Project X Gameplay
« on: July 05, 2011, 06:50:14 PM »


Z and I have been going through the game, makeing some improvements.

* We have gone through the bug lists you guys have submitted and fixed up everything that we agreed was broken. Everyone did a great job giving us material here. It's appreciated.

* The screenpack and all characters have been converted to Mugen 1.0. Everything looks a lot sharper, especially the intro, ending, title screen and versus screen.

* In our analysis we had broken down the roster into tiers, based on combo abilty, abilities, special and hyper moves. We calculated velocities, damage, guard damamge, powergive, power get and ran some equations, modified by scored we agave to special abilities such as speed, long range instant beams, command throws, and more. The tiers came out as such.

Top Tier
Rogue (current version)
Gambit
Cable (current version)
Strong Guy
Deadpool
Juggernaut
Wolverine
Namor
Iceman
Bishop
Sabretooth
Storm
Cyclops
Psylocke
Omega Red
Beast
Colossus
Magneto
Emma
Quicksilver
Mystique
Nightcrawler
Birdy
Bottom Tier

So this was a good starting ground to see who needed what kinds of action towards balancing. From here we adjusted damages, special abilities, decreased hyper attack damages, reset powergives, and end the end we ended up increases our 4 character classes into eight character classes:

Agile
Teleport
Zone (Beams)
Bruiser
Air
Scrapper
Guns
Psychic

Each of these classes determined what type of move canceling each character was assigned, who had recovery rolls, what type of combos (either Magic series, LMH or in Juggernaut's case, 2 hit combos), and all the other stuff mentioned above.

* With some of the more difficult characters we found issues with corner traps. In part his was corrected through hitdef velocitied but we also added guard push to all of the characters. Now there are options when you're turtling in the corner with no way out.

* We have implimented the new Mugen 1.0 AI into all of the characters so that as you chose a difficulty level the game will adjust to match that level. The default setting is Level 5 out of 8. For those who are less of a fighting game fan and just want to play through the story the easier modes are now accessable but for those who want an all out tight mugen match they can bump up the difficulty. Even the bonus stages and end boss have been adjusted to allow for AI Levels.

* We also have been doing some grahic updates as well, such as the HUD on the training stage and background graphics.

* We also have taken a lot of our new knowldge and incorporated it into a Game Manual, so that you'll have complete move lists and know where you character falls even before the match beings.

So... progress continues. Thanks for all of the support you guys have given us on this project and we promise to continue to not disapoint.

Wow. The select screen looks more like Killer Instinct style.

Pretty nice to hear that you're still working on this; it was pretty nice to begin with, but did have some problems. Hopefully, it'll get even better now. :thumbsup:

Just one little tid-bit though; before playing XSC, I wasn't much of an X-Men fan. Since then though, I've read a lot more of it, and have indeed become a fan. So, I've been booting the game up again recently, and have been playing it again. And eventually, I played as Storm. Sorry, but she just doesn't feel like 'Storm'. Sure, she looks the part, and has the moves, but most her lines don't speak to her character; you pretty much just used the voice-clips from the CAPCOM games. (Which includes saying out her move names, which she does not do.) Now, my advice, (though you don't have to do it if you don't want to,) is to keep Storm's look and gameplay intact, (aside from fixing bugs and balance issues,) but revise her voicetrack. Make it so that she not only looks like Storm, but feels like Storm as well, in terms of her personality. Anyway, that's my two cents.

There is a lot of alternatate options out there for Storm's voice track so I think we could visit this.

Good to know. You might want to keep the "I'm as strong as a hurricane!" line though. That one was good.

Acey, I was playing against iceman on training and I've noticed something:

When you knock him near a wall, he will bounce into the wall (nice feature, btw). But you can make a no blockable combo in every rebound he makes if you hit him with a fierce punch which has a big X velocity.

P2 can't guard it and you will just stop when the juggle runs out.

Who was player 1 in this case?

Edit: Anyone apparently, good catch O Ilu.
