Amrobotic, a great cc modder who excelled at mechanical mayhem. Well, now I'm bringing back one of Amrobotics' classic mods: The Metal Slug Rebel Suit! It was slightly moddified when I found it in my archives, but I converted it to Build 20 and tried my best to get it as best as I can to the original.

Image
The Rebel Suit comes with the following Devices:
Heavy MG
Super Shotgun
Cannon
Jet Digger

Image
Also, thanks to Grif's ABomb, when ever your rebel suit gibs, Marco escapes the mech to finish the fight!
He is pre-armed when he pops out with an AK-47 and a Heavy Digger, and is also buyable from the menu.

Credits:
Data - CC
Grif - ABomb
Amrobotics - the mod
Me - converting

Thanks for converting this! This is awesome. I like the whole metal slug series, Marco was my favorite character. Hope to see more from you.

I like the blonde chick, or Fio (the glasses one), can't remember.
Anyway, this was a good mod.

The limpaths for the legs are fudged. The thing hovers a tad over the ground, and when it crouches, it has the same problem as your average green clone. Its jetpack is too powerful and it is kind of hard to control because of its size, but I guess that is meant to be that way. The sprites are nice though, and so are the weapons.

Overall it's a pretty cool mod. Thanks to AmRobotics for making it in the first place and to you for reviving it!

I'm almost sure that the ABomb came out way after this, and this originally had the actor gib out anyways, so maybe crediting Grif isn't proper.

I think he edited it so that the actor would gib out and could move. If he didn't, then the actor would just stand there and you couldn't control him.

There's a few things wrong with it.
-It has more then 100 health
-It hovers slightly above the ground
-The weapons have to be bought separately.

When I said it "comes with a few devices", I didn't mean it was pre-armed. I also tried to make it more balanced, since it was nearly indestructable using vanilla stuff.

And yes, the mech did originally gib a Marco, but Grif's ABomb now lets the Marco be controllable.

He didn't make it. Amrobotics did. He just converted it.

That mech is pretty fat. It should lose some weight.

1. Cricket wanted to make this as close to the original as possible, and the original had 300 HP

2. Offsets problems, the original did this too I think.

3. See: Cricket wanted to make this as close to the original as possible.

Also, was the best mod of it's time.

Yes, it did have the same problems. I just played my CC13 (Lunar Tomato Version), and the original still "hovered" over the ground like 5-12 pixels. BTW cavecricket, you should really change the muzzleoffset for the super shotgun to:
Code:
   MuzzleOffset = Vector
      X = 30
      Y = 0
That's what I have my converted megarobot set to so it doesn't hit the robot when it's fired. Also, the shakeranges for the other weapons need to be tweaked a bit IMO.

Now that I think about it, back in B13-14, that one clone tube could gib a Blue Clone, but you never could control it. So now I know what is meant.
