This is what a winner looks like.

>>747543356I don't dislike him but I do think Valve Man was infinitely better.
>>747543356You people had four correct choices and still got it wrong.
>>747543356I feel like it would be a lot better if it just weren't for the "hair"wtf is going on there?
>>747543356Mofo looks like that one maverick from X5 the rose one.
>>747544050Capcom got to make the final call. Given how much they mentioned liking his design when going over the finalists he was probably already selected as the winner well in advance.
>>747544491Giving Classic zesty robot Kakyoin.
>>747544050The only time people got to vote was from the 20 that were selected that could be voted on.
>>747544050Sweeper Woman didn't have a chance because of Twinkle Girl and Sand Woman. Cactus Man didn't have a chance because of Sand Woman. Game was rigged from the start.
Valve Man was the best choice easily wtf.
>>747544905Given the stage achievement for Cleanser Mans stage specifically mentions cleaning up dirt he was likely just too much of an aesthetics mismatch for what they already designed. Presumably also what took out Juggle Man.
>>747543556>20:20It's funny how in one of these threads, there was an anon who kept complaining about how there wasn't any actual indication that there was suffering happening in the universe of X shown in the games and it was all just mentioned in passing through conversations or lore dumps or whatnot, and yet these cutscenes were actually part of Maverick Hunter X on the PSP, and you see Dr. Cain getting obliterated in real time.
>>747545052The contest was like a good 5-6 months ago so that's plenty of time to do any boss + stage rework.
>>747544689>>747544793I was referring to Capcom, but I should have been more clear.
I won't lie, while I do agree we were robbed big time, Valve Man really does look like he should be in Mega Man X
>>747545070Which is weird because he helped forming the Repliforce in X4.
>>747545070Being completely fair MHX was done as a remake of X1 to supposedly have the early games meld better with the rest of the series. And anyone saying there was no sign of suffering is full of shit. Humans going through shit, though, is another matter.
>>747545137Historically for these contests Capcom has always designed the stages first and then cherry picked the best fitting Robot Masters from the submissions. The stage and weapon were likely already made before the contest was even announced.
>>747545178Honestly, he's a better fit in Classic. If you put him in X, he and his posse would be delegated to mechaniloids.
>>747545070MHX is a different continuity. As should be obvious from the fact Cain would be too busy being dead for his on screen appearances in X2 and X3.
>>747544443I thought it was supposed to resemble a feather duster
>>747545214He actually didn't, that's just western manual jank. Repliforce was originally just more like a vigilante group that ended up growing too big and getting some support from the government to help the Maverick Hunters and the problems going on. Only it turned out that Repliforce was worse at the job than the hunters but by then they were already like a PMC while the Hunters were like the police.
>>747545443I see. Thanks for clarifying.
>>747543556It was supposed to be her time till she gets replaced by Alia
>>747545178>>747545293Give him a human like face and he'd work but he still looks better suited for OG Megaman
>>747543356He looks like a Lysol product
Man imagine if this game has proper 2d sprites
>>747543356Valve > Sweeperwo > Cactus > Recycle > Cleanser > JuggleFuck Capcom.
>>747546854>anything being below cleanseshitSurely you jest.
>>747545989>gone X5>only issues within hunter base happen in X3 (internal attack) and X4 (war)>X1 + X2 take place around 6 monthsSo was she killed by Mac, Repliforce shootout, or Iris?
>>747547071Or Double.
>>747543356I like the more abstract Robot Masters that allow them to do more interesting things than just being element based, like with him water obviously comes into play, but so does chemicals, bubbles, scrubbing and spinning actions and stuff like that.
>>747546805Your 2d sprites.
>>747544720https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqc_27cpQ80
>>747544880>Sweeper Woman didn't have a chance because of Twinkle Girl and Sand WomanHonestly there wouldn't have been a problem with 3 girls but whatever.
How come twinkle girl gets to be a girl but mega man isn't mega boy
>>747548117Probably the same reason American Kirby is angry.
>>747548117Rolls off the tongue better than twinkle woman. Her design's like a head and shoulder taller so she's probably more like middle/high school.
>>747548439>taller than protomanHey kid wanna /ss/?
Shinnamon's E-Tanks...
Don't worry bros, Valveman WILL retvrn in a future titleCapcom knows he's too cool to just toss and is keepin' 'em in their back pockettrust
>>747550212I mean, they did salvage Blade Man years and years later...
>>747549052kind of weird to call her tits e-tanks when she has something more effective than e-tanks equipped inside
I want to see the polling numbers for the twenty that they let people vote on.
>>747543356This isn't real right.The fucking mascots in the actual detergent and cleaners isle are better than this
>>747551206It's real.
>>747550212The question is when that game will be.
>>747551206>>747552449where people actually expecting better from crapcom? or is it just that everyone under 23 on this site is too much of a zoomer/alphoomer to remember how shit capcom is over the latest zelda melty?They DMCAd shanghai.exe over some fucking temp sprites the dev forgot from holdovers They ruin countless projects and cancel good gamesthey re-positioned the entire company posture to chase westoid big bucks with RE5 even with the massive success of the BN franchise.they re-released what was obviously a modern slop megaman game as a AAA game with its loli roll before they even deigned to make anything newthey have not repaid anyone anything for the decades the fans keep the series brand relevant while shamelessly profiting off of it.they are the easiest picture I can set next to the evils of copyright short of disney. Even nintendo does a better job than this, at least unilaterally nuking everything instead of also lazily subsisting off of fans work.
>>747543356I'm honestly convinced that nobody wanted this fucker except for one dev or artist on the dev team, and as a result he was forcibly added in to the finalists just so they had an excuse to pick him by default.
>>747543556Honestly the X timeline gets too depressing for me after a certain point. I think X5 went too far with having the world get destroyed
>>7475480093 girls out of 8 is a weirdly specific fraction. 1, 2, and 4 all work fine.
>>747553789>they re-positioned the entire company posture to chase westoid big bucksThat was a major part because of Conman.>they re-released what was obviously a modern slop megaman game>re-released
>>7475539563 will be a good fraction in this, the first Mega Man game to feature 12 Robot Masters
>>747553845I blame Doctor Light the most.Doctor Cain would be second most responsibly for fucking the earth because he thought it was a brilliant idea to make a bunch of reploids based on X but doing it really lazily thus resulting in the need for Maverick Hunters to be made.And finally in third place for who fucked the world the most, Dr. Wily. He made Zero and created his wonderful virus. Without that virus, Sigma wouldn't have gone crazy and wouldn't kick off so much shit. There would still be mavericks (thanks Dr Cain), but it would never have gotten as bad as it does.
>>747553845The X timeline is like 2 different timelines that occur. The better timeline just follows the X stuff past X6. If you follow the X5/6->Z->ZX pipeline then yeah it gets pretty depressing. I saw someone in another thread even calculate the numbers and point out that the X->Z->ZX basically follows the X5 bad end where eurasia nuked the world.
>>747543556I love X giving Sigma his scars with the fucking shining finger
>>747554232The timeline split theory is retarded, its all one timeline. If they kept with the original plot for Zero 1 with X being the villain, it would make sense, but they changed it and X knows who Zero is and its just a copy X who is the big bad, thus making that ending for X5 unrelated to the Zero series. Also, Zero getting sealed could literally take place at any point in time.The only really confirmed alternate timeline is Command Mission.
Are you ready for his return?
>>747554675Who?
>>747554610>The timeline split theory is retarded, its all one timelineIt isn't.>If they kept with the original plot for Zero 1 with X being the villain, it would make sense, but they changed it and X knows who Zero is and its just a copy X who is the big bad, thus making that ending for X5 unrelated to the Zero series.That actually doesn't matter since regardless if X was the real villain or not because the whole point was Inafune wanting X5 to be the last X game, even though X6 was what actually helped his dumb ass narratively.>Also, Zero getting sealed could literally take place at any point in time.We actually do get Zero sealing himself in X6 which helped give X->Z some leeway, but that same ending has the conversation Zero's having hint that it's immediately after what happened in X6. Meanwhile Zero isn't going to sleep in the other X endings. Nevermind that X7 just throws Zero sleeping after right out the window.>The only really confirmed alternate timeline is Command Mission.The only thing that was said about CM was that it's 22XX isn't the same as MMZ's 22XX. And even then, Capcom let 3 different occasions call MMZ the alternate timeline.
>>747554675I'm ready for Bass' return yeah
>>747547151I can appreciate that with zesty kakyoin but he wasn't my first pick.
>>747545140yeah the final call was done by capcom to prevent ballot stuffing, because otherwise you just know the winner would have been some kind of gay meme instead of anything creative.
Gonna play MM3 again, which robot master should I pick first?
>>747560385
>>747555275Like that anon mentioned Zero could've gone to sleep at any point. The X6 scene doesn't state it happens immediately after the main game.
>>747543356Capcom sure loves its fagbots.
Why did Capcom let people vote for designs that clearly would be eliminated from the top 6 just because they coincided with robots already in the game? I mean goddamn show some fucking decency and at least don't include them in the top 20 that people could actually vote for.
>>747561728Twitter engagement.
>>747560385Shadow man
>>747543356>soap-themed robot master>provokes seething, frothing rage in the average /v/irgin
>>747560385Magnet Man, his level has serious "first stage vibes" IMO.
>>747545178>Valve Man really does look like he should be in Mega Man XThat's probably WHY he didn't get picked.
>>747560895The implication is that it happens immediately after X6. There's also the conversation with the reploid scientist asking what's going to happen with Zero gone and Zero says X is there. Now Axl exists and that's one of the things that doesn't exist or is involved in MMZ.
>>747555426>Defeat Wily >Bass shows up for one final round Gonna be fun to witness
>>747543356It's not even charmingly garish. Bro is just fuckin' ugly. I must agree with the majority here that Sweeper Woman mogs hard and should've won.
Funniest part about the leaks was seeing people pretend they're fine with the choice>"Oooh yeaahh Cleanser Man... congrats... personally I liked Valve Man more but I'm so happy for you haha..."Insane doormat behaviour but I'm not expecting anything else from Capcom fans
>>747553956Speaking as(probably) an autistic person, that's just straight autism right there. Who the FUCK cares, nigga?
>>747568562>jobber gets his ass kicked>desperately tries to assert dominance by hijacking the plot from Wily>jobs even harder
>>747554675>Duo>doing ANYTHING EVERAll Space Cops Are Jobbers.
>>747543356>Capcom>choosing the gayest looking optionI'm shocked
>>747543356He looks like he's wearing a fucking DIAPER
>>747568814Being fair Capcom was picking one of the 6 and he was one of them. Not much else but either deal with it or go full riots. Nevermind that most contest winners get their designs altered so that's not even going to be his final look.
>>747570814>and he was one of themAre we actually sure about that? Knowing big corpos they might've just lied and picked him from the start
>>747571148Who knows but he was one of the finalists.
I know we're all pretty pissed because they did literally pick the worst possible option, but for all we know, Cleanser Man's final design probably won't even look like this
>>747570814Wouldn't be surprised if they altered him to look a bit less like Tundra Man.
>>747571310We? I like his design just fine
>>747543573My exact thoughts. I do think it's nice that anything other than the basic "haha maid with vacuum" idea everybody initially had won but Valve Man & Cactus Man were just so sick. Cleanser Man's not bad though. He's very Tundra Man-esque.
>>747571310God I hope not.
>>747571318less tundra more kakyoin because why not
>>747543356I am still super excited for mm12. But I dare say that the actual, actually worst contestant won.
>>747566892>implicationYeah and X5 was supposed to be the real ending. Just accept they're the same continuity.
>>747572480X5 was where Inafune wanted the ending to be but literally did nothing but say one thing to the production crew. Release MMZ and the story isn't making sense anyway because X5 ends with no Zero body in sight. X6 ironically fixed that.>Just accept they're the same continuity.Then we'd be lying. Especially when Inticreates couldn't even keep its own continuity straight.
>>747554232>I saw someone in another thread even calculate the numbersgimme the numbers
>>747573110>If you want to follow the MMZ branch then basically if you use the current human population of 8.3 billion and reduced that to what was left of Neo Arcadia at MMZ (20 to 30 million) then Eurasia + Elf Wars reduced humanity by about near 100(99.64)% which is near extinction. In that case Eurasia must have knocked the population to about 75 million which is another near extinction event of 99.1% Especially since the Elf Wars knocked the remaining population by 60%. Just based on numbers, MMZ tries following the X5 bad end.They didn't say that Z4 reduced the 20-30m by another 10m thanks to Ragnarok.
I always called it Bubble Lead (Lead as in the element on the periodic table).
>>747574456understandable confusion
>>747543356We just got a flamboyant robot last game. Can we not wait a bit before shoving in another?
>>747576680You had an 8 year respite
Put him in Dual Override as one of the bosses leading up to Boat Man, you cowards.
>>747578056Nigga Man?
