And if they keep the game in p2p, 12 players will simply not work.
More of a reason to use Dedicated Servers
You'd think that with a paid subscription they would do that, right?
I have bad news for you: they didn't give us dedicated servers on smash.
We know
But even then we still don't know how that game's online will be exactly
If they didn't with the biggest and most expected smash ever, what makes you think they will do it with splatoon?
Fan Outcry?
Smash is a game that will sell tens of millions. Literally.
It was like "Hey, you know how wifi reception sucks on the Switch? Buy our LAN adapter, because we didn't put an ethernet port on the dock, it's only 59.99. Oh, and also, buy our GameCube adapter."
And they know that
Because ideally Nintendo will figure their shit out with online eventually
I'm not optimistic but maybe
Smash fans won't outcry
I mean, look at the last direct. Before the direct everybody was like "dedicated servers or we riot!"
The smash direct was working with what they had, sakurai doesn't have control over Nintendo online services
After the direct it was like "oh well, they assured us that the matchmaking will take into consideration the distance of the players so we don't need dedicated servers!"
Casual fans will buy the game if they want, and won't buy it if they don't, but their complaints won't be heard. Competitive fans don't give a damn about online, they play local
For real, we need to apply for Nintendo!
Who in the Fuck is so hissy pissy about online over there that they wanna ruin it for everyone?!
