Huh, IIRC that particular attack is the super Base 21 uses in Heroes.

Guess we still gotta wait for a month for more on Lab Coat 21

Looks like using Total Detonation Ball as a Death Ball-type move comes from the story mode where she kills Android 16.

Oh I'm blind. That lighting baited me.

Anyone remember the timespan between SSJ4 Gogeta's V-Jump scan and his breakdown stream?

Shoot, I can't remember for the life of me. I don't remember it being that long?

Getting back into 21 (what with her lab coat self about to become playable), did we ever find out how she got to New Namek in the Evil Warriors arc?

I couldn't find it in the game, so I'm guessing Google has the answers?

As far as I know, it's never explained.

The first cutscene of the arc shows her and 16 on New Namek using Porunga to revive everyone.

It just happens. No explanation for how she found them, or what ship she used to get there, or how she did it without the Namekians knowing or trying to stop her.

Even Goku was only able to find the place via using King Kai's planet as a sort of way station.

Moro from the Super Manga also found it, but his abilities to sense not only ki but the life force of planets played a role in that I believe.

It's an interesting question that the game doesn't really seem interested in answering.

I'm not even entirely sure how being on King Kai planet helped but it's Dragon Ball so I never really care.


I can't recall if there was any story battle using Namek as a stage? I figure it would get involved since it's already but I don't remember any fights taking place there? The most I can remember it's the destruction aspect of the stage that mostly got used.

No, Namek isnt used, but the volcano destruction part is kinda used as a battlegeound occasionally

There's a lot of game assets that aren't included in the story, including several characters (even in the base game) and stages. It's one of the big reasons I wish on of these patches and seasons they drop for this game would come with some Story DLC, like Guilty Gear gets.

I honestly thought that was how the game was also going to get expanded instead of just relying on the DLC characters.


This keeps popping whenever Lab Coat 21 gets discussed.

How many people rather have a sequel instead of more DLC's or vice versa?

KnownUnknown Since: Jan, 2001
#7963: Jan 18th 2022 at 5:28:39 PM

I definitely would. I think the mechanics of the game could stand to get another look from the ground up, how some of the characters work, and of course new story content. While a lot of the work done over the years has gone far into making it feel like a very different game than when it started, it's still kind of awkwardly building around a base they seem aware could stand to be remastered.

Arcsys' business model might not be amenable to that sort of thing right now, though. With the exception of their own IPs they're basically fight games creators for hire, constantly moving on to the next project - which they've already got lined up. They might only really have the space to continue FighterZ rather than start a whole new project in FighterZ 2

It's not an either/or, the ongoing development of DLC for FighterZ has no effect on whether FighterZ 2 is currently in the works or not. If anything, more DLC potentially gives them more time to work on and improve FighterZ 2.

I'm not talking about the DLC for Fighter Z. I'm talking about DNF Duel.

Arcsys has so far shown very little indication that they're interested in making sequels to the non-IP projects they've made in the last few years. They're just doing them because they've been hired to.

At the end of the day, it's up to Bamco to license another one, but they might have to wait until Arcsys is done with DNF at this point.

I don't think that's how that works given how Arcs works over the years but in theory, there's no real reason why that couldn't work. Assuming they would use the same foundation from Fighterz for the hypothetical sequel.

I just checked, this is the case.

All 3 times.

So Toei took down the original upload due to using the voices from the story mode for the little bit at the beginning and near the end...

Kind of insane that they hate little fan made stuff THAT much.

Nothing really new in this tweet, just higher quality official images.

"Android 21 (Lab Coat) is skilled in combat and is a master at absorbing her opponent's energy!" Guess that's confirmation that Lab 21 is also going to have some sort of absorption mechanic.

Isn't Gero the only missing character from Supersonic Warriors? I mean, Super Buu isn't there, but Kid Buu has some of his kit.

A shame really, he would bring plenty to the table.

Gero was that guy being prioritized over the likes of Zarbon but never quite on the same level as Ginyu.
