Posted January 2, 2008 Sorry but i doubt you or anyone else would ever master a character. Don't play as peach! She's even more overpowered in this game than before! Grr shes so cheap it's unbearable! First of all, you don't decide what characters people choose to play with. Second of all, by mastering a character, I mean learning to know that character's movement, weight, moves etc. so well that I know exactly where I'm going to hit with an attack or exactly when to press the jump button to catch a ledge. That's for me what mastering Smash is all about. Third of all, is Peach really that overpowered? Never heard anything about it before. I heard that Meta Knight was overpowered, but that it was possibly due to him being easy to use for beginners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 2, 2008 If this game was like rock, paper, scissor, Peach's down smash wins every other move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2008 I think I'll change my main character from Link to Sonic. Or Pit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2008 Just to think - in three weeks time we'll know all the playable characters in the game. I don't want the slow updates to end. This is probably ratardedly hopeful thinking, but I hope that GamesMaster Mag, Play.com and Gameplay are right with the release date... mmmm, i'm not sure. I'll be quite surprised if it wasn't released by end of March though...but Nintendo could make this a May 2008 title for Europe and release Wii Fit before it, i never be able to guess NOE'S way of thinking when it comes to release dates, there are VERY hit and miss as you know!

Posted January 2, 2008 He's a Smash Vet. He knows his stuff. He treats the sick Smash animals? (Sorry, couldn't resist.) It doesn't seem like Sakurai and his gang to do something "wrong" like overpowering a character. Why would they do that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 2, 2008 Well, Peach is definately annoying. Her killing aerials are quick and come out of nowhere. Also, she beats you up in the most humiliating and taunting ways possible. She always looks like she's having fun. And her b****-slaps... ...I know that's got nothing to do with skill or power, mind you. I just hate that goat. Also, I was the one that cracked Serebii's code: To all Smashboarders lurking to see if I leak anything...this is what we call speculation and not me trying to leak info.

I heard that Meta Knight was overpowered, but that it was possibly due to him being easy to use for beginners. I'm not decided who he plays as. To do that i'd need mind control which i won't be getting for a few more years atleast. And your definition of mastering is basically just a ignorant way of saying 'getting the basics' of a chracter right. And yes, she is VERY overpowered in Melee and so in Brawl. Granted, her down smash is no longer broken in this game but she's still probably more lethal than ever before. I mean firstly, the L-cancelling mechanic is now different (as in, ALL lag gets removed), so as soon as she lands after an aerial she will grab and possibly KO you. If you roll before the air attack hits she can just as easily use a dash attack on you during the roll lag and combo you. Peach has always been a beast. He treats the sick Smash animals? (Sorry, couldn't resist.) It doesn't seem like Sakurai and his gang to do something "wrong" like overpowering a character. Why would they do that? They don't do it deliberately. In every fighting game there are overpowered characters. Look at melee for example. Fox got given the best move in the game and the ability to chain it into an invincible chain of the same move (i'm referring to the Down+B here). Look at Marth; he has the best range in the game and gets a lethal smash attack too. If this game was like rock, paper, scissor, Peach's down smash wins every other move. You know your stuff. You can't even f*cking crouch cancel peach players because they just spam the d-smash and if it gets you, you can take up to 50%. *sigh* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2008 You're assuming Peach still has all the advantages she had in Melee, and I don't think that'll be the case. Sakurai will have noticed that Peach is overpowered, he seems very good in listening to the gamers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sakurai will have noticed that Peach is overpowered, he seems very good in listening to the gamers. Well from the hands-on impressions she's pretty much the same but with a weaker down-smash and a combo-friendly dash attack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 3, 2008 I'll definitely be playing this offline with friends. If the microcosm of "Master Players" here is evidence of wider arrogance, then I'll be avoiding online matches for the sake of my own enjoyment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 3, 2008 I'm confident some kind of ranking system will keep me in with players I have a chance against. I just hope the lag won't be too great, what with me playing in China and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
