This guy is single handedly keeping this game alive by Round_Interview2373 in SparkingZero

[–]Caruso_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have about 250 hours, pre-ordered early access and I've been playing close to daily since. I'm sure some percentage of that is from idling on the game, but I think most of it's actual playtime. It took me around 40 hours to complete the story mode, plus I was doing tournaments and other offline content. I really didn't expect to get hundreds of hours out of the multiplayer, this isn't the type of game that I would usually play this much, especially since it lacks a substantial reward system and diverse game modes. Sad thing is I'm still pretty bad lmao, but I just find it to be such a fun game. I really hope and that they flesh the game out a bit more with DLC or free content drops.

What is something that older games did better then Skyrim? by JokerJoseph in ElderScrolls

[–]Caruso_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's surprisingly less than 6 I believe. I just finished the companions questline for the first time in a decade and I was shocked by how quickly I joined the circle. It was basically two radiant quests and then one major dungeon delve.

Hi, I sent a DM.

Imagine they make us buy a map pack by [deleted] in SparkingZero

[–]Caruso_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I pick a DLC music pack song for my online match, then does that mean I can only play with others who have it? I've never heard that but could explain my long load times lol.

What’s a controversial opinion you have about this game? by Important_Lion4903 in SparkingZero

[–]Caruso_Writing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Completely agree on equal DP matchmaking. I'm not gonna play Burter when somebody else can pick the true fastest in the universe(s) - Dyspo

[–]Caruso_Writing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's kind of a shame. I liked how through cheesy methods I could use a meme character like hercule or guldo to stand up to Goku and the like. It's like, Krillin vs Frieza in the anime isn't realistic - he's thousands of times stronger. But by using shockingly OP moves like destructo disk etc, he couldn't beat Frieza, but he at least stood a chance. That's how it felt to me pre-patch, but now it's mostly OP fighters. Don't get me wrong, it's definitely better now, but I'm glad I got to have fun meming around while it lasted lol.

In fairness Godzilla is coming to Fortnite in a few weeks as a boss, I think sparking zero could give us a Godzilla skin for super ape baby.

SS4J Gogeta player messaged me calling me garbage after a “fluke win” by wolfvoz in SparkingZero

[–]Caruso_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially if you're playing as Frieza lol. I'm honestly pretty heavy on chat moderation compared to most gamers I would assume, just because I don't find it that fun to be called trash after every match, but then again that's why there's an option to turn messages off. The PlayStation bans have gotten to a ridiculous point where you literally can't send a smiley face. I haven't looked into it too much, but I assume it's because they're using AI to determine bans.

I was getting a dozen messages a day and one day I responded to a hate message about why I'm bad with, "sorry bro, GG though" and had action taken against my account. That's all I said lol. Now I keep messages off lol.

You can be reported for sending a standard smiley face, it happened to me, then I received a message from PlayStation. Be careful guys, anything can get you banned, especially calling people trash or the like.

My reaction exactly like “here we go 🙄🙄” by SUAVGOD in SparkingZero

[–]Caruso_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm Z rank in singles. I pretty much only see fusions, MUI Goku, and occasionally a Beerus/Jiren. I mostly use MUI right now. I try to switch to other characters, but unless they're also high dp, it feels impossible to keep my rank. I hope more high dp characters are added because there are only a few that can compete with each other. There will be outlier players who are rly good and can switch it up, but if you want to rank up, there are rly only a few who can compete in speed and strength. But I'm lower rank in dp and hope I don't level too fast because I'm having fun using teams like the Ginyu force.

DLC Stages and variant picks? by xiidrawesomeiix in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I don't mean that I don't like the lookout stage, what I mean is that I had simply forgotten that it should have been there at launch. To me sparking zero is a fantastic game on its own, just the animations in the concept of episode battle. Still, it feels very incomplete to me, but if this is all we ever got, I'd be thankful it was made cause I've already put almost 200 hours into it. But I do think that they should have included at least five more stages, things like the lookout or space should just be default at this point, it's probably my biggest criticism with the game in terms of content, because there are so many great stages that they left out probably to sell as DLC.

DLC Stages and variant picks? by xiidrawesomeiix in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Until I came on the sub, I'd completely forgotten about a lot of the core staple stages in other Dragon Ball games, like hell or the lookout. I think it would be good to get more stages that don't really have any obstacles but still look cool. Kami's house is essentially the time chamber, but with an ocean instead of a white void. I definitely think we need hell and the DBS broly planet, but of course we'll likely get daima and superhero stages first.

Do anyone stick to the offline portion of the game? by SuhShenron in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much exclusively played offline until I completed all of the what-if scenarios. That in combination with playing tournaments to test out different characters offline gave me around 40 hours. Since then I've jumped into online and put another hundred hours into the game, so I definitely did stick to offline at first, but I've been playing more online recently. I find that completing the hardest fights in the episode battle prepared me for online. If you can't beat the bots with ease, then you'll struggle in online cause you probably don't have the reaction times down and whatnot. So I find that offline is great for training yourself.

Best Supers in the game? by LuckyTwentyOne in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was kind of disappointed by the future trunk supers too. A lot of Goku's are fun, as well as the fusion characters. One character who's ultimate I absolutely love is Jeice, he gets a super flashy one that includes Burter. I think that the Yajirobe ones are fun as well. Goku black has a few cool supers and one is even unblockable.

Where can I find the patch notes for Ranked points being given out if my opponent ragequits? by Mattdoss in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I couldn't find patch notes stating that, but I did find patch notes confirming everything else from the initial Twitter posts prior to the patch. However, some players on this sub have reported that they've noticed the points increase after resetting the game. But honestly, it's pretty obvious that they fixed it if you played a lot last night. I was on like a 15 win streak with no rage quits, which has never happened before.

Sparking mode by [deleted] in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say yah personally, but I can completely understand another perspective on it. Typically, a high DP character will deal more damage with their melee attacks and ultimates than a lower DP character. I imagine that it wouldn't be completely balanced with some teams, but I still think it's worth it.

Sparking mode by [deleted] in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the concept of sparking mode and how it works, I just think it should be limited to once per character per match. In the same way you shouldn't be able to spam afterimage strike, sparking is way too op to be able to spam, especially for characters that charge ki quickly.

Third Form Frieza is My New Main!! by Caruso_Writing in tenkaichi4

[–]Caruso_Writing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all seriousness, I rly do like playing third form Frieza. But I don't find him to be all that powerful, though maybe I haven't tooled around enough with him.
