Bought the PC edition of the game, and, after dropping the settings lower, I got it to around 30 FPS (I think) during battles.  I think it took me at least 10 attempts to beat the first parallel quest Raditz gives you, and even then, by only a sliver of health and a lot of luck.  The gohan portion of that one didn't even show up, as well.  This is gonna be a long game...

Alternatively, put everything you have into Ki Blast Supers and unleash the storm of sure-fire death.

That won't work too well until later...
- You don't start with a ton of Ki
- You don't have a good skill to charge them (unless you're Earthling then you just kite, but you won't get many ultimate finish this way)
- You have no good skill to use it with

Just focus on story missions early on, and don't sweat about ranks. When you get stuck, go back to do parallel missions.

Yep. Most enjoyable this way too. I spent a while trying to get ultimate finishes on everything before beating the story, but outlevelling the story makes the fights a lot less epic

Don't forget that you can use the scouter (even if you don't have one equipped) to look at your enemy's level and a few other stats. If you hit a wall in Story Mode, just level yourself up to match your opponent and it should be a much more interesting fight.

Sadly this is true. I obsessed about Z Ratings on all available missions, and getting all the skills and gear to drop, and basically annihilated challenge as a result. You end up with story missions that aren't hard enough, and PQ's that are utter ball breakers.

To be fair, after beating the game you end up with this regardless

Except the PQ 52 and PQ 53. Those are insanely easy and give a shit-ton of experience.

Which are those? Dragonball finding ones?

In 52 you fight 3 great apes - Nappa, Vegeta and Bardock. When you can unlock 52, you can punch Nappa and Vegeta to death.

In 53 you is the one where you collect 3 dragon balls to clear. On picking up the first Broly will show up together with Videl, Goten, and Trunks (as your allies). With that many allies around, you will have a lot of time to charge ki to strip Broly of his super armor, so even getting ultimate finish is not that difficult.

I beat all PQs a few days ago (Earthling, Basic Attack major, Super Ki Blast minor)... I have Z-rank in a bunch (including 7-star and DLC ones), S and A in others, B and C in a few, and one D (the one where you collect dragon balls vs. Frieza, Cell and Buu). I seem to usually do bad for missions about dragon balls. I suck using that radar, and I often get lost in general (which exit do I use next? Where is it?!).

The ones with two or three Super Saiyans are annoying, but not impossible. The problem is getting high enough scores...

In other news... I am in favor of banning people like these.

[kcwong]

The disconnect problem rears its ugly head again... now I'm getting kicked from server after 2 or 3 PQs.

Cheaters aplenty, and no activity going on here as well... offline mode for all eternity it is.

[Sirus]

Offline is pretty much the only way I play anyway. To me, DBX is primarily a single-player game with occasional multiplayer elements. Like Dark Souls or Elona or something.

[nenjin]

Yeah I was kinda underwhelmed by hot it plays in MP. You're so used to spam attacking an opponent anyway that you barely notice the other players.

Really the only benefit to coop seems to be in large team fights you're not stuck with feckless AI who can barely fend off your opponents, let alone hurt them. Which in the end just makes the fight easier, rather than more fun.

[BFEL]

Is now upset that the only "offline mode" the Xbox version has is "not updating the game"

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

What level were people when they managed to beat Frieza?

That PQ from Kid Gohan? I think like.....30ish? Which was overkill by the time I did it. At low 20s, it felt like a tough fight.

I seem to recall I ground for Super Vegeta before I actually beat that fight.

I meant the story mode defeat of Frieza, first set of 4-5 fights.
