Guys have a question about characters unlock, do certain fighters require certain tasks or everyone will be unlocked eventually if I keep playing even if I'm a noob?
1 hour impressions: single player modes stink. Online seems better than WiiU in that its payable half the time. Facial animations are fun. Unlock method is annoying. Amiibo still pointless. 8/10
Thanks a bunch, I somehow missed the part about playing classic mode, appreciate it.
Yes. Also just exit the game. It's faster than changing languages.
You dont have to be I did it like 3 times and I havent stopped getting unlocks doing 1v1s and then resetting the game
It's because there's a minimum walking distance/jump requirement. Classic mode isn't necessary at all. Just run around on a map for awhile and if no character unlocks show up with doing the home button exit game exploit, just run around again.
Man. You really got to use spirits seriously lol.
An Olimar fight was kicking my butt cause he had an Ace spirit and I only had advance.

Yeah but you earn some shit in classic and boost those stats at the same time instead of mindlessly running and pressing buttons
Right, but I'm just saying if you're focus solely on getting the characters fast, you don't have to do classic mode at all. Obviously there's more fun ways to do it. :p
Classic mode was ok cause I got the arcade at the end and played some cool bosses. I literally only played 3 lol
Alright, I'm determined to stick with it and actually learn this game this time around. For a newbie, who's a good choice out of the starting roster? I've also unlocked Zelda and Ness. I'm assuming Mario, but wanted to check.
this is my roster brfore heading off to bed:
all unlocked via Spirit mode execpt for Ness; once I back out os story mode it gave me a "A new challenger approaches"
Spirit mode is fucking AMAZING!!!!
Edit just unlocked Zeldo! LOL went to check my progress and back out and another :Challenger" went down

Man, starring at the full roster in-game is such a beautiful sight. Pictures of the complete CSS never gave off the same feeling of being overwhelmed with choices that I feel when actually selecting from the menu myself. I think i'm done for my first day of playing the game, with 12+ hours down already.
fucking logged into story and back out and netted Pit and Inkling!!! lost to fucking Bowzer thanks to that fucking witch koopa bagged me and took me to the shadoow realm....
I posted this in this thread earlier this afternoon:
All the character unlock methods, including the "10 minute timer" and "reset" tricks, are wrong. Wrong info is still being copied into community google docs and wikis. Character unlocks are based on TOTAL PLAYER INPUTS (button presses):
https://www.ign.com/wikis/super-sma...Unlock_All_Characters_in_Smash_Bros._Ultimate
"Unlocks are not on a timer and that timer is not reset by rebooting the game.
Unlocks are based off of total player inputs and button presses. So if you play a furious, button-mashing 2-minute match you'll get a Challenger Approaching, but if you play a lot more passively and press way fewer buttons, it may take 10 minutes or more.
The big pre-release confusion seems to be that you can "bank" multiple character unlocks if you meet the button-presses requirements, but their appearance is on a cool down - the game spaces them out and doesn't give them to you back-to-back. So if you performed enough inputs to unlock 3+ characters you'd then unlock them in 10-minute increments, and this is the cooldown that CAN be skipped and reset by rebooting the console. But rebooting WILL NOT unlock a character if you didn't have enough logged player inputs already.
Easy enough to understand how a few pirates more casually playing misunderstood what was happening when they reset their console and got a new character several times in a row."

There's a minimum walking distance/jumping distance you have to do. Jump around in a match for awhile.
I havent touched online but Im right there with you. They need to fix this asap
Or you could do the Zero method (basically set up a 20 minute match and then go to Hyrule Castle and consantly walk to the wall.
Im telling yall go do classic mode once or twice and save all that little man work
That explains why I unlocked like 3 or 4 dudes in the span of less than 10 matches lol. Still pretty bad at the game so I'm really just smashing those buttons like hell.
Anyway, definitely grabbing another Pro controller after work on my way home. I live with my brother currently, and he seemed to enjoy Smash Wii U, so maybe I can get him to play Ultimate with me every now and then. Don't want to make him use the joy-cons though - I hate them for action games, doubt he'd love them either.
This works. Just home button and close app, get back into fight and repeat
Guys a question over a problem I've had in Smash Bros since Melee, is it supposed to be difficult to face the right direction?
I feel that whenever I want to quickly switch the way I am facing I end up running fast in that direction.
E.g. If I am facing right and a Pokeball appears just behind my back, when I try to face that way to grab it I usually then end up running way past the pokeball and usually in to somebody else (or some hazard).
Any tips?

Played a couple online quick matches that include team battle and free for all, and I'm impressed. There is a little bit input delay in some of my runs, but overall online experience is way better compare to smash Wii U, that one would lag per second while ultimate is smoother and becomes more enjoyable because of that.
I also have this problem and came here to ask about it. :x
The gamecube controller lag is terrible. I fought Zelda and it registered my inputs 1-2 seconds later. Needs to be fixed asap.
Is there a way to change the main menu theme like you could for Brawl? I got lost in My Music for 20 minutes, and I'm too scared to go back.
How is the game for someone who kind of enjoy fighting games? I've never given Smash a proper go, but the single-player offering and amount of content really makes me want to buy the game.
The fact that I can't specifically queue (only "prefer") 1v1 stock fights like in the last one really took the winds out of my excitement for online.
That's good to know. I wish I could invite him to fight online because that ran flawlessly for me during the few battles I had
