    Like they were expecting we wouldn't notice the region lock or something. :rolleyes:

    The game never tells you there is a region lock either. It is like Animal Crossing when you're trying to go to another town. It simply states none of your friends have formed a team you can join. Even though you know your friend has just amde one and is waiting for you. The friend meanwhile in the lobby doesn't know, he just don't see the expected friend arriving.

    Hmmm I wonder what I can do in this regard


    You can help in differents way, for example, you're free to create more graphics members can use if they like in other forums, blogs, webs, etc.
    Or you can help spread the voice through your social networks. No one needs to do anything ridiculously big, any little thing helps. Like spamming gaia online with our url. Really.

    But in all seriously, if you have any ideas, let us know!

    Yeah, it's really messed up. This is honestly why I don't plan to get the game, because everyone I'd play with is from a different region (I'm in the UK, most of them are in the US).

    I am honestly regretting my purchase at this point and it is a real shame because I really wanted to support this game. I know Zelda multiplayers are not really cared for but with today's technology the potential to create an enjoyable online multiplayer is here so Tri Force Heroes seemed like a right time to be produced. Sharing a Zelda game with other people enthusiast for the franchise was something I was really looking forward to. Playing with my online pals and even family overseas was something I was looking forward too.

    Another thing @ShiroMZM brought to my attention while we were trying to play together is that the Spanish version of their official website mistranslated this:

    Quote

    ONLINE
    Go online via Wi-fi to team up with people from your Friends List or other players around the world.


    Into this:

    Quote

    "ONLINE GAME
    Connect to the Internet to team up with people from your Friends List or other players from any part of the world.

    ( JUEGO EN LÍNEA
    Conéctate a internet para formar un equipo con personas de tu lista de amigos o con otros jugadores de cualquier parte del mundo.)

    It may sound like minor differences but it is misleading potential customers to believe you can play with people from ANY part of the world, which in turn leads them to not suspect that you cannot play with all your friends from your FL. The original is also misleading but it is vague enough to get away with it, because once you know of the region lock it still holds true you can play with people from other parts of the world (not any, not every, just other parts) and with friends from your list (but they must be from the same region as you are). If it was the norm for Nintendo games online to be region blocked I'd understand but it is something unusual that past online 3DS games like pokemon, kid Icarus, etc didn't have.

    I am ticked, guys. Very disappointed with the approach they took with this game and I honestly hope Nintendo reconsiders and lift the restriction through a patch or something. Probably if enough people complain in Miiverse it might get Nintendo's attention, but who knows? I am pretty much resigned this game had potential and Nintendo cut its wings with this crap. Furthermore we didn't learn from them of this, it was just dished out by another website that got to play it to give us a preview. I wish I had checked it before in detail, as while the re-posts left out the Friend List having the lock, the source stated it pretty clear,

    Also, you can only play with people on the same region. That should help with latency issues, but is a shame if you wanted to play with friends from around the world.

    I've never heard of this game, but I will keep it in mind. Sounds interesting.


    Keep in mind I am not as classic Zelda orientated as you so YMMV on this one. Still I believe it is an underrated game. It was the one that paved the way for Zelda to take me. It is mostly played as a side-scroller adventure with a big zone you explore in top view. You get some gadgets as you progress and they help you reach areas you couldn't before. It also has differences with Zelda too, but the game itself I find it good.

    His opinions are all equally overstated and bland.

    Beyond the poop jokes and the exaggerated anger I do like AVGN for the information. I've learned a good amount of different consoles and games thanks to his episodes. There are some episodes I don't like, but I've never been a fan of shows showing diarrhea or vomit so in your face. Like those cartoons that keep the vomit scene going for uncomfortable long periods of time and taht's the gag, making you wonder when will they get done with it.

    Alright. My unpopular game opinions I can recall at the time...

    - The water Temple of Ocarina of Time is not difficult, at all. it is tedious but if you check your map constantly and don't forget certain chest of the second floor, you are usually good to go.

    - I don't care Nintendo calls Sheik a woman for being Zelda in disguise, I still believe that the character she was disguising herself as was supposed to be a male, so in that sense, Sheik is a male. Not saying that Zelda changed sex, just that she cosplayed as a guy. She crossplayed. Why is that people go up the walls when I say this and ignores that I am in no way denying Zelda's sex or that it is still her..

    - Rygar for the NES feels more like a Zelda game than the first Zelda and it is an underrated game.

    - Hardcore and Casual labels are mostly used just to claim some sort of superiority whether it is regarding the amount of time you dedicate to the hobbie or the franchises you choose to play. That the media and even gaming companies now have decided to adopt and use it to define targets is quite annoying because those terms are here to stay.

    - Brawl was not a bad smash game.

    - I didn't think the PH Ocean King's temple was as annoying as people made it out to be. I always tried to make the best record for te teletransportation points and they did helped to avoid doing all from beginning all the time.

    - Spirit tracks has a more involving sidekick and neutral guy, but the train was boring.

    I can't believe people let the crappy new battle mode system slide. Plus all the Gold Pink Purple Peach, Gold Pink Purple Baby Peach, Baby Luigi's Second Cousin Pink Bowser Gold Donkey Kong.

    The characters are dumb.

    I gotta agree with this. A lot. They have so many characters yet they decided to give us a lot of repeated ones. Even the DLC turned out to be Mario and Peach. Peach being the third adult one in the game. How about changing Mario and Peach attire the way we can select Yoshi's colours instead.

    The Battle mode was just plain lazy. I don't use often the battle mode but definitely the Nintendo 64 stages still great for it. Just using the same tracks seems very lazy. Being trapped in a way smaller area was half of the fun.

    I have never enjoyed the Angry Video Game Nerd.
    Not even a little.

    Interesting, I guess his humour is not your type. Or is it his opinions on the games he reviews?

    I've updated the first post to include the above info and also to show all the Pre-fixes we currently have. :) If you don't feel like Scrolling up, here are the new labels:

    Mostly for Feedback area.
    Bug: If you find any glitch, the forum is acting weird, use this one so we know it is something technical.
    Help!: If you have a problem and require our assistance, let us know. This include things like not understanding the tools to use the forum, if you can't find an appropriate area. A second use in the gaming forums for when you're stuck in a level or have any doubts.

    These are for shallow threads, like post funny images/videos/ etc compilations.
    Video: This will make easier for people to know what to find in your thread. For example we can share Flash videos of Zelda in Zelda Talk using this pre-fix.
    Music: Even if it is a music video you found in Youtube if the focus is the music (so it is not an AMV or video in itself) you can add this label.
    IMG: If your thread is mainly to share a picture use this.

    I made a test with someone I have in my friendlist from America we could make a team. So the Region block also applies to your friendlist.
    Also a Reddit user reported that in their demo they couldn't even do a local play with a 3DS being of a different region, so please take this in account if you are planning to get this game.

    To be honest, I am really frustrated about this. This decision puzzles me. I can understand when pairing with unknown people but it would had been nice to have the option. Furthermore I don't like that this lock not only extends to all the console but also does an IP lock. This means that, in theory, if you buy a console and travel to a different Region the game will be useless. It won't let you connect to your home region because of your IP and it won't let you play with players of the region you're in because of the console Region. Even if you find people near you that have the game you're screwed.

    For a game calling us to adventure with friends and other people, it seems to really be doing things backwards. What do you guys think?

    This is a very simple game to play and I have been itchy to bring it to you. I don't know how often it will be. It will depend how well it is received.

    Wow, guys. Don't be so hurried into the idea of being into a relationship. Being solo also has its advantages. There are things you won't be able to do once you are living with someone else. I don't know what's up with deadlines to find love or get married. ;-P

    I thought not having someone since Feburary was a problem. It's probably just my teenage mind getting to me, though.

    I guess peer pressure must be getting into you. TIO, you have a lot of time to grow up and have a meaningful relationship, don't worry about passing months or years without it. Take things one day at the time. (n_n)

    Wow I'm an Angel ** cough**** cough**

    I'm going to open a donation box to get some some cough syrup for poor @Servo. Being an Angel must kill your throat. :lengua:

    Oh, well, whatever it is just take it as that, an opportunity to learn more about yourself and earning money. Your first job interviews will help you polish yourself for if you decide to pursue that Game Stop job later on. :)
