The best part of the MGR thread was absolutely 20 different goons getting to Armstrong and flat bricking.

It does mention that the Hand can get fiery from flames in the section for it in the Unite Morphs menu but yeah otherwise it doesn't tell you that in the tutorials. I am up to the start of Operation 5 and really liking this. For some reason I skipped this back when it was on the Wii U (I even played the demo. I have no excuse).

Pirate Jet posted:Wonderful 101 straight up doesn’t tell you some things, but MGR does that and sometimes even the things it tells you are worthless. I still know people who couldn’t figure out how to parry based on the tutorial they gave, and the vast majority of players I talked to didn’t know you could cut off Sundowner’s shield - so they missed the game teaching them to cut through multiple points (and ate poo poo when Armstrong started throwing rocks.)

Depending on setting you played on cutting those rocks are way harder.

Does anyone know what if the remastered version still has the extra character cheat codes in and if so can anyone tell me what the buttons are to use for the switch?

Since the switch has the same buttons, I'm assuming the code would be the same? It has really specific conditions though (Obviously spoilers in this link) https://www.platinumgames.com/official-blog/article/6933

So if anyone could try it and tell me I would be grateful.

Alright alright so I just beat 002-B and got a bronze on this one and the last. I started off with consolation prizes so I'm moving up. Just finished a different game I was playing so I have more time to focus on this bad boy.

Regarding MGR I didn't have any problem with Sundowner shields but the parry tutorial is indeed dogshit and will happily register your task as valid even if you haven't managed to do a single parry, on top of being terrible at explaining how you even input them. That makes for an intersting brick wall when you fight Blade Wolf.

I guess I never struggled with it because the game enters bullet time and I used the stick-flick method instead of the button press method and found it very easy. But I’ll cop to dying on the exploading bridge in the first level like 10 times so you don’t think I’m just bragging lmao

Can you change difficulty ingame? I've gotten to the end of Operation 001 on Normal but I kinda wanna drop it down because while I'm enjoying the story and comedy, the actual gameplay just feels messy and unfun to me. It just isn't clicking yet, and I wanna see more of the game before I give up on it.

It just isn't clicking yet, and I wanna see more of the game before I give up on it. I really wish they had just gutted the second screen function from the mission menu cause it makes stuff like this way to easy to miss, but yeah. You can change difficulty anytime by pressing select on the mid-mission menu. (where the Wonder Mart is) I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure you just have to use the Dpad to select your difficulty, and you can also lower the number of Wonderful Ones for a starting mission... If you're a masochist, I guess. Don't be afraid to bump down the difficulty! Kamiya's normal is everyone's hard. And don't shoot for ranks! Experiment! I feel more people would have a good time if they could just shut off that part of their brains where they know they're being judged. Also a custom block that reduces the penalty for striking super armor. With how hectic this game can get, having a way to fully circumvent a mechanic like that for newer players would go a long way. More so than the full automatic. I'm also preetty sure (in the original) bumping down to very easy nets you the auto guts block, but I could be wrong about that. Oh, and you should never worry about getting a Pure Platinum, ever. It is not necessary for any of the unlocks or anything. The highest the game expects is that every operation eventually gets platinum. So you can cheese through some tougher fights with some golds and even miss a few missions. (Though I think every Kahkoo-Regah is required) It's solely for bragging rights. UnintelGen fucked around with this message at 05:17 on May 13, 2020 |

Yeah I kind of wish this had a mode like Astral Chain where scoring was disabled. It would make things more enjoyable for a lot of players.

# ? May 13, 2020 04:24 |

I'm all for options, but I think the scoring does more good than bad. When I played this game and Bayonetta for the first time years ago on Wii U I ignored the scoring completely and was kind of confused why anyone liked these games. I only really started getting more into them once I paid more attention to the scoring and I realized it was forcing me to play the game in a more fun way. If you ignore the scoring it's tempting to just fall into the same "stun and smash with fist while tanking hits" routine over and over again and then you accidentally suck all the fun out of the game for yourself. Or at least that's how it was with me. I guess what I'm saying is: I think to get the most fun out of the game you should use the scoring to guide the way your playing. It's okay to get bad scores (and you almost definitely will as you learn the mechanics / enemy movesets), but rather than just ignoring them and trying to sneak your way through the campaign by brute force try to adapt and see if you can get through the game *and* get some high scores. Or not whatever it's your game!!!

So Operation 7: (7A anyway) i appreciate what they are going for, but between the boring environment and finicky platforming it is sort of the nadir of the experience for me Game still good though.

I have checked a variety of menus and can see no way to change the difficulty, which seems kinda silly. Oh for... Its the touch pad when you're selecting an operation. Well. I'm dumb.

Is that team unite morph skill one of the important ones to buy? It looks like it can really up damage potential. Wish I had unlimited cash everything looks good to buy.

It is one of best ways to up damage and combo. So definitely. As for cash, don't forget to trade in your veggies for credit cards to get the more expensive items if possible.

And yeah finally busted out the credit card, used it on ukemi which has been great when I remember to actually use it. I’m going for that charge block next so I can just hold down attack to charge my morph! At least that’s what I think it does.

Unite charge lets you hold down attack and pop up a bigger morph for one batter per level. It can be pretty useful for sure. Keep checking the blocks, though, more get added. Hero time in particular is super useful, it's Witch Time from Bayonetta. Hero Sense is the same thing but it automatically activates for 3 batteries; not AS useful because of that but that did pull my fat out of the fire for one particularly chaotic mid game boss fight.

I completed the game last night. I see that there are some reviews that are harsh on the game, and to be completely honest it is not hard to see why. It can be rough at times, sometimes prohibitively so. But it is always interesting and I am drat glad I eventually got around to playing it. Now to see how far I get on Hard mode. The REAL Wonderful 101 starts now. Also what are those platinum coins used for?

I've been having fun playing this, moreso than when I played it on Wii U but I'm finding the Switch port disappointing, I guess I was expecting a solid 60fps and I've had the game crash twice already before I've even beaten it =/

I can confirm that unfortunately performance tanked unbelievably for me in docked mode while I fought Laambo. I can only imagine how bad Vorkken gets.

Yikes I’m glad I decided to just play the free Steam key they sent out. It’s been enjoyable so far but I hope they address these issues on the Switch. Otherwise I’ll probably sell the physical when it arrives.

Do you think the person who designed the turtle enemies actively hates the player and also fun? Because they are without a doubt the worst designed enemy in the game and beating them doesn’t even feel rewarding it’s just a terrible slog.

They are only vulnerable to hammer until you break their shell. Since they always seem to come in pairs of two, you’ll be whittling away the health on one and the other will suddenly launch its head at you or make fire shoot from the ground underneath you and unless you are paying attention to every little thing going on all at once you are likely not to notice until you get hit. I understand this is pretty much the peak Platinum Games experience, though.

You can also bait the turtles to stomp you and a Unite Guts will make them start to wobble, then you can mash away with something like Hand or Sword to make them fully topple over and proceed to gently caress them up. Doesn't stop the second turtle from being a dickhead during the process though

Doesn't stop the second turtle from being a dickhead during the process though I could only block the rear leg stomp and not when they stomp with their front legs, idk if that’s how it’s supposed to be but I was having trouble getting them to do the rear leg stomp.

I'm fairly sure the two foot front stomp doesn't do anything or even has a hurtbox. Only single foot stomps do damage/can be blocked. Just stay to a corner and hug a leg and they're bound to stomp. I'm pretty sure you know this, but larger morphs destroy armor faster. One good tactic I've seen dealing with the second turtle, when he's doing fire stomps, is to have hand active. It negates the attack, and this is great when you have turtle #1 on it's side because if the two are far enough away turtle #2 will likely go for a fire attack and just set your hand on fire. It's kinda useless while they have armor, but whip can stun them unarmored. I don't know why they made that choice

Yeah I realized in one of the secret missions that you can stun them with whip once their armor is gone. Also I remember unite hand made you immune to fire at some point and that’s made the game a lot more manageable.
