Rick Astley is also confirmed.

I'd offer a link, but y'know, none of you would probably wanna click it.

I had totally just forgot how much you look like BILL FREAKING GATES until now.

I'm also thinking about that stuff you find in ZXA, like the pinwheel.

I get what you're saying but I don't want a tie-in, so to me, that's pushing it a little.

Yeah, I'm FINE with it connecting to ZX (it can explain a few things), as long as it keeps that vague feeling Legends already has. I knew it was originally separate.

Do you think they'll port over Legends 1 and 2 to the 3DS as well?

That would be quite a treat.

Indeed, but it's now on a Nintendo console. Could they really put a Sony game on there?

I'm unfortunately thinking no, but then again... we DID have Mega Man 64.

: Morgan Guyer  30 September 2010, 03:00:23

Also, I would like to something referenced from either Classic, X, Zero, or ZX.

I always thought it was weird that no one ever mentioned Classic Megaman in the X series. He was a champion of the people, and the time gap is only 100 years or so.

No.  Nothing outside of easter eggs like the "Mega Man Tv show" on the TV in 2 or the posters and what not on the wall.  If there is ANY direct connection in the actual plot there will be quite a few unhappy people.  Just imagine, once Trigger gets back to Earth he has to fight his way deep into the ground to the core of the old master system which is really BIOMETAL ZX AXL OMG!!!! AND HE'S PROTECTED BY CYBER ELFS ROFFLES!!!  Yeah.  That's the kind of ##### I'M afraid they'll pull.  And quite frankly, Zero/ZX was such trash from the plot stand point that trying to actively include it or even REFERENCE it would be the antithesis of the fun and charming world/scenario Legends pionerred (notice how bad Battle Network got when it moved away from the same feel and tried to go all "evil energy" ##### in the last 3 games?).

From what I can tell, Elysium is something I'm guessing X originally made for peace. Aside from that, here's the connection I want from ZX storyline.

ZX: Humans and Reploids fight again. Humans (really, kids) get the power to fight, transform, and merge into other robots. Defeat villans over and over again, fight Rita and Zedd, insert something tragic, humans and reploids die (preferably from a great flood), and... that's it.

Anything a digger finds should can be technology from ZX or something I guess, but nothing like a model or ANYTHING. Direct references to some of the old plot should be buried and remain buried, and Legends should just move forward. It's done fine with that.

Heck, I originally thought Legends was a separate reality to begin with, so with that in mind, it should keep that in tact. Having a "Wily" in the game is funny, but if they find something like digging up Zero's corpse...

no. just no.

---

Just to add to why I mean by "remain buried", I'm not just talking about models and items specific to a past series. Cyber elves, Elf wars, or anything like that should either remain extremely vague if mentioned or not mentioned at all. Legends starts off with this feeling that you're living in a world with a huge history to it but nobody knows what it is. I'd like to see that stay, even if they're about to end the series. If they have to explain something, keeping something vague isn't hard and may not be bad at all.

As much as I liked the Legends gameplay, I really wanted Capcom to improve the engine and make something that "runs a little better".

I don't know how to describe it, but I kinda wanna play something like a cross between The Legend of Zelda and Mega Man. MML2 almost got that, except it didn't have enough land exploring for my likes. Plus I can practically kill anything by just running in a circle and spamming buster shots.

With that said, I certainly hope this is what Inafune means when he says he'll be working on it. If it's gonna be something better, I'm ALL for it.

Of course you could also get what Rez said with the chance this could be mediocre or downright stupid.

> DRAW MORE STUFF

After playing with mine for the weekend...

That kind of discussion is not allowed here...

Expecting bull#####.

Yeah I'm expecting bullcrap.

*reads article*

... wait. Now that I think about it, it might be true if the source really is from the same guy who rumored Mega Man 9.

Since I'm not much of an RE fan, I am REALLY happy to see Spider-Man. Although I'd figure he'd make it.

I'd say MMU is the best MMPU sequel we're gonna get.

Mainly because of what I mentioned, you now have a larger screen to customize with. MMPU had a very limited small screen vertically.

That's my main beef with handheld Mega Man games anyway, aside from Battle Network and the Gameboy games.

If it's anything like Powered Up, I would say it's not crappy. If anything, better.

Because they have at least got a full screen and not that crappy one we had to deal with on the PSP. At least, I hope, since it's on a real console.

What still bothered me about MMPU though was SOME of the limitations like mentioned. The packs was just the tip of the iceberg. You can't change the water level, can't make a boss corridor to the boss room, can't have Wily Bosses, can't have a big vertical stage, etc.

It's just stuff that limited my creativity and I hated that.

I was thinking that, and I mean the good one. USA.

I hate Axl though...

---

Okay, I spoiled myself with that ending.

Massimo says it was easy?

...

MASSIMO says IT WAS EASY!?

I'm sorry, but THAT'S A LOAD.

I'm just going to guess the original Mega Man cast is already in it I guess. Tron Bonne, Classic Mega Man, Roll, and... I guess Servbot, but I could really care less about him as a fighter.

And Bad Box Art Mega Man would be awesome.

And maybe as a costume change, you play as the Mega Man 2 box art? I would love that please.

I can say it was good...

But not great or anything. I can at least enjoy playing the game with little to few issues concerning it. If you try to take the story seriously (or pretend there IS a valid story), it'll probably just ruin the experience.

Replaying Command Mission, and I'm back up to Botos. Any hints and suggestions? What level should be at?

My main party:

X
Lv. 22
Scope Buster MKII
Justice Missle
Force Missles
X Heart Force Metal
Armor +3 Force Metal
Armor +3 Force Metal
Assassin Mind Force Metal

Zero
Lv. 22
Doubletooth
Heat Haze
Heat Haze
Armor +3 Force Metal
Armor +3 Force Metal
Shield +3 Force Metal

Cinnamon
Lv. 21
Angel's Hand
Combat Absorber
Energy Field
Gain WE +5 Force Metal
Speed +3 Force Metal
Speed +3 Force Metal

Decided to play an unfinished game of Command Mission, from the very beginning. I'm up to the desert.

Oh. Right. That's where Botos is. The reason why I stopped playing.

Help me.

Well. I guess Duo kept his promise. He came back.

IN KOREA.

He basically has a set of attacks.

1) Charge at you.
2) Jump above you, and slam down, creating a shock.
3) Concrete shot.

He selects one of those attacks and uses it. After it's finished, he selects another one, even if it's the same one, and uses it. It's a "random" pattern, but a pattern still. You know what attack is coming obviously the second you notice he's leaning forward, bracing to jump, or pointing his buster though.

Kinda like playing Rock, Paper, Scissors.

I know right? I mean, Really? She even takes DOUBLE DAMAGE from a buster shot.

If I could grade them all, Splash Woman is definitely the easiest. Just move left and right, jump and shoot at her when she dives down, jump in a swift motion dodging fishes and shoot her. She goes down in 14 shots.

Concrete Man is annoying, but he's kinda average in difficulty. Just avoid concrete and jump over his charge attacks.

Galaxy Man, just run away, and shoot at him when he lands. Easy.

Jewel Man is tricky and I can't really describe how to beat him. You just shoot and jump repetitively until you luckily either land a hit or you hit a jewel, and if you do hit a jewel, you need to jump quickly to dodge it. (Black Hole Bomb makes this fight a joke though)

Plug Man is ANNOYING. Definitely a hard boss. I just shoot and dodge attacks until he corners me. Then I bust out Jewel Satelite for defense until he jumps so I can hit him with it and run away.

Tornado Man is also average. Just move left and right to dodge tornadoes, or if you're really good, dodge through them by jumping in between them. Shoot him when you can.

Magma Man is an easy pattern. Just stay fairly close and jump to avoid, while shooting him. While his pattern is fairly easy though, he's still pretty hard.

Hornet Man is average, but kinda difficult if you let the hornets overwhelm you with grenades and tommy guns. Just shoot them rapidly until at least one or none are left. Then unload on Hornet Man until he shoots more hornets. Don't forget to dodge the one hornet while shooting Hornet Man as he runs around like an idiot.

Yeah. I mean, you CAN take damage in those spots to make it easier but it's not really necessary. Plus you have Rush coil and later Rush Jet to make it across those gaps. It's not that hard.

Well I like most of the Megas songs and this would be one on the list.

Found a good quality version. You've Sparked a War

Listen, unless you hate Mega Man 3's music. If so, you sadden me.

Chron, Chron, Chron... You mustn't be hard on the boy. He was obviously asking a serious question if the Legends stage is for Zero.EXE and Roll.EXE.

I'll answer that.

*ahem*

You've Sparked a War - The Megas

I love it.

Yeaaaaah I'd say Trigger is in it if that is so.

I mean, it's be PRETTY stupid if it wasn't someone from Mega Man Legends. Imagine a Legends stage dedicated to MegaMan.exe.

It really smells like they're trying to brew up a Legends revival too. I hope so.

Obviously, Arthur is going to be in it.

Yeah, I literally use H everywhere.

Rez would also say the same statement.

Have you ever played a Zelda game?

I was thinking the same thing.

I can't be that picky with ZX. The models in ZX were VERY good as well as having their own function. In ZXA, I just felt like the boss transformations were a little bonus. Some had fun uses, but for the most part, they weren't necessary. You didn't want to play as a Boss for most of the game, unless you're just fooling around (which I did for quite a few of them and enjoyed it. Others... not so much).

So I can understand the hate for ZXA when you talk about the Boss Transformations, but the models aren't bad.

I went to see Dragonball Evolution in theatres just to see how bad it was.

Of course, it's a "harmless" kind of bad movie. It isn't terrible, but amusing, just as long as you don't bring your expectations to the movie. Nobody needs to make a parody of this movie, because they pretty much did the job themselves. I especially like the FINAL BATTLE. All 2 seconds of it.

I have a better idea. John, try this out. Try playing Mega Man X7.

Every time you feel annoyed, take a drink.

... to be honest, I can't tell if you if that's a drinking game I made up, or just method of coping.

I must be the only one who actually liked* ZXA a bit more than ZX

*This is a very close call. It's so close, I probably could change my opinion in an instant. I mean, Model X isn't in ZXA, and that is one of the better models...

It's okay (I wasn't pointing any fingers), I just don't get why there's a discussion going about "who knew" like it really matters.

Also: Ha to ASR, John, and TheOnly. ASR for the funny.

I thought it was okay.

just... okay.

Really though, when this thread was created, there was no identification as to what MegaMan Universe is. Other than a few small details, we got a poster that Xero posted of X for what we know now is Mega Man Online. John posted a trailer to Mega Man Universe, but since everything is so VAGUE, there's barely anything we can tell about these games.

In short: STOP POINTING FINGERS AT EACH OTHER LIKE YOU'RE RIGHT AND EVERYONE IS WRONG. It's just silly.

Thanks guys.

I'm letting John hijack this thread now, just because our birthdays are so close.

Happy birthday dood.

... I thought they were the same thing.

Then again, that doesn't make sense anymore. We have 2 trailers, and one shows (what I think is) the Mega Man 10 commercial kid. If it was a Korea only game, he wouldn't be in it.

I honestly don't care what topic we talk about either in. I'm still confused.

---

Okay, looked over the topic. This whole thread is just one huge identity confusion. The majority of this thread has mainly been about Rockman/MegaMan Online though.

I suggest changing the thread name to that, and I'll make a topic for Mega Man Universe.

http://www.gamespot.com/news/6269312.html?tag=latestheadlines%3Btitle%3B1

There. Discuss.

I hate all of you.

Take one down, pass it to me, cause it's my BIRTHDAY.

I'm 21.

In 2 days, John will be 21 too.

Happy birthday to the both of us! (Only one of us will be drinking)

Actually, only Albert is a self-glorified knob that declared it's "Model Albert", but Model A says "That's not my name!"

It's up for debate, but I think it's clear as day that the whole "Model Albert" deal is just to stir up drama for the sake of (crappy) storytelling. It's Axl thrown together no matter which way you look at it.

I'm too lazy to e-mail. Can I just submit them here?

It annoys me.

Also the fact Bass gets a cape for me.

Maybe it's NOT a cross. Maybe it's just showing a time parodox between the Maverick Hunters and the Classic Series, because Wily has unleashed Zero to ki-

I guess I could submit mine.

Except for Chill Man. Capcom kinda pulled that one now.

You don't know what you're talking about, Kayoos

Of course I don't. It's not like you've ever sparred with a bear.

Everything on Television stinks.

Turn off the TV, go out, ride a bike, play basketball, or go punch a grizzly bear. You'll thank me later, and save money on that electric bill.
