Given the possibility of DLC, it would appear that Smash 4 board's character prediction thread's flames of rage and stupidity hath found new fuel to sate them. Still, nice to see the game is making some good impressions?

WHAT possibility of DLC? There's no evidence of such a thing happening.

Edit: I have a hard time seeing that happening because of licensing. It's not like Mario Kart 8 where Nintendo would be able to freely alter the assets whenever they want, they need all the 3rd parties whose content is in smash 4 in some form to play ball for it to happen.

"There's no evidence of such a thing happening."

Always be prepared to quickly eat your words when using this sort of dialog.

 

[Bazkip]

Everybody's clamouring for codes or bragging about having the demo, and I'm just sitting here without a 3DS.

Somebody give me a 3DS and a code.

 

[Vashimus]

I'll give you a GPS and a Coke.

This is true, but I'm merely saying that this has(and will) be the excuse used within those forums to argue for their favorite character being playable eventually, no matter how acute the chance. r/smashbros is already circle-jerking to a filesize discrepancy of some sort. I honestly don't see DLC happening, and if it does, my guess is that some cut characters from brawl (except snake) would make a return.

at first i thought i would happy if they added back ICs, but then they nerfed regrabbing instead of designing characters with chaingrabs in mind, so idc anymore

The fact that sakurai had to put a universal time limit on regrabbing instead of working it into each character's grab/throw scheme really shows his incompetence when it comes to anything more than a basic level of gameplay. Granted it's also easier, but he's got a big team of devs to work with, how much more complicated can it be to tell them "ok guys don't give any characters any throws that are simultaneously low base knockback, low knockback growth, close release point, and quick to end"? Literally any grab that doesn't have all four of those almost certainly won't have any heavily abusable chain grabs. And even then if you work with the right knockback angles you can still make a throw that won't chain. All of this assuming you think chain grabs are a bad thing.

My brother got a code from a friend nvm lel

 

[CORY]

if you're hankering for smash4, but don't have access to the demo, you can just watch the dfw people play, prepping for their invitational tourney tomorrow: http://tinyurl.com/TwitchDentiSSB

 

[standardtoaster]

will leak 4 code

 

[VinceX]

I'm looking at all those people scrambling and struggling to get their hands on the early demo of Smash 4. Meanwhile, here I am, patiently waiting for the 19th without feeling any pressure.
Am I alone in this situation? (Certainly not, but hey, just want to be sure)

 

[CORY]

i don't even care about playing the game. it's not terrible to watch, but i just saw a team game go 6.5 minutes, without a lot of camping on either side. i dunno...

 

[Soft Serve]

How do I find out who I wanna main in ultra dammit
All I know is, I don't wanna be a charge character.

I've been playing so much ultra the last few days because I finally got a pad cheap (had to sell my stick for gas money to get to summer school all summer >.>)
I went into it planing on maining Yang but I fell in love with Abel. Oh my god abel is fun.
I would play charge characters but I struggle so much with the ultras and supers. I really enjoy charge moves (expecially using negative release and stuff like that) but I can't do charge ultras >.>
Play someone cool like Hugo or Gen or Poison or Oni or Abel

Or be an asshole and not play the game and main el-fuerte

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

 

[shairn]

Downloading the demo
I can't help but be disappointed I'm not interested in any of the available characters, but oh well

EDIT: Oh my god smash 4 feels amazing and not brawl hnggh

 

[standardtoaster]

Everything that Brawl and Smash 4 do that messes with stuff just goes and makes Melee's design glimmer as well thought-out as it was, though you do need new mechanics and new things to be explored which can overall make the game cooler otherwise no one would have thought of B-reverse/reverse B-reverse and well not exactly purposely designed but DACUS and stuff (and well, overall improvements that Brawl did with making running Up-smash with C-stick easier and fixing SH to check the last frame possible, and Air dodge now allowable through IASA)

Oooh Skullgirls, I love that movie.

I understand Mike Z really likes long combos, but at least give us an actual burst or combo breaker, not this "Infinite Prevention System" crap.

I can't fathom the mindset some friends who play that really do just love spending hours getting their minute long combos down.Yada yada the combos are too long in certain fighters discussion again, but I think the mindset itself of players who love games that rely on that could be discussed. Mango was already discussing how much grinding Melee requires, but you're hope for games like these is that it'll never over-take the other aspects.

I just want something to get used to a traditional fighter, as the folks at my school vgclub want the occasional non-project M tourney and I don't want be the third wheel on the hype-cycle.

You can fall slightly in love with Third Strike, only to realize it's the Melee of fighting/SF games that wasn't as lucky as Melee to conquer out the Brawl-ish version (SF4), and that you'll be repeating this sentence to people yourself until they grow weary.

i'm surprised pity final smashes returned. from the tips screen:

"Easy Final smash
Fighters who are really lagging behind will sometimes be ready to use a Final Smash as soon as they return from being KO'd."

 

[SpiderMad]

Only with items on right? Why's that a surprise?

 

[shairn]

I'm really glad they included the option to play for glory

 

[Haloedhero]

Lol toaster are you hitting fans up for codes? For shame.

...

Anyone got a code?

 

[CORY]

should've been reskinned bf's and fd's, not just all fd all the time ;x

 

[standardtoaster]

"Shieldstun Shuffling

Angling to one side or the other while blocking with your shield will move it very slightly in that direction."

That is the absolute worst and most incorrect name for this ever wtf

 

[MonkUnit]

Anyone have a code to share? I really want to be able to play it with ST without having to wait until next week.

Looks like someone missed their soft landing too much today

I don't see how it's bad, aside from the Shield DI/SDI occurring during Shield(hit)lag rather than the stun after or do shield hits immediately go into Shieldstun? Or wait.. no "it" should refer to your character moving in that direction. Should have said "you", unless they actually do mean Shield angling which I'm guessing they don't.
Shuffling just needs a better word that indicates you do it only when you've got the shield hit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53t9fDzdCyw

Were you under the assumption they were trying to talk about Shield angling? Oh wait..yeah it does look like they mean that, I thought "while blocking" inferred getting hit. No double wait, it does say "Shield stun"... yeah no, it's DEFINITELY Shield SDI/DI

It's talking about shield angling. Shield SDI/ASDI don't even happen during shieldstun, they happen during hitlag on shield.
