Ajax Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Ah yes brawl+ i've been thinking about having a go at that to see how things have changed/improved. Might even be able to get my brother to play it again due to that no random tripping code. Quote
Bleck Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 what is brawl+ some tourneyfag nonsense I assume Quote
SoloGamer Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 what is brawl+some tourneyfag nonsense I assume A set of codes for Ocarina (cheat program for the Wii) to make brawl more competitive, so yeah tourneyfag nonesense http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=213744 Quote
Bleck Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 oh hey this actually doesn't sound too bad I'm all for no tripping and no more OOPS DID YOU PRESS DAIR NO WELL YOU BAD YOU'RE DEAD NOW Quote
Native Jovian Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 This game is hard to take seriously. Why would you ever want to take video games seriously. Quote

Might even be able to get my brother to play it again due to that no random tripping code. if you have the means to enable brawl+ you can just turn off tripping anyway. that is to say, you can take out tripping in REGULAR brawl with the right codes. i have two codesets: one for brawl (which basically only eliminates tripping, removes the replay time limit and such) and the codeset for B+ yes, falcon is overpowered, but it's only because with the hitstun in the game (which is a bit too high right now and it makes combos too easy, they're working on it now), falcon can follow up on absolutely any move he puts out. they spent a lot of time making him better, i'd imagine. the knee is back to the way it was long ago, as is rest. rest makes me really happy, since i played jiggly in melee. his priority is still balls, but that doesn't matter any when you're as absurdly fast as he is.

SpanishFly Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Hm, I haven't heard of Brawl+, and I play Brawl in the Ontario Smash scene, lol... And yeah, there's nothing wrong with playing games competitively, at least in my mind. Although, even though I'll do smaller bi-weeklies and sometimes tournanments and stuff, my main goal's still just to have fun. Mind you, it's a lot more fun to win than it is to lose . Quote

cobaltstarfire Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 It's possible to play competitively without taking it seriously. Well for some people anyway... Quote
Thalzon Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Why would you ever want to turn video games into a job. "Do what you love for a living and you'll never work a day in your life." Not saying I agree with all this ridiculous tourney competitiveness crap over a party game, but, y'know... To each their own. Quote
Bigfoot Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Why would you ever want to turn video games into a job. Who said it was a job? What do you think this is, MLG? That's a little too seriously. What I meant by my initial post, is when I'm playing, I really couldn't care who wins/loses. Quote
defender!! Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 It's possible to play competitively without taking it seriously.Well for some people anyway... my friends and i are like this. we play 1v1, no items, fox only and on neutral stages, but we don't have the time, money or desire to go to every single tournament in the smash scene. there are some people that literally dedicate their lives to it and i just...can't see how. i have school, a job and a girlfriend who all take precedence, these guys are going to tourneys literally every single weekend. we go to tourneys every once in a while, about two or three a year. i place alright at most of them (33 out of about 100, 3rd in my pool which had fucking MEW2KING and KORN and K-9 in it) but i just can't put any more time or energy into it than i already am, you know? i play other games. i don't just wanna play smash for the rest of my life.

sefirosu Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Why would you ever want to turn video games into a job. I hear Professional VG testers get payed some good money just for playing and critically reviewing Video Games. Sounds like a dream-job to me! And I agree with Thalzon's quote- "Do what you love for a living and you'll never work a day in your life." Quote

Maybe like if you consider $9-12/hr (though $12 is incredibly rare) good then I guess so yea. So uh are people still playing online or what? Arek and I haven't played anyone from here in awhile.

defender!! Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 i'll play a few sets with you, but don't expect a lot. i've only played online once or twice and play offline A TON, so i might take a minute to get used to it. and even then i'll probably be awful FC is 1478 4178 5050 7126 Quote
cobaltstarfire Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I'll play with someone...in a month or two once I'm out of school. I finally have a tv to keep in my own room, so it's a lot easier to catch people online with aim or something without having to actually get logged onto smash bros. Quote
Salluz Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 If anyone wants to play me, I might be on @ 10 PM Eastern time today and tomorrow. The code's in my sig (duh). Quote
Thalzon Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 "If you want to enjoy the soup, stay out of the kitchen." True, in a sense. But not for playing games professionally. That's more for making games and being a designer. Designing videogames takes some of the magic of the medium right out, but that's true with anything. Playing games professionally is more like glurging yourself on the soup and drinking every last drop of it. Quote

Try reading the next few words. "[...] just for playing and critically reviewing video games" Now if it was construction work or something strenuous that's a different story but playing video games and making money doing... I'd take whatever pay they give me! Playing Games professionally is more like glurging yourself on the soup and drinking every last drop of it. Couldn't've said it better myself! Quote
