I've played a few games in the series here or there but I've never finished one. I just started going through them tonight. After switching the a button to L1 instead of O it plays like a fucking dream. I missed out on these growing up but played the originals in the gamecube collection as a kid. Excited to go through and play them now. Fucked up Chill Penguin. Fucked up Storm Eagle. Let us freaking go fags and faggets. Post mega man art. Post mega man appreciation. Or simply ignore the thread and sleep. I will not be. I will be raping mega man x on the SNES. You're either cool or you're not. I literally don't make the rules.
>>721608514>After switching the a button to L1 instead of O it plays like a fucking dream.You can double tap left or right btw.
>>721608562harder on analog stick which I prefer because it's less stress on the hands. aging anon
>>721608514This game is cool but the final boss is a bitch, I just watched the fight on youtube
>>721608514based L dasher
>>721609228I ran into this problem with x4 but I don't watch youtube I simply stop playing and shelve it for later
>>721609272the default controls are honestly nonsensical you can't dash while charging your gun, it significantly improves your ability changing that. idk what they were thinking
>>721609390I ran into this problem but I don't shelve it for "later" I simply know I'm never gonna finish it
>>721609441Quick weapon switch had to be on bumpers so it would make sense
>>721609515it seems worth it to me idk. I'm planning to do it now. whether I succeed is another thing entirely
>>721609441>the default controls are honestly nonsensical you can't dash while charging your gunmassive skill issue. why are gaymers so pathetic these days?
>>721610092it's not ergonomic you fag. they corrected it in later games rightfully so. that game could be beat with default controls, but it would be far, far less fun. faggot
>>721610267Not that guy so I'm not aggressively challenging your gamer skills, but if you claw grip using A to dash is fine. I'm lucky because I have big hands and claw grip is natural to me, none of this would have been an issue if SNES had 4 shoulder buttons
>>721610394yeah I read that a lot of people do that so I just changed it. it's working for me, it is what it is. must've been tough back in the 90s. I'm finding myself getting into mega man kinda unexpectedly after playing gunvolt recently
X:Corrupted never ever
X>X4>X3>X6>X2>X8>X3>X7
R dashers ww@ L dashers r gay
>>721610267>shitter can't hold 1 button and press 2 others with a single thumbGARGANTUAN skill issue. children in the 90s could do this with no difficulty.
>>721610796-_-
Should I map the dash button to R1 or R2?
>>721611049Dash>CircleBuster>Square/R1
>>721611049it's better to map dash to a different hand than the one you're using to shoot and jump
btw you are all really getting hung up on this button mapping thing damn
>>721611139If you're a filthy casul, sure ;^)
>>721611049Emulate, put dash on R1, weapon switching on L2 and R2
>>721611239you guys are all retarded. you might as well do something with your left pointer finger. you make me sick
>>721611325It's awwwwwkward, pressing R1 to dash just has good game feel
>>721611379this is true to an extent but you're gonna wear down your right hand faster that way. just shit I have to think about with carpal tunnel.
it's interesing. if you don't know the layouts you kinda go slow and steady but not too slow because enemies will non stop spawn. I am following a recommended order because I wanna play through these games at a reasonable fucking pace but there's really something special here I think
are the x collections actually shit btw? I've heard they're bad. are there any of these legacy megaman collections that don't suck and are actually the definitive editions of these games? there have beenso many on so many consoles. there must be one. and how bad are the steam ones?
>>721610672Bro you have 3 listed twice in place of 5.If X3 is in your top 3 then you're cool.
>>721612037legit question
The best game in the series is X. Every other game after X is worse than X, but X2 is competent.
>>721608514there's a lot of rock paper scissors in MegamanX. Storm eagle & Chill penguin mavericks is the literal starter to dominating the game as MegamanX; what are the rules anyway?
>>721609228>>721609390lmao shitters
>>721614806yeah I just raped the fuck out of the mammoth. it wasn't even fair. am I wrong that the majority of people will find a recommended order for a first playthrough? I wanna enjoy playing the games first even though they still get hard as fuck and then go back and try new stuff off the beaten path
>>721608562Fuck that, that shit's why I'm never playing xtreme
>>721612037please someone give me a rundown you motherfuckers know. are ANY of the collections good on steam? enough to justify not just fucking emulating
>>721608514If you ever get to X3, find a rom hack called the Zero project which makes it actually fun and cuts the stupid ass restrictions.
>>721611325>you might as well do something with your left pointer fingerYeah it toggles weapons (I select them from the pause menu anyway)
>>721608514X4 is peak, I enjoyed 1-3 though. Never played 5-8.
>>721615391nah I'm just playing the originals.
>>721615187nothing against against it, awareness is also a skill
>>721615541>X4 is peakI got this on like the ps3 - ps1 classics and have it on my vita still. I really loved it, it got me into this whole thing. always wanted to play them all the way through
>>721615614true and real friend
>>721615562Its the original, idiot. Just with a fully playable Zero.
>>721615562Consider the undub for X4.
>>721608562https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0V7ulolvno
>>721608562dashing jumping off walls with double tap is fucking retarded (albeit somehow doable)
>>721615562Consider the italian fandub for X4.
>>721615187>am I wrong that the majority of people will find a recommended order for a first playthrough?you're not wrong, most people don't really want to engage with the open endedness of 8 available levels and figuring out weaknesses because it's time consumingif you're playing blind you'll end up having to replay levels more because you won't know what you need to get certain items and such
>>721610394>>721611325>>721611379Knuckle-dragging retards, claw grip actually made for mongoloids, just hold the controller properly. L1 dash is objectively the best button to use as it frees your right hand to use only charged and jumping.>X1 THE BEST!!!!No not even close besides the OST, X2 is a better game and better to 100% and the replayability is kino. X hunter stage 1 ost is one of the best tracks in the franchise.X2 > X4 > X1 > X3 > X8 > X5 > X6 >X7
>>721616378Yeah I mostly just wanna experience them. I'm weirdly psyched for the gba z series and I don't know why. I'ma get there
>>721616414I was the second guy you tagged arguing for L1 dash dickhead. take it back. and I know I'm objectively right. It was such an easy and intuitive solution
>>721616619It was a misclick!!!
>>721616551>I'm weirdly psyched for the gba z series and I don't know whythey are the best the action platformer has to offer, make sure you get to them and start after you play 5 as intended, the Z games actually have a story and it's a very cool experience after playing the X games
>>721616731how essential is this missing feature not in the gba us versions that's in the collection on steam? because I really don't wanna ever fucking buy that
>>721616731>the Z games actually have a story and it's a very cool experience after playing the X gamesthat's what I'm going for my dude. I remember when I tried x it seemed a lot harder too interestingly enough.
>>721616685mhmm. I'm watching you buddy.
>>721616856if you mean the checkpoint system, it's not essential at all, I would recommend playing without it even if you wanted to play the collectionthe stages are designed with the ranking system in mind and they're a much lesser experience if you ignore that whole side of it
>>721617003no there's apparently some bizarre e-reader jap only feature where youg et costmetics or something that is available in the collection but you use achievement points for them. I don't know if that's worth it but I dislike not having a full thing even though it's free
>>721617069only in z3 I tihnk
>there "people" in this very thread who use R dashhorrifying
>>721617069oh, that's a work around to get 1 or 2 items that are other wise unobtainable in z3 If I remember correctly, it's not a big deal unless you really want to get absolutely everything for some reason, I think it does something for one of the ZX games too maybe
Saturn X4 > PS X4
>>721617278saturn emulation is kinda dogshit though. there's always so much input lag. duckstation just works. but what are the differences?
>>721617457https://github.com/StrikerX3/Ymir
>>721617547explain a little. been using beetle retroarch.
>>721617194probably because some indie 2D platformer uses R2 for dashing
>>721617928>beetle retroarchThat's just Mednafen, which has been abandoned. Ymir was released this year and despite that it's making progress so fast that it's now the best Saturn emulator.
>>721618115ok. downloaded. I'll check it out later
>>721608514just beat x1-x4 and pretend others don't exist.
