People are saying from the 5 minute showcase video of the 3DS version that it looks faster then the E3 Build. However when comparing it to the videos at comic con I can't find a difference. Am I crazy?

Things I've seen have made it look pretty fast, but then again, I thought it looked plenty fast at E3 and SDCC, so my discernment is probably pretty poor to judge by. At the very least, it still looks like "fast" characters move with sufficient speed.

Well considering nobody who's seen the final build can talk about it I think we'll just have to wait.

I hope you understand what "Fast" actually is.

Are you saying 64 is faster than Brawl my friend? Brawl is faster than those games BUT Smash 4 now makes combo's easier but not due to speed.

Brawl is not Faster than either of those games, anyone would say the same. The floatiness of it doesn't help one bit, and the fact that everyone has acknowledged smash 4 as a faster game, it's clear that its faster than Brawl, combos is not what makes a game faster, sure it helps in the slightest, but no... Brawl is not close to as fast as either of them, everyone Sakurai said so himself =/

Having played 64, PM, and Brawl all within the last week, I can confirm 64 is faster than Brawl in most ways. All Smash4 footage I've seen makes at least movement look faster than Brawl, though some attacks are slower. Then again, some of Melee's attacks were slower than their equivalents in Brawl.

I can definitely agree on that. I played Brawl a week ago with my cousin and we both confirmed that it was way to slow in most cases, even fast fall didn't help it... Smash 4 Is looking to be faster than Brawl in most aspects and that 5 minute video shows landing lag has been improved (at least I hope it has). I want this game to be the best it can be and maybe even surpass melee so that everyone that call this game brawl 2.0 or say it's going to suck competitively can shutup.

I agree, though we should probably stop this before it turns into yet another Game Superiority thread and gets locked.

The speed looks fine, the character depth looks fine, the animations look fine, the endlag looks fine, game looks fine.

Most people have been saying since E3 that the game feels great in general, even if it isn't Meleespeed.

suprass melee nope unless it is just as responsive and less limited. It looks good so far could better if they fake that fan feedback seriously.

Nope, no one knows how the game will fair since they only played the Beta. Which was a very old build in the first place.

Meh, either way, the best thing to do is wait I guess, right now id say nobody is right nor wrong and since the game is coming to japan soon, we will see soon enough.

No way to tell properly. I think the speed was fine at E3 anyways, I'd just like to see some more potential for combos personally and I'll be fine.

Hopefully it isn't nearly as fast as Melee. I don't want to play a game on "fast forward" all the time.

What a thread this has turned in to. Anyway people are saying that the falling speed has been increased, which I ca see when looking for it now. But attack speed... it's terrible. Look at Megaman. So much lag.

Like you all have said, it's too late to call anything until the games out, but in the meantime it's okay to make assumptions. Hopefully animation speed has been increased in favor of speed and not being open.

I like 64 for what it is.
I like Melee for what it is.
I like Brawl for what it is.

I will love Smash 4 no matter how it is.

I am able to play any game I want whenever I feel like (When 4 is released) and will enjoy them all.
