The Official Mega Man 10 Topic.

[preventerWIND]

YO MEGAMAN, I'M HAPPY FOR YOU AND I'MMA LET YOU FINISH

.. BUT 10 WAS THE MOST UNEXPECTED SEQUEL OF ALL TIME!!



Seriously, no announcements or anything. Wtf mate?

[ASR]

YOU GUYS

THIS IS SO GREAT YOU GUYS

[Johncarllos]

THIS IS
not as good as Megaman X9

[Vinchenz Rock]

THIS IS
better than MegaMan X9.

MegaMan 9 was also announced in Nintendo Power, guys.

[NovaMan XP]

I take a nap and wake up to this? ##### YEAH.

[Xero]

##### YES YOU ARE THE BEST NEWS EVER!

[ASR]

THIS IS
not as good as Megaman X9

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

CLASSIC SERIES >>>>>>>>>>>>> X SERIES

MegaMan 9 was also announced in Nintendo Power, guys.

Yeah, but at least there were rumors circulating beforehand! This one came out of NOWHERE!

[NovaMan XP]

I know, right?!

I mean, there was like... nothing to hint at it.

And hey, I was right, now that retarded fan game will look like a piece of #####. Hahaha.

[preventerWIND]

I baked a cake about 20 minutes before I found out.

I baked a cake in tribute to the gods.

They answered.

[NovaMan XP]

Won't be surprised if this thread is changed to "The Official Mega Man 10 Topic".

[Xero]

Done.

[NovaMan XP]

Woo.

So, that Sheep Man. He's not the most amazing looking Robot Master, but I still like how he looks for some reason.

[Chron]

Sheep Man is awesome, Nova.

He has the lightning power, and those always rock.
This is such an awesome announcement, it made ME post.

[Xero]

His weapon sounds good.

Let's hope the weapons in this game are just as useful as the weapons in MM9.

[NovaMan XP]

I think he's awesome, but he doesn't look like a Robot Master to me. But of course, I guess that makes him better.

But hell yeah, lightning.

Also, apparently there's an Easy mode, so I guess everyone can enjoy this.

Of course, I'll be playing on Normal.

[Chron]

Despite being a bit un-RMish, I really like his design. I can't point out exactly what it is I like... maybe it's the way the face is mostly concealed.

As for weapons... yes, I hope we get some really awesome useful ones. Maybe with some unusual effects to them. We at least need a spammable one, like laser tridents or metal blades.

[ASR]

So, that 3rd playable character... Bass or Roll?

[preventerWIND]

Or Auto!

[Johncarllos]

I love this boxart too.
It makes Protoman look super badass.

[NovaMan XP]

He has an energy shield. That's just awesome.

So, that 3rd playable character... Bass or Roll?

They trolled us with that Roll Costume thing in MM9's shop... so maybe we'll get Roll. But to be honest, unless Bass is a boss fight in this, he should be playable.

Or Auto.

OH WAIT GAIZ MAYBE IT'S ZERO AND YOU GET TO KILL EVERYONE LOLLOLO*murdered*

[Chron]

Bass wasn't even in 9. It's more likely Roll, considering she was playable in Powered Up, and that was more recent than Bass's last playable appearance.

And I seriously don't want to play as Bass.

[NovaMan XP]

WELL I DO SO MEH.

I don't really care too much, I'll be playing as Mega Man first either way.

[ChaosVortex]

I worked overtime today. I checked out Facebook and I INDEED saw this.

OMFG YES.

[preventerWIND]

It makes Protoman look super badass.

LORD ZEDD!

[Fatso]

THIS IS
not as good as Megaman X9

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

CLASSIC SERIES >>>>>>>>>>>>> X SERIES

In general I'd agree, but X1 is my favourite platformer OF all time FOR all time.

But yeah, if they made X9 it'd end up having that one guy I don't even want to name, which would bog down the game immensely.

EDIT:

Read that joystiq article, and this jumped right out at me:

uniquely painful experience of trying to complete an NES Mega Man title.

What are these guys smoking? MM games were the EASY platformers on the NES

[Xero]

X and Classic are both awesome in my book.

[Johncarllos]

I have the fondest memories of X1.
If they release a new game exactly like it I have no choice but to buy it.
That's just me.

[preventerWIND]

Here's some rumors from some douche, around November 21st, he released this info. It seems to be pretty spot on so far..

It will be WiiWare and keep the 8-bit style. 360 and PS3 seems likely, but I was only outright told WiiWare.
It will have no relation to Mega Man X (just pointing this out, since some people might think they might choose to do that with X equating to 10.)
Both Mega Man and Proto Man are playable (it appears Proto Man will be unlockable, or become available at some point midway through the game.)
There will be DLC to play as Bass. His gameplay will be based on how he played in Mega Man & Bass.
The ’story’ is basically as such: Robots get a virus that makes them sick. Roll catches it, Mega Man has to get Wily’s help to find a cure (Wily claims he has nothing to do with it, but… yeah), and the 8 bosses each hold part of the cure.
And here is the biggy… it will be two players. No idea if story mode will be two people, or if there will be some specialized two player mode though.
And oh yes… it’s far enough along that it is already being translated into English.

2 players? In my MegaMan game? Yes. Please.

[NovaMan XP]

Stop making us pay for extra ##### Capcom...

2P Fightin' games liek dat MM7 one gaiz.

[preventerWIND]

Nova, the game is 10 bucks. Quit bitching.

[NovaMan XP]

Yeah, well they should make it $50 and release it on a disc! NYAAH.

[Abominator]

I like MegaMan games.

[Xero]

*Pets Abe*

So do I Abz.  So do I.

[Johncarllos]

Me too Abe.

[TheRedPriest]

I could almost get behind Sheep Man if not for those AWFUL electrodes.  They're trying too hard to mix sheep and rain cloud, and it doesn't work.

I guess he's no worse than Toad Man or Centaur Man though.

Let us pray Inti does not try to #####ing shoehorn in another female boss and tones down the shop system.

I'd really like to see Mega Man get his slide back, but I'm all for no charge shot.

2 player?  Sounds like it COULD be loads of fun.  If it doesn't mess up the design for the single player game.

9 was not without flaws, but it was good overall (coming from Inti that in itself was astounding), so I'll assume 10 will be good until I'm proven wrong.

[preventerWIND]

My best friend and I are massive MegaMan fans. So unfortunately for most of you suckers, you won't enjoy the 2 player option as much as us!

We tried doing 2 player before, one of us controlled the d-pad, and the other controlled A+B. It took forever, but we beat the ##### out of StoneMan.

[Johncarllos]

Ha. you would.

[ASR]

We tried doing 2 player before, one of us controlled the d-pad, and the other controlled A+B. It took forever, but we beat the ##### out of StoneMan.

I LOVE playing 2-player like that. I've done it for everything from Call of Duty to NSMBW to Guitar Hero.

[ChaosVortex]

I'm just remembering when a lot of people at RPM were saying the Nintendo Power scans of Mega Man 9 were fake. They're probably keeping quiet now.

Also, not meaning to pick on Rez or anything, but his opinion has practically flip-flopped between the announcements MM9 and MM10.

Of course, with Inticreates at the helm we're guarenteed a pice of ##### no matter what, but one can hope.  I shall, as Capcom has taught me to, belive this game will be awful until it proves to be good.

9 was not without flaws, but it was good overall (coming from Inti that in itself was astounding), so I'll assume 10 will be good until I'm proven wrong.

Overall, I hope the game itself maintains what Mega Man 9 had.

[ASR]

It's not that his opinion flip-flopped without reason. There's been more than enough time for Rez's opinion to shift. One of the most ridiculous things in today's society is that nobody seems to understand that people can change their minds.

But yeah, Rez was pleasantly surprised by MM9 and that did a world of wonder for his views on Inti, which makes this an entirely different situation. It's not like Rez was going off about how gay marriage is an awful idea and then five minutes later going out to picket in support of it.

Enough of all that: MEGAMAN 10!

[Vinchenz Rock]

So. Does anyone wonder if there will be another Woman robot master?

I think that a Leaf/Plant female RM would work.

[preventerWIND]

A CHALLENGER APPEARS!



ALSO:

- Expect a new ice-themed boss who dominates a glacier stage. It’s filled with snowmen with exploding heads and ice blocks which break if shot or touched.
- A sewer stage is home to new slug-like Metools.
- A stadium stage contains sports-themed foes like baseball throwing robots, and a soccer goalie mid-boss.

- a desert stage acts as one of the more difficult areas as sandstorms obscure your vision.
- The famous Yashichi item returns, and refills Mega's life and weapon energy completely.
- The shop returns from MM9.
- MM10 features difficulty settings, with easy mode being compared to the difficulty of Mega Man 2.

- The game will contain multiple modes, achievements, challenges, leader boards, and downloadable content.
- Unfortunately, there won't be a female Robot Master this time around. Sorry, Splash Woman fans.
- MM10 is looking to release some time in March 2010.

[Vinchenz Rock]

[preventerWIND]

Any speculation on Robot Masters?

Snow Man? (took them 22 years to FINALLY think of that?)
Sewer stage.. hm.. Mutant Man? TMNT man? Garbage Man?
Desert stage, Cactus Man?

[NovaMan XP]

Commando Man looks sweet.

[ChaosVortex]

I'm already thinking Chill Man and Toxic Man, both of which are Robot Masters I've designed personally. I hope they don't use them for that reason.

Other than that, I'm guessing Sand Man.

And that pinwheel item? C'mon... that was EXCLUSIVE to MM1.

Hopefully they don't make the leader boards broken this time. They probably will though. Oh well.

[NovaMan XP]

They should have a Top 10 of all time, and one that's weekly... Or hell, daily.

[Xero]

A stadium theme stage.

OH GOD THAT'S #####ING AWESOME!

[Fatso]

Only if they fake up some NES-style gameplay footage of Mega Man Soccer to play on the screens.

[ChaosVortex]

If they did that, and then added Mega Man Soccer onto VC, that'd be most excellent.

We're most likely going to be seeing Mega Man 4, Mega Man 5, and possibly Mega Man 6 though.
