Super Smash Bros. for Wii U: new update available, 15 additional 8-player stages
- Thread starter L~A
- Start date
I find this hilarious. Aura needs a small nerf anyway.
For a game like Smash, I don't think it's crazy since LAN is full duplex. (It's not just about transfer speed, it's about the ability to receive and send simultaneously.)

But seriously, people are going on too much on Diddy. He's really not that broken. He's certainly top tier, but he isn't Meta Knight/Snake tier worthy (yes, I'm going by early Brawl meta here)
actually, there are metal mini bosses. They'll sometimes challenge you when you're about to start a match with another fighter. They'll come in, kick them out and you'll fight a metal version of a character

Maybe I'm an old man, but I did grow with structurated fights, like fight 1-6 battles with normal fighters, mini boss battle just before the final boss, and final boss, Classic in Smash mode is so random to my taste.
Yea I'm not giving them money for fucking up...
Outside of Smash it's not an issue since none of the other Wii U games I'm interested in have online. I'll just play only when I have friends over.

Yooooooo this is great me and my group of friends usually got tired of playing the same stages in 8-player Smash after awhile because of the small selection
Gonna take more than a day to figure out if there's any character changes.
There's clearly a variable in there that turns it on/off in the code, since no-hazard mode shows for new challengers. The tricky thing is nobody likes to switch between more than two "modes" with a single button -- guess they could make Z or some other button the input for no hazard mode.

Old replays are not disabled, so there are none.
There are 3rd party LAN Adapters, though I can't vouch for their quality.

I've found another fix. (Unless mine was glitched before) Notifications now only sparkles on the main menu when there is a new notification. I asked them to fix this in a CN survey, so thanks Nintendo!

I don't expect a balance patch until Mewtwo launches. I just don't think it'd make much sense to do one before then.
I say this in my sleep.
Why? They pretty fit already.
Tho yeah...their weird hitboxes make fighting certain characters a pain.
Crap post. For someone that plays 4-8 player mode almost exclusively, this is fantastic news. I had no idea Nintendo was planning on patching stuff like this in so this is an incredibly welcome surprise.

This update gives me hope that Nintendo is going to be adding in more features and improving on things already present in future patches.

People hate 8-player Smash?
News to me.
The biggest issue was lack of stages. That's been addressed.

Well, they are adding the online tournament system and player rooms, as well as the Miiverse stage. Development must be fairly active besides just working on Mewtwo.
It's too chaotic IMO. I don't hate that it exists, but I do hate how it ruined classic mode.

For people who kept asking about characters nerf/buff,
There are no changes in characters because if they did then our replay wouldn't work anymore.

Classic mode's already ruined by having all items on at all times, imo.
My new best friend, I try to avoid 8 players in Classic as a plague, my main being projectile based character is always on the lost in this mode.

Sir!
That wouldn't really be classic mode then, would it?

That list of changes to the 8-player variants of stages just pisses me off because those should be normal options in every mode.
Pyrosphere without Ridley would be heavenly, but I can't stand eight player and I'm not killing off six people at the beginning of a match or whatever just to get to it.

Yeah, I just didn't think they'd work on things that hadn't been mentioned.
If they're actively listening to people about their issues with the game and they fix and add some things, then it'd be great.
Hoping we can get some more options to Stage Builder and perhaps a stage hazard toggle.

Classic mode is a bad joke in Smash 4. I still wonder how could so little effort have been put in it. Say what you what, classic/arcade/whatever you call it, single player mode should still be a great focus in the making of any fighting game. Not that it should be something that complicated, Sakurai had already nailed it in Melee. In Smash 4, it's just not fun at all, however that's possible, that's it.

Do agree Stage Builder needs options and objects. One of my number 1 requests.

I'm glad that they're adding on to 8-player Smash, I hope that eventually we can play on every stage with 8 players!
I also hope that eventually they add a hazard toggle, since there's obviously one already coded. I wanna use Wily Castle as a counterpick, dammit!

Wow I didn't know this, his Aura increases just from other characters dying? His aura scares me lol
But it becomes classic mode after 4 people die. I like how it tests your ability to survive all flavors of Smash--chaotic, to less chaotic, to 1 v. 1. To each their own though.
Or make it one of the settings, like an item menu or random stage toggle. Just check ahead of time which stages you want hazards for and which you don't.

I just remembered. The boxing ring stage lacks 8-player smash. Surprised that it didn't get chosen this time.
Limits?

Or just forward smash with anyone who isn't pac-man/sheik/villager in a large crowd and kill all 7 of them in one hit like any level of classic lower than 6.
The AI in 8 player Smash in Classic is just pathetic. Most of the time they just stand there. The hardest fights are the 1:1's because the AI scales accordingly and is actually challenging.
