Switch Idea: Slap Switch

Archive: 10 posts


Does anybody else think this is an good idea? It would be a switch that gets activated when you slap whatever it is placed on, I think it could make for some challenging enemies/bosses. Please comment your opinions.2009-05-17 16:31:00

The thing is, the slap is really buggy, and often very hard to do. A simple shrunk-down button would suffice, I should think. Also, how would this work with on/off and direction?! It'd have to be a latched switch or only ever one off...2009-05-17 16:39:00

Why slapping? We can already grab and push to get the same result: putting the on-way switch on/off or the 3 way to the left or right.
Sorry, I really don't get what it would bring to the game...

Tell that to the folks who join my online games. XD

*SMACK!*

*SMACK!*

*SMACK!*

This goes on until I drag everybody to a deathmatch level and let them render violence against each other to their hearts' content... Then it becomes fun, at least...

Like they said, slapping doesn't have an "impact" in the game, all it can actually afffect is other sackboys, also, it is not precise, it rarely hits in the exsact place you want it to hit, its range would be too short, and it takes a few tries for it to work sometimes.

Sorry m8, but i don't see how it could work.
Maybe if the slapping system worked better, but the way it is now, i don't think it'd be too good...

That's the point of the slap switch, to give slapping a point!

But yeah, slapping is really hard to do. If they ever think of and easy way to slap, this would be a cool addition. How about hold L2/R2 and click L3/R3 for an easy slap?

one problem with a slap switch is that quite a few players don't know how to slap

i didn't learn how to do it until i'd played the game for several hours, and whenever i get my friends to play it they have even less of a clue of how to do it

R2/L2 +L1 (since its not used for anything anyways.
That could work as well.
Tho it's still cool how it is now, if onl they'd just easen up slapping to make it easier to make and not break your controller just to do it once...
