So, there's something different about this screenshot.


Adrian made me, MegaBossMan, Rhythm_BCA, CHAOS_FANTAZY, and TheDoc community moderators.
This may or may not be a Bad Thing.


I expect the tribute and sacrifices by tomorrow night. And I have very distinguished tastes.



Very



Veeeery distinguished tastes.

But yea PM us if something's up, like somebody's off flooding the forums and we haven't noticed the more-than-three new posts, but don't expect us to be able to muck with the code or anything like that. We don't have Root privileges or something like that.

I've promoted this thread to a news post so everyone can see it. I think it's important for players to know who they can look to for assistance. Hope you don't mind. :)

So let's have a big old idea throw-around or something at
uh
I don't know what time Adrian uses, so let's go with 10 PM EST.

That's tonight, June 27th, 2014.




There's still going to be a necropost around a week after this is posted, I have money riding on it.

EDIT: Apparently this is going to be a thing, so let's do these at 7 PM EST on Fridays. Cancelled due to official event replacing.

So I felt like sharing this, even though few of you know what it means and none of you care.


This is from just a little while ago when I managed to get all sorts of wonderful goodies like upgrades from a tournamentidy thing in a game not one of you recognizes. I have since gone power-mad, and will be busy cackling in a corner wearing a straight-jacket over MORE NUMBERS for the next few days.


Also, we need a more specific "Non-Prototype Things" area.

I'm trying to find a way to use Gold BassCross in Battle Network 5 DS's Team Colonel half instead of Team Protoman, since Colonel is so much cooler than ProtoMan, but the Action Replay code I found to force Gold BassCross leaves the +20% health, has a DarkSword without the permanent health drain or the DarkMega risk for the charge shot somehow, and the Gold BassCross sprite. Any way I can get proper Gold BassCross without having to play Team Protoman?

The Blaze and Burn abilities of the Flame Core Robot Masters are underwhelming at best, being equal or lesser than the Boost and Break abilities that don't require Flame Core.

For reference here is Attack Boost.

And here is Attack Blaze.


We can cut the Four WE cost on Attack Blaze down to 2 WE with a Flame Core, equal to Attack Boost, but it's still 5% less for the actual boost. Even if they can be cut down to only 1 WE with their respective Robot Masters, it's still not worth bothering with when you could give your whole team that 10% with Attack Support, increase your Attack by 5% more with Attack Boost, or increase your Attack by six times as much with Attack Mode.

It could be much more useful at 20%, and some people might be willing to spend the 2 extra WE for using it on a Copy core to get a sort of Attack Mode Lite without as much of a downside. As it is though, it's not really worth using the Blaze/Burn abilities, even on their native Robot Masters.

If it's not the Fourth Armor you're wrong.

Really though tell which and why, for instance, "The Fourth Armor, because the Plasma Buster is amazing against minibosses and I can spam all the admittedly underwhelming special weapons forever with the Head Parts."

EDIT: You can only name armors that can be assembled in the main stages without codes.
In other words, no Ultimate Armor or Hyper Special Armor (the one from X3 that's gold) kay?

I can't wait to get Crash Man up to level 100 so he can turn those starting Mets into even less.

EDIT: Augh how do I links.

Ah, okay. That seems pretty roundabout, but eh. Thanks for the explanation on how it might have worked on NES, I didn't know about the two-layer thing, let alone Plant Man having a third one.

I think there might be too many colors, actually. She'd probably need to be on Super Nintendo to be accurate.

Probably gets to use Copy Shot or the other possible Copy Core moves.

Actually, how would Copy Shot work on them? Would the gimmick be ignored and it's just Copy element damage?

Maybe we could still have the Copy Change gimmick, with them changing to the Core's type when they hold one. That way if someone doesn't like any of the available Water Core Robot Masters, for example, they can slap a Water Core on Bass or someone and use them again.

Well I'm assuming it's real then, since nobody'd drag an April Fools joke on to late April 2nd.

@TheDoc : Nah, it was probably all a photoshop by MBM.

That, or it's supposed to make you think it's a fake, but really it's true.

Or he could have force-added Ballade to the account he was testing on as a hurried April Fools joke.

But the Dark Man series!

I'm hoping they come with their own level-up abilities. Maybe also come at level 1 since they're boss fights, with the NPC versions having higher caps.

I'll always wait for the ability to use the Dark Man set, even if it'll never show up.

This all seems like it'll improve how the game goes, especially the mission revision. It wasn't fun having to grind just to beat the first Robot Master at all.

I think he means the Mega Man Killer fights, since they don't have Mets or anything, it's just the Killer. It'd be best to level Defense first, so you can survive a capped Power attack.

Harumph.

Dang, you noticed me peeking in after vanishing to do who knows what, then running in terror at 125 threads being posted in since I vanished to do who knows what.

Anyways I probably won't due to doing who knows what still.
