Event - E3 Invitational 2014 Checklist of things to Look for in Smash Demo

[Luigi#1]

There is no such thing as overhyping, just bad customers.

Bad customers = Still customers.

Here's one, does Marth still speak Japanese?

 

[Chiroz]

Here's one, does Marth still speak Japanese?

Honestly, I hope he still does.

"Mina, mitiete kure" is one of the coolest quotes from Smash itself, along Falcon Punch, at least for me.

(I have no idea if I wrote it correctly, I wrote it exactly as it sounds).

 

[Bravetriforcer]

Can Metroid crawl?

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Something occurred to me. What are the chances they'll allow pictures?

High, I could take pictures of last year's E3 when Mario Kart 8 was unveiled and demoed. Unless they feel like they need to be much more secretive with Smash than they were with Mario Kart, I don't see why we couldn't take pictures, specially of publicly available demos.

 

[Mr.Random]

Curious to see if hitstun will be restored in this game. That was my biggest problem with Brawl, the fact that you could barely perform combo strings. Acting out of hitstun was extremely annoying to deal with so I'm hoping you can't air dodge or use an aerial out of it. This would also get rid of momentum cancelling which allowed some characters to live until ridiculous %s. Please Sakurai .

 

[Morbi]

The event is public; so I don't see why or how they would enforce a "no pictures/video" policy.

>implying Pyrosphere will even be playable.
>implying Sakurai wouldn't want to tease Ridley again.

Watch Pyrosphere only be available as FD.

What does that even translate to?

 

[Morbi]

What does that even translate to?

"Everyone, please watch me."

 

[Chiroz]

What does that even translate to?

Its supposed to literally be translated to "Everyone, look at me" or something similar. But the context is supposed to be something along Ike's "I fight for my friends" where Marth is actually asking his friends to "watch over him", in a protective kind of way, sort of like how a mother watches over her kids.

But I don't care about the meaning, I just love how it sounds.

Certainly, it was probably my favorite taunt in the game; if I go to the event, I might actually try out taunts. Maybe the fabled fourth taunt with be in Smash 4?

Me, too, it's one of the better ones to taunt cancel in P:M

 

[Tristan_win]

I wonder do you guys think you have enough time to see if Decay in the game? It's a bit hard to test for but it would be nice to know if it's still in or not.

What is this supposed to mean?

 

[Sahfarry]

What is this supposed to mean?

Boomerang flower is an item, and since Link (well, Toon Link at least) has a boomerang (unless it got swapped without me knowing), I want to know what happens when he gets that item. It seems like it's be an item where you press A to toss a boomerang. So, what if you used Link's own boomerang alongside the item?

My guess is that he would shoot another boomerang. I mean, there are Bob-Bombs and Link has a bomb, he can throw them both but one will hit first. There are also Laser Guns and Falco has a Laser Gun, he can alternate shooting them. I don't think I am understanding why you think having 2 boomerangs will cause some weird effect.

Never said theyd have a weird effect. Really, I just wanted to know if, since boomdrangs come back to you, and you can avoud them to keep them flying around the stage, I just wanted to see if they will both fly around at the same time.

 

[samsparta21]

We're all planning this so carefully, trying to squeeze every bit of information we can out of the demo.

I love you people <3

I'll be sure to. Testing out final smashes and looking at the roster.

 

[Priap0s]

Can villager jump after his own chopped down tree and pocket it? Oh the fear of facing a villager with a tree in his pocket!

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Oh the fear of facing a villager with a tree in his pocket!

DAMN IT BRAIN! Why you so nasty?

 

[extremechiton]

check if villager has a zair, and if it can be used for recovery. im guessing if he does, his zair will be his fishing rod, while on the ground its the butterfly net. (imaging seeing the net stretch as far as links zair with the tether buffs)

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

Up Throw -> Thunder (now a meteor smash) -> Up Smash.

That's not an Up Smash, that's the second hit of the thunder when his body turns into a hitbox when he is truck by the thunder.

The combo is actually just U-throw > Thunder.

 

[relaxedexcorcist]

Someone needs to check if Sonic can still cancel his spindashes with shield.

The most important thing is obviously the Brawl hitstun breaker.

The not most important thing is trying Smash Taunts with all sorts of available characters on their home franchise stages. If it crashes the game in any case, this is good news. If result is sensible, this is even better news.
EDIT: Though not necessarily for Snake, I suppose...

Could you explain what exactly you're talking about here? I don't understand what any of this means...

 

[stan423321]

I don't really think you could not look that up, but here you go.

One of the most weird gameplay design decisions in Brawl was that you easily could break out of hitstun with an air dodge, significantly voiding combo ability. To quote SmashWiki

This new mechanic is one of the most controversial additions to Brawl[.]

Now this thing is not confirmed to be happening or not happening by any means, and it could obviously change later in development, but checking its current status wouldn't hurt. Especially if dev team actually analyses the way people play the game (which probably will happen at E3).

As of Smash Taunts, we're talking conversations here.

 

[BigHairyFart]

You mean like Snake's codex thing? Sorry if I seem oblivious, it's been forever since I paid any attention to Brawl, so I've forgotten a lot about it.

Ugh... why it would crash the game if they aren't ready? This is a demo build ready to be played not a beta build which would be an early build of the game. We'll probably have a version suited for us and so, they would remove completely unfinished features here.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

As for the air dodges I think there was something going on in that Mario vs Sonic footage in the direct. Mario certainly was air dodging a lot. Does it look like he's dodging out of stun?

 

[Boss N]

Something to keep in mind is that this is a demo of a game still under developement, depending on player feedback subtle changes to gameplay may be altared between the demo and the actual release of the game. Also this is me just being my cynical self, but I wouldn't be expecting more than 3 alternate costumes, however I'm sure there's gonna be more in the actual release of the game. The good news to all of this is if there is anything dissapointing (which I highly doubt) there's a strong chance that it won't be the case in the final product

 

[Boss N]

Possibly, but then there was Sonic vs Marth in which Sonic pulled off an impressive looking combo involving 4 moves that looked like Marth couldn't air dodge out of. And there where also abunch of combos in the Greninja trailer.

Edit: Oops, sorry if this counts as a double post, is there a way to fuse this reply with my last comment?

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Here's one. Are any victory themes changed?

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

One thing I'd like to see is how many Strength Training or Yoga Poses are involved in Miss Fit's moveset.

 

[ffadicted]

I wanna know exactly how often Little Mac can use that broken move lol

 

[Hinata]

Here's one for ya. Is the result screen anything more than this?
