The Official Dragonball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 Thread

well I hope they try to balance the game... I know its important to keep up each characters respective image of being powerful... but when you make the game to where a certain character doesn't even stand a chance you risk ruining the funfactor

i.e. sword trunks... his combos are slow.. and his move set is mostly useless.. saiyan armor trunks kills him tenfold

I'd like :

- bend your projectile in mid flight.. I mean you cant move til its over anyway, right?.. why not put that time to good use

- make the projectiles / beams move alot faster than they currently do... cuz when you're across the arena.. you aren't gonna get hit with anything energy based.. especially beam attacks

- special beam cannon should do alot more damage uncharged, and be an almost, if not instant kill fully charged

- arenas should be larger, considering how far people fly when you do a fully charged power hit

- the moment after 2 rush attacks collide and the other person wins.. you are given the opportunity to press O to recover.. but because rush attacks dont consume Ki until it connects.. the winning player can perform a rush and gain the upper hand everytime... this should be fixed

thats just some stuff I thought of off the top of my head.. what are some things you guys would like to see changed?

The other ideas are okay too of course. 😛

What would make me happy would be if they included Bio Broly or Kid Broly in this game. But, so far, out of the three new characters, I look forward to using King Vegeta the most.

they made brolly's 1st and 2nd forms way too slow... in the series brolly boot kicked goku and ran along side him beating him up as goku flew through the air... in tenkaichi 2 they treat these two forms like he's LSSJ.. its really not paying respect to the character.. they also treat his Omega Finisher (his down + triangle + L2 while in LSSJ) like its some easily dodged garbage when it almost caused the destruction of earth... /sigh

I didn't really like Bio Broly though. >_> Not sure if he should be added...

Who is Kid Broly? When was his appearance in the series?

I don't. The Special Beam cannon isnt that good. Cell used a full power Special beam cannon and Gohan basically smacked it away like a fly.

The video is pretty lengthy, but he does it at 5:50. The point is that the Special Beam cannon is useless against stronger people. Its not that powerful of an attack.

IMO that was all for the sake of plot.. just like blocking double kienzan (destructo discs) with his fore arms

for the game the plot timelines and corresponding power does matter.. but to make special beam cannon garbage from that particular event is unfair to people who enjoy playing piccolo.. has special beam cannon been smacked away any other time in the series?

I recall Super Buu (with Gotenks & Piccolo absorbed) doing quite a number on Mystic Gohan with the Special Beam Cannon...

They should just do a set of what if stories. Using the ones everyone already knows its a downside "oh here we are going figth the same androids, again".

What I want to see is Kid Buu nerfed in some way. My gay friend is a *** who get's a quick knockdown on me, special rush attacks when I get up, Charges up and does it again and again til I die. Also Broly was nerfed in Tenkaichi 2 and that is crap.

Isn't one of the most ridiculous features in this new-series off Budokai, the ability to dodge all ultimates? That is one of the reasons why I think these games were all ridiculous when I saw gameplay videos. The whole point of the ultimates is for something 'so powerful' the other person is amazed by it and DOESN'T easily dodge it.

Well, usually at least.

Oh, but it is. It just depends on whose using it. 😛

Exactly, in DBZ the attacks (with the exception of the spirit bomb) are not inherently super strong or weak, it depends on the person who is using it. Needless to say the Special Beam cannon isn't an "instakill" attack, and it never was with the exception of Raditz (and Goku). The point is that Super Buu's and Cells Special Beam cannon are much more powerful then Piccolo's. DBZ is all about your powerlevel not what attack your using (again with the exception of the Spirit bomb).

I was thinking of a few new characters and costumes that should be added.

1. Son Goten (GT)
2. Chibi Son Goku GT
3. King Vegeta, Nail, and King Cold (who have been confirmed)
4. Pui Pui
5. Yakon
6. marai Gohan (who is only in the History of Trunks special, but he is one of my favorite characters)
7. GT costume for Gohan
8. Brolly's regular SSJ form
9 Bio Brolly (though I hate this character)
10. The first form of Hiredugarn (which was absent from BT2 for some reason.)
11. More original Dragonball characters like King Piccolo and emperor Pilaf.
12. Trunk's GT costume
13. Chichi
14. Giant Robot Dr. Wheelo from DBZ movie 2.
15. All of the other Evil Dragons from GT.
16. general Rildo from GT.
17. Gon Goku Golden Oozaru
18. End of DBZ Pan, Uub, and Son Goten.
19. Costume for GT Vegeta.

Of all of these I'd love to see marai Gohan though, I love that character.

One small touch i'd like is to have the opposing character get knocked back when you transform.

That would be nice.

Broly's nerfing still pisses me off.

its really a shame considering what a monster he is in budoukai 3
YouTube video (crappy fight I know, but it showcases brolly at least)
