Taunts are disabled in random matches.I don't know if anyone's thought of this yet, but you could use taunt messages to let other people know who you are in the random matches.
Ideally there'd be some kind of etiquette where everyone taunts once before you fight, but I see that being pretty unlikely. Of course you can always let them know who you are after sending them flying off the stage
then that completely contradicts your earlier statement that the icons shown represent the whole roster.
I think it was stated that you can only do that in friend matches.I don't know if anyone's thought of this yet, but you could use taunt messages to let other people know who you are in the random matches.

Aw, I must've missed that part. Oh well.
I'm not stupid, I'm just getting very doubtful. No lobby on the online mode is a big let down to me.
Well there is a scrollog in the screenie.
This guy sums up what is on my mind pretty simply.
i noticed that. and judging by the spacings between the end of the name and the status, it looks like 5 is now the max.
Huh...you guys are right. Well this disappointing update actually improved on an old disappointing update. Well I'm a little happy again ^^
Did it ever occur to you that people might share their friend codes through some sort of online forum/community.....like smashboards?
I knew that, but I don't care to enter random friend codes from random people. It's too **** time consuming. Would be easier to meet random people in the game, and add them as a friend with one button, like most games.
Did it ever occur to you that there probably isnt a way to communicate in game, so even though you're sharing your friend codes via a forum like this. (Which is already a hassle to deal with) Maybe you want to play a new stage, so you have to get up, walk away from the console to go check your computer and ask your 'friend' what stage to play on.
Online play is a BONUS. Not the entire focus of the game. Get over it.
but you can practice on Sandbag while you wait for matches to start! how f***ing cool is that!?
Exactly. Obviously I couldn't of put it any better myself.
I'm sorry, but Multiplayer is what smash is about. This is ONLINE multiplayer. Its the next big thing in gaming, the ability to play online with people.
Yeah, hopefully they will implement a patch that moves everyone with a Wii into the same building.
Weren't you the guy who attacked me for no reason a few weeks ago? I could swear you have it in for me just because I'm pointing out simple facts. And no **** the online is a bonus, and not the entire focus of the game. Anyone with a brain knows that. Whats your point?

To add to that, I have Metroid Prime 3, and was exchanging friend vouchers. The most annoying thing was finding a site to exchange Wii codes with, then contacting the person on MSN and discussing how many we wanted to exchange, then exchange codes, and then we had to sit there and figure out how it worked, because the manual didnt tell you.
Yeah, that's what i like to hear! =D
Have you ever been to an out of state tournament? If you haven't, you don't know what Smash is about. You only know what Smash Bros. is about.
Ehh...dude...Sakurai himself told us that in the update...
I've been to a few tournaments, one last month in fact.
Prime 3 was a breeze to set up to exchange vouchers. all of my friends were already registered on my console, so i just clicked "Configure WiiConnect24" and BAM! i could send vouchers to any friend i wanted.
Yeah except I didnt have any RL friends with a Wii, so you see, I didnt have anyone registered on my console. And to this day it only remains to be ONE person. The very same person I exchanged the vouchers with.
Okay, but that's not what Smash is about. It has become something awesome, that's true. But Smash is about multiplayer in general, not just big tourneys. So it is not wrong to expect more from an online service for such a multiplayer centric game. Phantasy Star Online had more functionality than this as far as not friends goes, and that was for Gamecube like 5 years ago.
