Attention! This is a legacy build of the Mega Man RPG from 2016 and is no longer being maintained.
Reported bugs will not be fixed and any progress made here will not be saved.

Rather than creating individual topics for text-related and spelling errors, please add them all to this thread instead. Let me know if a robot quote is spelled wrong, is there's a grammar error in an ability description, or any other typos etc. Easy fixes like these are easier do to in bulk, so… Read More

Hmm, yes. Maybe that's a good idea. When I'm writing narrative and flavour text for the game, I often replace the robot's name with a Pokémon's name in my head to see how it flows. Because each of these robots represent a model or species rather than a specific member of that species. "The wild Pikachu wants to fight!" when thinking of "The Cut Man wants to fight!". Though it might seem better if a had a descriptor like the word "wild" in the other one. Maybe "The rogue Cut Man wants to fight!" or "The Cut Man data wants to fight!". Definitely something to ponder though. :| And yes, the "Doctor" / "Master" is something I need to work out as well. >_>

After using Field support as Megaman twice, I somehow managed to get an Experience multiplier of 4.1. I'm pretty sure it started on one. The level is Iceman's background with Metalman's flooring, if it helps. EDIT: Apparently this is supposed to happen when you defeat an opposing Robot Master Also, Fireman says "I reckon you cool down, or I'll fire you!" instead of "I reckon that you should cool down, or I'll fire you!" since he thinks you should do something. Finally, Ice Slasher's description says it lowers speed by 10%, but I have had my speed lowered by 50% or even 75%. One time it lowered all 1517 of my speed points, so I couldn't even hit!

@Mollusk Man
I believe that Fire Man's Quote "I reckon you cool down, or I'll fire you!" was done on purpose because Fire Man has cowboy-like personality, so the way he talks reflects on that. And if you've seen any cartoonish cowboy, than you know how a cowboy talks.
Nah. In Powered Up, he didn't make puns so much (Though he did, on one occasion, shout "You're fired!"); instead, often comparing his own flame to the fire of justice. 2:24 in this video is one of my favorite lines from him.
It's not like the Powered Up personalities are absolutely correct, though; most writers I see for Ice-Man almost never play off of the Commander/Soldier split personality he had in Powered Up.
Yeah, I guess it wasn't really that bad, but Fireman can still be a grammatically correct cowboy, right? Also sometimes I feel inclined to post anything I find because it's my method of "helping." I can't code or make art, and I'm very phlegmatic, so beta testing and finding errors are really the only places I can help. Adrian, is there a place where I can assist with small things like these?
Back when I joined, I felt like I wasn't gonna help much... My intention was to just make one or two bugs reports and that's it. And here we are. Once you get into the swing of things, you'll be helping in more ways than you thought you would.
