I don't get it, why do people on For Fun just jump around, repeatedly squat, taunt, etc., instead of fight?

I seriously don't understand what's so fun and engaging about doing that. It's like "derp derp derp, I'm just jumping and ducking for 2 minutes! Hur hur!"

  • So, it's more fun to just sit there. Gotcha.

  • Yeah, the pacifistic behavior, I don't know why people seem to think it's funny, but it isn't and is actually quite harmful to the game. Smash Bros still is a fighting game first and foremost. If you don't fight, you're not playing, and are effectively idling. And usually this devolves into a 3vs1 if someone actually tries the game like normal. I shouldn't need to explain why this is very bad.

  • Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you press X to open someone's profile and press the corresponding button to report them after a match?

  • Also, these players are technically idling so a lot of the time the servers just sort it out anyway. I wouldn't know, I've never been in one of those matches on For Fun OR For Glory...

  • They do it because they are playing for fun and people who said they are pacifist are right. They squat to show they are friendly.

  • @Jasper is right, that's exactly my point. And why on Earth would you even start up a FIGHTING game if you're pacifist!? Go play Animal Crossing or something, then.

  • I've been in a For Fun room were two people had their name tag as No Fight. Me and the other guy teamed on them. A few matches later I ended up in a room were everyone but me had a tag No Fight. The match turned into a 3v1 and I still won. Its like squid partiers, they lose skill for the game and act as if they are way better than you.

  • The irony is that these "pacifists" are actually bullies, willing to gang up on and torment anyone that doesn't play the way they want them to. And they will 3v1 you until you play by their rules or you leave the lobby.

  • If you don't want to play the game right, do it in with for friends mode, go against CPU's, or DON'T PLAY THE GAME AT ALL. Some people want crazy battles where people are fighting hard AND items are on.

  • Exactly. I enjoy both ways of playing Smash, but I almost never go into For Fun because 99% of the time, this is exactly what happens.

  • OK, this issue is getting serious. If I run into any online pacifists I will report them for idling.

  • Just had one today that ticked them all off. I played along until the last minute or so, and then KO'd two of them. They all were talking smack back at the fighter select, I reported and blocked all 3, then promptly left.

  • there not playing the game right the goal of the game is punch people in the face not just stand there

  • Also, @Paper CLDS, if you don't fight, it's not that your pacifist, you're just not filled with determination. ;-)
