You know you're going to just get a bunch of trolls and people who have never played it, right?

Reposting what I already did in the one thta got locked for whatever reason.

I have to say I like it too. It is a considerable amount like SSB, but there are significant differences that are done very well. The strategy is essentially flipped upsidedown with the stage design and emphasis on supers changing the entire philosophy of how you battle. As soon as I changed my thinking to accomodate the strategy, I found myself winning a lot of my matches.

The biggest issue I can say is that the matching servers went offline a couple times. While annoying, it was obviously part of an adjustment period.

Overall, it was fun and I find myself a lot more hyped for this game than I was before. Also, I love Sly's invisibility.

I was playing it last night. I thought it was extremely fun. Each character controlled fairly differently. Just gotta get use to not pushing up to jump. Oh, and for some reason GS locked my thread on this same topic earlier. Not sure why. :(

I had a lot of fun with it, this beta is a lot better than the previous one, considerable level of polish was added. Some characters need balancing, specifically Radec's sniper rifle. Overall it seems like a solid title though, I just hope the final product includes a lot of nice touches SSB has, like character bios (trophies), music selection, stage creator, and mini games.

My PS+ subscription expired, so I only have the Vita version as of now, however I was in the previous beta that was both PS3 and Vita...and I got to say the Vita version holds up extremely well, in fact I actually enjoy it more on the Vita (party chat helps a lot with setting up matches with friends).

I'm not sure if I'll be picking it up day one, but if I have the money I will.

I don't have PS+, but my friend does. Overall it is about what I expected. The combat works decently, better then I thought. After playing the biggest con is the roster. I really wich they had fought for some of the classic sony charcters that didn't make it. Also most of the movesets are good, a few moves are overpowered, Some moves I think there are better things that they could have done to represent a character then what they did.

Yeah it's too bad characters like Crash or Spyro aren't in the game, but I believe Superbot did try for them, but apparently Activision wouldn't allow it. Hopefully they will get a deal done in the near future, as free DLC (one can hope :P). Sony did it with Starhawk by allowing LBI to give out their DLC maps for free, what better way for this game to build a solid fan base by promising future DLC for free.

those were the characters I wanted :( I also wish instead of evil cole they did kesler since he would play different then evil cole. They also should have added more villians no tsuch a focus on heros. I would have liked to see Dr Nafarious, kesler, Zeus, etc.

Yeah more villains would have been welcome. Maybe in PSABR2? :lol:

I do get why they do Evil Cole though, his moveset is entirely different than Good Cole. Pressing a button and going from good to evil wouldn't make as much sense as Zelda changing costumes and becoming Sheik.

I had a hard time finding it also. Do a search for "Allstars Battle Royal Beta." Not sure why Sony didn't put it right on the front page.

Hate it just as much as I hate Smash Bros, as expected. I really don't get the appeal of this sort of game....I'll stick to my traditional fighters thanks. But at least the roster is good.

SO what you're saying is that you own either a PS3 or a PSVITA and actually downloaded the game. If PS3, that means you actually paid for PS+ to get it and if Vita......well that means you have a Vita. Tell me, how much is M$ paying you again? :lol:

I played it last night, will play it again later when I get off work. I find it very fun, it's basically Smash Bros just slighty different. Is it better than Smash? In some ways yes so far like the online, but overall no.

But it's not worse than Smash Bros either. Both of these games have a right to exist to each other, if you like Smash Bros you will enjoy this. My favorite character so far is Radec. I'm happy the beta will be going public to eveyone soon too, I noticed that most of the people that actually play it and give it a chance end up loving it.

Haters are gonna hate, but most of that hate comes from dumb fanboys that can't play it in the first place.

I'm only good with Kratos :P In the previous beta I mained Kratos and Radec. I tried Sly in the new beta and had a good impression I'll be trying him out more later. It plays surprisingly well on the Vita the only problem is that it gets kind of hard to tell whats going on or where you are when things get hectic on the smaller screen.

No bro it is definately worse then smash bros. Its good but not Smash bros level. Its nothing to be ashamed of as this is superbots first try, but you are kidding yoursef if you think that this game is on the same level as SSB already.

My only complaints about this game are as follows:

1) Missed character opportunities. I was hoping for Cloud, Spyro, Crash etc.....the current lineup is good for what it is, but it could have been better.

2) Seems a little unbalanced with some of the characters and specials.

3) It's hard to keep track of your character, the game is very chaotic, it's like Smash Bros on crack. And in this chaos it's hard to follow your fighter. They need to make it easier, and when you play with a friend and they are the same character there is not enough vareity in the different outfits.

The special kill only system actually works better in gameplay than it sounds. I am having fun with the beta but I would like to see if it has good SP porion first, and if it has a good amount of unlocks like items, costumes etc.....

It's my opinion, many people share it. Not dumb fanboys on SW, but regardless I do not care what other people think. Smash Bros has a crap online, this game has good online. I have the same amount of fun with this as I do with Smash Bros. Your fanboy bias isn't going to change my opinion.
