This topic is for the purpose of discussing #2760: computerbird's GBA Megaman Zero2 in 50:54.88

Yay for computerbird's return! Requesting an encode ( ATM, I can only use my iPhone)

In a few minutes, Im going to do live commentary blindly watching this run. Make sure you listen in to hear my opinions on this movie! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/sonikkustar This is a long one, So I thought I could have a few people watch this with me. :)

Fucking Yes Vote. Just a question, when you are re-fighting the bosses, what happens if you glitch through the floor without fighting the bosses? In Z1, if you skip bosses you are stuck, does the same happens in this case? Unrelated Note: Are you still TASing ZX? I got interested but i first want to know if you quitted on that.

Yes voted... I now have a headache from the stream. My headphones give out headaches easily.

Watched this in stream. I enjoyed the run, yes vote.

Yes, you'll be also stuck in Z2 just as in Z1.

Unrelated Note: Are you still TASing ZX? I got interested but i first want to know if you quitted on that.

I'll continue the ZX work, and just see your post about ZX, it gives me some ideals in the route choose, but i'm really need a save file which could use all of the models to do some compare at first @@ BTW, i enjoyed your MMZ3 100% run, keep it working~

Zero has no need for a buster. I love it. Yes vote.

Toothache, thanks for encoding. I loved it, had no problems at all, and it seemed optimized. It's just classic MMZ action we all love in a TAS! Voted yes.

Congrats on finally finishing this, computerbird! It looks great. It's a shame the chain rod glitch only works on the (J) version (since I actually like following the plots of MMZ games), but nevertheless this was a fast-paced run.

Thanks for the encode, Toothache! Gameplay looked good! The switch to using the Chain Rod more was welcome, and I like how you used the Shield Boomerang to efficiently take out reactors. Easy yes vote. I generally fast-forward through the plot segments in the MMZ games. They do have halfway-decent plots, but I've read them all already and they move so glacially in the cutscenes, especially compared to how efficient Zero is in the gameplay.

Here is an HQ encode: http://www.archive.org/download/ComputerbirdsGbaRockmanZero2In5054.88/rockmanzero2-tas-computerbird.mp4 http://www.archive.org/download/ComputerbirdsGbaRockmanZero2In5054.88/rockmanzero2-tas-computerbird.mkv HQ Stream: http://aktan.site90.com/?vid=ComputerbirdsGbaRockmanZero2In5054.88/rockmanzero2-tas-computerbird_512kb Edit: Added HQ Stream.

Definitely a yes vote. Lots of tight movement and shortcuts, and I'm glad you discovered such a cool chainrod glitch, computerbird. The only problem with this TAS is the long cutscenes, but those can't be helped. Skipping all of the main rooms in the Guardian stages was a big plus. Especially since Fefnir's is complete torture (aiming those bombs, ugh) Is there a reason you didn't chainrod glitch right before the boss room in the first Fefnir stage? Is it slower than just climbing normally? mklip2001: lol, you would have a hard time reading through the text even if Computerbird used the (U) version. The text goes by way too fast to be read without frame advance.

Is there a reason you didn't chainrod glitch right before the boss room in the first Fefnir stage? Is it slower than just climbing normally?

It is accurately slower than climbing normally, it will cost too much frames to climbing to that area.

Woo~ Enjoy~ A yes vote from me .
