About some setting in this game

All the boss has his level,when fight to him,the higher boss’ level,the longer boss’ health.Boss’ level depend on character’s rank and how many hours passed.When you play in each stage,no matter death or not,if you don’t continue or finish a stage,time will pass an hour.After finishing a stage,your character will get a rank.Only 8 boss have their additional chips,and must be 8 level or above,if you defeat such a boss,you can get no only life up or energy up item,but also additional chip.

About this run

This run plays in 59:10,choosing X as all the game process character.X is different from Zero,he is able to destroy more the enemy which obstruct him,but boss battle always spends longer time.
After intro stage,I also open the way access virus stage,fire cannon and let it succeed.
Virus stage has a lot of comment on,I may not describe too much.In virus stage 3(Boss is Zero),there is the most useful armor,called ultimate armor,help a lot in most of boss fight.I also die once to waste an hour,let 8 boss upgrade.This stage is the fastest to die.After defeating Zero,X’s rank is GA,got the ultimate armor from Dr. Light.
Now,all 8 boss are 9 level,I can go to 8 boss’ stage and get the chip items.I may select two kinds of additional chips,but only one kind can be created after two hours.Also I can obtain some devices of Enigma or Shuttle.But I don’t need them anymore.

Mattrex’s Stage

I come here at first,in order to get the Mattrex’s special weapon,Ground Fire.It is helpful on some enemy which weak point on ground.
  • Item:life up,arm parts G(clear)

Grizzly Slash’s Stage

Using Ground Fire to destroy trucks,and proceed with giga attack,take no delay hardly.Life up is on the spike,I have to die once.
  • Item:life up,leg parts F,E tank(clear)

Dynamo

No comment on him, just a bored guy.Also waste a hour.
  • No item obtain.
  • Additional chip complete:buster plus(Plus X’s buster attack,but is invalid for special weapon,it is useless to equip).

The Skiver’s Stage

There are some bombs,destroy them and the way will open.The rest area likes a lift,just stay on it.I do some action for fun.A armor part in somewhere,but I can’t touch it now,will come back later.
  • Item:life up,W tank
  • Additional chip complete:Hyper Dash(The most useful chip, speed up while dashing).
I equip with Hyper Dash.

Duff McWhalen’s Stage

Mid boss come at first,but I can’t destroy it right now.Proceed in the sea,just wait for its weak point appear.For to get the armor part,Duff McWhalen’s weapon is necessary.This setting is very annoying,I must come here again.
  • No item obtain.

Squid Adler’s Stage

X ride a Ride Chaser coming here,it seems very cool.He also puck up all the energy items along the way.These energy items can destroy a door,after the door open,X can get an armor part.After that,there are some shutters,but they couldn’t open unless attack the lock system until it compress completely.Will come here later to get life up.
  • Item:head parts F
  • Additional chip complete:Jumper(jump higher,is useful in some area)
I equip with Jumper.

Axle The Red’s Stage

Use Wing Spiral rise slowly beside spike,get the armor part above.Life up is behind some black boxes,but I can’t destroy them now,so will come again.
  • Item:leg parts G
  • Additional chip complete:W-energy Saver(save special weapon energy)

Dynamo

Defeat him and he will not come again.His weak point is Wing Spiral.
  • Additional chip complete:Quick Charge(charge faster)

Izzy Glow’s Stage

I take a bit damage to get EX tank,use a new trick.Take damage by pressing,be able to get through something such as spike board in this stage.Mid boss is 3 emitter,only the black one could be destroyed,I manipulate the black one under the others,let them rise up faster.
  • Item:life up,EX tank,arm parts F(clear)
  • Additional chip complete:Z-Saber Plus(plus Z’s attack)

Dark Dizzy's Stage

In order to get over a big hole,Wing Spiral is used a lot,and get E tank easily.Take press damage can get through some boxes,get life up with short delay.
  • Item:E tank,life up,head parts G(clear)
All 8 boss are defeated,I can quit at any time.These stage I must come again.
  • Duff McWhalen’s Stage again,get life up and body parts F.Falcon Armor is completed.
  • Additional chip complete:Burst Shot(Shot Charging attack needn’t Charge)
  • The Skiver’s Stage: Dress Falcon Armor.Get body parts G.Gaea Armor is completed.
Additional chip complete:Anti-Virus Guard(Reduce demage from virus)
  • Axle The Red’s Stage:Dress Gaea Armor,destroy black boxes,get life up.
  • Squid Adler’s Stage:Dress Gaea Armor,get life up.
All items are collected!

Final Stage

Boss Rush is in this stage.I have all the special weapon,but I wish not use weakness weapon on each boss,it take too much invincible time.Giga attack is also most useful in this part.Though I have a lot of health,but needn’t take damage at most time.
That’s all.

Thanks

  • Mothrayas’ "X,only" run.
  • Angerfist&Atma’s "All stage" run.
  • Zeroblaze777’s "X,100%" video on Youtube.
  • And you who read this text.
Hope you would like it XD.

Nach: This was a very nice run. As 100% is hard to define in this game as certain items are mutually exclusive, basing 100% on a certain characters makes sense. I approve of this branch, and accept this run as a first run for this branch.
FractalFusion: Placing on delayed because of this submission.

Nach: Rejecting, as this run is obsoleted by #3473: Bernka's PSX Mega Man X5 "max item collection" in 54:33.68. Please see my judgement there for more details.

Oh, great. Now that I am on the beach, I can't encode this!! But when I came back (2 weeks) I will encode in FULL HD for sure. I never said that. My computer died and I will get it back in Wednesday.

really nice run you have there, when i saw you rush to the ultimate armor i was fearing that the run would become "ultimate dash thru the game" but you managed to show all other weapons.... just a question, do the "help" guys respawn everytime you go back in a level or are they collectible like in MMX 6 ?

According to this Youtube video, the Skiver's armor part should be obtainable the first time around. Is Ultimate X Just not quite equipped for that?
A hundred years from now, they will gaze upon my work and marvel at my skills but never know my name. And that will be good enough for me.

That can only be done with Zero. And the challenge is "X Only".

But why can it only be done with Zero? What's stopping Ultimate X from taking a hit from Sigma and boosting over?

If you let the Virus touch many times to X, you start to lose damage without invincibility barrier. While with Zero, give invincibility for like 3 seconds, enough to do the trick.

I'm voting no because I don't agree with only using one character in a run like this when both characters have an advantage in certain areas. Variety is a good thing. If feasible, it would be really good to use both characters for stages you have to backtrack to, especially McWhalen. Bosses are just quicker with Zero, and it really shows in early stages like Virus1 where you don't have any tools with either character to speed the stage up yet, or the Dynamo fights. The jump to get Skiver's capsule as Zero might not require Jumper. If it doesn't, you can do everything in Skiver in one go. And regardless, it makes Falcon Armor useless and lets you do Squid Adler in one trip too, you'd just have to fight him with Gaea Armor. Also, Black Zero would make this more of a 100% run as that's the only thing that wasn't obtained in this run that requires sacrificing something else. You would just have to incorporate getting Black Zero into the suicide visit to Virus 3. Or do it the other way around and fight X with Zero instead.

Wow what a pleasant surprise this was! Very very nice work Bernka. I am proud of you. Easy yes vote my man! Now, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease do a 100% run as Zero and finish the circle. Pleeeeeeeeeease :) Edit: I disagree with Satoryu. Even if it could have been faster to use Zero in some places, his goal was very clear and consistent: Mega Man X5 as X.

In order to upgrade X's rank,all the Virus Stages must be done by X,or you should die at least twice in Virus Stage 3.Most of 8 boss stages like Mattrex,Axle The Red,Izzy Glow,Dark Dizzy,are faster done with X.Zero has a few show in this project(include final stage,but just the same done as "All Stage" run).

The Gaea Armor, despite being slow, is actually a monster at bosses, because the charged shot results in almost no invulnerability time.

I just confirmed that Zero does not need Jumper to acquire Skiver's capsule. Just Hyper Dash. The actual jump to it is no problem, but respawning the viruses was annoying on console. So in a 100% run using both characters, you can cut out the second visit to Skiver, which also eliminates the need for Falcon Armor completely and lets you do Squid Adler only one time with Gaea Armor. I don't know if you'd be able to get the Heart Tank in the same way, though. As for rank, you could do one virus stage as Zero, get him up to GA, and do the other two as X, getting him up to SA. You'd then do Mattrex lv.9 as Zero, then Grizzly lv.8 as Ultimate. Unless Zero really loses that much time to X in Mattrex, which I kinda doubt.

How does the Wing Spiral trick work?

Let X jumps beside spike (just not die),then press T button without left or right.A small cyclone will appear and not rise up.When it disappear,press T again.X could rise very short height with each Wing Spiral. Edit:Thanks to your idea,my new 100% run had started,I will not show WIPs before I finish it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyjxRc6eROQ&feature=g-vrec&context=G2dab366RVAAAAAAAABg was this trick considered when doing the run?it may be useless because it has so many requirements...
I want all good TAS inside TASvideos, it's my motto. TAS i'm interested: Megaman series, specially the RPGs! Where is the mmbn1 all chips TAS we deserve? Where is the Command Mission TAS? i'm slowly moving away from TASing fighting games for speed, maybe it's time to start finding some entertainment value in TASing.

Ferret Warlord linked to a similar video above. In any case, it seems X cannot get that armor part without Falcon Armor, as the Sigma viruses don't grant invincibility for X; they only drain his health rapidly once he has been infected with enough virii. EDIT: If Bernka's new 100% WIP uses both X and Zero, we may end up seeing this trick used after all.
