@@Cutzerella03 Rocket Metal is technically a character, as well as the egg robot used in the same cutscene, and the UFO, and they all have moves assigned by default (kind of, it's complicated), but they're all very buggy. Rocket Metal in particular will clip himself out of bounds under certain circumstances. Problem is, fixing them means breaking the attract screen, potentially permanently.
the funny thing is, there _is_ a stand-only character in hftf, being perhaps unsurprisingly death 13 you just don't hear about it much since, like eggman, it's a story mode-only boss character
I think knuckles sidestep getting stronger the more battered he is, is something really cool that fits his character in the games as he can be a bit of a berserker when things get really tough.
If Metal Sonic has a million fans, then I am one of them If Metal Sonic has ten fans, then I am one of them If Metal Sonic has only one fan then that is me If Metal Sonic has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth If the world is against Metal Sonic, then I am against the world WELCOME BACK METAL SONIC
Yoo legal Eggman?? I became rlly interested in the character after the short doc u put out on him I might actually try the game out and play w some friends now LOL
StF For evo now? Wow its finally happening. We've been waiting since forever but I'm glad StF will make it to main stage. It deserves it. One of the greatest games of all history.
Great to see this game getting attention! I hope they add in Rocket Metal soon. He was a favorite of mine and I played as him a LOT in the Arcade romhacks.
It's much much easier. Plus, if you really want to play this game competitively in any way, you will need to be in the server to know about the tournaments and find people to play with either way.
I hear "Sonic The Fighters modding community" and I'm like "uhh?!". Honestly, I didn't think it would happen. It would also be interesting to be able to change the AI of the base game, using basic movements from the competitive mode and making it more competent
part of me feels weird about ketchup damage being removed and metal sonic and mech eggman being custom characters at this point, but I’m excited to see what comes out of this
this is hella nostalgic. i would grind this game in chuck-e-cheese as a child. it's where my love for fighting games started. love that its still being played
Only complaint is that download for the patch is locked behind Discord… which I can no longer go on… for reasons involving internet safety. Happy for all the people who can play it, though.
Yeah I understand its considered anti-competitive or whatever, but at the same time it’s part of the game’s identity and always kept games unpredictable and interesting.
based on the context, i have to wonder if turning it off is common practice for offline tournaments ( such as they are ) played on ps3, and the core of the change is really just achieving parity between online play and the main competitive ruleset alternatively, it might be more of an experimental change than anything, since it lets the entire community test the removal and feel out of it's better, worse, or would perhaps be better implemented as a weakening of ketchup's effects rather than a wholesale removal
Wonder if they made Rocket Metal a Mirror match skin for Metal, or if he's gonna be turned into his own character (he DOES have his own name graphic after all)
What if STF had more playable characters in its original release? As in: Mighty, Ray, Charmy, Vector, Honey, various Eggman and Metal Sonic versions, the background robots, and everyone gets a Super & Hyper Form? And if both Japanese & English voices were available? And alternate story endings if the bad guys win?
Would be cool now that Eggman is playable and has some similar Knuckles properties to him that Honey finally got a more unique moveset and her hearteyes attack back.
Another download holed up in an unarchiveable Discord? Come on, man. Please tell me the devs are smart enough to upload it to file hosts on the clearnet. Some place like github would be great. There's always a risk of these fan patches becoming lost media if the server gets nuked.
there are talks about it. for now, theres still more work to be done to figure out exactly where the game stores stuff and how it works, and to make metal a bit more fair.
I hope a "Nerfed" Super Sonic is made playable eventually. He's the one character we're missing out of the normally playable roster.
Yeaaa :) would be funny if rocket metal was someone playable one day too lol and robo eggman
A super sonic skin would also bang

@@KiraSlith yea it's not something that would happen anytime soon, at most maybe a skin resembling them or something*
Robotnik has had enough and decided to take matters into his own hands...literally.
idk bro, he's kinda like akiyama rn..
into his own feet
We gotta remember that this dude manhandled Starline in the comics. It even looks like the throw here.
*Robotonic
Seeing what Eggman did to Starline in IDW, people should fear the massive potential of Leggman.
People will now know the STANDO POWAH of Leggman.
Dude's considered a power type for good reasons. See also him smashing that ice wall in Lost World for a mainline game example.
Yeah Eggman can throw hands if he so chooses to.
Dr. Roglocknic
having Mechless Eggman be playable is so funny to me. it's like having exclusively a Stand in HFTF
the funny thing is, there _is_ a stand-only character in hftf, being perhaps unsurprisingly death 13
you just don't hear about it much since, like eggman, it's a story mode-only boss character
@@hi-i-am-atan And UNLIKE Eggman, turning him properly playable would be nigh impossible iirc.
@@hi-i-am-atan i think Death 13 was a scrapped character left in the code
@@TheEverythingEnthuiast Death 13 can be fought in HFTF's single player as a secret mid-boss, but there's no way to use him without a hack.
@@dariogonzalez8989 ah
Its really cool that this was made but we've GOT to move away from using discord as a file sharing system and get these files widely distributed.
Agreed. Stuff like this is the only reason I even have a Discord account
It's ridiculous how many communities do this, god forbid mods appear on a search engine 🙄
Like, just put it on gamebanana or something bro
If nothing else for good archiving.
All these files are one tantrum away from just being gone forever unless someone puts them somewhere else
I believe they are trying to make a game banana page for it so hopefully that is done soon but yeah, every comment here still holds true
Legman gaming.
My Leggman is so nasty.
I am the LEG MAN (you know I am)
i'd fr become a legman main
I love how Eggman uses his cloning ray to create more Eggmen
MY OWN CLONE
technically canon too, at least in some continuities
You're an eggman, I'm an eggman, we are all eggmen.
@@microcomputermaster NOW NEITHER OF US WILL BE VIRGINS
I think knuckles sidestep getting stronger the more battered he is, is something really cool that fits his character in the games as he can be a bit of a berserker when things get really tough.
This goes crazy actually, kudos to the StF community for what sounds like a very forward thinking update to the game
Mechless Eggman reminds me of one of the scenes in Sonic OVA where Eggman plays a fighting game as himself.
FINALLY! The Metal curse has been lifted. Now it's time to welcome our messiah, Metal Sonic!
Leggman honestly has so much potential it's not even funny
Eggmanchads, we're coming home...
Let's be real, Eggman doesn't' need mechs, he can break ice walls with his hands
He can topple cars over with his own body!
Love the usage of the network transmission soundtrack. Really underrated
If Metal Sonic has a million fans, then I am one of them
If Metal Sonic has ten fans, then I am one of them
If Metal Sonic has only one fan then that is me
If Metal Sonic has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth
If the world is against Metal Sonic, then I am against the world
WELCOME BACK METAL SONIC
MECHLESS EGGMAN IS TOO POWERFUL WE CANT STOP HIM.
Sonic:hold my chili dog
This eggman pulling the IDW moves
Yoo legal Eggman?? I became rlly interested in the character after the short doc u put out on him I might actually try the game out and play w some friends now LOL
two legal eggmans!
This is gonna be fun
RUclips random suggested this and now I know Sonic the Fighters has tournaments, communities, and a 2024 balance patch.
thank you legman you saved my marriage
StF For evo now? Wow its finally happening. We've been waiting since forever but I'm glad StF will make it to main stage. It deserves it. One of the greatest games of all history.
Finally i can play as legman lets gooooooo
I wonder if Honey could get a rework, like adding cut moves and making her function more like her Fighting Vipers counterpart
Omg! Yes! Please!
Eggman just throwing hands is too fun, I can't
When custom skins become a possibility, they better add Egg Robo on the cloning device for Eggman dittos.
I'd love to see a Sega Saturn port of this game made by fans one day. Would fit so much, especially alongside Fighters Megamix!
Can't wait for them to mod Shadow in the game
And make him slightly taller, since he’s modern!
Let's gooo sonic the fighters!! Cutter is happy
I cant wait for people to go as far as to modding completely new movesets into this game
Great to see this game getting attention! I hope they add in Rocket Metal soon. He was a favorite of mine and I played as him a LOT in the Arcade romhacks.
Am I missing something? Why are so many projects locking themselves behind Discords nowadays?
Zoomers can't internet correctly.
It's much much easier. Plus, if you really want to play this game competitively in any way, you will need to be in the server to know about the tournaments and find people to play with either way.
in addition to the above two, people who do passion projects for fairly obscure 28yo games tend to be broke as shit
it was developed on the discord server. I don’t think it’s too deep.
@@hi-i-am-atanThe Internet Archive is free.
I will only play this game if Rocket Metal becomes a thing it is one of my favourite designs
Perhaps that's Metal's mirror match skin, the way other unused model data was used for the Eggmen mirror skins?
I hope that in the future we get other classic characters like Mighty, Ray, Vector and Charmy
Bro your videos are so good at explaining all of this..SUCH INCREDIBLE SONIC THE FIGHTERS LORE
Cant wait to see mighty and ray joining
Dr. Legman
I’d love to see more characters added to the game in the future with this patch! Maybe the rest of the Chaotix for example?
I didn't know there was an entire community for Sonic The Fighters! Awesome!
Thanks for making this video, I never knew about this!
3:09 made me jump yo I thought someone behind me called me😭
Hype ass update though
I hear "Sonic The Fighters modding community" and I'm like "uhh?!". Honestly, I didn't think it would happen. It would also be interesting to be able to change the AI of the base game, using basic movements from the competitive mode and making it more competent

this is hella nostalgic. i would grind this game in chuck-e-cheese as a child. it's where my love for fighting games started. love that its still being played
Leggman is the greatest thing I have ever witnessed
Sonic The Fighters: Champion Edition
Got to wonder why he bothers with all the machinery when Eggman's perfectly capable of holding his own in a 1-v-1.
Only complaint is that download for the patch is locked behind Discord… which I can no longer go on… for reasons involving internet safety.
Happy for all the people who can play it, though.
I hope Eggman's Robot becomes a playable character I kinda like his design
yooo new stf video !!! i've been super into this game recently. really loving these
okay so rocket metal when
Love the choice of music
mechless eggman should be called Robotnik
I always wanted to see a breakdown on metal Sonic. psycho crusher looks really cool and I wanted to understand what he does
wusstunes you've aided in changing this game forever, thank u
Now we need the rest of the hidden characters
Should be cool if the mod had more characters, like Shadow for example...
Your literally the Asumsaus of Sonic the Fighters.
*L E G M A N*
If Mechless Eggman is possible, I hope they can make Rocket Metal playable as well (though I don't know what you'd do with him?)
Why, a knuckles clone, of course :)
Eggman throwing hands let's goo
I would love to see them put in “classic” versions of newer characters, I’d love to see someone like Blaze or Vector rocking up in the ring.
idk how to feel about Ketchup removal, it's kind of a whole part of the game
Yeah I understand its considered anti-competitive or whatever, but at the same time it’s part of the game’s identity and always kept games unpredictable and interesting.
based on the context, i have to wonder if turning it off is common practice for offline tournaments ( such as they are ) played on ps3, and the core of the change is really just achieving parity between online play and the main competitive ruleset
alternatively, it might be more of an experimental change than anything, since it lets the entire community test the removal and feel out of it's better, worse, or would perhaps be better implemented as a weakening of ketchup's effects rather than a wholesale removal
I mean you could already turn it off before in the past anyway in offline matches so it's not that important to the game anyway
It was already a toggle on the Arcade version anyways, by changing the damage option to Real.
Wonder if they made Rocket Metal a Mirror match skin for Metal, or if he's gonna be turned into his own character (he DOES have his own name graphic after all)
Does anyone else think of Street Tech Formula when they hear STF?
Legal mechless eggman?
Lesssgoooo
now we need a rocket metal skin
I hope metal's alt is rocket metal
Guess we shouldn’t…skip legman day 😂
All we waiting on is rocket metal
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NEW WUSSTUNES JUST DROPPED!
Legman and eggman w. Metal as well.
It would be really cool to have a shadow skin for sonic or maybe create a whole new character for shadow
This is so hype!! What an accomplishment! Long live Sonic the Fighters!
I may actually try this out. I hope it isn't too hard to run.
Alright, thats the last thing holding me up from giving this game a shot patched out. Time to get into this game.
They turned off ketchup but not mustard???? 💀
I bet Leggman made this, himself.
I'm glad to see, which update characters banned lol.
That is joke. I hope this content on this game. Enjoyed all them to playing this game
I give it till the end of the year till Shadow and Rouge gets modded in.
omg i love little legman
Nice Network Transmission music
Wish someone would do this to fighting vipers' ps3 version, too. Big Mahler is a lot of fun.
Eggman got lil angi
What if STF had more playable characters in its original release? As in: Mighty, Ray, Charmy, Vector, Honey, various Eggman and Metal Sonic versions, the background robots, and everyone gets a Super & Hyper Form? And if both Japanese & English voices were available? And alternate story endings if the bad guys win?
Would be cool now that Eggman is playable and has some similar Knuckles properties to him that Honey finally got a more unique moveset and her hearteyes attack back.
Still no Pengo from the arcade of the same name, there is a scrapped 3d model of him within the original game's data
Another download holed up in an unarchiveable Discord? Come on, man. Please tell me the devs are smart enough to upload it to file hosts on the clearnet. Some place like github would be great. There's always a risk of these fan patches becoming lost media if the server gets nuked.
Based Yousuke Yasui music
mech man and leg man 🥶
Holy shit _Leggman_
Awesome
this is so awesoe...
Oh yeah they had an arcade version of this mod at CEO. Good Times Good Times…
praying for a mac port
Ok, if catch up is gone, I'm actually super interested. That was the main thing I disliked about the game.
legman sweep
Honestly they should make a remaster of the game with new characters like shadow etc haha.
Cool stuff.
Go Legman!
Would it be possible at some point to mod in custom fighters? This game is super cool and it would be sick to have an extended roster!
there are talks about it. for now, theres still more work to be done to figure out exactly where the game stores stuff and how it works, and to make metal a bit more fair.
