charged Instant Transmission" Same as Kid Buu's
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Krillin "Wife"-#18 acts as a buddy for krillin util bar is used up
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Cell (form 1 ) "absorb"- if grabbing a player at low health, and wins the grab, will absorb them for 100,000 pl instead
Cell form 2 "self destruct"-If Cell form 2 dies, anything near him gets damaged
Pefect Cell-"Revival" This depletes all of the style bar. It is like Cell's insurance, if Cell reaches 1 hp, he is regenerated as a stronger, faster self until he dies again (Can not be revived until style meter full agian)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Piccolo "weighted clothes" sigfigantly more pl gained when attacking
No cape Piccolo "Long Arms"-Can melee characters form a slight distance, regerates health if idel for longer than 10 seconds
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Frieza "super telekinesis"-can throw players with telekinesis
Frieza From 2 "HEad Spikes" Basic melee does a lot more damage
Freiza form 3 "Fast ki" Normal ki blasts are fired EXTREMELY faster than normal and at a higher rate
Final Form "100%" Fights with more a lot more powerlevel until meter depletes
Hopefully thats a bit balanced enpugh, just wanted to get this essay of ideas out. Spelling mistakes are a must, very tired...

Generic beam battles don't need to seem epic, but when a Kamehameha is battling it out with a Gaalic Gun, you would want something more than just killing your opponent. So I suggest..
- New, more enthustiastic power struggle stance (animation)
- A somewhat animated ,spiky center for the power struggle, slighly growing as more ki is poured in
- The occasional lightning spurting out if the power level is high enough
- The beam should not kill the player who won, but push the player who lost until he hit something...Then it blows up
Though this part of the game is mostly gameplay, desn't mean a little bit of effects could be added.
- Optional selection of a vibrating camera every time you hit/get hit by bsic melee/strong attack
- Turbo aura stays on while in advanced melee. If two player oth have turbo, the turbo model becoems one whole, surrounding both players
- Dust/spalsh while a person has been smashed to the ground/water
- Lightning around advanced melee struggled people (if high-powered)
- The ability to teleport while blocking (more ki used up)
- SSJ-SSJ3 Goku/Perfect Cell/Kid Buu can teleport through physical objects (i.e, can teleport through a blast being shot at them), but uses more ki. "teleport lines" appear instead of an after image.
- New basic melee hit sprite
- "Advanced graphic mode" optional (on/off)
- Do not have to stop to teleport (so oyu can teleport while in swoop)
- Spirit Bomb leaves goku open after using it, he must stay put, pushing the bomb until it detonates (only happens if Spirit bomb charged enough) If tis happens, he can push a little more energy into it, yet burns ki at an accelerated rate, can go ssj if he has perfect power level
- Rocks float while in a strong block struggle
- If an android wins a struggle, he/she can choose to absorb it instead of throw it back
- A new Explosion statistic "Damage lag" Certain attacks' explosions will linger, damaging anything inside it, similar o a ki blob.
