Sonic Robo Blast 2 - Single Player Trailer

I'm sure a lot of you already know about Sonic Robo Blast 2 (or SRB2). If you don't, then... I'm too lazy to explain it, so look at www.srb2.org.

I declare this the official SRB2 Discussion Topic for Green Groove Zone! *shot*

So, how many of you play SRB2, and what do you think of it?

[Solus the Lumpy]

I played it once or twice.
It wasn't that great. Kinda weird. And too hard to figure out where the hell you're supposed to go.

[Ken Shuri]

Greenflower and Techno Hill are aged, and it shows, so it's a bit confusing. But the zones after that are easier to navigate. Besides, the areas are supposed to be open enough to explore. That's part of the point, heh.

I still think it's pretty damn good, but that might be because I've played a number of the mods, too. Then again, that trailer makes it look even more pretty damn good. And that's just the Single-Player So I would expect a healthy amount of pretty damn good-ity

[Ken Shuri]

There's supposed to be a multiplayer trailer in the future, and if it ever gets made I'll post it too.

As for the multiplayer modes, there's:

-Co-op: Play through the Single-Player levels with other people!
-Match: Typical first-person shooter, with a Sonic twist. You use weapon rings to attack.
-CTF: Uses the same system as match, but in a CTF fashion.
-Tag: This, again, uses the Match style of gameplay, but here you try and tag people.
-Hide-and-Seek: A version of tag. Basically the same, except here you hide in an allotted amount of time and cannot move until you are found or the round ends.
-Race: Here you race around on a circuit.
-Classic Race: Instead of being based on who finishes first, this is more focused on who wins the most categories, such as Monitors Broken and Rings Collected. Usually used with Single-Player levels.

There's a set of levels for different gametypes. Match, Tag, and Hide-and-Seek use the stages made for Match. CTF uses its own set of levels. Race has its own set of levels too.

I personally like Hide-and-Seek, Match, and Coop the best.

Finally, a 3D Sonic platformer that doesn't look like it sucks. Although the low-ceilings and wonky depth perception kinda throws you off.

Sega should look into this. =B Moving forward hasn't done them too many favors, moving backwards might not hurt.

[Ken Shuri]

The game's only 12 years old you know. =P

It doesn't have many low-ceiling areas actually, most have plenty of room. And the depth was never really a problem for me.

EDIT: www.srb2.org is back up from maintenence.

[Pickle]

I recall there being Sonic Riders and Invader Zim wads; along with a Ghoul's Forest one, which is admittedly a little less friendly, even if it is really fun

[Ken Shuri]

There were, for version 1.09. When SRB2 got updated to version 2.0, all the old wads ans socs became incompatible. But there's still plenty of great addons available.
