Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

So I got Ultimate, everything is amazing my boys and Woomy are precious :ultincineroar::ultkrool::ultinkling:

One big complaint, For Glory might have been better than what's going on here.

I said I wanted to be in 1-on-1 matches with no teams or anything of the sort.

I got everything but.

Still going through spirits mode which is going to take a while and I unlocked every character.
Try background matchmaking. From my experience, 'quickplay' quite literally means they'll try and find the quickest route to a game, preferred rules be damned. It's only anecdotal, but background matchmaking has been 100% reliable to me so far.

It's not even hours and peoples already found this glitch, mainly from Japanese fans. I'm spoiling it, since it's a inappropriate thing to do, and I hate being a pervert. It's their fault, anyways. I don't want to be warned, anyways.
Apparently, there is a 'way' to remove Peach's... skirt. Ness's forward throw seems to cause this.
There was a problem fetching the tweet
Well, there's no black hole anymore.

I... don't give a ****.
I'd rather just see all the music from the games on the stage, instead of the default SSBU having ONE song be put on VERY OFTEN and everything else at close to zero.
No I like to have a variety of songs to play often on a stage too. But I still want them to match the mood of the stage. I wish there was a Bowser stage to play those songs on.

Path #2:
Challenger Pack #1: Joker
Challenger Pack #2: Tracer
Challenger Pack #3: KOS MOS
Challenger Pack #4: Sora
Challenger Pack #5: Monster Hunter
This pack is like literally one of the best ones I've seen. I'd actually buy this, all other packs would be like a hard pass. I'm against 3Ps but these picks actually fit and make sense imo

Is DK RAP NOT EDITED AGAIN PLEASE TELL ME
No, it's still the butchered version.

Man, these unlock battles are tough...at least some of them. Most I can manage, but Bowser's taken me out four times by now. Also only have one of my mains unlocked, and I'm just now realizing exactly how much of my Link strategy involved the bombs now that I don't really have them anymore...

Still waiting to get my other mains in, though.

I feel Classic isn't gonna be very replayable, but I will probably have a lot of fun with just standard smashes against the CPU since it's actually pretty good now. I'm waiting with WoL until I go off on winter break and then have nearly unlimited time. And also so I can train up and git gud.

Also, to backpedal a little bit, I love it when Lv. 9 CPUs are absolutely merciless. It makes them a lot more interesting to fight, and pitting two of them against each other is hype as hell.

That was the main start for... just about everyone.

I'm not sure about Fortnite Person

Was Fortnite as huge in Japan as it was everywhere else?
That's usually something we should factor in when trying to predict the dlc...

I finally got the game Friday night and played it all ****ing day yesterday and most of today. I already unlocked all of the characters but I didn't beat Spirits mode, which I really lost a lot of motivation for because I already got everyone, but it's still cool.

I'm forced to play with a Joycon because I didn't buy a Pro Controller or GCN Controller. It's alright, but I'm probably going to get one or the other soon.

Current mains are :ultlittlemac::ultsimon::ultridley::ultness:

praying for the rest of the DLC to be 1st party

Highly unlikely, there's at least one 3rd Party I reckon. Smash 4 DLC had like only one first party newcomer, and he was a damn ad. :4corrin:

As for the rest, :4cloud::4ryu::4bayonetta: There were about as half as many :4feroy::4mewtwo::4lucas:

I prefer the one with Geno
Can ya stop disposing my boy every time we play this game, he's still got a shot. Certainly more than ****in..Tracer
I think that there's always a chance for Geno, I don't think that Nintendo wants to put Geno in DLC but if SE have demanded to put Geno in DLC (cause that means money for SE) if they wanted Cloud to get back in Ultimate, that's possible.
Cause SE is very stingy about FF content so if they are like this with their other series, it gives chances for Geno.

But in a different way Geno and Mallow are spirits and I'm thinking that spirits deconfirm characters for the first season pass.

We will see soon, I think that the second DLC will be the SE rep.

That wasn't really the point I was making. My point was that we play the "which DLC pack do you prefer" game often and for whatever reason we've come to the point where I'll see picks like Tracer and 2B over him.

Also I'm pretty sure Nintendo is the one who would've had to convince Squenix to get Geno.

So apparently I really like playing as Chrom, he's fast as hell and has a ton of damage/kill moves. Scared to go offstage, but I like to stay onstage anyway so it isn't all that different. Kellam palette is the best alt btw.

I don't know why Nintendo would like to put Geno. The character aren't enough known and he don't promote a Nintendo franchise.

...his whole thing is that he's a Mario character...he promotes their biggest franchise.
Also, you know what, no, I'm tired of this point. He's known enough and wanted enough to get him a Mii Costume, Spirit, and online icon.

If they're all "unexpected", then that in theory rules out Banjo and Steve.

Ergo,

Hoping that no Zelda character ends up bottom/low tier for once. But man, I wonder how crazy the tier will look when it comes out, based on size and the usual.
