Sega party every day!
TWO MEMES

>>386849785
this song is good
This is a dancing stream now.
>>386849898
Aaron Webber is a huge
SHITPOSTERS NEED NOT POST
Jacques should have composed for Mania desu
Which Sonic track has the same melody as this again? Was it Saturn 3D Blast's?
>>386849917
I bought the game just so I could refund it. Blunder of the century.
I DOESN'T REALLY MATTER WHAT SAY
Post guesses on what they're going to announce on this stream?

Rusty Ruins Saturn is super underrated. Comfy as fuck song.
>>386849917
I'm debating. Let me see the stream and how things really blow off.
>>386850051
DLC
>>386850051
They bring the leaker's head on stream, announcing that whoever breaks the street date will know the same fate.
>>386850083
Fumie Kumatani
Though she left SEGA at some point.
>>386850063
>Furfags
Anyone got footage of Metallic Madness?
>>386850063
This thread isn't furry bait.
>>386850094
Come to think of it, Sonic 3D Blast had plenty of good levels, I'd love to play some of them in 2D.
>>386849917
i told me mommy to refund it but she wont let me!!!
>>386850051
Aaron cries about Mark and Nintendo for 20 minutes
He then hangs himself live
>>386850156
Fucking kek. Just imagining this gave me a good kek
>>386850162
Stay in your furfag containment thread please
>>386850109
That artist seems to do it a lot.
Mark cancelled Sonic Mania
>>386850192
I replayed it a couple of days ago it's much better than people give it credit for
>>386850192
Fucking this, playing through saturn was fun for the most part
>>386850004
Oh yeah, it was Green Grove.

who care about furries?
let the scum out of this thread
Aaron Webber @RubyEclipse 1 minute ago
>Almost ready! Thanks for waiting. Probably another 10-15 minutes.
Fuck.
So what's the story? Was the game supposed to be a "Greatest HIts" like collection of old levels from the beginning? Then why was the first trailer showing off a completely new level (Studiopolis)?
>>386849785
>tune into stream
>Nonaggression, one of my favourite final boss themes starts playing
WAIT NO FUCK YOU LET IT PLAY FIRST
is this the zero guy who wins a bunch of smash 4 tournaments
>>386850162
go on
i mostly stayed away from the leaks, how fucked is mania? i only know there are apparentlyonly 4 new zones and ties to forces are confirmed
>>386850162
Say it with me, /v/.
YIFF
>>386850170
>>386850178
i'm the OP of that thread
i created it to keep the furfags out of this thread
>>386850391
It's both.
CANT STOP THE EDGE BAYBEE!!!!!
>>386850162
what did you mean by this?
>>386850428
4 new zones yes, no ties to forces though. You really gotta improve your ability to read past shitposting, these threads are starting to make the newer posters here seem very obvious.
SHADOW CONFIRMED
>Aaron finally wakes up
>Stream cuts to a live video with some fatty in a chair

>The fatfuck's last words are "don't I get one last dinner?"
>Jim Sterling's head is blown off with a double barrel shotgun
>Post YFW
HAND OVER THE MASTER EMERALD /V/!
>>386850428
>ties to forces are confirmed
This has never been confirmed. It's just some faggot shitposting about a sound effect being reused.
>>386850391
The first trailer also showed old levels, go back and watch it.
stream enjoyment has decreased 90% since they ended the music
>>386850428
NO AMY
NO FUCKING BUY
>>386850269
I really like this.
>>386850428
It just shitposting. The remixed levels look good.
>>386849785
Can you furfags stick to one fucking thread, or better yet to just go /vg/
aaron overslept because he's depressed ;(
>>386850545
But I don't have it!
>>386850428
mania looks great from what i saw. all the new zones are fun, bosses look challenging. my only issue is that some of the old level act 2s aren't that different from the originals.
So what the fuck was the final boss of Mania? The asshat stopped streaming so I went to sleep.
>>386850558
Secret zone?
>Maniafags were actually hyped for this piece of shit
Cannot make this up
>>386850657
>Omochao text isn't comic sans in the PC version
this angers me
>>386850391
It was originally going to be a small game which would be bundled with the s1 and 2 remakes but when they pitched it to sega they decided it should be A brand new game, it's mostly the same levels again like a greatest hits of the classic games but everything has been re-worked with new layouts and act 2 of the old levels are completely different.
>>386850643
Maybe we'll go to /vg/ when the /vg/ posters go to /co/
>>386850708
Apparently no.
>never realized rouge had tit jiggle physics
>>386850690
Go back to your containment thread
THIS THREAD WAS BITCHING ABOUT THE LACK OF ROUGE IN MANIA
STREAM STARTS OFF WITH A ROUGE THE BAT LEVEL
THEY'RE HERE
>>386850725
They changed all fonts for the HD release. Call it nostalgia, but this looks worse than Comic Sans.
>its not an early release date
>>386850690
YIFF THE FUCK IN FUCKING HELL YOU FUCKING FURFAG PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>386850738
>act 2 of the old levels are completely different.
Proof?
CONFIRMED NO EARLY RELEASE
>It's not an early release date
I knew it was too good to be true but what in fucks name could they even have left to announce?
Please don't tell me this ride is over...
>>386850428
It's just butthurt from only 4 new stages. Some of them were saying the game was rushed.
>>386850776
>>386850603mecha > metal
>>386850910
probably some day one patch shit
Objectively why not just release it today
>>386850162
>If I game overd here 12 times

>game over here 12 times
SHOTS
FUCKING
FIRED
>>386850951
more like day one DLC
Guy on stream just said "You know what'd be really embarrassing? If I managed to get game over on this level 12 times."
>>386849785
>getting mad about a game that's a remix of the Mega Drive games not having entirely new content
>>386850858
>>386850910
This was confirmed last night you idiots
>You know what would be really embarrassing guys? If I game over'd here 12 times.
>>386850960
Probably because they'd have to pull a bunch of strings to get multiple companies to push up the release on their stores. Plus it would screw over people who have their Collector's Editions currently on delivery.
>>386850962
>Cycle doesn't even apply to the game it's using pictures of.
>game overed 12 times

>>386850846
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52UGIIIp9WE
act 1 here is kind of a mashup of both original acts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG6z9E6_LA8
act 2 is all new stuff but still has throwbacks here and there to the original level designs
GOD I WANT TO PLAY SONIC MANIA HOLY FUCKING SHIT BRING IT TO ME RIGHT FUCKING NOW
>>386850963
>>386850979
I avoided the leaker stream. Did they die a lot?

AARON HAS BEEN TWEETING BEFORE THE STREAM
SURPRISE RELEASE SOON
>>386851095
You have no fucking idea
>if you die 13 times in a stage in Sonic Mania you unlock Big the Cat mode
>>386851095
yeah the guy fucking sucked hard, I guess since he is a fatfuck his brain is just so full of grease he can barely play
Also wow, the fucking baiter is working hard on this thread holy shit, are you in need of (you)'s that hard? respond you piece of shit
>You know what'd be really embarrasing? If I game over'd here 12 times
8GAG UTTERLY BTFO
>>386851095
He was literally worse than DSP.
He got several game overs in the second fucking level.

Serval aren't you watching the stream? They have a big announcement. The ride is far from over!
>>386850910

10 Game Overs
>That feel
>Waifu

/ourguy/.
>>386851512
Guy replayed it like 12 or 13 times because he sucked so bad at the boss fight. Many game overs.
>>386851512
Game Overs
lots of them
What the fuck are you guys watching? All I see is some guy playing Sonic Adventure 2.
>Some useless fat fuck gets to play the game before anyone else gets too
>He can't even play the game let alone go one zone without eating a dinner meal
It's not fair bros
>>386851512
Leaker died 33 times, took almost 2 hours
>>386850963
>>386850979
>>386851512
The streamer just kept dying, around 12~13 times for a single level. It's the darker souls of platformers.
>>386851574
9/10 times leakers are complete shit at the game they're playing for some reason.
This is gonna be the El Nino of sonic cycles. I will water my crops with your tears.
Special announcement will be a physical release.
physical release plz
>calling Aaron live

>>386851174
>this guy actually works for them in a professional capacity now
>he did the animation in the OP
>>386850268
he only did the gumball comics, he didn't work on the show. He was following Boquet's direction.
It's hilarious how 1 guy is on shitposting overdrive trying to get (you)'s and everyone is ignoring him.
What if Aaron has fucking died?
>calling Aaron on the stream
>hey webhead
WEBHEADS DED! O MAI GAWD!!!!!
>>386851648
I imagine the srw leakers are part of that 10% or 1/10.
Motherfuckers are efficient as fuck!
THANKS
>>386851758
Is this loss?
I wonder if I could finish a round of Gigantic before they actually get things on the road.
>>386851648
Most leakers aren't exactly fans, they just get the game because it's not released yet and they want attention and fame online.
Standing by what I said last night while watching the stream now that ive seen all of it. Im pretty bummed with the game. I dont mind spoilers in general, because if something is good, it only makes me want to play it more. But I just kinda felt like everything was just ok. Never saw anything that made me go like wow I have to play that! I actually felt like some levels were worse than the originals too watching. Lava reef was especially disappointing considering how well a stage like that told a story in S3K, leading to hidden palace zone as well.. It just really lost all its charm.
Aaron answer the phone you fucking webhead!
>>386851661
The only salt from me is Amazon not shipping my PS4 CE 'till a week after release. So I preordered a second copy on Steam. And if Switch gets a physical version, I'll triple dip.
>>386851648
>He was so fucking terrible that he fell off the fucking plane in Mirage Saloon
He's like DSP's brother or something
>Aaron being late is all staged
>he drops in, yells MANIA WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD TODAY, and then quickly leaves
Have you guys actually lost the hype for Mania? seriously?
Aaron got fired, didn't he?
>dragged into a meeting about mania
lizuka is lynching him for going too far
>>386851930
HOW CAN YOU FUCKING FALL FROM A PLANE IN A 2D SONIC PLANE STAGE!?

Nope, just check some of the polls that get posted to see what the actual consensus is.
>the game will be available early only on Switch
All lubed up and nowhere to go,
SCREENCAP THIS,
SONIC MANIA DELAYED TO ADD EXTRA CONTENT, CHANGE UP THINGS DUE TO THE LEAK
DEMO RELEASE OF 1-2 ZONES AFTER
>>386852042
Physical release or Mania available later today after the stream.
>>386852042
>>386852021
>>386852081
It's about the Leaker and what to do about it.
Can't you faggots just wait a few more days? Fuck early release just give us a physical release.
>>386852081
Might as well considering how late he is to this stream.
>>386852051
Dip-shit Phil
>>386852094
Yeah, its possible give the circumstances.
But its not 100%sure, this next move can build or destroy a lot of sega and the sonic youtube reputation.

>>386852823
the leaker was a switch fag though
I don't understand how you can have the game ready for 3 different consoles but the PC version isn't ready.
>>386852823
It was actually leaked on the Switch version.
THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF PCFATS
>>386852505
>>386852823
The game leaked was the switch version, imbecile!
Real delay reason was to make PC the last version launched for less piracy lmao

This is some actual supreme bullshit, they're hiding the real reason behind the delay.
>>386852885
I'm not buying the game twice to play it on inferior hardware for two weeks just because Taxman is retarded.
But I AM definitely not paying for it anymore.
SONIC MANIA CONFIRMED FOR IN THE BOX
>game has fucking toaster requirements
>they have to delay it for 2 weeks for 'optimization'

pc cant run sonic mania kek
Now would be an excellent time for anyone with a review copy of PC Mania to leak it ;)
Screw Mania, I'm spending my money on something else

PC versions have to accommodate a bunch of different hardware configurations but any problems should have been ironed out in QA weeks ago
>>386852965
this
It's a standard piracy buffer, console games do this all the time. it's the price PC users pay for free games
Is the "good news" actually an unboxing? Seriously? I stayed up for this shit?
Anyone with a toaster can pirate and run Sonic Mania so they had to delay it on PC to make sure that doesn't happen lmaoooooo
>>386849785
PLASTIC CONFIRMED

Holy fuck you are a retard why don't you buy it on """inferior""" hardware and pirate it later anyway retard
that's it, i had enough.
cucked yet again
>>386853070
Nah get fucked Taxman, and get fucked SEGA. I'm pirating Sonic Mania, and I'm probably pirating Vanquish now too.
Might see if I can get a refund on any other garbage I own from them.
>>386852505
Does the Switch release actually run poorly?
>>386853170
>paid good bucks
no they just want to make more bucks
pc versions release later to stop piracy.
>Bad news is that PC players have to wait two extra weeks (but will get a game they already own)
>Good news is that they're unboxing the collector's edition we already know everything about
this is more disappointing than the game itself
>>386852905
That's what you PCfats get for constantly crying about 4K 240fps. Now they have to delay it so it can be optimized to satisfy you ungrateful cunts.
>>386853190
the switch release is the one the leaker played yesterday and it ran fine.
FUCK PC AND FUCK PC PEOPLE
>>386853171
Because you vote with your wallet and I'm not supporting this garbage. It's straight up incompetency on their end.
>Calling me the retard in this situation
Genuinely hilarious.
>>386853190
not as bad as the pc version
>>386853242
Which version of the game?
Jesus fuck it's two WEEKS
Are your lives that hollow that two weeks can feel like forever?
It's okay, i'll wait till you get your beta testing done, consolefags
why even live
>>386853270
>Straight up incompetency
Yeah how dare they delay the game to make sure its not shit rather than release it and you just refund it
Weren't there some review copies on the PC being played or something?
Boy this sure are some GOOD and IMPORTANT news we are getting here.
>>386853296
YES, SONIC MANIA IS THE ONLY THING I'M LOOKING FORWARD IN MY LIFE, IF SONIC CAN RECOVER THEN I CAN RECOVER TOO BUT I HAVE TO PLAY IT FIRST, I HAVE TO SEE IT WITH MY OWN EYES.
FUCK
>>386853296
Everyone wanted to play Mania before classes start or some shit.
p-pc master race!!!!!!!
HERE WE GO AGAIN TORRENT
>yfw they only delayed it on PC so they could get idorts to buy it twice
>>386853296
>Announcing 5 days before launch that your game is being delayed two weeks
It's literally GRIMWAH tier.
There's no excuse for something like this. Not only is it unbelievable that they didn't work this out ages ago, they HAVE TO HAVE KNOWN FOR A WHILE NOW that they weren't going to make the PC date and didn't tell anymore until the last possible second to maximize them fucking preorders.
This is genuinely one of the most incompetent and greedy moves I've ever seen a video game company make. Go fuck yourself shiteater.
>>386853349
That's probably how they found out about these PC issues, and decided last minute to delay it.
It's pretty common for reviewers to report serious issues with games in the review phase.
>>386853296
I could fucking die between those weeks!
Man card confirmed.....w rounded edges
>>386853296
A two week delay is worse when we're 4 days away from release, especially when every other platform is getting it on the proper date.
>PC delay by 2 weeks
>Sonic 1 rom as an apology
Should have just given them the soundtrack.
>>386853382
You should probably kill yourself
>>386853380
kek, this
>>386851559
those are pretty normie terms.
>>386853347
It should have been finished ages ago and they would have been aware for awhile they weren't going to be ready in time.
So theres no actual cartridge for the Switch version, theres a download code for every version?
Isn't there a normal boxed version of Sonic, without the special edition?
>>386853414
>This is genuinely one of the most incompetent and greedy moves I've ever seen a video game company make.
You must be new to video games if that's true.
>A fucking cock ring
>all these PCbros trying to justify their pirating by claiming they would have "bought" it today
This is why no company likes releasing shit for PC
>>386853296
Yes! Cuz we are innocent, we didnt leak the game, it was that mark dude and it was the switch version.
And yeah it is to limit piracy, which is stupid cuz a lot of people already preordered.
Not to mention every console is extremely overpriced here in mexico, with 10000peso you can buy a pc that does more things than a console be the xboner, the ps4 or the switch.
>>386853487
nope
>>386853296
>Are your lives that hollow that two weeks can feel like forever?
>>386853507
For a dick YOUR size, sure.
>>386853487
No, there's no physical copy of the game on any platform.
>>386853296
Yes. I'm already buying Kiwami then and I don't have anything to play for the next couple weeks
There are no PC optimization issues, you're gullible. Straight up piracy prevention. A computer from 2000 can run Sonic Mania and they are just delaying it because even console fags could pirate and play it on their PC.
>>386853479
Whatever dude have fun not playing it =)
>>386849785
but can you put the cartidge in that sonic genesis statue?
>>386853541
Dang. Oh well.
>>386853487
It's a digital only game, you idiot, this was announced practically day-one
poorfag PCbros BTFO
>>386853487
No disc/cartridge
CE is a statue and fake cartridge with a ring inside and a metal card with a code for whatever platform you chose
No good news confirmed ggg
>>386853451
It better fucking be the taxman remaster.
Hahahahahhahahha glad I gave up the PC life to move to superior Xbox
so how long was the game, since you guys watched someone stream it? how many levels were there?
>>386853414
>not micro-transactions
>not the ea re released
>not kike starters stealing money
>not asset flipping from indie devs
The good news is that PC master race has two weeks to check out the gameplay from consoles and decide if it is a good game or not, instead of bluntly spending thier money. Master race actually wins again.
>>386853618
They confirmed it's not
>>386853618
Its not.
>>386853618
It isn't, its the Steam rom version.
>>386851095
Made DSP look like a pro.
>>386853618
Confirmed not. They can't even get Mania out on time and you expect them to pull the taxman remaster out of their ass?
>>386849917
>>386849973
>>386850017
>>386850101
>>386850596
These are all me btw
>>386853618
It's not. Fuck everything.
>>386853618
It's not. It's just a rom.
I'm fuckin livid though. How difficult is it to "optimize" a game like Mania for PC? Especialy knowing the lead devs. I mean just look at the software reqs... I think the ethical thing to do would have been to include a pass for the PC version if you pre-order the PS4 or Xbone version. I was really looking forward to playing it next week on a Saturn controller. Now I gotta use a shitty DS4.
>North America Only
GET FUCKED EUROPE!
>>386853618
They confirmed it wasn't
Honestly what the fuck is wrong with you Sega, just release the fucking game I don't give a shit if it runs bad just patch it in the next few days. They've had since June when it was finished to get beta testers to see it was unoptimized and yet they only beta testing they had in the end were the reviewers who got sent review copies. Fucking retarded
>>386853296
I'm waiting for my Switch to arrive.
It wont come for probably a little over a week, and this would have helped kill the time until then.
Two weeks when you're bored is a looooong two weeks.
>>386853661
Just shut up you retard, you werent going to buy it anyway.
Its because assholes like you pc gets no respect.
>it would have came out on the one day I could have played it before uni starts up again

You had every opportunity to check the gameplay during Mark's godawful stream, you idiot

I can't believe that so close to release SEGA somehow managed to fuck things up.
>>386853654
It's as long as S3&K. Like, exactly the same act count, both have 24.
Is there literally any reason I shouldn't refund this and get it on ps4 now aside from saving like 2 bucks and getting sonic 1?

How accurate is this? Where did the leaks come from?I don't mind it if it's actually true

did it for them.
Sega fucked shit up again because they don't realize how the fuck shit works.
>>386854171
yeah man I'll fuck off right on the 15th
>>386853792
God bless. From the leakers footage the game looks fucking awesome (but terribly ported to switch). I'm honestly fine that PC is being delayed. Sucks a bit but damn what're ya going to do? It's sad that for the people on this board Sonic Mania is the only thing they're caring about in their lives. Consolefags and pcfags are both cancerous terms, and I hate this board for ever creating them. I loved those comfy threads, now people avoiding spoilers are gone and people with nothing better to do just shitpost multiple times here. God now I remember why I fucking hate 4chan, you're all as autistic as Mark playing sonic mania.
>PC COLLECTORS EDITION COMING OUT TUESDAY

Shit, well, at least you guys don't have it as bad as Metroid fans.
>>386854196

Haven't seen the leak. How does the game look?

As a PC fag, this shit is fucking awful, but as an idort, yeah whatever I can just buy it twice.

>THE ABSOLUTETAXMAN
http://www.strawpoll.me/13682219

>>386854471
Don't developers often do this to discourage piracy? Like they know people own multiple systems and won't want to wait 2 weeks so they'll pony up the cash to just get it sooner on console.
It makes more sense in this case since damn near any PC can run this thing and pirating it isn't going to be hard at all.
>>386854565
How is he a fraud? It seems you just want someone to direct your hate to.
It's 100% SEGA, they were just having a big meeting and everything. They are probably delaying it for business reasons or to put some shitty anti piracy shit in it as they don't get how gamers work. I don't buy that it's for optimization reasons, and if it was to fix bugs they could just release patches or quickly fix the bugs before release in a few days.
>>386854651
They have new layouts and some new gimmicks, but they're the same zones
>>386854593
Just stay away from 4chan or any social media that you know the game would be talked about.
>Something like 70% of people were planning to play this on PC according to a poll ITT
>All these faggots trying to shit on anons instead of attacking these fuckers for pulling something like this

>yfw they delayed it on PC because game is so shit that they install anti-pirating bullshit into the game so you couldn't download it for free

>>386854651
there are new stages and old stages
act 1 for old stages are a remix with act 2 being a completely new
>>386854448
Fucking you how if you can refund and get it on another platform ?
Anyway, those who decide now to pirate it when it comes out now are why PC people had it coming
You brought this on yourselves

as a pc uck without any current gen consoles i avoided the leaks, but now that i know i'm getting fucked in the ass anyway i might as well embrace them
the delay probably some kind of wacky last second decision because of piracy or leaks, but what can you do
i'm not going to pick up a 200 dollar paperweight just to play a game 2 weeks earlier
>>386854593
But the entire game has already leaked.
>>386854813

Actually it's the opposite for one of the zones.

>>386854336
It's not funny you piece of shit, fuck SEGA and fuck this game!
>>386854907
Act 2 ofStardust Speedway has the new Metal fight tho, which takes up over half the stage from the looks of it. I would call that remixing enough
Good thing I have a PC and a PS4, I'll be helping with the beta test before moving on to the definitive version later.

Canceled my pre-order, I'll wait to pirate it in two weeks.
>>386855182
Taxman is shit is the reason.

I'm frustrated about the delay but it's correct. People will be upset about game getting delayed, but if the game runs like shit on recommended specs people will bomb the Steam page with negative reviews which would hurt sales more in the long run.

>company delays the game at the very last second, fucks over paying customers and locks themselves out of potentially thousands of PC sales because they're too lazy and incompetent to ship their toaster-tier hardware requirement game on time

Not that guy, but buying it on Switch and pirating it on PC is master race

>he thinks the delay really has to do with optimizations
Taxman's engine has already been used for the Sonic CD and runs fine. Not only that, the engine runs on toaster phones for the Android remasters.
Not to mention the actual listed minimal specs imply PCs from a decade ago should be able to run this no problem.

Oh the irony.
Does this mean that you'll be able to preorder it on steam with the discount until the PC release date?
>17 more days
>because we here care about quality so instead of delaying all versions for "bug fixes" let's delay the PC version in paticular because for some reason every other version of the game is OK
>oh but here's an emulated Sonic 1 to keep you busy have fun!
I know you fucks browse here too you could've at least given us a demo.

/V/'s DAY ONE BUYS DROP FROM 80% to 57% after the delay announcement
you can't make this shit up. how could they fuck up this bad
>PC users butthurt that Sega delayed the game because piracy
Just refund, buy it on console, and pirate it on PC. Now you have the game on multiple systems. If the game had good antipiracy they would release it same time as console, obviously the game has shit protection and will run on toasters.

Anon they said the game went gold weeks ago. The other versions (that are the ones being ported over) have none of this issues and previous games on this engine worked with no problems whatsoever on PC.
This "optimization" is the most sketchy thing I've heard in a while to say the least.
