MegaMan/RockMan Online

[Majikn]

Regardless, the title of this thread was MegaMan Universe and that's what we were talking about until you said it was Rockman Online.

To be clear, I'm not beating you up for it. I'm just saying, though, it was you.

[Johncarllos]

I posted something that matched the thread title :-P

[ChaosVortex]

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.

[ASR]

Wait are these the same games?!

[TheOnly]

No they are not! One is Korianized and the other is Capcomized. XD

But any who, there's news about the other one but don't wanna double post and can't edit since am so limited on a phone.

[ASR]

So these are different games?

[Johncarllos]

Different games.

Megaman Universe is going to be released on XBLA and PSN and maybe other stuff and is made my Capcom.

Megaman Online is a North Korean exclusive and is made by a 3rd party.

[Majikn]

Ha ha, ASR.

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

I was really just making a point of saying. Xero segued the thread when he said "I HOPE THIS IS IT" he didn't actually say "this is it" but regardless I'm wrong anyway because I guess we were discussing what Xero was talking about at the time and not the actual original topic, so both Jon and Vinch were right with respect to what they were doing.

I was pretty sure the games were different, though, regardless of the confusion. It was only until that recent trailer was posted that I was like "Wait, so I guess MMU is the English name for it." Because the animated thing really looked like exactly what MMU was supposed to be, with the different series intertwined.

[ChaosVortex]

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.

[Majikn]

There's really not much to discuss, and I just wasn't applying a filter to everything I think to type.

It's just small talk.

[Johncarllos]

I'm drunk. I wanna pl;ay megaman.

[Chron]

Hey, JC.  Here's a fun game that has the possibility of giving you alcohol poisoning and making you shut up about your post-adolescence "hey look at me i can drink" and possibly put you out of my misery.

Play the first Mega Man.
Every time you see a bullet fired from an enemy, take a drink.

[Johncarllos]

...
You trying to kill me?

[TheOnly]

No, just an idea. XD

[Chron]

...
You trying to kill me?

Only a little.

[ChaosVortex]

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.

[TheOnly]

What do ya know, Duo is in it as well.

http://www.themmnetwork.com/2010/09/09/rockman-online-reveals-duo-beginning-area/

[ChaosVortex]

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

IN KOREA.

[NovaMan XP]

WHAT A JERK.

[TheOnly]

Me like Zero's armor. :3

EDIT: the blog site I guess, http://blog.naver.com/rmonline

[ChaosVortex]

I'm used to X being in new armor, but I'm indifferent about the others.

[Johncarllos]

No boob lights on the new armor?

[Majikn]

Looks cool I guess.

There seems to be a downward curve pattern between X and Zero. Still, it's a different look for Zero that I don't absolutely hate so that's something.
Duo I just don't know.

Actually I'm looking at Zero right now and thinking new age power ranger.

But what am I thinking I don't care! So liberating not to care. The worst thing ever could happen to your beloved characters and weeeeeeee

[Chron]

Actually, I read somewhere that these are just copies of X and Zero.

[NovaMan XP]

Apparently they're all dead and they somehow have Duo's data to copy also.

Gameplay trailer.

Plus new anime trailer.

[preventerWIND]

Oh. God. 0:20. Two Zero's. Two. That's a friggin' bad sign. Otherwise that looks solid (besides the weird new armors), it looks like a MM game I've been waiting for..

AND NOVA YOU ASSFACE THAT SECOND LINK IS BROKED.

[TheRedPriest]

I thought Axl was the bad sign myself.  And X getting beat down by any Robot Master OTHER than Air Man would have been a joke, but as we all know, you can't beat Air Man, so it's cool.

I can't say the gameplay blew me away.  Looked pretty MHXish, which isn't bad I guess, but that psudo 2.5D is never as tight or sharp as real 2D.  I don't see how the "multiplayer" bit really even fits with the game to be honest.

All in all, it's a neat novelty, but I really have no interest in the plot, the gameplay or look.  I'd say we're not missing anything.

[NovaMan XP]

AND NOVA YOU ASSFACE THAT SECOND LINK IS BROKED.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT AT ALL

[ASR]

Yeah, it looks better than I thought it would and I'm certainly willing to give it a try... but it also just looks very simple. Nothing too innovative aside from the multiplayer, which doesn't seem to change much aside from making things easier.

[Chron]

You will never give this a try because it will never be available in English.

[preventerWIND]

YEAH, SUCKER.

AND NOVA YOU ASSFACE THAT SECOND LINK IS BROKED.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT AT ALL

#####er.

[Aresian]

This game had me at Axl.

I'm gonna play it, Korean or not, so yeah.

[preventerWIND]

This game had me at Axl.

[Johncarllos]

Ditto.

[ChaosVortex]

yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhh-no.

[Majikn]

Axl is like... Silver the Hedgehog of Mega Man X.

[preventerWIND]

The entire Sonic franchise itself has become the Axl of game characters..

[Kayauts]

I personally can't wait for this game to come out! It looks fun as hell for an MMO, and the new armor designs are INSANE  . They're already seriously considering a Japan release, so it's not impossible for us to see it make its way to the states! If anyone's really interested in helping make this happen you should sign this petition and help spread the word!

[NovaMan XP]

Do petitions ever work?

[Majikn]

The goal is 100 signatures?
lol

[Aresian]

Axl is like... Silver the Hedgehog of Mega Man X.

Funny that I like Silver too.

I love #####ing with you people. It tickles me how you guys can hate something that is soooo good. It's like how kids hate Dark Chocolate. Childish and totally irrational.

Oh well, I guess it'll shock you all to say I also like X7 and don't use X in X7 or X8. I even deem X inferior to Axl in X8. X's usefulness is zilch when I have Axl or Zero. I can even solo the game on its hardest with Axl alone.

Yep.

[Chron]

That's called obsession, and it belongs in Ryships.

Also, I thought Axl was pretty cool to use in X8... he's ##### in X7 pretty much all around, but he's better than Zero in 8.

I'll just take up a contrary position on the usefulness of X, however, because I think he just makes everything easy.

[TheRedPriest]

It tickles me how you guys can hate something that is soooo good. It's like how kids hate Dark Chocolate. Childish and totally irrational.

I had no idea since you like it that means your opinion is fact.  Thanks for clearing that up.

[Johncarllos]

Dark chocolate is beast.

[NovaMan XP]

Is it a coincidence both Axl and Silver were in horribly bad games...?

I will forever hate that one desert level with Silver in Sonic '06... uuugh.

[Majikn]

I AM surprised that you like Axl, and I don't understand it, but it's not like I'm fuming with rage here.

But please, continue to be condescending.

I've argued that I like him as a character in X8, but I dislike what he brings to the gameplay. You know how X7 and X8 have the whole switch-out thing? I didn't care for it that much, but if they were to do it right, I think it would feel better with just X and Zero.

[Aresian]

I had no idea you would take that comment so seriously. Thanks for showing me you would.

Wait no... I did.

Again with the srs bsns. 8D It feels so good, it's like rolling in chocolate... which probably isn't as good as it sounds.

Anyway, I did enjoy the switch out system, given I like to mix it up a bit. Having more than one gameplay type at my disposal is an interesting notion, but I think it would've been more... interesting if they had four characters instead of just three. But on that notion, I can't think of another style that would be fitting enough. Or a character for that matter.

Dark chocolate is beast.

Agreed.

[Majikn]

Anyway, I'm not really interested in anything Mega Man until I see Mega Man 11, Mega Man X9 (which I would still be skeptical of), or perhaps Legends 3.

I don't think this Rockman Online business interests me any further than some of its concept art.

I still think they had all sorts of potential with Dynamo.  He's chaotic enough that it would have been no small stretch to fabricate a reason for him to be playable.

Although I still prefer the one character at a time thing because it adds to replay value.  Being able to switch at any time (even the way X5 did it) is a detriment to that even if it doesn't ruin it.
