Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[epicmartin7]

Smash news or not, it is Nintendo news and you can't seem to wait even one extra second to get even the littlest bit of info. I'm curious too but I'm not asking dataminers for information within a couple hours of getting a hint there's anything to see. Would it kill us to not have every possible thing leaked? I think you can't handle this drought, or at least your way of handling is by chasing raindrops, so to speak.

I don't really think I have a problem...

How would you introduce someone who has never played a Nintendo game into Super Smash Bros? Like how would you describe this type of game to someone who isn't as familiar with video games as we are, like our parents, older relatives, co-workers, classmates, teachers or even your boss?

Didn't mean to sound mean btw. I just want you to look some more before you leap, in a manner of speaking. The request within an apology wasn't in the best taste you have to admit.

Spoiler

We know you need it. That's just how you are I guess. You'll always be our raindrop chaser. I just don't want you to watching where you're running.

You really bring the metaphors out of me.

" Its a game where characters fight" is the best way I could say it.

Or " Play it and find out for yourself"

No, your fine . I was just trying to funny on purpose. I realize I'm having a thirst for news wait too much, but being funny is how I roll.

EDIT: So Nikki might datamine it. Although, I doubt she will.

1) Turn on the Game

2) Leave it on the Title Screen

3) Let the Tutorial do a damn good job

Yeah we heard that was an issue with some people. We haven't figured out if it's because we are on the cheapest hosting plan (can't afford anything better right now ) or if it's just a limitation of WordPress or plug-ins messing up. We are trying to figure it out and resolve it.

 

[Z25]

Still, I think it's best we simply let the costumes take their course. I get people want to see them, but I'd rather respect the both the leaker's choice along with the developers and let it be.

Fair enough, but considering they leaked stuff in the past, I wonder why RTB won't do it this time.

I'd probably just get them to watch the original North American Smash 64 commercial.

Well Fallout 4 is considered disappointing to a lot of fans and few SMM costumes were found by RandomTalkingBush but out of respect he won't reveal them


Also, are you gonna let DK go with your wife? Or are you guys doing an reenactment of the original arcade game via a play

 

[CatRaccoonBL]

I got these 3 yokai in the back that just kind of chill there. Not really used

I dunno if I should utilize them more, but the 3 up front seem to be able to take care of stuff

There are two types of leveling up.

Stats level up and move level ups.

Stats level up by exp and a yo-kai doesn't have to even be in battle to gain exp. Just be in your party.

However, their moves only level up if they use that certain move a certain number of times.

So if they use their Soultimate move enough time, it levels up. If they use their Techique a certain amount of times, it levels up. If they use their normal attack a certain amount of times, it levels up.

Which these all mean they have to be in battle to have their attacks get stronger.

Oh yeah, that's a good point

I should switch around more often

The only thing you missed is me surpassing you in terms of like posts! There was a big discussion revolving around making new Gen 1 megas, reviewers, and Fallout 4/ Mario Tennis. That's about the extent of the discussions around here lately.

[Dravidian]

Uh... I said its not for Smash news. I'm just curious about the SMM costumes. I can handle this drought. I still have a lot of other games I'm playing through which can keep me busy. So, please don't really make assumptions. I'm not doing this over Smash Bros, just out of general curiosity.

Well for future reference apologies seem more genuine when you don't ask for stuff right after apologizing.

I mean what would you think if someone punched you in the face and a few days layer said "Sorry for punching you. By the way can I have five bucks? I need to eat."

Spoiler

Personally my first instinct would be to tell them to eat a bag of ****s if they're so hungry, though I'd slightly relent and try to have an open conversation.....I doubt I'd give em five bucks though.

 

[Neo Zero]

Technically...Geno Boost started this round as Burb's original comment wasn't even direct at him. Burb was replying to a comment that was directed at him.

So you guys need to stop picking on him, as he isn't 100% wrong.

Burb could've been less standoffish in his reply, but at this point I think he's just sick if hearing about Geno's "importance", especially when the comment wasn't directed at @Geno Boost .

I'd just like to say it doesn't matter who starts something, if you guys see something ignore it and if you're part of it, take it to a PM.

 

[Burb]

To everyone who made comments about me "going after an old post" or whatever.

I'm not actually here every day. I checked my notifications and saw that someone quoted a post of mine. If someone responds to one of my posts, my immediate reaction is to give a response of my own, especially if the response was argumentative.

"Post age" has never been an issue in the past. I regularly see people respond to hours old posts from several pages prior get dug back up. The nature of my response isn't really relevant. You can't take something that's never been an issue and suddenly decide it is one just because you don't like what could've come from it.

I'd just like to say it doesn't matter who starts something, if you guys see something ignore it and if you're part of it, take it to a PM.

At the same time, it's a bit unfair to explicitly ignore the post that started the whole thing and just go after the person who responded just because they're "the aggressive bad guy".

There's really no excuse for deciding to take action now and not then.

Gen 1s should still be on the table. I don't think we even got 10 gen 1 suggestions. Too many people were busy talking about other silly stuff instead of the actually fun silly stuff of thinking of Mega Pokemon.

Mega Typhlosion

Attack + 50
Speed + 20
Spec + 25
Defense + 5

Types: Fire/ Rock

Ability: Rockelate - Normal type moves become rock attacks

Body becomes like magma with cracks and lava. Flames intensify on body and jut out irratically in animation.

He could if he was type rock

...

I kind of was trying hard to think of a multi typing for him.

Dark might work, but ...eh.

Rock would give him weakness but turning normal type moves to rock would be pretty powerful

A completely accurate Rock Typed Return would be amazing tho

It has come to my attention that the no face glitch in Fallout 4 WAS real and not some shop...

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Oops KenboCalrissian

On the kinda bright side is that it's apparently only on the PC version so... hurray?

So, the version I was going to get because I have neither a PS4 or XBone?

Awesome.

'Sonic Big Head Plush Googling' is one of his recommended searches. Stop.

Also, what was this bet about? I'd totally missed it.

The game automatically gives you one. In fact, I'm not sure you able to find him in the wild until he automatically joins you.

Time for my own take on Mega Ursaring.

Type: Normal
Ability: Guts

Increases Speed and Defense while lowering Special Defense.

Appearance-wise, it becomes much burlier and takes a much less upright stance. Its...fur pauldrons(?)...get much longer fur and its teeth are more apparent. Essentially a bad-news bear to the logical extreme.


Basically it just makes him a better version of his current self which is...already pretty potent. I use Ursaring in my online battles most of the time and it always gets the job done.
