Countershade's level is pretty bad. So far the level is just a hallway that circles around to the beginning as you look for Countershade.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Just tried the intro and level 1 and...nah

 

[Stone Ocean]

Yeah most level have a sad techy indy lok that i don't like but for exemple the city stage looks kinda like a megaman x, just a little less saturated.

But i mean people are regretting those early mock ups but they were way less megamanish than what the game is now.

I can't speak for others but I expected them to build up on that, ya know? Mess with the lighting a bit or something else. Sure, it's not retro looking but it's pleasant to look at.

 

[robotrock]

Is it a long game?

 

[Vamphuntr]

They gave me two Retro head DLC instead of the Ray DLC on my backer's page on Humble Bundle. Is this a known issue?

 

[Lord British]

Um... does anyone know how to save the game?

It doesn't seem to autosave and the menu option is either non-obvious or I'm thick.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Oh my god! This stupid level is an overlong hide-in-seek mission.

Watching Jim play, it doesn't seem half bad. Some pacing issues with the story... "GO! Oh wait, cutscenes first"

Where does the game falter exactly?

It's just an Internet meme by this point, the actual game doesn't factor much into the posts it generates.

 

[Berordn]

It seems like it's supposed to auto save? Every time I try starting it, it does it's initial save creation.

 

[No_Style]

Of course my PSN code I got for backing isn't valid. Of course.

psn store is not updated yet.

Thanks for the clarification.

 

[Lord British]

Yeah, same.

It doesn't save.

 

[DeathSparks]

I saw this last night and thought I'd share this, So when you redeem the DLC for the PS4 version this is what happens.

I shit you not

 

[tirkaroKujo]

I tried redeeming the code for the Ray DLC but it just gave me the minecraft skin again.

I'd almost be angry if I was planning on playing the game for a significant amount of time.

This is the first time I've seen footage of the game. God, it looks atrocious. That's £16 I won't get back.

That looks decent actually

 

[MikeDip]

So I desperately need to know. How is that multiplayer?

 

[Jobbs]

I saw this last night and thought I'd share this, So when you redeem the DLC for the PS4 version this is what happens.

It looks more interesting this way. You could almost mistake it for having some kind of style which can't be said for the normal game

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Well Countershade was easy. No skill required just shoot him as soon as he appears.

 

[Caffeine]

I shit you not

thats the style they should have went with lmao

 

[Nose Master]

So uh, any news when this is unlocking on Steam?

 

[Waylon Drums]

I'm *so* curious to play this game but I just don't want to spend money on it. Maybe it'll be real cheap sometime soon.

 

[TunaLover]

The game itself doesn't make any justice to the OT art.

 

[JamesAR15]

I'm *so* curious to play this game but I just don't want to spend money on it. Maybe it'll be real cheap sometime soon.

Same, am I crazy for wanting to play this still?

 

[DeathSparks]

Most likely it won't happen till 10am PST, that's the normal time Steam updates.

 

[kevm3]

Same, am I crazy for wanting to play this still?

Not really. This just seems like a pile on session. The graphics are fairly bland, but the gameplay seems like your megaman fare, which is what was to be expected in the first place.

 

[muteki]

So it looks like they (correctly) sent me a JP psn code for the game. I assume I'll have to wait until this weeks PSN refresh for the code to work.

 

[Krammy]

To everyone mentioning the DLC mix-up issues, it was brought up on the Twitch chat for the Finale Stream, and one of the developers mentioned that he noticed the comments and they would look into it (01:35:15).

 

[Stone Ocean]

I saw this last night and thought I'd share this, So when you redeem the DLC for the PS4 version this is what happens.

Oh, so the retro DLC is supposed to make the game look like the DOS Megaman games, what an easter egg!

 

[MaLDo]

I bought the game exactly 1 year ago from nuveem. It didn't have a region lock then. But it have a region lock now. I have the game and dlc keys in my account but I can't redeem on steam because "this product is not available in your region".

Something more can go wrong?

 

[jello44]

tripping balls

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

I just noticed there's no boss intro when selecting a stage. C'mon man.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

I can't believe that even after all of these delays, they still don't have 4 versions of the game ready to go. I wouldn't be surprised if the handheld versions(which the visuals were originally hobbled for) along with the xbox360 version got canceled.

The Xbox 360 version didn't get canceled. You would've known this if you read the update. It's being delayed by a few days due to it failing certification with Microsoft at the last minute. They're already resubmitting it.

 

[DeathSparks]

Oh, so the retro DLC is supposed to make the game look like the DOS Megaman games, what an easter egg!

Looks accurate.

 

[SAB CA]

I just noticed there's no boss intro when selecting a stage. C'mon man.

There's no intro when selecting, but there's one in the fight, and normally them showing up before the fight somehow, too...

... Yeah, I still want one before the stage, too. Even if it was just a nice loading screen with the art on it, it'd be better than nothing. (Games need nice loading screen art again, BTW. Black screens are for chumps.)

 

[Moofers]

I haven't really been following this game much, but I'm watching somebody in Japan play this on twitch right now and it sure looks like Mega Man Maverick Hunter X on PSP/Vita and that game was awesome. Granted I haven't seen the whole game but I can't help but wonder if Kickstarter drama has overshadowed the game itself.

It totally looks like Mega Man. If you're wondering, the stage they are on is "Might No 4 - Seismic". Sure looks good to me! The boss fight here is some classic Mega Man stuff, IMO.

 

[Boogiepop]

So quick question, but where is the artbook/manual/guide thing? I apparently should've gotten that from what I pledged, but I don't think I've received it...

 

[DPtheGod]

Not sure if this has been pointed out already or not, but if you bought it physical, redeeming the DLC on PS4 also gives you a digital copy of the game.

So trade the disc in!

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Same. I never got the digital art book and manual.

 

[Berordn]

Yeah, same.

It doesn't save.

Figured it out, run it as administrator. Seems to be saving directly to the Program Files directory.

Idiotic, but there you go.

QA fail or is this a video card issue?

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

I didn't realize this was out. I guess it's because at this point I care about as much as taking a wizz

The guy who reserved this OT probably changed his mind 2 years ago

 

[Seik]

Anyone tried the Wii U version yet?

I received mine yesterday but didn't have the chance to play it yet and I'm at work for the whole day...

Is it an OK port or is it a technical disaster in both IQ and performance?

How can a developer mess up a game this badly?

apparently it has poor performance and 45 second black screen load times each death.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

The game probably needed an extra 9 months in the oven to get the kinks out









Oh wait

 

[Meffer]

It's the worse of the bunch. My friend has it and the load times are over 30 seconds. The water level's fps dipped really bad. And when he went back to the level select, the game crashed.

 

[Krammy]

Same. I never got the digital art book and manual.

[B_Bech]

HUGE loadtimes on the Wii U version. There's a 45 second load just to get to the options menu. This does not bode well.

 

[Zippedpinhead]

Are PSN codes still not working?

I see it's available for purchase on PSN but the code still isn't working.

 

[DeathSparks]

Just checked on Amazon and Gamestop and the Vita and 3DS versions of Mighty No 9 aren't listed at all.

Likely that means they're getting cancelled
