Alright! Took Kat and Ana and Jeff off the list!

You should probably take Gray Fox off the list, too. He obviously isn't going to be included without Snake.

 

[GamerSoul]

I'm gonna ram this game up my ass

I almost busted out laughing at work...almost.

 

[Artanisix]

Do we have info on all the custom abilities available yet?

 

[MrSaturn99]

one thing was to read a miiverse comment... it was "different" to see it in action.

And yet we saw it in the direct, complete with negative consequences.

i'm not a pro on smash bros,so i'm genuinely asking..why it's so bad that a move has some kind of lag?it just means that you can't spam it but you need to be careful when you use it..if that's also a good move (like cap. falcon knee),that sounds like good balance to me.

 

[Lunar15]

I can't get over how good that menu theme is.

Oops. I forget to take him out.

It's good balance, but folks don't want their character of choice to be balanced. They want the character to be absurdly good.

Yeah it's intended for balance. People upset about the lag probably use that character and don't want their character nerfed, but there's nothing inherently wrong with move lag. With that said, since I really suck at timing and tend to button mash, characters light on lag are probably what I'd be better off using.

it was in the smash direct.

 

[ec0ec0]

you are completely right. 20 minutes and 43 seconds in the smash direct aparently.

I didnt remember it. I am sorry.

edit: thanks to Diprosalic and Mrsaturn99 for pointing it out

Lag disables certain maneuvers and sometimes leave your character able to be hit even though he landed the first attack.

Does Dr. Mario's nair still get stronger the longer it's out?

people fear the game will become defense orientated. more lag means attacking is a huge risk. that's the logic behind not wanting lag.

 

[astrogamer]

aside from stuff that came before (Mario, Kirby, Palutena, Mii Fighters mainly), no. Some moves have come out (like Ganondorf Warlock punch becoming Warlock stab)

 

[Diprosalic]

i absolutely suck with Palutena, can't figure out how to play with her. her whole moveset feels off to me. need more time to figure it out.

You can simplify a lot of the moves in Smash into two categories: Low-risk and high-risk. Marth, for example, was characterized by his wide variety of low-risk moves, which gave him a lot of different options in the heat of battle and allowed him to perform long, intricate combos. Most of Smash's characters have historically been designed around the balance of high risk and low risk moves. It sounds like Marth's moves have all been turned into high risk moves with lots of lag, which goes against his history of being a fast character with lots of options

Thanks, appreciate it.

I'm not sure the game will truly be competitive-viable (I consider brawl non-competitive) but it'd be interesting to see if custom moves become standard or if they're disallowed.

 

[Simply Sarah]

Yep. Nothing less fun than being punished in a fighting game because your move, uh, connected normally.

 

[JoeInky]

Holy fuck.

I was just playing smash run and felt a really sharp pain on my arm, looked to see what it was and there was a wasp stinging my bloody arm, knocked the thing off and then tried to see where it fell so I could stamp on the little shit and it was being attacked by a spider.

What the fuck just happened.

Damn, Smash Run is hardcore.

 

[SmithnCo]

Jelly, still waiting for delivery lol

At least there's Treehouse soon.

 

[Magnet_Man]

Could you direct me to how I would do this? :<

Stressing out, this is harder than I thought it would be..

Do you have a Japanese 3DS? If so, all you should need to do is go onto the eShop and they'll prompt you to make an account.

 

[Golnei]

Add a Uwe Boll movie, and this is pretty much my nightmare

 

[Majukun]

but from what i heard,shield are really weak and break easily in this game..if you are able to spam attacks without any kind of lag ,wouldn't it become too offense orientated ?

You're playing too much Smash, you're hallucinating now.

You and the spider are friends now. Hook it up with a 3DS and play Smash Run together.

Man first no online and now this? I'm starting to dislike Smash Run. /:

 

[PadWarrior]

pit doesn't really have a killing move. i didn't like him in brawl, don't like him here.

i really like greninja is side b is awesome.

Shoot was hoping pit got some power

My first online match. Still trying to figure out how to make this more steady, but it does the job.

The game didn't have TOO much lag and was most definitely playable.

 

[Diprosalic]

can anyone else confirm this

played smash run, wasp disconfirmed.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

can anyone else confirm this

Confirmed: Wasp stings sting like a mother fucker and Spiders are best bros.

 

[Lunar15]

Arena Ferox looks 100% times better than Coliseum.

 

[Anth0ny]

Anthony how are pit and greninja?

Okay played Pit, Dark Pit and Greninja.

I never really played Pit in Brawl so I can't really give a detailed Break down. But I will tell you he felt good to play. Decent range on his moves, good knock back on his back air which works as a kill move, good recovery... not a lot of lag on his moves. So he felt good upon initial impression, unlike Marth, Lucina and Falcon.

Dark Pit felt exactly the same lololololo

Greninja, on the other hand, feels AMAZING. Just like the Best Buy demo. Like Sheik Jr. Maybe a bit faster, just less powerful. Greninja is my kind of character, for sure. Just need to get used to his movement, cause he's quick.

Just unlocked Doc

 

[DaBoss]

Falco d-throw stage spike lol.

Weta Stings In!

Definitely.

...Does he have a 3DS trophy, by any chance?

Yeah well, I don't like your impressions

FUCK.

 

[Hero]

Is Sheik back to her Melee level of being OP? Can her aerials kill people again?

 

[Anth0ny]

Yeah well, I don't like your impressions

Hey man, it hurts me the most to say it


Doc though.... Mario is BACK. Real down b, real down air, and KOBE!!!!!!

Is Sheik back to her Melee level of being OP? Can her aerials kill people again?

Nowhere near as strong as Melee, but she's quick enough to rack up damage to 120ish percent. At that point, fair and bair kill closer to the edge of the stage.

Thanks to the ledge mechanics, she can freely chase up stage and up b back to the ledge with no fear of being edge hogged
