Not sure where I should post this but I know some will like this. http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/screens-of-playstation-all-stars-battle-royales-dlc-show-new-characters-stage/
I have been playing this game for the last two weeks since the release, and I have played Super Smash Bros. Melee at a competitive level for many years now, and I can tell you this game is very very much a more primitive version of Smash Bros., with slightly different game mechanics.
The most this game revolves around is tech-chasing and knowing how to combo moves. There are generally two playstyles: Combo to reach level 1, then create tech-chase situations and set up your level 1; or Comboing until level 3, then using that. In a 1v1 situation, it gets no more complex than that. The characters that fit 1v1 best use the first strategy (Sweet Tooth, Fat Princess, etc.). Yes, you can grab, but they go under the “creating tech chase” area when countering a block. In a 2v2, the third playstyle that is added is setting up for your opponent’s super move.
Otherwise, that is all there is to the game. The combat system is rather lacking, and outright unfair for a lot of matchups. The game is not designed for a 1v1, and should not be played as such. Few characters perform at a top level in 1v1, and otherwise the gameplay is not nearly as satisfying as playing the original Smash, Melee, or Brawl in the least. At least 2v2 is a more respectable and fulfilling means to play the game, though.
From what I’ve seen, since it’s all about Super bar for the kill, it’s all about LV1 super IMO.
Soo… overpowered chars in this game should have IMO
#1: Good meter building combo
#2: Good LV1 super (Seriously, I noticed some chars have good meter build combo but crappy LV1 and thus have to go for LV2 most of the time)
#3: Good easy hit confirm combo into LV1 combo.
#4: Recent to Good Range, the maps can be big and sometimes can go all over the place.
Now, that can’t ALL be the requirement, but that’s what I’m noticing in matches. Rather then going for gimmic LV3 (which takes forever to build meter) you might as well go for 3xLV1 for more kill combos.
And yeah, I am complaining that this game should have a kill counter IN BATTLE, so we can tell WHO’S WINNING during a match.
I like the style of it and I adore most of the characters in it. I’m still a newbie but hope to play more.
Fuck. The latest 1.05 patch eliminated the ability for Nathan Drake to AK Run from cover. The AK Run loop is no more.
Does this mean that Clockw0rk is out?
random question: why is this still sticky?
Unstickied and moved to the excellent Playstation All Stars forum.
