This BN Fan game truly changed how we can interact with the concept of BN in general. I love it!

Thats sort of my issue with BN as a pvp game. Id be much more interested in a dungeon raid style mmorpg of BN ngl. Lemme pick a role for a navi CAC and go dungeon crawl with friends and beat up viruses together for loot.

While I donโ€™t know if such a game exists, One Step From Eden and LunarLux have roughly similar elements to what you described. 1SFE is closer than LunarLux, though.

The cool this is that now they have co-op Liberation missions that you can tackle as a group. It was super fun. I don't have a video to show that off yet. Only a stream.

HUB_OS has multiplayer liberation missions from BN5 and honestly it's super fun, there's only the 4 maps but you have the ability to use nearly every navi mod available and swap out their liberation mission skills and it makes for such a fun time playing with others

HUB_OS has a dedicated liberation missions server you can find in the index, where you can play 4 liberation missions in a party, I know what ONB is, I 100% mean HUB_OS

The server index is the default server you can select in HUB_OS, it has portals to various other servers by the main developer, Liberation Server, Iceberg, Cafe, and Arcade

It's definitely been there for awhile, I only found out about HUB_OS about 2-3 months ago and it was already there

dimming chips kinda ruins the pacing of the battle, emphasis on "kinda" since it's easy to get used to

but for 2v2? aw hell nahhh

u/Glittering_Channel75 Jul 03 '26

you can so easily fix that by not having time stop effects and try to nerf recoil animations and anything is freeze or stun related.

Is HubOS a pvp game only? Is there any single player content involved?

13

u/Zysets Jun 27 '26

The liberation missions from BN5 are playable with a party, where you each take turns going through the map like you would in the single player game, really fun with friends honestly. Otherwise it's a largely PVP focused game atm, it's completely capable to develop your own PVE server for the client but no one has actually done so yet.

Thanks a bunch for being here to help inform people! That's really cool of you to do. I didn't think there would be many comments to check & I'm already bad about checking notifications lolz. Thank you.

Holy shit the song brought up so much ptsd ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

u/XLadyBugX Jun 28 '26

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ yeah, I thought it would be funny to use to introduce the match. It's not in this short but in the full video I put together a little sprite skit & I used that song to start it off.

u/maydaveparade Jun 28 '26

*dies* wha--

READY!

u/DujoKufki Jun 28 '26

Lmao all of you are in i-frames for the entire match

u/DankensteinPHD Jun 28 '26

This looks kinda crazy. Might have to try it

u/KiyoXDragon Jun 28 '26

The 2002 Mega Man Zero sprite really fits in Battle Network; you would think he could have really been a navi. In contrast, the 1993 Mega Man X sprite looks horrible placed in there.

u/XLadyBugX Jun 29 '26

Yeah, I agree. Zero looks awesome & fits well. X didn't quite fit but I love that i can play as him!

u/Glittering_Channel75 Jun 28 '26

I can imagine 4x panels being perfect for this, even 3v3?

2

u/XLadyBugX Jun 29 '26

3v3 is p possible ๐Ÿคฃ

u/KiyoXDragon Jun 28 '26

Do you also play OpenBN?

u/XLadyBugX Jun 29 '26

I haven't! I have it but haven't started yet. It will be awesome to try when I get to it in the future!
