This thing called reading allows you to see past just a few words in my history. I've explained this before, I don't particularly care for the dismantling of the Smash community due to online networking. I could not care less for such a feature, honestly. The internet has a lot of shitty people and I'm not sure I want to play with them (by shitty I mean assholes, not suck).

Example, there are a lot of people at the local college who play on a daily basis. What's the use of these guys coming the community area to play when they can just log on the internet? Meh.

That's pretty sad. Don't you have something called friends? I know atleast 6 people who will be really good at this game. Of course online is a huge asset, but the game is far from worthless if it doesn't have it.

I still don't understand where you're coming from. Online multiplayer makes it infinitely easier for people who don't necessarily need that community experience, and who just want to get a quick game off with their friends or random people. Heck, not everybody has friends that can come over on a whim and play some SSB. Most of the time, it's a whole lot quicker and easier to just get online and get a nice game in with your friends than to all meet up and play. I'll admit, it is a whole lot more fun to have your friends next to you as you're playing together; but sometimes that's just not possible. Implementing online multiplayer is a win-win situation. If you and your friends are that hung up about the community aspect/experience, you can still meet up and play together and attain that experience. Nobody's forcing you to go online......

I still don't quite get it. I can't help but wonder if some of you people believe that they would leave vs. mode out if they included online. Besides, the kind of people that would stay home to play Smash Bros. online would likely find something else to play online anyways. And yes, there are plenty of assholes online, but even then I would much rather always have a human to play against (even in the wee hours in the night) rather than the AI or a lot of my friends (who aren't that good, regardless of which mode we play)

online play is typically worthless for fighting games because of latency issues. because of this, local communities are very strong and healthy because they exist out of necessity.

and when it comes to fighting games, local play > online play.

If the online is poorly implemented, then the hardcore crowd will ignore it and still have community meet ups. The casuals, or hardcores looking for a quick fix, will still have the option of playing. It's win-win no matter how you cut it.

That makes me sad.


Online also opens the game up to the whole world. I'd love to play someone in a country I knew about, and see polls on which country is beating which for stats. The game could have a lot, and after Mario Strikers successful online and Brawls' delay, I think it is almost a safte bet.

Why the hell wouldn't it be online? Number one celling franchise. 50% of wii owners online. It would make it the best game ever in my opinion.

The only way they can really suprise me is if they announce 4vs rather than just 2vs.

I read your post, nothing in your immediate post history explained your stance, so I'll go with what you said before. Assuming there will be online, I can see it folding out two ways...

a). Online Mode sucks: No problem, it's there for those who want it, tourney players will still have meet ups.

b.) Online Mode doesn't suck: Extra practice against non-AI opponents, easier comparrison of play styles around the world, easier/more tournaments, more chances to play with friends. The only thing lost here will be face-to-face interactions, which may not phase out anyway if it turns out people would rather play against their opponents IRL to avoid possible lag, or make sure there are no controller modding, etc.

I mean, I kinda see where your coming from, but I don't think it'll be that bad of an issue.

No way the face-to-face tournies would end. There will still be events like FC and 0C. MLG might pick up Brawl again for all we know due to the explosive popularity of Wii. The smaller local communities will still likely hold weekly/bi-weekly smashfests and tournies. I don't doubt that neighbouring communities would still travel to play each other once in a while (like BC and Washington).

Online will not destroy Smash's community. For one, I believe it's too strong. For two, there will be lag no matter what so we know the biggest tournaments will be held offline.

I mean, honestly, things like this just look too fun not to have even with online (watch all of it, not just the intro):

Can't have dodgeball matches in online smash, nosiree!

No, I agree fully with you. Just saying there even won't be lost face-to-face interactions. And damn, I saw the FC3 Montage again and everytime it amazes me. Especially three of the gameplay shots. Two IC combos and one Falcon combo.

ZELDA!

Just like Link, Zelda’s design has also changed.
She has a slightly more subdued color scheme.

Her movement capabilities are not that good, but her magic adds power to her physical attacks. There’s a reason why her hands and feet glow, after all.

I love the updated Zelda design. Too bad the update didn't mention anything about Shiek, or weather or not Zelda will be weilding her sword.

Nice new looks for Zelda!!

Uh oh! No mention of Sheik! Let the wild speculation begin! *bang*

Considering that they've always been considered to be two separate characters, of course they won't mention sheik. :)

TP Zelda is my favorite Zelda design. Sooo ****ing awesome.

I don't think Sheik will make a return.

I don't see a sword on her person. =\ Also, since she's the TP Zelda, she probably won't change into Sheik either.
Unless TP Zelda does that? I got bored and stopped playing the game after like the 3rd dungeon.

if they're showing her now, hopefully she'll be playable for an e3 demo and the answers will be found at that time.
