I don't really think people REALLY consider that ragequitting... I think ragequitting is quitting when you still have a chance of winning the match. However, we do use the term for both situations for lack of a better word for it.

BTW you should never ragequit in either sense because I have had 2 tourney matches now where I was in dying animation last stock and the opponent killed himself in the meantime, giving me the win.

nah dude your nana got him

I SEEN'T IT

In that case maybe its an IC player rule. If nana is on the field people try to run away/hit her and they can always mess up.

I just find that them saying "Game Set!" is so satisfying

Fixed that for ya.

 

[Yeroc]

I work hard for my bowser victory screens

and you rob them

for about half a second faster (which i make a LOT slower) to get to the next match

i hate it

i hate it so much

SO MUCH.

Posts like this make me wish there was a Like button on Smashboards.

solution is weight-dependent rage-quit timing for bowser players

 

[TheLake]

So I like sonic

But his Side B and down b

are more confusing to me in this game

then they are in brawl lol

how exactly do they work?

What can I do with them?

AND why doesnt every character have a banjo kazooie related skin yet?

Speaking of Olimar, how is his development going?

Quitting out of matches has always struck me as just bad form. I don't play Bowser, so I don't have the goal of a Bowser win screen like Gimpyfish, but I still feel robbed when someone quits out of a match I've won. The win screen tells the winner, good job, and if they want that, they deserve it. If you're so concerned about time constraints, and you want to end the match faster, then side-b towards the blast zone or whatever.

Look to other fighting games. What it if Zangief started his Ultra animation when you were at just a few pixels of health, and the moment it became clear the hit had connected you quit out. That's exactly what you do when you quit early, and it just doesn't happen in the fgc. Maybe it's because the the fgc has a certain respect for the game they're playing, and in particular that game's win conditions, but I find that to be one of the strengths of the fgc, and a weakness of the smash community.

So I've taken P:M to a Smashfest in Berlin last weekend and most of the people there, including Luma, the supposedly best Peach in germany, had big bulging sacks of fun with it. Everyone transitioned well and found at least one character they instantly adored. Especially Lucario made a big impact, though that may have something to do with the 'genkidama' screams that happend everytime someone neutral a+b'd. Still, the better half of the Player's didn't take it very serious as a competitor to melee for various reasons, the most prominent being the perceived sluggishness that i cannot really relate to apart from shine-shenanigans. All in all though a great success, since i believe in the end we played more P:M than Melee those two days.

Personally I think you guys did an amazing job. I honestly expect that you'll be able to make the final product even more outstanding than this second demo.

We're not going to be talking about characters not in the demo. It's only been a week anyway since it has been released, we've been taking a break. :V

There are people playing P:M in Berlin? =O

 

[Utterrandomness]

There are people playing PM in Scotland! (Me and my friends, all lesser skilled players though)

 

[Izzmo]

Yeah we had 2 setups. One I brought over from Rostock and the other belonged to Chozo/ChoWzer.

I think a solution would be whoever didn't rage-quit gets their victory screen! -_^b

Although I have no clue what coding limitations there might be for knowing which player quit out =P

Actually, this is what Gimpy should do from now one. When his opponent quits, they go back and the opponent SDs four times in a row so Gimpy gets his win screen.

 

[FireBall Stars]

Wow, Harmony of Dissonance's arrangement is really clean, dunno how I missed that when I played through it. Mp3 yoinked

That is actually from Harmony of Despair, not dissonance.

A psn/xbox live only online game.

 

[Bones0]

The simple solution is before Gimpy hits start, he should act out the Bowser win screen irl. Of course this may just lead to more quitting out because who wouldn't want to see that?

Side-B is the good one. Down-B is helpful for techchasing because you can run up, dash cancel, down-B, cancel with shield into a grab or aerial. Even then, side-B is still sometimes better because you can't use down-B out of a dash. You have to break into a full run, which for Sonic, is usually a good third of the stage.

 

[MaxThunder]

hm... it should be possible to make initial dash cancel into down-b... just saying...

 

[Strong Badam]

not in melee

 

[Bones0]

Well they should just make it so holding side-B charges the spin dash, and let you cancel that with shield. Then you turn down-B into a new move (preferably the Bounce Bracelet idea I posted earlier). ^_^

 

[Strong Badam]

play the game assuming that no changes can be made and you'll fair a lot better.
otherwise you'll end up like capcom fanboys

But then I'd be playing vbrawl

I don't mind when someone quits the match before the end when it's clear that they lost (they're in specialfall on their last stock and I'm on standing the stage) because the game is already over at that point, but I don't like when people call it ragequitting, because it's not. Ragequitting is when you quit in the middle of the match when it was still being played, possibly because you just made a dumb mistake or something. Ending the match when you're frames away from dying is just saving time to get to the next match because the results have already been decided.

 

[Project_M_Noob]

Do I need to clear VC games off of my SD card to use the hackless method? I know that I have to get rid of stage data from the Wii and SD card, but can the VC games stay?

 

[Shadic]

You only need to remove stages.

 

[Zanx8]

I don't want to sound like a pain, but what kind of changes/buffs are added to Samus?

 

[Shadic]

She's not in Demo 2.

 

[jalued]

She's not in Demo 2.

I think the general point is: be happy with you has already been released, and help the current metagame rather than spending time speculating

edit: and have faith in what they have done with samus, all the other characters have turned out really well so far (I'm a bit worried about pikachu though, I think axe's current tournament placements had a bit too much influence on their design, but anyway... time will tell)

 

[iLink]

I think zanx was just asking what you guys have done so far in regards to Samus.

Don't be that guy.

Strong bad Can i be your guy?

 

[hotdogturtle]

If you'll notice, ever since the demo came out they've been withholding information about all the other characters. They want us to take a while to discuss and appreciate demo 2 instead of thinking about the full game.

 

[Bones0]

I'm done appreciating Demo 2. Waiting for Demo 3.
