[[File: | [[File:Wi-Fi Anyone.jpg|thumb|The ''With Anyone'' Menu for ''Brawl''.]] | ||
'''With Anyone''' is one of two modes for online play | [[File:WithAnyone-SSB4.png|thumb|The "With Anyone" Menu for ''Smash 4''.]] | ||
'''With Anyone''' is one of two modes for online play. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> version of this mode, the player can play with people they don't know. The opponent(s) will not know their name or any information about them. There will also be no battle records kept for this mode. With Anyone contains three different options. | |||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', "With Anyone" has been split into two modes: "[[For Fun]]" and "[[For Glory]]". | |||
==Modes in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''== | |||
===[[Basic Brawl]]=== | ===[[Basic Brawl]]=== | ||
The player | The player can battle online with players they do not know. Choosing a [[character]] is limited to 45 seconds to prevent stalling. The players can cast a vote on what [[stage]] to play on and what [[item]]s to turn on or off using [[coin]]s. If a player leaves in the middle of a match, the entire match ends and everyone taking part will be sent back to the [[Wi-Fi]] selection screen. | ||
===[[Spectator]]=== | ===[[Spectator]]=== | ||
In this mode, players | In this mode, players can watch other people's battles. The player can bet up to 100 coins on a player/team that he/she thinks will win the match. If the player/team the player bets on wins, there is a jackpot and the player will receive roughly x3 the amount of coins bet, x2 if it is a team battle. Occasionally, there will be a bonus round in which the player can earn double the usual amount of coins received if the selected player is the victor. If the person the player bets coins on wins, they will gain more coins. Also, the player can win some [[sticker]]s, even if they lose. | ||
== | ===[[Team Battle]]=== | ||
[[ | Team battle will not allow 2 players on the same [[Wii]] facing 2 other players unlike [[With Friends]] mode. Instead, the player is randomly matched with someone for their partner, and battles two other player on a team with [[Team Attack]] off. The player must have 4 players to start a With Anyone Team Brawl on Wi-Fi. A Team Battle player is unable to change their character's [[Palette swap (SSBB)|color]], and the team colors are randomly chosen as Red or Blue. | ||
===Criticisms=== | |||
''Brawl''{{'}}s With Anyone modes have received much criticism relating to its mechanics and the nature of gameplay: | |||
*Matches can only last 2 minutes, which has been criticized for being too short and not providing enough time for thorough gameplay. Coin matches and stock matches cannot be played as well. | |||
*Players can only have their choice of items or stage one fourth of the time, and are often forced to play on items and stages they do not wish to play on. | |||
*Online matches are commonly filled with players of low skill level, players who run away from all combat, players who [[griefing|grief]] and [[taunt match|fool around during matches]], and players who do not input any controls. | |||
*Basic Brawl matches can only have three or four players and CPUs are forced in when there are less than three players, making 1v1 matches impossible. | |||
*Players have no way of being able to play against certain opponents in the future, and cannot prevent themselves from playing against certain players. | |||
*Inputs have several frames of input lag, meaning that actions on screen occur later than they normally would offline, and slow connections frequently slow down or halt gameplay. | |||
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''== | |||
{{recent release}} | |||
Online play returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and is improved upon its previous incarnation from ''Brawl''. Two game modes are available: [[For Fun]] and [[For Glory]]. | |||
===For Fun=== | ===For Fun=== | ||
This game mode allows for battling more on the fun side instead of being competitive. In this mode, items are enabled and every stage except for their respective Omega forms and Final Destination. Only wins are recorded. Two battle modes are only present in For Fun: a free-for-all Smash and a Team Smash. | |||
In this mode | |||
===For Glory=== | ===For Glory=== | ||
In For Glory, on the other hand, allows for more competitive play to more experienced players. Items are disabled and only Omega form stages and Final Destination is enabled. Wins, losses, and other stats are recorded. For Glory also adds a third battle mode: a 1-on-1 Smash. | |||
===Fixes from ''[[Brawl]]''=== | |||
[[Masahiro Sakurai]], the game's lead developer, has announced plans to solve many of the problems found in ''Brawl''; the new game modes allow players to play with items off and on "fair" stages every time they play or with items on and on any non-Final Destination stage. Online Team battles return as well, functioning similarly to Brawl. A ranking system will also be used to determine the opponents a player fights against. In addition, a new ban system was implemented for more enjoyable battles. Punishments and temporary bans will be given to players who: | |||
*Join but do not fight | |||
*Relentlessly target a single player | |||
*Repeatedly [[self-destruct]] | |||
*Frequently drop out (for any reason) | |||
*Cheat (stated as "other abuses of the system") | |||
*Falsely or baselessly report another player | |||
On another note, [[Mii Fighter (SSB4)|Miis]] or moves from [[Moveset customization]] are not allowed. To use Miis or customizations online, the player must be in With Friends. | |||
