Title: Operate Shooting Star Revealed
Post by: Protodude on August 07, 2009, 06:31:16 PM
The September Coro Coro has arrived and with it comes our first look at Operate Shooting Star:

(http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/8403/124989765666916224957im.jpg)

Not much is known at the moment, but what we can gather is that SS Rockman is playable within the EXE universe. Other characters such as Harp Note, appear as well.


Other tidbits:
- SSRockman and Rockman EXE are playable.
- Clock Man (aka Clock Genius) is a Navi from the future. Interacts with characters from the EXE universe.
- Additionally, Clock Man gets his own area.
- Graphically, the game uses the sprites from EXE 1.
- There is a map for the Internet on the bottom screen
- No word on how the battles will play out. Next issue of Coro Coro might touch on this.


More info as it develops. Many thanks to TMMN (http://hhttp://www.themmnetwork.com/) for helping gather the info. This was a collaborative effort between Heat Man and myself :)

Oh cool, Geo travels back in time to the EXE universe!

Post by: Gaia on August 07, 2009, 06:44:22 PM
Looks like the style is (well, mostly) graphically unchanged, and that's 10 nostalgia points from me~

And this most likely explains Geo's buster change too.. Now if you excuse me I'll laugh at the kid who picks this issue and sees the change of his Clock Genius that was changed to "man".  XD

Also, they decided to pull an EXE5DS and added a map.. although if Inc's ripped maps were simple enough.. >>

What the hell was that about a remake then?   o-O

Can't complain though, I prefer it this way, but why did they have to use the EXE1 internet? D: Also, is it just me or did Subaru get new sprites?

[tornado fang] YEAH!

Now if there would be an anime/OVA/whatever then I will be happy.

Post by: STM on August 07, 2009, 07:42:25 PM
Now lets see how long this boat floats. Will they make it to Battle Network 3? BN6? Will the actually make BN4 not suck?!

I kind of hope it's not just a direct port of BN1 with almost no other changes. They really could stand to add more areas (Clock Man aside) and bosses, since I don't remember this one being all that hard. For example, I would like to see an actual story added to them finding Bass.EXE in Internet 16.

Even though we don't know how the battle system will work, these two factors are easily the most important.  I'm replaying EXE 1 right now, and I LONG for a Map of the Net!  XD

It's not that bad, and I'm sure they'll spruce it up a little.  It just needs some more background art and characters wandering around so it feels less like one huge, lifeless maze.

Now, I just hope for some kick ass remix of the EXE 1 Battle Theme, which is still my favorite from the EXE series.
Personally, I got a little tired of hearing "Dongle dongle dong, dongle dongle dong, dongle dongle dong, dongle dongle dong" at the beginning of every battle.  Why not put in multiple virus battle songs?

For example, I would like to see an actual story added to them finding Bass.EXE in Internet 16.
Ah yes, there should be more of an impetus to finding the secret bosses than "Oh, there is a star by my save file, I suppose I should search every dead end of the Internet again."

I'm somewhat disappointed in the area. I mean, no extra pizazz or graphics to the background?

Capcom isn't that lazy or stupid. They'll add extra stuff to the game, especially with the way the series has evolved. Even if they settle on one version, we'll be expecting forms, a super form, and the tier system used for cards/chips, which means they'll have to come up with a way to introduce Giga type chips in the game, plus they'll have to boost up the boss's since 1000 HP is NOT a whole lot, especially if there are ways to hit that in just two attacks. They'll probably also bring in some other RnR characters or introduce new characters to help out the game in itself. A battle between Burai and Forte would be pretty epic, so they won't let certain situations just fly by them.

Even better news: Futurama is continuing again :D Dunno if everyone know's it, but Fox finally caved in and put up a new season to be made.

Or this could be an attempt to go "back to basics" like MegaRockMan 9.

I wonder if there will be Chip codes now, or whatever.

Can you play as both Subaru and Rockman? If so, is there gonna be separate chips and cards? Though, I don't think Capcom would go that far.

maybe he cant go back to normal due to lack of wave holes? I dunno. although Megaman EXE can enter the wve world quite easily in SF1, so maybe He jacks in? nice. Subaru Jacks into the computer as a wave.

I am severely disappointed at the failure to design new sprites.  At this point the entire game should either be 3D or make use of larger sprites and more detailed environments.  I do however like that this is going to be a genuine crossover, but it seems like it's not even a full blown remake so far, but rather a hacked update to include changes to the story.

Once Nintendo releases a handheld that has a resolution bigger than the NES, yes please, until then, I prefer this. Rather have reused sprites than jaggies.

I'm hoping they mix in some of the Network Transmission exclusive navis (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V04FVBbluw&fmt=18) to pad this out. I mean, who do we got? (Video contains other BN1 and BN2 navis... like QuickMan.EXE)

-NeedleMan.EXE
-BrightMan.EXE
-SwordMan.EXE
-GravityMan.EXE
-StarMan.EXE
-Zero.EXE

Tack those onto...

-GutsMan.EXE
-FireMan.EXE
-NumberMan.EXE
-StoneMan.EXE
-WoodMan.EXE
-IceMan.EXE
-SkullMan.EXE
-ColorMan.EXE (I have a feeling he'll be adopting his new name WackoMan.EXE from the anime, much like AquaMan.EXE got that retarded SpoutMan name)
-ElecMan.EXE
-Protoman.EXE
-BombMan.EXE
-MagicMan.EXE (WizardMan? Hope not.)
-SharkMan.EXE
-PharaohMan.EXE
-ShadowMan.EXE (These last two are also Network Transmission alumni)
-Bass.EXE
-Life Virus (another NT alumni)
-ClockMan.EXE

Plenty to kick the crap out of, but it never hurts to have some more, eh?
Title: Re: Operate Shooting Star Revealed

Navis did more damage (most navis were pretty offensive attackers.. roll was the only healer (support chip) out of that group) and non-navis did way more various things (barriers, healing AND powering up), that was the only way to seperate them both, hah. gotta love that system. before the whole S/M/G/Se classes were introduced (BTW, Se means "Secret").
Title: Re: Operate Shooting Star Revealed
Post by: Bag of Magic Food on August 09, 2009, 04:17:32 AM
And Navis all have star icons, and you can only have 5 Navi chips in your folder instead of 10 of any kind like the rest.  It's so limited, but that's because they're so good!

Post by: Gaia on August 09, 2009, 04:21:09 AM
And that's what made the series unique and seperates it from the rest of the platformers my friend, in 4 AND 3, I had a Metalman Battlechip (V3) in my deck just to tick those who like close range battles.  :V

Post by: HyperSonicEXE on August 09, 2009, 04:30:43 AM
Forte's too SOL; a 100 aura and 1000 HP are nothing for Omega-Xis and EmoBoy.

And now we've (essentially) got TimeMan, here's hoping for OilMan.

That's why I loved the old chip system, which you wouldn't have to do something crazy to get a Se-Class Final Boss Chip or something. I find the whole "Se" hunt pointless too. I never really cared for the plot; as long I can disperse the enemies with my pea shooter (which can be upgraded into a blaster) I'll be good.

God I loved the AR glitch that caused Heat Guts to rapid fire for two seconds of [twin slasher]. loved it. they should bring back the [twin slasher] buster too~

Not sure what you mean; I'm thinking it would be nice to have enough dimension that it's easy to tell what rows things are in, but the camera should be on the side of the field, not behind Mega's back.

Current thoughts on this:
Clock Man's sprite looks out of place, as if the shading is completely different from the other sprites.
Subaru and Harp Note look like simple sprite edits of Megaman.EXE and Roll.EXE, respectively.
Either the ingame scan of Clock Man is on a pre-rendered background, or the clock they're standing on is 3D.

Never was a fan of the BN/RnR series, but this peaks my interest. A crossover between two series? What could this possibly mean for the 'regular' series in the future?  o~O

Probably because it's completely new as opposed to the other characters?

Wouldn't be surprising if it was 3D. I mean, it is a completely new area as well, they might as well try something new.

interesting how they made the subaru and harpnote sprites taller so they dont look like midgets compared to the others.

They just redid them in BN1-3 style as opposed to BN4+ style.  Which is fine by me, I think BN4's sprites onward are awful.

I'm not sure what to think about this game.  What battle system they use for it will probably weigh heavilly on my opinion of it.

The battles were the whole fun of the EXE/BN series. Notice how I neglected R/SF. Yeaaaaah.

As far as sprites go, y'all, MMSF1 felt like an exact replica of an EXE game. Sure, maybe there were more objects on-screen, animations more fluid, etc., but the Cygnus Wing and Queen Op...whatever, the snake...segments of the game really took me back.

And that's not a good thing when it's supposed to be a NEW series for UPGRADED hardware.

- Another game series, Ryuusei no Rockman, will cross over with the world of EXE.
- What will this new title have in store for the two heroes?

It seems like BN3 had the hardest boss' in the entire series. There was no real easy way to decimate them for whatever reason. Beast Man was too quick and powerful (speaking of which, why is it that Beast Man looks more like Slash man than Slash Man's navi counterpart?), Flame Man has that stupid aura thing caused by his candles, Plant Man is annoying to hit, Desertman has tons of walls to hid behind (his hands, the stone statues he creates, and I'm sure he had some other way to stop you from attack him), Bubble Man is...I don't even need to explain, and drill man is hard to hit unless you have a spread shot attack or something..

The official site updated today.

Due to lazyness I'll just quote TMMN;

Quote from: TMMN
Today Capcom of Japan has revamped their official Rockman EXE Operate Shooting Star homepage (http://www.capcom.co.jp/rockman/exe_oss/index.html) for future updates, following Clark’s unexpected journey to 200 years in the past.

The new website so far contains basic background details to both the Battle Network series and Star Force series in order to get users acquainted with the content. There’s also a page meant to discuss the new elements for the DS port, which shows off some screens as well as ClockMan. According to the site, ClockMan’s intentions seem to involve him wanting to change the course of events in the past.

Finally, there’s a section for the development staff to discuss matters, and includes a mail form for fans to send their memories from the BN series. So far the page contains a welcome to fans and a neat picture of Lan and MegaMan.

Unfortunately little else is shown, but more updates are likely to be on their way, so we’ll keep you posted.

This looks great! Also, forgive me if I repeat anything, but I think the EXE1 sprites are like that is because SS uses the same sprite style (no dark outline and similar sizes like EXE4-6 and, I think, SS1). I'm guessing that Clock Genius/Man came from the future to the EXE timeline, and Geo and Omega-Xis followed him there.

The map will help with the EXE1-era Internet, I'm sure. Needed to use maps to find my way through it anyways. And Bass should have some story, especially now that we know his backstory and all.

And more music! Maybe it'll change based on whether MegaMan.EXE or MegaMan (SS) is playing, and maybe there'll be viruses from SS in this timeline! Still, I will get this!

Also, maybe you'll get an SF Buster PowerUp in this!

Notice how the DS's higher resolution lets you see slightly more on the edges.  That must be why I can't get the background squares to line up perfectly.

The experimental program acted a bit strange, and Clark-san fell into a Time Slip.
According to the analysis of Dr. Yoiri (Dr. Goodall), the Time Slip dragged Clark-san 200 years into the past.
A mysterious evil organization is making a move into said Time Slip.

I would only like Add if you could increase up to 15, you didn't have to sacrifice chips, AND you didn't go back to 5 after using some.  Otherwise it's just not worth it.

Why would there be two different versions?  I thought it was just one game.

I meant the in-game Rock Man(s) <.< Like it seems as if that screen-cap for battle is connected to RockMan.EXE, so I'm wondering (since both are playable) if the game changes up for Subaru when it comes to combat.

People are actually complaining about the loss of the Starforce battle system?

NEWSFLASH: That's why Starforce blows! Both in terms of gameplay and sales numbers.
EDIT: And even if MMSF3's battle system did supposedly fix the problem, it's 2 games too late, 1 late if you're an extreme sucker.

No complaints here if the Battle Network 1 chip structure was modified to offer more fluidity. I don't exactly remember it being too friendly for forming some good decks, but to be fair:

1) It's the first game. None of the refinements that came in later were present, obviously.
2) The 15-chip select made things a little risky, especially with chips having not too much overlap in terms of chip codes.
3) Enemies were very weak and didn't require strong deck combinations. Let's also tack on that there was no PvP.

And the Program Advances weren't all that strong, either. Sword/WideSword/LongSword netted you a 3-stage attack that wasn't very much stronger at all. But the charge shot had oomph! That I miss!

It was double what you put in: 2 Swords, followed by 2 WideSwords, followed by 2 LongSwords!  6 swords for the price of 3!  Yay!

...So um, yeah, Battle Network 1 had maybe a few too many Program Advances that were just using the same chip extra times.  I still hope to work BetaSword or SigmaSword into the TAS though!

- The Custom window has received an EXE2 - EXE 6 overhaul. Chip selection has been cut down to two rows to accommodate chip codes. * coded chips are present.
- "Escape" has been assigned to the L button. In the original game, "escape" was a Battle chip.

I hope to god they aren't using the original Mugshots for the NPC's.  As nice as they looked back on the GBA, I don't think they fit in with the new ones for Netto and Rockman. Also, the original "Add" System? It better be so that you can keep 10 chips after you add... and not have it go back to 5...  Another thing is they better put the new MD system in and not have both Green/Blue be random.

I don't mind the level system thing they had, it really just kept track of what you were missing and whatnot in terms of power-ups, and because they're using it, there's a good chance they'll have the buster upgrades back from 1 and 2 (no matter how awesome the Customizer got in later games, I honestly believed that 1 and 2 dealt with the buster WAY better). Escape as a button and not a chip is a great thing, because it was a pain to have to waste one of your chips for that just for a 1 in 5 chance of being able to run from the battle so you aren't wasting time. The chip system used in BN2 and 3 is also a somewhat welcome addition since now if I find a useless chip at the start, I can toss it away to pull out a third of the remaining folder, which helps out a lot in looking for particular combos and such.

No Wi-Fi is a stupid thing to do; I mean, most of the friggin' time when you played against someone in those games, it was with someone online, which pretty much meant that the Star Force series got the most amount of PvP done. The series isn't as popular as Pokemon, not everyone has a cart laying around and plays it a lot, and because each game is specific to what it can hook up with, the odds of finding someone who was around your area of progress in a particular game was close to nothing.

It's official for me, but I won't be getting the game. They half-assed quite a bit with this 'remake' while in some other areas they excelled really well in. They went through the trouble of giving Subaru his own sprite sheet for battle and changed the mug shots for Lan and MM.EXE, but they didn't even bother to change the background, layout, or mug shots of other important characters.

It wouldn't, but there's the release date. I think they have enough time to upgrade it, basically, they might just take their time. it's why SF failed at one end: felt rushed and short, it could also explain X7 too, they might need longer release dates to overhaul everything on time.

I liked ClockMan.exe's design better when I thought that the clock hand on the backdrop was jutting from his head.

And hey, a few of the menus are redrawn!  That's nice.  But why are the Mettool HP values still left of center?  It looks like a mistake, but you would think that someone would have corrected that by now.

but I AM gonna miss that escape chip.
Gotta love Rockman leaping away from those Mettools!  So long, suckers!

Bleh, I would rather set it up so I don't have any chips I would consider "useless" in the first place.  Really, the BN1 Add system would have been perfect if it didn't keep snapping back to 5.  Otherwise you give up too much for too little gain.  But I'm no expert on game design, so maybe it'll turn out to be fun anyway!

I saw those when I said that, I'm kinda pissed at their laziness... Use the ones from BN5-6 for fucks sake. Those BN1-3 ones are hideous.
What, really?  I'd rather see the old mugshots that still look decent to me than the dippy-looking overworld sprites from the second half of the series.

Another thing is they better put the new MD system in and not have both Green/Blue be random.
With the only two purple ones in the oven system!  What was up with that?  Did they just forget they had that purple color after the first dungeon, then when they made Battle Network 2, noticed it was the rarest color and therefore made that the special unlockable kind?

Though the series wrapped up three years ago, thanks to the players Rockman EXE is able to sell once again.

I guess it was because I was more expecting less replaying EXE 1, more Geo dicking around and trying to avoid causing time paradoxes with limited interaction from the other characters. The story would be slightly more original then. I'm holding out there's an "other side story" like that unlockable, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Yeah, seems like everyone had much greater expectations when the game was first announced.  We saw "EXE meets Shooting Star!" and imagined some amazing, all-new game that would dramatically expand on both series, but with the main focus on Star Force, because that's the latest series after all!  I wonder if it would have been better to first announce it as "So hey, we're porting Exe 1 to DS", and then gradually announce new features, so we'd be pleased with all the additions rather than all the omissions of features imagined by the fans.

It probably wouldn't have caught a big initial buzz outside of remake enthusiasts. Honestly, the more they reveal about this game, the less interesting it seems to get. I wasn't fond of EXE 1 and to replay it with it mostly intact is pretty dull. Maybe it'll sell enough to warrant doing it in EXE 2? I wouldn't mind replaying that with the Gospel chips and Dark Messiah actually obtainable (and likely gimped.)

EXE1 with 2-6 combat changes will be much better. And with a map and 2 Megamen, this game might have some replay value.

Although 2 was the only BN paced-enough to warrant a second replay. 3 JUST DRAGS ON AND ON, what with backtracking and the Fire/Aqua chip-using puzzles.

No. Not unless they are not lazy and actually make something NEW and not a port with an extra character.

November Coro Coro:


[spoiler](http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/1336/701170.jpg)(http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/2871/715100.jpg/)(http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/2785/wwwdotuporg257942.jpg/)[/spoiler]


    * Operate Shooting Star demo on Nintendo Channel (Wii) and DS Download Stations later this fall.
    * The sister magazine of Coro Coro Comics will begin running a new comic starring Rockman EXE and a new operator that isn't Lan/Netto.
    * Forte is a playable character in the Rockman Star Colosseum mini-game.
    * new Navi chip for SSRockman, deals 100 damage and coded S.

    * Insight on Clock Man's scenario:  he wants to make Roll and Harp Note his wives... (possibly a joke on 2ch's part).  According to TMMN, the third scan states that Clock Man "has run off to 200 years in the past with Harp Note. Here SF MegaMan is at WAXA with his friends and Dr. Goodall saying he needs to go after them. Meanwhile, 200 years in the past, Mayl claims that Roll has been kidnapped by a blue Navi. Naturally, Lan and MegaMan EXE go to rescue Roll. This in turn seems to pin SF MegaMan as the criminal, which will likely lead to their battle."

    * New mugshot for Mayl.
    * Scan confirms presence of Bud, Luna, Zack and Dr. Goodall.

Haha, the manga art style is cute, I might give it a shot, but who's the artist? And I knew the EXE1 Mugshots were only placeholders, it would be awhile until the necessary ones get thier enhancements.

Roll and Harp being wives to Clock? giggity. His (SSR) chip seems very powerful, since the chips in the first game stop at 100 or so before the 2000 Hp+ final bosses (Duo, Gospel, etc) rolled around in the sequels.

Sheild looks very meh, but wait, unused sprite is finally being used? MADNESS. Rockman Star Colosseum mini-game is starting to remind me of NT more and more. :)

At first, I wasn't too excited with this.
But now, when it's near release... I kind of am.
IT might have something to do with the fact, that I have fond memories of EXE series.
Well, except EXE 4 of course. : P
