  • Mega Man Battle Network is a mechanically complex Action RPG for the GameBoy Advance, famous for its combat system and the variety in attacks you can perform, through the wide selection of battle chips at your disposal. However, just how hard can the game be, if we use one of the most unwieldly types of chips in the game? Watch and see, as we try and blast through the game using only bomb chips!

      I get where you're coming from, so I went ahead and extensively tested walking through the TimeBomb/DiceBomb blast like it were Gaia's hammer strike or LifeVirus's meteors.
      After attempting it upwards to around 50 times, I've come to the conclusion that it's *way* too frame-perfect to rely on consistently, especially in a fight where I'm seeing several of those in a full run of the boss.

    When I saw this video's title, I was thinking about the "Treebomb+Prism" glitch that can delete any enemy within seconds, but then I remembered that was a BN2 glitch. This first game's notable glitch lets you skip the final boss and warp to the ending cutscene, but unlike the Treebomb Prism glitch, it's entirely patched out of the Legacy Collection.

    Flappy3s were always super annoying in MMBN1. I actually did a somewhat similar thing to this challenge, though not solely bomb chips-I did run 10 copies of big bomb since it was relatively easy to get enough for a full C code of them to stack with other C good C code chips
    for other challenges-it could be need to see challenges in MMBN1 or other MMBN games using families of chips, like the various sword chips only or only the tower chips or chips similar to those (allowing for healing chips though, to help reduce the tedium of the run and give a little bit of sanity back)

    Very cool challenge, reminds me a bit of Create Corporation' videos which i'm sure served as inspiration here. Unfortunatelly i'm not sure this challenge is possible in any other game of the series because of the higher restriction on repeated chips in your folder. Still I would love to see more content from BN because as a very old fan of the series i am VERY thirty.
    Also even if there were enough bomb chips to make the challenge doable in BN2, i'm pretty sure it's impossible in that game because there are mandatory battles against the shadow virus, which can only be damaged by sword chips.
    Another ideia is to maybe try all the v3 bosses and bass with the same rules. After your comment about numbermanV3 I got curious to see how that would shape out.

  • @izzadk86
    @izzadk86 Рік тому

    What I always had in mind is a "cool guy" version of this. In BN4 There's a chip call counter, it can attack anywhere on the field the only downside is that it will only attack if you activate it during the timing that you can counter & stun the enemies. So in short if you able to do this, except for the 1st "counter" you'll be playing at full synchro and dealing double damage all game long.
    But given that it is BN4 where you have to play NG+ to get counter 2/3, you can't even build the folder on the 1st playthrough unless you trade those chips

    Given what I have seen of the rushed abominations that both versions of _BN4_ are due to watching RoahmMythril suffer through them, the only ways I can explain those supposedly true sales numbers are combining both versions' sales *and* being before Internet reviews were around to really ravage it. That and/or people were just *that* desperate for anything _BN3_ even if what they got was two different monkey's paws, which is shades of _X6_ (and that _Mighty No. 9_ scam) really.
    Anyway, good job with actually beating the early game without outright cheating. Rather funny that innocent, normally harmless Numberman.Exe is at least the second hardest boss in the game using this restriction and yet Bombman.Exe isn't even noteworthy.

    Can you beat MMBN Battlechip Challenge “normally”.
    You can only use neutral element chips, and Normal Navis. You can use whatever character to start, but you need to rush getting a normal Navi chip and once you get one, they are the only ones you can use.

    Someone might have said this before in the comments (but I can't find it) but when i was playing mmbn, I started to mess around with the chip machines (Mr. Hisby shop) and I got a chip called "Btr Bomb" it's like"Btr sword" except you use mini bombs and its somewhat "good" but I have a hard time with it, I was thinking maybe you could try to get it (But probably not until after beating NumberMan and StoneMan) It might help in future challenges.
    Very sorry, late comment, I was thinking it might be a good idea?
    Btw, the chances of getting it are kinda hard, I got first try with the red machine that you can use 3 chips to trade for 1.

      @StupidStudiosN  8 місяців тому +1

      I mention it at around 2 minutes into the video, along with the other bomb-related chips.
      Because the properties are very different than the main 3 (Changing the buster itself into a minibomb launcher, rather than just directly tossing a bomb), I avoided using it for the challenge.

      Like kemix mentioned, you have to beat FireMan's scenario before being able to access Dex's PC, as the door to his house is locked before that point.
      As for the Beta Bomb PA, I probably *could* have used that post-finishing the folder, but I honestly forgot about it. Ultimately though, it probably wouldn't have had a major impact on the challenge, past maybe making LifeVirus a bit easier to knock out.
