Melee fags are objectively the worse competitive scene in gaming.
They come off as tryhard among tryhards. They think that having enough glitches and exploits means that they will be on the same level as actual fighters.
they never will.

Furthermore if Nintendo ever chose to actually acknowledge their existence, any 'melee remake' they give will be shunned for being not broken enough.
I've never seen a group of faggots that are directly opposed to bug testing and balancing.
Glitches and exploits are fun, but to show it off as an e-sport is just retarded.
>>
>>379466934
It's a rare manufacturing error that makes your controller recognize less inputs. GC controllers are constantly sending inputs making some of the advanced techniques have a very small execution window. Basically it makes it easier to perform advanced techniques but sometimes also eats inputs.
>>
>>379466934
If they're talking about the incident that I think they are then here's the deal.

Some GameCube controllers have a trait where it is easier to perform a dash back (a normal dash away from the direction that your character is facing) more consistently. For some characters this is extremely helpful. Armada (the best player in the world) dropped out of a tournament because his controller stopped doing it and he couldn't find a proper replacement in time.
>>
Someone gonna post a rundown of the controller stuff or do we just trust the initial picture?
>>
>>379466934
Not a smash autist, but here's how I understand the situation.
There's a specific maneuver, some back-dodge thing, that is associated with a shitton of bugs because it absolutely is not intended as a proper move.
The specific controller defect the guy is looking for has to do with the way the analog stick flicks back into place after being fully pushed in one direction. This defect causes the move to be performed consistently without bugs.

It doesn't make a HUGE difference. But since he was used to his controller, it sucks to have to get comfortable with a new one right before a big tournament.

Or you could stop being bad/irrelevant.
>>

If it's not against the rules, then it's not cheating you dipshit.
>>
>>379467253
The Melee scene consists of basically 5 players who do the same thing at every tournament. There's rarely any sort of worthwhile shakeup in things, there's never some saucy upstart who rolls in and destroys everyone with new techniques and skills. It's just the same group of guys who meet up and fight.

And when they're all doing the same moves that require the same glitch to pull off, not being able to do that move means you're already a step behind in one of the most rehashed and predictable competitive gaming scenes on the planet.
>>
>>379466812
If you didn't suck at games, you'd play a fighter with real tech and actual depth. Not Melee. Smash is where the failures of other competitive games go to conglomerate.
>>
>>379467398
Didn't stop Momochi in 2015, and he had to give the round away due to his stick breaking. Try not being a spoiled child, Armada.

>>379467312
The controller isn't modded in any way, the analog sick just moves differently to most controllers. Anyone who thinks this is equivalent to cheating or using an unauthorised/modded controller is brain-dead.
>>
>>379467261
why do you think smashies hated anything after melee?

It does at the highest level.
>>

honestly it's a tossup between them and ASSFAGGOTS, but i'm willing to give melee tards the nod.
>>
>>379466934
Basically the way to look at it is that 90% of controllers have a fucked up joystick that constantly delivers bad inputs and can screw with precise controls. It only really matters to have a correct one in extremely precise situations, so nintendo just decided to push the bad ones out thinking it doesn't matter, except it does matter in the highest competitive tier of fighting games and also in speedrunning.
>>
>>379467659
Good joke dude.
>>
>>379467595
Oh yeah?
Everyone LOVED brawl and sm4sh, and that's why that's whats being brought to the main stages of these smashie's tournaments
Everyone already knows exactly why everyone only plays melee
There's nothing even exciting about smash tournaments, its always the same 4 or 5 autist winning each one
Keep pretending your game matters or nintendo gives two shits about the smash community
You're still a faggot
>>
>>379467618
Literally anyone can get a controller like that if they bother. There's nothing wrong with wanting a broken-in controller, on any system. Armada may have been stupid in this case because he should have made sure that such a controller was available beforehand. That being said, he can drop out from any tournament for any reason or no reason at all.
>>
>>379467732
Not competing is better than trying with gimped controller? Pretty sure he could get top 32 without needing it
>>
>>379467536
>why do you think smashies hated anything after melee?
Maybe because of shit like random tripping and spammable air dodges that were meant to "level the playing field" between good players and bad ones but only actually just accomplish making top level play boring as hell?

its not against the rules to count cards in blackjack either.
People dont even compete in melee to actually play melee anymore.

Even Sakurai didn't like Brawl; why do you think he added more weight and combo moves to sm4sh and nixed tripping and random frame bullshit?

Yes, I fucking hate how Melee's characters are made out of fucking lead weights or some shit; but Brawl was basically a playable screensaver and I wish more Melee players would join the Sm4sh scene.

>>379468309

theres no buffering so you have to time things properly.

If you press something a frame early when trying to link moves nothing would come out.

The gravity of the game is a lot higher than other smash games on average and momentums carries through to your jump so you flying.
>>
So does melee have a high skill floor or a low skill floor.
>>
>>379468309
There is no input buffering because the game was deigned like shit. On top of that, there's this retarded thing known as smash running because they messed up how your character transitions from walking to dashing, so you need to 'smash' the stick really quickly every time you want to run. Every fucking time. And when you want to turn you need to smash the stick but let go within a certain timing otherwise your character stops in place.
>>
>>379468457
and there's literally 0 point to learning it because you will never, never, never stack up in a million years to these autists with jank controllers and 16 years of muscle memory doing the same shit in the same dead game over and over and over

>>379468309
Movement in Melee is very much physics-based and relies on momentum much more than your traditional 2D fighter. It's why things like wavedashing and platforming-canceling are a thing
>>
>>379468554
Theoretically, even competitive melee has a pretty low floor. You can point out all the tech and whatnot, but Borp just goes to show you don't need tech to play at a high level
>>
>>379468061
It's a rare case of the skill ceiling being too high, depending on who you ask. Because of all of the ridiculously precise, wrist destroying tech in the game you have a group of people who have been playing it so long at a high level that the only other people who can reliably beat them are the other people in that same group.

This is probably one of the main reasons i personally prefer to play Melee when it gets down to it.
Smash 4 brought a lot of new mechanics and characters to the table that I really like, but the game just doesn't feel as good to play right now
>>
>>379468798
You probably can't master Melee, to be honest, Di SDI, frame perfect combos/strings/pressure and on top of that perfect movement aren't really things regular humans should be able to do. But yeah anyone can grab the game and play it in a competitive setting and have fun.
>>
>>379468571
fighting games don't typically have input buffers, SFV having one has arguably made things worse

I can't think of a more repetitive, stale e-sport game that exists.
>>
>>379468798
There's a couple things like wave-dashing and l-cancels that will bring you a long way, but I'd say there's about 85% of people who play at a low-level, with another 10% being truly competitive with the top 5% upper crust sparring with one another

No, I consider somebody using a special controller that allows for the use of additional techniques to be cheating. They're better than me, but they still cheat as well. Both can be true.

>>379468968
I haven't played SFV, but isn't it input-lag that people complain about instead of input-buffering? Because there is a difference.
In Melee you have to wait out a move down to the frame before you can do another one other wise the game will eat your input. I know it's not traditional in fighting games, but this is Smash we're talking about.

The input buffer in SFV essentially means that, among other things, blockstrings and frametraps will always be airtight and combos will always succeed. Consequently, execution is trivialized, leaving you with a game of pure frame data.

Meleefaggots will never be taken seriously because they refuse anything that isn't Melee. Nothing will change because they refuse to change.

Say what you will about people playing "Obligation Fighter V", but at least there's a drive to move forward, not just from sponsors, but from within the community itself. There is a hunger for something new, something different, even if that comes with a new set of problems.

This will NEVER happen with the melee community. It could be a HD remake, it could be an unofficial mod, it could be a third-party non-Nintendo Smash game, hell it could BE a Nintendo Smash game focused completely on appealing to the Melee community; it simply won't matter. Meleefaggots will never move on, they have snowed themselves in, forever stuck playing their broken retrofitted party game. They will never accept something different, something new, they are an evolutionary dead-end.

Directional airdodges into the ground causing you to slide was programmed in 100% intentionally and something that almost anyone would eventually do by accident. The developers even knew you could use it to slide around, but they decided to leave it in.

If you honestly believe wavedashing was the thing that gave birth to the competitive Melee scene you are fucking retarded.
And again, it's not a glitch.
It's a product of the momentum and friction systems in the game. That's why Luigi appropriately is ultra-greasy and wavedashes around like a crazy motherfucker, while Ganon can only do it in small dashes. It's not a glitch, it's appropriate for each character, and essentially just hidden tech.
>>379469914
If that's true, why was PM growing into a huge scene before the devs killed it? Why do people play PM to this day even though the devs killed it?

Project M got the attention of a hell of a lot of meleefags until it was kill. If the Switch came out with a 1:1 HD remake of melee that accepted GC controllers there's a good chance most of them would use that instead, eventually.

Meleefags who don't play in locals/tourneys don't really give a shit about Melee as a game, they care about how trendy it is and how they get sick nerd cred for posting about M2K and Leffen on Facebook while sharing (((hilarious))) Melee memes like pic related. If Melee were the exact same game but Brawl had the larger tournament scene instead, they would eagerly be posting Brawl memes because again, they don't give a shit about the game, posting about Melee is just a status symbol to these people. Most of them can't even consistently pull off the most basic of techs and care more about the lore and stories surrounding the stagnant top players rather than actually playing or supporting the game.

The only thing they are right about is the fact that melee players want Melee HD the way they want, when in reality you can't trust modern day Nintendo with anything like that. It would completely ruin the game for meleefags. Like literally a melee that plays like smash 4.

Still, the people talking there don't know shit about melee and are fucking idiots.

I'm talking specifically about a hypothetical scenario in which both games are exactly the same, but for some asinine reason, Brawl became the popular tournament game while Melee is as niche as 64. The majority of the normalfags posting about how much they love Melee don't care about the game or the mechanics, they only want to fit in with the rest of the crowd.

>>379470275
Sakurai's mode of thinking now is more along the lines of "I don't want to make another game like Melee because I already made it."
Worst that could happen is we get the PAL version, which would cement it as the global tournament standard.
>>
>>379470251
Streamers were afraid of Nintendo banning the game (they already tried to boycott Melee at EVO) and if they can't stream it = no views = no sponsors = no money = less players, etc. Eventually people lost interest in PM financially because they couldn't stream it and people just moved on to Melee, the PMDT stopped development no much later after that.

When PM was in the come up Armada, m2k, mang0, Hbox, PPMD, etc they all played the game and upsets were a common occurrence all through top 50, let alone that PM slowly started to surpass Melee in entrants, you are just further proving that you know nothing about what you are talking about.

You all need to understand something. All of you, whether you love it or hate it.
At this point, melee has become an immortal videogame.

They can do an updated port with all tech remove. Melee survives.
They can destroy all discs of the game, official controllers, and CRTs. Melee survives.
Nintendo can outright ban it from any big tournament. Melee fucking survives.

Melee is the only 100% true grassroots game community. Playing this game could become illegal, and fucks would still play it.

I do think the melee community wants to move on, but none of the other smash games really appeal on the same level. Brawl fucking sucks to watch and play, Smash 4 is fun to play but boring to watch.

That's because the game/gamecube itself aren't meant to be displayed on an HD tv and it produces a noticeable amount of lag. It's safe to assume the theoretical switch port wouldn't have this issue (I'm honestly not sure how they'd fuck that up but they could probably find a way), I'm sure they'd be glad to not have to lug around CRT's.

No it wasn't, actually. They never threaten to do it but not only was the PMDT afraid of a lawsuit or D&C from Nintendo (you and me know they've done this before) but also you can't get sponsors for a modded game if the company doesn't support it, that's obvious.

That would objectively the best that could happen. The best version of melee in HD.

And then they whine about Fox every fucking tournament. Fox is arguably not the best in PAL.

Melee is just more fun to watch. Sm4sh and Brawl are sluggish and they barely even have combos, let alone any kind of tense off-stage play. You wouldn't even need to have played any of the games to notice this.

Did you forget about the time Meleefags sucked daddy Nintendo's cock around the time of Smash 4's release? They went up on stage, shook hands with Reggie & co, and helped showcase Smash 4 in exchange for sponsorship money and by extension, the death of Project M. It's funny that Hungrybox thinks he has any right to call out Nintendo when he's one of the people who happily participated in said cocksucking.

>>379470538
>I do think the melee community wants to move on
They don't, they'd rather die than give genuine support to any attempts at creating a successor to Melee. Project M died because of the aforementioned cocksucking, Nintendo didn't flat out C&D it but they bullied it out of big events and eventually the devs got too scared to continue with it, and any fanmade projects that lack Nintendo characters fail to even get off the ground because most of the fanbase secretly refuses to play anything without iconic Nintendo characters.

Everyone keeps saying that the game is still growing but it's just the same nerds over and over again. I've seen people call them gods and that no one will ever even touch them, but if that's the case, then doesn't it just cement the idea that the game cannot move forward if there's ~8 people who are unbeatable to anyone not named themselves?

What's the fucking hateboner anti-meleefags have over wavedashing?
It's an extremely fun and easy to do mechanic (seriously you can learn how to do it with most characters in just a little bit).
It makes the game more fun, faster, and complex (for those into more complex games).

I like being able to slip and slide all over the place. Being able to instantly reposition yourself and move backwards while looking forwards is great.

PAL is bad because it's less fun. Sure you can argue that it has better balance (which is wrong by the way, NTSC 1.00 has the best balance due to the way it handles SDI and a ton of low/mid tier tech still being there), but the changes it adds are terrible. It even nerfs fucking Ganondorf, and makes Sheik even more reliant on needles making her even more annoying to fight against. PAL buffs Jigglypuff hardcore, we don't need that shit.

Why the fuck should I care about drama at a fucking video game tournament. Its not the fucking WWE. Drama shouldnt be what entices me to watch the same 4 people play at Evo. Drama shouldnt be an acceptable answer when the meleefags boo and hiss at every game that isnt melee.

When organizers finally realize how stale the game has gotten and give it less time, meleefags can fuck off back to watching MTV or the CW for their drama fix.

The best Melee players are really sad people. Can't say that about other fighting games.

Anti-meleefags are the anti-intellectuals of videogames. It's like a strange amalgamation of Brawlfags and fgc stream monsters. They hate that the players are skilled at something that isn't easy to do, and they can't comprehend ever trying to be good at something even when you may not actually become the best.

I remember when a bunch of people in the smash community ended up booing a kid in a tournament because he beat one of the top smash pros to the point where the kid started crying because he thought he did something wrong when he should have been happy for winning(to be fair the pro player did try to get them to stop booing and consoled the kid). They also jeered during another game's top 8 finals as well and took all the seats.

Though to be fair there was a massive backlash of criticism within the smash community from its own members towards these individuals. You don't ever see this level of treatment or attitude from other FG communities to other games.
>>
>>379472032
>i said it was all about drama
Maybe you should learn to read before using the computer, anon.
If the game itself was shit then the drama would suck and feel forced, like Smash 4, but Melee's gameplay it's fun as FUCK to watch to it helps a lot to get people invested.

Not at all

Every competitive game in existence uses "exploits"

You guys know Combo's were an exploit in Street Fighter 2? should fighting games ban Combo's just because your feelings are hurt that someone else beat you in a fucking video game

Also Armada plays fucking Jigglypuff, a shit tier character, that's why people don't mind him using a controller that makes back dashing easier

Definitely sure it was Smash Bros, i don't remember who he was playing against. I think the guy playing was Zero? Might not have been EVO but it was definitely a big scale tournament. I think this was during the height of which game was to be the representation smash game for the community with the decision being between brawl/melee and people wanted melee more than brawl so they could have just been booing the game itself but it's still poor attitude.

There's literally no difference between Dolphin and vanilla Melee. You can even mod it with proper rulesets and it won't crash on certain stages either whereas vanilla Melee does.

They are eventually gonna have to play it on Dolphin

This is Chinese Whispers if I've ever seen it.

SFIII and Alpha to a lesser extent were a downturn in mainstream popularity, not the FGC.

That isn't even due to the quality of the games either, this was just when the mainstream were salivating over 3D games.

And the SFIV resurgence was down to nostalgia and online, not that it was a better game than Third Strike.

I tried practicing "competitive melee techniques" and I realized it turned the game into work instead of making it more fun like everyone promised. Melee isn't a competitive fighting game, it's a party game that was broken by speed runners who like to pretend it's a competitive fighting game even though it's really a PVP glitch exploit contest. As annoying as the diagonals and quarter circles in Street Fighter are, at least the game was designed that way instead of being a glitch.

If Melee had been released today, all these "competitive techniques" would have been patched out before they ever had a chance to be accepted by the community as a legitimate way to play via a balance update.

They might laugh at it or call them fags, but that's it for most things. Unless it turns out this community doesn't just politely circle jerk themselves in the privacy of their community hubs, but instead proceed to spread shit across everyone else fun or discussion.

When this happens, then you get things like this thread, where a community is primarily known for being a bunch of shitters who overhype their sacred idols that won't shut the fuck up about it. They'll hem and haw later about how it's just the vocal minority, but guess what: it doesn't matter because they let these assholes define their public image to everyone else and didn't bother to stop them properly. So now they have to put up with being the laughing stock of the fighting game community, which only amounts to some hurt feelings and butthurt anyway.

That's fair to you? People should be responsible for how other people act, when they have no obligation to do so or can't be in a position to do so at all times? To control how others act?

One supreme autist refusing to play without malfunctioning hardware doesn't represent the whole melee community.

SM4SH already has the entire backbone of "melee techniques" with shffl. All that's lacking is wavedashing, which has always, fucking ALWAYS, been more of a gimmick for 70% of the melee roster than anything actually useful. Wavedashing is the single "exploited bug" that has any credence, and it's a minor gameplay boost for all but 3 characters.

SSBM is bad in the same way that FF7 is bad, or that Undertale is bad. Autists came along and poisoned the well for the reputation of the entire playerbase.

An HD remake of SSBM that kept the pace and removed wavedashing would be an amazing game.

You have been told repeatedly that combos were created -during- the development of SF II and the games design was altered to take this into account. They are in no way a "glitch" in the finished SF II product.

New guy to this conversation line, and I say as someone who lived through all those years and was active in the 1997-20010 FGC there was one thing that killed fighting games.

And that thing was Super Smash Bros.

Before Smash people played fighting games socially. You'd go over over to someone's house and you'd all play Street fighter Alpha 2 or X-men vs Street Fighter or KOF or any one of many different fighting games.

Then when Smash came out the normals didn't want to play those kind of games anymore. In fact a lot of them didn't even want to play other multi-player games like Goldeneye or Perfect Dark. It was just Smash, and only Smash.

Of course people still played games like Soul Calibur and CVS and MVC2 and such but it was just the hardcore types. People who would want to attend a tourney even if they didn't have the access to do so. The casuals just turned away in droves and only cared about Smash for years after, especially once Melee came out.

>>379473141
>And yet every SF5 player wishes the community stuck with 3S or USF4.

>>379477071
People should be responsible for maintaining their community if they want any sort of professional existence in a larger community. The Melee community isn't disparaged because of a few rando asshole elitists, they're disparaged because this shit has come up in real life at real events involving real people in face to face interactions. I'll admit, having to beg your community to be presentable isn't a thing most communities have to deal with, but there are ways to manage your events to avoid this shit.

And even then, it's not just about somehow controlling how people act, but controlling the image they present to others. Which means siding against the people fucking things up for you in a public way, about making it clear certain things won't be tolerated if people want to be considered a part of things. No community ever does this properly, so they get defined by their shittiest members because they'd rather get defensive and deflect any negativity than vocally deal with their community members. At best there's a half hearted "not all hastags," but that never works.

And again, all this amounts to for Meleefags getting shat on in shitposting threads online. There are some times you need to suck it up and deal with people shitting on you on the internet because some assholes misrepresented you. You'll notice this thread is pretty split too, with about as much people defending Melee as trashing it. If people were stoning Melee players in the streets maybe we'd have something to talk about, cause otherwise you're not going to get any sympathy complaining about anons being mean and petty.

Me, I say that.
I started with USF4 about 5 years ago. And USF4 and 3S are better fucking games than Knockdown Fighter 5.

Who else almost never watches smash gameplay if items are turned off, I bet 99%+ times in competitive play they're turned off and that's boring, probably could compare to Mario Kart with items off. The games are way more fun with items on so there will be salt. Only ones I've played are the original and melee.

>>379467195
It's actually kind of funny how people who don't know Melee very well are talking about this
It's not some kind of magic exploit, the problem is literally with just dashing backwards from certain states. The game was coded stupidly so performing a normal dash, going backwards, is effectively randomly hard. At peak human performance, it can still be impossible to perform a dash backwards sometimes due to the way inputs are polled. The controller defect basically minimizes the effects of the random difficulty, so your character will do what you're telling it to do more often in this one specific scenario.

I can go more in-depth if you want

I think it's safe to say if you can't play it with a functioning controller you're not playing it as intended.

Melee is so fucking deep even without tech. The ability to jump to platforms alone makes it 10x more variable than any other game out there. Sheild, grab, attack. What is my opponent going to do? What does my opponent think I'M going to do?? What does my opponent think I think HE'S going to do?? At surface level you fucking monkeys a basic ass bitch game where exploit a bunch of glitches. Melee is a game of the MIND at higher levels of play.

Honestly, Smash 4 is less competitive, but it's more fun to watch. Since the game hasn't been completely solved yet, we don't just have the same five people fighting in every tournament. At any point some nobody could join a tournament armed with a new technique nobody knows about and kick everyone ass. It's exciting. You can't do that with Melee anymore, since even a perfect TAS Fox does the same techniques, it just does them better.

You can't pick up a football. That's a foul and will get you booked.

Just face it, requiring a special controller that adjusts the controller inputs is an advantage outside of the game and therefore cheating.

It's not really like that. It's just at super high level, a new player wouldn't even be able to tell the difference, and not even all tops are as autistics as the one who dropped from a tournament for that reason. Plus, you can also mod your controller.
