Ravior_Stygian Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 To be honest, I don't really have very many complaints for Star Fox 64. Sure, it's almost way to easy now, but it's still fun, and it's a timeless classic. However, there's something that really bugs me, and it's that you can't go through every level in one go to get the full story. For example: Why can't we go through Venom 1 and still fight Star Wolf? Here's how I would map it, if there was such a mode: Corneria -> Meteo -> Fichina -> Sector Y -> Katina -> Solar -> Aquas -> Sector X -> Macbeth/Titania -> Zoness - > Sector Z -> Area 6 -> Bolse (Possibly) -> Venom 1 and 2 -> Andross battle Of course, with such a mode certain things would have to be changed, such as Fox never saying "We're heading to Aquas," or the warp points not appearing. I've always wanted to go through the whole story by going through every level in one go. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygun81 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Supposedly the canon of Star Fox 64 requires Fox to somehow fly through all the levels as no route is deemed to be the canon route. I think route 11 from the player's guide (Ca-Me-Fo-So-Ma-A6-Ve) is the most canon because you encounter Star Wolf and don't run into Bill or Katt, and it leads the the canon ending of the game. But in terms of changing the game to play like that, if that was done, a lot of replay value would be lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furygun81 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) Here's how I would map it, if there was such a mode: Corneria -> Meteo -> Fichina -> Sector Y -> Katina -> Solar -> Aquas -> Sector X -> Macbeth/Titania -> Zoness - > Sector Z -> Area 6 -> Bolse (Possibly) -> Venom 1 and 2 -> Andross battle Apparently the only reason Star Fox fly through Solar is to sneak up on Macbeth, so I think Solar should be moved to before Macbeth, but otherwise that's a reasonable map. EDIT: Also you need to think about the secret exits. What happens if you do hit all 8 switches on Macbeth and what happens if you don't? Do you make it a requirement or you lose etc? What about the levels with warps, do you leave them in or remove them entirely? Edited October 1, 2011 by Furygun81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravior_Stygian Posted October 1, 2011 Author Share Posted October 1, 2011 I thought they were going to Solar to destroy the bio weapon. EDIT: Also you need to think about the secret exits.

What about the levels with warps, do you leave them in or remove them entirely? I said there would have to be some changes. Anything that would contradict that mode would have to be removed or altered. Actually, a level select would probably be just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygun81 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I thought they were going to Solar to destroy the bio weapon. I guess as they were about to launch over there the Great Fox's scanners got close enough to detect one of Andross' bioweapons, this is why they skimmed along the surface instead of flying a safe distance above the planet. I said there would have to be some changes. Anything that would contradict that mode would have to be removed or altered. You could gain tons of extra points if you do get the 'secret' exit but it still leads to the same area. So if you blow up all the searchlights at the end of Zoness you get a random HIT +20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravior_Stygian Posted October 1, 2011 Author Share Posted October 1, 2011 Yeah things like that could just add to extra score. By the way, would it make sense to have Bolse after Area 6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygun81 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Well, to have Bolse after Area 6 I guess instead of Venom in the background of A6, you could have the Bolse satellite, and then Bolse could be 'the last line of defense'. Star Wolf couldn't show up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Wolf couldn't show up though. Yeah that would be saved for Venom 2, which would come after Venom 1. Really I hate how that whole epic level is skipped if you want to get the "canon" ending. That's why I wish a mode like this existed. It would make the battle with Andross more epic because you went through more of a struggle to reach him. It also makes the final shot of the game more epic as well. I really hope someone makes a mod of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furygun81 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Who knows, if enough people bug Nintendo they might make it DLC for Star Fox 64 3D (along with online functionality if they do release DLC ) but the chances of DLC seem very slim indeed.
