Cool stuff you noticed while playing 3.5

[Rueckkoppler]

Hey guys,

what cool changes or additions did you discover by playing Project M 3.5? I noticed that Link now has a new taunt: His ocarina! Hit down on the digital pad for a very short time (try slipping over the edge with your fingernail), then Link takes his ocarina & you'll able to play with A & the digital pad. Leave with B.

Same goes to his other "special taunt!": Tab right on the digital pad & Navi appears, saying: "Hey! Listen!".

(I know, the first tip is also described in the official changelog, but let's just collect some things in this thread. There might be a lot you'd never notice at first glance!)

Bowser has his own victory theme. It's a segment of his theme from Super Mario 64.

 

[BigHairyFart]

The Navi taunt was actually in 3.0

The coolest thing I noticed was that most, if not all sword characters have new sound effects for their sword swings. The sound really cool, but the one that I don't like is Marth's Dolphin Slash got its Melee sound back, I like the Brawl one better.

 

[BridgesWithTurtles]

Sonic's Jet Set Radio costume leaves a trail of spray paint clouds behind him when using moves that create a motion blur effect, like Homing Attack.

I feel the same way.

 

[shapular]

They changed the names of the CPU levels.

 

[PandaPanda Senketsu]

I noticed that Lucas was just an overall worse character, best change imo

 

[IronChar]

Roy's PM taunts have been redone. sadly they're a bit longer.

Charizard has a new up taunt

Ganondorf is slightly tweaked to seem less clone like. warlock punch still exists in spirit via smash attack AND the secret taunt (SOOoo OP, such crazy knockback/range for a single move)

the new costumes actually rock, still missing ice mario, but they got the rocket mewtwo, Roy has a black and blue (that I swear pays homage to the game he was in) shiny purple scarfless falcon, wolf/marth/ness//Gannondorf//ikeDK alt team colors, among others

ummm all three of my mains getting allmost unplayablynerfed in stupid ways for no reason other than their quirks being pretty good

why hating lucas bro, if people thought he was to good then the all need to look at him again

 

[ZeroJanitor]

The underside of Dream Land. Check that out sometime.

 

[GP&B]

I noticed that when playing against projectile-using characters in 3.5 as Ike, I hate my life a bit less than I used to.

 

[XalchemistX]

If you tilt the c-stick up with fox, people suddenly fly off the stage.

 

[Sleeplost]

The CPU names are different. It's actually pretty funny.

Uhm... Link's Ocarina taunt..?
A lot of cool stuff. I'm really enjoying 3.5 despite Ganon losing his Warlock Punch.

 

[ChiePet]

I found when using Peach and you hit a Metal Box, she becomes Pink-Gold Peach from Mario Kart 8 instead of Metal. Personally I love this little change.

Also idk if this was a thing or not, but the invisible wall underneath FD is no longer there, So glide all day~

 

[Kankato]

I can't turn off the camera lock in debug mode.

 

[cmart]

@ Kankato For anyone having problems with debug options, you can reset them by toggling pause to hold.

 

[Narpas_sword]

happened to everyone.

 

[Rueckkoppler]

happened to everyone.

But that's certainly not "cool"... you can complain in another thread

Something else... is it new that Wario actually steals coins while pummeling an opponent? (There's the typical sound and a coin appearing for every hit)

 

[Narpas_sword]

oh im not complaining =)

wario pummel was in 3.0

I like that samus Zair got weakened. Because not it jab-resets

 

[Rueckkoppler]

Haha sorry I wanted to quote the guy that you quoted.

 

[Abeebo]

After setting Debug Mode to lock the camera, disable debug mode. Pause the game and use the camera to an angle you'd like. Unpause the game. You're now playing with a custom fixed camera angle. Pause the game again to reset the camera angle, and just re-enable debug mode to unlock the camera when done. You could zoom out way far and play as if you're all ants. Or go behind the stage and play a 'mirror' match. Or whatever. Pretty neat!

lol u mean all his gravity slide mechanics from his pk magnet? dude multiple characters can go under dreamland

 

[KayB]

No he means pause the game and look underneath the stage jeez

 

[shairn]

You can look into Zelda's room in Hyrule Castle.

 

[ICYoshi]

Under the combo house in Hyrule castle.

 

[Time/SpaceMage]

Roy has a new final smash. It's like Marth's, but with a volcano.
I saw CPU Stand Luigi fall out of it early once, but haven't been able to reproduce that.

Squirtle's final smash is like a giant double upsmash.

 

[Lil Puddin]

Zelda seems scary fast at attacking now!

But for some reason the controls feel jankier for all chars I use. Mainly the cstick and trying to move after an attack. Is there a reason for this?

 

[Fortress]

Little details like being able to read the sign on Metal Cavern in front of the map, and the fact that the Metal Cap Box in the background isn't filled in, because the switch isn't pressed.

The combo tent being called the 'Hut of Life' in Hylian script was also pretty cool.

I agree also, yet another contribution to my huge issue with the PM guys bringing back the more boring melee SFX replacing the Brawl ones. I notice now even Mario's dodges and rolls are a lot more quieter.

Were you using the TKbreezy tourney pack? That one had input assist turned on by mistake.

I never understood the desire to downgrade in sound effects. And now they've touched my G&W

Well least its nice to finally have some supporters in this, really do think this is starting to get close to being Melee 2.0 after all. Seriously guys, stop messing around with the SFX so much and leave it as it was in brawl =/

 

[drsusredfish]

wow i went straight to training mode when i got the game. i need to stop and smell the roses.

 

[reportingsfnoobs]

@ cmart Hey, what's with the double-jump rings appearing when you land on the ground or perform a perfect wavedash? I noticed that this only happens in Final Destination. Aren't they only supposed to appear when you perform a second jump?

 

[cmart]

Yeah that's a bug. We've noted it thanks

 

[666blaziken]

Dry Bowser's eyes turn red when he does his side b.

 

[Marthmario]

Dry Bowser's eyes turn red when he does his side b.

He actually does this with pretty much all of his attacks now.

Maybe. I will redownload from the site instead of a mirrored download.

 

[McSlur]

I noticed Roy/Marth/Link/Toon Link all having really nice sword sounds now.
SWIPE>SWIPE^SWIPE^SWIPE>SWOOSH!
And Tingle staring at you inside Isai's hut is pretty fecking terrifying cool too.

 

[shapular]

Maybe. I will redownload from the site instead of a mirrored download.

3.5 should be fine no matter where you download it from. It was the version of 3.02 that I was referring to. If you were used to TKbreezy's with the input assist on, then it'd feel like you couldn't act as fast after an attack.
