online pet peeves

The fact that Brawl had better online...

The fact that Brawl had better online...

That's just not true. >_>

 

[Ffamran]

The things I hate the most are switchers, stop ****ing switching and let me beat your ***. How can I have time to learn how they play if they keep switching? If they're better than me, which is very rare. And then people who roll like hell or just stands around waiting or shooting projectiles. A lot of cowards online, hate that. I'd rather lose than be an annoying coward playing like an *******.

And of course all sorts of lag, and when the controls don't listen. Or when I just mess up and the player thinks he's better than me. Otherwise, no problem.

I'm a switcher 'cause I play For Glory for fun. I just love messing around even if I'm in last place 10 times in a row - I think that happened yesterday.

I'm also that guy who stands around or shoots projectiles far away. One, lag is an issue, so I wait or dodge around until the lag stops or gets somewhat better. Also, I might stand around if I charged a Smash and realized nobody there and I know there's going to be end lag, so why not charge it all the way? I don't condone charging Quick Draw, Charge Beam, or other stuff like that and just waiting - I had a match where an Ike did that and it was annoying along with a Robin who spammed Thoron. Two, countering and defensive play has always been a viable strategy; sometimes it more defensive-offensive, offensive-defensive, or outright defensive in whatever game. Projectiles, well, I'm far, safe, and everyone's ignoring me, so why not pelt stuff at them and provoke them?

Anyway... Spamming. I hate spamming. I met a lot of Bowsers who did nothing, but spam Side Smashes and Bowser Bombs. It's predictable, but hard to punish when two other guys wants to kill everyone.

 

[RADSheikah]

Well I played quite bit of Online Brawl and I had less lag then than I do now.

 

[chipndip]

Well I played quite bit of Online Brawl and I had less lag then than I do now.

Then something is blatantly wrong now that wasn't back then.

I hope I never play you then...

The lag would be horrible from the US to Sweden. I would definitely be waiting around.

 

[RADSheikah]

Well less noticable lag...

 

[NewZen]

-Lil Mac abundance in FG
-Rosalina and Sheik players being near rampant and extremely hard to handle because of the flat stages...
-LAG...LAG....oh, did I forget to mention the LAG?

 

[supercoolmayo]

Played the same person 24 straight times, and i kept winning decisively dude just never quit.
Playing a really good player, and after one match they drop out. How am I supposed to get better
Is it bad that I use the lag to my advantage?
Too many players use little mac, guess they don't know about his bad recovery.
Roselina I hate her.

 

[Kekezo]

I've got a new one.




I hate this character with a burning passion now. Literally every single Lucario I've ever played against so far (a lot) does nearly the exact same thing. Once they realize that they can't fight me, they start running to the side of the stage opposite me and spamming aura sphere. Usually they're at some 100+%, too. They can also spam force palm and/or counter if I don't get hit by any of their aura spheres while approaching. If by some means I can knock them off the stage, they come right back unless they die before they get the chance to do anything (which doesn't happen often because Lucario seems to not be very light). It drags out the match in the most boring, annoying, and unfun way possible, and they often end up winning because I get hit by an aura sphere or so while trying to reach them.
I wouldn't be this salty about it if it wasn't so common, but I run into at least a couple during each session I play. The worst thing is that it's incredibly effective, and if they beat me once they just start spamming Lucario and repeating the same tactics.

We don't know that... I almost never gets lag. You should get better internet. If it lags it's not my fault, cause I got 100mbit/s.

 

[CaramelLover123]

Lag and all of the Little Mac users. It gets annoying.

 

[Carluben]

There are 2 characters that are the most annoying things to play against: Counter-spam Ike, and stalling Palutena. Shtick gets old quick.

It sounds like Mario's side special shuts that down hard.

I live in the US where the industry wants us to use dial-up or charge extreme rates for like 2 mbit/s. Can I move to where you live? I heard Sweden is a great place to live.

I must find these players, show them what a real lucario player looks like and destroy them, I keep hearing about this kind of thing so much its becoming my next pet peeve.

 

[Shulkasaurus]

Un-technical players.

 

[Pink!]

Hmm..let's see..
People who spam projectiles
People who spam counter (basically every that I've encountered)
People who roll/run away/stall, especially if they're just dragging the timer
People who just spam a single attack (ex. 's Electroshock)
And people who taunt literally every single time you get launched even slightly

 

[elitex12]

Found out another one of my pet peeves... and I decided it should be shown in video form, albeit blurry and wth Guiles Theme.

Well that's a new one. XD

 

[RosalinaSama]

Sonics who charge their fsmash from the other side of the stage expecting me to just run into it
and when they finally do end up getting a kill they taunt 3 times

WTF? Yeah sure come on over. It is a great country in comparison but I don't love it.

I dont get this. I hear this complaint about Lucario all the time. i rarely face lucarios, but the 2-3 i have faced played the same way i do - brute force into your face and chaotically attacking. I never spam the sphere because until i got like 100 damage it doesnt do jack anyway and its deathly obvious, and even then i usually only use it as an anti-recovery or part of a combo.
And i often forget to use counter, since i feel his counter is the weakest of them all

i can tell by the way my opponents react when i charge into them that they expect me to be camping. They panic. I would much rather UpB into your face than spam spheres.

 

[TJ-Works]

• When one person plays only one match against me in For Glory, and decide to leave straight after. Regardless whether they win or lose, it just irks me that either they think I'm not skilled enough to fight 'em, or that they wanna find someone weaker than me to fight. I only leave after one match if the lag between us is intolerable to go through again.
• Little Mac on FD stages. It took me a while before I realised how much of an advantage they have on a flat stage. I faced one earlier today that completely floored me, that I couldn't seem to get one second to prepare fighting back. Bah. >_>

 

[Woods]

People who roll way to much. It should be nurfed in this game, from what i can recall in brawl isn't there like some frames where you couldn't do anything at all and be attacked?
Also little macs i have trouble defending since im used to yoshi's shield taking a bit longer to shield attacks
(sorry for my horrible English)

THAT. I HATE THAT SO MUCH.

 

[Malcolmnex]

NEW ONE.

getting cut off from a Match WHEN IM ABOUT TO WIN!!!! you'd think doesnt happen alot huh?.... 25 times
to quote something someone else earlier... online is worse than brawl. for fun and any 4 player match is unplayable 90% of the time

Found out another one of my pet peeves... and I decided it should be shown in video form, albeit blurry and wth Guiles Theme.

someone had a rough day.....

 

[SwoodGrommet]

People who taunt if I accidentally SD. Even more irksome if I've been stomping them the entire time; I mean you literally would not have gotten me off that stage if I didn't slip up with the dodgy circle pad.

• When one person plays only one match against me in For Glory, and decide to leave straight after.

Yeah I don't really appreciate that either. I mean for all I know, they could have had a good reason to leave and I try to keep that in mind, but it still kind of bothers me slightly. If I won, maybe you should fight me again to improve or have another shot. If you won, maybe I want to fight you again to get better. Oh well, I ain't a mind reader, I don't know why he/she had to leave

 

[Dsull]

i leave after 1 game if the game was laggy or you proved to me youre a cheesehead not a legitimate player (link arrow spamming, bowser suicide kills, robin keep-away games).
Also i know Robin is a projectile character. Theres a difference between camping and running away. I have had many timeout games against a Robin that didnt even try to fight me except to even the stocks if i managed to catch them. Thats not fun at all since its EIGHT MINUTES of grueling boredom chasing your butt around.
Faced a mirror match Lucario just now, but it was just way too jumpy so i left afterwords. Saddens me because thats a mirror thats actually pretty damn funny lol even with the lag we did a ton of combos at the exact same time, both missing so we just went off into the air doing our combo lol (landing and doing a downtilt away from each other somehow at the same exact time....lol)

 

[ThundertheDragon]

The lag. I tried playing with a friend, and the lag was so bad it was virtually unplayable. Hopefully It'll get fixed.

 

[Yokta]

The only thing worse than a person who spams the same move over and over is a person who spams the same move over and over and wins.

 

[Ragna22]

Everyone's finding a legion of Little Macs but me lol.

Anyway I only have one pet peeve and it's players who decide in the middle of the match to not take the fight seriously so they'll get all cocky and start using really basic and casual strategies, I've won quite a few matches against guys who had the potential to beat me just cause, I dunno they wanted to prove some kind of point.

 

[Yuritails]

My pet peeves are Little Mac users and their forward tilt, Bowser suicides, and the lag. While I barely have a problem with lag, the match becomes a power point when there is lag.

 

[elitex12]

The lag. I tried playing with a friend, and the lag was so bad it was virtually unplayable. Hopefully It'll get fixed.

From what I understand a good chunk of the lag is from peoples connection. It could be you or your friend that has a "eh" quality connection. But I won't deny that its annoying.

 

[Mister the Wizard]

I hate Lag, newb little mac's (don't mind actual little mac mains but just people who switch to him), anyone who spams counters because this game is rife with them, and what I like to call "rollers"

 

[TKOWL]

Worst thing to happen is when the game lags in the middle of following up on the edges. Messes up my timing so much and I leave my opponent a free entry back on the stage.

That and for some reason, Gordo Toss is super glitchy when playing online, there are times the gordo will stop in midair for no reason or end up under Dedede. Don't know if this is a common problem but it's annoying, but partially hilarious.

 

[Xman321]

You might see it coming, but the 9 poor *******s I faced before you did not, and I'm gonna stick with what works.

Off Topic, but I love your avatar. Viridi FTW!
