The game felt smooth and fluid though, wouldnt Sak try to build on that instead of taking the paste of the game into something slow and sluggish. At any rate, Im sort of sad to hear that MK has such bad movement speed. Personally Id like to seem him move as fast as fox(melee) or at least close to it, with big KO attacks that do damage. I forget if he has a glide move, its something similar to peachs (melee) right.
Also, it’s pace, not paste.
…seriously.
Sorry, I don’t mean cancel, I mean link. Of which there are definately a lot of examples even outside of GG. Mostly through repetitive jabs.
See then he’d be Fox all over again.
I think he might be a very solid character design wise because of his slow movement speed.
Look at all his moves, they all move him across the screen. If he had fast movement speed AND good fast Smashes it would be “ditto” Metafights all day long.
That is no fun.
On paper he makes total sense to me. I really hope he works out. Let’s all hope that at least half ( like 17 at least ) of the characters are competitive in high level play in the end.
what he said. ad naseum.
Well with the absence of wavedashing which was a very balancing tool, I dont know how well the balance well fair in this game. I dont want anohter fox clone but they could adjust his speed to being quicker, even if its by a small margin. He should have a glide move though, something like peach’s floot in melee.
He can glide.
Have you been reading the updates?
On paper Metaknight seems fine, I’m not going to say I don’t trust smash bros players thoughts, but I mean they made a big deal out of the IC infinite. I don’t know what to really say about that.
It kinda makes me think how weird/different MvC 2 would be if the Smash Communities thought process was shared by the fighting game scene.
I’ll just reserve my thoughts until we get more vids and the game is released. Then we can really judge the tiers and what not.
If you’re so adamant about Brawl being a Melee clone, why not try your darnest to contact Sakurai or his management? Because with comments like “Make him a little but faster, and have a glide move” you really shouldn’t be talking to us about this, since we obviously have no part in the development. If you really want change don’t let it fall on deaf ears ol’ chap!
lol I don’t even know why I’m falling for this.
Man, wavedashing is not the be all end all technique.
I’m not even certain how you can argue giving the same technique to every character particularly helps balance ANY game.
Sure, some character’s dashes were stronger than others, but there were only TWO characters that were affected in any meaningful way: Ice Climbers and Luigi, and this STILL didn’t give them the edge over the upper characters for whom wavedashing only made up a tiny fraction of their game.
i call character update for tonight. it’s been 2 weeks, and the updates have been boring.
update for tonight: final smash ball replaced with supermeter and ZSS announced as independent character and has a new final smash that’s worth a damn.
Uhh to back up a bit, if you guys want to see examples of old school terms applied to Smash gameplay then check this thread out on smashboards.
Damn whoever wrote that article in that thread is too fucking nice. 
Fixed.
…seriously.
You say seriously alot.
…seriously.
I wonder if anything from Super Mario Galaxy is going to be Brawl, that would be sweet.
crosses fingers for a character update or at least another assist trophy, so some more of our hopes and dreams can be crushed.
Which…is exactly what a chain combo is.
Which originated in Darkstalkers.
"He can glide.
Have you been reading the updates?"
I meant more like how peach can glide in melee. Anyways I dont really mind the new"terms" the smash scene uses, its just a different view on things. Although the majority of these terms wouldnt even apply to brawl considering Sak is removing all the techs and skills that made melee so great for some reason.
Dude would you just shut about that crap for a while please? You have no idea if Brawl will be great or not and if it isnt you still have friggin Melee to play so just get off it for a while. You sound like a whiney child.
i mean I don;t mean to be rude and I know I;m new here and shit but you keep psting the same fucking thing over and over. Reading it is getting old. I like reading this topic and your making it suck.
If everyone dissagrees with me about this then i guess keep posting but i have feeling everyone else tired of hearing it to.
yo i did not have time to check all the posts on this thread, but i work at wal mart and there is a huge mistake in their christams wish list ad concerning brawl. it advertises the game saying that it WILL be released on 12/3 2007. now i talked to the people over the video games, but they seemed disinterested, so this is apparently nationwide, but if i find the ad i will post it up.
maybe this was just me, but i always liked smash’s speed a lot more than melee’s…
