Nothing beats playing with the PB Saber.

Protoman, HOOO!

I pretty much do what everyone else around here does: shoot to the music whenever possible, jump/slide/dash through a door, keep the buster charged (only in the X and later series). I used to jump all over the place (in the game) when playing MML (I say 'used to' because I haven't played Legends in a long time). I only use the buster and rarely use any weapons (only use them when necesary)...oh yeah, and I talk to myself whenever I play.

Edit: Apparently I still keep my buster charged in the original series as well, but I guess it's no biggie. I did it as a child, and I'll certainly keep doing it to this day.

I shoryuken down the hole to Sigma in X2. And I shoryuken Agile instantly as soon as I start fighting him.

Fxeni · **Reply #28 on:** May 04, 2009, 05:03:29 AM

I rarely use weapons. To challenge myself, I try to avoid all upgrades possible, although I do have times where I run through the games with everything, demolishing all in my path. I also always keep something charged when it's applicable.

Oh yeah, I have to yell out Hadouken or Shoryuken whenever I use them, or else it just feels wrong.

I cheat and use Game Genie or Game Shark.

And I usually use an emulator when I can.

MereBytes · **Reply #33 on:** May 04, 2009, 09:58:29 PM

The way I play is that I try not lose any health on levels and I start level all over again if I do. I also collect everything I can...
I've got a few youtube vids if anyone's is interested (PM)(MMZ games only, haven't had motivation to record other than MMZ series)

Shinichameleon / Nayim · **Reply #34 on:** May 05, 2009, 02:35:41 PM

I love jumping at Boss gate without any reason

Especially Gravityman's stage, almost going foward into gate.

Elpis TK31 · **Reply #35 on:** May 05, 2009, 07:04:39 PM

Releasing the charge button while sliding in R4, and pushing it down again before the slide ends.

Other quirks...I slash/shoot while walljumping in ZX, oh and I turbodash (rapid forward) while the slow guy in Anubis' mission follows you...hmm...other than that, just speedrunning.

Jumping thru the gates, huzzah! Also standing subpixel from the gate and then entering it, you know, I bet everyone will have same facial expression and behave like normal while having ability to move while sliding without moving (lol). Speaking of abilities, I mainly use P-Buster, when I have Mega Buster/X Buster/whateva I rarely charge when not needed because sound is annoying. I RARELY use any special weapons, I would more likely risk death than using Rush or weapons special abilities (and that makes some stages harder for me than they really are). I always go through the lasers in Quickman's stage without using Flash Stopper (it's useful for Quickman itself, or I just pwn him with one correctly placed Crash Bomber). And I always suceed

(it got a bit boring, though. You know, being perfect all the time is not so nice). Speaking of Crash Bombs, if boss is relatively easy to me I always try to beat him after dying. Having orbs frozen on screen after beating boss is priceless

Just all what I can remember, I will post/edit if I recall something more.

Hypershell · **Reply #37 on:** May 10, 2009, 11:48:45 PM

My style varies with the game, but generally I tend to give high priority to non-weapon support items. Rush, X's armors, and such.

Also always nice to be flashy. I generally like to jump in and give all the enemies heck, although I am capable of tip-toeing my way through for no damage (did it in Zero), but that's just not the way I have fun. Part of why I love X6 so much, you can tank yourself up to ridiculous levels and plow through equally ridiculous mobs in Gate's Lab.

Mirby · **Reply #38 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:38:22 PM

In the Classic timeline, I utilize what I call the Hit & Run Strategy until the bosses. Yes, I charge through enemies in a mad dash to kill the boss! Then I try to use strategy to defeat the boss.

In EXE and Star Force, I fill my folder with the strongest chips possible. I've only recently seen the wisdom of using Recov Chips and Barriers (in EXE I used the FstBarr NCP, SF I use the equivalent program in 2 and do without in 1). In Battle Chip GP, I use what I judge to be the best elemental Navis (High MB, High HP, High AP). So I use Bass, ThunMan (with stun chips), WoodMan (with TreeBoms), IceMan (BigCloud!), and HeatMan (Meteor5!), and many swords. The elements are spread equally in my folder.

Flok · **Reply #39 on:** June 20, 2009, 01:38:29 PM

I priorize the bosses on the select screen, I seek my target and unleash my balls of steel.

Generally speaking, I prefer using only the Mega Buster, unless someone like High Max is in my way.

I walk in Classic Mega Man and dash in Mega Man games beyond. I press R everywhere in Battle Network and StarForce in order for me to jack in or go on air.

Frozen Potato · **Reply #40 on:** June 21, 2009, 01:46:15 PM

dash like crazy,slash like crazy,shoot like crazy,dodge like crazy,jump like crazy,wall jump like crazy and so on...

Acrosurge · **Reply #42 on:** June 28, 2009, 02:07:30 AM

I tend to "combo" bosses; I hit 'em with a charged Buster blast, then immediately nail 'em with their weakness. Don't know that it takes bosses down any quicker, I just like the idea. I'm a big fan of the games in which you can use the Buster and special weapons simultaneously. I'm a huge fan of MHX, in which I always start stacking weapons once I have them (example: Charged Rolling Shield or Chameleon Sting while using the X-Buster, Storm Tornado, or Hadouken).

Romantic Fool · **Reply #43 on:** August 09, 2009, 05:59:42 AM

I try to play without getting hit much, but aside from the original, X, and legend series, I just main the sword and slash.

Original, X, and legends, keep something charged, move around a lot, avoid getting hit. I fail pretty hard at it though.

Archer · **Reply #44 on:** August 09, 2009, 01:06:45 PM

Normally.

Nexus · **Reply #45 on:** August 09, 2009, 01:13:58 PM

Charged shots stored up, Buster only bosses (unless I die once on the boss, have low health going in, or the boss is an absolute pain without their weakness (read: High Max)), grabbing every upgrade and item considered useful ASAP, conservative "stay the [tornado fang] away from harmful objects" play style. That about sums it up. $:\$

ParasiteBirth · **Reply #46 on:** August 10, 2009, 09:06:32 AM

I take my time and enjoy the game, if its MM9 I try to beat my record everytime.

Star Man · **Reply #47 on:** August 27, 2009, 10:52:15 AM

After being exposed to TAS videos for the X series a while ago, I am usually flying through stages by one-shotting many enemies with special weapons because it's faster and I enjoy kidding myself that most of them are useful. I also do not like standing still and I'm always on the move pumping shots at the air or something.
