- Man... If you thought this level was already a nuisance, try the Super Hard version.
This stage has somewhat different. Elements from other teams' version of this stage are used here (like more robots guarding switches). I managed to use the Light Speed Attack and skip a switch halfway through. There's also a bunch of Hammer Robots to knock out with E-2000s as well. Even at the very end.
Loosing a life here is as easy as loosing concentration for a single moment. It may not look hard, but you can't be easygoing or you will fall. They even put the E-Series robots on some of the rails!
Also, I think the laser cannons fire a bit faster than normal, but maybe that's just me.
Final Fortress
87640 Points
020 Rings (Heh crap...)
Note that you can unlock this mode by collecting all 120 Emblems and scoring an 'A' Rank on every mission.
Knuckles: SHIIIIT! SHIIIIT RAWRRR!
Alex DeMayne YEAH...
And a piñata at the end
Third level speed = Automatic wind effect when homing attack is used, no need to use the tornado move to spin on bars.
Tails: "Leave it to me!"
Knuckles: "Okay."
Sonic: "Be careful not to fall!"
Knuckles: "GOT IT."
I love the conversation with Knuckles and Tails at 5:00. It was cute.
All Teams Follow the same stage order. From where you are:
Hang Castle → Mystic Mansion → ROBOT STORM
Egg Fleet → Final Fortress → Egg Emperor
I don't remember what Chaotix's missions are but they usually involve getting to the end.
Tails Announcement: Watch out for large laser blasts from those cannons!
Excellent gameplay, you have a good understanding of this game's systems. I really want a Sonic Heroes 2 with slightly tighter control/camera and some glitchfixes. This game was a blast. AND THAT SOUNDTRACK!
I would be thinking that it's more of a "Oh shi- they SOMEHOW took over my fleet! But with the press of a button...!"
Except for the part where the antagonists put the (giant) switch on the actual ship and not in a remote control on their hands. Seriously, the heroes always pull off self-destruct scenarios a hell of a lot better than most villains.
I love this game...i Picked it up the other day and i beat the game completely (A's and all) in like 20 hours or so.
I loved sonic heroes along with SA1 and 2
Lol "I'll punch this thing with my fists!"
No, duh... Knuckles, sometimes I worry about you...
That's right. Your partners will automatically use homing attack any foes that is nearby while n Power Formation.
This is very useful because those characters' levels are used in the attack. So if Sonic is Level 3, he can remove a shield automatically, making it possible for knuckles to quickly destroy a lot of robots.
HAAAA Tails actually mentions Super Hard mode! XD
I cut it short with a program because we have seen that blast about 2,500 times already...
The timer stops anyway.
Trust me, you're not the only one to ask about it.
The Hint Ring in Sea Side Hill explains this, but it's in such an opaque manner that most people don't get it.
Heh heh. About that...
I really couldn't be bothered to find any more lines for Tails at that point. I mean with all the Hint Rings available, it would take about a day to get them all if you were focused.
I really need to come up with a Sonic Heroes FAQ or something lol.
After Sonic Overdrive, Sonic can use the Light Speed Attack for 10 seconds (Red part of the Team Blast Gauge). You jump near an enemy and the "B" button will appear. This is the prompt to start the attack.
Sonic happens to shout "Blast Away!" when you use the Light Speed Attack.
Heh, as always, what looks easy tends to be far from it.
...but if I didn't go this fast, I would have had to split the video into two parts... that's not fun.
It's "Blast Away!". The Team Blast Gauge fills when you defeat robots, collect rings and use your attacks. After using "Sonic Overdrive" (Team Blast), Sonic may then use the Light Speed Attack foe 10 seconds afterwards. He also says "Blast Away" when you use this attack.
2:43 - if that were me I would've fell
It is, if you hit it at the right time. I was trying to by-pass it's shield by using the Tornado to send it off balance but it wasn't quite working. Thundershoot might have a slight chance of stunning it but this doesn't seem to happen very often (with that shield anyway).
Once those robots put up their shield, you can't hurt them without a special attack (blast) or until they put it down. They won't put it down unless you stop attacking them either.
Hah hah. You can't look at sound! Well, not that easily. But I added voice clips. Why... because I could... pretty much.
Yep... I stopped life loss at around Grand Metropolis.
Because the videos later on were long enough without having to retrace an entire section of the level again.
But 5 of those guys? Well if the TB was charged, that would be one loud explosion. Then 2,500 extra points for the cores they dropped. And 1,000 each one of those robots destroyed.
It's official. Every single video, people ask how to get this mode. What you have to do is A-rank all 141 scenarios in challenge mode.
That was the Light Speed attack. You can do that right After using your Sonic Overdrive for 10 seconds. It insta-kills all normal enemies and does heavy damage to strong ones.
Yeah, I know. I drop them in the dumbest method possible...
You can somewhat control Thundershoot a bit, but it's quite the annoyance to position properly because of the way it arcs while turning. Especially when you are trying to hit targets.
Sonic: It's covered by dark clouds now.
Knuckles: You think you can handle it, Tails?
Tails: I'm not scared...much!
Never heard that exchange in Normal Mode! Why? Is it supposed to, but a glitch prevents it from doing so?
I believe that would be an accurate judgment of the difficulty. What you had to do in order to unlock this mode is harder than actually playing the mode. So if you were cunning enough to even get 141 A-ranks-some of which required mastery of the game, then you probably won't have that much difficulty at all considering how familiar you'd be with the stages now.
The minor to major changes (like boosting rail effects, extra light dashes, obstinate placement of spiked balls etc.) are a added spin.
This "extra attack" appears to be the most elusive trick in the game since so many people don't know about it.
Jump and press B (or whatever the action button is) near an enemy to use the Light Speed Attack. This can only be used within 10 seconds after "Sonic Overdrive."
This is known as the Light Speed Attack. You can use this after performing "Sonic Overdrive" (Team Blast for Sonic).
When there is energy remaining in the guage, jump and press B/X/Square (whatever the action button is) to launch Sonic into enemies. LSA (Light Speed Attack) destroys enemies/lesser robots or objects and does heavy damage to big ones.
The atack can auto-cancel if the target is to far away, or you press B again, especially if you ever get stuck.
Super Hard Mode is unlocked with 141 A-ranks.
Everything non-gameplay (Like transitions and other stuff) is done with Video-editing programs like Ulead Video Studio.
Tails: "Leave it to- Let's go- WHEE!"
0:18 This must Eggman's headquarters!
For the next 10 seconds after using Sonic Overdrive (Team Blast), Sonic gains access to the Light Speed attack. I used it there as a Robot on the upper level can be targeted, letting me skip all the way above.
The E-2000 Robots are only slightly affected by the tornado. Normally, it flings them up into the air. Aerial enemies will wobble, slightly loosing balance when you use the Blue Tornado on them.
Any colour lasers are harmful to the touch, unless you are attacking beside them. So Triangle Jump does not protect you in any way.
It could be. The reason really is unknown. You can bounce of enemies with the bottom-half of the attack until he hits the ground, but the initial jump just leaves him wide open when it starts. It usually only happens if you're too close to a foe.
It could be the same reasoning that when a power character has both teammates in hands/shoulders/mouth and takes damage, it's blocked. But this "block" will still cost you a barrier and even get you hit again right afterwards. So odd.
2 Things: Points and Time.
Most missions will want you to score a certain amount of points in order to rank A. 40, 50 or 60 thousands points are usually numbers. I recommend finishing the stage without dying.
For missions where score is NOT recorded (Like Team Dark Extra or Team/Boss Battles), then it's based on how fast you complete them. So speed is the key.
Not quite.
When you clear the story, you can select the section of the story to play from. Super Hard Mode follows the same stage order minus Battles and bosses. The stages in the mode have been re-arranged to include other enemies and take parts from other version of the levels (especially Team Dark).
I was a little late on this one.
Rocket Accel functions with a teammate lining up behind Sonic/Shadow and the thrusting him forward. If you are some unstable ground and the teammate misses the push (which can happen very often by the way), you are stuck rolling and will most likely do a regular kick.
If you hold the B button and wait until the Speed character says "Ready?", it will work a lot more often (of course it is slower in general)
I found that there's a faster way to take out those red robot things... I mean the ones that actually look threatening and float in mid-air, not the round, fat ones. If you triangle jump back and forth between the walls (if there are any) at that robot, Sonic or whatever team leader you're using (minus Amy, because she can't triangle jump) will hit that robot repetitively. That robot has one heck of a time defending itself from that, and gets destroyed quickly.
Well I don't really know you all that much. Perhaps after more time (and more communication) this will be possible.
Not to be harsh, but that's the way I do it.
Sonic: WHAT!?
Knuckles: This is unforgiveable Eggman...I hate it
LOL eggman locked up the finish at the end
Nice Vid BTW
i completed T sonic's story today i also wasted ALOT of lives but this.... this is something else!!
Yeah, thanks for asking this on multiple videos at the same time. You could have watched the first video where I explained this but no...
All 'A's
your good! whenever i would play this i would always go in flying mode xP
Falling off... oh hell yeah. In fact, that part where you get thrown into the air, then hit springs off camera ("Woah!") I swear I was going to fall down there. I missed the pole but still managed to get back.
This level IS long AND hard. I think my stock lives dropped about 30 here.
Oh, this mode doesn't f*ck around. When trying this mode, I bet the game's like, "You beat the whole game, welcome to HELL!"
What is up with that tone 5:51 "I've got it!"?
That almost sounds like it's from Shadow.
I know
It sounds like sonic.
Nope its knuckles alright
They should've done it so you can play as any team in this game. Team Roses stages might actually be challenging in Super Hard Mode. XD
Okay, I'll explain this as it happens fairly often.
When you use Knuckles' punch combo at any level higher than 0, Step 3 of the combo has him launching into a ground slam. He is vulnerable to damage when he lifts up before smashing the ground. The moment Knuckles jumped upwards, he touched the hammer while at the same time at destroying the robot. So it looks as if I was hit by the robot exploding.
You have to use the launch away from enemies. Knuckles' top-half of the attack is unprotected.
You play through this mode as only Team Sonic.
Also they cut your stock and reset your life count to 4 when you start it. So you have to put on some bracers for this one.
Heh hah! I tried doing something with Tails' lines but I screwed up a bit.
Ah yes. They can be tough. Especially where you have to find all 20 Chips.
Points are key for those guys so It's a combination of scoring and moving fast.
Hmm... oh right. Maybe I'll start using other teams. I still haven't Time attacked all of the regular stages yet so there still that.
Oh and Metal Madness.
When you start the last Rail section (Tails talks about 1, 2, 3, 4 laser cannons), you try to gain enough speed to avoid the single shots while switching rails to the left.
You are supposed to keep your momentum so that when you get to the big laser cannon, you will rail past it before it fires. If you can't get past it, try to fly over it using Fly Formation. Of course, I haven't tried that so it may or may not work at all.
Half-Carelessness, half-a-second too late pressing the B Button.
As long as it doesn't get me killed.
Thanks I am now because of your advice cleared all A-rank in team hero:-
Seaside hill+extra mission
Ocean Palace+extra mission
Egg hawk
Grand metroplis+extra mission
Power Plant+extra mission
Team Rose
Thank you very very very much
"This must Eggaman's headquarters!"
Wow... I never noticed this one before. Geez, who typed up the script I wonder?
I know, I just felt like it... heh heh.
I have gotten all the emblems for adventure 1 and 2 as well, but Dang... I'm going to have to recover these games. It's been so long ago.
Especially for Sonic Adventure where it was possible to miss collecting an Emblem. Yikes.
I can only imagine super hard mode with team chaotix or team dark.
Well you can still go back to challenge mode and set new personal bests. You can also play Vs. Matches as well, but after you finish it, there isn't anything more collecting-wise.
But when I had beat it, it didn't stop me from racking up 80+ hours into the same completed file.
as many flaws as this game had, it made you feel AWESOME when you beat this level
We need a HD version
Innit
I wonder what it would be like if Eggman equipped his entire Egg-army with stone shields and machine guns....
Beat ALL stages with an A ranking. I mean all.
You need 141 A's to unlock it.
dude... i CANT do that! xD i cant even get the last chaos emerald... man you rock at sonic heroes!
wow u are amazingly good, u cleared this stage with minimum effort, well done
Team dark has a lot of enemies. You might want to slow down a little bit and destroy them.
Team Rose is on easy mode. With half-stages they are capable of getting the best Time Bonus, which is 50,000 points (just like the old sonic games). Try beating their levels fast and get used to their moves.
Chaotix requires memorization. Finding the objects doesn't always turn out the way you need it to.
flying fortress is my favorate level cos it has cool music and the level is in a storm!
Huh... so that's how it works? I always wondered if the Power Core selection was random. But it is based on who defeated the 5 enemies. Well... somewhat.
I never tested to see this, but I should give it a shot sometime. Where does it say that, by the way?
Thanks bro u inspired me to try and unlock super hard mode
one of the best (if not the best ) sonic game ever !
Imagine Sonic Heroes 10TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY For: Ipad, Ipod, Iphone and Android this year
Team Sonic is the only one you can use in Super Hard Mode.
He's saying "SHEN-RA!!" Which is from some fighting game, I think.
Wow. I thought someone would say I suck at holding rings...
Chatoix would have trouble as Espio can't use the light dash. The mode makes extensive use of light dashing over pits.
Ah I loved the voices of Sonic and Knuckles in this.
It's Rocket Accel. It's quite self-explanitory.
You can hold B to ready up your Teammates first.
Can't stop watching it... Speeeeeeeed +.+
Alright. Now this is getting out of hand
In the future I'm going to have to bypass Knucle's first attack phrase. It is getting really anoying have people going "Kuckles keeps saying SHIT RA!/ROCKS" etc.
Whoever said this game sucked is being too harsh. Despite all the flaws this game is fun. Part of the reason I wanted to get good at the game, because it can get crazy.
...lol I'm still laughing at how I went for the suicidal 1UP near the end of the level.
You are quite welcome.
At 7:31 the thing the rail is over if you jump on it you will find a 1 up or an invncible
The playing this level is A MONSTER
knuckles is rly saying "shik ara" at least, thatz wat it sounds like
I think some of the lines have different trigger points. If you move fast enough, some of the dialogue may be be skipped.
Its like knux is yaying "shit!" but we all know hes saying "Chip!" for some reason lul!
First time I tried the Super Hard (Today :D), I did it to the 3 altars of Mystic Mansion.
Yerg... that won't be happening for awhile lol.
I can't even estimate at this point but it's another "To Do" list entry.
i think his voice actor accidentally said the S-word during recording and Sega decided that people wouldn't pay that much attention to the word
You know what... I'm not too sure. I never really even though about where those 21 come from.
Ah, thanks for the info, i was trying to get how to do this, i did it once but then i didn't look to see what i was pressing, so it was like a huge mystery to me
if i remember correctly there's a cheat where u can fill up the team blast gauge quickly. i think it was something like switching 2 formation quickly or something like that
I have never seen the tornado move have this much trouble working.
You got that right.
I think they'd feel right at home. I want to try it, but I need to find the code that forces Team Dark on the field. I've seen someone else do it, but their use of Moonjump, automatic always Level 3 and general suckage leave much to be desired.
Note to self:
When building an Indestructible floating fortress, buy snakes to eat the hedgehog :P
THIS is Super Hard Mode? It's harder than normal, but this is still easy.
when i play sonic heroes in front of my mom she always says,"that knukles guy is anoying turn it down!"
