New songs are so disappointing. They sound like unused Sega CD stuff and the reason they are unused is because they are bad. Should have focused on making actual original stuff instead of trying to copy another games music.

Hey, I like it, Judging by the comment, Tee Lopes was inspired by Jet Set Radio.

Why was this game delayed?

>>384382116
I know, right, it's such a shame they're trying to make it sound like 16-bot Sonic msuic instead of doing their own original things.

>>384382116
>Another games music
It sounds like CD, you retard. Did you expect them to make music using the Genesis. Also
>Shitting Studiopolis

>>384382385
So they can release it at the same time as an upcoming AAA title so it can get a lukewarm reception at best.

Should we just keep this thread up because the other one's nearing it's bump limit?

>>384386675
If only to keep that stupid first post up

Meh. I wish they used the 80s/90s New Jack Swing sound of S3K as opposed to the House music of Sonic CD

New Jack Swing is underrated

>>384382116

To not be in the game, sure.

>>384389456
It's actually made by competent devs who understand sonic instead of sega themselves shitting out another directionless sonic title to milk kids of their money.
It's the sole reason this game has gained so much traction to begin with.

>Short path only has 49 rings

They did that on purpose

>>384389741
They are. There's a vinyl release too.

The plot will be that Eggman created a space altering machine which scrambled all the levels around, so geography is null and void. The final level will be Scrambled Egg Zone. This is how they get to shove Mania Sonic into Forces.

>>384389741
I got just the thing for you:

>>384389846
>>384389981
I guess it's time to dust off my old turntable.

>>384389818
In the 1.0.3 version of the game, someone added a extra ring to the path so you could get exactly 50. So some copies of the game only let you get 49, while others give you 50.

>>384382319
That was approaching the bump limit when you made your shitpost

Honestly, we're all joking about it.

It'll fucking happen, I CAN FEEL IT. I CAN JUST, FEEL IT. lizuka is bassically the devil and will force Mania to link with Forces, via portals at the end of the game. There is NO explanation as to why Classic Sonic in Forces can Drop Dash. UNLESS, they're going just going with this Mania one can, so it's classic. so he can.

That'll really sour the game for me, not even he is that silly, surely? Just let Mania be Mania.

Technically they're choosing to go with a Saturn style as opposed to a CD one. Also gameplay & level design-wise it's like 3&K.

Why do people hate Forces so much? The modern levels in Unleashed and Generations were enjoyable and the OC creator should be fun just to see the crazy shit people make.

>>384391220
Nothing looks anywhere near as solid as the Unleashed/Generations levels. Especially Classic Sonic, who shouldn't even be there

Somebody post the Classic Sonic level. That Green Hill was almost Colors-tier bad

>>384391220
It's Sonic Colours 2006 edition with tons of shoehorned fan service

>>384390657
Why do people believe this

Sonic CD's art style is exotic and eclectic and downright ugly at times. Knuckles Chaotix did it better anyway.

The music is good but nothing is memorable, meanwhile most people know how the best songs from sonic 1, 2, and 3's go without even attempting to memorize them.

CD is for classic series hipsters. Learn the difference between *your favorite* and *the best*.

>and the OC creator should be fun just to see the crazy shit people make.
Honestly it doesn't look that good as far as chracter creators go, unless they're for some reason not showing it you can't even change proportions and everyone looks like background characters from Sonic Boom.

>>384391694
Because it's supposed to be the Saturn Sonic game that never was.

>>384390331
Should have also used the Sonic 3 sprite or made an all new 2D Sonic sprite instead of going for the CD/2 look.

The 3 sprite looks fucking dumb, he's got clown shoes and resting bitch face. 1, 2, and CD all have a similar sprite which makes 3 the odd man out, the 2 sprite is iconic and just looks better.

>>384394016
They want it to sound retro but they don't know what a fucking Genesis soundchip sounds like so they just go with synth, because it's electronic and that means retro. Sonic Team's sound team has been pretty shit comparatively for a while but Forces is really making the push for what could be the first Sonic game with a bad soundtrack.

If I had to bend a little bit, I could give you that it's better than Sonic 3 & k because proportionally, those games have a bad ratio of forgettable tracks. The best songs in sonic 3 & K crush the best songs in CD easily though

You are seriously retarded. Sonic Adventure's OST is simply good, that's it. I can't think of a single memorable track out of it apart from recycled songs and Emerald Coast. Same with Heroes, except every song is forgettable. I'll give you a point in Sonic CD sounding better though.

He's implying that S3K is not flawed because that's how sentences work.
But I'll entertain the thought of him being hypothetical with the statement. How does him being hypothetical help his argument if that's not reality? He is hypothetically saying that CD cannot be better than S3K if 3K has no flaws. Which is not the truth since 3K does have flaws. So what would be the point in using a hypothetical in an argument about what IS.

I should not try this but whatever

The guy I was arguing with thought Sonic CD's soundtrack was better than Sonic 3k's soundtrack, while simultaneously bitching when I found something wrong with Sonic 3k just to throw him a bone. "if Sonic 3k isn't flawed in anyway" was strawmanning him honestly. But then either him or someone else thought I was saying Sonic 3k isn't flawed.

Sonic 2 is a weird game

First two stages are great, second two are alright but Sonic 1 tier, Hill Top and Mystic Cave stagnate, then it fucking nosedives with Oil Ocean and Metropolis before picking up just a bit more for the last few but it's too late by that point

The other games are more consistent

>>384397560

Big the Cat is the final boss

>>384397590

>>384398767
>he thinks he's playing the phone port
I also wish that, but he's probably playing the inferior Genesis version.

>>384399015
Honestly this is part of the reason I'm not too bothered by Green Hill at this point. Shit like Emerald Hill or Splash Hill is more of the same but with new names, just be honest and give me Green Hill Zone

Or an entirely new trope. Enough green intros

>>384398594

Hill Top and Mystic Cave are pretty solid. It isn't until Oil Ocean that Sonic 2 goes from a cool game to the worst of the genesis-era games.

That pure blue ball rolling sprite is fucking terrible and the transition of it when Sonic rolls down hill looks really bad.

>>384398845
i thought mystic cave was fine

and metropolis is fine too, the problem is it overstays it's welcome because it has 3 full acts

meanwhile the Death egg is literally just a boss gauntlet and barely qualifies as a stage. (something Sonic 3&K fixed by making it a proper zone)

I'm not including Hidden Palace since I wasn't playing the port but from what I've seen that zone looked great and even the boss seemed pretty cool too.

Mystic Cave is definitely a step above the other zones after Casino Night but I still don't really like it.

>>384399456
That webm in particular is missing a lot of frames. Note how it keeps going to the solid ball and then the rolling frames randomly. In better footage (and classic Sonic games) the frame order is always solid ball -> curled up ball and repeating with rotations.

Now THIS is fucking contrarianism. It's evoking the style of Sonic CD's music, much like the rest of the original tracks, with this one in particular having direct influence from Hideki Naganuma's work, which is something the composer pointed out on Twitter after Naganuma complimented it.

If you aren't a fan of that direction and/or wish they were doing music closer to Sonic 1-3's, I can understand that, even if I disagree. Calling it outright shit though, that's just asinine.

The only 2 Sonic games with bad music weren't developed by SEGA: Dark Brotherhood & Boom (and I guess maybe the Boom spinoffs but I haven't heard their music).

Lyrics are fine, Instruments are great, Vocals are the only issue but after giving it a few listens its okay at best. If they do a retake as well as fix a bit in post production it'll become great.

>>384393198
>dude guys what if they like brought back multiple cave levels and multiple water levels haha
Dude just fucking stop. If Labyrinth or Hydrocity make it in, the other will be donating gimmicks. If Mystic Cave or Quartz Quadrant make it in, the other will be donating gimmicks. There's a reason Green Hill cannibalized Emerald Hill, Palmtree Panic, and Angel Island.

>>384401547
I never hear it enough, but does everyone hate sonic tracks with vocals like I do? A little bit of voice improves a track like HUE HUUE and LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION, but once you start having lyrics it's a garbage fire.

Yeah, and I fucked up a special stage at Lava Reef, too. Could've had it.

Are you serious, nigga? You can get all of the Super Emeralds by the end of Mushroom Hill.

>>384401812
The thunderbolts coming out can still damage you

>>384401721
ok time for leak

>>384401721
I hope thats true. Being finished a month before release is a good sign. That means there's no temptation to improve the game in the remaining weeks and everything is how they want it.

Anon don't just walk into it

>>384401591
Past Lava Reef Act 2 you can't get anymore so you only have 4 Zones to collect them but Mushroom Hill to Sandopolis are more than generous with Special Stages. Can't say much for Lava Reef though, I don't recall many stage locations there.

>2017
>No online Chao garden

>>384402410
I can count at least like 4 in both acts of Lava Reef, it's not the worst

The S3 half is tons more generous with Special Rings

I found four in Lava Reef, couldn't reach one as Sonic, fucked the other up. I'm playing Complete and moved Flying Battery to the first half, so that's out, and fuck Sandopolis. Only found one there.

>>384402410
I think I only ever found one in Flying Battery. Maybe I'm just not looking hard enough
>>384402429
>Only one ring
The usual way that boss ends. What an asshole

>>384401797
Crush 40 is fucking great so no. Even in games nobody really cares about Sonic music with lyrics kills it, like Knight of the Wind, With Me, and even some Secret Rings tracks.

>>384397786
Scrap brain zone's platforms aren't the same type that's in labyrinth/studiopolis

What I think will happen, We'll do green hill zone, then skip Sonic 1's second zone, then Scrap Brain zone is the last zone to tie it off, and it has tropes lifted from both death eggs.

>>384392727
It's memorable in a negative way. I hated all those woo and aaa voices in the CD tracks.

What are you talking about? There's special stage rings in...

..well, fuck. That went completely past me. I never even noticed that.

>>384402506
>The S3 half is tons more generous with Special Rings
Yeah this is definitely true. Thinking about it now I get the feeling S&K's stage placement was intentionally trickier because that was the only portion of the game where you could get Super Emeralds on a fresh new game.

Here we go. Hope I can keep the rings for Part 2.

>>384401940
Even if it leaks, i won't be playing it until official steam release. And leave /sthg/ until that.

Mania as a whole, or just 1's representation? If it's the former then no way, because remember that Mania was originally a modest game with only new levels, meaning it has an original final level that's not a remix.

>>384388584
No it's not. Not at all. It sounds more like 80s-90s House music like Black Box

>>384402975
Jesus what is this

Did that anon post this from the back of a mini van with hair brushed over one eye?

Get that wrist band tattoo removed too

>>384401721
Now they probably working on the Nintendo Switch port.

>>384403153
I wonder what its original 1st level was

>>384403264
That's already being handled by a different developer.
