Are you satisfied with 1.0's Melee System?

[Son Gokou]

How do you all feel about the Melee System in 1.0, and do you think 1.1 will be any different melee-wise?

 

[Lone Wolf]

We dont know what it would be like in 1.1, but theres an OUTLINE of Beta 1.1 in the Newbie Central section. PCJoe said it would be more advanced, and ping wouldnt be a big issue... But I'm not sure....
If you dont want to look for the outline, http://forum.esforces.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=20602 heres the thread. I'm not sure if its all right, but most of it should be..

 

[Son Gokou]

I see, but that outline isn't official though, so basically we're back where we started, not knowing what's finished and what's not.

 

[Lone Wolf]

There was an original, but I lost the link

 

[Son Gokou]

Oh, I see...it should be out soon though =/ VERY soon

 

[Zilea]

again, melee is too much of the game

 

[Sonic the Vampire]

Ok, I know the ups and downs of 1.1 melee and I assure you it isn't the same as 1.1 at all, aside from smashes. You'll have to just wait and play it yourself to find out what I mean. It is vastly improved.

 

[Cold Steel]

Are you a ****ing beta tester or something ,how would you know all these things.

 

[The Midget Mang]

im sure he has his ways

Bingo. I'm not dumb enough to spread the specifics around on the forums though. The release is close enough that you shouldn't have to flip out over it anyway.

Isn't Melee all about DBZ? I'd consider the blasts an add-on, it's mostly fighting if you really think about it

 

[Sonic the Vampire]

DBZ battles are crap. Nothing but blurry fighting, smashing, and an occational beam. Just because they are crap doesn't mean they can't be fun though. The 1.0 and 1.1 melee systems come closer to matching the show then any DBZ mod before ESF. If you disagree, you can go watch either of the Goku vs. Vegeta battles and see what I'm talking about.

Beams are not what DBZ is about. Beams are just an extension of the fighter's energy, like a big furry glowing punch of doom. They normally are just saved to finish people off, and they were never spammed (the signature moves anyway) like they are in ESF now. Maybe instead of spawn protection the team could put a lag between signature beams, so that you couldn't just charge up and fire another kame for something like ... say, 6 or 7 seconds. Sounds good to me.

 

[Son Gokou]

I understand, but the melee still r0x0r =/

 

[{SSJ}Master]

I like the current melee system, but the block countering is getting fixed, so it will be MUCH better in the next release, praise be to jah!

 

[Son Gokou]

yea the block>countering thread shows how many people hate it, heh

 

[SSjGohan12345]

i think they shud change meely to the alpha system

 

[imported_Kain]

no they shouldnt...
the meele in 1.0 is what gives it its speed without it ur just back at the start

 

[{SSJ}Master]

What was the melee in alpha??????

Was there no swooping or somethin?

 

[Pommy]

What is this? How would anyone know what the melee system is like when no one has played it. I don't get it.

 

[Zilea]

agreed
