You think it's oh so easy to mitigate an MMO with real-time action? It's not, you have to deal with lag, send information to the server, compute the trajectory of (blah blah blah here), send it to the server, have the server calculate it, and then send the end result to (all 250 clients in the same area).

As you can expect, lag is a huge factor in a game like that.

Indeed it is, but the times are changing, with the standard internet connection speeds of today increasing, I don't see real time action MMORPG's as being impossible for too long.

The game doesn't have to be possible. It's just what we would want the perfect DBZ game to be

MMORPG DBZ wouldn't be in my favor.. I really don't want 1,253,178 Goku's and Vegetas flying around and shooting ki attacks everywhere.

I wholeheartedly agree. And every one of them is named Vegeta, SSJ_Vegeta, SSJVegeta, SSVegeta, etc.

They could simply provide race choices....

Yes, but once people start customizing their characters (the only MMO that doesn't feature character customization is Lineage 2 after all), the characters will "just happen" to resemble DBZ characters.

How many clans will there be with some kind of name like "Z Fighters," "Z Warriors," "Z Defenders," etc, where each member of the clan just so "happens" to resemble a DBZ character?

I dunno, a dbz face/hair/body build customisation would be very easy to introduce, and It's only the sad losers who'd be impersonating the real characters, plus you can bet in a day nearly every name from dbz would be unavailable. Imagine all the different armour/clothes you could equip through levels.... there could be a lot of variation and it wouldnt be too hard to do at all.

The best DBZ game is the DBZ game that's only based on the concepts. That way, there's no adhering to Funimation or Toei's requirements, no royalties, no lame icons that need to be added into the product to fulfill a contractual obligation.

Which is more like a project I'd make for a commercial game.

I haven't read all replies (I'm far too lazy for that).. But here are my thoughts:

- Have cut scenes just like they did in Budokai 1. They did an amazing job with everything. It felt like I was playing the show. I don't know why they didn't continue with this, they should have.
no no no! I hate the cut scenes, I want everything to be fast and smoothly without any damn cut scenes. Do you seriously have any idea how annoying it is to wait for a cut scene every time you do a special attack? You don't see this in the real show, do you? When someone is doing an attack, you simply have to react fast.. Which is the same in reality... If you are not talking about the Special Attack Cut Scenes, skip what I said ^_^.

As for the transformations, they should be instant, without any cut scenes..

Exactly. In City of Heroes/Villains, you can copy any superhero you want, but the real fun comes from designing your own character. I've seen people design Wolverines and Hulks and Supermans and what have you, but people always look down on them because they lack ingenuity and creativity. I'd rather design my own Saiyan than look like Vegeta or Goku.

Dude you fail hardcore. I'm talking about the cut scenes for the STORYLINE. Remember, the STORYLINE that B1 had? It was an awesome STORYLINE, because it had CUT SCENES FOR THE STORYLINE.
