User:Ac2k/Changes for SSB4

A list of changes I'd like to see for the next Smash Bros. game.

General

• Keep all characters, and declone the semi-clones.
• Tether recoveries should not be able to be used until three seconds after grabbing the ledge, and no edge grab limit.
• Characters with tether grabs should be able to use their respective grabs as tether recoveries.
• Remove random tripping, but keep tripping in attacks (banana peels, etc.)
• Characters should not sink downwards in water unless in hitstun. (To prevent stalling using moves like Mr. GW's down aerial)
• Characters should lose all invincibility after letting go of a ledge.
• Allow stages from all three previous games to return (like the Mario Kart series).
• CPUs should never self-destruct when using a move on stage (Level 1 Yoshi using Egg Roll, Landmaster, etc.)
• Star/Screen KOs should grant the point for KOing as soon as the animation begins.
• Remove all infinite/0-death chain grabs/grab releases.
• All characters should have the exact same grab release animations (Wario, Ness/Lucas).
• Remove all stage sections that hinder certain characters' recovery (Frigate Orpheon, Green Hill Zone, etc.)
• Characters should be able to tech out of jab lock-type hits.
• Remove Faux Super Armor.
• The initiator of a grab-based Sacrificial KO move should win when both players are at one stock.
• Characters should receive 6% instead of 3% when hit out of a throw.
• Rapidly tapping the attack button should not continue a rapid jab.
• Tapping downwards on the smash stick on Classic Controller should not initiate a fast fall down aerial.
• Perform sliding down smashes and DACDS.

Single Player Mode

• All characters should have unique target smash levels with no items.
• Remove explosive items from Multi-Man Mode.
• Remove all alternative storylines in the next Adventure Mode.
• Sandbag should be grabable in Home Run Contest.
• In Home Run Contest, a barrier protecting the bag from flying to the left should

Multiplayer Mode

• Allow stocked stamina battles (once a character runs out of HP, they should disappear and respawn on the platform).
• Improve Spectator Mode on Wifi.
• Allow people to have friend requests and block players on With Anyone.
• Allow replays over three minutes long to be saved.
• Rotation should be able to be used for less than four controllers.

• Only neutral attack and dash attack should throw Waddle Dees.
• Waddle Dees should be unable to be eaten.
