we all know, and this private server isnt a hoax. most people use the dbor forum now. there is no prediction i dont know who told you may but theres no news on the release date of it
dumke and the rest of the development team havnt set a date on anything they have said, the trailer form their 7000 likes on facebook video says 2014 but i dont see it being anytime soon as the models are floating, there are no npc's etc and they are planning on having it in english so translating etc would also take a month or so. besides this is being done as a hobby for them and is being done in their spare time so it will also take longer because of that.
if you go to the forums section of the link provided on the top post you will get more information etc, remember to use the search function first though :P
this is what happens when kids going on summer holiday has done, all the "i want it for my summer break, come out summer break" and now rumours even start saying it'll be out by the start of the summer holidays smh.
made in spare time, translate the WHOLE game, no mobs, no npc, buggy battle, floating chars/above ground, glitch patching, filters, coding, textures, text box forums, moderating the forums, adding things to the game, fixing up the servers, and SO much more.
Will be done in 2 months. kk
EDIT: Talking about your source.
In my opinion, this is a good thing. Not saying DBO was bad but now that a taste of it has been played. Maybe this is a chance for something greater to come from it. As much as I enjoyed it, honestly a DBZ MMO should not focus on a class system. The Melee, Ranged, and Healer roles kinda ruin the freedom that a DBZ game should have. Letting players have freedom in creating their character helps immerse them in the world. And with DBZ I think that would be great. That's just my two-cents anyway.
And just to add, while I haven't been an active member of the forums here, I've always been coming back to see what new developments have come. Still waiting for good news.
The way i see it is that it is going to take a very long time to complete the game.
They did promised this year, so i think the game will come out near the end of this year.
I do like the fact that everyone will start all over again and not use your old acc from DBO, because this gives everyone an equal chance to compete in the game.
I also like that they are doing it because they want to do it, like a hobby and not just for the money.
This way they are more motivated and will listen to our suggestions and make the game better. But to keep them motivated, we must keep supporting them.
