Yeah but there's no online ranking system or a matchmaking system either, its just random. The only for glory part is its competitive ruleset. I just don't see a point in trying so hard for nothing that even mattersIt is called For Glory for a reason
It does have a matchmaking system, you know? It matches you up with people that have similar W/L ratios.
Why not put effort into winning? You're not as likely to win by not trying your best, and people play to win because that's the goal of the game. Winning itself is fun.
I agree with this to some degree. I'm surprised how many people have really poor internet. I feel like half the people I play are sitting in a McDonalds using the free wifi lol. I also feel like these players roll a lot more. Powershielding when someone is making the connection bad is almost impossible. I still don't understand why people would even bother playing 1v1 for glory when they have really poor internet and know it will lag.
Maybe they are sometimes just kids that got the game and don't know how bad their internet is? I know I used to have terribad internet till a few months ago I looked into it more, thinking I wasn't the one causing the lag but found out I was actually given the wrong speeds all this time.
Wow man you must be psychic. How could you possibly know that just because their character has projectiles, they're doing it do beat lag. They don't even know if the match will have lag. Just because a character has projectiles, do you honestly think the player is going to gimp their own character by not using one of its moves? How can you possibly know your opponent's reasoning behind his character?
but dude this is just the baby stages of the online community when the wii u version releases, the online scene will change. as in get more competitive and all those cheap tactics will be obsolete or top tier tactics. and what do you mean force a competitive scene? :0 its a fighting game...and you went to the one on one area. ??????????? why not just do for fun? who cares about lag if you're playing for fun? if you want to get serious, come back to for glory. if REALLY want to get seriously competitive come back to for glory on the wii u. if you don't, play smash mode offline and set your own rules to for glory mode and set the cpu to level 9.....
You can tell if the match will be laggy if the CSS is laggy when you switch costumes on character selection.
It's hard to improve spacing and approaches with the lag that the game has also all maps being Final Destination versions doesn't help the cause because no platforms for helping with spacing and movement.
If most matches are lagging for you, it's probably not the opponent. How often do you have a solid connection match and how does that go for you? Do you still feel the same as when it does lag?
The matches have solid connection, it's not major lag like frames dropping or loading times but more so input lag which I find as a major disadvantage. I do understand that if I have the input lag so does the other player but it's just more difficult to execute combos with input lag.
I think you just need to put in some more time to familiarize yourself with the timing. I have 100 Down / 35 Up alone to myself in my apartment and I never have any lag unless someone else gives me lag. I also have beaten people who spam a lot with ike and DK while it's lagging. I don't seem to mind them spamming at me because I know that I'll outplay them if they continue to do that. You learn their habits, find an opening and punish them hard.
This is pretty much the point of this mode. Even though this is the case, I decided not to take it seriously. I usually bounce from doing 1vs1s to free for alls depending on boredom.
That is interesting. Do we know if we get a 10 minutes ban if we disconnect in the CSS?
You don't get banned. You can leave and rejoin as much as you want if its in the CSS
Tournaments allow a wider range of stages. I'd be much happier with the mode even if it allowed just 2 stages, FD and Battlefield.
Could not find it within myself to take this seriously. As a Link main, I can't really say that I'm playing unfairly, just playing my character extremely well. Nothing wrong with it when my opponent's can't deal. Get the concept of 'playing fair' out of your head and you'll begin getting better right away. Approach something that is 'unfair' with a different tactic and attitude, and just learn how to punish people for their habits.
I just tried what you reported, was switching costumes in CSS just fine but match was very laggy once it began.
