Vote: X or Y to jump

[mista_mista]

Keep X and Y both as jump buttons.

I wouldn't mind them taking off control stick up for jump cause uptilts would be easier

 

[tshahi10]

one could be short hop. one could be full jump as they say they want to make brawl with better aerials and noobs cant press x/y in less than 4 frames, so it will be a comfort.
plus like the opening vid, they used shorthop in the trailer a lot

 

[Classic-Black]

why the hell do you need a short hop button? keem em both as regular jump buttons, or just allow for customizable control schemes

no, since shorthopping is advanced technique, people would need to learn how to do it

 

[Dargent]

my choice definately goes to Y, because i use it

have you ever thought of the people who ARN'T n00bs and use the proper jumping technique. There is a reason why in the "how to" video it says "use up to jump" then a couple of seconds later it says "you can also use X and Y". the only thing i use X and Y for is wavedashing and i dont do tht much.

Learn to short hop, noob.

 

[DSMANIAC92]

Learn to short hop, noob.

i can shorthop thnx

 

[Oskurito]

There are very skilled people that use the control stick to jump, what you're saying is very stupid

 

[Creo]

I use Y because I hold the controler differently than normal.

 

[Mr.GAW]

Y is by far the most comfortable for me, just sliding my thumb across real quick. I guess X is for quick tappers, and Y is more for people who slide their thumb across.

I could be wrong though.

 

[Creo]

You are because I tap Y.

 

[Sculelos]

Y for me, although for a very long time I only used up to jump until I started playing around with POS controllers and started using Y as I found that it's faster then using up.

Irreguardless I bought some more Platenium controllers after I got sick of the cheap knockoffs.

Hopefully Brawl will use them so I didn't just buy them for Melee.

 

[elev135]

button configuration ftw

 

[FSLMJM]

I use Y. It's easier for me.

 

[TheBlackrose]

i think that would be dumb becuase i use up to jump when im doing rising attacks i also use y to jump when i do multi-shines and x for short hopping and wd'ing so i guess i use all the buttons
but i do think they should take "a" off of z becuz that just gets in my way and i also find it rarely annoying to do tilts sometmes and smashes come out

 

[Loooooni]

Y is definatly better for me i think the up with the control stick is annoying they should get rid of it

 

[TheBuzzSaw]

Y is where it's at. It forms a sacred triad with A and B. I never use X.

 

[FrozenRoy]

I vote for Both, even though I only use X.

Some people like to use Y to jump and I don't think that should be taken away.

 

[rsc_390]

Do you guys really think its that easy for everyone to convert? for those of you in this thread who have been saying they should make X/Y wavedash or w/e, shame shame. Not everyone can switch, and comfort in jumping takes priority over comfort in wavedashing. (I know for a fact that I cannot use X instead of Y).

So yeah. I use Y.

 

[DSMANIAC92]

I use Y because I hold the controler differently than normal.

seriously, i am interested how do you hold the contoller?

 

[Aussie_Phoenix]

I use X, its just a comfort thing

 

[victra♥]

seriously, i am interested how do you hold the controller?

We'll, i know you're addressing Creo, but this is how i hold my controller

note: Thats not my thumb lulz. For those who were wondering.

As I said earlier, I rest the joint of my thumb on the A button and I simply straighten my thumb to press the A button. So while SHFFLing, You'd just see my thumb bending and straightening.

Haha, it may seem awkward to most but it's really comfortable for me. haha

 

[DoctorChuk]

^ I ditto his comments. That's exactly how I hold it. X is so far away from everything else, especially the B button. I've always played with the ball of my thumbs, never the tips, since the NES days.

A lifetime of gaming and bowling has left my "thumb-balls" very calloused and almost completely devoid of any feeling. Rock on. Y fo' life.

Death to the X-ers.

 

[Burning Lava]

I'd vote to use X for jumping if they HAVE to use up one of the buttons for something else, but otherwise... keep it how it is. Both.

(I use X)

 

[Creo]

seriously, i am interested how do you hold the contoller?

Well I will either hold my left hand normally and my right not actually holding the controler but pressing the buttons.
Either that or I hold left a little diagonle and my right kind of sideways.

I can hold like above too but I use my fingertips.

 

[TakDragon7]

Well, I used both sometimes just for teh heck of it. I think that we can just keep them both.

 

[ForgottenLabRat]

I find it easier to short hop with X, but use Y for everything else

You probably don't need to necro threads for 2007.
