Those were some awesome matches, NeoCracker. :) You played lots of heavy characters I'm not used to fighting against. :p

NeoCracker
05-20-2008, 03:05 AM
I said before, I'm surprisingly good with Bowser. :p

Of course this time around he doesn't suck.

Edit: And the heavy characters are probably to make me feel big, as in real life I'm underweight. :p

And yes, they were fun.

I'll add everyone when my husband stops playing his sonic game and then I have to watch the House season finale, and -THEN- I might get some SSBB time.

I'll prolly be playing -all- day Thursday and Friday. If I'm not on SSBB I'm on Mario Kart. :D

And wtf Cracker, I hate heavy characters, I don't have the patience to press a button and then have the attack take more than .5 seconds to actually move. e e;

Does Gannondorf count as heavy? I want to get him unlocked because I was playing online brawl and yeah.. who ever that dude was, was doing some serious ownage.

Shoeberto
05-20-2008, 03:40 AM
Ganondorf is definitely a heavy. He's like a slower version of Falcon. But he's so freaking beefy it makes up for it.

NeoCracker
05-20-2008, 04:02 AM
Ganon is definately a heavier dude.

He was my best in Melee. I'm not as good with him now, but I still got some skill.

Avarice-ness
05-20-2008, 05:23 AM
Maybe I'll force myself to like Ganon or something...

Either way, I added all the SSBB friend codes that my attention span could handle. *skips off to kill things*

NeoCracker: underweight ftw! :p, but i still like fast characters...although i AM looking forward to using Dedede, and Bowser, now that he's good...and Ganondorf too...and Donkey Kong :p are there any i missed?

Ike is pretty heavy. Though I'm not sure HOW heavy compared to the other big guys.

Though Metaknight is very fun, so Underweight characters so rule. :p

Shoeberto
05-20-2008, 05:06 PM
I'd say Ike is almost as heavy as Ganondorf, from my experience playing as him.

NeoCracker
05-20-2008, 06:05 PM
A bit lighter then him, but I say that sounds about right.

Masamunemaster
05-20-2008, 07:03 PM
I think he fits right between because he was the first person I used and he was fast for his size(I kept up with metaknight)

ljkkjlcm9
05-20-2008, 07:26 PM
Ike is big and slow, but he also has some really fast moves that if you utilize well, he doesn't seem very slow. That's his biggest advantage over the other heavy characters

What? She has a nice chest.


I can't be the only one whose noticed.

(And I bet you all thought I was talking about the tennis racket. :rolleyes2)

.:kerrod:.
05-21-2008, 07:08 AM
haha, OH EWE AH SEW FUNNEH! that would be 'tennis racquet', my friend (even though both spellings are acceptable, i prefer the traditional one :)) :p and i can't say i've ever noticed :tongue: besides, i like tough women like Samus much better ;) :bigsmile:

EDIT: and on that topic, can somebody here tell me what Samus is like in this game? i've heard she's pretty sh*t, which would be VERY disappointing, and i hope they didn't weaken/slow/destroy her too much to compensate for Zamus...i just wanted to ask a REAL person about it, rather than hearing about it from randoms...

NeoCracker
05-21-2008, 08:45 AM
She seems basically the same to me. Of course I've never played Samus much in Melee, so I'm not the best judge.

Zero Suite moves very fast though. Can't recall much else as i haven't used her much in this version either. Though if you enjoyed Samus in Melee, you'll probably find her just as fun in Brawl.

PS: If you haven't done so, check out Peaches boobs and you'll see what I mean.

This will likely be my last comment on this matter. :p

.:kerrod:.
05-21-2008, 08:53 AM
ugh, ok, they WOULD be nice, were they on a real person :p ok?! HAPPY NOW?!

thanks NeoCracker, but as you said, you haven't played as her much :) so does anybody else want to comment on the Samus/Zamus matter? perhaps somebody who's used her a fair bit in both games?

EDIT: and another thing, why does Zamus' gun suck so much? apparently her whip is uber powerful :rolleyes2 but her gun fires like, 2 metres and doesn't even do that much :p so WHY is she considered so strong and high-tiered, WHY was Samus (apparently) nerfed because of her? :( and WHY didn't they put dark samus or ridley as playable characters? :tongue:

dark samus had so much potential...she could be a semi-clone of samus, but with Phazon rage-mode as her final smash and a freeze rocket as her 'charge shot' (neutral b) which temporarily froze the opponent depending on how long you charged it (like Lucas' PK Freeze)...that would be cool :p...and MAYBE for recovery she could have like, feet rocket things like on Corruption instead of screw attack :p

Shoeberto
05-21-2008, 06:27 PM
Her gun sucking is probably just in reference to Metroid Zero Mission when she temporarily loses her armor and her gun sucks.

I haven't played much as Zero Suit Samus, but from what I've seen, she just plays a lot differently than other characters. I'm sure if you got used to her specific play style it wouldn't be too bad to play as her.

Yeah, ZSS is completely different from other characters. The armor pieces do a lot of damage and have great knockback, so be sure to throw them after transforming. The third jump is actually her down special, while her up special can be used as a tether. You can also use her up special multiple times in a jump. Using it twice in midair will cause all opponents hit to be spiked down. With the side special, the end of the whip will first push the target, then send them flying a good distance, but if you miss, you will be open for an attack.

.:kerrod:.
05-22-2008, 08:06 AM
she better be good, cos Samus is looking pretty crap at the moment :( and if they BOTH suck, then Nintendo can die in a fire...

Shoeberto
05-22-2008, 07:15 PM
Why do you think Samus looks like crap? She's still one of the most fun characters to play, in my opinion.

.:kerrod:.
05-22-2008, 07:31 PM
well all of the reports i've heard say she has no strengths and many weaknesses, now that she's slow, weaker rockets, etc. and i know i'm really basing this off nothing, but i just want to make sure she's still able to hold her own

Zeromus_X
05-22-2008, 11:10 PM
Samus is awesome. I don't see much of a difference at all between how she was in Melee and now.

Zero Suit Samus is awesome to play as too; sure, some of her moves have a bit of a lag, but they are quite effective after all. You just have to aim well.

Monol
05-23-2008, 01:00 AM
Samus definatly got nerfed...But she has the most enjoyable new play style (next to pikachu) on the competitive scene.

Use Z in the air...her grappler *drools* so fun...use it, love it, destroy with it!

As long as you fight with the aerial grappler than shes the most fun veteran from melee by far :D

Yay samus!

.:kerrod:.
05-23-2008, 11:10 AM
well it's good to finally hear GOOD reports about Samus :p man i'm sick of waiting for this game...i still play melee every chance i get, but it's still 33 friggin days 'til Brawl is released here :( poor form, nintendo, poor form...

while we're here, does somebody feel like explaining what wavedashing is? :tongue: i know they took it out of brawl, but i've never gotten a straight answer as to what it actually is in melee...

also, can toon link charge his up b like big link can?

That's what we have Main Page - SmashWiki (http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page) for!


Changes from Melee to Brawl

* Perfectly-timed side-B results in a Super Missile
* Super missiles do vertical knockback
* Screw Attack traps opponents (as in Super Smash Bros.)
* Bomb jumping is harder to do
* Less knockback on neutral aerial
* Down Tilt more powerful
* Bombs no longer explode on enemy contact
* Can't perform moves out of Morph Ball form after bomb jumping
* Slightly slower
* Homing Missiles home better

As for Pro's and Con's in SSBB:


Pros:

* Multiple useful projectiles. Her Charge Shot and Super Missiles are some of the most powerful projectiles in the game, and her Homing missiles are extremely useful.
* Can missile-cancel
* Down Aerial is a powerful spike
* Down Smash is quick and powerful
* Back Aerial still a good finisher, and Down Tilt is an even better one
* Forward, Neutral, and Up Aerials and Up Smash are quick and have high priority
* Bomb Jumping gives great horizontal recovery
* Tether Recovery option with Grapple Beam
* She is very heavy. Combined with great recovery options and lack of a huge target for her weight, Samus is one of the hardest characters to KO.
* Grab has incredible range
* Jab is quick, has a large hitbox, even hitting behind Samus, and clanks with most moves.
* Aerial tether has incredible range, decent stun, and no landing lag. (A technique known as Grapple Canceling or Grapple Boxing)
* Charge shot from a perfect shield block has guaranteed damage.
* Lots of combo options.
* If the situation requires it, the player can transform into Zero Suit Samus by using her up & down taunts.

[edit] Cons:

* Quick, high priority moves have low knockback and damage
* Grab is slow if it misses
* Somewhat sluggish
* Large Target
* Powerful moves are on the slow side, making it hard for Samus to score quick kills
* Slow rolling
* Can be juggled in the air due to being floaty
* A forced change in play style if Final Smash is used.
* Taunting to change into Zero Suit Samus is relatively hard to pull off correctly.

I do like Zero Suit Samus though. <3

AFter lag started slowing down, and we stopped killing ourselves, me and Jackal were having fairly good match.

Until we disconnected.

Which means our relatively good match was like, 10 seconds.

but the lag definitely killed me at the beginning of our match lol
and there were times where I pressed shield, and you hit me and I went flying, then he did an air dodge.... yay lag!

question, who is T-Rex?
I'm sorry but you people confuse me with your random names.
It's like when I played PSU. I'd know people's main character, and they'd come up to me on an alternate character and say hi, and I had no clue who they were. I had 4 characters on that game, every single one of them was named Jack</>el lol

Evastio

I have four. One for collecting all of the stickers and three for beating Boss Battles mode on various difficulties. I refuse to do it. I hate that mode.

Evastio
05-26-2008, 11:09 PM
Me too. After having Marth slaughtered by bosses for weeks I finally managed to defeat Tabuu and them on Intense and get the Galleom Tank Trophy (Counter really helped). I also managed to get the Blue Alloy Trophy yesterday (I did it with Ganondorf last. It took a lot of tries to defeat with him strangely enough). The only Challenge I have left to do is getting all the stickers (weird huh?). I've used a Sticker Factory to try to get them all. So far I have 698 different stickers.

Yeah, I know Boss Battles isn't the funnest of modes (especially on the Harder difficulties when they move so fast and their moves kill you so easily). I guess all I can tell you is that you should stick with a character you're good with and come up with a solid strategy using them (that's what I did for Marth) and remember that you can still complete Boss Battles Challenges on Co-op mode. Or you can do Charizard's Side B repeatedly to the bosses, which supposedly works really well except when I use it.

I'll look forward to facing you then.

Also, you main Samus and will probably be using her in Wi-Fi matches right? (secretly plans to use Mr. Game & Watch to use Samus' charged shots against her)

Well, actually I'm not really that good with using his bucket. The only time I do successfully use it is against bosses and when the people I'm facing let me use the bucket on them.

Anyways, on the topic of Samus here is a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGEhOfYmFcQ) of how you shouldn't edgeguard with her.

Evastio
06-01-2008, 08:19 PM

Yeah but the basic idea still applies: not attacking people if they can't reach the ledge after their third jump.

Personally though I try to go for meteor smashes if possible. I still need some more practice succeeding in pulling them off with certain characters, namely Marth and Luigi.

Monol
06-02-2008, 02:46 AM
Its a pretty freakin epic edgeguard non the less O_O

.:kerrod:.
06-02-2008, 06:26 AM
epic indeed...and i get why she sucked now...i didn't realize fox wouldn't have made it back without her attacking him anyway :p

and i'm gettin' pretty good at meteor smashing with luigi :cool:...on melee :(
i'm actually between mains right now, the people i switch between are: Samus and Luigi (mainly), Ness and sometimes Kirby, if i feel like it...but that could all change with brawl :)

are they fairly generic mains? just out of curiosity...

Monol
06-02-2008, 08:44 PM
Samus kind of but not in the competitive scene.

Neat choice in floaty canidates ma man but know in brawl those characters play pretty differently (except luigi who somehow just got even better) speaking of which...getting good...with luigis meteor...in melee...?! TOO good sir...too good :)

06-03-2008, 09:04 AM
yeeees, i'm a light, air-bound character fan :p im really looking forward to pit and meta knight (and especially lucas), but because brawl is fairly balanced, im also really looking forward to playing as some of the heavier ones, like dedede and bowser (and snake and ike, if they're classified as heavy) :)

23 days :exdee: then all i have to do is get used to the new feel of my characters before whipping everybody else's collective @ss :D

Evastio
06-03-2008, 11:50 PM
Keep in mind that although it may be tempting to try to practice using similar characters in Melee to get used to new characters in Brawl (like using Link to get used to using Ike, using Ness to get used to using Lucas, etc.) there'll be no way that you can practice for certain characters. Characters like R.O.B., Lucario, Meta Knight, and King Dedede are much more different than the characters from Melee. My cousin tried to use Jigglypuff to practice to use Meta Knight and he ended up being nothing like he thought he would be (seeing how the knockback of his attacks are lower than anyone else's in Melee yet his comboing potential was much higher). Basically all I'm telling you is that you shouldn't expect to be really good with Brawl's newcomers just because you've practiced with a veteran character from Melee that's similar to them. There's no harm in doing it but they'll still be much more different than you think.

That also applies to the Veterans as well. Although I wouldn't worry about them too much seeing how most of the changes are good (Ice Climbers homing onto the ledge with Belay, Bowser's Fire Breath not shrinking as quickly as it did in Melee, Captain Falcon gaining a little vertical height from hitting someone with his Raptor Boost done in the air, Marth's Sword Dance being easier to perform, etc.).

I feel a bit guilty reading over posts like these. My older brother ordered SSBB from America probably a month ago now, so we've had it for ages (I live in the UK) and, honestly, neither of us are ever on it. So I feel a bit guilty when people are counting the days and saying it's going to be the best game ever when it's sat on the shelf not being used. We got all the characters and never touched it again.

I don't know why we don't play it, though :/

and Evastio: i know my characters (and the new characters) will have a very different feel...i'm actually on a melee fast right now (so im not even sub-conciously practicing :p) so that brawl will be my sweet relief when it's released :p but yeah, im not the 'practice like my life depends on it' type, so i wouldn't do that even if i was naive enough to believe that i could pick up brawl and pwn with a character i was good with in melee :)

By the way, I managed to defeat all of the challenges yesterday. The last one I completed was getting all of the stickers. I managed to get the Mario Superstar Baseball sticker (the last one I needed) during a Coin Shooter run.

It was long, grueling, and hard but seeing all of the windows in the challenges section broken and open made it all worth it in the end. :D


Bravo Evastio, bravo. :choc2:

Yeah, well you know how it is, looking at the Challenges Board feeling dissatisfied with all of the unshattered windows on it then wanting to shatter each and every one of them so it looks complete.

Also, I defeated all of the challenges without using a single golden hammer. :D

well i'm in year 12 now, so everything counts, and my report cards are fairly terrible too, not to mention i'm not doing well in my subjects :p every year up until now i could just coast through assessment with minimal effort and come out with B's or A's, but this year and last year it's all C's and B's (with a couple of D's thrown in the mix) :( luckily, brawl comes out just when my holidays are about to start, so i'll have some time to play it without letting school suffer, however, i DO have lots of assessment before then, so i have to try and get it off my mind until it's released :p

You know what really sucks? The fact that the only trophy I'm missing is the Cranky Kong Trophy (Once I got that I'll have all 544 trophies). I actually tried to use the Coin Shooter to get it and went from 9999 Coins to around 1300 and I still didn't get it. I swear Cranky's trying to avoid me on purpose. Once you think about it it's quite ironic seeing how Wrinkly Kong (Cranky's wife) is the very first trophy you start with.

Yeah, I'm the kind of person that likes to try to get 100% in games I really like. Especially when I'm so close to completing everything already.

It depends on how old your Wii is. The earlier runs from around the time it came out have a higher chance of running into the problem. Nintendo offers a free repair program, though, if you run into trouble with it.

It should be okay then.

I still don't have my Cranky Kong trophy, even after going through one long coin shooter match where I went from 9999 coins to 0 coins. :(

And the dojo said that the longer you go coin shooting the better the chance you have of getting new trophies...

also, Evastio, i believe the decision for this to be released in Australia first was a corporate one, Mr. Nintendo thought, and i quote 'them damn europeans are so damn cocky, they can be the last region to get this', yes, Mr. Nintendo himself said that....*cough*....

As for the tournament thing, i personally would prefer it to take place within the next two weeks (not including this one), solely because im on holidays then :p

Im going to write all of your codes down and add you later...we dont have to be online at the same time just to add each other right?

Don't worry too much about it. With the changes from Melee to Brawl, even I (the guy who's practically got a perfect Brawl File) sucked really badly at first. You'll eventually get used to Brawl's new feel and be able to unlock Luigi (whose Up B is harder to hit with but has his Side Smash and Down B improved. Him flipping over after doing his Up B also makes recovery much easier, strangely enough).

So, whould you europeans want the tournament to be in 2 weeks, or would you rather it be a month so you have time to catch up with us superior American Gamers. :cool:
Two weeks should be enough. :greenie:

I just started playing. I did get it the same day it was released, but sadly I had a trip planned in that very same day. I got home pretty late yesterday, so I haven't really catched up yet. But it shouldn't take too long until I've unlocked all the important stuff.

Oh, and can you play custom-made stages online, by the way? :greenie:

At the moment, I like Ike the most.:greenie:


Edit: I still like melee's feel better, though. Brawl just feels so much clumsier. Just thought I'd add that. :greenie:

Edit2: Gah, now I totally overused that greenie-smilie again!

.:kerrod:.
07-03-2008, 02:17 AM
haha ^^^, anyway, i don't think you can play the custom stages online, unfortunately...i havent tried though, so i could be wrong, but that's what i've heard

i think i like brawl's feel better, i think it's LESS clumsy than melee cos you actually have to execute and time moves rather than button mash :p

And at the moment i'm a real Lucas fan, i play as him mostly, then second to him is probably Samus or Lucario, but there are so many good people, i basically just put it on 'random' and screw around with whoever they give me :tongue:

p.s.: bit disappointed with Sonic's moveset...all his moves are very similar to one another...but i LOVE how fast he his :bigsmile: i just dash from one side of the stage to the other the whole time :p

The DOJO has posted a new update (http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/info/info08.html) showing the World Record for all of the Target Smash levels and the Home Run Contests done with every character. They also showed the top Co-op records for those events as well.

I have to say they're quite impressive. I can't even get over 1900 ft. in the Home Run Contest or defeat any of the Target Smash levels in less than 10 seconds. Even after watching the replays sent in by Nintendo Wi-Fi I'm still quite clueless as to how to achieve records like that myself. :sweat:

Even so, I guess I probably shouldn't be so discouraged since those people probably haven't even defeated all of the challenges on the challenges board (without using a single Golden Hammer) or defeated all Solo and Co-op Event Matches on Hard Mode like I did. :D
