Here it is. My long list of suggestions for this run. Hope it will be useful some day, enjoy!
The thing with Megaman 4 is that it may have a undiscovered glitch with the Balloon. I wonder if several people would work togheter and investigate whether or not you can go through walls and similar useful things with it as Bisqwit, Finalfighter and Morimoto did in their run. Im most certain at 98% it should work. Overall, I think whoever decides to give this run a try should always try using Balloon no matter if the trick that is been used in Rockman1 & 2 works or not on Megaman 4, because you can skip many enemies, getting higher on ladders and so forth. I also suggest doing Drill Man level first due to you'll get Rush Jet Adaptor here if you are going to use Rush Jet Adaptor in many places, which may not be necessary due to the efficiency of the Balloon.
Kopernical, you are absolutely right, my smile were inappropriate, try disregard that goofy thing from me, sorry bro :)
>Pharaoh Man Level<
At:
00:26 - You did a wonderful thing, namely that you could actually slide under those scorpions :) so, my only concern here is that can you repeat this thing several times during this part in Pharaoh Man level (I was especially thinking of doing this at 00:25, 00:29, 00:32 and 00:34? If so, you maybe could save som time. I'll bet if it really does work you have to hit the button really fast to pull it off :)
01:05 - I was thinking if its even useful to stand a bit further on those flying robots in order to reach to the next on faster? I think it may be useful to do that, what do you think? And thats basically all suggestions I could find on this level, nice boss battle.
>Ring Man Level<
At:
02:49 - I got the feeling that you might have grabbed the ladder some frames to soon right?
03:38 - I'll bet that you've already tried to see if works to simply walk through that big robot. And a suggestion here would be that you here choosed Pharaoh armor to get quicker through him. I know you end with just one shot left of Pharaoh but there might be a solution to that below here :)
03:17 - Notice how you charge your Pharaoh armor, thus your armors health decreases, which might not be necessary due the forthcoming lag at this stage and seeing no need to hit those enemies. If this is possible, then you'd saved some Pharaoh armor shot.
03:28 - If you paus here, can you see the thing Im seeing, namely that you might are 1-2 frames off to the left? You should be able to be 1-2 frames at right here.
03:51 - Is it necessary to hit these enemies? Are you hitting them to avoid lag? Excellent boss fight btw.
>Dust Man Level<
At:
05:13 - Same thing here, you seem a bit away to the closest wall when you are going down, can you be nearer and save som frames?
05:25 - Don't charge, because my theory is that you would only create more lag, either shoot a fast Pharaoh shot or simply avoid hitting him.
05:44 - Excellent done all the way through those rocks!
>Skull Man Level<
07:13 - Here I would like people to investigate whether its possible to use Balloon to already here pass through this wall or not.
07:16 - Or try using Balloon here to go up outside the screen and move at the speed of light forward a long way forward :) Worth trying I believe :)
07:50 - Release yourself from the ladder, jump at the near edge, and continue climbing. Agreed?
>Dive Man Level<
At:
09:37 - I think you should be able to slide on your Balloon right? If so, then by doing a quick slide and a jump could reslut in avoiding getting hit here.
10:14 - Same possible suggestion as similar suggested note above, and as always, excellent boss battle!
>Drill Man Level<
At:
11:26 - I just realized that you can actually skip your regular armor and use your Balloon here.. You must agree with me that you can use Balloon 2/3 of this stage and by using Ballon, I just know you might save seconds doing it. And I don't think you have to worry about these enemies at 11:53 if you have the Balloon beacause they are either to slow to get near you or they move upwards.
12:01 - Balloon might be efficient here and perhaps on the second floor.
12:04 - From here (1/3 left of the stage) you can now switch to any weapon you desire and try avoid hitting unnecessary enemies (besides from the obvious falling rocks), 'cause those flying head's aren't any threat to you or the lag I believe.
12:49 - Great boss battle besides from only 2 questions, 1: why did you took a hit at 12:49? 2: At: 12:53, do you agree with me that due to you are facing away from him, you are losing some frames until your shot reaches him? If you'd simply facing him, I believe that your shot would actually hit him faster.
>Toad Man Level<
At: NOTHING :)
Well well, nothing improvable here ^_^ I felt everything was done very efficiently. Maybe your boss battle you could stand some frames closer to him so you when you shoot you even dont have to raise your arm to fire due to how close you stand next to him.
>Bright Man Level<
At:
16:10 - I would you to at this stage begin to press upwards so you can reduce some frames and to be able to jump higher on the ladder.
16:44 - Got the impression that you might have been some frames after to push upwards.
16:59 - Would sliding be faster to reach to the next floor thingy and to the next etc? I think it might be the case.
19:06 - Im most certain that using Balloon here, instead of using Rush Jet would be faster as you can pretty much easily use it further, right? Notice also the delay on 19:15 where you have to wait about a second for Rush Jet to reappear. using Balloon from previous stage and here to boss battle would surely save some time or even seconds.
20:22 - Here I have a big and sweet idea to you :) Lets say you'll use Balloon instead of Rush Jet already here. Couple of frames would probably be saved here and further.
20:28 - Useful using Balloon here and I know that enemy above might hit but cant you with the tightest and accuracy use Balloon on the left side aswell to avoid getting hit from him?
20:36 - Here comes my big idea.. How about using Balloon at this stage and while sliding on your own Balloons (if its possible sliding on your own Balloons, if not my idea still should work) you can reach to the nearest armor refill (and as you already know, each time you use Balloon only 1 armor health is used), take it and continue with your high speed making Balloons, most probably you don't need to take the second armor refill if you'd used Balloon and Im quite positive you would have made it to the ladder with Balloons. If this idea would work, I believe you would save big time here using my suggestion! Further on this level, you can see for yourself that you use Balloon very well indeed.
21:45 - Boss Battle. I know it pains you that you couldn't hit the boss with the final shot to end him :) but maybe, just maybe you can actually do it if its possible here to NOT jump that high and possibly doing a extremely quick jump afterwards to hit him again. Sounds pretty far-fetched, I know.
23:18 - Balloon kopernical ^_^ You'd with Balloon gain a very high height and grabbing the ladder on near topp of the screen. While you'd picked Balloon, you could have used it at: 23:23 right? Here you can reach the topp of the ladder with Balloons.
23:42 - That refill was surely not necessary was it? As it slows you and your overall time down.
24:45 - Here I felt you hesistated, why?
25:22 - Wonder if you'd jump here you would go down faster?
25:31 - Feel that you are 1-2 frames away from the right side of the wall/air.
27:27 - Now I wonder it would be efficient using Balloon at this stage until 27:51? As i think it would be hard using Balloon during the water stage.
28:12 - Balloon would be better as you would get much better height to reach the topp left nearest ladder.
28:17 - Same thing here.
28:20 - Didn't you grab the ladder a bit to soon?
28:52 - Why didn't you shoot again? He did not blink at this stage.
30:26 - Can you jump from here? Since when I paused at this stage, I could se that you were for a split second moving (i.e walking) forward which should enable you to jump on the ladder.
30:56 - Excellent boss battle.
31:56 - Faster if you jumped to get down faster? When you face the stage bosses again you fought every single one of them beautifully. The main rule fighting these stage bosses at this point is always to deceive them to get closer to you at your right side so you can quickly as possible transport back to the main room after you've defeated them.
35:52 - Here I had an great idea. What if its possible to use Balloon either on the near surface to accelerate inside the wall OR use Balloon to reach upwards in order to accelerate forward?
