MEGA MAN 11 Demo: Block Man (testing out customised controls)
Did you know the game menu has customisable control options?
It's possible to map Slide to a single button and have rapid fire as a unique command.
This playthrough has Slide mapped to R (R1/RB) and Rapid Firing to A (Circle/B).
This does remove Power Gear (originally R) but I wanted to experiment a more comfortable control setup.
The combination of Speed Gear and Rapid Mega Buster is VERY good against the mid-bosses in particular.
Depending on the full game's weapon order, I'll probably set weapon change to one button and use the right stick to quickly select or cancel. Ideally, you want Impact Man's weapon after pushing the weapon select button at least once, this is important for Rush Coil jumping.
Oh and before you say it in the comments:
YES you can increase the distance of Impact Man's weapon when using Power Gear such as the part at 1:40 but I did not use it because I wanted the gear meter at 0% to take out the 2nd mid-boss.
