Finally, a well deserved set for this game. Thank you, tele!
KojiroS 11 Nov 2021 15:56
Oh, new cheevos. Thanks. Now to think how TF to get a no-hit against Darkman 1.
MaxMilyin 11 Nov 2021 21:23
Thanks for new cheevies
televandalist 11 Nov 2021 21:51
@KojiroS - get as many wave attacks in as fast as you can so he's not a bitch to jump over
danilofent97 12 Nov 2021 14:06
Remastered!
KojiroS 12 Nov 2021 14:57
Some of those cheevos sound brutal, but Rockman Complete Works 5's hard mode was insane. It completely disabled energy and life drops, and I think tanks and Eddie did not spawn either. You had to finish the game in original mode to unlock it.
Iceman 14 Nov 2021 12:47
I'm glad that I finished the old set before this new achievements appeared.
FabinSS 15 Nov 2021 03:37
Remastered. At Proto Man stage 1 DON'T, no, really, DON'T USE RUSH COIL ON THE SPIKES, YOU'LL DIE BECAUSE BAD HITBOXES. Yeah it happened...
Sarconius 18 Nov 2021 08:30
The set feels much more complete now, thanks for the revision!
Madawk 20 Nov 2021 02:55
M-E-G-A-O-C-D-V not working for me. What's the correct order? Tried twice and nothing happened.

Would love to see no damage stage achievements for the fortress stages also! Really enjoyed this revision though.

Amazing set for the best mega man game.

Nice Revision, the Deathless was fun.
Juaroomblah 9 Aug 2022 18:18
so i wasn't actually gonna get achievements for this one at first (i think it's kinda boring) but i'm glad i did, this set like the others, made me rethink and see the game in a different, positive light; they're not mega man 9 or 10 but they're still well designed.
GrayCloudSpectator 18 Oct 2022 20:30
Due to the game, the set is a bit easier than MM4, but I thoroughly enjoyed this. MM5 possibly has the worst set of weapons in the entire series, but I really like this game's soundtrack.
coveredingas 13 Nov 2022 03:23
Achievements often give me a new appreciation for old games, especially games I know well.

Not... Really the case for MM5. It was fun, but what I've walked away with is a much deeper understanding of what makes this entry so forgettable. Between terrible weapons, an overpowered buster that doesn't quite feel right, and boring bosses that can easily be cheesed, this game is technically better than the first three, but much less inspired.

The achievements themselves are very well-tuned. There's only one in this set I'd dump and that's the one where you fly Rush through the crystal droppers. A great job overall, and a must play if you love the Mega Man series.

Mastered! Mega Man 5 is my second favorite NES Mega Man game, so this was actually kinda fun
