Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2
« on: Feb 26 2011, 11:52 PM »
http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=151338

According to that link, it's already in development. They're taking a lot of Episode 1's complaints into consideration, and are trying to improve upon those flaws in Episode 2. Aside from "OMG, GREEN EYES!", the main issue that many people (including myself) had with the first episode, was the physics. While they didn't necessarily make the game entirely unplayable like many people have claimed, I still think they could have used some work. Another issue is the lack of new content, which is apparently going to be featured in Episode 2.

Buy me a coffee!

dreams are as portals, flat visions of misty places, fragments bound below my surface.
but i can write dreams, they flow from me, inscribed yet now unbound. i touch them, and they are real....and they are real.

You just might be onto something, Yerix. In fact, there's something about the Sonic CD launch trailer that caught my (and other peoples') attention:


That "something", of course, is the HD "Future" sign, which is in the exact same graphical style as Sonic 4: Episode I. Many people have speculated that this might be a possible hint/foreshadowing of Episode II. After all, the other trailers (as well as the Metal Sonic silhouette in Episode I's ending) have indicated that they're trying to connect Sonic CD and Sonic 4 together. Plus, Ken Balough did say, at one point, that he'll be "more at liberty to talk about it" once the Sonic CD remake launches.

Since they apparently won't be using the Retro engine for Episode II, then here's hoping they use the Generations (3DS) Classic engine, since that's the next best thing. It would also be nice if Classic Sonic was in it, but I won't hold my breath for that one, since, for some reason, they decided that using Modern Sonic for this type of game was a better idea.

take shelter everyone, the next shitstorm brews...apperently little to nothing is to change between ep1 and ep2...if anything, they'e straight up copypasted ep1's physics into ep2's with little to no tweaks instead of adapting classic sonic's 3DS generations physics.
for once dimps does something right and then they go ahead and mess up...hopefully this is just a not-final build

Oh, dear God. Please tell me they're joking. I mean, honestly. Give me a break. After doing such an awesome job with the physics in the 3DS version of Sonic Generations, they decide to go and re-use the exact same (unaltered) engine from the first game, despite everyone's complaints about the physics? What are they thinking? Sure, I actually had my share of fun playing Episode I (to a certain extent), but there was just no denying the fact that the physics were in need of some serious work.

oh, wait a minute:
http://www.tssznews.com/2011/12/21/source-sonic-4-episode-ii-considerably-improved/
this claims that:
-the physics surpass that of classic sonic's in generations
-no "glossy" feel
-musical direction the same as ep1

Oh, good. Assuming that this source is more reliable/credible than the other one, then that's a relief.

Quote
-the physics surpass that of classic sonic's in generations
While it's a safe bet that the physics have indeed in improved from Episode I's, they're probably exaggerating a bit when they say that it's better than Classic Sonic's in Generations. But then again, I guess it depends on which version they're talking about. The console version's physics weren't bad, but at the same time, they weren't a hundred percent accurate to the Genesis games. The 3DS version's physics, on the other hand, were surprisingly better than the console version, which is ironic, considering the fact that DIMPS was the developer. Hmm, but then again, they are the ones responsible for Sonic Advance 1, which had physics that were pretty much the same as the 16-bit games.

Quote
-musical direction the same as ep1
Eh, that's fine with me. I don't know about anyone else, but I actually liked the soundtrack in Sonic 4: Episode I, and I honestly don't understand all the hate for it. I will admit that some of the synths are a tad high-pitched (particularly in Splash Hill), but I don't think they were enough to ruin the entire soundtrack like many people say.

So, the Sonic 4: Episode II trailer has been revealed today. Even though there was no gameplay shown, Balough did give out some specific information, like Tails being playable, which makes this the first console game (not counting Sonic & the Black Knight or Sonic Wildfire/Secret Ring's Party Mode) where someone other than Sonic was playable since Sonic 2006. Also, he said that the game is using a different physics engine, and that all the problems people had with the first one are getting addressed.

While a WiiWare release would have been nice, I think that just goes to show that Episode II is going to have capabilities that are beyond the Wii's limitations, but of course, there are tons of Nintendo fanboys out there who fail to grasp that concept, and will rage about it regardless. Some of them even go so far as to claim that "Sega hates Nintendo" for not releasing a Sonic game or two on the Wii. It's kind of hilarious, actually.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not accusing you of being a Nintendo fanboy, I'm talking about people I've seen at other sites, like here, for instance (and in the comments section of the Retro article I posted).
