Sorual 607 Posted January 3, 2015 But then that other Pac-Man will get screwed cuz the other pac-man can manipulate that to cheaply screw a pac-man out of his recovery i dont think thats the case. when pacman uses his recovery, i think he only depends on the 1 bounce he gets from the startup of the move. i dont think any pacman player repedidly bounces on his own trampoline to get back up because that does not get u up. it just leaves u bouncing in 1 place and vulnerable. the reason the trampoline stays there is for other players to use. not for the same pacman who created it to use. the pacman who created it only benefits from the first bounce to get back up.

Hero of Winds 2,576 Posted January 3, 2015 Pointless back and forth conversation... Verdict: No patch needed. The exploit isn't even broken because you can EASILY stop them from doing it. It's not Pac-man's fault so he doesn't need a fix (especially since he's pretty bad as is). Plus, the longer it's used, the more often it's recognized, meaning Pac-man teams that use the exploit (it only works in teams) get banned for it. By the way, if you're gonna do For Glory, just do 1v1s. That's all that matters in For Glory anyway. I play For Fun, personally. 1 Dio Brando reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dio Brando 5,810 Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) Also someone has ALREADY found a way to beat this exploit See? IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE and it doesn't need to be patched to begin with Edited January 4, 2015 by Smash Mega Koopa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kyouma-Blade 90 Posted January 4, 2015 Also someone has ALREADY found a way to beat this exploit See? IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE and it doesn't need to be patched to begin with The point isn't if it's beatable. The point is if it makes the game impossible to play if pulled off correctly. Sakurai will patch things with the casuals in mind. He will probably patch this if he thinks it will ruin online. Since the average casual would never know about this, they wouldn't know how to counter this strategy. Therefore, it ruins the game. In the eyes of casuals, this is game breaking. You won't see what the opponent picked until it's too late and the match started. So they can't even counter with R.O.B. if they knew about it. And I'm sure as hell not going to rematch them just to try and beat them at that exploit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banning is a thing y'know,you can't tell me a match won with SDs and zero points gained isn't suspicious in the slightest.You can easily report a player using the exploit and he'll get the banhammer Again tell me what other possible way to patch it without screwing the character of Pac-Man over?I seriously wanna hear a way Exploits exists in every game like the infinite combos in most Mortal Kombat games.......these things are hard work around while patching especially if you wanna keep the character intact without ruining it.

Sure you can ask for a ban, but I'm near positive it won't permanently ban them, if they even ban them at all. Others will keep using the strategy, and it will keep happening. Thinking of a way to patch Pac-Man isn't my problem. If Sakurai decides it's a bad thing, he will patch it the way he decides to. He could even just turn on team attack online and the problem will be solved. 1 Sorual reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I didn't say that you should patch it,I just wanted to hear your idea I never said it's a good thing,but I can't honestly think of a way outside of outright removing Pac-Man's Up B which will be stupid Also,it took people 3 months to discover that about Pac-Man despite the 3DS version being out for three months now?

Speed Shulk works great with this too. Someone with a counter will work good too, but i think you'd rather need a fast char. for this match up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(at least from I've seen time and time again playing against Captain Falcon) This right here. Captain Falcon has some of the laggiest moves in Sm4sh. If he whiffs, you punish him hard. I'm actually kind of salty how laggy his moves are in this game. Legend has it Captain Falcon is still landing after he missed a knee. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reyn 1,755 Posted January 16, 2015 So, anyone hyped up for the new Amiibo coming out? : 3 IDK if im getting Robin and Lucina yet (although, again, they dont look all that good, given they're realistic looking characters, but i can deal), definitely wanna get Charizard and possibly Ness (both look great given they're more cartoon like), and Pac-Man and Wario...Not really interested, sorry. Also is it just me, or does the Bowser amiibo under the Super Mario Series kind of look a bit better than Smash Bros. Bowser? I like both, but i think the new one makes him look better TBH.

Yeah, i don't blame you. It's pretty freaking bad. I mean, the only Amiibo that i wanted out of Wave 1 or 2 was Fox honestly, and he got discontinued. I don't wanna import him/buy him online when it should be reasonable enough to buy him at a freaking store. -__- Whenever they come out (i hear Wave 3's coming out around the 19th or so), im going to try to grab the ones i want (Shulk, Bowser, Lucario) day 1 if they're in stock. If not, then i will be a bit annoyed, but i'll get over it. 1 Shulk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OmegaForte 1,674 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Probably Lucina, but of course they have to mess up somewhere, and happens to be the worst place to; the face. I think the eyes looking like doll faces is the issue. Guess if I do buy her, it's for the functions, again. >_> Oh well. At least I already have the figma for preorder.
