Mega Man RPG World Community

Hello again! The field previews above have been updated with recent changes - they now have a bit more depth and I tweaked the animation slightly as well. Additionally, I'm posting previews for the remaining fields below - let me know what you think!

@ Adrian Marceau
Great but again, when exactly are we gonna get this update implemented?

Oh baby, say goodbye to Mets!




And @MMX, Adrian stated somewhere (Facebook?) that he really tries to push the update out before the end of the month. So, I'd say that give it 2-3 more weeks.

OHMYGODCANTWAITMUCHLONGERWHEREUPDADEWHYADRIANWHY-erm, excuse me.

So who is Cossack's support/healer robot going to be? I've been thinking...

-...Fan from Rockman Strategy
-...Plum from Battle and Chase
-...Ran Cossack from Bob and George
-...Kalinka in an epic mech-suit (What?)
-...a new character all together?

@Spinstrike I've actually gone through the exact same thought process regarding Cossack's support character and I've decided to create an entirely new robot.

Fan We know too little about his personality and abilities to give him any meaningful place in the game - anything we could do would just be made-up, and if we're going to be making stuff up anyway why not try something new?

Plum She was my next possibilities, and although I love her design and might add her to the game in some other capacity, she just doesn't seem like the same type of "support" robot that Roll and Disco are. I mean yes, she's a support bot, but of a different variety. I might be able to make it work, but at the moment I don't have any ideas for her that play off her history but don't overlap with any existing abilities for the other two.

Ran Cossack Never heard of her/him so I'll have to look into it. I'd like to avoid fan-characters (other than my own) being put into starring roles - it's just too difficult getting permission and then making sure we're both okay with how she's portrayed.

Kalinka I wanted SOOOO badly to have Kalinka as Cossack's support bot but the idea of having a human fight (especially a lady-type) seems... wrong. I hadn't considered a mecha suit, which would honestly look pretty awesome, but then she'd appear unbalanced with the other two. :|

New Robot This is the option I've settled on. The actual details of design and abilities are up in the air, but it will be another lady (we can always use more ladies) and her name will play off of Proto Man's "real" name just like Roll plays off of Mega Man's. Wonder what it'll be? ;)

Why not Jazz? It sort of plays off of "Blues" (Jazz was one of the genres influenced by Blues, as well as Rock and Roll), plus it sounds kind of cool. :)

Yeah, all of those ideas sound interesting, and Ran would be kind of fun, but Bob and George ended years ago, so finding permission would be hard. Jazz/some other name for a new robot would be cool. Can't wait to see the final result, as much as I would love to be able to go all Shadow Man on things.

Prepare guys, I think the update is pretty close to release. I might be wrong though.

The Ring Ring's mugshot scares the $%@# out of me. Kinda feels like he's staring right through the screen and into my soul... link

As for Jazz's unique support abilities (Like Roll's Supports and Disco's Assaults), perhaps an ability set that boosts your teams Energy/Attack/Defense/Speed while decreasing the enemy's? They would be weaker than both the Supports and the Assaults to balance them out. For a name...Equalizers?

I don't know how late I am, but Slur has been recently added to the database. So I think we'll be seeing some actual story progress after the update.

And a quote from Adrian just in case you people don't read all the forum posts

'...the next update which should be coming any weekend now. I can't give an exact date when it'll be done, but I can tell you guys it will be on or before October 12th. After that, I'm going to be MIA for a little while playing the new Pokémon games.'

Well I'll be playing some Pokémon as well, so maybe we should start a thread for it soon enough.

Fasten your seat belts, boys and girls! Hype train is leaving the station!

"Dear passengers, the train will be reaching its destination in--Zzrzrrttt"

Oh darn the message got cut off :/

Hoo-boy, anyone else starting to see a pattern here? ;)

Yup, something like that. The smartest fans can already start guessing which day the update will launch on.
