Yeah Happy Birthdays don't seem to do much. I imagine catching one in a Neo Tri-Beam is pretty sweet, but i've never seen it.
I have this problem. Ever since the recent maintenance, quests aren't doing anything for me, either.
They'll fix this stuff... one day.
What are your stats? Rank and win/loss please.
Trying to narrow down how the colors work.
I think color is only impacted by ranked play.
If he starts doing the teleporting stuff, just remember that it's always a cross-up from his original position. If he stops briefly and glows blue, he's going to change sides a second time.
If you're getting blown up by his counter, just use more throws.
Seriously? From my perspective it seems a lot of people are having issues across the board. If it's PS4 only, I'll just play on a different version until it's fixed.
This might help? http://wifgc.com/

Mine went up from green to yellow after several arena matches.
I had the game a couple days so far. So far its simple I just hate auto combo damage with a passion. It makes Persona Arena combo damage look like shit. I did some online matches on PC finally so far it's cool. I finally got my ass handed to me by a Teen Gohan player. He combo'd me like crazy I almost felt like I was playing Blazblue how long I got combo'd lol. I just glad I got beat bad just to motivate me. I just need to practice assist combos I guess.
Hit, Goku Black, Android 16 is my team.

I'm assuming. I keep seeing people claim that they're fine on PC.
It's really infuriating, I just want faster and working matchmaking.
Eventually you'll get to the point where that 30% you get on an autocombo feels like you're wasting opportunities.
Probably but I'm in no rush. I'm glad I got it on PC since I'm already using mods. I'm use to these devs games hmm. It's probably their most simplest fighter yet.
Yeah, especially when you can get 4,000-5,000 damage a combo without much meter use or assists by itself. End up taking people out in 2-3 combos instead of the 4-6 it takes for an auto combo. The same basic combo strings work with majority of the characters as well, so finding out that route and then just tweaking it to benefit that individual character is a real nice and easy first step.
I'll probably watch some videos of some combos for some of my mains. So far I think Hit probably the hardest to learn real good in this game. He reminds me of a toned down other character in Arcs games with characters that have stances.
Yeah I've been doing air combos into vanish attacks into switching characters finishing with a mid air super. Works if you have at least 2 meter.
I feel like I'm going to lose a few friends over my Android 16 sub team. The few that I've managed to play in ring matches got deflated reeeal quick when they started getting thrown into the 236L vortex. If I ever develop a decent Hit it's going to be a real problem.
Hmm... okay thanks for the insight. I guess it makes sense to cover more than just ranked matches, but I can't imagine it includes Ring Matches. If it did you could easily inflate that threat level.
I'm trying the Xbox version now. Ring Matches are definitely working, but there are also far fewer people in the lobbies. There are quite a few PS4 lobbies at or close to the 64 player cap. On Xbox I've only seen one lobby that's close to 64 (in the regions I frequent).
It can be so disorienting at times when my opponent fights as the same character. It's easy to get confused with which character you're controlling. Goku Black and Hit are the worst with this.
Oh I don't know, I've seen a LOT of SSJ2 level hits who are getting by with that really simple 4 hit combo that does 45% and absolutely crumble if you take him out of the equation.
I'm XB in the UK and have literally just logged off, and there are several maxed out 64 player lobbies.
I'd argue that's 18's spot.
But yeah, good Hit players that are constantly pushing you are super annoying, can't shake them off.
It 100% does, I've went from yellow to orange/red by playing solely ring matches against friends.
Edit: to add to this, I've just ventured back into ranked and yep, it's pairing me up with folks that are 120,000BP+ above me. I haven't stood much of a chance. This system isn't good.

Hit is fun as hell, but i def feel like 90% of my success is other ppl just being confused
If you're talking about his parry he glows with that stained glass effect. If you are talking about his invul stance it's when he's glowing with blue fire. The best tell for a counter is how obvious your own moves are.

That cannot be the case because I have not played ranked period yet. Worried I will choke.
Hopefully we can get confirmation that ring matches do not impact who you get paired up with in casual and ranked.
You have to factor in time of day. In the US everyone was in school and at work, but the PS4 lobbies were still very crowded. Not the case on Xbox. Plus Xbox has at least double the load times compared to PS4. A small annoyance, but still odd.
For now Xbox seems to be working much better in terms of the network, but I did find a few Ring Matches that weren't working. It also seems as though there are a lot more bad connections on Xbox. I have the same search settings as I do on PS4, but I continue to get paired with 2-bar connections (that I reject).
I'll have to see what happens when I get to higher ranks, but right now Xbox does seem to be working much better than PS4 (although still not perfect).

Hey I just found the link. Can't help the people within lol.
I know lol. I just had an eye opening moment when I peaked in.
I am hoping the connection is a little bit better this evening but man, playing this morning before work was suffering. Laggy matches everywhere and when someone is about to catch these fists on their last character, I get bodied by the RQ special. It's just W/L ratio folks; I have seen plenty of people with poor ratios who are actually good because they aren't afraid to take the L to learn.
Also, which data centers are you Midwest folk using? East or West Coast?

Man...if they're gonna have characters like black who have unpunishable H or 2H's, they need to get rid of their A,B,C combos, because they are too strong.
Like, being unable to do anything to a black because he is just mashing out the same ground combo over and over is really stupid.

Serious question - how do you say the name of this game?
- Dragon Ball Fighter Zee
or
- Dragon Ball Fighters (with a "z")
- Dragon Ball Fighter Zee
or
- Dragon Ball Fighters (with a "z")
How they want you to say it? Fighters
How you should say it? Fighter Z.
TIL: Playstation "recent met" player list is TERRIBLE. The game does a better job recording who I played against than PSN does.
Fighters.
Fighter Z is how I used to pronounce it, but officially that is totally wrong.
I'm demon around 550k like 300ish ranked games with a 72% win rate and ring match Im like 70 wins to 2 losses. And I've played against supreme kais who were pink so lower ranks can probably still get it as long as they are beating other red or pink players consistently I guess?
Does anyone understand the counter system?
I feel like I see "Counter!" pop up, but I never know why. It feels like the game pauses for a brief second, then im getting stomped. Does it mean that we both pressed the same button at the same time and therefor nothing happens? Or... what?

I'm getting wrecked online.
I wish there was a push block. I played someone earlier today who locked me into a corner with Goku Black doing blockstrings and overheads. I can block just fine, but it felt like there wasn't any time to get a reflect or vanish and then I'd get opened up.
Also still trying to figure out people who do super dashes in the middle of block strings lol, that still catches me. Can't tell if it's latency or me mashing because of connections.
Learning at least, or trying, I guess.
