Attention! This is a legacy build of the Mega Man RPG from 2017 and is no longer being maintained.
Reported bugs will not be fixed and any progress made here will not be saved.

play the current version of the game for all the new stuff.
So, it turns out that Ice Man's Ice Breath ability has a potentially game breaking side effect.
If a member of your team gets KO'd while being Frozen by it, it'll still linger on that team member for the rest of the battle--I found this out the hard way when I used an Extra Life on Bass during the battle I just had with Cut Man and Ice Man in Light Chapter 4.
Now, it was a lengthy and woolly battle as it was leading up to the point where the game break occurred. Cut Man was down, as was both Fleas and the Peng. Of the 4 that I brought into this fight--Proto Man, Bass, Time Man and Mega Man--only an extremely weak Mega Man and a newly revived [and Frozen] Bass remained on my side, and Ice Man's HP was in the yellow. I really could've sworn that I'd have this.
Now, I'd have had Mega tag Bass into the battle, but, Bass was Frozen. Unable to act. So, I had no choice but to allow Ice Man to KO Mega Man.
Cue the game break; The team selection Menu popped up with all 4 of my team transparent. Bass, included. His Frozen status hadn't worn out yet, and because I couldn't bring him in, I was stuck in purgatory, only 1 or 2 Turns away from winning.
It's also worth mentioning that I'd burned 2 Energy Tanks and the aforementioned Extra in this fight, and, so far as I can see, they're all gone.
So, yeah, never use an Extra on a Frozen team member unless there's more than one other surviving member of your team.
.....my luck sucks. -_____-
Game-breaking bug concerning Ice Man's Ice Breath... Posted by ThatGuyNamedMikey on September 8th, 2014 at 12:44pm Viewed 1014 Times
Anyway, I can't see any way that this wasn't a bug, so hopefully Adrian gets this fixed sometime soon. At least your luck leads to finding bizarre random things that should't happen.
Anyway, for further reference if you find a bug, report it here
