Apex has decided to side with corporate instead of consumer. They don't care about us. They don't care about the players or the fans, only their own paycheck. We must all boycott this tournament and make it clear none of us will watch or participate until Project M is reinstated. As apology, Brawl must forever be removed from the tournament, Project M can take its place.

We have to make our voices heard. Don't let them push us around

>Suddenly they tell PM players to fuck off because Nintendo is suddenly involved

It's not like I'm whining that it's not at Evo or anything. But Apex promised us PM and now it's like they're selling out. Nintendo can just decide what and what doesn't play at Apex if they throw enough money at the tournament organizers.

>>272323765
yep. it'll stop in a year.

Push for PM at evo2k15 if you want it that bad

I don't think excluding the game from Apex is the right move, but of course Smash 4 needs that little push right now. Nintendo wants to help the scene happen so Melee and PM aren't the only ones people play forever.

Alright, I can see where Nintendo's coming from. They can't acknowledge that Project M exists because of copyright nightmares; especially considering the fact that the modders are editing Snake and Sonic, who they don't have the rights to anymore (well, Sonic's in there, but you know what I mean). They can't say "We support a game that requires you to hack your Wii/do some files stuff on the PC in order to work."

It's alright, we've got dozens of other tourneys that they can take place at.

>muh mod made by TRUE FANS

>>272324549
At least PM actually gives alts to most characters rather than Smash 4 just giving them to a few, and making the alts of Sakurai's favorite characters full blown character slots. Surely it would've been easy for Nintendo to give everyone alts, but
>muh character identity

I really don't get why Nintendo fans on /v/ hate fan projects so much. Only reason I can see is that they see every Nintendo game series as so perfect that they see mods or fangames as an insult to Nintendo's game devs. At least Metroidfags are so desperate for games that they aren't shitting on the M2 fan remake.

PM 3.5 really makes me wish that Sakurai didn't waste dev time on stupid shit like Smash Run and Tour and just gave us even more options in Smash mode. Surely as an actual dev he could come up with even more creative and fun things than AllStar Versus and stock/boundless Stamina. 8 Player Smash looks fun as fuck, but it looks like pretty much the only brand new thing when it comes to the main mode of the game.

>>272324001
I don't think they'll stop, sponsorship only costs a bit and they can stop streaming of their games (Brawl, PM or whatever) whenever they want since it's Nintendo property.

They don't have to say they support it. They can just not say anything.

>>272325868
What PM brings new to the table?
This stamina mode without borders looks interesting, but very weird too. It really shows how the game is just a mode.
Is there anything else?

>>272325868
all star versus is in the game technically, just in the smash tour mode.

>>272326530
All Star Verses
Basically, you choose more than one character before the match, and then during the game each stock switches between the characters you chose. It's really neat.

>>272324001
lol Nintendo sponsors Evo too. PM has no place to go.

>>272326530
You have stamina with stocks as well as the option to play with/without boundaries and with/without increasing knockback. It also added All-Star Versus, where you can assign a different character to each of your stocks. It also has some more minor things like adding a new item that allows any move to combo into another for a short time, and gives each of PT's Pokemon a unique FS. Link can also play his ocarina as a secret taunt.

>>272324328
I think PMfags are the salty ones in this case

>>272325085
But about 40% of the alts in PM are garbage. Not to say some like Mewtwo's aren't great but stuff like Lucario's is just awful and a waste of effort. In fact that is how I feel the development of PM has gone wrong. They just throw all the shit they can think of in so it becomes less focused. They have some good ideas but making every character have moves to counter every other character's moves just isn't good balancing.

>>272326768
I belive Smash Tour brings something along those lines too to the core gameplay.
While on the board you collect trophies and fighters. Trophies give you effects, like "starting the battle with X item" or stuff like that, and fighters are just that.
When players clash in the map, everyone must fight and every fighter you've collect represents a different stock. So if you collected, say, Fox, Luigi and Mac, you will start with Fox and get Luigi when you die, then Mac.

I guess Master and Crazy orders are also different since they bring specific rules into matches.

>fighting games
woah, is it 1990 again? Are arcades still a thing?

>>272326495
Funding an event that includes PM means they support it, whether they actually say it or not.

>>272326929
It's certainly not without issue, but it's good enough to be fun for me, just like even though Smash 4 has many of the same issues Brawl did, it fixed them to a degree that it's fun again.

Fucking this, I want to play Smash not Final Destination no items Fox only. It is a party fighting game not a hardcore fighting game.

>>272327245
They do, about as much as the idiot casual elitists. Both sides are hilariously stupid and it's fun to mock them.

>>272327349
I thought the Smash 4 defenders said that all the clones could be made in just a couple hours.

As far as mods go, Project M is a pretty good one.

>looks like Brawl and has Melee gameplay

This is the most important fact, since so many people like Melee better than Brawl.

>adds old characters, tons of alts, rebuild stages

This is all pretty good too.
I'm also sure that they had to mess up pretty deeply with the game to alter it so much, but honestly, this is still just a mod with a nice comp scene going. It's far from being as important as a real, maingame Smash game like Smash 4 is.
A new Smash only comes out once every 6 or 7 years, so it's important that Smash 4 gets some spotlights. Specially when it feels so good to play.
I like the scene 3DS has already, but I'm hoping that the Wii U one is even bigger.

Salud jani!

>>272327675

Then why not just play melee?

I don't get it. With literally any other game, even other Nintendo game, /v/ is super critical and skeptical of new entries. But when it comes to Smash, people will happily jump on the newest entry and believe the company at their word when they say it's the best one yet, and shit on anyone who dares criticize it. It's really bizarre, Smash Bros fans are the least demanding on /v/ when it comes to gameplay.

>>272327935
and melee is at apex problem solved

>>272327935
Melee is 13 years old, man. You can only play a fighting game with 25 fighters so much.
What people don't get is that this userbase that hates Brawl and loves Melee is very little. Hell, even saying that it reaches 100k is streching it a little bit.
Meanwhile the real Smash games have a much bigger fanbase of millions upon millions. It's only nautral that Nintendo tries to stir up a comp scene with so much potential.

>>272323913
>selling out
It's an unofficial mod. How many unofficial mods do you have in the fighting industry? Why not... simply play the real games? Play Melee, play Brawl and play Smash U.

Why do you need Project M, when it's not a real game? You like the Project M guys? Ask them to make a real game. Make them do a real "Smash clone" and publish it. Hell, I'm sure Sony would LOVE to have a Smash clone that worked.

>>272328123
They fixed everything wrong with the game before it, I don't see whats the problem here. And people still enjoyed brawl until they realized Melee was funner.

>>272327935
Some people actually expect sequels to improve on a game in a way other than "we put in more things". Recent Smash games have been kind of disappointing, even purely from a casual perspective. Brawl in particular really lacked the energy that 64 and Melee did. Hopefully Smash 4 will recapture that when I'll be able to play it when I can actually couch it and not just play For Lag and For Little Mac SDs.

>playing any non-MOBA game competitively

People are surprised by this? P:M only survived because it was the "newest" Smash and Nintendo was ignoring it. Now that Smash 4 is out it's irrelevant. If Smash 4 turns out to be completely "uncompetitive" (even though Brawl supposedly had that label its scene still lasted for years), then people will just move back to Melee.

Expecting a fan mod to become top dog is hubris by the devs and delusion by the fans. The most they can hope for is that in five years the Wii U will have homebrew.

Because mods are often more fun than the base game. Brawl is basically the Skyrim of Smash games, only in this case mods like PM and Brawl Minus can actually make it fun instead of a mediocre porn gmae.

Kind of easy when you intentionally fuck up the previous game with shit like losing control of your character at complete random.

>>272328481
I disagree. If Smash 4 proves uncompetitive and Melee's metagame starts to stagnate, people will naturally move onto the developing game.

>>272328123

There were plenty of criticisms of Brawl and there's been plenty of criticisms of 4. Most people just aren't eager to cling to a 13 year old game or a pandering fan mod.

>>272328614
It's also an unauthorized product that is against Nintendo TOS and copyright laws if I'm not mistaken.

>>272328481
>Now that Smash 4 is out it's irrelevant
The playerbase for Melee/PM and Brawl/Smash 4 has barely any overlap, the popularity of one side won't really affect the other

As far as I'm concerned, it was a good a mod made to do something about Brawl's INSANELY terrible design choices.

But there is a Smash 4 out now with Nintendo's support. There's no need for the mod anymore except for archival reasons.

That being said I do think it's pretty fucking lame that thy're not even allowed to side tournament it, that's uncool.

They might still eat the shit up, but at least I see pokemon fans bitch to some extent when GF removes features for no reason other than laziness. Smashfags won't take any criticism of Sakurai unless it's over their favorite character getting in.

>>272328634
I guess it's against the rules to talk shit about Project M now.

>>272328739
If Smash 4 proves uncompetitive and Melee's metagame starts to stagnate then Melee fans will stop playing Smash Bros.

nigga you could play Melee until the end of time even with just the 14 characters in A and S, the mechanics are just that solid. the occasional wacky shit like Amsa's Yoshi and DJNintendo's Bowser are just enjoyable for laughs every now and then.

Hell, even with just the S tier - Fox, Falco, Sheik, Marth, Jiggs, Peach, Cap and ICs- you've got a massive spread of playstyles and attributes, that's why people still play Melee despite how hard it is to be a low tier hero

also they tend to be invasive on other fanbases with their bullshit and hype and *shit on anything that isn't approved by Nintendo or made by Nintendo themselves

(* = this isn't exclusive to Smash fans [Mother elitists, Mario fans, etc.])

>>272330369
At least Capcom actually gives a shit about their community. Nintendo is just giving the minimum support for the sake of advertising. If they actually gave a shit about these tourneys, they would've made sure it was actually thought of in the game design.

>>272330315
>Just wait for the updates and patchs
Then why complain? about a more balanced game?

The fact that it is a mod means I should not have any expectations of it ever making it into events least alone main ones. P:M being at Apex last was surprising but I can't say anything against this decision.

I like P:M alot. And despite playing it mostly with 4 folks on Free for All with items, it is a really impressive mod not just with the weird physic changes.

I don't get the hate from the casuals for it though. Because the majority of the userbase are fags? Well ok,but we've been dealing with Meleefags (and still are) for some time now. Someone told them if they didn't like Brawl, make their own game. And they did. I actually kind of like it over Brawl now. Here's the even crazier thing, I think I'm going to enjoy this alongside Smash 4 as well.

>>272330469
>Yeah I guess all those people playing and enjoying Smash 4 right now aren't real fans.
By /v/ standards, no, a lot of them aren't. Just like nobody would call Wii Sports players big fans.

>>272330430
Well that depends on how long PM will stick around. It's definitely going to last at least another year or two and is already slated for a bunch of big tournaments besides Apex but its status as a mod will prevent if from being at any large official events like MLG and EVO and it'll probably die out shortly thereafter.

>>272330861
They legally can't C&D it because of a label they put on the back of the Brawl case saying it accepts custom SD card content. Since Project M is loaded through the SD card, it technically counts as custom content unless it is loaded from a modded brawl ISO or emulator.

>>272331751
Just for PM. Nintendo wants absolutely no presence of the community made mod so that Smash4 has it's fair shot.

It's not asking that much I think. It's not the last we'll see of PM at tournaments UNLESS by some chance Smash4 becomes the holy savior of Smash that can somehow be played as competitively as PM can.

I mean odds are pretty low but it could happen.

>legitimacy

this is the community that persisted for 14 years without so much as a nod from Nintendo. in fact they're only interaction with NoA was to butt heads over the Evo ruleset and the braindead decision to prevent Melee from headlining Evo 2013. if anything, being in Nintendo's pocket is an indicator of duplicity and selling out in the eyes of fans

he must use xsplit to stream said tournament and must stream it on twitch, so he is already willing to limit himself and sell out are you fucking retarded, its a smash only tournament if nintendo decides to back it he will say yes as he is already willing to sell out man smash fags are the worst kind of retard

it is still selling out and proves he will suck nintendos dick

Accepting a sponsorship from a company to pull a game from your scene and accepting a sponsorship from a company that just requries running advertisements are two completely different things.

its ok. EVO will pick up project m for main stage

the only reason he hasn't had nintendo dick is that nintendo hasn't even bothered to give him the oppertunity to suck it, as soon as he gets that offer PM is gone

>>272332079
Why does Nintendo want Smash on the competitive scene?

Hear me out, MK, Tekken and such get played and all you hear is shit like "If it isn't made by SNK or Capcom, it is not a fighter".

After the sperglords that participated in the smash tournaments, why would any company like their game to be advertised by sweaty, greasy swamp things? The competitive core talks shit about smash, autists who want it to be competitive talk shit about smash not being like PM, and you pissed off a lot of people that granted were not going to play smash4 to begin with but it does damage your corporate image.

Just let tourneyfags run their shitty game. They are going to get laughed out of the fighting scene naturally over time. There is a good reaosn why melee was absent for a good amount of time.

>>272333915

>>272333509
Why the fuck would Nintendo piss off a significant chunk of the fanbase they're trying to cater to rather than let the new game become popular by its own merits? For that matter, why are they even scared of a mod in the first place? Surely their new product is good enough that it'll stand as a competitively viable product and not just a slightly polished remake of a game those people hated and that they expect people to move onto just because it's new.

Why is this a thing?
Why must Project M fans act like children over such a mod not appearing?

If there's so many of you that want to play it then go create your own tournament(s) exclusively for mods.

That's the problem though.

>>272333403
Yes you do.

You see DotA all the time, anon. Along with CS.

>If Project M becomes too popular, nobody will bother to play or buy Smash 4

there is not a possible universe where this could happen. even if Project M was getting 500k viewers on Evo mainstage, millions would still be Smash 4, in fact it would probably help sales by pushing out the Smash brand

>>272334852
And to put it in more general terms
>There's a small part of the community that starts shit and can't accept the fact that Nintendo was a lighting in a bottle type of company, in term of quality. It's unique and will never happen again.
They had a good run in the 20th century, at least.

There's no need to start more shit, Anon.

You heard it here first people. Blizzard to C&D DotA 2 once HotS comes out due to competition.

>>272334551
Both are casual faggots that can't learn new games and just stick to a single game while slandering everything else. It's exactly like dealing with STfags that bitched and moaned about SF3 and 4 when those games came out.

>>272334852
>It's unique and will never happen again
And whenever those people point out that fact they get a storm of HURR WHY DON'T YOU MOVE ON JUST ADAPT :')

>>272334593
Is the banana move not banned? Doesn't that count as an item?

People did adapt to Brawl though. Problem is that Brawl was shallow as fuck and had one character that dominated everything.

>>272335168
>Is the banana move not banned
Why the fuck would it be?

No one took your precious mod away. You can still play it right now, hell you can watch Xanadu streams till the end of time if you want. It simply has no place in officially sponsored tournaments, live with it m8.

>>272334923
I don't see why PM can't kill the other Smash. Mods can gain traction and become hugely popular. It happens on PC with the likes of CS and DOTA.

That is pretty fucked up. It's kinda shitty timing too to have a new build of Project M in the same week as Smash 4.

>>272335043
it's the baby's not wanting to play ball with nintendo. Watch as nintendo does a S&D on them.

>>272335189
>ends up being hype as fuck
Pretty much zero chance of this, have you even seen the Invitational or any of the post-launch official tourneys? They're awful. Timeouts galore.

>Project M faggots getting BTFO

shit this makes up for not getting a 60 dollar Wii U today

no it doesn't but fuck it made me smile anyway

>>272335270
I dunno, I thought tourneyfags hated items/outside influences

>>272335168
What? That'd be like banning Peach's turnips or ROB's top.

>>272334338
PM has its own tournaments. It's the main event at any Tourney Locator run tournament.

PMfags are mad because Strife actually promised that PM would be a mainstage event this year. People had flights booked already. Their fault for trusting that faggot, though. I hope he quits for real, but he won't. Just like every year.

>>272335392
Well, at least you don't have a nogaems box. You'd get bored of Brawl 2 in a month again anyway.

>>272335189

show me a hype Sm4sh match and I might believe this is possible

>>272334593
why would they not play in final destination?

>>272335304
Well it already killed brawl

>>272335474
You're a fucking idiot

>>272335496
>You'd get bored of Brawl 2 in a month again anyway.
Such is the Smash Bros cycle.

>>272335168
Nah, only Nintendo bans you for that kind of thing.

>>272335474
It's not an outside influence if it's a special move you can use on command, Peach can pull bombs and beam swords out of her ass and that move isn't banned either.

>>272335385
I have friends that are like 'How can you SAY that smash 4 is boring? There haven't even been any tourneys yet' while I've watched a bunch of tourneys and they've seen jack shit except the invitational.

Smash 4 is alright to play, but holy fuck is it boring to watch and a bad competitive game.

>>272335385
>Timesout galore
Maybe when the the game first came out

>>272335478
Yea, why don't they do that too? Any sort of outside items are for casuals right?

>>272335392
Project M faggots seem to be doing a pretty good job of deflecting arguments in this thread, but you don't actually care about that. You're just here to shitpost.

>>272335682
Those aren't outside items, silly.

>>272335641
I am confused by smash tourney mentality. The whole idea is to remove any sort of items and ban stages, so why not ban moves and go full on faggot?

>>272335474
It's not an outside influence if its part of the character's moveset.

>>272335682
I get it, you're merely pretending to be retarded.

No, Melee killed Brawl. PM was its replacement.

I don't think we're reading the same thread, Anon.

>>272335480

>Alex Strife will never bow out of the scene gracefully

every fucking year he causes shit because he loves the attention. What a horrible TO, honestly it's disgraceful that people still see Apex as the premier smash tourney when vgbootcamp, tl and MioM run circles around that shitshow on a weekly basis and Juggleguy manages to run TBH4 with over 700 entrants in two days without a single hitch

>>272335043

There's no way it could be any more boring than fucking Killer Instinct.

Will they be accepting custom B moves or is the community still split on it?

And I really hope nintendo doesnt make the ruleset

I'll be honest, I think it's hilarious to see P:M fags cry and that's the only reason I come to these type of threads.

Continue, I am amused

>>272335643
>except the invitational.
Did you watch that same finals I did m8? I mean, not saying that the newer tournaments haven't been shit too, but watching zero out-lame hbox is not my idea of a good time.

>>272335820
Because you're a dumb faggot and don't understand how bans work.

Controlled RNG isn't a bad thing at all. That's why Peach, Game and Watch etc are fine. Items are not controllable at all.

Stage bans are due to either bad stages, or because they enable infinites, infinite stalling etc.

>>272335820
>The whole idea is to remove any sort of items and ban stages
The whole idea is to remove RANDOMLY SPAWNING ITEMS that gave an unreasonable advantage to whoever they spawn closer to and ban stages that result in overly polarizing matchups or retarded strategies. Nobody wants to see someone pick Fox, counterpick Temple, and run away while spamming lasers because most characters can do absolutely nothing against that strategy.

>>272334070
>significant chunk

ayyy

>>272336049
It was awful. I don't have a problem with zoning or laming out, but when that's all a game has it's boring.

And I think they're going to be in for a rude awakening when the Smash 4 tourneys start dropping.

>>272336124
Project M fans don't invade Smash 4 friend code threads to stir up shit. You people do. Go here and ctrl+f Project M. >>272284019

>Nintendo doesn't want an unlicensed modification to one of their games to be played in a televised setting where they are promoting the next game in that series
>people think this is unfair or unreasonable
If there's any chance someone could mistakenly gain the impression that project M is a licensed Nintendo product it could adversely effect the brand.

>>272335904
Yeah I'm pretty much done with APEX.

Was looking to go to a national next year and I'm pretty sure it's gonna be TBH5 over APEX. Juggleguy is kind of an asshole but at least he's no nonsense and has his shit together. Strife is just a worthless faggot.

>>272335859
They did until capcom pulled the cash bonuses from tournaments and dropped the entire project.

>implying people won't hold side tournaments for Project M in their hotel rooms

Like nigga how hard is it to take a wii? I'm thinking about do it to be quite honest. Might try and make some bucks off of it too

no, dumbass. that's not the idea.

the idea is to remove randomness that is outside of player control (Peach chooses to roll the dice on every turnip pull, so it's not out of the player's control), and stages are banned specifically so that specific strategies and moves won't need to be banned due to the fact that they encourage degenerative gameplay like runaway projectile camping or camping by the blast zone at high % fishing for a bthrow kill

put simply : if stages like Termina and Temple were legal, then tourneys would have to ban certain moves and tactics. but when you're playing 1v1 Battlefield no items, even the gayest possible strats are legit, so there's no need to meddle with it any more

I can't fucking wait for all those Smash 4 apologists to shut up and admit that the game probably isn't going to be very interesting at a high level.
