User:Nyargleblargle/Smash 5 Ideas

A list of ideas I have for the next Smash game. Keep in mind that none of this has been confirmed, and indeed, no Smash 5 has been announced yet.

Fighters

• Attacks now have individual hitstun multipliers.
• Meteor smashes now bury grounded opponents.
• DI returns, but combined with a less extreme version of vectoring.
• L-canceling returns, having a 20-frame input window but only canceling 25% of the animation, to avoid a skill gap.
• Characters now fall more slowly against a wall, having a special pose.
• Characters may now have three unique custom moves for specific inputs. For further information on general changes to custom specials, see the Modes section.

Modes

Special Smash

• Different teams and players can be given unique properties.
• Camera can be set to be upside-down or behind players.

Character Customization

• Custom special moves are now available from the beginning of the game.
• Most characters can now mix and match between up to two of four variations per move, or in some cases. Moves that have "opposite" effects can not be combined.
  • In the case that a character has three unique specials to an input, each special will only have two variations with "opposite" effects.
• Equipment has been removed in favor of a strengths and weaknesses system, where players can select up to three buffs to their character (i.e. more speed, weight) and three nerfs (i.e. reduced power, jump height), which can be "stacked" like equipment effects. The number of buffs and nerfs must be equal.
• A "quick" mode of customization has been added from the CSS, where players can select one variation per custom special move.

Costume Creator

A new mode that allows players to create their own alternate costumes. Players start out by choosing an existing costume as a base. They can then create palette swaps that allow them to replace identical colors uniformly. Advanced options include modifying the shading of a costume and altering more minute details, such as eye color or stitches. Players can save up to four costumes per character. These costumes do not appear With Anyone online.

Classic

• Now works similarly to how it does in Brawl, but with a single-path map shown between matches and the difficulty system of Smash 4.

Master Core

• Final form on 8.5 difficulty or higher is now Shadow Tabuu, with most of the same attacks as the namesake had in Brawl.

Training

• Speed can be adjusted in intervals of 0.1x from 0.5x to 2x.
• If the right control stick is pressed, the entire UI will be hidden and the camera will be able to be adjusted with the right control stick.

Special Orders

• AI levels of metal and giant opponents increase slightly more rapidly.

Master Orders

• Orders can be set to Stock-only.

Crazy Orders

• More damage is healed between rounds.
• Regular AI opponents don't spawn until round 15z

Online

With Anyone

• Players are now able to see the character their opponent(s) are selecting.
• Custom specials allowed.

Action Blitz

• A new mode, designed to be a combination of Smash Run and Classic Mode.
• The first portion involves fighting enemies from a specific universe on a stage from that universe (ie Mario enemies are fought on Mario stages).
  • Defeating enemies grants the player access to uses of Powers.
• The second portion involves one randomly-generated round of Classic Mode. Stat boosts will be granted based on how the player plays during the match. The mode will then return to the first portion.
• Players can save their character's progress and battle against others' characters online.

Trophies

Trophy Gallery

• 3D trophies can be bent at specific joints for posing.
• The Appears In can now list up to three games, and trophies from the Super Smash Bros. universe have it removed entirely.

Trophy Shop

• More trophies (12) available at any time, but they refresh half as often.

Trophy Horde

• Arrangement of trophies can be adjusted by first appearance or alphabetical order.
• Background can be changed.

Stadium

Multi-Man Smash

• Rival Smash is replaced by Flower-Man Smash, which applies a flower to every player.
• New rival team is the Fighting Shadow Team, which are entirely black clones of the playable characters with red eyes. Unlike past teams, they can use special attacks, but these will not spawn any projectiles or entities.

Home-Run Contest

• The platform is slightly smaller and does not curve slightly inward.

Target Test

• Stages are now based on modified actual stages.
• Two difficulties are available, Classic and Challenge. Challenge mode has enemies and more spread-out targets.
