Ill check back at the ChronoX forums soon. I keep on forgetting

Heya folks! We're getting closer to release demo4, so, we've decided to host a HelpBBS contest. In case you're rusty, a HelpBBS is one of the boards that give you jobs to do. In return for completing these jobs, you get prizes.

What we want from you guys, our fans, is to post in the topic linked below with your best ideas for a HelpBBS quest. Please follow the instructions written there and think hard about the one you want to submit. Remember that if you're idea is creative, it has a higher chance of being featured in the game.

You guys... REALLY need to get a new forum.

I've tried on FOUR distinctly different days to connect to the site, and ALL FOUR TIMES ended up in failure, as I was unable to connect. Nonetheless I have some great ideas for requests, so I guess I'll email them to you or PM them to you here...?

[Hallan Parva]

Rawr. I'm submitting an idea not only for the HelpBBS, but for a sidequest as well.

It involves a new NPC who is one of Lan's classmates: Trip Draxler.

Trip Draxler is a local NetBattler who attends Lan's school, and this year, he is in Lan's class. Trip's dad works with Mr. Hikari at the SciLab Complex, and has learned a few things from his father. However, Trip uses his knowledge for personal gain, and is known as a Virus Trainer. They're what might be the futuristic 20XX equivalent of modern-day hackers.

Trip is able to modify organic code generated by the Net and can create his own programs by utilizing said code. He is able to make friendly versions of viruses like Mettaurs that help people and NetNavis instead of trying to harm or endanger them. Due to his unique and useful skills, he has earned the nickname "Hacker Draxler" from his friends.

The player can first meet Trip in class (possibly after the tutorial segments at the start of the game) and talk to him to learn about Chips, their controls, and basic stuff like that. Basically, he seems like another unimportant NPC that spouts "advice" of which you already know. Later in the game, though, Trip offers a very unique service in that he can take Bug Frags off your hands and convert them into rare items and Chips. You can also battle his NetNavi, Enker.EXE, after reaching a point in the game. Depending on the player’s progress throughout the game, you can find Trip either at school somewhere or in his house at ACDC Town.

Enker.EXE uses close-range sword attacks like ProtoMan.EXE, but he can't invade your play area, as if he was another player. He does not have a shield like ProtoMan.EXE, and he also has noticeably lower health than ProtoMan.EXE. He will either slice with a three-panel Long Sword (so he can hit you if you're in the back row) or a sweeping Wide Sword. Sometimes Enker.EXE will stop and "charge" an attack. Damaging him during this phase will increase the power of his special attack! His attack has a power equal to 10 times the damage he recieved, capping at 9001 (in other words, barely over nine thousand).

After charging up power for a bit, Enker.EXE shoots a beam down the center row of the field. If the beam's power is greather than or equal to 1000, the beam will be large enough to hit the top and bottom rows as well. The beam WILL pierce Shields and cannot be Reflected, but can be dodged with Invis. The beam only hurts the player once and cannot "combo-hit" a player multiple times. The beam attack also has a semi-long animation, so AntiDmg chips can counter, yes, but you'll re-appear in the beam and take damage anyway.

Whew... that's a lot of text, and we're just getting started! And now, for the HelpBBS suggestion!

Trip is complaining that his Home Page has been infiltrated by some sort of "super-virus" that is deleting all of his adorable pet Mettaurs! Normally, he'd handle the problem, but Enker.EXE is with his dad and helping with some coding at his work. So, naturally you have to go into the Net and investigate. After accepting the request Trip will be at home, keeping a watch over his computer and his “personal hacker network”. Talk to him to recieve the "DrxlrKey" that allows you to log into his network.

To get to Trip's HP, you have to walk along an invisible pathway... sigh. However, it's relatively easy to find once you know where to look; just keep walking along a dead end and you'll cross the invisible pathway. If you're having trouble finding it then buy some coffee at a Net Cafe while the HelpBBS request is accepted; the clerk there will tell you that Trip's HP is "hidden behind a dead end".

Access the network to enter a one-screen mini-dungeon of sorts. At the end of the area you will find Rogue.EXE trying to delete another pet Mettaur. He tells you that because he hacks, Trip is a bad person, and his "malicious coding" needs to be brought to an end. You try and say that Trip's "hacks" aren't bad, and show the friendly viruses as proof, but Rogue.EXE doesn't listen and challenges you to a duel in order to prove who is right. When you're ready, talk to him again and say "yes" to battle. You have to fight him in his V3 form, so be ready for a challenge.

After the fight (assuming you won), Rogue.EXE rethinks his perspective, then hides his feelings, insults you, and leaves. Go back to Trip and tell him the problem's fixed. He thanks you for your troubles and tries to think of a cool way to repay you. After thinking about it, he tells you that he'll have your reward tomorrow, and suggests that you take a break and visit him the next time you’re in town. What he means is that he will have the reward the next time you load the save file. No, really, you literally have to save the game outside of his house, turn the game off, boot the game back up again, and go back into his house and talk to him.

When you talk to him again, he gives you the "DraxHack", which he says is his most powerful and useful hacked program. It's a key item that has a Navi Compressor Code in its description if you investigate it. However, it’s not just an everyday Navi Compressor Code… no, this code has the power to compress and expand EVERY NaviCust part in the game! Think of it as a universal remote or a skeleton key. Once you acquire this item, you’ll never need to have a long list of codes ever again!

You're having trouble as well?  I honestly don't know what could cause this issue. Perhaps it's the host?  It works for a lot of our regular users all of the time.  Hopefully someone can shed some light on it. Also, feel free to email up to two more submissions.

Sent a new submission!

You probably won't use them since you'd have to go in and manually code new stuff (read: Trip's shop, Enker.EXE, the DraxHack, etc.) but they're really creative, maybe Trip could be some sort of cameo if you don't program him in!

[Emmanuelf06]

I have seent the demo 4, i will test the game  

[giver336]

Our contest has ended. If you have submitted, I humbly thank you for your submissions.

In the meantime, I bring to you guys another video about Chrono X! It's a small plot teaser that reveals another character that will be in the game. Enjoy.

Bumping thread to add something.

Greetings! I'm here to serve you the latest happenings on our game. We've entered our betatesting phase and are working really hard to find all the bugs. It's not easy, but we'll get it done.  

The next thing I want to display is a brand new wallpaper depicting another scene from ch2 and will be shown in demo4. Enjoy.

Hello there, fans! Today is a very special day! Why?  Because our trailer for the fourth demo is finally finished! Demo4 will contain 2 full game chapters. You will get to play through all of the story from demo3, plus the entirety of chapter 2. This adds up to about 4 hours of gameplay. Not only that, but the bugs from the third demo have been fixed, the graphics have been improved, smoother gameplay on older computers and much more.

But who am I kidding? Just watch it already!

Amazing. Simply amazing. Keep up the great work guys!

Oh yeah, are there any plans for multiplayer connectivity? And if possible, you should be able to change your Navi's "skin" to look like a Norm Navi, or a Dark Navi, or Mr. Program!

[giver336]

That is quite possible!  The only reason why we haven't made much multiplayer progress as of yet is because we would need a PC that runs 24/7 to host the server because most players don't know how to portfoward when they're hosting a session. Until we find that, we will focus on story.

[Emmanuelf06]

Just awesooooome !!! =D

There is crossfusion/soul unison? O:

[giver336]

Nope, there is new system called Me.M.E.N.T.O.

[giver336]
