Question about the stages: will the revised version of Rumble Falls from the original demo still be an option? That is one of my favorite stages to play in from any iteration of Smash

 

[hotdogturtle]

Are TOs really gonna choose one or the other? I can imagine some of them (who don't have a personal investment in either version in particular) making them both legal because "hey, they're both neutrals, so why not".

 

[TeiunBomb]

Um, no he definitely doesn't get his second jump back.

If you double jump and side b sweetspot someone, all you can do after that is Up B. He just goes into his normal fall. It does not restore a jump. So if you just do 1 jump (from the ground) and side b sweetspot, then you could jump after the side b.

*shakes head* This is what I meant to say, but what I typed above came out instead. My mistake.

To that I'd say "Well, it IS their tournament." I think most people would see it as an option between the stages. There are already a vast number of stages in PM that could be categorized as "neutral" using Melee criteria. Only choose 5 or 7 for neutrals or whatever is already going to be part of the PM experience. As for counterpicks? This version of Battlefield has improved ledges that don't cause missed grabs like in Melee (at all, to my knowledge), so it's mostly just the size of the stage "wall" that's different, and it's not much. TBH I'd be arguing for it to be included as an optional retexture of Brawl BF, but why not just include a more Melee-exact version alongside it and let people play on whichever one they prefer?

 

[UltiMario]

Honestly if it doesn't bother anyone I don't see why not to use the stage clone engine thing by letting you have Brawl BF, or have Melee BF by holding Z or something while picking it.

Unless after all these years thats STILL unstable and causes crashes.

 

[Giygacoal]

The idea of having to hold a button to access an option hidden from the menu is a really unprofessional design choice. It's baffling that Sakurai's dev team would think to add Sheik and the individual Pokémon on the Brawl CSS, but not Zero Suit Samus.

 

[UltiMario]

I don't think anyone really cared about picking Sheik in Melee either =p

That and people can now grab the ledges backwards in special fall. Id love a melee BF that doesn't screw you sideways.

 

[Anth0ny]

Trying to drum up more support for such an obviously good idea. This is a simple thing to implement (will take about 10 minutes to completely finalize), and if you guys want to see it, let us know.

I support this.

 

[Rikana]

Because we can't force textures upon you guys with demo 2, I'll share my squirtle texture with you guys.

 

[Stevo]

Hoping for another big Demo 2 update post in the next couple days, as I'll be watching hockey like a good canadian boy on wednesday. We are getting pretty close to release!

 

[Ecks]

In my opinion, Mario Circuit is the most boring stage ever. I don't even care if it's competitive or not, it's just trash to me.

My full support for Battlefield over it.

...we should get plenty of good info on thursday

Option? Rumble Falls+ replaces Rumble Falls. And yes, the Rumble Falls+ in Demo 2 will have the extended boundaries/whatever other changes have been made to it since Demo 1.

 

[Oldeeber]

Will u guys include or release an optional melee camera with the demo? Cuz that would be amazing. Im not a huge fan of the camera u guys have set up, no offense.

Yeah, because the reason we haven't implemented Melee's camera is because we're too lazy, not because we have not been able to accurately replicate it.

Cough.

 

[Ecks]

Speaking of Rumble Falls+, was the occasional background flickering on this stage fixed?

Too be fair, PM camera is much better than the default one.

 

[MonkUnit]

RF+ Background has not been fixed, yet. If any of you guys want to try and fix it up, feel free to do so. That's a little less work we have to do later.

Also wanted to thank the person who made that version of YS with the moved trees that are closer to Melee's positions. :D

 

[RaphaelRobo]

Can Wolf still scar, lightstep, and all those other ATs he has in Brawl?

Awesome. I can't wait for Demo 2. I didn't play much of Demo 1 but I reopened it the other day to prep for Demo 2...then my buddy and I played it for over 6 hours...can't wait to see what's changed since.

 

[MonkUnit]

Scar is the thing where you can sideB through the ledge of a stage, right? You can still do that.

I don't know what lightstepping is or other ATs Wolf had in brawl.

 

[phurgawtin]

Can Wolf still do his zero-lag fair, where you fair as soon as possible when you shorthop, and land frames after the move completely finishes? no need for l-cancelling it, just don't fastfall it.

the only reason i could see doing this over shffl'ing it anyways would be to retain some walking momentum.

 

[RaphaelRobo]

Lightstepping was a thing you could do with his sideB where you would appear to bounce off the edge, but regain your second jump, etc.

[kaizo13]

looks fancy

 

[Yeroc]

I doubt Wolf's AutoCancelled (AC) fair is still in. His sh airtime is much lower, and AC windows have been adjusted almost universally.

That looks pretty cool. I can't tell how difficult that is to do though.

 

[JediKnightTemplar]

It's Barlw. Probably not very.

 

[Stunts]

Are you all planning to take out the endless DDD inhale Mine bug?

 

[RaphaelRobo]

It's not too hard. Wolf's probably the easiest character to do it on, though.

 

[Strong Badam]

It was hard to do practically speaking though, in a match that mattered. It's not very important anyhow, as you can just ledgehop

 

[Renji64]

Time to get my brstms ready.

 

[Kink-Link5]

I forgot how amazing Ness's Autocancel frames were in Melee mostly because he's such a terrible character. 'Here's hoping his uair and fair get great frames as well.

Though, Dair has me curious with smash 64 start up. Does it still auto cancel on the frame after its hitbox finishes like in Melee, and I assume, Barlw?

 

[ClinkStryphart]

Time to get my brstms ready.

Same here... I am actually listening to different brstms right now. I need to get a pen and paper and write down some of the ones I like.

I suggest using Notepad++, or even just Notepad. It's a bit easier than paper. Just copy/paste the brstm guide from the music hub and you get a list that's really easy to keep track of.

[Jonny Westside]

Are you guys(the PMBR) gonna give us(the fans) a list of all the available stages prior to the upcoming demo release?

Speaking of stages I noticed on your official site there is a snapshot of Peach's Castle 64 from the original smash bros. game. Will that stage make it in demo 2? Please say yes! lol

 

[TeiunBomb]

Lucky you. I've gotten into the habit of looping nearly all of the .brstms that I use in game, partially because I'm a semi-perfectionist in that I want them to sound just right, and partly because most of my music stems from tracks that I doubt are looped on Brawl Vault (certain OverClocked ReMix tracks, Dwelling of Duels, etc.). I lost nearly all of my custom loops in a hard drive crash, and haven't been motivated to many many since. Almost needless to say, I have quite a bit of work ahead of me.

 

[Stunts]

I love how the trailer has an option for 3D!

You guys are really hitting it big ROFL

[/COLLAPSE]

I have a word document compiling all my custom textures and music just like that. Unfortunately, I have no idea what stages are replacing what with demo 2, so it's tough to know what music should go where

Is the Castlevania stage going to be in demo 2?

 

[9Kplus1]

Luigi's Mansion will never be used, so it's safe to assume that Castlevania will be in.

 

[Ecks]

Dracula's is over Luigi's? I got used to having it over 75m.

Is there anything currently over 75m?
