Tails completely breaks encore mode. I just flew over the first boss and Mighty did all the work trying to match the button input for flying.

Couple questions regarding Encore Mode: 1. Can you save or do you have to do it all in one shot? 2. Are there any new stages and/or bosses? 3. Are Mighty and Ray playable in the main campaign or just in Encore Mode?

First impressions are weird. It's been awhile since I played but was Tails always this heavy? It feels like he can't just fly straight up right away, he has to fall a bit before he can climb up. It's really unpleasant E: New special stages are hard as gently caress out the gate, wew ThisIsACoolGuy fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Jul 17, 2018 |

Screaming Idiot posted:It looks good, but S3&K looks so much better, and it's decades old. I don't want to let aesthetics keep me from considering one of the best Sonic games of all tine though. The new sprite set has twice as many frames and lots of incidental animation and studiopolis looks awesome and you're wrong

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HSc3ASFoG8 What an amazing end to the mini-series. I just wish SEGA would consider hiring Tyson and his crew to make more animated Sonic stuff in the future. Has Metal Sonic ever been able to use the Chaos Emeralds like this? Super Metal Sonic is such a DBZ thing, especially him trying to use the Master Emerald for his final form. Also Knuckles is just the best.  I love how he's just doing his job protecting the Emerald and then peacing out of there.

Perhaps I am just a dumb idiot, but what are the controls for the pinball bonus mode? D-pad doesn't seem to do anything, so I'm curious if it's only ABXY that control it. If so, that seems... bad.

Minor glitch, I beat the boss at the end of Studiopolis Act 1, then I got bumped back to the area before the boss, controlling Ray (who I hadn't even touched until then) and had to do the boss again. Bizarre.

Been wanting to replay Mania for awhile now and have been patiently waiting for Plus so today is a great day. Game is still good you guys.  It took me some experimenting to figure out how the gently caress Ray's flying works but once I figured it out and got the hang of it, it's really drat fun to use and it's a lot more controllable than you'd think. Tails has been my favorite since I was a tiny child and now Ray is just as awesome. Guess I'm just a fly guy.

Ray works kinda similar to Mario’s cape in SMW.

Will say Rays sprite looks... really bizarre? When he's alone it's fine but now that I'm seeing him next to tails his head is like, twice as big.

would've rather there's DLC that lets you use sonic (the only fun character in any sonic game) with all of his moves at the same time instead of playable sonichu and red sonic TBQHWYF

I've made it to Mirage Saloon with four emeralds, that'll do for tonight. The new special stage layouts are kicking my rear end, but there's some cool additions that help switch things up nicely.

I played a few minutes of Plus this morning, and I'm loving both Mighty and Ray. Mighty's ground pound just has so much weight to it; it's great. And Ray's flying and dorky animations are a lot of fun, too.

I genuinely do not know how you're supposed to get the emerald in the *first* special stage I get up to mach 3 and it's just gone. Can do some laps with minimal errors and I just never see it again. Like I hope I'm not the only one who thinks that they're horribly overkill now

They somehow made Ray even more broken than Cape Mario lmao also I haven't seen it talked about much since it's a smaller change but all the bonus options for the main game are no longer no-save mode only. I'll finally play Knuckles & Knuckles mode now I guess

So how exactly does Ray's flight work? It seems that if you hold down he'll glide a bit but if you press up he'll nosedive into the ground. Is there a way to gain extra height though (like starting the glide from higher up or something)? Also, besides Angel Island and the last phase of the Metal Sonic fight are there any other new stages/bosses (or at very least new variations on some of the old ones)?

You press left / right to adjust Ray's flight angle, not up / down

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:I genuinely do not know how you're supposed to get the emerald in the *first* special stage That's the only one I've gotten so far (and I have yet to see what the other special stages throw at you. frankly, I'm a little worried). Strategy is: get to Mach 2 on the first lap, before you hit the mach up orb near the end of the track. From there, it's a matter of playing the track well enough until you catch up with the UFO. The whole thing took me four attempts. It's surprising on how difficult that the first special stage was, considering it's the first one.

The IGN review was right. Encore Mode is half baked. The “lives” system is pointlessly limiting, character switching outside of your core two relying on a power up AND being random is just dumb, and the new bonus stage’s physics make me miss Blue Sphere.

I'm fine with the lives system but everything else I agree with If the monitors just moved you down a line instead of just being completely random I think I'd like that mechanic more. Like <- S <- T <- K <- M <- R <- If you have Sonic and Tails and you hit a box you go to Tails and Knuckles. Hit a box and Knuckles and Mighty etc.
