MM8BDM: Mega Man 8 Expansion Public Thread

[Ivory]

None of those things are in the MM8BDM search stage.

As for homing sniper, the current incarnation of the weapon charges. It launches missiles. It finds a target and then redirects itself towards said target. With additional speed. It's important to note it doesn't redirect itself any further once it finds a target, but it does gain speed.

Can you charge the homing sniper to lock on more targets like it did in mm8?



Don't get me wrong, i love search man's theme, i just don't want its 8 bit version to be complete mierda

Objection!
It burnt down those electrical... plant... things....
And lit fuses...


Also, need to ask... how does homing sniper work?

Didn't it also melt those weird ice blocks in Frost mans stage? or was that Astro Crush?

Both did that as well as Flash Bomb

This should be the chapter boss. No, really.

[Ivory]

The chapter boss has already been planned out.

[Beed28]

Ah well, it was worth a try.

Two pound coins say it's Wily Machine #8.

[GameAndWatcher]

Is ther going to be a secret boss? Will it be *u*?

[fizzyman]

Hey wait! I forgot all about the mega ball or whatever its called, that soccer ball you get on the first stage. Is that going to be in the expansion?

[Mr. X]

Yes, it will.


Unfortunately.

[Dark Phil]

Will the ball have the "bounce off" ability allowing the/a player to jump higher?

Oh, and will one of those smaller changes be an adjustment of the MM7 chapter select so that it fits in the screen? (or is that just a my computer thing?)

[Clayton]

Oh man, the I must give credit to the guy who is making the music for this expansion, those bass patterns are very complicated. one of the reason why I respected this game so much UwU.

I wish you guys best of luck. Can't wait to play as Swordlad!!

[Lobsters]

I am excited I love MM8 one of the best in the classic series IMO. I hope mainly 3 things, Frostman's theme's bassline still being godly in 8-bit Era Style. Swimming in Aqua Man's Map. Duo being in the expansion in someway preferably not just a skin.

Some questions I have are:

If the MM8 Expansion team deicides to go with a Wily 1 and 2 [and Wily 3 and 4 merge] merger, would it play either song from the stages? Similar to Tengu Man switching from PS to Saturn versions as mentioned eariler.

Is Frost Man's Stage going to have a night time sky or day time sky? I don't think the stock maps have a night time snow stage it would be neat to have one.

Is Sword Man going to be have areas based on the weapon trials, the lava tunnels/second half or a mash-up of both?

Anyways I have a feeling this expansion will be a blast to play. It's MM8 baby! Can't Wait. Woot. I can understand if my questions are overlooked.

[DCN004PharaohMan]

...Why do I get this ominous feeling Duo is gonna play a role in this...?

By the way, good job with the project guys. The music for this game was, well, decent (Duo's theme=Mind Blown), but I hope to see some really awesome stages assembled. Keep going.  

[Mr. X]

Swimming will NOT be in Aqua Man's stage.  It wouldn't make sense to have swimmable water in only one map of the entire game.
