Smash 4 is guaranteed to be a poo poo game because the dumbass Sakurai is working on it. Why Nintendo didn't swallow their pride and hire actual masters at their craft like the Project: M dev team is unfathomable.

FZeroRacer posted:I feel like people are focusing too hard on the Mod part of the thing and not realizing how much of a herculean effort it is to actually mod a game like Brawl without easy access to the source or development tools. It's certainly very impressive and laudable, but when it goes hand in hand with "gently caress everyone who did all the stuff that came before," it looks lovely. Fortunately I don't think the actual Project M developers have been anything but respectful of the Smash Bros team.

Bicyclops posted:Project M is a little like Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul. It's not necessarily difficult to install but it is an extra step. It is not an objectively superior product but appeals to a specific kind of player. It's for a niche group of players who do not make up the majority of people who play the game and they enjoy it very much and good for them, but maybe we don't need to hear about it every single time any aspect of the game is mentioned. OOO is better than its vanilla counterpart so I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

The Crusher posted:The bike gave Wario some really serious recovery options, I thought. When used in the air, it essentially gave him a third double-jump. If you pulled back before you jumped off the bike, it sent him higher (much higher than either of his normal jumps); if you pushed forward, it sent him forward. That, coupled with his waft, essentially gave him the second best recovery in the game (behind Meta Knight). Whatever boost his shoulder bash gives him in PM is peanuts in comparison. I know the topic's moved on but I knew a thing and I wanted to share my knowledge.

I generally like Project M, but I do think it suffers from its design goals being so specific--ie similarity to melee and tournament play. Too many stages including Sonic's are sort of robbed of character. Not that I'm a huge fan of the actual Brawl Green Hill Zone but it would have been cool to actually make an interesting stage of it instead of 'eh, let's make it like Final Destination'

It's understandable why a lot of the Brawl stages aren't considered legal, and in theory creating legal versions of those stages is better than banning them, but the alternate designs they've come up with are all so basic.

Like the WarioWare stage was fun once or twice and then the minigames became more annoying than fun. Or New Pork City, because New Pork City. The stages they've added are some of my favorites, like Hyrule Castle and Fourside. FZeroRacer fucked around with this message at 04:47 on Jul 8, 2014 |

I have played Project M all of one time, and the one thing I really want from it is Lucario's super-slow, high power neutral B. It's just such a good spacing tool that even a scrub like me can enjoy (or punish the poo poo out of people with a charged ball).

I really hope we get some remotely interesting news in the next Miiverse post, so we can talk about that instead of Project M. You know what? Here's the Project M thread. I wonder if we'll get another Smash info dump (comparable to E3 or Smash Direct) between now and the JPN 3DS launch. I am more curious now if the 3DS has any other features beyond Smash Run. I can imagine a smaller Direct video between the 3DS and WiiU launch just to showcase the WiiU features still under wraps.

Zonekeeper posted:The main reason you should play Project M is that it un-nerfs Jigglypuff. This is true but they also gave every character that wasn't a melee top tier a ridiculous recovery so she's still bad against like 75% of the cast. But Rest actually does something again and that's all that matters.

Zore posted:I don't like the Pokemon trainer being split into three different characters (a problem I also have with 4WiiU and 3DS). The changes to the Ice Climbers make them feel really weird, and I dislike that they can't freeze people any more. Ike is a lot less powerful and doesn't feel anywhere near as satisfying as his Brawl version where I had a lot of fun playing as him. Also they changed a bunch of his poo poo to mirror Roy... and then put Roy back in the game. I don't know why there's this obsession with making characters more alike when they weren't in the base game. Clones suck. Ike is actually a lot stronger and plays nothing like Ike though? And the Pokemon actually are worth playing now and don't suck.

Not that I'm a huge fan of the actual Brawl Green Hill Zone but it would have been cool to actually make an interesting stage of it instead of 'eh, let's make it like Final Destination' I agree that they shouldn't have neutralized every stage, I mean even in the competitive scene there's not many stages that get picked. A lot of the stages that changed and poo poo were dulled down and they don't even get picked anyway so that is kinda dumb.

I don't know why Lessail needs to keep posting like everyone involved with PM hates regular Smash and wants to kill Sakurai. In fact, I see more regular Smash people sperging out about Project M, then I do Project M people demanding Sakurai's resignation and the cancelling of Smash 4. It's like if you ever mention you think Project M is really cool there's a sudden need to poo poo all over the place about how it's not a REAL Smash game and they're just a bunch of disrespectful hackers, or do whatever Lessail keeps doing. Really the only thing I have a problem with in Project M is the stages, and I forget about it because I have the Classic Stage Expansion mod installed and have replaced most of them, or returned stages and updated the new ones (Brawl Green Hill Zone, Project M Green Hill is now Scrap Brain Zone).

Ike rules because you can now dash across half the stage with his side b, jump cancel out of it and whack someone with the sword for the best of kills. What they did to Ike was nothing but a fantastic improvement, to me. Ike was glacial in Brawl.

While I'm not going to argue that they haven't been respectful or anything, 100% of the reason they aren't allowing the Smash 4 backports is that Nintendo would no longer be able to stay willfully blind of the project and would 100% shut it down.

If Nintendo even acknowledges Project M exists, they have to either shut it down or risk starting a precedent of allowing people to mod their games. This has come up like every time this threads hits the "NINTENDO GONNA SHUT IT DOWN" phase of the weekly Project M chat.
