I hope you had fun despite the mishaps.

Are you dead set on playing Metroid Prime Federation Farce with 4 players, or would you try it with 3? My friend has that game too so we could do 3 with no problem. We would just have to be able to start early enough in the evening (like 7-8pm here).

Not dead set on it but if it can be arranged, I'd like to try and do it that way. I know when I brought it up last year a couple people were interested like Stratos and Fatty the Hutt. Let me try and launch the NWR Gaming Club first and see if that gets some more interest.

Well, it's October now. A good time for more Luigi's Mansion 2?

I'm interested in picking up Federation Farce so I'd be down for that.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #29 on:** October 04, 2018, 01:36:36 PM »

Going to be honest. I've put in more time with the Luigi's Mansion Scarescrapers to try and get more of the ghosts captured and I've become pretty bored with the mode at this point. I'm ready for Federation Force.

If pokepal is in and you've still got your friend then let's get into that next week. Can't this weekend. I'm going away to visit family but if this coming Tuesday evening works for people then we could start at that time or if people want to get into tonight then we could wet our appetite for the game a bit sooner.

Wait why did you play it without me?

Khushrenada · « **Reply #31 on:** October 04, 2018, 02:00:58 PM »

To collect the ghosts faster. I got sick of dropped connections (so we'll see how Federation Force goes) and just started playing the Scarescrapers in local play by myself. I'd do a 25 story Scarescrapper and then quit after the 20th floor which is the last new boss ghost I could encounter. The 25th will always be the Brain Poltergust at the roof of the Scarescrapper. I've done this a few times.

Tried doing Endless but couldn't consistently get past the 5th floor 1st boss so I've just stuck with the Normal 25 Hunter mode as I can efficiently level up and conquer through. Playing with other people means you aren't always the one to suck up the boss ghost which I felt could be frustrating if trying to collect certain ghosts so I decided to cut out all other participants to prevent that. I've still got a little under half to go but it's made me a bit bored with the whole mode and process now.

That's disappointing. Feels like you've wasted one of the few things we could play together.

That isn't how it works. The whole team gets the ghost regardless of which one actually sucked it up at the end.

I ordered Federation Force so it should be in by Tuesday.

Oh, really? I guess all the dropped or failed connections might have been a factor in losing the data of some ghosts captured but it felt like there were times I thought and expected to see a ghost collected and it wasn't there so I thought that might have been the reason why.

I got Federation force in. what time are we playing?

Khushrenada · « **Reply #36 on:** October 09, 2018, 06:12:15 PM »

Federation Force - Mop it up, Mop it up's friend?, Khushrenada, Pokepal148 - Tuesday

Triforce Heroes - ejamer, Khushrenada, Mop it up - Thursday

Just needed to get that straight as a reference point.

Probably depends on what we hear from Mop it up but usually she's ready to start around 8:00 PM EST which is a couple hours. Not sure if we'll have to friend code swap with her friend (Terra) if she is also joining us but Mop may know these details already. Once we get Mop's input, we should be able to get things set-up.

Oh, this is going on tonight? Yeah, let's jump in.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #38 on:** October 09, 2018, 08:15:46 PM »

Pokepal148. Whenever you see this and show up then just jump onto the NWR Discord multiplayer channel. We're waiting for you there.

pokepal148 · « **Reply #39 on:** October 16, 2018, 03:42:32 PM »

So are we up to doing more Federation Force sometime?

Khushrenada · « **Reply #40 on:** October 16, 2018, 04:46:14 PM »

I am. Just been waiting for you to come back and pick another time to meet up for when you are ready.

pokepal148 · « **Reply #41 on:** October 16, 2018, 06:00:12 PM »

How does Thursday night sound?

Khushrenada · « **Reply #42 on:** October 16, 2018, 06:24:02 PM »

Sounds perfectly cromulent to me.

pokepal148 · « **Reply #43 on:** October 17, 2018, 04:21:03 PM »

It might be a good idea to get the 5 consecutive victories in Challenge Mode of Blast Ball. That gets us a bunch of experience with the game's ball physics that will transfer over to our standard multiplayer hijinks and it will give us the Hyper Mod which is an unbreakable mod that boosts the power of charge shots by 100% and removes the speed decrease while charging when you're at full health (and we don't have to worry about losing it when we need to restart a mission).

Khushrenada · « **Reply #44 on:** October 17, 2018, 04:39:35 PM »

Is that something that has to be done in single player or are you talking about doing it when we meet up tomorrow?

pokepal148 · « **Reply #45 on:** October 17, 2018, 05:36:06 PM »

I believe it can be done in multiplayer.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #46 on:** October 17, 2018, 07:26:18 PM »

Alright. Let's give it a shot. I did want to try the whole Blast Ball thing at some point anyways.

Mop it up · « **Reply #47 on:** October 17, 2018, 07:49:54 PM »

I've never tried the Blast Ball before so that could take a while.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #48 on:** October 17, 2018, 08:08:25 PM »

Look at that! Something new for Mop it up. For once, she won't be the expert of the online group playing a game.

Mop it up · « **Reply #49 on:** October 17, 2018, 08:09:19 PM »

When have I ever been that? o_O
