The Way YOU think Chars etc should be unlocked

[Amaggad]

i know there have been many threads going about what should be unlocked but i was wondering how the smash comunity thinks characters etc will be unlocked. i think myself that in the story mode there will be a chapter for each character which you help to stop The Subspace Emissary which once you have helped them that character would be unlocked.

what do you guys/gals think ? discuss.

It might have just been me but I hated having to do all those little events in the last one. I hated target smash and the likes. I'm just lame I guess. I like the idea of the Subspace Emissary, you have to find certain characters and help them out to unlock them. Helping them could be like doing an event or something. Doing 1000 odd matches for crappy characters like mewtwo...no no no.

 

[Areyigo]

I like the idea of the story mode, but maybe they decide to use others modes like the VS or maybe...an online mode

 

[FlatSoda]

i think the bar should be raised higher, people left their gcns on idle overnight for mewtwo. they should definitely just raise the previous goals higher, make em harder. nothing too grande.

 

[Blackadder]

I say unlock them like we always do.
Adveture mode, Classic mode, VS. match count, Target tests, ect.

It works, and it's fun.

 

[SmashChu]

It would be cool to unlock a characters(or maybe stage, item ect) by having a certain Power copunt(numbe rof times you've turned on the game). Sure, easy for us, but will be a fun surprise for most. I'd also like to get stuff by doing the Stadiums. Maybe something for a sertain time on race to the finish.

Snake has to be unlocked by the Konami code. There is NO OTHER WAY.

Chances are the way to unlock him is on the back of the box.

 

[SonicMario]

I'm hoping that Sonic should be somehow unlocked with Mario (if Sonic is in of course). It just seems more right to me.

That would be too awesome.

 

[skullkidd]

They should be unlocked like they have in the last two games...it's a no brainer IMO.

 

[smashdragon79]

i think the way you unlock people(a.k.a. chars) is just by doing random stuff. noone will know how to unlock and once they do theyll either post it here or theyll post it on gamefaqs. i hope i find a way to unlock a character. and this time they should make jigs available from the start so we dont have to waste our time unlocking her. btw im a pretty decent jigglypuff player. i know a few good combos. especially against big people like bowser and dk. :D

 

[Pyroloserkid]

I think you should be able to unlock characters/items/stages through EVERY mode, not just Adventure or other single player modes. Through various multiplayer modes as well and "Event Modes" like in Melee would also be an interesting way to unlock characters and the like.

 

[Che_Lab]

They could have one character... that you unlock after playing ___ hours of online gameplay.. i think that would be interesting and influence more people to play online.

No way! Snake should be unlocked after 573 KOs!

Don't get it? Let me explain one of Konami's number enigmas.

Basically in Japanese, 5 is pronounce Ko, 7 is Na and 3 is of course Mi. Ko-Na-Mi! Because of this, Konami likes to put 573 in different games. Like in the high score limit in Gradius is 573,000 or enemies in Castlevania have 573 HP/give 573 EXP.

If Mr. Resetti is in the game, he should be unlocked by resetting while in Smashville. He'll get really angry but instead of just trash talk, gets out of his hole and attacks!

 

[Ash Hol]

Well make it mostly in story modes, certain vs mode things. not like a billion matches, but maybe like, 1000 kos or something less time consuming and pointless

 

[Dylan_Tnga]

Characters should be unlocked in two different ways, meaning two different ways to unlock all the characters.

For the multiplayer nuts, itd be cool if just by playing VS mode and getting a certain number of matches you could unlock all the characters

but at the same time, not everyone is going to play vs mode all the time, so you should be able to unlock people through 1player mode aswell.

Gah, I know unlocking chars ads to the mystery of a new smash game, but its such a pain in the *** id rather they were all availible to begin with.

 

[waffu]

Making story mode the focus on unlocking characters would be cool and give an incentive for seeing the story. Spreading the rest out among other modes would be nice too.

Perhaps even unlocking characters from online ranked matches like Xbox Live achievements could work.

 

[Crystallion]

In Melee, it was a pain unlocking all the characters and stages, especially since I don't even HAVE friends who play SSBM -_-. I wholeheartedly agree with Dylan_Tnga here.

It shouldn't be anything too hard, that's for sure. I mean, 700 VS matches for Mewtwo? A bit exaggerated...this will change if there's online, though. Makes things much easier and is actually fun since you can play with other people and don't even notice anymore how many matches you play, unlocking will be "natural" and comes unexpected a lot more. Btw, I'm at ease now that I know the Adventure mode will add to the 1 player experience, since I can't really play a good multiplayer.

 

[Dylan_Tnga]

I don't think that would be a good idea at all, as not everyone who plays brawl will play it online. I dont think it would work, I think you should be able to unlock everything offline.

That sucks, I hope that when brawl comes out (since itll be new and exciting) that youll have more people to smash with.

 

[Ogre_Deity_Link]

I'd like to see the coins have more use than just for buying trophies. Maybe you could buy characters/items/stages? I dunno, just a suggestion.

Isn't that wat Melee did=??? Anyways, hopefully the story mode in Brawl is awsome, and the level 9 coms are over 1,000 times tronger [it's over 9,000!!!!]. XD

Anyways, you should get Solid Snake by getting stalked by him, and kicking his box he's sneaking in! XD LOL at the story mode...the story mode thus far should be known as "Kirby's return to the GOD TIER!" XD The mode has diffrent paths, and I have a feeling we'll see inspirations from Shigeru Miyamoto, Hideo Kojima, and many other gaming geniuses in Brawl. Anyways, I want a indepth story mode with twists and turns. *EPIC*

Dang, you're right, I actually forgot about those without internet access. Oh well, some non-game-changing achievements would still be nice

I like the way games like F-Zero GX did it. Basically, you get tickets from story mode, grand prix or time trial. These tickets could buy from a pre-existing pool of machines/drivers, items, or parts. Though you'd still unlock new drivers, parts and items which would appear in the shop. It's the best of both worlds in my opinion and I agree it would fit nicely with the coins from Melee.

 

[OnyxVulpine]

Single player can unlock all of them. But alternatively you an play a crap load of Vs/online vs games.

I think it would be fair that way.

-Onyx

 

[ksadkiller]

i dont think they should have the 70 hours of total time bull**** to be a way to unlock it should just be like, in story mode however it goes, the more u progress the characters u get, and then they should have other stuff too for target tests. just nothing with time. honestly, no one wants to wait 70 hours for mewtwo. id rather KO lvl 1 ness 70 times

-Onyx

Cool, we think alike

I think either or would be a good way. There should be a way to unlock all the characters in vs mode by playing a certain # of matches (thats not hard for people who smash all the time and have like 10 000 matches on their cube)

but for ppl who dont play with others all the time, its only fair they get to unlock all the characters in 1p mode. Or at least most of them.

no one wants to wait 70 hours for mewtwo

Ahh mewtwo sucks though. 70 hours isnt THAT bad but I think 50 would have been more reasonable.

I dunno, I just played vs mode a lot when I first played melee with Demon_MachinE and we unlocked all the characters in a week or so, and all the stages.

The event matches were too easy in melee... id like to see some challenging event matches in brawl , if they make a comeback

As for Snake..
Who are the Patriots?

Don't forget:

What's more useful in Battle? A Knife, or Gun? Because, "you see in combat, often a knife can be more useful, then a gun!" That line always cracks me up, especially when you hear a impression of it!

 

[lcampoy8]

i hope there are characters that you can only unlock online like winning a certain amount of battles but it will suck for those who don't have wi-fi

 

[King_cobra3600]

I'm hoping that Sonic should be somehow unlocked with Mario (if Sonic is in of course). It just seems more right to me.

sonic should be unlocked by using mario in the SUBSPACE EMMISARY.
that is an idea.
