WHAT WAS THE FUCKING POINT, IT'S NOT EVEN FUN LIKE THE GEM GAME OR SHOOTER GAME, I JUST WASTED HALF AN HOUR AND 500 CREDITS ON GIVING MYSELF AN ANEURYSM

Since I posted it late last thread I am just giving out a public service announcement for MMZ2:

You CAN revisit the air ship stage later after it crashes (beating Harpuia lets you do this), so there is nothing missable at all. Don't stress yourself out or get a shitty rank thinking you need to grab everything in one go!

Always hated that guy. That spinning laser is bullshit, it goes on forever.

ZX is the one game in the collection I'd actually recommend using save assist on, the save system is idiotic there.

this user
is right though I can't remember which game does the average score over time.

I try to warn people, its nice that new people are playing the game but the assists change the experience

Z2's ex skills seem pretty fucking legit. Z3's got a few nice ones but my GOD are some shitty. Looking at you, ice buster ex skills.

>they've caused me to get way too careless and stop memorizing patterns but just prioritizing killing them before they kill me.
How?

>love
Z4
ZX

>like
Z1
Z2

>indifferent
Z3
ZX Advent

playing ZXA really just makes we want to just go back and replay ZX as vent and get Model X unlocked.

just a bit over an hour in and i feel like im halfway done, compared to zx where i spent a total of 10 hours playing.

>Go into boss
>Know that if I die I respawn with full health
>Learn just enough of the pattern to dodge the big damage moves, but tank through the small moves in order to spam the triple combo
>Infinite lives so I have no penalty for taking 10 tries to get a boss pattern down.
I have died atleast once to every fight in the zero 4 boss rush, but I didn't care because I knew the checkpoint was right there.

How?

why does he wear a diaper

literally opposite, only subhumans like yourself think it's good

Shanghai Cyber Space.

Can always just use save assist at the beginning of the level and treat it as a quick reset.

I still don't really get it, but okay. Then again, I've played the shit out of this series so I guess using save-assist wouldn't hurt me the way it would a new player

I thought he was pretty easy honestly.

ok, I forgot the double beetle fight isn't on the bombing run I guess and I don't remember how to handle his EX skill even slightly

>get Model X at the beginning
>already know I'm gonna get a Zero form later
>actually like the change of pace in gameplay for Model X given that I've been playing as Zero for 4 games now and this feels refreshing
>get to the part where Giro dies
>get Model ZX
>plays and looks like Zero which is fine
>but now Model X is gone and the only way to get it back is to beat the game twice
I'm really liking it so far but jesus christ that was some blue balls bullshit

At the very least your default buster is better than Zero's

no joke I actually dropped the game years ago because of this
the game is still fun and great but I don't get why they would restrict you like that

The irony is that the extra buster shot and ability to keep your distance makes Model X better than ZX.

>X gets shafted in favor of more Zero
was Inafune responsible for this too

splitting time between 1 and zx advent.
Advent is the only one i hadn't played before.

5000 crystals away from jackson. Farming this shit is so dumb.
Though I still have to beat the game to unlock it.

It's less the save system, and more of a lack of save points. Sometimes you'll get a save point before a 'stage', sometimes you just don't and have to walk a significant amount to get to the start of your 'stage'

Think about how fucked up is this. Leviathan was based about a megaman armor that was designed to navigate in space, repurposed to navigate in water instead.
And she still had no change of beathing Zero.
Try again while completely powered up in elf juice and still lose.
And to make things weirder and sadder she gets thirstier and thirstier every time she loses.
How the actual fuck did the other 2 guardians saw this and don’t send her to take a cold shower and some forced vacations.
Also how did Ciel never even got at least worried about her?

Can’t find it anywhere

Replaying hl2 for obvious reasons. It shows its age but is still genuinely fun as fuck, I really forgot how kino Valve used to be.

Yeah it doesn't really make much since as to why they locked Model X behind such an arbitrary thing like having to beat the game twice.

not that user but if I was playing a hard game for the first time and used save assists I probably would end up not actually learning how to play the game and just brute force it since the assists give me less incentive to actually try

ok this kuwagust asshole is the only thing standing in my way here. I can do the whole bombing mission without getting hit until his stupid EX skill comes out. I'm hitting him with the shots as fast as I can but he still gets me. was there a trick to this?

How would you remake model ZX to be more of a fusion between X and Zero instead of basically just Zero?

Attached: 1551326573161.jpg (1315x2048, 209.1K)

I'd try my best to mix X's armor with Zero's Helmet and color scheme. And instead of a gun saber combo, just make the Gun the X-buster, and the saber like X series Zero's saber.

I think it's underestimated how X-like ZX is. The level design is much more open like the X games. Also the stages are noticeably longer, so the point is to clear moderately difficult stages instead of memorizing and executing a great run of a difficult stage. Really only the gameplay is explicitly Zero. The design philosophy is all X.

Blue torso, red limbs, helmet with mixed colors. This way it’d evoke a sort of flame-like pattern as well while at it and feel like neither X nor Zero

Got all level 4 plushies for Prairie.
It's only the 8 pseudoroids right? Or is there some secret ones?

Are all Elves one time usages? Are there any that are perminate enhancements like more HP, faster movement, etc...?

I know that the ZX formula offers a greater variety in a more streamlined package, but all I really want is a Zero game where you can also play as X as a separate character. I want to see them give X a similar breadth of variety as Zero got.

Yeah, just the 8.

I should have specified that I mean GAMEPLAY wise, not design wise

z2 hard mode. i gave up at S ranking at the bomb stage, but god damn i spent time trying to do well on harpuia's stage in the crystal cave. got stuck on avoiding damage from the dumb elemental turret enemy and then harpuia himself. i finally got a clear in one go and i was short on enemies. i think z2's hard mode is much more challenging than z1's, but i really hate the 3 neo arcadia tower stages. it's the only part of the game that i dislike about z2.

I wouldn't change a thing in terms of gameplay. The gameplay in ZX is fucking fantastic.

is there a way to start off with hard mode this time around or do I really have to play normal mode on every game again

the buster is already superb

have to clear the game at least once. i tried to go right from the beginning with the input code when you make a new game, but it didn't work for me with either z1 or z2.

Are the buster EX Skill actually WORSE than just using the normal charged shot in Z2? Some of them feel... strangely ineffective.

you'd think considering this is like the 3rd full release of the games that they would have done something about that

Finished Zero 4.
Holy hell, that ending hit a lot harder now that I actually played the X games and seen Zero more often. Before this, I played zero 1-4 on ds before even touching any X game past X1 (and even then I didn't even beat it)
I was not ready for this.

Aile is mai waifu.

Well it is a fusion
once you change your model it's like X's armor upgrades + you get Zero's skill in terms of movesets.
Lets use Hx as an example
Triple slash - Zero
Charge abilties such as tornado and electric ball - X
Fx
Edits - Zero
Charge shots - X
This is mainly what makes X and Zero different.

For bosses, the fire and probably ice ones are worse, not sure on thunder though. Piercing laser is fine though

The booty is mine for keeps and you can't stop me.
