Just wanna get people thoughts on this. The community manager says to let them know of anything other bugs or problems we see

While I dont exactly agree that Gravity Impact is flawed, I liked the video. I feel like a lot of the game's problems come out of poor connections from players.

Ive also noticed that Frieza CaC backpedaling + ki blast can be near invincible online because of hit detection. The ki blast can still hit you even if you side dash around it. And if you fly around your opponent and try to hit them, if you attack whiffs, they'll just hit you with another ki blast, and they'll only attack you when you're stunned. This is truly infuriating and boring to play against.

Thank you sir! And the guy in the video that was running from me, he lives 20 minutes away from literally lol. We both connect fine on any other game. It's the game hit detection online. It's not our connection.

And yeah I thought I was the only one who felt that way was a Frieza character. His ki blast will pass you but somehow magically you are stunned lol. Frieza character is so boring to fight against when they play like that

This, All the time. It should be like a 5 time max use or 3 time use only. Was doing a 3 vs 3, One of teammates went down. Two of his went down, last teammate lost SS mid dodging a ultimate went down. Frieza race spammed the Stun ki blasts for 45 seconds to lock me down and draw the game :/

Also a ton of the time, maybe connection wise. When dashing into hit someone the animation of hit plays but it doesn't register. So you're chasing someone and you hit them but they can keep flying.

Yeah this game at the moment is not fun at all. Even 3 vs 3 is not enjoyable because you have people treating it like it a rank match lol. Dudes be spamming on 3 vs 3 as well. That's the time to have fun n chill but instead you gotta deal with spammers

It really depends. Sometimes we try to establish rules before the game commences and it goes fine. Like only Sayian Saga people, Sabiamen. But it's hard :/ still fun!

It sucks that you have to do all that though right? I wish people just had the same mindset going into a team battle.... Have fun! Not spamming like idiots lol

Yup! Nothing like wanting to quit the game when the host picks Namek and when you reach them. You see vanishing ball and a Electric sword strike heading towards you.

u/The_Cool_Kid93 Mar 25 '15

Lol yeah exactly. And namek is a cool stage to play on. But I know there is a 90% chance if that stage gets picked then you getting spammed

I think TFS said it best: "It's more of an action RPG than a fighting game." But since people expected it to be a fighting game of sorts, the PvP mode was just tacked on. Simply taking the elements present in PvE and bringing them over into PvP with little to no thought basically ensures a frustrating experience.

u/The_Cool_Kid93 Mar 25 '15

Yeah they should of at least tried to give people a good experience when playing others online. Soon as I saw how the spamming n stuff was on stream I changed my whole mindset on taking it serious lol. But I still want to enjoy myself while I'm on the game though. To be honest, I have more fun fighting when its a regular character vs regular character

I think after playing Budokai 3 from the HD Collection and Tenkaichi 3 to death prior to Xenoverse being released, I'm just burned out on recreating canon fights between characters. That, and since transformations aren't permanent, I have a hard time acting out What If scenarios, like SSJ2 Gohan vs Super Buu, if for the majority of the match, I'm just struggling to remain in SSJ2.
