Here's an idea; two selectable characters, as usual, but both have different storylines altogether, yet exist at the same time to the point that the stories intersect from time to time. Essentially two different sides of the story, instead of retreading everything twice. That would be awesome IMHO.

Yeah, that was I thinking too however...

The game would have to be
A) half as long per character
B) in development much longer
C) more expensive
D) a combination of the above
to accomodate.


And why would Capcom want to take that long on a MegaMan game anyway? I have to agree on two different characters, storylines and biometals especially if all they are going to do is just rehash thje same stuff anyway. I really wish that they didn't take one year to create a new MegaMan when they just rehash the same stuff and add more graphics to it. I wish that they would work on the game and try to make a bit more fun also even if it takes a long time to do so, I am willing to wait a year and a half for a fantastic MM game rather than just another MegaMan game where it not only repeats the same stuff but they used already in the last game. I really wish that they take some more elements besides fire/ice/lightning and add in some ground/bug/ghost or anything. I already seen what Inti put in MM9 with Splash Woman, Tornado Man and Magma Man but seriously we need more elements than that.

- no more fire-ice-lightning circle. have the weakness circle return to Mega Man roots.
More fire-ice-lightning-scissors-rocks-bombs circles, then.

put in more classic or x series robots as models,
Have they made a Model C that lets you run around with scissors on your head yet?

What would I want?

3 playable characters. Not separated storylines, but rather one story where the 3 paths intersect at times but each have their own significance.

And the three characters would be: Prometheus, Pandora, and a new Chosen One.

The Chosen one would be a choice between an angry emo male kid, and a truly psychopathic but extremely hot female. The Bio Metal in question would be Model V (VAVA/Vile.)

In all honesty, having a modified version of Vile's play style from MHX in a ZX game would be orgasmic.

The story is Prometheus and Pandora managed to survive the underwater lab explosion. When they fully regain their minds and abilities, Albert is dead as a door-nail, Ouroboros is sunk. Thomas has fully revealed himself to the world, and the [parasitic bomb] hits the fan. Thomas tricks the world into believing that Aile/Vent and Grey/Ashe are truly evil and had their own plans all along, and a war between the Guardians and Legion ensues. Mikhail barely escapes with his life and defects to the Guardians.

In the current world, thanks to modifications made due to the Equality Laws passed by Thomas and Albert, Reploids under normal circumstances can never reach the level of power and ability that reploids of old did, like X, Zero, Vile, Sigma, etc. However Thomas (as indicated by the secret ending of ZXA) releases the controls that put such limits on Reploids and Modified Humans. Anyone who is on Thomas's side becomes able to become much more powerful.

Prometheus and Pandora are tired of all the conspiracies, and in general all the bull[parasitic bomb] of the world. They wish to destroy the world, not in the physical sense, but rather destroy the most powerful institutions, after which chaos would ensue, and they hope whatever new world is born after that chaos would be better than the current world. Just one problem: They are powerful, but there is no way in hell just the two of them can fight a two-pronged war against both the Guardians and Thomas controlled Legion. It is at this point they come across information  that could make their dreams feasible.

A bio-metal has been discovered. This bio-metal is a left over project of Albert's. It would essentially have been the demonic right hand of the New Mega Man King. However, the soul that Albert used to power this bio-metal was highly unstable and did not differentiate between friend and foe. So Albert sealed Model V away.

After the destruction of Ouroborous, which Model V was on, it was discovered by Illegal Raiders, not knowing what it really was, except that it was a bio-metal and therefore could be really valuable. Since the events of ZXA, the Raiders had built a new underground main base. However, upon discovery of its existence, both the Guardians and Legion sent Spec-Ops teams to retreive it.

Meanwhile, a girl in her late teenage years, who had recently escaped from prison. She was wandering around about two days before the Illegal Raider base was attacked. She, with her skills, manages to infiltrate the base. She is about to initiate a plan to kill everyone there for fun, when Raider radar detects both groups. She decides to kill them instead. She manages to snipe and blow up several enemies from both sides, but the large number of spec-ops is too much for her, and she starts to receive injuries, and she starts trying to run.

However, she can't run for long, and is pinned down in a cargo room. With Guardians flooding in from one entrance, and Coalition forces in the other, she is trapped. Since the two opposing forces open fire on each other, this buys her a little bit of time, but she knows the victorious side will come for her soon. That's when she hears a voice.

"This is [acid burst]ing me off! I want to be strong! I want to be free! But I'm a freaking piece of floating metal being fought over like some inanimate weapon!!!"

She looks around.

"Who said that?"

"Whoa, what the hell, you can hear me kid?"

After a conversation I don't feel like typing out, the two Mega Merge. The girl fights her way out of the facility, only to walk into a giant two-pronged ambush. However, Prometheus and Pandora cause massive damage to the ambush party, and manage to teleport her out......




Holy [parasitic bomb], I went way of tangent, and this story would probably never happen. But I can dream..... 8D

Why would anyone want to play as this character? Girl's a moron. :/

Just as long that keep let use the Chaser until the end of stage and not at certain moments where we cannot use them any more or get let s use the Ride Chaser anywhere in the game.

In that case it would speed you up and you would have full control over it, just like in X2.

Agreed. It'd be interesting to see him fight with his sword thingie.


Here's something to ponder about: Would you prefer ZX3 take place right after the events of ZXA or a few years after ZXA, a time jump?

Since Thomas just turned evil right in front of Mikhail chances are it'll be right after.

concerning the real villain, i'd imagine it would be Model W itself. notice how its the only (canonical) Biometal not to have sentience? well, i could easily see Thomas awakening said sentience in Model W, which isn't necessarily Weil, but is incredibly similar. you know, just like how Model A isn't exactly Axl.

what i could see happening is Model W staying under Thomas' control for like the first half of the game or something like that. but Model W will eventually overthrow Thomas and assume its role as Big Boss.

if Model W isn't the main villain, i imagine Grey would be. he is Albert Jr. after all. perhaps Thomas could awaken his true purpose, Grey gets rid of Thomas, and takes Model W for himself. he'd probably take Model A with him. i don't know if that means there'd be an AW form, but it doesn't sound too farfetched.

if Grey does keep Model A while in Angry Mode, that does leave Ashe up [parasitic bomb]'s Creek. i doubt they'd get rid of her, so her gameplay would have to be tweaked a little. i don't think she could be given another Biometal, so i could only see her getting a bunch of weapons to use a la X8 Axl. give her a jetpack so she can dash and hover for a while, and she could probably keep up with Vent and Aile.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

*Ha! That's a good one!*

And you know, instead of a Ride Chaser why not Aile's Blue Bike. I can imagine the intro scene...

Model X Aile riding a Bike then explodes... 8D *GBD Reference*

I prefer it right after ZXA because I want a Grand Duel with Rockman Model X, & with Rockman Model A also.

True Model X was fun as hell to play with but it seems too powerful. o.o
(Charge shot + BIG Charge shot = a whole crap-load of damage!!!)

I don't think Model A will be in the next game unless they have a flash back. If you remember the ending Grey/Ashe and Model A leave to travel the world basically leaving Vent/Aile to clean up any other Irregular messes.

This, preferably of RMZ4 caliber. I swear that game spoiled me for musical quality in a 2D Rockman/Megaman game.
