defensive gameplay, there's actually nothing wrong with it.

 

[theONEjanitor]

that true. but offensive gameplay is way more hype, way more fun to watch (and arguably, to play), and way more appealing to outsiders

 

[o-Serin-o]

Lol it's gonna the same Brawl with more characters and better graphics. They aren't gonna change anything to stray away from the target audience of 10 year olds who have friends coming over for a sleepover.

also, i never woulda thought, but this new Killer Instinct games looks kinda dope too

you build meter by attacking a block lol. now that is an offensive-minded game.

too bad its a damn xbox one exclusive lol nobody's gonna buy that ****

 

[shaSLAM]

Wonder if they're gonna have it in arcades though? lol.

 

[GeorgeTHPS]

What's an arcade?

We need to get on TMNT: Tournament Fighters for SNES.

 

[shaSLAM]

There's that one Irish themed bar on Richard Airington that has a Killer Instinct consol, have u ever seen that, Kev? lol

I forgot arcades are a thing of the past. Either that or they basically look like a Cici's Pizza arcade now minus Cruisin' Round Da World. sad sad.

DIE HARD ARCADE 4 LIFE

 

[shaSLAM]

Houston girls love da way it goes dowwwnnnn
At-lanta girls love da way it goes dowwwn
Vegass girls love da way it goes down

 

[theONEjanitor]

ok i'm developing a P:M wario strat revolving entirely around side-b/dash grab mixups

 

[TheReflexWonder]

That doesn't sound like it would be very effective against standard dashdancing bull****.

 

[theONEjanitor]

yeah it probably wouldn't work against good players.
i've found that people get hit by side-b just randomly sometimes, I think people misjudge how far it travel

 

[TheReflexWonder]

They're too busy outprioritizing his other **** with dashdance -> shuffled N-Air.

What does work against good players is dashdancing into a D-Smash. That would also set up for the stuff you want to make happen.

 

[MilesWC7]

i wanna melee.....someone melee with me </3

 

[GeorgeTHPS]

If your computer is good enough, there's always Dolphin netplay.

 

[MilesWC7]

haha my computer is absolute garbage now. will have to wait on that. need some montgomery people to practice with since there's a birmingham tourney coming up and i dont wanna suck balls then

 

[GeorgeTHPS]

That sucks. I wish I could make it down to Montgomery.

If anyone ever wants to Melee online with Dolphin netplay, hit me up.

 

[shaSLAM]

if anyone ever wants to play brawl online hmu lol

i think im gonna start doing it again. there's not much to do in the center of this state.

 

[GeorgeTHPS]

Brawl on Dolphin is better than WiFi too. Not that I'd condone such a thing.

 

[GeorgeTHPS]

I now own the version of 1on1 Government that lets you do 2 on 2 matches. Anyone going to Top Games on the 20th should get on it. The problem is that I don't know where my PlayStation multitap is.

Edit: Tentative EVO Pools are up. I don't know who all from the Huntsville crew is going, but Andy drew pool B59. Eggz is on the other side of it. Wreck his face, Andy.

Edit 2: j00t is in B64 with Fly Amanita and Cort. Chad is in F60 with I don't recognize anyone. Kick ass, guys, seriously.

Andy now has Wobbles, Eggz and Wizzrobe in his pool. Chad has Ice. I have Fly Amanita and Stricnyn3.

 

[Handorin]

Gah. Wish I could go. I've driven through Vegas twice now on my vacation, but I won't be anywhere near it during EVO.

 

[shaSLAM]

ive kinda started doing some MMA work and like

knowing how to play fighting games actually helps alot LOL, it's not that weird if you think about because they are based off of real fight scenarios I would assume. It's weird how much they end up helping me in though i mean, they definitely toughen your mentality. sounds crazy to say.

also weird how many irl fighting terms people use in fighting games also. i mean, i said it before, it makes sense.

 

[theONEjanitor]

olimar confirmed for new smash game

FFFFUUUUUU

 

[TheReflexWonder]

Ideally, they'll understand that unhittable grab Pikmin that go twice as long as any grab should with little lag is a broken concept. Stuff like ridiculous U-Smash pales in comparison to how incredibly safe his grab is.

 

[BSL]

Little lag?
No grab armor
It's not so bad.

 

[TheReflexWonder]

Obnoxious range, autocombo/KO move, zero risk, zero thought. Basically never a reason not to use it (intelligently).

 

[shaSLAM]

it doesnt matter if there's no grab armor if your opponent can't punish it :/
I hope olimar gets a serious revamp, just thinking of a buffed, similar-to-brawl olimar makes me shudder.

 

[theONEjanitor]

i just think the character should be a little more thoughtful, rather than "point your stick in the direction of your character" and "pivot grab anytime someone comes near you"
but i suppose brawl has several mindless characters like that

 

[BSL]

Oh alright.

 

[shaSLAM]

so like what happened with melee and that event?

That's true, but I think Olimar is the most egregious case of it. It was very degenerative.

so like what happened with melee and that event?

They got a ton of publicity and hype. An Ice Climbers player got second over M2K, Armada, Dr. Peepee, and Hungrybox, which is unheard of at such an event.

 

[j00t]

I hope this actually makes Nintendo aware that there is a huge amount of interest for melee, and for a quality successor to melee as well.

 

[Saki-]

Melee sux, play Brawl etc.

 

[shaSLAM]

who all is going to bham this saturday?

 

[Roboturner]

I pretty much have no one to play melee with now. **** sucks

 

[TheReflexWonder]

who all is going to bham this saturday?

I should be. Billy should be.

 

[_Keno_]

I'm there for sure.
