Is there any way to upgrade Omni to v5 so far?

Title. :)

having the hardest time finding the way to upgrade Omni to v5. I reeeeally want to see what's behind all those doors marked "5". Halp?

Wait for Episode 4

The problem is that the game states that it may be impossible to go back to Metamorphosis after episode 3, which would make it impossible even if I get Omni V5 in episode 4.

So I'm thinking that there must be some hidden way of upgrading to V5.

You could use a trainer if you really wanted to.

Other than that, I don't think there's a way to do it with a Daemon Server.

Also, there has to be a way to get back into Metamorphosis after EP4. All the previous episodes have included ways to return to previous area, even EP3 has two ways to get back to the EP1 areas. It was be a huge break from the game design up to this point if they suddenly stopped letting you backtrack and would defeat the entire Metroidvania feel they're going for with those doors.

It says right on the screen after completing chapter three that it may not be possible to go back, though.

"may" being the operative word. Meaning the possibility of return still remains.

*maybe* you won't be able to backtrack until you're finished.
*maybe* it won't be "backtracking"... nudge nudge wink wink
or *maybe* they'll just add an explore mode... maybe maybe maybe
maybe wait and see... oh there was that word again :)

Going back to Metamorphosis may be impossible after episode 3, but not after episode 4 ;)

considering how many lvl5 doors there are i'd say it's probable and not so impossible, but thats a mission for a later episode ;)

Or, more than likely, most of the level 5 doors represent areas where "Well, this is a large facility and thus there should be a door here, but we don't need the areas behind that door for gameplay purposes, so we'll put a level 5 door there (intending that it never be opened) and call it done".

So, yeah, /especially/ if we get an upgrade to Omni Level 5, I would be rather suprised if we get to go back into the facility -- it means alot of extra work on the part of the developers that they may not have the resources to complete.

not if they only pair all the doors to each other (1 door to 1 door ofc), no extra grapich work only some coding

But if you look at the map, this is clearly impossible -- many of the level 5 doors lead to new areas, which would obviously have to be designed. And to the degree that this /is/ possible, it rather defeats the purpose -- the idea of getting through the level 5 doors is to expand the story / find new puzzles / add more content, and doors that lead to areas that you've already seen is... Well, not very interesting. :)

for the purpose of easier access to all areas it wouldn't be that far fetched and all areas that are accesible right now aren't on the map at all times eather so... besides we don't know there intentions or the perpose of the lvl5 doors, im only speculating... and in my mind there are more guards ofc maybe even some with full bodygear (full stun immunity, non defeatable)

So EP 4 is out any way to upgrade to higher omni level yet? or will this be put in last when EP 5 is out and somehow you can reset game but stay with highest Omni Level?

You can't uprade your OMNI to level 5 in Episode 4, sorry.
