Characters and costumes are all well and good but they need to address the glitches and balance. I wonder if SSM ever will.

I might actually buy some of the overpriced costumes and minions if they actually address all the stupid balance issues and glitches.

God, the web store makes this all so much easier to look through.

I'm probably going to do the Drake/Kat/Sackboy/Fat Princess costume pack and maybe a minion.

At those prices, the only costumes I'd be willing to purchase would be a classic Dante look or old man Heihachi with his T3/TTT/SCII pants.

Hey, if I buy any of the new costumes on Vita, does anyone know if I'll get them on PS3 as well? I know it works that way if I buy them on the PS3, but I don't know about the other way around...

Basically I'm traveling for work right now and want to get some of the costumes, but only if I'll be able to download them for the PS3 version when I get home without paying for them again.

It should work like the other things, when you buy it, you get ps3/vita versions added to your download list.

You could buy the PS3 version from the webstore and just download them for Vita while you're travelling.

The reason why I don't play on Ranked.
You'll still get rage quitters on Quick Match, but not as much. Mostly on Stock FFA.
Click to expand...

I wouldn't mind as much if i just lost out on the points that i would have won if the match ended regularly, but actually subtracting up to 15 of my points just because the other 3 happened to be a few belts below me is disheartening, especially when it happens a few times in one day. I should just stop giving a shit about unlocking titles. :/


Edit:

Aaaaaand guess what, another 10 points down the drain due to rage quitting.
I could have earned my first black belt by now.

Edit 2: A little off topic from my endless rants, saw some new skins earlier and that FP Ninja profile picture is absolutely hilarious. :)
Which reminds me, i've met quite a few notable Fat Princess players today, glad to see her being a bit more prominent. I should get back to my old Flame and improve my skills with her.

Can someone explain to me why this new update is 800+ MB? I don't have that kind if space on my Vita. This is not acceptable.
Click to expand...

Probably due to the next DLC characters being included in the patch like Kat and Emmett. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a stage in there too.

I bought the costume and minion packs. I'm supporting this game to the end. I'm currently downloading the patch, though. I still have 4 gigs free on my memory card, so I don't mind the patch size at the moment. I can always start deleting games I'm not playing.

New content looks good. Cant wait for the next batch of doc characters.

I'll buy all the characters/stages as a token of my support, but I'm waiting on collecting costumes for some kind of sale or bundle that sells them at a reasonable price. Already picked up my favorite minions (Kuro, Professor, Spectre, Sea Wasp) and will have no problem waiting for the "Super Duper" pack of those.

Do we know who has been releasing these minions? It would be nice to know if Santa Monica is actually picking up the reins with the intention of continually supporting this game.

Hmm... It's a busy time in PlayStation culture, so it could be something on PS4, Tearaway, etc.

Let's hope for All-Stars, though.
Click to expand...

I would be ecstatic if we got some sort of confirmation that All-Stars won't just be forgotten due to underwhelming initial sales. I want an eventual all stars 2 on PS4/Vita with a souped up Roster.

And yeah, with this file size there's no way that they haven't already included new characters, maybe even the Capture the flag mode that is supposedly coming?

Guys i think i know why patches are so big. DLC costumes are not costumes at all they are seperate characters. So this game has now 4 seperate Kratos and Parappa datas and the only diffrenence between them is that their models are different.

Unless minions are data monsters that is.

Last time we had a patch this big we got a map & two characters packed in, just so you know.

Yeah but we have gotten big patches many times. Infact im sure that if we will get DLC just before they release tthere is gonna be another patch.

I'll search patch history just incase if I am wrong.

Not to mention a second costume each for Kat and Emmett and a bunch of Minions. So yeah, I don't think it adds up. This patch has to have more than what was listed in the notes.

... that said, whatever the patches have added has been visible but locked until you download it from the PS Store. The same is true of the new Minions added with this patch. But there are no new character or stage images visible with this patch, so... I don't know. Maybe there really is nothing else. But that wouldn't make sense...

Kat and Emmett's alternate costumes weren't visible until today's update, even though they were included in the last patch. Going into Customize mode would only show their first two costumes.

Yeah, which is noteworthy. Did the Vita patch increase the game's overall footprint on the memory card substantially?

Basically: should we expect these two new characters to hit much quicker than Kat & Emmett did? Maybe we'll see new costumes next week that were stealth-added to this patch.

The midnight announcement on IGN was the All-Stars news Seth teased after all: Isaac, Zeus, and an Unfinished Swan/MediEvil crossover stage are coming March 19th!

Stoked as hell for the stage. Isaac and Zeus not so much, but what can you do?

EDIT: Beaten. Badly!

FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUU

Im mad because some really good 2nd represents from certain games cant be used because they are ingame stages and minions.

Also terrible 3rd party character.

ATLEAST the stage looks promising...

........WAIT A MINUTE. Now there is no excuse for not getting Snake! >:D

Ahwwwwwwww... I can't believe that was true! Such a random picking. Zeus looks like a fucking God though, makes sense. And Isaacs level 3 is insane.

That level is nice as well. Woohoo! More stuff!

Yeah... terrible character additions, honestly. Not excited in the least. But I adore The Unfinished Swan, so I can't wait for that stage!

Right, so if anyone was still doubting Mink... time to give that up!

So, Mink... your source said anything else lately? ;) Honestly, given how long ago he/she teased Ryu Hayabusa, I'm surprised Isaac and Zeus were revealed first.

They continue to miss the boat on this game... the characters are not awful, but you have to add relevant well known characters, these do nothing for the game. On top of this the patch they released did not fix ANY of the issues people have been complaining about, did not touch the balancing issues, and now for whatever reason I can't even connect to an online game.

Yea Mink give us more. Since you took the joys of an announcement from us, you have to announce something else in replace.

So, it seems like the trophy will be; Do Sir Daniels level 3 on this stage. Same with Nariko on the Heavenly Sword stage... is there any other character without a trophy for a stage super? That would be a good bet for what is next stage wise.

Eh, it's not entirely in their hands. I'm sure you'd see everything if they could... licensing is such a bitch in the industry, you have NO idea. But yea, perhaps they could of worked a deal with someone else or made this pack a 'DOUBLE DIP VILLAIN PACK' from games already featured. Like Zeus and Carmelita.

I want Spector and Dr.Nefarious(/Captain Qwark would also be ok) ASAP. Who cares if they are on stages the game is screwed enough so nobody cares.

Oh and Zeus is fast AP gainer? OH GEEZ WE DONT HAVE ANY OF THOSE YET, HU?

OH MY GOD THAT IGN VIDEO IS SCARY. ZEUS CAN GET 60 AP PER A SINGLE HIT IF ITS CHARGED??!?!?!?!??!

Sorry, Mink. I still don't believe. Mostly because you've been wrong before. Also it means we get another completely unrelated to playstation character by the name of Ryu Hayabusa. And thats unacceptable!
