The fact that she can broom murder things that Rock needs an advanced plasma gun to kill means Roll is fearsome indeed

With an actual weapon she may be unstoppable

@Bocaj: Well in Marvel V Capcom 2 she is playable and has a gun like her brother.

So how are people actually enjoying this game? I've only tried Bounce Man so far, since I had limited time to play last night and it is about what I expected. Some ingenious level gimmicks based on 'bounce', but overall, nothing crazy awesome. Although the frog mini-boss, once you realize what it was, made me laugh hard.

I've played Impact Man and Bounce Man's stages so far. They were pretty fun. Impact Man is hilarious.

Roll’s great in Tatsunoko x Capcom. Do not mess with the broom.

Playable Roll would be great. Speed Gear Roll, now with twice as slow broom smacks to the face.

So how much would I need to know to pick up 11 and how good is 11? My knowledge of the franchise is all over the place since I've really only played some of Legends 2 and most of my experience comes from watching bits and pieces of different anime (A couple episodes fo NT Warriors and a couple episodes of Starforce.).

Honestly, it's just Mega Man. The story always boils down to "Wily unleashes eight robots in themed levels and wait for you in a multiple-stage final level". You don't need to play any of the other games unless you just want a feel for how the mechanics work.

Yeah, it's not like the later X games, Zero, or ZX where there's more lore and story going on.

To be fair, I do appreciate quite a bit that this game's plot doesn't involved Hijacked By Gannon like most of them do. This more retreads the plot of the first Megaman game, actually.

[up] Why not just simply ignore that?

After all, I really doubt stuff like that will matter in the long run.

Greenlit doesn’t mean it will get made

This begs for development hell

To be fair there's a pretty good live-action Megaman fan film.

If by pretty good you mean laughably cheesy at best.

So, anyone still wondering about what happened to that Star Force costume we saw back in Game Informer's January 2018 issue when they were covering Mega Man 11?

We finally got an explanation, courtesy of developer commentary from the Rockman 11 Production Note book!

Essentially, it was a placeholder costume for Tundra Storm (the weapon you get after beating Tundra Man) and apparently the journalist who was taking photos took a photo of that. Capcom says sorry about that!

I have a theory that all of Mega Man 11's in-universe budget cuts are due to out-of-universe budget cuts or time constraints at Capcom. XD

There are in-universe budget cuts in MM 11?
