Polantaris Wrote:It appears your Display Name is your 3DS's Mii name (To be honest, I forget if you can even change that after it's registered, I've never really cared for Miis). It doesn't appear to have a setting to change your display name, but I also haven't looked into it too much. If you can change your set up Mii with your account, changing that will likely change your display name in game, but there doesn't appear to be the option in game.

Is Jungle Japes that terrible 3 platform map with the river at the bottom? I don't know how that map is still in the game, and I'm pretty adamant against that map. I vote for it to be banned .-.

Locked Wrote:I'm not against the idea of banning it per se. I'd need more experience with the full game in my hands to fully make that decision. For all I know, the stages with a question mark are worse than I've seen them on stream and they'd all get banned. Gentleman's rule is still in place obv.

Mazz Wrote:I'm not sure how much of an issue it'll be (I've heard the online for this is pretty good) but it might be worth considering grouping people according to location, if nothing else at least for the initial matches. I'm not sure if there'll be enough participants to make it really worthwhile though. I'm mostly just worried about causing a laggy match for whoever I'm supposed to be fighting, since most people are going to be from the US and I'm ~4000 miles away. Dunno how the internet is at my student house for this year either ;_;

Polantaris Wrote:When I was playing online randomly, it was about 50/50 for a laggy match compared to a normal match; but that was also a 4p FFA, and if everyone is all over the place in the world I would imagine it would cause more lag. However, when I did a 1v1 with my friend (who lives on the opposite side of the US from me), the match was literally flawless. There was no noticeable input delay, it felt like we were in the same room.

So when dealing with 1v1 matches, it may solely depend on how well each of your connections are.

A couple of things.

I'm still missing Justin;'s and Untradeable;'s info.
I was watching the Smash 4 Direct again and noticed that you can set up the rules for 'friends' matches however you'd like. This means that custom moves could be allowed so I'm adding that to the rules.
