AM2R - Escape The Facility!

[@uziman477]

I didn't know it was possible to be this bad

[@DominionWolf]

On one hand, I'm not sure how I feel about the scripting however I love that it subverted the trope in that you don't actually make it in time.

[@Chloroxite]

Natalia Valkyria Actually I am sure if you are fast enough you CAN make it in time, but I dont really know if that is the case.

[@Nerom99]

+Chloroxite Probably not, notice how the temperature meter slingshots as you get to those gates. Since that's a fixed tine interval, the rate of temperature rise was likely programmed to increase to where you can't make it out.

[@grannest5050]

After checking a Speedrun, you can't make that in time. The heat level increase as fast as you are 😂

[@thecjgameworld4013]

@@Chloroxite did you not see that bar as soon as they reached the exit, it excellerated to the end as soon as they were near those doors.

Samus aran: (Screams) C,mon!!!!!!? Let me out!!!!!

[@TMan5636]

I remember doing this for the first time. I read the info to this place and took notice of the part where it said that it would blow up if the temperature changed, then I got the Power Bomb and I reeled back with a disturbed look on my face. Saw that the door was locked and said "You're really gonna make me do this aren't you?" At the end when the explosion happened, I swear I felt my heart dip down in shock. God damn was this such a good part of the game, though I swear I lost about five years of my life from that.

[@PPLazer]

2:52 it would be funny if they added a animation demonstrating Samus’ anxiety I mean she’s just like “oh it’s just another countdown/escape sequence”

[@tailpig6417]

She's had at least 4 of those by now: Zero Mission (twice), Prime (off-screen) and Prime 2

[@TheRawyan]

@@TheRawyan I've started playing Prime since, but thanks

[@samuraicupcake289]

I was quite literally blown away by this sequence! Truly amazing work. Worthy of a true Metroid game. My heart was racing, it was awesome. Then, as I survived with 5 energy and left the room, I got hit by enemy while flying up and died. Wasn't unhappy to replay that section haha

[@ARCEUS493ZELDA]

same thing happened to me XD........ tried to space jump my way to a save point only to have an enemy get in my way and kill me

[@m3tr0id86]

I literally have a save of this part just so I can do this again because this is an escape sequence worthy of a mention course, nintendont obviously didn't pick it up or even decide to polish it up very nicely to where this would have been even more Epic. Don't believe me Seca action picked Retro Sonic. Wait Retro Sonic is evolving! (via trade) Congratulations, Retro Sonic evolved into Sonic Mania!

[@Sr.5902]

s-a-m-e

[@ChrisHinners008]

Spoiler alert: this section is actually an interactive cutscene, yiu saw that the bar filled up slower then he was progressing, but filled up really fast at the end. This is because it’s scripted to have the door open just always one bit too late

[@edwardjn8555]

damn, that's the exact same way i died after completing the escape lol.

[@mikevanvoorst6815]

Honestly, when I saw the light, I thought I died. And while I had 5 energy, I stick close to the walls. I got to the save point, so.

[@yoshifan2334]

It's funny because I forgot the wave beam but had plasma at this point, it shits all over the tank prototype

[@sapphireskyes3571]

This escape is simply amazing! It's my favorite part of AM2R. I even have challenges for the power plant, like minimum ammo use, no hit, low equipment, and single beam. I can also clear out the power plant in four in-game minutes. My fastest IGT for the escape is 96 seconds.

[@TheKenchanx]

Such a pity Nintendo hated on this. This is an amazing sequence. Kind of wonder, if they ever get around to making a new game, whether they'll do a similar escape scenario?

[@NotImpostoOG]

They did TWO in Metroid Fusion the one in the PYR Emergency (Sector 3) when fighting an X-Core and the one in the final escape sequence with the Omega Metroid (Sorry if i spoiled the game)

[@Mikau888]

i thought the "thermal device" escape in Dread played a bit similarly to this one in concept

I didn't know it was scripted. A really cool scene that's on pair with any official Metroid game.

[@rayray-qk9dm]

ya know i never noticed what the thing ment by "sudden rise in temperature" untill i played down a power bomb just to see the effect of the bomb not knowing the door closed behind me and i'm like "oh that's cool... wait was that thing back there alway's cracked?" then the music starts and i absolutly bolt down the reveiled path knowing that i need to MOVE

[@Cellmate]

When I did this part and saw the core turn red and then get covered with cracks, I just said "oh shit."

[@Mateoski97]

Always get the Plasma Beam before going through here. It makes the boss a lot easier and you'll save on a lot of missiles.

[@gamingawesomeness222]

Apparently the glyphs actually do spell “reactor”

[@lordsyn86]

Metroid has always been legendary for its escape sequences. You beat motherbrain? Now you got 3 minutes until you die to redo the whole game in reverse mostly.

[@Sr.5902]

The First time i play through this section My reaction was like: "¡O, great i get the power bombs!" "Now i will just go back to_ " [door blocked] "Wait so how i am suposed to escape" -Looks to the core "Oh...." "Oh no..." . . . "Ugh" "Here we go again" . . (The final part) 5:00 . . "¡PLEASE GOD OPEN THE $&@#*" DOOR!" . . . "Guess il die_ oh wait"

Getting Power Bombs AM2R vs Samus Returns AM2R: getting them and then having to go through a sweat factory of an escape sequence Samus Returns: fighting a giant sweat factory named Diggernaut and then getting the Power Bombs I’ll mark it down as a draw

[@1vony]

I just finished the game yesterday and gotta say it has been the most difficult metroid games for me. The only thing I like about Diggernaut is its theme.

I believe it's a scripted sequence. I could be wrong though but you have to suffer the damage.

[@zadonzd8604]

Ivony Yea its scripted, noticed how at the end the temperature slingshotted?

I wish there was a secret exit you could take to avoid scripted damage

Samus: now that I have the Power Bomb, all that's left to do is get out. *sees hatch is locked* what? No, no, no! There must another way out of here! *frantically searches for alternate escape route. Finds blocks that can only be destroyed with Power Bomb.* I suppose I have no choice. *uses Power Bomb. Alarms blare as temperature climbs.* I have to hurry! *arrives at locked gates as temperature quickly reaches critical* OH, NO! *explosion*. *groans* h-how am I still barely alive?

[@Yahtzee88]

This is by far my favorite 2d metroid. Everything is spot on. The devs should get table seats at Mercury Steam.

[@brenomoura8067]

if you come back after the explosion you will find a hidden energy tank

[@Lauderdizzle]

This was such a great game. Never ended up trying the official remake but I almost don't want to-- this is the 'real' Metroid II remake to me.

[@NoName-oz3gj]

I wish there was a secret exit or something to escape without harm. Scripted Damage is kinda annoying, even though I know about the energy tank back inside. I must admit that this still is a cool escape sequence though, Especially with the tank prototype
