Introducing Sonic Forces Overclocked

[The Duck Dealer]

Sonic Forces Overclocked is a story-based mod that takes place after the events of Sonic Forces. This mod seeks to expand the story, give Infinite a better story arc, and also incorporate characters who didn't get a chance to join in on the, er, "fun" in the original game.

Can't wait for this to come out fully as it looks cool. Sonic's voice actor even sounds like Roger Smith if Roger's Sonic voice was actually good. Still doesn't beat Jason Griffith or Junichi Kanemaru speaking English but it's fine all the same.

Will there be original levels too besides remixed ones?

Super stoked for this, gonna download asap

Well, for the most part every stage is gonna include at least a revamped layout of the original, but there are going to be alot of entirely new areas (including metropolitan highway, which is going to end up having a new section that's about 6 times as long as the original stage). Sorry for the late response, by the way!

That's alright. Looking forward to it either way.

You should play vanilla anyway, the mod is basically a sequel expansion.

Yes, Forces isn't great but you should go through the vanilla game before getting any mods so you can see just how lame it is and just how much even the simplest mods improve it lmao

Also Overclocked 100%s your game, unlocking all achievements, so if you do want to 100% it legit, do so before booting Overclocked- I'd argue the 100% experience is actually not bad, the special ring hunting is kinda fun and the time challenge missions can be pretty challenging.

The ring achievement is complete trash though.

Clearly only there to increase the amount of time played since it requires you to just repeat levels over and over with 999 rings each time. And its not like a good game like SA2 or SA1 (which don't have an achievement like this) where rings are actually used for something, so grinding for rings is something that someone might actually want to do.

The rest are all fine since its just things you can unlock without needless grind.

Oh yeah because grinding rings to buy fruit to force feed chao is so engaging and meaningful.

will this work with the grindy achievements? like 10000 rings

In that case, the Chao Garden is still an entire mode that rings are used for. You do have to play it for 100% and the intended grind is a bit high if you arent playing with Chao from the start, but 100% is still optional.

Chao Garden is also an ingenious way of encouraging gameplay improvement for those who arent attracted to getting A ranks from the start. They'll instead naturally get better due to replaying levels for rings and animals.

Forces rings are valueless, so having a ring achievement makes it a clear waste of time. And if I were to imply that the achievement serves a similar purpose to makes players better through replaying levels also doesnt work, since Forces hands out S Ranks for everything, and the levels themselves are too simplistic.

I actually find grinding rings to "force feed" your Chao by buying tons of Chao fruit to be very inefficient due to how likely they are to just... toss it aside and not eat the fruit. I find it way more efficient to just replay levels for animals or (SA2 only) chaos drives where they will always accept the stat upgrades no matter what, and they don't cost any rings to do so.

You're not even forced to finish the entire level to keep the animals you collect. Once you have ten of them, you can just pause and exit the stage, then return to the Chao Garden to give all the animals to your Chao, making the process a lot quicker.

I do occasionally buy the Chao fruit to increase stats especially since eating fruit is the only way for them to increase their stamina stat, but I don't depend on them like nothing else.
