My one gripe about this game

Postby Fitzkrieg » Tue Feb 22, 2011 6:48 am

Well, I started playing this game last night, despite having owned it from release date (I was attending a local MvC3 tourney this weekend, so much hype), and I'm loving it (as I have loved nearly everything NISA has released , bless you guys) BUT there is one tiny little thing that has been grinding my gears since minute 15.

The fact that you can't put spaces in the custom names for your combos, despite there being spaces in the default names.

I realize this seems stupid and that some of you may say, 'But Fitzkrieg, why don't you uniword or dash it, or even use equality signs à la BlazBlue?'. Well my answer to that is: 'Because, despite the potential being there, I am being withheld from my combo names looking nice.'

Anyhow, I'm done with my little rant about microscopic problems that really don't mean anything. That said, if anyone cares, I would be extremely grateful to see this inconvenience tweaked in the next patch.

I actually understand that.

What baffles me is that the "real" combos do it; they have spaces in them. So why is it that OURS can't, but some can?

That was just weird.

it seemed to make sense to me, as computer code/file names have no spaces in them, they use underscores, because to a computer a space means nothing, so it ignores it. I kinda use that to justify it...but the normal combos having spaces was kind of weird.

Can you 'Copy' the space in the name and then 'Paste' it?


I thought I was just overlooking the space button somehow... It was kinda weird...

No, only thing you can do is delete "around" the space in the original combo names, and then you only get the one space. I just use underscores like I stated above.

I think it's an artifact from the Japanese version of the game.
As an example, Phantasy Star Portable 2 in Japanese is ファンタシースターポータブル2
Note the lack of any spaces (though they do seem to use the "ー" as a space-equivalent).

Still, a patch to give us spaces would be cool, though if that never comes, I'll just stick with underscores like I have been. xD

Actually, there are no spaces in that xD That's the symbol for an extension in the Japanese language, which is basically the equivalent of doubling vowels. Japan really doesn't use spaces all that much. It's something you get used to.

Same here. I spent a good 10 minutes pressing every space button I could find and messing around. Then I just opted for the "use _ to space." thing. Its kinda frustrating.

Wow, on re-reading what I posted, I sounded dumb. I should have remembered that ー is a vowel extension. But yeah, in the end it just comes down to Japanese not really using spaces, and NISA forgetting to re-add the space key to the digital keyboard (if they can even do that).

Guess it would be too much to ask NISA to add a patch for a space key? Maybe they could fix the framerate issues in dungeons, too.
