Possible update changes I've noticed (post yours)
The good:
-Performace seems to have improved. I turned on Glare and Depth of field and FPS seems to stay on the high side
-Photo Mode improvements, rotating the camera allows for more precision, also they seem to have inverted the Y axis for some reason


The bad
-They seem to have nerfed Perfect Shot
-AI bug where they randomly fly to the top of the screen like a moth to a lightbulb

The ugly
-SSBE is a ki-chugging mess with some slight improvements that don't seem to make up for it

That's all I can think of right now, what changes have you experienced?

I noticed FPS improvement on my low end pc with all of my settings low so I'm satisfied :) SSBE I just wish meditation would counter the ki drain but I would have to use Fu's super soul and meditation to maintain it... IDK :|
Perfect shot was OP and needed to be nerfed, for a 1 ki super that kind of damage was insane.
AI Bug is annoying af.
SSBE chugging Ki is to offset how powerful it is (10% more damage than SSB) however it can be maintained with Fu's Super Soul + Meditation.

You're pretty much right here, still bad news for people who relied on it outside PvP. They could've done with nerfing it less anyway, I think they halved it.

I don't mind having to reapply Divinity Unleashed to maintain it, Turles' new soul boosts damage even further but IMHO, the drain is too fast, almost one bar every 4 seconds (twice as much as SSB if I'm not wrong). They could've been slightly more forgiving with it.

With this update for some reason I can no longer take screenshots:steamsad:

Something else... they buffed a bunch of the moves that just got Super Souls that make the moves better, like, for example: Kamehameha was already a pretty strong move. It was reliable, consistent (except for the hit box after the user got hit), and was relatively fast, and now it's even more powerful. Pair it with that Super Soul, and Kamehameha becomes incredibly good.

I just find it weird that they give Kamehameha users this great Super Soul, and then buff the original move by adding more damage.

Also, SSBE is just what I expected. Stronger but more ki drain. Generic and boring tbh, and before anyone says anything, I know you can still maintain the form, but if you need to use a specific build to make the transformation work, then the devs did something incredibly wrong.

Super Dragon Fist was nerfed, it doesn't lock opponents on the last hit anymore, and damage seems significantly lower

Perfect shot being nerfed means vanishing ball (which does the same damage as PS used to) is king now.

Good. o3o

I feel like SSG/SS/E just devalues what super saiyan even was in the first place. Reducing it to "this color of Super saiyan is better than etc." and just dumps all over the chance of any non pure saiyan being relevant again.

Oh except for Frieza who they ALSO felt the need to give arbitrary recolors to represent greater feats of power.

The damage nerf for Perfect Shot was absolutely okay. It will most likely remain the best Ki Super anyway, mainly due to the fact you can chain PS to PS for like 3 or even 4 times, depening on the map.

You can also abuse your Dash, Assault Vanish, Meteor Strike or the teleport glitch to build insane combos both in PvP AND PvE, all stuff that no other Ki Super will allow you to do.

Vanishing Ball is now better with regards to damage, but all the other goodies are still exclusive to PS.

Other than that:

- AI ascension bug (seems like this depends on map choice a lot)
- backhits have become more or less useless
- Z-Vanishes are almost as good as Evasives now
- Evasives have become cheaper to use (which alters the gameplay in PvP a lot)
- They forgot to keep Fake Blast's cost at 3 bars. It's way too good now...
- They nerfed male Earthlings' unvanishable stamina break combo
- They nerfed the damage of female Saiyan combos
- They somewhat fixed Bojack

Boy I sure wish I could feel the benefits of that performance update but apparently the latest update didn't fix the FPS issue on my RTX 2080 clad desktop.

FPS issue? What kind of problems do you experience with your RTX card?

I dunno if anyone's posted it yet but it looked like kkx4 kamehameha's 4th bar extension activates slower but if you use it as late as possible it wont drop the person your hitting out of the beam, essentially it works more as intended now but feels a bit weirder

*for some reason ive noticed the opposite with the one handed mk2 kamehameha, where if you delay the extension, the last hit of the initial beam will hit through the second and knock the person youre hitting out more often than now, which is super weird

On my desktop in the main menu the game locks to 47fps no matter what, and in the game it's locked at a max of 34fps and frequently dips to 14 to 20fps. No matter what settings I change, no matter what exterior things I try, the game runs like ass. And no, my hardware is 100% fine, I can run any other game perfectly fine.

It's ridiculous when you consider the game runs 100% fine on my laptop running on 2 generation old hardware. So ♥♥♥♥ me I guess, can't enjoy the game on my good hardware.
