Mighty No. 9 delayed to 'Spring 2016'

Do you care about online modes in this game? Did you back this game?

Jeez...I even forget I contributed this silliness until I see these threads. I don't even remember what I'm supposed to get with my $60.84 (8-4 bump!).

I'm sure they have plans.

Fucking Christ, dammit, a Steam key is useless to me.

Edit: Can you send me a link to a confirmation of this future survey?

I can't find anything on first glance, it's possible I'm thinking of another campaign.

For as critical as I am about what they've done with this I would still expect another round of surveys. People have been hassling them about it on the regular, and it's standard practice anyhow.

I don't think they can delay it again, even if the netcode just doesn't work at all.

Oh, I think that they could... but there would be backlash from it.

I will be honest, Might No. 9 has a tall order to fill. The fact that it is a spiritual successor to Megaman doesn't really do the game any favors, since it will be put under a microscope. With every delay, the expectations rise with it. It's almost become like Shenmue 3 (where I fear the expectations are so high that whatever happens to the game will likely fall short).
It's Inafune call to back the game up, but I hope he understand the consequences of that... and can weather them.

So wait, when is this supposed to come out again? It'll probably be my 75th time replaying Mega Man Zero 3 by the time we get it(on #68 RN)

Anyone else hope this game gets delayed again just for an extra helping of chaos?

If the PC beta/beta/whatever is anything to go by, the game probably *should* be delayed again and heavily reworked
or scrapped
. It looks, and most importantly, plays like shit.

After I played the demo I already considered my money wasted, so I kind of just want to watch the whole thing burn.

Also this. I don't even want my code.

Netcode? What the hell are they making?

Good question, my friend.

Well at least Gunvolt 2 will probably be good, GV1 was...


I'm very sad about this in general but this time old Mega Man games aren't helping me get over it :(

QQ: I have the demo on my computer but I have no idea how to get it to run. I extracted the folder but I don't see an executable among the files.

Wow, it really is Spring. Crazy to not give more info by now.

I don't think there is much point in giving an update that doesn't include a definitive release date. If they don't have one then they can keep working.

No because I actually want to play the game I paid for

I have an Amazon order for the PS4 signature edition, and I've had my finger hovering over the cancel button so many times.

I have a feeling this is going to be a game that you'll be able to get on the cheap used once it comes out... Unless the extras mean that much to you.

Nothing I've seen from the project inspires the hope that it's going to do very well, even though it looks fun to me.

Every time I see this thread, I always think the game is delayed again.

Not that I'm looking forward to it. That boat departed long ago. Part of me regrets backing this project.
 
i want to preface this with the fact that it is NOT news, NOT confirmed, and NOT set in stone

do not take this as gospel

i don't wanna see this taken on full swing as a rumour hitting a new GAF topic, Reddit, etc

i'm friends with a mom and pop games store owner. he told me he's been told to expect the game to release mid to late summer, rather than spring. i don't know if he's fucking with me or has been told incorrect information by whoever his supplier is?

again, this is anecdotal and not to be taken at face as anything other than a possibility. the dude hasn't steered me wrong before when it comes to release dates that he has heard, though obviously he hasn't blown anything big out of the water before. always smaller stuff, normally a week or two before normal at best.

just keep this in this thread.

Don't see the point in canceling it. It's not like the money it's tied up or anything. Unless you don't want the game now.

That's what I can't decide. Part of me is curious, but the buzz around the game has turned so negative, and there's so many other games coming out this Spring that I'm torn.

Unless they've spent all this extra time addressing the core game rather then netcode, from the last time they showed it there's not a chance in hell it'll come anywhere close to the mediocre megaman games, let alone the good ones.

Ice cold. But honest. Depressingly honest.

Boo! :x
I need my megaman like game. And no, gunvolt cheap-ass impersonation of MMZ doesn't cut it.

This is so sad and dramatic.

Like...

What do you expect from that piece of shit of Mighty n9 exactly ? If the Gunvolt rip off wasn't good enough, you do realize M9 will be worse on every single level, right ?

Maybe now they can put some anti aliasing on those jagged edges. Game looks like an Xbox Live Arcade trial last time I played it.

....but Mighty No. 9 is shaping up to be a cheap-ass impersonation of Mega Man.

Have you played it? It feels atrocious. The game probably should have been scrapped it needs so much reworked to feel and look right.
 
I messaged them a long time ago since I never got the survey for what platform I wanted. I am not holding out hope that a second survey will ever show up.

I can not wait for the next delay following the announcement of the Megaman Battle Network spiritual successor kickstarter.
 
Thanks for bumping the thread. I've been meaning to cancel my Square Enix Store pre-order for the collector's edition. Done.

My kickstarter money was taken 911 days ago, and the game's an entire year late past their initial prediction. What a bunch of bullshit.
