French leaks or fake leaks aside, what would be the internet’s reaction if we got Fortnite content? Specifically, a stage?

I think a stage would be generic and terrible. Now if we got dancing taunts, maybe it could be worked out.

Hi, moderator of jeuxvideo.com here !

First of all, when I asked if Dukeofdeath5 was from Nintendo, it's not because I had something to hide. I would just have redirected him to an administrator as something that sensible should be done by them. And I have to admit that I was a bit afraid of a lawsuit.

As I said, there is no way to confirm wether or not this is a fake except by asking an administrator. And I'm not sure they are allowed to disclose it. But as my coworker (and friend) pointed out, a fake leak was organized a few weeks before and even if there is no way to be sure it is this one, I'm gonna say it is fake. The author was just lucky I guess.

I think someone talked about the URL earlier, but frankly the system used by the website is completely erratic so maybe it is not the right direction to look at. But the "42" means it was posted on the "18-25" forum so this part seems to check out.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask, I'm gonna refresh the page for half an hour and then go to bed. Sorry for my poor english !

Actual question. If you can answer, why do you think the leak is fake? The poster got every one of his verified "predictions" right if the post hasn't been tampered with.

 

[Pyra]

I am going to be honest here.

How do you guys fall for this crap?

Shhh, let them.
It's a defense mechanism against having to wait a few more months for the game.
The more they fall for leaks, the more they simulate news for themselves that carries them into nirvana...

Or uh... I guess when the game comes out or something.

 

[Kveldssang]

"KirikRung either don't know what she's talking about or don't want people to know about this leak (it was deleted few minutes/hours after it was bumped today) "

Definitely not, we're being totally honest with you. As benevolents, we actually don't really care about what happens to jeuxvideo.com... We just talked on Discord and I can assure you he's not trying to hide anything.

(I know I told about a lawsuit but that was obviously a joke)

 

[MrSmashFour]

So just to clarify:
Is random "characters" referring to fighters or letters/symbols?

That's the mod, not the admin. But it was definitely just keystroke. Fighters would have made perfect sense (despite what P1ZZ4CHU says) but the admin did a follow-up message in which she clarified that the original post had nothing to do with the one that we saw, so it must have just been random letters.

Is Dixie kong going to be in smash?

Why are you asking the moderator on the site where it was posted this question?

Thank you for this and you did pretty good

I will keep this leak at the back of my mind just Incase it’s not lucky guess’s

But I always assume leaks are fake until proven otherwise

 

[Heracr055]

The leak is NOT dead, the post is confirmed real, and it's also confirmed you can't edit posts after 10 minutes.

The responses are real and confirmed.

WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT??!?!??

It's posts like these that make this thread feel like a joke. Which is too bad because there's still other cool stuff to discuss about the new game without going into "leak" fights.

Ok, thanks.
I started skimming a bit to catch up and missed that part since the argument seemed to still be going

I'm on side of fake leak then. That ambiguity was the last thing keeping me on fence.

 

[Kveldssang]

"Actual question. If you can answer, why do you think the leak is fake? The poster got every one of his verified "predictions" right if the post hasn't been tampered with. "

I'm telling this is fake because it is highly unlikely, because some people told about creating a fake leak a few days earlier, and because we can't know if the post has been tampered with. The admins will have the last word I guess !

 

[Zathura]

Anything fortnite related in smash would be absolutely horrific. It just doesn’t belong anywhere near it. I don’t even mind the game, it can be kinda fun, but please no

If you want to change the topic throw something out there. Don't just complain.

Hoo boy suddenly I want Fortnite content in smash

 

[Venus of the Desert Bloom]

In all seriousness, I haven't played Fortnite at all, so I have no clue how a stage would look or play. I do like big stages for casual matches though, and if it was a big stage, I'd be all for it.

The fandom as a whole would probably throw a fit.

Not a fan of of it but perhaps a stage might be interesting. It’s immensly popular in Japan, especially for the late elementary to junior high group. Probably high school as well.

 

[ZenythSmash]

tried my best on finding a cache or archive of that page -> http://jeuxvideo.com/forums/42-51-57301851-1-0-1-0-je-leak-le-prochain-smash-bros.htm
no success

My question is:

Would Black Shadow 'work' as a Falcon Echo?



Hear me out here:


I imagine that the thought process behind choosing Black Shadow would be to replicate what Ganondorf used to be pre-sword, since the 'old' Ganondorf is now gone basically.


So would he be a Falcon Echo that plays like Melee-Falcon, thus making him slower, which would be a first for an Echo;


Or would he be a Ganondorf Echo with different A moves?

personally imagine a Black Shadow echo to be Falcon but with left overs from pre-Ultimate Ganondorf's functions and customs and some aesthetic changes to fit his character
and looking at some mods, it seems his original GX model structure would do pretty well with Falcon instead of Ganondorf , imo.

It was a conspiracy theory anyway But just to be sure, can you confirm it was an organised leak?

C'était une théorie conspirationiste de toute façon Juste pour être certain, peux-tu nous confirmer que c'était bel et bien un 'fake leak' organisé?

Let's debate the validity of Loz and Verge.

Round 50

FIGHT!

 

[Deleted member]

I'd love any sort of Fortnite content and a pickaxe fighter alongside some building would be really fun.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Let's debate the validity of Loz and Verge.

Round 50

FIGHT!

Both have their pros and cons. That's it. There's nothing more to discuss.

Next.

You don't need to traduce your posts, I do speak english though not very fluently

But no, there is no way to be 100% sure before an admin checks it.

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

You know looking back now I may have misunderstood what they meant by random characters.....

This thread has always been a joke, and I love it for that.

Also is that a mixture of Jay and Rich? You sick *******?

 

[MojoRobo]

French leaks or fake leaks aside, what would be the internet’s reaction if we got Fortnite content? Specifically, a stage?

I'd be totally up for it. I also want every character to get a 4th taunt that's one of the various Fortnite emotes so I can see Captain Falcon do an infinite dab and see Shulk do orange justice.

Thx. Last question, is there a way to edit posts on jeuxvideos.com weeks after the original post was made?

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

The lesson of the day is; generals are garbage, no matter which corner of the Internet you're at.

Sony hates crossplay for it anyway, so I think that'll kill negotiations for Smash.

 

[T-Hell]

Mind to explain?

 

[TeamFlareZakk]

1. God I hope so. Medusa along with Banjo-Kazooie are my most current wants now that K. Rool and Ridley made the cut. We need more female villain reps even if she's an Echo.
2. I think it'd make more sense for Dry Bowser to be a costume for Bowser. They managed to make Meta Ridley work as one for Ridley. He should be no different.

Dry Bowser makes more sense as a echo, because he spits blue fire and would have certain statistics that differ from the og Bowser, I actually could see Dry Bowser mimicing Giga Bowser from Melee with his moveset and having somewhat less strengh, but more speed than og Bowser.

Final Smash would be he turns into Giga Dry Bowser! Hopefully something better than a big lame punch like og Bowser does.

 

[Heracr055]

Okay.

Which characters do you guys feel will play the same as their previous iteration? We can usually derive this from: A) the sum of various trailers which reveal enough of a character's moveset/properties to conclude that, or B) the character was playable in the demo and their properties were determined that way.

By process of elimination we can determine what characters we can expect more of the same from, characters with some new properties, and characters who are still a big question mark.

My biggest interest is the latter, since speculation on their changes can promote a healthy discussion.

Sony doesn't own Fortnite though.

 

[Kveldssang]

"Thx. Last question, is there a way to edit posts on jeuxvideos.com weeks after the original post was made? "

No, you can edit your post up to five minutes after it was posted and that's it.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Yes, but they still are reluctant.

[P1ZZ4CHU]

Yes, but they still are reluctant.

But what does that have to do with Smash?

 

[Deleted member]

Fortnite is just Minecraft
And I don't mean it in the "oh they have similar concepts"
No, I mean that they're insanely popular games that adults on the internet like to **** on because they don't like seeing kids having fun.

Sony hates crossplay for it anyway, so I think that'll kill negotiations for Smash.

Sony owns exactly 0% of Fortnite

 

[Dukeofdeath5]

Mind to explain?

Well I assumed what they meant the og post was just random characters:

a printed or written letter or symbol.

COMPUTING
a symbol representing a letter or number.
synonyms: letter, figure, symbol, sign, mark
"thirty characters per line"

but I think she may have meant random characters:

a person in a novel, play, or movie.
synonyms: persona, role, part;
dramatis personae
"the characters develop throughout the play"

 

[UberMadman]

"Thx. Last question, is there a way to edit posts on jeuxvideos.com weeks after the original post was made? "

No, you can edit your post up to five minutes after it was posted and that's it.

Well, this basically means either it was edited using Inspect Element, or it’s legit. Definitely something to keep in mind. Thank you very much!
