Perfect the Online Environment in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4!

The Issue

     Even after the very brief release of "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4", it has been received exponentially well with positive reviews all around. However, there is one feature that has plagued the STORM community in its short time of release: "Spectator Mode".

     Previously, in the "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM" series, while enjoying the "Tournament" and "Endless" modes, one was able to spectate matches.

     Back in "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM 3", "Tournament" matches would go by one by one and everyone would watch each other's matches to: learn each others play styles, adapt to defeat a specific opponent, and overall entertain yourself before and after battle. However, in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM Revolution, this feature was removed and all battles took place simultaneously. Also, after one finished their battle, they'd have to wait until the others had finished their own in an empty lobby without the ability to spectate. This feature has begrudgingly returned in the latest, and final installation in the "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM" game, titled "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4".

     However, "Tournament Mode" is not the only problem in "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4". As stated earlier, "Endless Mode" has also been changed for the worse. In "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM Revolution", the mode was perfect; players would start their matches, and play until they were defeated. One by one, players would watch each other fight to gain the top spot and "streak" (winning several battles in a row). Most players came to this feature in attempt to replace the crippled "Tournament Mode's" intense fun and excitement. However, in "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4" this mode has been heavily crippled as well. Not only has "Spectator Mode" been removed, forcing players to wait in a blank lobby until it is their turn, but the max player capacity has been reduced to half: going from a maximum of 8, to a maximum of 4. This maximum of 4 needs to be brought back up to its previous amount.

     On the contrary, some players prefer the newer system of the online community. A small community of people would rather have the current style of "Tournament" and "Endless" modes.

     Seeing as this is this is the final installation in the "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM" series, players should be able to pick and choose how they would like their matches to be organized for maximum fun. Before an "Endless" or "Tournament" lobby is created, the owner of the lobby is able to choose several settings such as maximum player capacity, whether the matches will be single or team, etc. A simple patch to give players the option to not only add or remove spectator mode in "Tournament" or "Endless", but to return the maximum player capacity in "Endless Mode" back to 8 would suffice and satisfy everyone in the community. 

     From the many new features included in "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM 4" it is obvious that CyberConnect2 and Bandai Namco care about and cater to their fans and their requests. The perfect "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja STORM" game is almost upon us! Please produce a patch to include the features (stated above) that we, the fans, so desperately desire.
