[Wii] Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Ver. 214. Gobble Gobble Gobble, Slurp Slurp Slurp

Well, luckily, there's not much...well, CHALLENGE to these challenges, cept maybe Boss Battles on Hard and above. Everything else is either tedious and boring as fuck, like the homerun stuff, 100 man melee/target smashes/complete things with all characters, can be powered through easily enough with plenty of coins if you're not very good, like the beat All Star/Classic on Intense, or just takes time grinding, like the get all music or 100 hours of BS stuff.

In fact, all I've got left are the tedius ones of "do it with all characters" for the various events, "collect all CDs", "100 hours of brawls", and boss battles on Hard and up. Probably won't go for boss battles with everyone, even on easy, it would be annoying to do with some characters. (Here's lookin at you, Olimar.)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, that's sarcasm. It's basically a commentary on the constantly worsening state of this thread.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I've added about a dozen people from here, but the only people who have actually been confirmed on that list are Miles, Mo0, Iwata, and Starman. Everyone else is still awaiting confirmation.

Seems like the same issue Sacred X was having earlier.

It IS true that I do not like the online implementation of this game at ALL, and it's entirely shithouse to have to deal with, but I am still looking for that damn switch I need at a reasonable fucking price before I go wired, so it's not like you should expect to see me on very often. I'll play extremely rarely. You won't see me much. If you think that's a reason enough to nix me from the list, then go for it. Open up more slots for you folks who will play more often.

I will remove and re-add some folks tomorrow. Perhaps that will solve the problem.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I meant it more from a perspective of entering the numbers wrong, I'm mildly dyslexic and very easily could have entered the Wii number incorrectly without noticing it. I'll re-add people and cycle the numbers through anyway and double confirm I did it right.

I'll leave myself connected to the old buttfuck connection though just to be sure, though. Thanks for the tip.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Good to know, it must be just a case of not being on at the same time as the other person then. =D

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I laugh at anyone who says this is Nintendo trying their "best". Are you for real? If this is the best they can do, I weep openly for their future projects.

I thought it was fairly obvious that when those people who know how to set up thier home network and were STILL HAVING PROBLEMS that it was not them at fault here.

How far up your own ass is your head lodged in order to think that it's the end user with the problem instead of the product, here? How devoted are some people to a developer or franchise to totally absolve it of any potential blame in a situation such as this?

I honestly thought we had come to the conclusion that the implementation of the online was complete garbage by now. Are you telling me there are still fanfag retards in this thread who think it's JUST the fault of someone's router? On a forum full of nerds, with many complaining of lingering lag, do you really think they are all incapable of optimizing their setup? Are you JOKING?

The game is P2P, people. Just a protip.

FELIPE NO

This.

There are many games on Live that are unplayable due to horrific online implementations, such as Lumines, N+ and the recently released Mr. Driller Online. So this isn't a phenominon centered around Nintendo only.

It's silly that they are slapping these things together and using the online as a selling feature and just shitting it out the door in this state.

This is pretty much wrong. It's NOT free. It's a feature in a game you PAID for. In some people's cases, it was one of the reasons they bought the game, and to have it not function properly is not a-ok because there isn't an ancillary cost tacked on to the service.

I was kidding about changing ISP because so far I haven't heard a complaint from people in Japan.

The game's network performance was probably tested on Japan's far-superior-to-ours infrastructure. Obviously it would need to be optimized for a slower average network in order to run better over on this side of the pond. That probably wasn't done.

Just wait until Mario Kart Wii officially release in your country and play the game online. 12 player with anybody around the world and you'll experience little to no lag.

Bold words, you willing to back that up with something?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I never once said it wouldn't, but just because it very easily could NOT have shipped with online doesn't mean that it's current implementation is acceptable. "He said it was difficult, so it's ok if he failed miserably!" Strange how this is deemed acceptable.

Do people really think of this shit as nothing more than a free bonus? When I buy a car, am I only paying for an engine and a drivetrain? Everything else is a free bonus! Oh, who cares if the upholstry is ripped and the suspension is shot. They weren't part of what I paid for! The manufacturer told me they weren't so good with leather, so the seats are all mangled. Oh well.

Do people just skim through my post or something?

Did you?

As for lags? Well there's always lag... but it isn't the same kind of lag that you'll get from a certant "fighting" game because of it's nature. So my online experience was "lag-free".

There's a large difference between "lag free" and "no discernable lag", or even "no lag that affects the gameplay as much". But yes, It's great that you're claiming it's a flawed and a perfect implementation in the same sentence.

I know what you're trying to say with it, and I'm not sure if you're just having trouble expressing it, but I get the gist of it. Maybe relatively lag-free, let's go with that.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

BigCN, if you honestly think this is more the fault of the service provider or bandwidth one has allocated, you're beyond stupid. You've entered into a realm of impossibly frightening retardation that borders on the type Slayer X was showing before he got himself banned from here. For someone who seems to harp on other people not knowing what they are speaking of, you certainly trip all over yourself a lot.

Since there's clearly no arguing with a fanboy moron such as yourself, I'll let the topic drop. I clearly can't make you think that this isn't acceptable. You seem to be happy with being shit on, so I'll leave you be.

However, this should be taken as a warning for everyone in general, as I'm just going to reinforce something that should have been apparent recently.

Making up shit and spurting it out is not going to work to anyone's favour. It didn't work for Lix, it didn't work for Slayer, and it won't work for you. All it ends up with in the end is thread and forum bans. Why this thread generates the worst of the fucking worst on this forum is beyond me. I should close it. Give me a reason not to, folks.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
