Where did it go so wrong for the Smash series, /v/?

meta knight was so fucking meta

Putting it on 3ds sort of sullied the franchise, butt it is still fine

You could just adapt to the changes instead of whining about them.
Competitive smashfags are the worst.

It is already the most casual fighter on the market, with the most complicated button input being "press forward harder and A".

Complaining about Smash being casualized is like complaining about Mario Kart being casualized. You're not playing Gran Turismo, you're playing go-karts. You're not playing Virtua Fighter, you're playing sock'em boppers.

If you put it like that, yes. But that's polarizing it. You clearly haven't played these games if you think it's not about skill at all.

He's fun to play, I'll give you that, but he's hardly what you would call unbalanced. Even with the slowest fighters like Ganondorf or Ike, I have absolutely no problem punishing and baiting Macs. He's got an unbelievably shitty air game and he's so easy to predict because his moveset is so limited in its viability. His neutral B leaves him open for years and his up-B is practically useless unless you're just RIGHT above him, so make a fucking guess at what he's going to attack you with.

You could fill both these criteria by simply changing the animation such that his attack corresponds with the length of the attack. It's simply laziness that it doesn't.

It's important visual information about your attack.

>>270384360
He's absolutely not though. I'm thrilled when I run into a Little Mac player. It's a free 2-0 every single time. He stomps scrubs because they don't have any concept of punishing or abusing a characters weakness. Just stay near the edge, throw his ass off. Use literally any move in the game to gimp him. You win.

>>270384954
He's so fast that he can litterally feint you forever at no risk and attack when you make a mistake.

He's very polarizing, but not overpowered. Certain character give him a lot of trouble, like those that can effectively wall him away.

can't wait until the competitive scene for Smash 4 is dead in the water in a year or so. The game is clearly a shitty defensive projectile fest with terrible balance.

The problem with Metaknight was that he was fast, powerful, had decent range, and had the most broken recovery in the game.

He DID need this. If he's going to stay fast and powerful, then his range and recovery need to be toned down.

Pretty much. They ported over the frame data for Marth's dash attack but didn't account for the fact that Roy swings his sword a bit differently.

>>270386397
Killing his range or anyone's range to the point that the model doesn't even coincide with the hitbox is not a good nerf. Same goes for the other direction.

It was patched a few days ago tho

>>270383779

Nah, that's ZSS

She's better than the entire cast in every single aspect except weight, and when you have range, speed, damage, and KO moves that have nearly no startup lag the weight doesn't really make a difference

I hope it isn't /v/s influence, but sm4sh 4 really is starting to piss me off with how unbalanced it is. Then again, I never played any other smash competitively or kept up with the scene.

This shit is ridiculous, I just kill myself whenever my opponent is playing Duck Hunt and find a new opponent. Considering doing it with Little Mac as well. It isn't even that those characters are overpowered or that I can't win, but it literally is not any fun at all to fight them even if I do win. Rosalina may be the same, but I've only ever faced a good Rosalina one time.

I see what people mean about the defensive bias in this game, its so fucking obnoxious to approach sometimes. The landing lag just makes it worse, your opponent basically has to fuck up.

Also, they fucking destroyed my main nigga Olimar, I still win a good amount with him but if my opponent is playing an actual good character, I have to absolutely stomp them in skill to come out on top with Olimar.

Tourneyfags can memorize hitboxes and easily guess what will and won't hit.
Scrubs don't pay the much attention to spacing and the animation at the normal speed is probably too fast for them to notice the discrepancies anyway.
The real problem is when hit detection doesn't always work.

Nobody plays the PAL version bro.

I'll admit that the PAL version is more balanced, but that's way post release in Japan and America.

She doesn't need the chain grabs to be honest, she still destroys them.

Axe, Duck and Shroomed still top 8 basically any tournament they go to, outside of the hugest nationals (and even then, Axe's Pikachu will still top 8).

Pikachu and Samus are probably more relevant than ever before.

So is Sm4sh better or worse than Brawl?

So do you guys have any legitimate reason to hate touneyfags?

it seems ever since smash 4 has been announced the hate on tourneyfags has been more cancerous then the actual tourneyfags.

oh, my bad. I wasn't really paying attention and thought your greentext wasn't directly related to your comments on wavebouncing, etc. Never played Brawl competitively so I'm not sure how it works.

Frankly I would like to learn more about the mechanic, since I've been playing PM lately. My preferred method of ledgehogging from a distance is to running shorthop, sideB behind me for turnaround. But sometimes Roy actually starts moving backwards instead of just turning around and I totally drop the edeguard. Can you explain how it works?

>>270390461
He's got a combo/punish game that is on par,if not better than spacies. I'm talking Touch of Death Marvel shit

He has a million options(For Approaching, Killing, Recovery, Mixups, Shield Pressure) the majority of which are safe as fuck

There is no range in which he is bad, he can kill you anyway he wants (Spiking you down, off the top, from the sides)

He's also not a fast faller which means it's harder to combo him

>>270391198
Hax pls go

Jiggly wins tournaments all the fucking time bro, and Axe's pikachu wrecks good foxes. Samus has the best survivabilty in the game also.

No, that's a good thing. What's not good is scrapping DI completely and putting a retarded vector system that also allows for unintentional spikes. This isn't a problem for Mega Man's bair because you mainly use it for gimping anyway, and Palutena's nair has shit starting lag for it to be useful to spike, but shit like a Greninja aerial that I can't recall right now is very fucking troublesome with the broken down vectors.

Melee is when they actually got a budget, you can't compare it to 64 because that game had 0 budget compared to Melee's rough and hard development. Smash 4 is building upon the others without changing too much to make it uninviting,

Honestly come up with a new mechanic without being complicated and I'll take back all I said

Turbo just straight up breaks the game because characters now have infinites

First thing it's not new, that's like saying airdodging is a new mechanic if you map it to the d-pad, besides air dashing/dashing is already a thing with some custom specials which are legal in tourneys.

>>270393549

If your friend doesn't know how to jump or do aerial dodge sure you can do that. But any shitter would at least move the stick to the side and get away from that from getting destroyed.

u wot m8

Fox is in hitstun starting with the second grab until the end of the clip, he never had a chance to jump or air dodge

>>270394961
You want to stay a 3-4 character distance the majority of the match and apply pressure, wolf has a sick dash attack and be sure to take advantage of your out of shield options when zelda short hops.

Once zelda is in the air, wolf can combo her a bit but not as much as other characters. Wolf's up air is the shizzy.

Zelda can be punished pretty hard if she uses nayru's on the ground like a dumbfuck, punish that shit with a forwardsmash or a grab.

I don't know how to DI as wolf unfortuanetly but DI high on side tilts, away on Dtilts.

Bloody Roar is good because if you are in trouble just transform into a huge bat and beat the shit out of your opponent

I honestly don't know what to say, other than "you're wrong." If you know what the animations for hitstun and freefall look like, you can watch the .webm for yourself and see that the Fox never gets out of hitstun.

Maybe you're used to Brawl, where hitstun is drastically lower than in Project M and Melee?

COME ON

>>270398174
The fact that dair combos into itself is a far worse offense.

>>270397814
COME

Meta Knight deserved a nerf. In Brawl, he had incredible speed, incredible combos possibilities, great damage output, great mobility, lot of ways to kill, no recovery lag on his moves, most efficient recovery of the game, great range, and the list goes on.

Now what did they do to balance the character ? well they just removed ALL his pros, leaving him only with cons and making him the WORST character in the cast by FAR.

>>270397814
COME

again, as a person who tried his hardest to play Lucas in local brawl tournies that magnet cancel shit in PM makes my dick rock hard
but it also makes me feel dirty knowing that this only happens in the fanmade mod and the feeling I get is a lot of people playing it hate Lucas for being broken?

>>270383357
I have to agree. Absolutely nobody wanted 4 FE characters. 3 would have been pushing it. The roster is oversaturated with characters that nobody gives a fuck about.

ahem

>Smash fans thinking they know shit
>Calls recovery frames "lag"

>>270398563
It's okay he's getting nerfed anyways

P:M has yet to butcher a character to shit so he'll be fine

>>270398535

>>270398398

I still wouldn't call him the worst character. His moves still come out quickly and his recovery is still good. He was heavily nerfed though.

I gain very little by watching people so far out of my league play, I really don't care who is better then who. If you're a player you will understand, focusing on learning how to throw a spiral not who wins the super bowl
>le psychic medium face

>>270398626
Recovery already has a different meaning in Smash Bros.

>>270383050
This really fucked me up when I was MK. It's not just that you need to be right up their ass now, it's that half of your fucking hits don't actually connect.

>>270398563
People do hate Lucas and Mewtwo for being broken.

But who gives a shit? That never stopped Metaknights in Brawl.

>makes me feel dirty knowing that this only happens in the fanmade mod
what

Do you feel dirty when modding Crusader Kings? Or Mount and Blade? Or Oblivion back in the day when it was good? Or Titan Quest? Or Rome Total War? Mods are made to fix games, faggot.

>>270398750

DI

>>270398596
Robin is absolutely fine, and it's Lucina or nothing. Palutena is a goddess, DP is an angel and a doppelganger. Most of the "anime" shitposting is against Shulk, which is ironically less anime than Captain Falcon.

>>270386714
And this post got completely lost

>>270398905
I didn't mean it like that. The modders obviously didn't get it fixed right the first time either if they're planning to tone down that shit

>>270398626

'endlag', not 'lag'

as >>270398834 mentioned, the term 'recovery' was explicitly used by the game's tutorials and manuals to refer to the act of returning to the stage, so a different term had to be coined to avoid confusion

>>270399115

It was ignored because it's an unsubstantiated rumor.

>>270399152
As any mod ever. It will keep getting fixed until the modders get bored.

Hopefully these chucklefucks never get bored because I want more stuff.

>>270398802
That's fine and dandy but that's the equivalent of me saying who cares about that basket ball player Michael Snowden or whatever the fuck his name is

>>270398626
Recovery means capability to return to the stage.

Sub genre of platform fighter has different terminology that traditional fighter. News at 11.

>>270399115
Because it wasn't patched at all.

>>270398535
>Getting caught in infinites
>Not grabbing/countering

>>270399115
Because it's untrue.

>>270390856

Brawl

>>270399296
yeah, I will say that brawl modding as a whole is really great for a console game, even if I haven't touched the crown gem (P:M) just yet.

>>270399115
Because it's false.

I'm gonna miss you nigga

>>270399115
because it's incorrect

>>270399494
There is literally no reason to not try it when it's a PC mod.

Charizard with a glide would be pretty unstoppable.

Kind of miffed it's gone. Sometimes when I fuck up and hit side special I need some way to recover.

>>270399581
Man, that sucks. I can't know that feel yet since my 3 mains are newcomers, but 2 of them will probably be cut in the next and the other will be butchered to hell and back.

>>270399637
except for the part where my laptop is pretty shit for playing games
and the part where I'd have to buy a GC controller -> USB adapter before I'd be able to enjoy myself
But it all does work on the console itself too, thankfully.

>>270400040
Yeah that's true.

>having only a laptop
the fuck

Why aren't you PC master race yet? It's clear as day console gaming is dead.
