I love this little short clip.
Gives a taste of what to expect from the head-to-head multiplayer mode.

The player changed to the hand really quickly, wow.

It isnt that gamepad that interprets the shape, it is the game. When you draw the shape you see exactly what you drew.
It would be the gamepads fault if you drew an S and it looked like an E or drew and O and it looked like an I. But from what I see what you draw is what you get but the game doesn't interpret the shape well.
I still wished she showed some examples of the shapes she is drawing and what was happening on screen, then we would know if it is user error or the games fault.
The player changed to the hand really quickly, wow.
That is a good thing to point out.
I wonder how the gameplay mechanics will change for that mode.
Do you have to change to the hand when you're already Wonder Red?
I don't think you have to draw the shape to form the morph every time when you've already drawn it to switch to that character. There's probably a button to form it quickly since you want to drop it at times during combat for mobility.
That's not from an actual vs mode.
I'm not sure there is a vs mode announced. Just competitive co-op
I'm not sure there is a vs mode announced. Just competitive co-op
Recruit friends to fight cooperatively by your side in multiplayer, or compete head to head in battle mode.
Key Features
Lead a horde of superheroes in a fight against alien invaders
Recruit new heroes to learn powerful new abilities
Take on alien invaders in intense, over-the-top battles
Buy new abilities and upgrades at the ingame shop
Battle alongside friends in co-op multiplayer, or take them on in battle mode (additional accessories are required for multiplayer mode; sold separately)
Not only that, but the shape turns the color of the morph you'll get as you're drawing it if it will recognize and accept that shape.(presumably so you know you got the form and can concentrate on size for bigger morphs)
So I don't understand drawing an S and being surprised that it gave you a sword. You'd know you'd be getting a sword because your S was blue.
and it's also not real time. Game state slows during Unite Morphs so you can take your time drawing and probably still continue combos when you're done.
I haven't played the game and I can see the potential for issue, but given what I've observed from videos I think Platinum has put alot of consideration into combating these issues in the design of the game. They've(Kamiya) learned alot since Okami with this kind of thing. (which is essentially what it is. Okami's drawing mechanics in a more action oriented game)
Oh
well that video is just meant to demonstrate spring morph regardless. So I don't think quick form is something exclusive to versus
edit: please go easy on the gifs. Definitely don't need to post the same one 3 times in one post...
Im sure we'll see battlemode in the direct tomorrow.
May be the closest thing we'll get to powerstone, in superhero form.
I hope so. I didn't even know there was one until right now and I thought I was following media of this game closer than most. :x
While the game might be great, I don't think any game will ever justify the need for the gamepad. It's a pointless device.
As long as you keep telling you that, having no Wii U might be bearable. Theorically it could work.While the game might be great, I don't think any game will ever justify the need for the gamepad. It's a pointless device.
Also this month: Rayman Legends. It has demonstrated the need for the GamePad just fine last year at Gamescom, it will still do so this month, at launch.While the game might be great, I don't think any game will ever justify the need for the gamepad. It's a pointless device.
I'm going to buy this, the kids played the demo through about 20 times. That's rare. Buying a game after playing a demo, that's even rarer.
30% off for buying pikmin 3 helps.
Edit - *of course it's going to be at least 30% more expensive on the eShop compared to Amazon.
