How do you see the future of Project M after 3.0?

[Pkjoan]

I was just thinking, now that we got all characters back what can we expect in future releases, it's a bit odd but it's fun to speculate.

 

[Anti Guy]

-New characters, very slowly
-Maybe some new features/modes as a surprise!
-The usual stage modifications, possibly a new one here or there
-Bug fixes
-Balance updates

MvC3, or the tag team feature on Dant's stream? :o
Bug fixes
A couple of more characters.

 

[Fortress]

Saaaaaaaaaaalt.

 

[Generically Epic]

3.1 or 3.a as a general bug update a month or few later. may contain more costumes if extremely lucky.
3.5 comes out that is a bigger update, about a half a year later to 8 months later...contains better 1 player mode and AI. There will probably be few new costumes and stages (including minor tweaks), perhaps with a new character, but not likely. However, by now smash 4 will have or be close to coming out: the casual people start to lose interest.
3.6, 3.5a comes out with minor bug patches. People playing smash 4. Most people have lost interest and left by now except for the hard cores.
4.0 final product with new awesome character of awesomeness like shadow, issaac, plusle/minum (to replace and fuse pichu) finalization of character balance, ALL THE COSTUMES, stage expansion. PM realizes it has lost steam, attempts to bring it over to smash 4. PM will be threatened to be shut down by nintento.

What if Smash 4 sucks like brawl did?

brawl sucked, but how many play Melee SD remix to project m?
Newer man... smash 4 is newer.

By that logic CoD is the best game ever because "teh grafix luke nize".

so you're saying that sd remix is better than pm?

 

[QQQQQQQ7777777]

No, I`m saying the quality of a game should outweigh the year it came out or the graphics. Why do you think when Brawl came out people still played Melee (Hint: Because it was better in almost every aspect)?

 

[TreK]

Why would you feel like you're supposed to only play ONE Smash game ? It's not uncommon in the FGC to play up to 4-5 games and attend tourneys for all of them, why would it be for us ? Plus unlike FPSes for example, the platform fighting market is FAR from over-saturated with franchises. There's no need for our community to focus on a single game for each franchise in our genre : not the newest, and not the best either. No need for any Smash game to 'die', really. That's one of the preconceived ideas that led to the community split imho.

You like two different smash games ? Well lucky for you, there are going to be tourneys for all of them. And you'll be able to attend twice as many tourneys.

agreed.

Melee SD remix is really great, but Melee itself is also really great.

Brawl wasn't nearly on the level of Melee, so PM existing is a much bigger deal than Melee SD remix existing.

So I don't think it's about new, so much as the degree of improvement.

 

[Saito]

Why complain about the smash games?

64 is great, but has a small roster. Controller isn't too nice for most people but it's still a blast to play.

Melee has all of the craziness of being extremely fast pased. It's insane to watch and insane to play. It's great to play, but it's kind of hard for some people to enjoy it because it's too fast. Stuff happens at mach 5 to them while we just break it down though.

Brawl was slow by comparison to melee. It also changed a good 7 years of established mechanics so switching to it was probably difficult for a few people. But it was still very fun too. Hell, It's probably my top pick for playing with friends since we play 4 players when everyone gets together.

Project M is that reinvented melee with a ton more balance. It's also a great blast to play with friends but right now I don't think anyone I play with, myself included is having fun with it. Everyone saw the 3.0 trailer and now when we play we're all just depressed that we don't have the missing characters.

I haven't been able to keep them playing M for over 6 rounds thanks to this, and I have no motivation to play against computers if im not the Boy, Roy himself.

15 MORE DAYS!!!!1

 

[Rikana]

I foresee people fighting for their friends.

 

[Kally Wally]

More like 守るべきもののために、負けられない!

 

[lukifer]

Beyond the addition of new clone characters, which, as Anti Guy mentioned, will likely be a slow process, I suspect one of the main things they'll work on is more engine improvements. Unless they've made all of the major ones that they wanted to in 3.0, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's still a few outstanding issues like the momentum weirdness with teching.

Oh, and more alt costumes of course. Gotta keep those art guys busy.

 

[arcticfox8]

I foresee people buying new wrist straps
Also balance updates bug fixes blah blah yeah clones costumes

 

[Renji64]

I see more hype coming but hopefully more engine advancements.

 

[Silent Wolf]

its going to be how it is now lol. adding samus and ICs doesnt change much.

 

[210stuna]

I foresee more people complaining about something.

 

[Fortress]

Oh, hey, you 'dat guy. Play Wolf. Ya' good.

 

[BoomToon]

I recently started playing Project M and I love it so far, really can't wait for 3.0. I find myself playing it over normal Brawl anymore. I really do hope they continue adding different costumes or a new character here and there though.

 

[Saito]

3.0+ updates, did we forget that we still have the possibility of the PMBR making new event matches, reworking classic mode, The subspace emissary, etc...

Which brings up my next questions.
Will the PMBR make 2 trophies for Roy/Mewtwo in the form of his classic clear and his all star clear?
Will the PMBR be able to implement Mewtwo and Roy in the SSE?

 

[UberAndrew]

I'm really hoping they at least attempt to fix and incorporate the stage expansion codes and possibly alt stage loader codes. We have all the characters plus Mewtwo and Roy now, so now we just need all the stages we can get.

They said they won`t use stage expansion until random stage select is compatible with the additional stages.

 

[Jade_Rock55]

I see people arguing about who should the next clone engine character be.
I see bug fixes and balance issues.
I see more costumes.
I see Project M ssb4 edition never having clone engine because nintendo won't leave unfinished characters.
I know there's more I can't just see it yet.

 

[QQQQQQQ7777777]

nintendo won't leave unfinished characters.

 

[Jade_Rock55]

LOL

Well maybe they seen this clone engine, so they will make sure NOT to leave unfinished characters...I hope they do though.

We`ll first need to cross the hurdle of hacking the wii u

 

[Jade_Rock55]

Good point!

Wait did ssb64 and melee have unfinished characters in the data?I mean left in the data not planned and never done.

Melee does, don`t know about 64.

this?

 

[Daftatt]

I forsee PM becoming more independently popular in the competitive community, hopefully it takes over, and hopefully it one day stops adding stuff so a metagame can mature.

 

[Giygacoal]

Maybe someday I can contribute my animation skills towards a new character. For now I'm just a filthy pleb. Which is still pretty rad for a PM fan.

 

[Johnknight1]

I see 3.0b or 3.1 coming out within 2 months to 6 months of 3.0. I also see at least 2 new characters added in say 3.1 or 3.5 by the end of 2014. While I'm at it, I see the gameplay made more like Melee gradually, more of the engine tapped into, and the continued gradual improvement of the entire Project M product with each version.

I'm really hoping they at least attempt to fix and incorporate the stage expansion codes and possibly alt stage loader codes. We have all the characters plus Mewtwo and Roy now, so now we just need all the stages we can get.

They said they won`t use stage expansion until random stage select is compatible with the additional stages.

Well they got the random button mechanics down with the Clone Engine, so I imagine they could find something with the stage expander.

It would also be cool if they continued to do stuff like that with the Project M outfit expander, and heck, maybe even a music expander.

This would all be awesome to top off with a SD card size limit expander!

I see Project M ssb4 edition never having clone engine because nintendo won't leave unfinished characters.

Nintendo has tons of unfinished data in like every game they've made ever. It's a fact.
