Rehab Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 God damn is it boring playing this thing without anybody else to play, trying to stop sucking with Marth and Sheik and Jigglypuff and Falco and people in this game. Fuck short hopping. Fuck applying wavedashing to real life. Fuck my amazingly bad reaction time. But most of all, fffffffffuuuuuuck trying to control Fox, that nonsense is still impossible after 7 years of trying half heartedly. Crouch canceling, dash canceling whatever the hell is amazing unfortunately. I wish I had people to play this stupid, great game with.

HowAreYaBud Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yeah, Melee is pretty boring with no one to play with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Judy Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I don't really mind if I play on my own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowAreYaBud Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Well I used to play it alone. A LOT. So I guess I just got bored of playing by myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) I actually love it. It's just that it's laaame alone, in the end. Edited November 10, 2008 by Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiba Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 if I could mac, I would play with you. I prefer melee over brawl anyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) I play melee with my crew, the Originals (Boss, Korn, Chaos Knight), H2YL (Chu Dat, Azen, Chillindude829) and pretty much most of MD/VA ^_^. I used to be part of team Arlington which was gigantic and amazing back in the day. Edited November 11, 2008 by Rei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Changed by VASM :( Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Play Brawl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kintenbo Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I can never really become grand at Melee since the only person I usually can go against is my brother. However, it usually winds up me whooping him big time and he gets all "RAAAGGGE". There's folks that at school that I've played against, but I usually whoop them too. I can't find any real competition, though. I still need to learn how to Wave Dash..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) Play Brawl. I play both. I enjoy both. I grew up on Melee, though I've never been so good as decent at it, and (excuses etc) have only recently gotten into a truly competitive frame of mind about it, or any game. I've put more time and enjoyment into Melee than any other game I've played, I'll bet, and it seems silly to just forget about it when the real possibilities have only just opened themselves up to me and the real fun is just starting (if only I could frikkin play somebody). So far it seems like wavelanding+dash dancing>>>>>wavedashing for spacing purposes and all, but I'm not one to offer empirical judgment or nothing, and I've gotten a chance to test this stuff on approximately no one. Adam dun like Melee. >:{ Edited November 11, 2008 by Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom103 Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 I play both, more brawl though, I only play melee with ADHD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Mac, what area do you live in? And really for Wavedashing or dash dancing. You don't spam wavedash. You only use it when you want to try to trick your opponents Dash dance can do the same thing, but it's good for spacing grabs as well. Everything is situational.

Meteor Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I much prefer Melee to Brawl. Probably because I don't feel like learning a new game. Learning shorthopping, wavedashing, etc. isn't all that hard alone in my experience. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 It took me some time to get into Brawl, but now I prefer it to Melee. I can still play melee, but my skills have greatly gone downhill on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 (edited) No experience of technical application above ignorant level (used against actual people)=no useful knowledge/experience concerning practical application=bad assessments of how to use stuff. Also but it's good for spacing grabs as well. Exactly, I like that since Marth is the best character in this game. It's easier to practice knowing how to pull off stuff than not being dumb with stuff when playing alone. Learning to actually put stuff into practice after years of not doing stuff where it counts is more difficult than just going "would you look at that I aerodoged diagonally into the ground with marth." I live in Maryland, so I know it's really really not like the games don't exist where I am. I just don't know people into them. Is high school age too young or old or something to get into Melee "seriously?" Edited November 17, 2008 by Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Why not play Melee? I play all the time, that is on weekends of course, don't just give Melee because Brawl came out, and Melee has other characters that Brawl doesn't have(I'm not complaining though).
