CrusaDLC Pre-Development Discussion

Agreed with Strider, leave it as is.

Might I suggest a name change here?

It doesn't really roll of your tongue- CrusaDLC. How about DLCrusade? It makes much more sense, actually meaning "Downloadable Crusade" which is what's happening. "Crusa- Downloadable Content" doesn't make much sense.

Just saying DLCrusade would be a better title in my opinion.

And I suggest that you change your name to Dr.Mario-X, because frankly, right now it's like you're named Mariox, which is an awful name.

Just a suggestion.

Honestly, there is no reason to consider something as trivial as this.

Ugh. DMX, again, you liked this name. And again, the current name sounds better.
Falcon wouldn't suggest it because he already approved of this name. DLCrusade sounds worse. You don't pronounce both words. Dee-Ell-Crusade vs Crusae-Dee-Ell-See.

Guys, stop bugging DMX and let me deal with him if it's about something like this.

We don't. But we DO consider this a team effort.

If Falcon suggested it, you guys might've liked the idea-

No, we wouldn't have. We all hate it.

It's still downloadable content no matter what it is called...

I voted Nintendo characters only. I feel that 1st and 2nd parties deserve it more than 3rd parties. VOTE FOR TOM NOOK, TAKAMARU, LIP, EXCITEBIKER, & ANDY!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyways, let me be the 1st to start a leaderboard to see who is leading the poll.

1st. Viewtiful Joe

2nd. Tetrominoe

3rd. Ryu Hayabusa & Earthworm Jim

4th. Slime & Travis Touchdown

5th. Shantae, Shulk, Popeye the Sailor Man, & Chell

6th. Quote, Takamaru, Ray MK, Professor Layton, & Klonoa

7th. The Heavy, Starfy, Spyro The Dragon, & Crono

8th. Sora, Tom Nook, Lip, Chibi Robo, Kratos, Medusa, Sir Arthur, Prinny, Excitebiker, Frogger, & Sly Cooper

9th. Ratchet and Clank, Master Chief, Frank West, Sukapon, Heihachi Mishima, & Captain Rainbow

10th. Conker, Kyo Kusanagi, John "Soap" MacTavish, Morrigan Aensland, Dante, & Jak & Daxter

11th. Albert Wesker, NiGHTS, Andy, Muddy Mole, Palutena, I.M. Meen, Rash, Lara Croft, Bonk, & Jill & Drill Dozer

12th. Dr. Wright, Firebrand, Kite, Wilfre, Nathan Drake, The Prince, & Duke Nukem

13th. Adam Jensen, Hatsune Miku, Moai, Raving Rabbid, Sophia the 3rd and Jason, Nobunaga Oda, Sabure Prince, Jim Raynor, Mike Jones, Gordon Freeman, & Joanna Dark

14th. Tommy Vercetti

I think the list is perfect at the moment. My only problem with it, is that we have the Heavy instead of the Scout, he was built for Smash, with his double jump, and his Force a Nature which actually has knockback in the game. Plus, the Bonk Can would make a great S Special.

As for me im disappointed with the poll so far. Nintendo characters needs more love

I voted for Sukapon, Lip, Andy, and Shulk. Aren't they all Nintendo?

Bumping this thread. Come on tom nook, lip, takamaru, andy, and nintendo characters

Shulk is the best option to be honest.

Shulk is deserving indeed. And hes Nintendo. I think.

This reminds me; I still need to vote!

Not sure if Shulk is considered a deserving character. But more like the company he is under, which is Monolith Soft, is deserving. Shulk would just be a good representative that is relevant and popular. Overall I do support him and gave him a vote, especially since he is Nintendo.

Yeah,Me too.

He is an RPG rep. Crusade need RPG reps.

My votes:
Shantae (Shantae)
Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden)
Albert Wesker (Resident Evil)
Slime (Dragon Quest)
Popeye the Sailor Man (Popeye)
Starfy (Densetsu no Stafi)
Tom Nook (Animal Crossing)
Lip (Panel de Pon)
Takamaru (Nazo no Murasame-Jo)
Master Chief (Halo)
Muddy Mole (Mole Mania)
Professor Layton (Professor Layton)
Firebrand (Ghosts 'n Goblins and Gargoyle's Quest)
Medusa (Kid Icarus)
Raving Rabbid (Raving Rabbids)
Rash (Battletoads)
Nobunaga Oda (Nobunaga's Ambition)
Nightmare (Soul Calibur)
Viewtiful Joe (Viewtiful Joe)
Tetrominoe (a.k.a. L-Block) (Tetris)

My only concern in the current list is Chell, as someone would have to program Portals. Here's my proposed moveset for her, but I'm wondering if it's a bit OP.

Play Style
Chell is the ultimate in stage manipulation, allowing her to mess with her opponents to no end allowing her to score most of her kills as suicides.

Neutral: Portal
Chell charges the Portal Gun, and like Fox's Up Special can use that time to choose where to fire. She then fires the first Portal, when used again she always fires the other one to the last Portal used.

Side: Orange Paint
Chell fires some orange paint from the gun, this will cause any ground that touches it to be seriously slippery, and anyone running on it will speed up. Can be used downwards in the air for a recovery.

Up: Blue Paint
Basically the same as orange paint, but the paint is blue and instead of increased speed any character on it cannot stop jumping. Can also be used on the wall as a bumper. Can be used downwards in the air for a recovery.

Down: Turret
Chell pulls out a turret and sets him down, anyone who crosses the laser light gets shot by the turret. Turrets can also be attacked with projectiles or from behind to knock him over. Chell is also vunerable and can also get hit by the turret.

Final Smash: GlaDOS
Everyones favorite homicidal AI decends from the stage, threatening to gas the entire stage, the enemies then have 5 seconds to attack all the AI cores to stop her, otherwise the screen gets gassed and all the enemies get flung.

Chell would likely be extremely difficult to code. The player would need some serious control over the portal placement to make the above play style viable, and it would also have to be fairly quick placing the portal, otherwise Chell would never get portals out in useful locations to cause a SD without being interrupted. I would say placing the portal should work almost identically to controlling the Uspecial of Black Mage in SSF2 (If you are not familiar, a ring appears that moves fairly quickly and can be moved in any direction, and direction can be changed at any time). This way Chell can place the portals where she needs them to be. You would also have to be able to control which direction they face once placed, regardless of the direction you were facing when you shot it (otherwise only one direction would be feasible for a portal placed off stage). Which brings up another tough point: Portals that open vertically. Definitely an important part of the moveset, but you would need to be able to place them. I'm thinking positioning the portal itself would work how i described above, then once placed there would have to be a follow-up command of some kind that indicates the direction the portal opens (probably another directional input)

How in the world do we have so few votes.

SPREAD THE WORD, PEEPS.

Come on guys! For those of you who havent voted, take this opportunity now to give your favorite characters some momentum on the poll. Even if your not a roster person, share your bias for once by voting. Lol

Already did, the only two I care about are tied for fourth and fifth.

Is the Super Mario DLC character already decided?

Because I'd like to vote for Rosalina, the ONLY character I was looking forward to in this game.

We're not having a Mario DLC character.

Were not having one, as Geno is back in the roster.

So there will be no Rosalina at all then? That really stinks.

Oh well, at least I'll be able to play as Toon Link and Toad.
As well as Dr. Mario and Pichu, despite being alts.
