your UK times are wrong by the way

@FullbringIchigo Those are CET - the UK is an hour behind
@Quintumply those were the times posted by Namco Bandai UK's official twitter page though, if those aint the UK times then they shouldn't be posting them
I wanted to play as Yugi, oh well. When this game releases, I’ll show Goku & Naruto how no amount of hard work can beat the heart of the cards.
@NintendoFan4Lyf Honestly, these are all fairly old characters for the beta. I expected them to push characters who’re currently big but I’m glad they haven’t forgotten about HxH and Yu Yu Hakusho.
Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star is who I wanna try out.
@NintendoFan4Lyf basically
Dragon Ball
Son Goku
Vegeta
Frieza
One Piece
Monkey D. Luffy
Roronoa Zoro
Marshall D. Teach
Naruto/Naruto Shippuden
Naruto Uzumaki
Sasuke Uchiha
Saint Seiya
Pegasus Seiya
Fist of the North Star
Kenshiro
Bleach
Ichigo Kurosaki
Rukia Kuchiki
HunterXHunter
Gon Freecss
Hisoka Morow
YuYu Hakusho
Yusuke Urameshi
Toguro (younger brother)
Rurouni Kenshin
Kenshin Himura
Always wanted to see Blackbeard and Vegeta fight.
Anyway, I'm interested in this game but not really the online competitve side so I'll give this a miss. On a different note, I think this game really has an uphill battle on its hands, coming out after Smash Bros. Ultimate.
@FullbringIchigo Bamco UK also managed to get the times wrong for the Dragon Ball livestream. They had it down an hour late!
@ShogunRok yes this is true, i missed half of it because of that, not that there was much to miss anyway
everything about that live stream was terrible, the format, the host and the content
These timed schedules are a headache. Just leave the server on the entire weekend like most other betas.
great the ONE day i was actually going to be able to play it at they cancelled the damn thing
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
@FullbringIchigo Same here super upset, I hope the re-schedule day is a day off.
@KidBoruto and there STILL isn't any news on when it's coming back
i am REALLY disappointed and like @Ryumoau said they should just turn the servers on for the whole weekend instead of having set times
@FullbringIchigo so today is the last day ?
@silverlyshadows it was meant to be but it was cancelled for some reason
@FullbringIchigo thats sucks i just downloaded the game
@FullbringIchigo Agreed they should gives us an unlimited free weekend to make up for this crud.
@KidBoruto at the very least an entire day
@FullbringIchigo Sure a day works too as long as it's on a Sun/Mon/Tues, I work Wed-Sats.
@KidBoruto i work Mon-Fri but it's at night so i would have plenty of time any day of the week
@FullbringIchigo I don't get home until 7 PM PST and have to be asleep by 10-11 PM...so it has to be on a day off when I don't feel so rushed.
@KidBoruto i work 9pm-3am (so i'll be leaving for work soon) so i get most of the day to play games
lucky me
It won’t let me play for the last 3 days
Hopefully the servers won't be under maintenance for set periods of time like last the last one. The cast doesn't look bad, and there is still a list of characters I would like to see added either by launch or DLC (if that becomes an option). This game looks interesting and I would like to get a feel for it before deciding on a buy.
so i finally got to play the beta and it's really fun, plays a bit like the old Dragon Ball Z Sparking/Budokai Tenkaichi/Raging Blast games back on the PS2 and PS3
controls are easy enough BUT for some reason they didn't put an explanation of the controls in the beta so you have to work them out yourself
there is NO English voice over like we all figured there wouldn't be but plenty of subtitles for the important stuff and the sound effects are great, each attack sound like it should, a Kamehameha sounds like a Kamehameha for example
now the hub world is kinda, well bland but it serves it's purpose perfectly fine, it basically the same as XenoVerse 2's in the way it works, go to a desk to play the game mode you want to play but not as colourful
all in all it's fun and if your a fan of most of the series in the game you will enjoy it because it's full of plenty of little nods to them BUT if you only know of one or two of them then it's probably not worth paying full price
