Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

[Zinith]

Today's Fighter is Samus

"With her Charge Shot, Missile, and Bomb, Samus has three different projectiles to keep her opponents in check from a distance. When fully charged up, her Charge Shot is quite powerful. For her Final Smash, she launches a wide laser beam that can be moved up and down!"

 

[WallyPalmer]

Guys... Why does an ad for ASHLEY Homestore keep showing up on this site for me? Could it be a hint for something?

They're called cookies, love. Google knows all.

I want to know more about my main :ultrobin Does she play any differently from 4? And what's her final smash?

Robin: FASTER PLEASE.

Sakurai please fix my magic twink thanks

 

[Scicky]

Any ideas on if there's anything we already know about that wasn't directly highlighted in the original trailer? I feel like Sakurai might take the time to point out that there's a hazard switch now, but I'm drawing a blank on any other features.

Really I just want a character reveal and for them to highlight some game modes, as much as Smash is a mostly online game for many these days, the fact that this is a switch game makes the single player experience more important than ever.

New modes, some stages, Assist trophies, and as I've been harping on about, showcasing veterans that weren't shown off in the Direct

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Okay, so veteran changes. (yes yes I know. Zinith and his boi...) Obviously the characters who are in the demo build have been talked to death. What characters do you want to see shown off and what changes do you want to see in this Direct?

Here are the remaining characters that weren't in the build:
ultshulk:

: Brawl lasers being brought back, or something that's significantly better than Smash 4 lasers at the very least.

: In his trailer, Pichu stuns Charizard with ftilt, so I want to know if any more moves of his have that property too.

For one, I personally haven't seen Onua say anything about Bayonetta's balance issues. They don't even mention it in the post that you responded to. You are too emotionally involved with your character. It has made you blind to what is right in front of you. And I don't truly care about Bayonetta's balance issues because I actually don't even play Smash 4.

Second, you are getting upset because someone said Ashley should trash Bayo for not being the true witch. This is Super Smash Bros. These characters did not come together to bake pies. Grow a thicker skin.

Or maybeeeeeeee I'll just continue to fight any unnecessary negativity in the fan base and you can make long winded posts in response.

 

[MSmariosonic]

The stages getting highlighted sounds the most plausible.

I guess we will soon find out if Snake's codecs return.

Today's blog update is .

The same day when the first Metroid game get released 32 years ago.

Clever.

Who y'all is? This ain't no place for fighting. Take your Community gifs and salty rants to PMs. Or go behind the Arby's and tug out each others' weaves or w/e. I like my discussions friendly.

Anyways, Samus was a good choice to show off tonight. I've been meaning to look into player her more because I love her armor design and character history. And I'm not a Zero Suit Thot.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I'm not exactly fighting, but whatever. I'm not gonna let someone tell me I'm being silly though when they're in fact being the negative one.

But I'll drop it if he drops it.

 

[Zinith]

I like Samus and love the Metroid series, but I've never gelled with her in Smash and it doesn't look like it's gonna change

 

[MSmariosonic]

Samus is like one of my favorite females in all of fiction

Even counting comics and movies.

Here's my first bingo card ever. I wanted to use the Source Gaming card, because the template on the thread is too small for me. (Don't get me wrong, it is a nice card.)

Every time someone suggests that Dixie should be an echo character instead of a semi-clone -

 

[**Gilgamesh**]

I just want more character deconfirmations so that rampant speculation can die out along with me going to the Sahara Desert with baskets of Salt worth selling. Capitalism ho!

I would rather not have Dixie in the game at all then have her be an echo fighter.

Too small, eh?

Here's a double size one.

I hope they don't just plan on dumping information that could've been on the blog during this direct. You don't need 30 minutes of video presentation just to show off returning stages or items. On the other hand, showcasing how certain gamemodes will work or announcing a demo is definitely better suited to video.

That's most likely it, minus the bit with the demo. The overall presentation in early 2014 gave us our first looks at Smash Run and custom specials, while the 50-Fact extravaganza revealed all kinds of stuff (Smash Tour, strategy-based Classic Mode, 8-Player Smash, Stage Builder). There's going to me more info than just what we know.

 

[T-Hell]

I'm pretty confident game modes will be the main focus of this Direct.

 

[NextChannelGames]

I think we’ll get more info on stages, Items, and game modes for this direct. Though not to much but enough to hold us till an October/November Smash Direct

 

[Zinith]

*ahem*

More veteran changes. I'll keep pointing that out because it's gonna happen

 

[Jetsurge]

Here's my bingo -

 

[Zinith]

Do you think they'll go back to the old Classic Mode or do some weird **** like they did with Smash 4?

 

[osby]

Smash For 3DS has a pretty great Classic Mode in my humble opinion.

 

[Zeox]

12 pages... that's a lot to read... Did you guys already talk about this one? (found it in 4chan):

Bingo Card:

 

[Makai Wars]

My most wanted is in, my second most wanted is in, and any other character I want I'm either not that serious about or consider them NEVER EVER tier. For this direct I'm more excited about who's getting hard deconfirmed than I am about the newcomer. More than anything, I need to see Robin's Final Smash.

 

[Darkraid]

Note that if lolz is right it will also prove veggieben's accuracy since lolz backed him up

 

[Zeox]

In what moment did he back him up? before the E3? after saying that isabelle is also in? or after saying that the new pokemon is controversial?

 

[Deleted member]

Maybe if Simon gets in he can tether the ledge and swing himself upwards like the hooks in SCIV?

 

[Zinith]

I've been asking for a tether recovery for my boi for FOREVER!!!

 

[Wambo]

I've got a bad feeling about this direct. I feel like Steve is the big newcomer, which is a shame, because I'd much rather have Banjo-Kazooie.

Then you have good taste! Well, you are a Yoshi so I'm sure a lot of things are tasty for you.

pls no I dont wanna die this early in my life from disappointment lol

 

[DarkFalcon]

If Steve of all characters were revealed AND who I want was confirmed as an assist trophy I would enter some weird zen mode and convince myself this reality isn't real.

 

[Cosmic77]

Honestly, I'm more interested in the disconfirmations. I want Sakurai to rip-off the bandage and tell us who won't be in Smash just so we can avoid holding out for popular characters until December 7th only to be disappointed.

Every stage in Smash history would be pretty insane and hype.
