Stupid hint system

2004-12-12 11:01:55 am

I'm too lazy to turn the damn thing off, but I started a new file to get up to the WSA to try the kip dash, just beat chykkia, and the damn thing is still telling me about the save startion right at the start of the game down where the dark missle trooper is. lordy its annoying.

lol yea. and it was just just as anoying in prime 1. keeps telling you to go and use the half pipe. then, while watching a speed run, i noticed that no one else had the problem and i realized you could just turn the hint system off

:P It's kinda amusing sometimes, after terminal falling into the WSA about 400 times, it suddenly popping up and telling me to go save in the Temple Grounds, made me smile.

One shall stand, one shall ball.

Here's a tip: press Z and it'll go away. :P

I forgot to turn off the hint system when I started playing MP2E for the first time but it never popped up once for me O.o

Okay I see one problem:
1. You're getting repeatedly annoyed by the hint system.

I also see two resolutions:
1. Turn of the hint system. Takes 10 seconds. No detriment to the community.
2. Log onto Metroid 2002 forums and take the time to type up a decent post so you can complain about how the game is damnable because you fail to use up 10 seconds of your time to disable a feature. Also takes 10 seconds. Annoys the hell out of fellow posters.

Now I'll take my time and say... wtf???
