Weird Glitch?

[NessFire]

Okay, maybe I'm missing something here, and although it isn't exactly related to Lucas (as far as I know) I think I found a glitch that seemed pretty effing bizzare.

Alright, the other night, me and my younger brother were playing a training session, of sorts. He as Ganondorf, and myself as Lucas. It was in a normal Brawl, Final Destination, 99 stock, and most importantly, NO ITEMS.

So, me and him are attempting to practice off-stage meteor smashes, without much luck, more or less plumetting to our deaths repeatedly. Suddenly, when my brother, Gannondorf, respawns, he spawns with the Final Smash aura around him, as if he broke a Smash ball. He then proceeded to use his final smash, of course.

Unfortunately, I can't remember what life he was on, or how many he lost, how much damage he had, or anything like that. Also, I regrettably have no video to prove it.

I don't know, is this some new thing incorporated into the game that I haven't heard of? Or is it a screwed-up freak occurance? Happen to anyone else?

Thanks.

if you are losing really....really badly in a match u will be given an automatic final smash. its a feature of the game.

Hahaha, okay, thanks for clearing that up. Yeah, the game must have thought it was a r4pefest (even though that wasn't our intention). I had no idea that it did that though.

I was under the impression that the game did not award Pity Final Smashes when items were turned off.

Huh, I don't know, all of this is news to me. I think it's dumb in the first place, because if you're losing that badly (especially in a stock game), one final smash can hardly 'make the difference'.

It was designed so someone who is severely outskilled another player can get/set up a kill. It annoys me when the CPU gets it, but otherwise it doesn't bother me too badly.

It probably works better in a Time FFA.

"Pitty FS"

 

[ForteX]

I didn't think it gave out Pity FSs when items are off, either. O.o

... Then again, I've never played a 99 stock match. Maybe if you're down by like 20 stock then the game will give you a Pity FS regardless.

 

[Professional Idiot]

Actually, even if you set items to "none", if the smash ball is on anyways, the game still gives out pity smashes.

 

[slickmasterizzy]

sweet so basically whats being said.

if appearance is set to none

but items are still "on"
then you can still get pity smashes.

similar to items left on (even with appearance set at none) can sometimes randomly be thrown by king ddd

Slick, I always thought you had to have appearance on and items off for D3 to throw items in a match without items.
