Sonic Heroes: Brutal Grand Metropolis Mod

[@miguelaguilar5115]

Seeing this made me remember how Heroes had a really good balance between speed sections, platforming and combat. It was a really good game

[@megasoniczxx]

Yeah, honestly if they decided to go this route again with more modern mechanics, it could work really well. Only thing i'd say is to have a little less combat in favor of more platforming.

[@ValExp543]

[@Maxshark999]

i could honestly say the same thing about sonic unleashed if the night stages were shorter

[@BossBasher]

@3rd Way there's nothing wrong with a slower paced sonic game. Not every game has to be speed all the time. The issue with heroes outside of the bad controls and repeating levels is that it doesn't flow well. Having to fly and fight damage sponges really just breaks your flow which is what I hated.

[@1Devthedog1]

@tray pendland I totally agree with you on that. Back then I never thought the game was glitchy, just something you had to get use to lol. I loved getting the top score on all the stages for this game

[@MsSlagar]

So, after these years, people finaly able to make a mod for SH, where you can place Enemies, Objects and etc on different positions? That's neat.

Man, you almost set yourself up for death, by leaving your rings behind before the last two or three enemy sets. That being said, I couldn’t blame ya for working up a Team Blast like that when I saw the enemy set down there about 26:55. That aside, I’ve gone through all three of your ‘brutal stage’ videos.

So what is Knuckles actually saying when he’s punching? Because it’s obviously not “shit rock yeah”

[@sonicovertime]

or is he!? lol to be honest idk even know what he's saying. I think it's just a grunt or something. sheeeh

[@Ninetails2000]

It's just Japanese grunting. Dreamcast era Sonic game dubs have a thing about not translating the Japanese voice grunts, so you end up with stuff like Eggman saying "Yosh!," Sonic shouting "Teriaaah!" or, in this case, Knuckles saying "Shu, Ora, YAAH!"

[@transportationuk7656]

Shift Rock Yeah!

[@alanbareiro6806]

Pretty sure he says "shoot".

[@Ninetails2000]

Those robots aren't so intimidating once you realize you can tap the attack button without a direction as Knuckles to do a continuous punching combo that shreds through anything not reinforced against Power types.

[@alanbareiro6806]

I usually let Sonic have all three power cores. Most enemies go down with few hits if not one.

[@SoraDonaldGoofy99]

You need to learn the team blast glitch. Press the attack button and the b button at the exact same time causing the game to flip out and boost your team blast gauge by like a good third.

At a level 3 speed, you can do a Homing Attack near the pole and that will cause you to grab it as well.

I think just the level layout was the E3 version. Things like the objects, cannons, and robots were added in after. There's 4 options for this mod. One is called speed, and I'm guessing that's the closest to the normal e3 version.

Oh yeah, they need to re-make and re-do Sonic R, but also add some new features and equipments. Sonic May be always fastest but other characters can equip to speed up, as good as Sonic. But don’t add any boost-up speed for the fast characters. If they want to balance everything.
