| Dallinor said: No voice chat, no camera, no freinds list, no player ID.... Complaints about lag.... What exactly does the Wii online service offer? Reading through these comments I get the impression that it's very restricting, soulless and utterly outdated. Are their firmware updates for the Wii? |
Those are the things it offers in random play... in friend code:
Co-op multi-man Brawl, online play using any rule set you wish (stock, time, team, certain items on/off), all stages selectable, local online (up to 3 people on one Wii), lag-free matches between those of good connections, and the ability to monitor what your friends are doing online (after entering the annoying friend codes) and join games that are being hosted.
Also, to slightly lessen the blow of friend codes, you can join a match with registered friends even if the people they are playing aren't registered, and then from the character menu you only have to click one button on the unregistered people and it will auto-register their friend codes.
What it lacks: Voice chat, something better than friend codes, stat tracking.
