You guys have me wrong. I don't think it's a bad thing, and I really do love the project. I just wanted to hear other people's opinions on it, because that's something that I would feel might be discouraging to the lazy and moronic general public.
By all means, I don't think Brawl Vault is useless. I enjoy browsing through it and seeing wonderful hacks from well-known users and lesser-known ones. It's exciting and convenient for everything to be in one place.
All I'm suggesting is that if you find a download link for something on a specific site, a Mediafire link might be just a tiny bit more convenient. (Not that I'm going to just for that minor convenience.)
I really do appreciate the opinions, though. They've given me some perspective instead of just my own, so now I can process things more.
Also, Wolfric, I will always upload to Brawl Vault, even if I decide to post a Mediafire link instead. I really do love the project, so it's not something I'd so easily forget about. Oizen, I mean random as in just searching for things to add to your SD card with nothing in particular in mind, but maybe for a certain stage or something similar.
Everyone knows what a huge success Brawl Vault has been in unifying the hacking community. Nearly every download link I've seen lately has linked to Brawl Vault. That's mind boggling, considering how much this community has grown during the past few years.
Now, although Brawl Vault is an amazing and wonderful project, I can't help but wonder.. Is the Brawl Vault download link discouraging? For example, if I posted a download link on Elite Smash Hackers using Brawl Vault, I have a feeling it would get less downloads than if I just posted a download link to Mediafire. Let's face the facts; Brawl Vault isn't very convenient. It's mainly for people searching for random hacks (much like the KC-MM gallery was). I feel that if I post a download link, Mediafire would be the way to go. It's much faster to just click on Mediafire than going to Brawl Vaunt THEN Mediafire.
I think that this is worth discussing.. I just feel like this is an upgraded KC-MM gallery that everyone links their stuff to.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but the teleporting looks similar (almost exactly the same as) what me and PI2 had in our PSA. Did Sylvo have something similar or possibly use our teleporting?
Edit: after a closer look at the vids and the description, I have decided to give this character a chance. as he appears to have a much better chance at winning than my current marth psa. MINDGAMESFTW!
Thanks for giving it a try. Also, you should take notice that the cloak tends to work better on human players. CPUs seem to have no trouble finding you while you're in it. o.o
This PSA is pretty neato, I do have a few suggestions though. (Played on Brawl+) •Grounded Down-B: This move is ridiculously good if you can use it well, great combo ender and pushes you well out of the way to prevent most punishment. I suggest a whiff animation if he misses the attack, allowing it to be countered. Or reduce the damage on it, 19% is a bit much. •Up-Tilt: Neato, but seems out of place. Could use a hitbox near the beginning of the animation. •Aerial Side B: Simply feels like it should do something. Possibly make it cancellable with Aerial Down-B? Or make a strike at the end of the dash that ends with helpless falling. •Down-Tilt: Seems a tad out of place, hitbox is weird as well.
Also a general suggestion, I think you're underestimating the power of Neutral-B, in the right hands this could rock people left and right. You may need to compensate for this by making him lighter or weaker in general. Fighting a ghost isn't an easy thing to do. I also had a thought where you could have a subtle smoke effect during the vanished phase, but that kinda ruins the point.
Aside from the aforementioned, I'm loving this PSA. It doesn't seem ridiculously overpowered or over-the-top. It almost feels like he belongs in this game, which is what people should be aiming for. Keep up the great work, and I'm looking forward to your future projects.
I'll take all of this into consideration, although we have recently made him lighter and given him more gravity and control in the air. D-Tilt actually has a use now, by the way. Thanks for the feedback! Also, about the U-Tilt hit box, we purposely left out a frontal hit box to give a weak point, although I did argue that there should be a little knockback.
earlier he argued that is was original. I was stating that it wasn't. also: I wasn't really giving TRUE feedback, I was kinda mad that he essentiall called me a complete moron based on a three letter post. actually, I'm pissed at the way most of this community has treated me.
I wasn't aiming for it to be original, but it did turn out that way. It was just meant to be fun to use, and it has a unique playing style. Saying that a base character is unoriginal is idiotic. It's what you MAKE of the character that counts, not what character it's started on. Keep that in mind. Anything else that needs to be said has been said by DistortGiygas. Take that into consideration when browsing these forums.
You should give credit to Untouch on the Up-Tilt I can tell you used some of his properties for it. Excuse me if I`m wrong.
Actually, we didn't, although they're fairly similar to his. I guess I should give him credit, but seeing as we didn't directly copy it or even look at it is something different.
Wow, it just goes to show how inept the hacking community has become. Have people really forgotten how to give real feedback? Or maybe I shouldn't compare the rest of the community with you. Maybe I'm being ignorant and giving you too much credit to be on their level.
Awesome, Lexx! I`m LuigiFan104, and I have just made anew PSA for Ike, the other ones are cheap, called SunBlade, He should be out when I get the time. Whats your WIFI code :3.
Mines: 4081-5353-2605 Would love to PSA Battle you.
Too many marths psa's. Be an original, make a wario, or mr. game and watch, or PT, Shoot, even olimar needs a psa.
Wow. Original? This is original. Screw you, if you want a PSA like that, make it yourself. Also, PT has a corrupt PAC file, so it can't be made. God damn, people are so ungrateful.
Jab – A quick jab at the opponent, great for keeping distance, possibly another jab to follow up. F-Tilt – A quick sideways hit. Good for distance, not much else. D-Tilt – Semi-Spike, not much else. Not much use. U-Tilt – A teleporting move, good for hitting opponents above you, has some juggling abilities. Vulnerable from the front. F-Smash – Unchanged. D-Smash – Unchanged. U-Smash – Powerful upward swipe. Up-B – Recovery, faster with added aura. Side-B (Air) – Dashes quickly to the side. Side-B (Grounded) – First hit stuns, hold b for a quick strike. Useful for edge-guarding. Neutral-B – Turns Marf invisible. Great for mindgames. Down-B (Air) – Shoot downward towards the ground, or your death. Only use over the stage. Down-B (Grounded) – Wave dash F-Smash. VERY useful. All air-A moves are unchanged.
Assassin is meant to utilize spacing options and mindgames. With the air cloak, combined with the use of several other moves, Assassin can be deadly. There are many ways to play Assassin, but it depends on your opponent or personal use of him. Enjoy.
