[SM] Super Metroid: Cliffhanger [E]

I just got the speedbooster and made it back to the elevator. To the right at the top is a place where one SB block stops me from going on, but it doesn't seem possible to get a charge there, ever with quick charges.

What do I do?

You'll need to quickcharge. It's rather easy. start running a few steps, then press forward again.

Hmm. I knew how to do that, I just couldn't get it to work there. I thought there was too little space and it was possibly a one-way exit. >_<

Well, at least I know what to do now. Thanks.

alright, I'll just check everything again then I guess :3

Edit: Okay, I have reason to believe something is wrong.

After the second heat run and reaching the grapple/ibj room, there's that face thing that indicates the whole to what's probably the next major upgrade. But there's a solid black space between me and the door area...or is this intended. ALL I GOT WAS AN ETANK from this, and I can't think of anywhere I would need it.

Edit 2: Uh, I might have a lead again...nvm

Edit 3: actually no...here's the pic. I'm pretty sure something is wrong, since I've grappled and bombed every thing around here. The bomb is being laid at the place where I end up after falling, a dead end. Please check it out in SMILE :D

what the hell?!

Edit: Ok. ATTN all original version players. go back to my site and grab it again.

Bolognab has found a serious game stopping error.

Apparently, whilst aesthetically fixing up both original and easy versions (tedium overload), I somehow left a solid block there. This passed the radar because I was obviously fixing these things with another rom. I have 400+ backups and I must have fixed that solid block in the wrong one. Sorry everyone. Re-patch.

Yeah, just keep a savestate handy and start again after patching a new rom.

Hasty release = shit like this :(

Ehhh.. I have grapple and I returned to the area where the morphball was. Can't figure out where I'm supposed to go (unless I missed something back in that previous section).

Have you figured anything out about the glitch in the easy version?

Yes that's been fixed.

FirePhoenix

So that means the new patch is up, along with that fix for that block? (unless that block was only in the hard mode)

I finished the Hell's Run segment in Norfair. Someone suggested I should get to Kraid or find the Ice Beam. What's my next objective?

I've been over the map at least once now and I can't find a place that grapple lets me get to that I couldn't get to before. I hope I'm not looking for some random crumble grapple block, though I've been checking.

Yeah, but how do I do that? It's me, a Ripper Shaft, two E-Tanks, 5 Missiles, Charge Beam, Morph Ball, Bombs and a recent Speed Booster. And yeah, for your lols, I'm doing this on Easy Mode.

Yeah, or should I do the crazy and wall-jump-shoot-keep-doing-it-until-I-reach-the-top?

Edit: Eliminated Kraid, found Ice Beam.

Now I need to get out and head back to Surripere.

After speed booster:

You definitely want kraid, just think about map layout for a minute

Well, I found the place where grapple lets you advance, but sadly, I never got grapple. I got the ice beam though. Any hints as to grapple's location? (playing on easy for the time being)

I'll feel stupid if it was obvious, but I really can't find it. You want to:

go to the landing site

This angers DMantra greatly. He included special mockball madness in the hard ver just for you.

I spent well over an hour just looking for the damn wrecked ship entrance. The speed boost jump that's required shortly after makes no sense to me so I've switched to easy. Some parts are still pleasantly frustrating though.

This picture is one of my failed attempts of the pseudo-Hell's Run. I hope you laugh.

Well, in all of my brilliance, I actually did mockball on the way to Kraid, even though I realized afterwards that I didn't have to.

Also, I may be an expert mockballer, but I cannot deal very well with suitless heat.

Finally, I will play the hard version, just after I beat the easy. Sort of like LoZ's second quest. I might just import a savestate right after the speedbooster though... Ugh.
