i say a gundam mech http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/7/gundam00byelite5472png.jpg/

Nice! However,i still prefer knights with cape and shield or even a transformer-like mecha.

Guess I'll go into a bit more detail on mine, now that I can post links.

Taking cue from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Dio Brando's ZA WARUDO combo is semi notable and could make a cool attack. Time Stop could be a Stun move, Knives...could be there somehow (back arm maybe?). Front arm could be the Punching.

One I think would be cool is, a Knight. Several suggested this before me, but this is how I'd like to see it (or something with a similar theme).

Silver Chariot
Basically something thin, light and with a fast moving sword. Not sure what the shoulders would be really but the rapid sword-stabbing is what matters.

Next, something with a lot of punching.
Inspirations: The World and in action... Typical JoJo Punch Spamming
That attack itself would be a nice move I think.


Lastly, this other Stand, Tusk Act 4, has an interesting look once could draw some inspiration from.



Rivale -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/4/2012 9:09:01)

I guess the Artemis or the Fenrir look like knights.
Whenever 'military mecha' comes in my head Break Blade's the first thing that comes in.



Thieflord12 -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/4/2012 12:04:22)

how about a clock-word time manipuation based mecha? or if they dont already have it a derp-mech ! or howabout one that uses wormholes to pull out weapons !



Hoggs Bison -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/4/2012 19:49:30)

^

Already in the game, all of them.

hey i go for the shs mecha. shs all the way!!!



Gamemastersam -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/6/2012 19:52:59)

If the staff have any remaining care for MQ, they wont have it sued by putting a gundam in the game. It doesnt take a fool to know that they are the same thing with different worlds and names. Its actually kinda annoying to keep hearing suggestions to use other peoples work in a thread made to HELP MQ. And saying Gundam mech is basically saying mech mech or gundam gundam



EinhanderX01 -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/6/2012 21:59:48)

To be fair, if a "Gundam" or other iconic mech was put in-game, it'd be at most, a parody or homage, which is what MQ already does, more or less.

Such as the Automorph is to Optimus Prime of Transformers, and the Dharmahp is to the Apharmd of Virtual On.

Again, some of the ideas aren't bad; but some are better suited to April Fool's parodies (such as Megas, Mazinkaiser SKL, or Gurren Lagan). Mechs from Gundam, Macross (or the inferior Robotech), Mechwarrior, and Full Metal Panic are reasonable, as all of them tend to have a more down-to-earth aesthetic.

Oddly enough AutoMorph doesn't have a single reference to Optimus Prime. What I get for being rude xD

Though TransFormers has a HUGE character pool, there's a lot they could take from it if they wanted to.



EinhanderX01 -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/6/2012 22:16:23)

The name "Optimal Automorph" as one of the level versions comes to mind. Or the fact that Automorph could be a play on Autobot. But yes, there could be any number of transformable machines it could have parodied, not necessarily Optimus.



Glais -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/6/2012 22:18:47)

Oh right.

Kinda funny they got a HeadMasters reference in there. Didn't expect anything that obscure.



Gamemastersam -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/6/2012 22:47:28)

I really hope that there are no silly mechs in the SCMM SCEM. Silly mecha like the derpmachine is probably something that keeps some people from joining. theyd probably think its stupid.



Glais -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 2:05:33)

Exact reason my brother doesn't play actually.



Hoggs Bison -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 9:38:03)

I have no problem with silly mechas, it puts comedy relief into the game, and let's face it, almost ALL games have comedic relief.
If you thought Derpmachine was stupid, you're obviously forgetting what day it was released on. There's no reason to NOT include silly mechas in the game.

What do you have against silly mechas?



Knightron2234 -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 9:53:25)

A little is fine. Occasionally is acceptable. Just not too often or too much that it crosses the line.

Without silly stuff, the game will not be fun.

With too much silly stuff, the game will be stupid.

That's why it has to maintain a balance.

Not true. Heres a list of games with little to no comedic relief.

  • Infamous
  • Silent Hill
  • Dead Space
  • Need For Speed
  • Modern Warfare
  • Red Dead Redemption
  • Batman
  • Skyrim


I did not find any of these games comical at all. Mostly depressing, sad, pshycotic, or just actiony.

Im not forgetting its release date. But the derpmachine is just stupid. The clown was good. My worst MQ mistake was selling it. But the derpmachine is just overboard. And silly mecha DEFINITLY have nothing to do with the SCEM. They are doing good with the SCEM now. Making it silly would ruin it.

Heres a reason. Their lame. And a mecha shooting food out of its mouth to bloat the enemy is just idiotic. A mecha cannot be made fat with food. as it is made of metal. And the derpmachine walks Like its constipated, mentally challenged and has a broken leg all at the same time. If the MQ ad i saw in 2008 had a silly mecha, i would have never clicked it.

quote:

I beg to differ. i find the dharmy more fun than all the silly mecha combined.



forumlogin -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 14:29:51)

The occasional silly mecha is fine, but it is better to leave them out of the SCMM. They're just not made to be silly.

Derpmachine is goofy, that's the point.
Loosen up Sam, silly mechas DON'T really turn people off, I don't even know why you would think that.



Red Komet -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 16:14:37)

Maybe a Geara Zulu based mech

Thats 1 silly SCMM. All the rest have the same military tone. And i for one like it that way. Another silly mecha would ruin the SCMMs.

I wonder why this game isnt realistic... Mabye because silly mecha?

My brother doesnt play because of silly mechas. My friends dont play because of silly mecha. Most are just plain stupid.




stealthwings -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 16:47:12)

And many people only play because of silly mecha.

I would prefer serious mecha, but that is just my opinion.

@Hoggs
BC at least had some kind of semblance of seriousness, a chainsaw and a shotgun are both very serious things.



Gamemastersam -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 16:55:43)

I have nothing against silly mecha themselves. just against silly mecha in the SCMM or in ads.



skadidlybop -> RE: =MQ= Art Style for Next "SCMM" - We Call Them SCEM Now! (8/7/2012 22:34:21)

Hows'about steve skysplitter themed mech?
For all those people who like silly mechs.
Everyone enjoyed steve skysplitter.
I mean who doesn't like steve skysplitter.
He's one of the most beloved mechs in the entire game.
Stevey you so silly with all those skysplitting fists of yours.
We could have another SCEM with a bunch of feet, that could be called Gordon Grounddivider.
