Support NeoGAF

[Daigoro]

wtf?

what is going on with this. how could the dev team not know anything about this? makes no sense.

been thinking about this lately. hope we get some word soon.

 

[Freshmaker]

Ubisoft replied, "The original release date was communicated incorrectly. We'll be releasing the DLC in the fall. More information to come as we get closer to launch."

So Double Dragon Neon's MP is due in 2015? Nice.

 

[whitehawk]

So only a few weeks left of fall... No one knows when it's coming out?

 

[Azure Dream]

So Double Dragon Neon's MP is due in 2015? Nice.

That was weird. I don't know who started the rumor that Neon was getting an Online patch, but finding out there actually weren't any announced plans for that sucked.

 

[Toppot]

Well at least with the trophies out it can't be far off now... I hope.

 

[clear31]

so are we ever getting this???

 

[NateDrake]

so are we ever getting this???

Does anyone really want it at this point? I forgot I even have the game.

 

[Kyari]

Ubisoft claims it is cancelled (their license expired), Bryan O'Malley says that it isn't ... so no one really seems to know anymore.

"@radiomaru

There’s a rumor going around that the Scott Pilgrim video game DLC from Ubisoft has been cancelled. Status: FALSE. @gameinformer "

[Dambrosi]

I dunno, I'd finally like to get a chance to play this game co-op instead of solo.

Though, if this DLC ever comes out, they better include Knives as well as Wallace.

 

[wwm0nkey]

According to major nelson it comes out on February 6th.

 

[Roto13]

According to major nelson it comes out on February 6th.

According to Major Nelson, it came out in August.

But if it actually comes out this time, it's priced at $2, so that's cool.

 

[Isaccard]

This is still a thing?

Wow

 

[Toppot]

According to major nelson it comes out on February 6th.

If he lies again I'm gonna be bi-furious!

 

[ScraftyDevil]

Really looking forward to this. I want to play online with some GAFers... T^T

 

[Katzii]

If this does finally get released, I might actually get around to replaying the game on PS3.

 

[MaverickHunterX]

Trailer up:

Feb 5/6 on PSN/XBLA. Only 2 bucks!

Looking forward to going thru my GOTY 2010 one more time!

You'd think there would be some complete bundle or something for newcomers?

 

[ultron87]

Bahahahaha.

Was there just one guy in a lonely cubicle working on this for 3 years or something?

 

[Roto13]

Bahahahaha.

Was there just one guy in a lonely cubicle working on this for 3 years or something?

Probably! Friggin' interns.

My hopes for the netcode are not high.

 

[overcast]

Is it literally just Wallace and online co-op? Any new levels?

 

[Coffee Dog]

Wow, it really is great to see dev support so long after release in this day and age. They must have loved working on it.

 

[Toppot]

Wow, it really is sad to see awful publisher support so long after release to cash in on the continued popularity and colour releases of the books in this day and age. The small team roped in to make it must have hated working on it.

Think I fixed it.

This is not the same lovingly crafted experience as the original game, this is a cash grabbing (I think vita porting to) move made by Ubisoft and done by some completely different team with little or no contact between anyone who worked on it originally.

The Knives DLC was pretty poor as well, re-added cut content and a forced extra character. Though this Wallace character is really forced.

 

[Eusis]

You know,w hen I saw the thread title I thought we weren't seeing it until Autumn of THIS year. Not that May's much better given how long ago this was announced.

Well, I'll probably still grab it.

 

[Roto13]

You know,w hen I saw the thread title I thought we weren't seeing it until Autumn of THIS year. Not that May's much better given how long ago this was announced.

Well, I'll probably still grab it.

It's coming next week.

 

[FaintDeftone]

I hope the netcode doesn't suck like most of these beat em ups.

 

[ezekielpacman]

I swear it was originally going to be free. Oh well, not a bad price.

 

[DigiMish]

WTF - charging for an online mode?

 

[MaverickHunterX]

Wow, it really is great to see dev support so long after release in this day and age. They must have loved working on it.

To be honest, really surprised that we didn't see this ported to newer systems (3DS/Vita/WiiU/Steam release) or even a retail based Wii version with DLC included. I thought the game did well financially? Bryan Lee O Malley said on his blog to bitch to Ubisoft about it...

 

[clear31]

glad it's finally getting a release

 

[clear31]

I spoke too soon, i go to joystiq and see this article


http://www.joystiq.com/2013/02/04/scott-pilgrim-dlc-delayed-again/

We had such a good feeling about the prospects for the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World online multiplayer DLC. It was due to be released on XBLA and PSN this week, but Ubisoft has delayed it once again – one day before release.

In a statement sent to Destructoid, Ubisoft says it is "addressing feedback from the community on the best ways to honor retro games in the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game DLC in an accurate and respectful manner."

That likely translates to removing the elements that appear to be cribbed from Sonic Battle. This is the weirdest DLC ever. Sorry, Soulcalibur 5.

 

[Roto13]

Amazing. And hilarious.

 

[Bankoiia]

Wow. So they cut and pasted stuff from Sonic Battle into this DLC? Not quite sure I get it.

 

[Kikujiro]

Lmao, they are doing it on purpose, that could be the only answer. I hope some insider can share the story behind this clusterfuck.

 

[Pie and Beans]

You don't need to be an insider that whoever the cheeky fuck they outsourced Wallace's spritesheet too literally just ganked animations from Sonic Battle.

Yes, little thief. Thats not a thing you can do in the real world.

 

[daycru]

My favorite practical joke in gaming.

 

[Dave1988]

Wow, this is like the Duke Nukem Forever of DLCs XD

 

[Toppot]

Fuck, probably delayed so they can sort out Wallace's end of level animation, which was a fuck up that needs to be fixed.

And I just played this again the other day to get the Knives trophies and get warmed up.

Fuck.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

"Where Wallace at, String? Huh?? Where the fuck Wallace at?!"
