-The new HrC is somewhat cool actually. However you cannot spam BD-combos as easily as in Melee now.
-The Final Smash feature is cool, but some FS' just suck (eg. Peach, Luigi).
-Marth was getting nerved.
Broken characters aside, they introduced too many "random" occurrences that impact the game. tripping, and most of the new maps are unpredictable, and diminishes the skill element. (as luck has a bigger factor) It seems like they wanted this game to fall in line with the mario party games, by adding enough random shit so that anyone can win, even people who suck.
Even with the randomness, my room mate and I have a very hard time losing to most people. We even play 2v2 handicap matches against level 9 CPU and still win a great portion of the matches.
There have been serveal stdiues that come to the colisuncon that pepole can unsatdsrend words farily eaisly if they are julbmed eexcpt for the first two and last two letetrs.
English spelling will have to change somewhen. Spoken language will continue to develop further and if spelling stays the same we'd maybe arrive at a point where you really have to learn the spelling and pronunciation of each word by heart. There'd be no point to using letters then.
Finnish is the language that makes most sense.
The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English". In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter. In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away. By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru. Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.
In Melee the shield was less safe to use because it was laggier and harder to powershield. This is not the case in Brawl of course.
64 is also more unbalanced than Melee btw.
If I recall, there is some trend that determines whether attacks on the ground clank or if one overrides another. Projectile priority there are cases where some projectiles get destroyed or not by whatever attacks. When an aerial attack is used, attacks never clank. That's what I vaguely remember.
The bottom line is that discussing what characters are "good" in brawl is pointless, because better players will win games, even if their choice isn't top "tier".
Priority only exists for projectiles and ground based attacks. In the air, it's all about the size and duration of your hitboxes.
Yes, the Bucket is way better in Brawl. The collecting range is ridiculously huge. You can Bucket stuff that is way above, below, or behind you. Fox lasers get you a KO at about 60%. D-throw Techchasing into a Spill is godly. Pair up G&W with Zelda and turn on friendly fire, you get a team combination that is broken because Din's Fire gives 1HKO Buckets (yep, kills at 0% ftw. Watch this vid too. The guys playing kinda were a little Oil Panic greedy, but it was ownage. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48cDctKCOm8 ).
Interruptible As Soon As frames are a feature that has existed since Melee if I recall. Take Marth's D-tilt, you can repeatedly use the attack before the entire animation ends. It has an IASA window that starts on frame 20, so while it takes about twice as long for the entire attack to end, you can use 3 D-tilts in one second (Marth can also interrupt his D-tilt with other attacks too if I recall). Also in Melee, this was noticeable on G&W because he could spam Smash attacks without ever leaving the attack stance. This works just the same in Brawl on various things. Ganondorf has many IASA frames on like his U-smash, Jab, and F-tilt that actually make him usable in Brawl. G&W has the same stuff on his attacks like he did in Melee which owns. Marth still has his D-tilt, yeah. I think when you take knockback, there are also IASA frames for air dodging out of knockback before you can perform other actions. All in all IASA frames are not quite the same as having low lag attacks, but are really nice options for working around the lag of attacks.
Or would tournament results tell you what characters the better players chose to play? The bottom line is that discussing what characters are "good" in brawl is pointless, because better players will win games, even if their choice isn't top "tier". Remember that the people who make charts like that are the exact type of people who will spend more time analyzing the game then actually practicing and getting good. You will even see posts every now and again by one of them lamenting a loss to someone who chose a "bad" character and beat them.
Right, but the whole idea behind the chart is still flawed. You can't for sure say that one character is at a disadvantage to another because you can't account for play styles, skill, or priority manipulation.
While I agree that speed is important, the heavy hitters in Brawl are getting a lot of love lately. Aren't Dedede and Ike some of the most used/victorious characters in competitions lately?
In SSBM, I played as one of two people; Captain Falcon, or Ganondorf. I refuse to believe that the characters I'm a master at are complete fodder in Brawl.
Apparently Ganondorf can't beat anyone ever and Snake is the best possible choice? Falco is at a disadvantage to G&W? In my house, a person with Ganondorf has a decent chance of taking home most of the KOs in a stock match, especially against the likes of Bowser or Dedede. Falco and Wolf tend to run the house, and it seems really unlikely that G&W would be able to overtake either of them... I wonder what the basis is for half of this. I doubt it's based on anything entirely supportable.
Actually his Down-smash has a big hunk of invisible range, and it's not even that slow. It's fast enough to the point where you can D-throw into it if your opponent doesn't tech. His D-throw leads to guarenteed combos on an opponent that doesn't tech as I said. You can Jab and regrab, you can D-tilt, I think you can even use Judgement. If they do tech, at least you can try to chase him down for another grab. Btw the throw also can spike if you grab someone next to the edge.
And the Parachute SUCKED in Melee. G&W's new N-air is actually a lot better than his old one. http://brawlcentral.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=75&t=17313
His D-tilt is also better than it was in Melee contrary to popular belief. The hitbox is HUGE. I mean ridiculously huge, and the completely horizontal knockback can gimp some recoveries if you ledgeguard with this. Either way it's HUGE.
Also, he's THE best character in the game at juggling for several reasons like his amazing Up-B, his improved U-air, and also his B-air breaks shields.
Topping that is the fact his kill options are just plain overpowered. This includes his improved Down-B, which has huge collecting range, and gets shitloads of 1HKOs (yes, kills at 0% so many times).
Oh, and his shield FINALLY COVERS HIM.
Trust me he's easily the 3rd best character or so in the game. Everyone down at SWF agrees he's awesome. The only two characters that truly rival him at this point are Metaknight and Snake. G&W has like no real weaknesses in Brawl. He's got crazy priority, amazing recovery, great combos, great approaches, and great kill options.
Any kind of creation, artistically or otherwise, is based on previous works. Even just combining previous works in a clever way can be a noteworthy achievement. That's what enables a society to evolve.
Nothing is meaningless. And the reason is... I'm the president of the great United States of America!
It's a hot topic around here as well. This year they managed to get the Internet censorship law through with the excuse of blocking access to child pornography sites. However, it was soon revealed that the anonymous official who maintains the blocking list has their own interpretations on the law. Blocked are several pornography sites (that are not child porn), and even sites that have nothing to do with pornography, just happen to share a DNS address with some site that has some page that has some comment form where a link to some child pornography site was posted. (Not to mention the fact that the censorship solves no problems at all.) But they are contemplating on extending the censorship to things like piracy sites (The Pirate Bay for instance), Internet gambling (Poker), etc.
Though I don't know what you're referring to exactly with political correctness.
Then there's the fact that posting opinions can get one charged. Especially those that are in opposition to the official truth regarding multiculturalism ― the official truth being that multiculturalism enriches the culture and if the native population perceives a significant portion of (african) immigrants as muggers and criminals in general (which is supported by the police investigation statistics), it's because the native population "is not integrating well enough". For the same reason, most newspapers practise sorts of newspeak with news regarding immigrant incidents. I believe Swedish newspapers do the same. When they use the word "youth" or "youth groups", it almost certainly means somali groups.
I don't like most jokes that put someone/a group into weird light, such as blonde/negro jokes or Chuck Norris jokes.
Saturn, I found a glitch involving a special combination of movements, it really optimizes subpixel movements, so far I've saved 1 frame for every room... talk about crazy... I might release a WIP, but I'd rather you figure this one out for yourself.
You misunderstand the point I was making. I don't know where you got that I didn't like him complaining about broken games. He was complaining about long games he had to review, not glitchy or unworkable ones. I WANT him to say "Wow, game x is a shitty piece of ass fuck [/avgn] because it is too 1) glitchy, 2) load times take forever, 3) ect." I don't want to hear him complain about how much time it will take him to review good/long games.
Honestly, all he does is complain. Cry me a river, but I could not care less about your work load. Your job is to play and review games, a job many other young adults get wet dreams over. Love it or leave it, but don't bitch about it.
Where do I know you from again neophos? I recall the name...
What makes me happy: G&W RAPES in this game.
I know some of the basics and the dos and donts. I'm gonna use SNES9x v 1.43+ v 9
What is the right way to go about the actual recording? Do I just create a savestate from the start and test one by one the optimal frames? (For instance, I couldnt tell you the earliest frame I could press start at to bring up the menu automatically at the start screen). Would I just simply set a savestate at the beginning, create another one before each frame I test to see if start then will bring up the menu, and just repeat it until I get the result?
Are there any other helpful tools I might want to use outside of that? Is there any menu option in snes9x to perhaps set and stop a frame count (like a timer for frames) and what is there to display the overall frame number of recording?
