V5b boss suggestions (spoiler warning)

[Dr. Freeman]

speaking of Bass, a bug I noticed on his 1st form, he always seems to react in pain every time he fires a charged shot

This isn't a bug. he's mad that he missed.

[TheRealRoyale]

he missed.

poor of him. you mm9 team could added some extra speech when you lose to him.

[Gothic]

My only suggestion for the Quint battle is that the conveyor belts on Solar Man stage could be more clear on which direction they are pushing, because they have the exact same animation.

[PressStart]

I am a horrible player and will probably get booed for my suggestion, but HERE GOES:

Have all bosses give more breathing room/a chance to attack back after they're done with one of their attack routines.

Again, I understand a lot of players here like challenge so I understand totally ignoring this suggestion, but it's something I honestly feel would help more casual players (like myself lol).

ESPECIALLY with Bass 2, and how you can't simply track and fire while you dodge (because he's EVERYWHERE and you have to watch your footing too), having him jus sit in a spot for a bit after he finishes his attack would give players a chance to hurt him and not worry about dodging for a bit. I think the bosses already do this a bit, so really I'm only asking that they do it longer (because some fights seriously feel like they jus NEVER stop attacking).

You could also have them only start doing this after a minute or so- casual players would have to just dodge until they get to that point, while advanced players could see it as a speedrun challenge and finish the fight before it becomes "dumbed down".

swooping in to say no nerfs to quint should happen. he needs to take 6 hours minimum to beat.

[CutmanMike]

He ain't getting one except the first phase he takes a little extra damage than usual.

What about, once you've beaten one of Quint's phases once, for all the next attempts (at least until you beat him outright), he takes slightly more damage and does slightly less damage during those phases?

If I do this I may as well concede the fact he's meant to be a superboss and just give him checkpoints which I really don't want to do.

Hey, is the Wily capsule supposed to appear after you beat Bass? I've beaten him twice and he has not appeared either time.

You're supposed to beat him Mega Buster only if you want to fight the Wily Capsule.

Thanks

Make it so, if you die during the Changkey Dragon phase of the Mega Mech Shark or later, you keep the E-tank you picked up during phase 2.

[Gumballtoid]

I think the E-Tank is a little reprieve for the player after beating two phases of the boss. If you die to the Changkey Dragon, you'll respawn at full health anyway.

[Stardust]

Please don't nerf Quint. If you're going to nerf Bass the robo Shark and everyone else fine ok but don't nerf Quint. We need at least 1 boss that is actually hard and challenging, plus since he's the "secret" boss (as in, not an "official boss needed to finish the campaign"), you should go more harsh on his difficulty, since you don't "have to" fight him. It's the point of secret bosses to be hellish hard. Nerfing him defeats that point. No nerf for him pls. Except spawning a bit further in the 4th phase, yeah this is fine, it's rather a fix than a nerf

[chuggaafan1]

i take back what i said earlier. don't nerf quint, unless you add a new superboss that requires you to beat quint first.

[NES Boy]

I noticed that the Mega Man 4 final boss theme (MM4BOSS2) is in the game, but unused. I suggest that for the Met Daddy boss, you change the intro cutscene music from MM3BOSS2 to MM4BOSS, then have MM4BOSS2 play for the actual fight.

[CutmanMike]

The reason I never used that song is because it sounds WAY too good for a normal boss fight. It just sounds so... "Wily". I may end up using it later for something.
