Am I the only person who thinks the speed needs to be slightly increased?

Yeah this game feels like slow motion to me but it's not a bad game, just not enjoyable in an intense match, matches feel dull, I'm just not feeling hype or satisfaction. I want to like the GameI like the way the game feels, doesn't feel slow at all in my opinion.
Maybe it's because I didn't play smash for a year or more but I remember back when brawl was here. After playing hours of melee and then switching to brawl, the game felt like slow motion. However I don't feel this game is like that.
Take a break from smash (all of them) for a couple of days or a week and then come back to it. When you mix it up with other games it tends to do that sometimes. Treat it like a new fresh experience, don't expect it to be like previous titles (it's simply not)Yeah this game feels like slow motion to me but it's not a bad game, just not enjoyable in an intense match, matches feel dull, I'm just not feeling hype or satisfaction.

Perfectly said. I'm really happy with where the game is now and I personally see a lot of my smash time being dedicated to this game more than the others.They claimed they wanted to reach a speed in between Melee and Brawl, and I actually feel like they did it. It isn't as slow and floaty as Brawl, but also not as fast and heavy as Melee. I think they found a great and comfortable midpoint and I'm enjoying it.
I'm not comparing it lol, smash isn't comparable to any other game, I was just meaning in a sense of the level at which I was let down, street fighter iv is a terrible terrible game but notice I said smash 4 is good, just not adrenaline pumping at its current speedI think it reached a nice balance between meelee speed and brawl speed. That's the best it ever got in my opinion -- fast does not equal good. Maybe crayzier to watch, but not necessarily more fun to play. Maybe the competitive scenario for this game won't be as big as meelee's for that reason, but personally I couldn't care less.
Also, I find it unfair to compare smash speed to the usual fighting game genre's speed, since smash also has plataforming elements in it.
Well said,I just don't want the "it's new" goggles on. Just trying to see if anyone else felt the same wayPeople have different tastes.
You can't make someone like Smash 4, and pretending that it is perfect is a bad way to go about things.
Street Fighter IV is far from a terrible game. It's actually pretty brilliant (seeing as SF is the best traditional fighter). Perhaps you'd like to play Street Fighter II: The World Warrior's edition on SNES or worst yet Sega Genesis to see what slow is??I'm not comparing it lol, smash isn't comparable to any other game, I was just meaning in a sense of the level at which I was let down, street fighter iv is a terrible terrible game but notice I said smash 4 is good, just not adrenaline pumping at its current speed
Looking at this, the speed is pretty slow compared to Melee and PM, but it doesn't look too slow like Brawl. I think it's moslty the characters. Greninja looks like a PM character, but Rosalina looks more like Brawl.After watching the japanese tournament that was posted recently I have even less doubts about the game than I did before.
Here's the thread if you're interested.

And characters SHOULD be diverse... not everyone needs to be the Melee-style combo monster. Still, even in someone like Rosalina's case, I don't feel that she's slower than she should be, just slower than others on the roster. Which is fine.Looking at this, the speed is pretty slow compared to Melee and PM, but it doesn't look too slow like Brawl. I think it's moslty the characters.

im glad your happy! street fighter iv vanilla Is terrible compared to third strike, just was a step backwards, and just so you know, I think sf ii is terrible as wellStreet Fighter IV is far from a terrible game.

At any rate, if it's faster than Brawl and has the most balanced mechanics...... it doesn't get any more fun and addicting than that. The game isn't floaty. There's no tripping and it has the best roster with the bodies of Nana & Popo frozen in ice until further notice. My hype has been extreme. then it died down after the leak, but after the JP release and seeing streams of online matches it seems my hype has been higher than it ever was.
So close. I'm not teary, but my eyes feel tingly just ready for it.
I agree. A good mix of character play styles is what makes Smash a good game. I just hope that the differences between attack speeds on characters aren't too different or we could end up getting another Meta Knight. It doesn't look this way so far though, so that is good. As of now I can only judge from what I've seen.And characters SHOULD be diverse... not everyone needs to be the Melee-style combo monster.

own...? ^^;From one Sheik player to another, what in the.....
Little Mac and Sheik are fast in Smash 4. I wouldn't want the game any faster. Animations, movesets and technique + mindgames make for a more fun experience. Not hectic Melee speed (which is still fun) that you can't take in visually to enjoy.
To each their
I know what you mean, and I agree that it doesn't appear that way. They really seem to have achieved a level of balance in this diverse cast that I didn't think was possible; not perfect balance of course, there's no such thing, but very good balance nonetheless. I've watched fast characters overwhelm slower characters, and I've watched those same slower characters use the tools at their disposal to shut down the speedsters. Seems very dependent on player skill, as it should be.I agree. A good mix of character play styles is what makes Smash a good game.

This is an important point.People have different tastes.

Them some fighting words, son!(seeing as SF is the best traditional fighter).
I don't think it'll ever reach Melee speed again. Personally I'm glad, as I like the speed that it is currently at.Looking at this, the speed is pretty slow compared to Melee and PM, but it doesn't look too slow like Brawl.

Why you are so acid?.You asking the wrong place this is brawlboards. The speed isn't too slow it could be a bit faster but at least it is alot faster than brawl.
Then your hate isn't pure. :/Why you are so acid?.
Man, im a brawl hater and i cannot cope with your hate.
OP might be playing against bots, which can make matches slow. I know I'm bored of them.Smash 4 certainly isn't perfect. But I honestly don't think the game's speed is an issue at all. I've played the demo a ton and watched many, many matches, and I've never felt that this game is slow. Run speed is fast. Fast-falling is VERY fast. Even the slower characters can move in and out of attack range with ease. In fact, I'd say the speed of Smash 4 is one of my overall favorite things about it, that and the fact that it seems fairly well-balanced for such a large and diverse cast.
Of course you're allowed to have your own opinion, but I really don't see how anyone could think Smash 4 is slow.
