Daily reminder we didn't get proper DLC for Sonic Generation.
"money? eh, no thanks"
- sega when asked about JSRF PC port, Generations DLC, Colors DLC, Sonic Racing track DLC (that isnt shit), or Generations 2
>>333689860
>Sega JP
fixed
>>333689860
>>333690709
>get Sonic Generations for PS3 when it's like $10 in stores
>Casino Night Zone Pinball never went on PSN store
>>333691235
>Playing Sonic Generations 30 fps edition
>>333690709
>implying normies like sonic
They don't
>>333689860
Why did they cut and run so far away from Generations? Did not everyone sing its praises? What the fuck is wrong with them?
>>333691341
The PC port wasn't so hot either. No native directinput support? Fuck you Sega.
>>333691378
>Did not everyone sing its praises?
Precisely why they cut and run.
>>333689860
That's why it's modded to shit. In this case, PC mustard's actually do win.
>>333691491
>No native directinput support? Fuck you Sega.
Let's be honest here, it's what most of devs do nowaday.
DirectInput is for Flightstick and racing game for most people nowaday.
>>333691635
60 fps and tolerable loading time was a good enough reason.
>>333691703
Sonic is a platformer, which widely utilize controllers. Even fucking Shovel Knight supports that shit.
>>333691769
No shit. I lived this game, but was about to throw it the wayside before I found out how amazing the modding community was.
>>333691378
They're allergic to money
>>333689860
We got better. We got the entirety of Unleashed
Seriously holy shit Unleashed Project might be the best mod ever
>>333691378
Because they hate money and have no idea what the fuck a Sonic is anymore.
Now then, let's get to the meat of the thread: what's your favorite mod combination? I like Unleashed + Classic, myself. Adds a neat and unique challenge.
>We get Sonic Boom 2 instead
let just sink that in
You can't make that shit up.
>>333691974
This isn't fair
>Best 3D plateformer with Generation
>Best Kart game with All Stars transformed
WE
GET
SONIC
BOOM
2
INSTEAD
>mfw playing Sonic 2006's levels with Sonic Boom Sonic is not only a thing that exists, but it's actually fun.
>>333690709
"Why did we buy Atlus again"
-Sega on why they didn't plan to localize SMTIV Final
>>333692141
SATAM was amazing. Fuck off. That cartoon was still good as an adult.
And All Stars was great. So was generations.
>>333691974
Nah, those aren't even made in-house. Sonic Team has to be working on something.
>>333692290
Phantasy Star online 2 localization for Steam?
Nah, nobody would be interested in a Hack and slash. lol haha
>>333689860
Thanks for the reminder.
They could have rode the gravy train with Generations just a bit more but what a surprise, they didn't. It's going on 5 five years old now and fans have taken over what they should have done.
>>333691635
Fucking this. I didn't even like Generations as much as you fags, in fact I think it's just subpar and Colors is much better and is the best 3D Sonic by far, but the mod support in Generations is godlike. I actually could enjoy Sonic Unleashed through Generation mods. Fucking awesome.
>>333691378
Colors was better
>>333691703
Having Dinput is basic ass functionality and the default for windows. Not having it is pure laziness. Its doubly bad when fucking SFV doesnt have Dinput support which means that you cant even use the madcatz fightsticks that was advertised alomg with the game. Its shit like that that should have been in from day one.
>no new Virtua Fighter in almost a decade
>>333692254
Who in this thread even mentioned SatAM?

>>333692539
>Colors was better
I haven't played it, but I also doubt that. It doesn't look very Sonic-y. Which Generations nailed.
>>333692383
Nobody would ever want that, Sega. Nobody.
>>333692620
The creator is dead now. Nothing will ever come of it. But it shows the series had something going for it.
>>333692657
Sonic the fighters
Fun as shit, but nowhere as deep as the main series.
>>333692795
>The creator is dead now. Nothing will ever come of it. But it shows the series had something going for it.
That's too bad and all, but didn't really answer my question.
>>333692795
Yeah, but... The doesn't answer his question. Are you drunk, or something?
>>333692902
*that doesn't
Jeez. Am I drunk?
>>333692709
Maybe you should try actually playing it
>>333693029
I guess I don't have an excuse now that I have a Wii U.
>>333693029
Not him, but both Colors and Generations had their own identities in terms of aesthetic. Both are fine in their own ways. But we can all agree that Lost World's aesthetic was uninspired and dull as brick, right?
>>333692539
>Colors was better
the fact that it was for the wii makes it worse by default
>>333692902
Of course I am. And yes I'm sad he's dead. I grew up with that series.
And yes, I loved Generations and All Stars Transformed. I can only hope Sega makes more, but for the time being I'm looking towards the modding community.
>>333693538
Well, while you're under the table, perhaps also taking a look at not just mods, but a few of the up and coming fangames on the way. I think this one has some real promise.
Here's hoping that the guy in charge doesn't fuck it up by making it so "open world" that we can't actually figure out which way is progress.
It's been known for a long time Sega hates money and will throw it at retarded ideas all the time this is nothing new
Look how many shitty Sonic games their have been. It's more than the amount of good ones
>>333693717
I've been waiting for that faggot to post something.
His fan game looks incredible. Probably one of the best things I've seen from the modding community, but to call that a mod is disservice to what he's been doing.
Been waiting for an update, actually.
>>333691378
Because SEGA and Sonic Team are run by idiots.
>>333693442
Thats not how this works anon
>>333693181
I like it because its the only semblance of Sonic Xtreme we'll ever get
>>333693717
>guy turns sonic into a formula 1 car
cant wait for this to come out so people see how bad this is
>>333693181
Lost World as a whole is the most uninteresting Sonic game I've ever played.
>>333694008
You've only seen one video. It looks legit.
>>333693717
>>333693863
I've seen this reposted again and again, and I don't see what I'm supposed to be excited for.
Right now, this is a glorified tech demo for something that isn't a game yet. It doesn't look fun, or entertaining. It's like Sonic Extreme. That doesn't grab my attention.
>>333691378
Sonic Generations was in development for an extra long time and took an extra big budget. Sega is looking for something easier and cheaper to make.
>>333693717
this must be what they call blast processing
>>333694008
I'll be honest, it's not particularly what I want from a Sonic game either. Here's hoping it works out.
>>333694317
>Here's hoping it works out.
It's a fangame. You're asking for too much.
They can't all be Sonic after the Sequels.
>>333693442
It wouldn't have been made if it WASN'T on the Wii
>>333693442
Just play it on Dolphon. There is a 60fps hack.
>>333693863
You rang? I've been waiting until we made some MAJOR progress before sharing anything again.
First off: we've overhauled the game's entire color palette. Gone are the drab, hyper-realistic colors from >>333693717. We've gone in a direction more akin to how a lot of Classic Sonic artwork looks. Lots of vibrant colors that really give off an otherworldly tone.
Second: Sonic's physics have received a few tweaks as well. Sonic now has a lot more power over slopes while running. Before, the player was all but a slave to the terrain no matter if they were rolling, or running. We decided to let the player feel a bit more empowered in this regard. Now, they will be able to traverse steeper hills without being forced back down by gravity. The player won't be moving too quickly up these hills, naturally, but their sense of exploration will no longer be hindered quite as much.
Third: Gravity itself has been increased, giving Sonic more weight and power to his movements
>>333694309
source?
>>333694849
fuuuuck. was about to go to bed.
I thought your physics worked well with the 2d sonics but whatever. I hope you will make a thread tomorrow.
Regardless I'll play whatever you release. You guys seem to know what you are doing.
>>333695074
We hope so. Thank you for your support. If you end up not going to bed, feel free to ask any questions. I'm gonna go ahead and record a new webm to replace that old one that you folks keep passing around. It's outdated and does not represent our current standards.
>>333694849
>>333695265
looking good m8. the bluer/purple sky is nice
>>333695265
Nope, EST and too forgone. Wish you guys the best. Hope to hear from you soon.
>>333690709
Outrun Bay is good you shithead.
>>333692247
Because Atlas actually makes money.
>>333692254
SatAM is pretty mediocre.
>>333695593
After watching it in recent years, I have to agree. It had a good formula and some real style, but everything from animation to the nonsensical resolutions is pretty underwhelming to adult eyes.
>>333689860
>they have a perfect reason to milk dlc and nobody would even complain for once
>they don't do it
See, Sega, this is why you had to go third party.
>>333694309
Are you sure you don't mean Unleashed?
>>333695684
It's basically an unrelated kids show that wasn't able to get into full production so they just shoved Sonic into it because Sega wanted a show and reusing that shit was easier, cheaper, and faster than coming up with original shit. Just look at the concept art for robotnik and sally. Robotnik looks more like the zelda cartoon ganon.
>>333695803
>no PC version of Unleashed
Shame, I really like that game werehog and all. Would love to see it on a stable framerate. In before
>just get the unleashed mod for generations
It's not the same, the physics are different.
>>333695931
The reason it had middling quality wasn't because it wasn't "Sonic enough" though. They just wrote stories that didn't go anywhere so they had to wrap them up in the last 5-10 minutes. I don't know if it was because they were lazy or because they couldn't storyboard properly.
Also, the animation just took steep nosedives from time to time. Probably another result of scavenging frames from unused sequences or something.
>>333695998
>It's not the same, the physics are different.
good
>>333690709
>JSRF PC port
Probably licensing issues if I were to guess. JSR got ported to nearly everything and back I don't see why Future wouldn't unless it's tied up in licensing.
>>333696710
I'm pretty sure Microsoft alone calls the shots on that game, they did pay for it.
>>333696710
because JSRF is basically JSR 1.3
Alright. Here's that new Webm. Unless anyone has any more questions regarding the project I'm gonna hit the hay.
>>333696710
Tragic when legal bullshit keeps vidya out of peoples' hands.
>>333691378
Apparently they said they've done all they can with the boost formula.
Basically, they want to experiment for the sake of experimentation.
This is why the series is where it is today.
Are there any mods where I can play as natural Amy? If Sonic doesn't need clothes, neither does she!
>>333697048
If they were good at experimentation, I wouldn't have a problem with it. But they really, truly are not.
>>333696970
where can i play this?
>>333696970
Is it just gonna be green hill or do you have other levels in mind?
>>333696970
Looks great, the only thing that bothers me is the start of the spindash reminds me of sonic 06. i prefer the energy ball effect from the adventure games and heroes
>>333697231
Currently? At my house, on my desktop.
This will change before too long, hopefully. We're making slow, but steady progress on the second half of the level.
>>333696970
Looks fun as hell.
>>333697149
>tfw no official nude female Sonic friend
Why Sega are so sexist ?
>>333696970
Will this Sonic be able to utilize the figure eight peel out move? I liked that more than spin dash.
>>333697352
Noted. It is impossible to please everyone, but we hope that the final draft of the effect will please as many folks as we can. Personally, I've always been a sucker for the DBZ style of energy effects. The idea was for it to appear as through Sonic were drawing energy from around him.
>>333697416
Thanks, man. Every comment and every critique goes a long way for our team.
>>333697552
Tails
>>333697572
We considered it, but mechanically there was no need for such a technique. See, in our engine the player can switch back and forth between rolling and running with the push of a button without needing to jump. This was to ensure that the player had as much control over Sonic as possible when traversing the sloping terrain.
As such, in order to achieve the same effect as the Super Peel-out one would simply need to Spin Dash and then immediately shift into running as shown here.
Functionally-speaking, you may perform both the Spin Dash and a psudo-Peel-out of if you so desire. Spin Dash is simply the default.
>>333697652
>It is impossible to please everyone, but we hope that the final draft of the effect will please as many folks as we can.
of course, do what you will my man. it's your project. i'll still play it either way.
>>333698376
Thanks for understanding. As fans, we understand that even the smallest aesthetic details can be off-putting if not handled with care. We know that we cannot please everyone, but we will do what we can to satiate as many fans as we can.
DLC selling well is a meme. Most people play half the game and drop it for the next marketed flavor of the month game. Look at completion rates on psn or steam. 20% of players beat the game, 5% still play the game, and 1% would buy dlc. Dlc is a meme
>>333698610
Do you plan on posting your project on Sonic Retro's forums?
>>333698610
Well you're trying, and you're modest about it. I'm not thrilled but I wish you the best of luck.
sometimes when you have a shitty life it's hard to be optimistic for talented people. Salty all the time, salty all the time.
>>333700424
Eventually, yeah. Not just yet, though.
>>333700607
Keep a stiff upper dick, Anon. We're rootin' for ya.
>>333697337
Sorry for not getting to you! I must have missed your question. At the moment only Green Hill is planned. Our intention is not to make a full game. Merely a demonstration of what 3D Sonic has the potential to be and to provide a playable argument against those who would assert that "3D Sonic can't work."
