I just want to mention again, in case people want to know, the error message near the end of the game is caused by a marker placed on the object I was referring to in the spoiler.

Kin posted:Welp, finally beat the last boss after 2 attempts. Though I think I glitched his first form. He goes into his golden form ridiculously fast for me too. After 5 or so moves of his. Cant say I ever got him to phase 2 with just one counter tho.

the golden form is based on how much damage you deal to him afaik

Getting rid of that map marker let me beat the game. I got rid of all of them just in case. edit: I beat it in NINETEEN AND A HALF HOURS lol But I collected 100% of the items. Good Sphere fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Oct 20, 2021 |

I got my first 100% clear in about 10:30, I blame backtracking too early and too often. It'd have been nice if after getting the last EMMI or some other late game check that all the teleporters stopped being color coded and just became universal.

I remember hearing conflicting reports, but the consensus in the end seemed to be that it unlocks after you take the elevator to the final final area.

Scaevolus posted:They do. You have to find (nearly?) all of the teleporters first though. I think someone tested earlier and found out it is using the elevator up to the final boss area that turns all the teleporters universal - regardless of how many you have found. Or did that understanding change?

Thanks, for next time I play I guess the point to go on the main collectathon is literally the last minute.

Augus posted:the golden form is based on how much damage you deal to him afaik The gold form is entirely based on if you hit the room-wide charge shot counter or not. Nothing else. It’s entirely possible (and I’ve done it in a number of attempts) that you can skip the gold form part of phase 1 entirely with some good mashing with the uncharged beam during counters. My personal best is getting to phase 2 after two counters (countered the dashing gut punch then the big charge shot you duck under), but apparently with fast enough mashing (or a turbo controller I suppose?) you can get it in just *one* counter.

You don’t need to shoot him in phase 1 at all, I’m pretty sure you’re doing no damage. The only way to actually damage him is during the counter animations. I’ve gotten through it in two counters while barely shooting him at all. Anyway, I started up Zero Mission (on hard because apparently I hate myself) and while I know that you can sequence break like crazy I am following the path suggested by the game and it gets really old having to grab one item in Brinstar so I can grab one in Norfair so I can grab one in Crateria so I can grab another in Norfair so I can grab another in Brinstar so I can fight Kraid so I can grab another power up in Norfair so I can grab another on in Brinstar so I can grab another one in Norfair…

The room wide is damaged based, you gotta hit him until he turns red. Before that though I don't think he does any counterable attacks?

Before that though I don't think he does any counterable attacks? yeah, he glows red does a dashing gut punch sort of attack that's counterable. It's distinct from the normal melee combo swipes and it's what samus counters in the intro cutscene, iirc. It's random, however, as it's possible for him to not do the attack before the gold shield.

I ended up liking the EMMIs but i practically cheered when the red EMMI was killed off prematurely. I feel like they were just enough of an annoyance to be addative- but one more after the purple one would have tipped the balance for me

The purple one is bullshit and after that one I was done with EMMIs. I was really not looking forward to doing another one when suddenly, lol nope I didn't mind the EMMIs so much on my 2nd playthrough since I kinda knew where to go already and was a lot more comfortable with the game's movement mechanics. But on my first playthrough I was very meh about them.

I mean an EMMI with a multi-room wide powerbomb ability would have been the most BS obstacle the game could imagine.Blackbelt Bobman posted:You don’t need to shoot him in phase 1 at all, I’m pretty sure you’re doing no damage. The only way to actually damage him is during the counter animations. I’ve gotten through it in two counters while barely shooting him at all. I think missiles still do damage up until the gold armor comes in. Energy blasts just charge him up faster (you can tell his aura colors get more intense) so he fires the big red energy wave which you have to duck under. I always needed 3 counters (including the short one from the redwave). But maybe I should have been firing wave beams instead of missiles during them. Or maybe my fingers just cannot press the missile button fast enough.

Like I said I think I must have glitched it because it was just about 5 to 10 missiles (no counters) and within a 20 seconds he was already golden. Just seemed super quick. Then with the one counter it made me think he just started with less health or requiring fewer hits or something. It didn't seem normal but I'll take the win anyway. Edit: the only thing that stands out at me for being different to every other attempt is that at one point when ducking under his tent beam or whatever it's called, I accidentally turned to face the wrong way and spammed missiles at the wall. He turned golden just after that. Probably not related but maybe there's a hidden derp mode for really bad players. Kin fucked around with this message at 10:09 on Oct 20, 2021 |

DeafNote posted:I mean an EMMI with a multi-room wide powerbomb ability would have been the most BS obstacle the game could imagine. Don’t missiles just bounce off of him during phase 1? It makes sense that shooting him can cause him to use the huge energy attack you have to duck under but you can also counter his one melee attack and do a dashing melee attack at him when he gestures for you to come at him to get the counters. I think that he might only do the latter after the huge energy attack, but I think you can also move the fight along by countering his normal attack and showering him in missiles.

Finished it last night, awesome game. But is the implication Samus can now hulk out when under duress? Press X to activate (met)roid rage? Also why did raven beak need Samus so bad, the chozo invented metroids for Pete's sake. Like, this is a civilization that has mandatory statues holding blueprints for fricken space jumps etc on every planet they inhabit, surely someone wrote down the metroid recipe Finally, raven beak should've called Samus The Hatchling

WHY BONER NOW posted:Finished it last night, awesome game. But is the implication Samus can now hulk out when under duress? Press X to activate (met)roid rage? Raven Beak needed samus because the Thoha that made the metroids were all dead. He’s one of the few remaining Chozo alive. The original metroids were also uncontrollable past a certain stage in their lifecycle development, where a submissive human with the same X absorbing properties is much easy to direct.

Finally beat the last boss. Great game. Only change I would make is moving the last EMMI to the escape run after you get the Metroid suit. it's a cutscene boss anyway. It would have been pretty drat satisfying to blow it apart without even stopping after all the trouble they gave throughout the game.

3:18 at the final boss, 34% item collection, and I'm considering trying to figure out any missile packs nearby because I'm running out on the boss. Second phase having no way to regain ammo is mean, I don't recall this issue on my 40% run last time but I think the time I spent getting lost included some missile packs. I know in speedrunner-land gun spam is the best dps at the end, is that still the case for those of us with mortal fingers?

In your case I'd save missiles til third phase to make sure you've got enough, but, really, you can just blast him with your blaster while dodging.
