Hey guys,

i've seen the major improvements over the last few years.
and wow.. seriously kudos to everyone on the amazing job. *claps* :D


I've seen maps/models/combat systems etc etc.. and alot more.
i remember the first ESF actually ;p.. and to think you've come this far with the same engine.. its amazing


But i'm actually the most curious about Transformations.
can you maybe provide us with a small preview of a transformation @ 1.3 .. maybe some kind of small video. ^_^


Sorry if i asked for too much with this :O
It's just a Request/Suggestion



Greetz,


Daisuke! :yes:

You just transform. Do people really have interest in just doing nothing watching your character transform while others are immersed into the awesome action? I'll never understand those ECX geeks.

Anyway, you're probably referring to the main/first/longest transformations of the characters, as later they get shorter over "getting used to" them. They will probably have some sort of nice effects, but if that's what you want to see instead of something more awesome like a new unseen/updated map, model (GOKU, FFS) or a gameplay improvement/addition, then... whatever, it's a matter of taste I guess.

ah i see,

I'm not in a rush for such things =P I was just curious..


Also Hlev.. im not a ecx geek.
allthough i liked what they did with the transformations =] at least some of them.. they exagerated alot of things except for goku/vegeta etc.



I just want to see how the basic first transformation is @ the newly improved ESF game.
i'd rather have a nice long first transformation than one that goes "HA!..half sec" transformed ... [it can be like that at a higher plvl]

I'd love to see them too.

I'm mostly interested in seeing Gohan's SSJ2 Transformation, I hope it's good. Oh and Goku SSJ3

The thing is, SSJ transfomations in DB (yeah, manga!) are instant, with the exception of SSJ3. Making them long for some dramatic effect would simply distance ESF from the original DB, and set closer to what Toei Animation did in order to prolongen the series. And we're supposed to dislike Toei for what they did with DB: bad art, which is also inconsistent; fillers, which contradict the original manga; dialoges, which mismatch manga/contradict what's been said in the original and even their own anime; GT?

Of course, in a game where balance is key, all the (first) transformations supposedly should be somewhat longer than instant, although having normal and permanent transformations, I'd figure out a way to stay true to the manga regarding transformations, if it was up to me.

Transformations should take no longer than they do in Budokai 3. It's short enough to keep the game flowing, but long enough to have that dramatic effect.

You'd live your life by the Manga if it was up to you.

I don't get it. Do you have some sort of a problem with me giving primacy to the manga over some crap which wasn't invented by DB's original author? As it appears that "me and the manga" has become a running joke on these forums. And I don't really like it as I'm not doing anything funny or wrong.
I don't even own the manga. Hell, I don't own anything related to DB.

So please drop this ****, or I'll be forced to start reporting these spam posts of yours.

Okies, I didn't realize taking friendly dibs at you was annoying you. My apologies, I won't bring it up again.

Mostly yes but we allow ourselves some freedoms, when it comes to colours and effects

Freedoms such as colors, effects, and adding in megatron as a playable character.

Not sure why Grega neglected to mention that.

Copyrights have nothing to do with this.

We kinda do a little of...whatever we want to do. I mostly use the anime myself but then again a lot of my stuff is in motion.
