>takes away bosses having weaknesses
Oh cool. A fangame based on X2.
>>745981615did anyone ever use the bosses powers in other place other than the bosses themselves?
>>745981615So... that's and great and all... won't play it or anything but cool, I guess... but surely Corrupted will release soon, right?
>>745981615>takes away bosses having weaknessesNot a bad idea, those usually turned boss fights into free wins. Maybe they'll balance weapons to be useful on general this way
Every boss has a weakness thoughbeit
>>745983662Classic Series did weakness best since it doesn't make them a free win with all the ridiculous stunlock, you just do some extra damageI'm so glad the Classic series is the only Mega Man platformer series that's still around. They got it right the first time and all the follow up series were dogshit
>>745984582yeah it's called the X-Buster
>>745981615if you mean animation loops then yeah, damage wise they didn't take much damage in 1.0 but was fixed in 1.004
>megaman fan game>it's based on anything BUT 8 (aka the natural progression of the series visually)>megaman X fangame>it's based on 1-3 where 4-6 is where the natural progression of the series left off (X7 is shit)What gives?Are these fan devs too retarded to deal with Saturn/PS1 pixel era graphics?
>>745981615Real niggas beat the whole game with the buster shot anyway
>>745984967X4 was bad and so was every other X game post-X3. It's just not something people are ready to talk about. I loved the first three games but dropped X4 almost instantaneously.
>>745984967>Are these fan devs too retarded to deal with Saturn/PS1 pixel era graphics?Unironically yeah. It's easier to just reuse SNES assets and edit them than to work on the more detailed sprites of the PS1 era and make pre-rendered backgrounds.
You lose the hadoken if you close the game
I think I made things too hard on myself by not realizing that rookie difficulty was "normal" mode.It goes: Normal, Hard, InsanityBut I thought it went: Easy, Normal, Hard. Just use the fucking words you mean not this bullshit how am I supposed to know what Hunter means. Is that better or worse than Veteran? Reee. Then I realized what mode I was supposed to be playing on and everything was a joke so I just watched CalebHart's video on it which was really good actually, cheered me up quite a bit to see the Mega Man Xpert getting fucked over in various ways just like I did. If he thought it was bullshit then it was bullshit. And it was funny as fuck watching the game freeze when he beat a boss and then he had to redo all the Sigma Stages again and he rants the whole time nonstop about how bullshit that was it was the funniest thing I have seen in a while.Here's his meltdown right when it starts:https://youtu.be/h-BEAPb0aic?t=4454
>>745984967>Are these fan devs too retarded to deal with Saturn/PS1 pixel era graphics?Yes, 8bit shit is just easier to work with and even for X games either they take forever to release or just have easy sprite edits like Regenesis did.
>>745984598Weaknesses in classic still do so much damage that you can usually win even if you don't dodge anything
>>745985020X5 solos the SNES era. You are not ready for that conversation
The bosses do have weaknesses. The weakness damage is merely not as significant as it is in a standard X game. Any boss that takes 2+ damage from an ability, that's their weakness. If you get the buster upgrade to charge those skills you'll see their bars wipe.Granted, some Mavericks are better defeated with the buster anyway. Like Bog Trotter is weak to the fire attack. But it's just as simple to blast him with the charged buster instead since he moves so much. But charged fire ends that maverick kinda quickly.>>745982949There are places where you can use maverick attacks to open new areas. Some are weird though. like the icy door in the apes stage wants the ice attack, not a fire attack.>>745982949There are places to use maverick powers but they're kinda weird. Like the apes space fortress has that ice wall. But it wants...ice instead of fire to break? Weird.
>>745981615Honestly, I don’t really like using boss weaknesses when it just stun loops the boss. The weaknesses should be an advantage, not an instant win
>>745983382laser and sand are the best weapons to use against normal enemies, also charged laser is a reflect barrier that rebounds projectiles that hit you and charged rock is barrier that hits most enemies.
>>745985221Not really, they just kinda put you on the same level as the boss. You do about as much damage to the boss as the boss does to you. You can still die to Elecman because he still only take three hits to kill you and his attack has a lot more range than yours
>>745985321Oh, it said I failed the captcha and when I tried again it didn't show what I typed the first time so I redid it. Then posted what wasn't there anyway.I should stick to being a faggot lurker.
>>745984598>with all the ridiculous stunlock7, 8, &Bass had the Robot Masters usually flinch when their weakness was against them for most of them.
how the fuck was I supposed to know
FUCK
>>745983382Only during Mega Man & Bass as MM. Subweapons are especially worthless in X because you can just skip most enemies with your increased mobility.
why does the squirrel have tits
There should be more areas to use the uppercut and ground kick.
>>745981615Is it just me, or is this game really stingy with health? You take a single hit, and you're stuck with that damage the rest of the level. Hell, even when you do get health drops, they barely restore any health.
>>745987361I noticed it as well. It is a pain in the ass to farm health for subtanks and they only heal half your bar
>>745987361>>745987495Use Special Weapons throughout the stages, they make health drop like candy, and ones like the sand weapon are way more fun than buster is in this game
>>745987736nospecial weapons are special and if I just fucking use them a lot that's not special
>>745984967You can't expect fan games to mimic Capcom's sprite work when it was at its peak. It's just too fluid and detailed for someone just working on a hobbyist project.
>>745985439Elecman is a contender for the hardest robot master. I don't think any of the others come near his damage output. Most of them are a total joke with their weaknesses unless the weapon is one of the extremely awkward ones to use. Like losing to Shadowman with top spin is conceivable, but that's because top spin sucks. I will say that the early classic approach where the boss take a billion damage from their weakness is better than the later thing where they show some long invincible damage animation which stunlocks the boss but often kills them slower than the buster. Both trivialize the fight but at least the former is over quickly.
>>745981615They changed it so using the right weapon on them does three points of damage instead of two.You're still better off using charged buster shots on them.
I wonder what a Mega Man X boomer shooter/actually good 3D version of X7 would look like. I would try making one myself, but I cannot into level design.
>>7459850202> 1 = 4 > 3 > 5 > 8 > not worth playing
The game turned into a slideshow and crashed when I beat the first Sigma Stage boss and I haven't gone back. I'm on .03 or whatever though so apparently I need to update again
>>745986014It's easier for me to start at the block below where you're at and double jump + uppercut
>>745994234If its who im thinking off, dont kill him with the buster.
>>745989841based
>>745981615Has anyone tried the Android version? I'm quite surprised they even made one.
>>745994332The one where you can get crushed by the moving blocks?
>>745984598You're joking, right? Exploiting weaknesses in classic = instant win. Flash stopper on quick man = dead quick man. Elec beam on ice man = dead ice man. Top spin on shadow man = raped shadow man. Like the weapons absolutely fucking BTFO whatever boss is weak to them. You ever even used Toad rain on bright man doad? pharaoh shot on ring man?
>>745994550Don't bother, classicfags think their series is flawless and everything else is bad
>>745994476Yea that's the one. Its a bug.Do not kill him with the buster or the game crashes.
>>745994831who releases a game without testing what happens when you kill a regular boss with the default weapon
>>745985321> Any boss that takes 2+ damage from an abilityand why would i ever use those if the charge buster is easier to hit AND deals more damage?
i beat it, sucked that the version i used wasn't saving the hadouken. x8 16 bit was better but this game was ok too. i don't know if there was any point to the ranks also
>>745995569Pretty sure ranks are just for cheevos
>fall in a pit during sigma levels but don't die and have to resetoof. if I had died at least I would go back to respawn. a reset costs me everything. I might drop the game.
That happened to me fighting vile, I was just hurled off the map and had to reset. Not a very long set of levels but still sucked
>Start game on veteran>charge shots aren't enough to one shot small mobsok?>one shot takes away 1/3 of my healthalright>enemies can attack from offscreenhuhGuess veteran isn't for me
upcoming mega-man off's:https://store.steampowered.com/app/3715040/DekaDuck/https://store.steampowered.com/app/3986230/Radiant_Starlets/Hard Mode: You can only pick one.
>>745997065>charge shots aren't enough to one shot small mobssilly mistake. better games already figured this one out. nobody likes wading through enemies with 3x health but 3x the number of enemies makes you feel like rambo
>>745997503Gross
>>745999716I don't believe that last part, you're pulling my leg. Nobody gets it on the 2nd try
>>745997503I don't like the artstyles for either of these.
>>745984967Why don't they use MM&B then since it's 16-bit?
>>745981615Bosses do have weaknesses though, even Sigma.
>>745984967Do you have any idea how fucking big those spritesheets get?
>>746000896>floppy toes
>>745997503Gravity Circuit 2
>>745997503God these look bad, man.
