In Game Background cheering affect on your gameplay?

[RomeDogg]

So when I am heavy in some smash games versing whoever when the background cheering starts up and is chanting my characters name I swear I start busting out some mad combos. Its like its motivation to body my foe. Does this phenomenon ever occur when you guys play? Or is it just me? Or hell does it work vice versa for you guys and you combo hard when they are cheering for you foe?

It's a commonly known fact that whoever is being cheered for is the next character that is going to die.

I rely heavily on sound cues to react to situations, so not being able to hear them ****s me up majorly.

 

[sodapopSquid]

Yes, I do waaaaaaaay better when the crowd chants my character's name. It's pretty amazing.

 

[himemiya]

Its neutral game for me.

 

[NightShadow6]

The crowd always cheers for me when I die.

 

[cannedbread]

the crowd is just soooo loud man
that's like my only complaint

 

[Kati]

The crowd is seriously distracting. I probably play worse once they start cheering, but this was never an issue in the previous games. I just can't stand the female voices they chose.

 

[Vashimus]

I always try to get the audience to cheer for me, if I'm lucky multiple times in one game. I like having little goals like that, and try to keep the cheer going by playing better.

For those who don't know, to be the "crowd favorite" in any Smash game (though admittedly not as consistant in Brawl and P:M), you have to pull off a good combo (2 or more hits) while at or over 100% damage. So it's not uncommon to have the audience cheer for you, only for you to get killed immediately afterwards. And since light weights are KO'd easily at higher percents, the audience cheers for me far more frequently when I choose a heavier character.

the crowd always cheers for me when i die.

thhhiiiiiiiisssssssssssssssssss^^^^^^

 

[RomeDogg]

Well I guess I am one of the few then. I just get hyped when they chant for me.

 

[OSCA MIKE]

i honestly feel bad for any person playing wolf when the crowd starts chanting for him

 

[GamerGuy09]

I think they should change the rule of cheers so that they start cheering to the person who has only 1 stock left.

 

[Spire]

Kill the audience.

 

[OSCA MIKE]

see the crowd in melee was good because they were subtle and weren't louder than a goddamn jet plane taking off

seriously there should be three different sound options to adjust to in the sound slider; SFX, music, and crowd

 

[0RLY]

I don't notice any change in my ability to play whether or not there is cheering. However, I'm always baffled at what triggers the cheering.

 

[Jandlebars]

The crowd always cheers for me when I die.

Oh yes, this. Almost only when I die, too, and never when I actually do something to be proud of. >__>'
Speaking of which, I find it difficult to appreciate the cheers in Brawl as much as the Melee ones. Some Brawl cheers sound really off (like Samus', for instance).

 

[Kati]

Samus, zss, Falcon, Wolf... Rob... ugh.

 

[Vashimus]

Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing Dedede!

 

[RomeDogg]

Usually after a decently long combo the cheering starts for me I don't know whats up with the rest of your guys crowds.

 

[Vashimus]

That's when it DOES activate. When you're over 100% and you pull off a decently long combo. Thing is, you're at a high percent, so you can get killed right after the combo and the crowd starts cheering for you anyway.

the death chant.


in all seriousness, i'm rather neutral in my reaction.
sometimes things get seriously hype and i manage to pull off ridiculous combos, but typically it seems like they cheer for me when i'm holding a stock abnormally long and on average would have died by then. nevertheless, % is just a number, and you can play just like neutralgame so long as you don't get hit. haha.

 

[BryE]

It kinda puts me on edge sometimes unless I'm listening to music while I'm playing. However I think it should be toned down a bit.

Crowd chanting is way too loud imo.

 

[Kink-Link5]

Percent certainly makes a difference for what is a safe action and what isn't. You can't CC at higher percents, and things like faster tilts or grabs from the enemy become more threatening punishes.

But I agree just gay that **** up and get hit the least you can lol

One of my friends likes to CC a lot.

. . . I'm thinking about playing Peach to teach him not to CC all the time.

 

[Kink-Link5]

Wario and Charizard are good at it to.

 

[BryE]

Wario and Charizard are good at it to.

He sorta uses Wario so he would expect something like that.
Zard might be a good idea, depending on how fast his dtilt/dsmash comes out.

 

[Sixth-Sense]

I really don't like the brawl cheers, thier voices are really meh and what they say is pretty dull too, and its too loud, it doesn't bother me at all but i hope in the near future the PMBR change it so it can help the aethistic part of the mod. I'd at least change the cheers so the crowd starts chanting your name at appropiate times, of for the right (and exciting) choices. Like lets say your on your last stock and your opponent has two stocks and is under 50%, the crowd cheers for you, you start doing a combo, they start cheering for you at low volume, as the combo continues they get a little louder and louder 'till the last hit, or they say "ah" when your oppenent succesfully gets out of the combo, etc.

Like i just want them to cheer for me when i do something actually worth cheering for, or when i've lived a really long time, etc. cheer for the right things is what i want to say

 

[Shouxiao]

The crowd cheering is rare in Brawl. It would be cool if in Project M the crowd cheers for big combos or a lot damage being done.

 

[Deleted member]

I don't really care too much one way or the other, but the execution is just obnoxious in this game, mostly because it's too loud and the voices are simply awful. The circumstances that trigger it are a bit odd as well.

 

[Yung Mei]

someone rip the crowd from melee, we can worry about the cheers later, for the newcomers at least

 

[Rick Rockmann]

"Pok-e-mon! Pok-e-mon!" being the cheer for three separate characters is one of very few janky transitionary things still in this game. I wonder if there'll ever be a way to "fix" it.
maybe with community-recorded cheers for Charizard, Ivysaur and Squirtle

 

[Nkguy01]

It's not an issue for me. Anyone know what triggers it?

 

[Phaiyte]

I would honestly prefer an option to remove it. A lot of people really rely and react on sound cues to even go as far as turning music off, or specifically in the case of PM, adjusting the sound slider so it's very little bgm and mega awesomely loud sfx.

 

[Wrestlemania]

In my circle we also regard it as the death chant as half the time is is going after the person being cheered for has died. I don't think it really affects game play all that much.

I've seen that happen a lot. One character does a lot of damage. When the other character respawns they get a quick revenge kill.

 

[Mithost]

I only mess up when I'm being cheered for because I try to keep the cheering going and I get greedy with hits.
