MM8BDM Discussion / So... What's next for MM8BDM? [Watch out for potential spoilers.]

« on: November 22, 2020, 08:31:15 PM »

The most recently released version has been incredible and truly feels like a fitting grand finale to what started off as a simple DOOM mod ten years in the making, and I have no doubts that Version 6 was always intended to be the true ending point for MM8BDM's story line.

So with that being said, there's Wily's letter hinting at his eventual plan to utilize his Double Gear System after completing the final chapter (and that "Wily always wins" utterance before the final Wily Star map), which seems to imply that Mega Man 11 will be happening. I just have to ask at this point: what will happen with Mega Man 11? Will it be meant as a kind of 'epilogue' to the game's story? Will anything special be done for it like it was done for Version 6's last two chapters or will it be simpler? (Though I can't imagine that anything will top the likes of the Eclipse battle and everything prior to it.) Will Version 7 even happen, considering that Version 6 was originally meant to be Mega Man 10 as a standalone expansion before Mega Man 11 was announced?

I'm really curious to know how you guys will tackle this, considering that you really went all out for Version 6 and, as I said above, it'll be really hard to top this (and I sure as hell know that you guys aren't going to make Zero the final boss because...seriously, what's the worth in doing so when Mega Man 11 doesn't serve as a "starting point" for Mega Man X?).

Bugs/Suggestions / Crippling Sunstar Bug

« on: November 03, 2020, 04:39:55 PM »

Okay, I honestly don't know if it's because of my computer or if it's legitimately a bug in the game itself, but I've tried fighting Sunstar TWICE now and both times my game has crashed before I can get any further into the first phase. Apparently, whenever Sunstar gets close enough to grapple you in the fight, the game crashes to the desktop and stays frozen for a few minutes before forcefully closing. This would be bad enough on its own, but every single time I get back to the game, all of my save data from the last hour or so would be nuked. This means that all of that effort to collect screws to get every single weapon before taking on the Wily Star? GONE. The Stardroids I defeated? It's as though I never killed them at all. One hour of progress made so I can finally see the final boss? Completely wasted.

This is really starting to piss me off and I don't know how to fix this problem - and that's even assuming this is an issue stemming from the game itself and not something wrong with my laptop. Can somebody please help?
