I guess you guys are right, it reminds me of playing Unreal Tournament. I find that playing duels with no items or vehicles just brings out a higher level of play. I mean still play standard DMs most of the time because more people want to play at once, but I feel that the politics of DM limit the skill required and dampen the possible mindgames. My skill went up very quickly after I started playing competitively. I don't think casual players really understand how much more quickly you learn and how many things open up when you let go of DM and try a truly high level of play. DM's are still ok I guess, but I tend to get bored if I stick with them for too long. My friends aren't into UT as much anymore, but I wish they'd try out competitive playing because it's what brought me back into the game. I didn't know probably 99% of what I do now when I played casually.

 

[Crushed]

Well, we can always go back to whether this game has a dating sim in it.

Krystal and Sonic and Fox and Yoshi and DK and Diddy and Dedede dating sim, rawr.

 

[KittenMaster]

Sonic's in it for the human princesses.

SonicxZelda, confirmed.

I wonder what the unlockable would be?

Since I'm scared of the other "discussion", I'm going to reply and say that yes this is exactly what I meant.

SonicxZelda, confirmed.

OBJECTION!

Zelda has pointy ears, and is clearly an Elf!

So, I guess he's after Peach then?

That's okay. Sonic has pointy ears too.

An anthromorph thread, tee-hee.



"Oh, Mewtwo," Krystal purred.

So Sonic in it for Sheik then?

 

[KittenMaster]

So Sonic in it for Sheik then?

No. That's for Shadow.

I was just wondering, what is the reasoning behind Lucario being on a lot of lists for expected/predicted characters? I know there was an animated movie starring him and what have you and that he seems like he could fit well into the game mechanics. Is there any other reason(s)?

 

[Fireblend]

:lol And this is what happens when smash fans have nothing to do. A tournament discussion appears, everyone ends up with stupid, flawed arguments and suddenly we're making references to Death Note.

 

[ratcliffja]

Is it just me or does this thread seem even more active on the weekends?

 

[crowphoenix]

A horror worse than the item/no item arguement. We can now say, you want to argue? Fine, we'll do this.

He was on that list from the guy who revealed/guessed the Dragoon item.

 

[ratcliffja]

I think the Dragoon item is just a rumor, Sakurai is a false prophet.

All the posts about smash are on weekdays.

 

[Psychotext]

Thread is freaking huge, can't seem to find this in the OP...

...what's this about RPG?

 

[ratcliffja]

You know, this thread is supposed to be about the dojo. Here's a hint. The last part is always in regard to the most recent update. To be more specific, this is about the fact that the SSE mode allows you to upgrade your stats a la an RPG.

 

[VeritasVierge]

I bet this is fake:

A. No-one has actually seen the newspaper
B. This was supposedly yesterday's newspaper -- wouldn't the news have been reported MUCH earlier if that was the case?
C. The scan looks like it was typed out on Word and printed on A4. Look at all the WHITE SPACE
D. Isn't the text supposed to be vertical?

Jiggy, do you have any stats on what percentage of this thread is sucked up by us arguing about this shit?

There are some things even I dare not track, because learning the truth would unravel the fabric of my brain and perhaps of all space-time.

Crushed, you've reached a new level of horror. I salute you for that.

So, moving on, I think Monday we'll be getting a new stage.

Where was that list again? I cant seem to find it.

Calling the statistics page for Monday. Not sarcastically, either; game modes are really the only update type that Monday has stood out in.

 

[Iam Canadian]

So, moving on, I think Monday we'll be getting a new stage.

It would seem that we're due for one. However, it seems that stage updates have gotten far less frequent since the first delay. I also find it curious that some franchises have 2+ stage updates while others haven't even gotten one yet...

*Strokes chin thoughtfully*

 

[ShockingAlberto]

On Halloween 2007, a post was made by ChaosZero, describing the Dragoon parts in amazing detail. The funny thing is that the Dragoon Parts were not so much as acknowledged by Sakurai until the 12/28 DOJO Update. Thus, ChaosZero became the first true "prophet" that people stand to believe.

-Character: Sheik (Interview w/ Eiji Aonuma; reason for why Zelda's special moves have not been mentioned on DOJO or CoroCoro cards; Disagrees with Vatro Xu)
-Character: Lucario (Many prophets have said this, including Vatro Xu)
-Character: Ness (Vatro Xu disagrees)
-Character: Wolf O' Donnel (Agrees with ChaoticImplosion & Vatro Xu)
-Character: Falco Lombardi (Disagrees with ChaoticImplosion)
-Character: Ganondorf (See almightgoat for more details)
-Character: Captain Falcon (Agrees with Vatro Xu)
-Subspace Emissary Detail: Mewtwo (implied, if Mewtwo is not returning)
-Stage: Final Destination (Many prophets have said this)
-Item: Dragoon (10/30/2007) (Dragoon Parts update occurred 12/28/2007...

 

[Jiggy]

We just had a stage on Tuesday.
But maybe people forgot because the delay kind of brainwashed everybody.

Can we like, talk about smash bros information in here? I don't know anything about what the fuck you guys are talking about.

Kthnx.

But that would require being on-topic and none of us are good at that. How can you be so inconsiderate?

Sorry I fail at life I glanced over it for some reason in the Prophets thread. I see it now ><

 

[NickP786]

Love the new update, should make playing on more difficult settings much more fun / interesting. I go back and forth on whether or not I'd like a multi player mode with that feature, but I think that'd be pretty cool too

I really should've known better than to follow that link just because Sciz said he should've known better than to follow that link. D: I bailed out after like eight pictures, and now even the fly larva crawling on the handle of the kitchen sink frightens me. No, really. There was some kind of small fly crawling around and I just about jumped. D:
