The match video definitely needs the music. SG music is badass.

Why not put it on youtube? Facebook video is like a worse version of youtube.

Lol @ people ignorant of smash. So much misinformation, that arguing away people’s stupidity would require a full thread in itself. Knowing SRK, it wouldn’t help anyways.

First and foremost, great that the team is recording videos in HD, it’s great to see more footage, I recommended the team to create and upload mo HD videos, and I’m sure while my suggestion and the result was nothing but a coincidence, it’s still great to see what I wanted actually come to fruition.

But yeah, the videos should be on youtube. I understand that they are trying to encourage people to go to their facebook page, but I’d recommend that the staff eventually (maybe a day or two later) puts the facebook friday videos on youtube. Besides, they should also encourage subscribers to their youtube page.

And the stuff people were saying about the clones on smash was just laughable. I honestly would expect much much better from SRK. Competitive fighting gaming is about move sets and play styles not how pretty and different moves look. If you want a fighting game like that, go play Marvel Nemesis competitively and see how much fun you have.

The video that was posted on facebook is now on youtube with synced audio and the music playing. Great gameplay! Although Mike is still learning parasoul it seems XD

Ok where can I talk about important issues with the online match making system?

The best thing that can help is to be able to search for players just from europe or just from the US etc.
Let us see the ping. (In ranked hide the name but show the ping while giving us the option to accept or deny)
Let us see their national flag a-la SF4 when the rooms show up in the search.
Make the default option of the room size to be 1v1. It’s annoying that 90% of the rooms are 8 players and you have to wait so long to play.

For #3, I could also add it would be nice for US players to also show the state they’re in, for better connection selection. If there’s privacy concerns, maybe divide to larger areas (west coast, middle, east coast). Pings don’t often reveal everything, but geographic distance usually is pretty reliable measure.

On the other hand, for #1 definitely make sure European players can search for opponents from whole of europe, 1 country is too small an area, especially for a smaller game like Skullgirls (I barely find any matches in my country for SSF4, so I have to search “whole world” and manually pick the europeans from the list - the “same region” searches only in my country). Again, division like northern EU / southern EU would be helpful.

Showing the ping might be a problem though, If I’m not mistaken M$ certification for XBL / Sony certification for PSN games requires latency to be indicated with a graphical indicator (and NOT a number). I’m not 100% sure if this is the case though.

You could always just make your own room and change how many people you want in your room…

HDR shows ping numbers.

Sorry if I’m being a dick and this has been shown before, but can anybody point me to information about how the whole team ratio thing works, and what it does?

SRWPyrit · 2011-08-27T21:59:13.000Z

But wearing panties over clothes is MY fetish…

3 normal characters = point + 2 assists.
2 better characters = point + 1 assist. More damage/defense than the previous.
1 buff-ass character = 1 buff-ass character. Best damage/defense, no assists, nothing to do with that red life.
1v1 = best 2 out of 3 rounds.

Smoothjazz101 · 2011-08-27T22:07:26.000Z

So less characters = more health and damage? Anything else?

Tessius · 2011-08-27T22:16:38.000Z

I completely agree with deice-'s post. Being a european fighting game fan is always a pain in the ass when you’re trying to get some online goodness going. I hope you really make a deep online matchmaking system cause that’s one more thing you’ll have going for you against your competition, who knows you might even set the standard for future fighting games.

To me who really only has the option of online play it’s something I’ve really been missing.

SRWPyrit · 2011-08-27T22:18:02.000Z

I noticed in the vid that Parasoul snaps back and Cerebella pushblocks. Are these universal mechanics, or are they character specific moves? Also, I was wondering about the custom assists. What if I do something like custom assist= HP+HK? Would the game register that as just the normal with more priority or would weird shit happen? Just thinkin’ about stuff.

EDIT: I LOVE the death sound, please don’t change it!

Universal mechanics.

Everyone can snap back, everyone can pushblock.

You cannot assign tag to an assist. If you press HP+HK as custom assist, you just get HP.

Not as far as I know.
