Talk:Cloud (SSB4)

Okay, whoa. This is big. I thought Ryu was groundbreaking enough, but then this comes along. Trying to contain hype. 15DollarsWentSouth (talk) 17:54, 12 November 2015 (EST)

I know this is hype, but SW:TALK. Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 17:54, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Please refer to SW:TALK. As exciting as the news may be, talk pages are for improving the article, not idle chatter. Berrenta (talk) 17:55, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Alright, real talk now. Anyone else hear unique hitsounds from Cloud's attacks? Because I did. If that's the case, should we elaborate on that somewhere down the road? 15DollarsWentSouth (talk) 18:22, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Could be, but it's not 100% sure, and other attacks do have unique effect sounds. Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 18:28, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Attacks

The page currently says that Omnislash's name is "not confirmed", but there's an obvious box at the top of the screen reading "Omnislash" in the trailer. I think that's confirmation enough. Also, while these aren't officially confirmed by name yet, Cloud is seen using moves whose PS1 FF7 names are Blade Beam and Cross Slash, and while this one is far more speculative than the others, I believe his Up-B is supposed to be Climhazzard. --131.107.147.30 19:15, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Feel free to note the similarities to existing FF7 moves, but don't claim the move names as Smash-official until we have proof of that. Miles (talk) 19:17, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Um, I can't edit the page. That's why I put it here. (I still say "Omnislash" in that red box should be confirmation enough.) --131.107.147.30 19:21, 12 November 2015 (EST)

It's protected from unregistered users and users without 10 or more edits to prevent false info from being added. Is the current wording good enough? Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 19:26, 12 November 2015 (EST)

I can edit it. At least we have a move to say that it resembles. Thanks, IP. DekZek 19:28, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Which is Blade Beam, and which is Cross Slash? I need to know. Thanks. DekZek 19:32, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Neither is listed on the page right now, but they're in the trailer. Blade Beam is what it sounds like: a big beam of green energy that flies out from Cloud's sword (1:39 in the trailer). Cross Slash is the move where he creates some kanji in the air in front of him with several slashes (1:41). Compare with this video. --131.107.147.30 19:40, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Just on point with Cross-Slash, the kanji (凶) is actually part of the Japanese name for the move 凶斬り (Kyōgiri), which pretty much cements it as that move. (Lest we get its localized name of Slayer...) 114.198.1.74 21:24, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Head icon

I did my best to make a head icon for Cloud, but my computer's being a dick; that being said, I can upload it tomorrow. Will this be alright? Aidan, the Wandering Space Warrior 19:36, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Yep. Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 19:41, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Wikia

Wikia cross-links are acceptable in situations of character-based universes with no NIWA wiki to link to, as seen in our linking regarding Xenoblade, Mega Man, Street Fighter, etc. Miles (talk) 19:45, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Official Screenshots (And Hi-Res Render)

Gematsu has Screenshots for Cloud and Midgar, along with a high resolution render (though with green background): http://gematsu.com/gallery/super-smash-bros-for-wii-u/november-12-2015/ 67.173.10.221 20:19, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Thanks! Nyargleblargle (Talk | Contribs) 20:20, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Should we make Move pages?

We have a relatively clear idea of what the moves potential names would be. If they end up being innacurate, we can just move them. Should I make these pages? Cross-Slash, Omnislash, Climhazzard, Blade Beam, Braver, and Limits. If anything, we can get a head start on the origin sections. What should we do? DekZek 23:20, 12 November 2015 (EST)

I wouldn't be opposed, but the problem is we don't know in what way these moves will be used. I'd honestly wait until we get further info. Disaster Flare (talk) 23:21, 12 November 2015 (EST)

Like I said, we can mostly make these pages to get the origin sections done before the next traffic flood, when they release him. DekZek 23:23, 12 November 2015 (EST)
