Is Jobhan good in this?

>Yamcha is basically a god-tier character in this game
>Toei gave Yamcha several fillers in DBZ where he stomped Ginyu Force and Pikon.

So basically everyone except Toriyama himself loves Yamcha and wants to see him do good.

>character's low
>want to swap out
>holding down the button and nothing happens or an assist only comes out

6A is quick tag

I know, when I try to quick tag the assist only comes out.

Bretty decent.

He seems really good so far, he has pulled back so many games for me without even doing anything that crazy. Just keep pressure on and keep adding levels

Do we have any more Nappa footage?

you gotta hold forward

Try Nappa. Hes the best.

I still can't decide on my team. Someone pick for me. It's out of these characters:

Piccolo
Vegeta
Cell
Freiza
Teen Gohan
Trunks
Kid Buu

Why are guys so angry at the idea that GT characters being DLC?
You guys realize that GT is still incredibly popular in Japan right? There is a shit ton of SS4 merch in Japan and they are doing s SS4 arc in DBH right now.

Is there any port to open in my gateway or something?
I see a lot of people that say they don't have any problem, but the online is fucked up on my end

user holding forward is not hard

What’s a good order for a gohan, gotenks 16 team?

youtu.be/WCa4LaDFqJU

Mmm thats the good shit. MAOR

Here's your daily dose

>can't stop losing to literal mashers
this is the only genre I've played where bad players have the advantage over playing wanting to improve

Cell, Nappa, Vegeta here with 26 wins 4 losses.


Nappa shits damage man, I love him so much, and that synergy with vegeta, god damn.

This is basically the only thing I have - more webms could me made if more Nappa stuff could be found
Nappa + Vegeta or Kid Buu is great

Japanese literally love anything dragon ball. Only the japs and the spics like GT

You are actually a shitter. Glad you found out it now. Now you can only improve.

Bad players do not have an advantage over you. That is impossible. You are simply worse than them. But your mindset of wanting to improve will eventually take you farther.

I remember the Ginyu fight on King Kai's planet, but when did he fight Pikon?

>tfw someone will probably win this years DB FZ Evo by maining Nappa

Long time fightan player here, feel pretty lost in this game. Aside for some Skullgirls, I never played 3v3 fighting games. Do I start with the one character I like and build a team around him or should I search for some specific character synergy? Any tips for building teams and what to look out for in general? How the fuck do I stay alive in this game? I like Tien a lot, but I can't seem to find where to start, getting my ass wrecked online by an autocombofriends.

Been fucking around with him a lot and i honestly think hes a top tier point character. If you use anyone with a beam assist it guarantees a saibaman setup on hit or block. He's just snowballs after that and keeps you in blockstun for fucking ever. More than anyone on point he feels silly with the right assists and needs almost no meter at all to do damage since his oki is so fucking strong.

you're gonna suck at first when trying to incorporate new things in your gameplay but you'll end up being better overall

Is DBZF the best party game of all time?

>I can't seem to find where to start, getting my ass wrecked online by an autocombofriends.

Remember, 2H beats Super Dash.

JOBZA WAS A MISTAKE

no smash is better

what beats kamehameha into assist kamehameha into kamehameha into assist kamehameha into kamehameha? block?

don't get hit by the shitty auto-combo, they don't know how to guard they just mash one button
the super dash is broken against these tards

hello literal retards
I can win easily if I just mash auto combos and homing dash like they do

Nappa, Vegeta, Freeza here.

Im loving Nappa. Hes got plenty of combos that go low or overhead while shitting out damage. So stylish rushing down the opponent and slamming their face into the ground. Only problem is hes so god damn big Im fucked if they start juggling me.

if you double jump and then super dash you will fly over their beam spam

He beat obilu who is weaker than normal perfect cell which means that he is atleast as strong as ss trunks

Yes. Or you can just vanish against raw supers.

super jump into super dash
any tp, any super

i'm not talking about supers

So you try to do shit that is not effective and you complain that you are losing? Wow, shocking.
How about learning the better tech and being competent in executing them?

>appears as a Boss in story mode after you recruit Vegeta
Oh this should be a fun cutscene
>no cinematic at all for Nappa, just shows a scene with the Kais
Aww
>next map is a random clone battle boss
>cutscene after shows Nappa
Oh! Nappa is-
>immediately killed and eaten by 21 with his only line of dialogue being ARRGGGHH
Fuck this

Nah, smash is more fun imo.

>SAVE ME, JOBGETA
>SAVE ME, GOKU

So, like, git gud?

It doesn't really matter, most people are gonna drop this game in 2 moths

Block or vanish attack. Depending on angle of kamehameha and your position on stage you might be able to super jump into super dash to get a full punish

Is Nappa the Zangief of this game?

Burter’s aerial assist is fucking insane and I love it

I’m loving Ginyu in general way more than I expected to

It's shit actually, thank fuck for steam refunds.

I would actually enjoy Toppo in DBZF after seeing this beatdown

Remember to practice your Cell corner loops

minimum 4.5 or 5k damage with one bar and can go up to 6k if you can land it all

What is this from?

latest episode of Super

Oh, regular ones. Super jump, super dash.

>16 wins into ranked and not a decent player in sight
>go back to casuals and work on new team synergy
>suddenly -Adam-
>lose a close first to 3
>the game matches us again immediately, run it back 2-0
>go to msg him about how good the games were and add him

FUCK

Yesterday's DBS episode.

Not in the slightest. He's not a grappler.

Naruto

This. Cell is the most god tier character right now in this game.

Mexican fan animation

Is the community decent on PC?

Do you need playstation plus to play online for ps4? I own a ps4, but I'm not paying $60 for ps+.

I haven't started watching Super yet. Freeza is still getting wrecked huh.

Yes you need ps+

Closest you have to Zangief is Android 16, and only because he's a grappler. Fat Buu has a few attacks that slam people into the ground and he pummels them, but they're not really grapples.

are there any good youtubers that make lots of character specific videos? or should I just watch some streamers for that?

I'd rather do 5.5k with gohan in the corner for the same meter investment, no chance of a drop, and a strong reset.

Main thing I hate about this game is I won't be able to play it for months, and by then everyone will be killers and I'll get stomped into the dirt. Such is the curse of fighting games.

Fun. I enjoy characters that zone but need to follow a gameplan and do setups and he's perfect since that and some blockstrings are basically his entire deal.

I'm hoping Broly has an assist that benefits Ginyu because that'd be my ideal anchor.

>404986004
>t. inJUSTice/r kappa/Company-wars faggot

Get out bitchboi, this game is more fun than most fighting games we had before (outside Tekken 7, GGXrd and SFV), plus, 10% of the current playbase is better than what's the current MvC player account

Frieza comes back twice and eats shit both times

The PC community is literally too big for the servers to handle, and so far in my experience the level of play is far far lower than on console

PS4 does require PSN+, but there's probably 10 times the number of servers to handle the load

As a complete scrub, air combos are hard work. Doesn't even look that impressive. And this wasn't even the whole actual combo string that I found

5M>2M>dl.2S>236LL>L+A1(nappa)>jM>j2H>SD>jLM2H>dj>jLL2H>j236M

Oh well, I'll take it for now. Glad I got at least this much.

What makes Cell so Perfect?

Game just came out like yesterday. People are still discovering what's what in this game and inventing combos. Give it a week or two to see some good character specific youtubers posting combos.

This is the first tag team fighting game I've played, I literally have no idea what I'm doing. How do you use assists properly? How do you decide when and how to switch? Or is that switching stuff in general just used to extend combos?

I think GT is shit yet I’d be fine with GT DLC
I just don’t want it to be yet another Goku or Vegeta but with red hair, if they’re giving us GT characters do Baby or Omega Shenron or Super 17

Pretty much anyone can do 5k damage meterless with some assists.

dl.?

no need for big community. if a thousand concurrents keep playing that's plenty enough for a very healthy community. I played some competitive games that survived on way lower than that (warcraft 3 for example, you practically knew everyone within a decent margin of your MMR), never stopped the games from being fun and yourself from having lots of hard competition.

New to 2D fighters (mainly played Tekken).

Am I right in thinking you trigger a hard knockdown based on height? Playing as Cell I noticed that his 2H will only hard knockdown from high up. Too low and the opponent can techroll.

Why can't I join a ring match?

>5L>5L>2M>5M>9L>M>9L>M>2H(this launches)>H(this chases)>L>M>H

explaining combos like this is fucking stupid

Use assists to supplement your combos, basically anytime you’re safe so you’re not risking them getting damaged

Swap out when your current character has a good amount of blue bar that they can heal back by resting

>how do I use assists properly
depends on the assist, but generally you want to be doing one of three things with it:
1 - making space if you need it
2 - making strings safe or making them longer (do a blockstring, summon an assist right at the end, do the blockstring again or mix up)
3 - continuing a combo

I have no fucking idea either, honestly. Probably a typo? I dunno.

you can start by using assist whenever you get a hard knockdown on your opponent so when they wake up they have to block

God damn I suck at execution. I always cut my combos short with a finisher because if I don't I'm guaranteed to fuck it up. I'm trying to practice the 2M5M jump cancel combo but when I get online I always fuck up and switch to magic series instead

I hope Broly is just a retarded grappler with strong normals and command throws so I don't have to combo ;_;

I switch to get some of the HP back. No raw tags, do it within a combo to be safe.
Throwing assist out to protect your movement towards the opponent is one way to use them. Other is to extend combos and last one is to cover your unsafe moves.

That's my take on it anyway.

Honestly that's all i'm waiting for jumping into the game, smaller communitues are always better, more focus on progression and more working together.
