Did you know??? MM8BDM

[IamaMedalHunter]

Believe it or not, one of his chatstrings is this particular quote, almost word for word.

What I posted earlier is when he was fanboying about Duo in the Lab. But then, when you fight his bot ...

[CutmanMike]

I know you didn't know this, so I won't say "Did you know" BUT! Here is a little development history for V5's bosses.

(V5 Spoilers)

Originally the Fake Police were going to show up because ??? couldn't pay a parking meter. I even made a sprite for it.



The maps Unkown2 and Unkown3 had to be created due to memory issues. The combination of giant textures, multiple skyboxes, portals and sloped sectors was causing random crashes on certain computers. It was frequent enough for me to have to split Unkown2 (which originally contained the Quint and Shark battles) into two maps. Unkown was also causing crash issues until the map was compressed so expect to see more Unkown maps in the future!

The Shark was originally going to be a 3d model for OpenGL but I couldn't make it look good and we didn't have any 3d modellers on hand. The fight was going to be more like fighting a battleship in a space shooter, allowing you to fly all around the shark. Due to the restrictions of 3d floors and slopes, portals had to be used instead which completely changed the battle from what I originally wanted. It was a nightmare to create, a pain for testers to get through it and did not quite turn out as good as I had hoped. Although I want future bosses to be more epic and crazy, nothing will top how insane it was making this boss fight work. For those that disliked it, I hope to improve it in v5b.

The idea for a Fake Man police chase wasn't mine, and wasn't even planned until I realized 3d floor slopes weren't available in software mode.

Quint was the first boss created for v5. Originally Nitro Man was chosen for the "near future" stage but because the MMX stage takes place on a highway, a different level was picked. Solar Blaze originally Needle Cannon until it was added closer to release.

I wanted to end V5 on a more sombre note to mix things up and lead into the MM10 expansion where things look dire (due to roboenza). Looking back it may not have been the best idea as it left a negative impression on a lot of people and the previous expansion left it on such a triumphant credits sequence and interesting stinger. V6 will get back on track, needing a hero to save the world once again!

There is an alternative credits sequence if you access the credits via the menu!

Did you know the giant health and weapon energy capsules from MM7 are in the game? Don't know where/if they're used, though.

I do believe they are not used, but they are an option for map makers to use.

[IamaMedalHunter]

For this one, I won't say "did you know" because I need actual confirmation. I'll rather say :
Did you notice that Duo's theme in MM8BDM isn't exactly like Duo's theme in Megaman 8 ? I believe this demix is more based on the U-GEN remix of Duo's theme :

[Korby]

It is indeed based on that remix!

Did you know that Coldman was turned into Light's fridge because he's being punished for joining King?

[JohnVyttalRay]

So that thing in the room before hornet man's is a coldman??? I thought it was a normal fridge!

[CutmanMike]

Is it? Hmm maybe. Perhaps there's something you can do to the fridge to confirm this.

[MegaVile]

Did you know since v5, you could do summon MM#Weps or Busterweps for Megaman 1-9
But it's possible to do Summon MM10Weps or MMVweps, though nothing will appear. just a waste of your time

[NES Boy]

To elaborate on what MegaVile said, here is everything you can spawn (type "summon ___" into console) or equip (type "give ___" into console):

MM1Weapons
MM2Weapons
MM3Weapons
MM4Weapons
MM5Weapons
MM6Weapons
MM7Weapons
MM8Weapons
MMBWeapons
MM9Weapons
MM10Weapons (Solar Blaze is the only weapon available as of V5)
MMVWeapons (no weapons are available as of V5)
MMKWeapons
BusterUpgrades
BusterWeapons (This is different from BusterUpgrades in that you can't spawn it, you have to equip it. You are also able to switch between Mega Buster and the upgrades freely, rather than add the upgrades into your inventory)
8BDMWeapons (This gives you all the weapons available. Regarding the buster upgrades, spawning this gives you BusterUpgrades, while equipping this gives you BusterWeapons)

[Xhatahx]

Did you know you can get all the weapons in MMCTF08 with only 2 jumps?

(click to show/hide)

Start next to Freeze Cracker, and grab it. Then go to the Gyro Attack chamber, get the Wire Adaptor, grab Gyro, then Wire out of the pit. Use up the other one(this'll make the next step easier) and wait for it to respawn. Then pick it up, wait for it to respawn again, and then Wire to the bridge while on top of the Wire pickup. If you did this correctly, you should have a full Wire Adaptor in you inventory. Go pick up Air Shooter and Flame Blast, and then drop down and pick up Water Wave. Then Wire over the step, go up the ladder, and then the awesome stunt begins: Go onto the bridge, fall off it, and then use Wire to wire up to the platform next to Rain Flush, then simply strafe-run onto it. Then jump back to the bigger platforms, and use your second jump to jump towards Quick Boomerang and pick it up. Then go back to the Wire Adaptor, pick it up, then adapt once up a step, collect Gemini Laser, then Wire up to Rolling Cutter.

I want you to try to get Pharaoh Shot and Power Stone without jumping by yourself.
Hint: it involves Wire Adaptor

[Yoshiatom]

Do you know it's possible to get telefragged in Wave Man's map? By being on the "end" of the tubes that you enter to gain the wave bikes as some enters it, you will be fragged by the player comming out with their wave bike.

not that anyone plays MM5WAV

[Goomba98]

Is it? Hmm maybe. Perhaps there's something you can do to the fridge to confirm this.

There is. Standing in front of him for long enough will make him say "...This is fine." and using the Ice Wall in front of him will make his eyes open briefly.

[Xhatahx]

The amount of coding for each weapon differs: the smallest weapon is Bass Buster, which is 1.06 kilobytes big. The biggest weapon is Jewel Satellite, which is 18.96 kilobytes, a share of which is solely showing the shiny sheltering shell of SHING!

[Megaman94]

Did you know the music for the credits for Version 5 comes from Mega Man IV on the Gameboy? (it starts on the "Thank You For Playing" screen)
