Smash Bros Ultimate update 1.2.0 is live (balanced fighters, online improvements)
- Thread starter Atheerios
- Start date
I assume they haven't fixed the fact you have to keep reselecting your character between rounds in Smash mode.
We need important fixes like giving the UK the correct set of Punch-Out titles. R.O.B's title should be 'Robotic Obliterating Buddy', not that awful 'The Last of his kind'.

Pre-Patch: All 4 player FFA with items.
Post-Patch: 6 matches in and all 1v1 no items Omega stages 3 stock. Exactly what I want. Only thing that sometimes differs is the time.
Perfect!! All of them have been lag free too to be honest. Those 6 matches have been the best smash online experiences I've ever had.

It's been assumed that everything has been bug fixes so far. Glitches and bugs. NO balance changes even though that's what it says. Although its still being checked.
Keep an eye on this: https://smashboards.com/threads/v1-2-0-patch-notes.465465/
Well, first online matches after updating were a revelation: no lag and 1vs1 as chosen. That lasted for five, six battles. The rest of my session, other fifteen battles or so, have returned to the old ways. I have been playing duels for days, so no change in that regard, but in these conditions, trying to play is a waste of time.
I never set preferred rules. How likely are the matchmaking changes to increase the number of no items, Fox only, Final Destination matches I get placed in?
I don't mind these matches occasionally but as a Link player I feel bad for my opponents since they don't have terrain or platforms to evade my projectile shower, and without items most characters don't have the tools to keep up.

Would be nice if they actually gave us proper patch notes for balance like a fighting game should.
Also i still would prefer just having For Glory instead of praying on the off chance i dont get thrown into a 4 player match. And you still cant change your character between rematches like in Smash 4. Give us an option to do that.

At a bare minimum it should just let us decline any matches other than our preferred rules.
I'm tired of getting into 3 stock, 3 minute matches with the opponent trying to badly timer scam lol.
Why are you panicking when it's clear most of the things are bug fixes, lol
Fuck, I hope they fix this too. What the hell is that about? The game remembers the names if I back out of Smash into other modes, but playing Squad Strike games back to back resets them? What the fuck?
It's extremelly annoying because my SO and myself use different control schemes, so I can't even set the default to mine and call it a day; and considering Squad is pretty much the only mode we play in versus...
Did they nerf Bastion?
Also, getting only either Pikachu or Eevee kinda sucks. They could have given you both by playing either game...

The other one will be available via the spirit board or shop from what I read
you just get one for free
Ah dang, figured I could convert my replays over the weekend. Ah well.
Better preferred matchmaking is great. Unlike most people I actually WANT to play 4-player FFAs, but 9 out of 10 times I was getting matched in 1v1 matches. Hope to see some improvement!

Never understood the challenger approaching thing being difficult. I frequently beat them without taking damage and all i do is spam smash attacks.
The only change I'd like is a rebalancing of the CPUs so that they're actually fun to fight. The way that they aggressively read your inputs means that you have to be entirely counter-oriented when fighting them, which is an extremely boring way of playing that isn't really representative of the game's strengths.
In Brawl and 4, I could have entire tournaments with myself against level 9 CPUs and enjoy it. Now I can barely get through a single match with one, and when I do win it feels like random luck mixed with obscene patience.

They read your inputs less than Smash 4 and Brawl. They were awfully too defensive in those with their frame-perfect air dodges.
For me it was hard or super easy. Some rivaled lvl 8-9 (prob 9) computers from what I fought. I played against a level 8 in training and actually had an easier time. Then other times it was like fighting a level 1, no damage like you said. Maybe it's different for everyone?
It definitely should, but tweaking the relative importance of preferences is probably going to change over time. Releasing the game without a beta probably hurt matchmaking more than anything else.
Not quite the flavor like those ARMS patch notes had.
Tried playing post patch online last night, and every single match lagged, rather than just a handful.
I did get 1v1 every match, but sometimes that meant items, and only 1 match out of 30+ had my exact rules (omega stages).
So I still get items, stage hazards, and sometimes just smash ball which made me realizw that I never quite understood how lame that item was.

I kind of don't want to update until I unlock the other 30 fighters or whatever, ha. I like the occasional challenge.
Can't speak for how Preferred Rules worked for Quick Matches prior to the patch, but I always ended up with 1v1s and no items. No lag or input delay, either.
My choice to wait until they got some of the kinks ironed out paid off, it seems. Wish the same was the case for some of you.
Nope. This is one thing I'd like addressed.

Doesn't the Switch auto update? I had my game open already so I got lucky and was able to save a few but converting takes a long time so I let a bunch go. Oh well.
Yep. Last night, my fight with Diddy Kong literally had him 0 to Death via SD. I just stood there.
The time probably differs sometimes because the one yer fighting with has it set on that time so it switches between your and his rules
Played a little Duck Hunt Dog this morning. Can anybody confirm if they changed his can or if I just didn't notice this behavior? When kicking his can, if you let it land and rest, you could move it again by pressing B. Before there wasn't much of a delay. This morning it felt like I had to press B more than once to start moving the can again if it ever was at rest on the ground.
