So, probably a late question, but the guy who's streaming is the same as this guy posting? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOPTMwXAH7M

I've got better things to do atm than watch a stream, but I wanted to ask is it his shitty set up causing that lag, or is it the game?

Also, allow me to be a tiny bit optimistic here, even for a moment, but we do see a bridge in the background there, that could indicate a water source in the BG. Not to mention, battle areas are usually determined by the majority area - Like, is there any context to the scene in question? Like, what city is it taking place in? Is it even in a city? Or what? Before I can really say anything on that, I'd like to get more than just 25 seconds of footage in that regard.

Edit:

UGH.

I hate it when people just post 360 pi videos, its so ugly.

Nevermind my last post, got it to work...

Again man, I'm gonna need context. If anything,, I could say that it's the entrance of a town there and they just went outside to battle. 11 seconds doesn't really do the trick.

Can you just link me the vid? I know its the same guy who's uploading those vids - since >female is being used. And the green haired avatar chick too.

Edit 1:

YouTube

www.youtube.com www.youtube.com

Like this?

I understand the complaint, but frankly, I don't even mind this. I mean, yeah, it'd be cool to have them battle in the cityscape, but I can easily just believe that they walked out of the city - They're doing training. I can understand people not liking it, but it's not a major thing to me - Especially considering that it's not too unbelievable that they'd just walk in and out of the city (yeah, they could totally show that, but frankly... *shrugs* not that big of a deal to me)

Also, we do have to remember that these games aren't out yet, any support for the games, or patches to fix small things like this (Like I said earlier, I haven't watched the streams - Is there a location where you fight on a bridge in the game?) - Again, label me as hopefully or as an idiot, feel free to, I deserve it.

The big issue with this mindset is that Game Freak does not push out patches for the games, except for when a game-breaking bug has to be fixed, because of their philosophy that when they ship out a game, it is "Complete", and also to ensure game compatibility with friends.

Yup.

Although to be fair, if they did use the same bridge from that, you'd get people pulling the same thing again.

On a side note, and wanting to get away from this whole headache...

A while ago, I talked about a fan game - And they're working on a fan game where they're including their own version of the wild area. This is only 1/8th of it's planned size so far.

In addition: the difficulty of this area is based on scaling - based on play time in the game.

Seems cool, always wanted to see what a 2d giant safari zone type area would be like for fan games, what is it called?

Apparently, you need enough gym badges to catch certain leveled pokemon, the dude got a message saying that he could catch up to level 25, found a level 27 Sneasel, and it refused to catch it. IDK how true this is, I just read it on Reddit but if it's true, and I assume that is. That is a terrible feature, especially in the wild where over leveled pokmon are supposed to show up...

Its the trade restriction applied to wild area. Its the only thing that makes sense.

It's called Pokemon Rejuvenation. (https://www.rebornevo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/48657-v13-status-thread/)

It's still in development, but, they've got about... 14 gym leaders to play, all pokemon, alternate shiny pokemon (shared quite a few a long while back in this thread), and the story...

Is balls to the wall insane and on the level of fanfiction.

But, the fact that you can choose your difficulty in the game - And yes, there is a difference - More than makes up for the balls insane story.

There are also plans for including Gen 8 in the next update.

Actually, to bring this in to talking about this fan game, they actually have a few things to point out -

They have level caps on your pokemon, basically, how strong your team is dependent on the number of badges. They won't gain EXP when they reach the level cap... BUT, you can break it by feeding them Rare Candies...

But you don't wanna do that. Cause like how people have been saying in this forum, even pokemon you catch yourself in this game will disobey you if they're over the level cap.

Honestly, I'd prefer this kind of system in an actual PKM game.

I know I'm shilling hard for this game, but from a game design perspective, it's really good - Too bad the story really, really, REALLY makes me cringe - Especially when it doesn't know which character it wants to consider the main character. Then again, I'm willing to put up with the fanfiction level story for this game because of it's difficulty, changes to gameplay...

Also, there's a sidequest in the latest game where there's a Goomy that looks like Link from LoZ, and you help him become the hero of legend...

I can't say no to that creative idea for a sidequest.

Oh my God there's a level cap, isn't there? You can't level up after a certain point for a while, can you? Is this Game Freak's plan to try to get rid of the (traded) Pokemon disobedience? :stress:

Doesn't seem like it, though that just causes Exp share to be an even bigger pain in the ass then usual
 
The battle backgrounds are all over the place. Sometimes they match up perfectly. You fight Hop on a big bridge, the battle background is the bridge and surrounding area.
hop_beforebattle.png hop.png
Yet when you fight some Team Yell grunts on the same type of bridge, suddenly the battle background is a field? With the bridge far off in the distance? What?

These battles take place in the exact same location, literally back to back.

To be fair, for the team yell battle, you are seen to be near the edge of the bridge. It would be just as strange as to have the battle scene be on the bridge than having it be in the distance.

Prease understand
We no budget
 
Seems like every day there's something new to sperg about with this game. Most of the changes i don't really care about, the only thing i don't like is the exp share. Graphics are fine to me, music is fine to me, the new mons are pretty interesting to me and i'm happy Gyms are back one of the things i look forward to the most in each game is the gym gimmicks.
 
Considering everything else going on in this shitshow of a game, improper scaling is small potatoes in the grand scheme of things. But in this instance I think it's amusing to point out that it looks like Wailord got shrunken down even further.

To give a sense of perspective, this is what it looked like in the GameCube titles.
