Why not do something original for a change

>>379489927

>>379489849
Never mind, watched one of the videos in the link. That actually looks amazing, still want Mystic Cave though, and Lava Reef.

I knew this would happen yet I'm still slightly disappointed. Oh well, that first video at least shows a lot of new elements so maybe it'll be worthwhile. I still have faith in Mania. Now just be sure to include Hydrocity Zone, for fuck's sake.

>>379489741
How many zones will there be in the final game?

They even have that electric eel enemy from Angel Island in act 2.

>>379490468
Yeah really would have preferred Mystic Cave or Oil Ocean. I never really liked Chemical Plant in the first place.

Hydrocity is my all time favourite zone but I just know it's gonna be fucking Ice Cap instead.

>>379490756
HIDROCITY

>>379490883
Ice Cap isn't even that good. Why the hell do people like it so much?

>>379490756
Hydrocity is the only correct answer

>>379489741
>chemical plant
>again
I knew this game was going to be shit

>that act 2 remix
I'm coming so hard and it won't stop, someone send an ambulance.

>>379491115
Music remixes. Snowboard.

But yeah, not a great level. Neither are Marble Garden or Carnival Night, though.

>>379489741
The sprite of sonic with his arms back while running looks so awful

>>379490756
Since we already have Chemical plant, I'd like me some Icecap

>>379489741
Chemical Plant Zone in Sonic 2 is a very dull stage.

>>379491362
At least the act 2 version in Mania looks fantastic.

>>379491317
Marble Garden was fun just for how fast you could go super due to the insane amount of rings in the beginning, but then you are stuck with that godawful super music for the rest of the stage instead of the actual good stage music.

>>379489849
I agree, Chemical Plant is the obvious pick, but I didn't want them to make that pick.

>>379490681
>you still haven't seen manias special stage

daily reminder that the special stage will NOT be the usual 3d LSD trip, and the actual special stage will be a old sonic level which didn't make it into the game.

>>379490756
Probably Carnival Night Zone for the barrel meme.
Plus, i'd be interested in hearing an official remix of its theme.

>>379491548
thank god

I hate pretty much every Sonic special stage

Watch the videos you fucking faggot its an entirely new level with amazing music FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU. This is NOTHING like the original Chemical Plant Zone

>>379491548
Your theory that you keep spamming is retarded. Since remixed classic stages are a little more than half of the actual normal game, if that was the Special Stages as well then it wouldn't be much of a Special Stage now would it. I'm betting it's gonna be a brand new Saturn esque 3D stage.

And with actual good physics and level design. Not to mention that this is 32-bit.

Gotta be honest, incredibly dissatisfied with all the choices for old levels.

>>379491497
Marble Garden is okay, a little tedious, but it will forever be shit because of the death glitches involving the boss scene transition and the insta-death spike smashers.

>>379491741
I think the special stages will turn into Sonic Adventure 3

I played Sonic 3 recently and disliked it.

What do?

>>379489927

Sonicfags don't want anything original, every time SEGA tries something new, it's met with people screaming how it's not muh 2D goodness and they shit all over it.

They'd rather buy Sonic 2 again than go back and play Sonic 2.

>>379491887
Mania threads aren't complete without the bubble shield webm.

>>379489849
>implying anyone with a brain played Generations

I feel like this is some kind of sega mandate. We'll never be allowed to see remakes/reimaginings of any sonic 1/2 levels besides green hill and chemical plant.

>>379491887
that is naughty, that is fucking naughty

This game needs a snow level, if it doesn't have a snow level, they're silly

>>379491946
Sonic 3 wasn't good, so don't worry.

>>379491898
I'm not with Stardust, but I wanted Lava Reef over Flying Battery and Mystic Cave over Chemical Plant.

>>379491898
I mean yeah its certainly similar level choice. But even if its not Green Hill Zone its gonna be Leaf Mountain Zone as the first area so might as well just call it Green Hill.

Chemical Plant seems to have some new mechanics with the bouncy stuff and the wall clinging so I feel that its at least not gonna be the same stuff as before.

and besides you get a Chemical Plant music remix that's fantastic

That being said it is weird how we haven't seen that much of the actual new levels.

Sonic Mania final trailer this E3? Where they finally show off colour animations and new levels? cumshot trailer which makes us while watching it, spray our seed and preorder by the thousands? please? yes? no?

I don't know if we'll get a new trailer so soon after the pre-order one.

>>379492376
>final trailer this E3?
You're forgetting the launch day trailer.

You know what I want? I want a remix stage of City Escape. Or Rooftop Run. Any 3D Sonic stage being brought into the 2D world. Just to see how it's done.

>>379492501
Shadow the Hedgehog but in 2D

Chao Garden

but in Mania

I fucking dare you Whitehead, show me you have a pair, DO IT.

>>379492501
>>379492567
2Dfied 3D sonic levels, now that's something that's never been done before. Sounds extremely difficult to execute, though.

>Truck scene in city escape in 2d

I didn't know I wanted this until now

>>379492671
>what's Generations???

>>379492636
Chao Gardens are NOT important.

>>379491946
As long as you liked the music, don't panic. S3 is shorter than the others, and has some Acts that are just not legit.

YOU'RE NOT IMPORTANT

>>379492836
I don't recall generations having 2D versions of levels from 3D era sonic.

If this game doesn't have Starlight zone in it from Sonic 1, truly, there is no hope left in man.

Do you guys think Knuckles Chaotix will get a level?

>>379490883
>I never really liked Chemical Plant in the first place.
Why? Chemical Plant was amazing.

>>379490756
Hydrocity please

>>379493264
Beyond acknowledging it exists, I doubt Chaotix will get anything again. It's such a flawed game that it doesn't surprise me.

>>379493251
>Tee Lopes has already done it
Fair enough then.
Is he the Sonic to Megaman's Virt

>>379493264
No, already confirmed that only 1, 2, 3, &K and CD will get at least one stage in Mania. The most you're getting is the Combi-Ring monitors.

>>379493156

there's also the pipe you ride in that functions similarly to the ones from metallic madness

Nice.

>>379489741
Was about to get annoyed but then I remember the price tag. At least they have the decency to not price it through the roof peddling the same fucking levels we've played for god knows how many years. Still, looking forward to the new original levels and whatever they pick from Sonic 3. Why that game didn't get a level in the console release of generations was pretty fucking gay.

No one is talking about Nintenbros here, get the fuck out

So, Oil Ocean and Mystic Cave are deconfirmed unless they're doing two zones epr game, and Hydrocity is also significantly less likely now due to also being a water zone.

Yeah, got to say I'm pretty disappointed in this one. At lleast Act 2 looks and sounds cool, but why couldn't they have shown some love to Mystic Cave or Oil Ocean instead? Even if they have two zones per game, at this rate it'd probably just be fucking Casino Night Zone anyway.

The giant hidden ring is the special stage. That's how it was in Sonic 3.

>>379498791
It looks like they're going with the more Sonic CD style exploratory layout

Assuming level design is good, you can usually just keep heading right (or in the obvious direction some gadget wants to fling you) to get to the end, but going off in different directions is better for finding special stages and interactive stuff

Yeah, but Super Tails/Knuckles haven't been playable since S3&K (Heroes attaching them to Super Sonic's cock doesn't count).

And now that Special Stages are back AND Tails and Knuckles are fully fledged characters, we might be able to play as their Super Forms again.

Or they'll probably just do what Snic Advance did.

Shit now I remember, why do they always forget the Sonic Advance series exists? It had some pretty cool levels.

>>379500334
Ohoho you are sorely mistaken, years of memes, a really bad sonic game, and certain invading autists caused the Sonic fanbase to splinter into Classicfags, Adventurefags, Boostfags, Deviantartfags, and people who don't have their heads up their asses and can find ways to enjoy the entire franchise.

>>379500583
>Colors/06 hybrid disaster
Fucking how, explain to me how you think Forces is going to be another 06 without meming hardcore.

Why do people think this game will only have 8 zones? You do know we're in 2017 and this game could possibly have 30+

there are no more hardware limitations to get past, we won't need to stick a extra knuckles cartridge in to make sonic 3 turn into sonic and knux

guarantee they're holding back and this game has something stupid amount of levels.

>>379500665
I can't, memes are absolutely necessary to argue in 4Chan

>>379500831
30 is way too unrealistic. I'm gonna guess somewhere around 15-20.

I'm honestly excited for both, though Mania more.

Boost gets shat on a lot, but I like it, I just wish it didn't rely on 2D as much as it does. Forces looks like the kind of stupid I can get behind too in terms of tone and OC.

Mania itself though will probably be thoroughly loved and remembered for years. Some people I just don't think understand how big of a deal Mania really is.

>>379500665
Well, the general tone of 06 is there. The actual director of 06 is there. The godawful what'sitcalledpop from Colors is there. Gameplay has regressed to Colors formula. Level design seems to have regressed as well, with classic levels looking like fucking Lost World. Art design took a serious blow, making the gorgeous Hedgehog Engine look like an early, not particularly good AA game from 7th gen. I don't know what's up with Sonic Team, but they were onto something really solid with how Generations refined the boost formula, but now it's like they're trying to fuck up on purpose.

On one hand, this is something Generations already did and is kind of a boring choice compared to other S2 zones like Mystic Cave.

But on the other hand,

>>379501118
why is 30 unrealistic? I'm a little lost on this train of thought, we live in a age where people are making entire fucking worlds in video games, but a 2d sonic platformer can't have 30 zones in 2017?

>>379489849
Considering Mania's overall length is supposed to be longer than Generations, I expect that we'll be seeing more than just one level per mega drive game.

>>379501204
None of that leads to it being a broken glitchy mess that 06 was. Also the only full stage we've seen is the intro stage for Classic. Reserve judgement for when you can actually see full segments of all the gameplay aspects instead of hoping for a TORtanic.

>I would say they might have dialed stuff back for the Switch.
Yeah, but with how much PS4 and Xbone struggle with 60fps games I don't even know anymore. My problem is the level design screams Colors in 3D and Lost World in 2D, I don't think it's a "it's just the first levels" case.

>instead of hoping for a TORtanic.
Nigger, I just told you how much I valued Generations. I want it to be good.

>>379501838
calm d-- what? we're just discussing anon

I think that is completely plausible, I think the whitehead team do have it in them to make 60 unique acts with all the sonic settings, and new settings they invent.

ofc that doesn't mean there WILL be 30 levels, but I can assure you it's going to be far far more then this 8 zone game people keep saying it will be, would you really have the balls to release a sonic 2d game in 2017 with less then 10 levels..?

>>379501926
You're still trying to equate Forces to 06 when it can't be done when Forces isn't an unfinished broken mess.

There's a thing called a game getting stale

why would it get stale? Its 2 zones, a new boss, and a entirely new level setting each time with new music/and the possibility of a remade old sonic level you love, how on earth would that get stale? I can understand in ONE sitting, but you're telling me you wouldn't want to keep coming back to a giant 2d sonic game?

>he doesn't know about Blast Processing

>>379501118
Even 20 is probably pushing it. I'd expect 16 full length zones tops.

>>379502096
It's already confirmed to be longer than Generations so I really don't think anyone has anything to worry about.

Plus, while the Mania team is very obviously talented, there is such a thing as fatigue. This isn't a Mario game where you can have gazillions of levels because they all share assets, every level has to have their own design, assets and songs. The game is only 20 bucks. Don't get your hopes up.

>>379502110
It may not be broken as 06, but it sure stinks like it. I hope you're not one of those people who think 06's only problem was being released in a broken state.

>Ice Cap
I wish. Not gonna happen with the music rights n shit

>>379502283
Unfortunately it still cannot do this many colors or background objects at once without the processor crying in pain.

>>379502492
music rights, by that logic, isn't all of sonic 3 off limit?

>>379490756
Carnival Night, Ice Cap, or Launch Base Zone

>>379502575
No because only some of the OST is in legal limbo.

why even live

>>379502343
generations had 15 levels, I'm calling just over 20ish. or exactly 20

a buck each for a sonic level, that seems fair

>>379502427
>I hope you're not one of those people who think 06's only problem was being released in a broken state.
A lack of focus, shit story, and meandering level designs were an issue where it put the impetus on way too many playable characters.

Forces could have some of these issues, but I doubt it'll have the issues that make 06 wholly what it is. Aside from maybe level design and the story being up its own ass. But those aren't guarantees yet either.

>>379502575
I don't believe every song in Sonic 3 was Michael Jackson. Carnival Night, Ice Cap, and Launch Base were definitely his, but not so sure about Angel Island, Hydrocity, and Marble Garden.

>>379502706
.....why? who said Hydrocity is off the table?

>>379502791
Okay, cool. I've had a few Adventurefags tell me 06's content wasn't that bad.
