  1. Calculating how many missions can be completed
  2.  
  3. One may think that the number of missions in MMRPG is equal to the normal campaign missions, plus the star force missions. So we just look for the highest mission count in the leaderboards and call it a day. Wrong.
  4.  
  5. From recent investigations, there are two more factors that need to be considered. First of all, whether or not a mission awards you with a field/fusion star does not make it two missions. So that means the normal Cut Man mission from the campaign and the Cut Man field star mission that is playable after completing the campaign are one mission.
  6.  
  7. Second of all, because of the gimmick of swapping fields around all 3 players, all 1024 field missions, and fusion missions can be played 3 times across all three players.
  8.  
  9. Taking this into consideration, the total number of missions is equal to 3x all the field missions and fusion missions, plus all of the other campaign missions. This is numerically expressed as:
  10.  
  11. 3*1024+15 = 3087
  12.  
  13.  
  14. Calculating how much BP can be earned
  15.  
  16. If you thought the previous section was confusing, wait until you see this :D
  17.  
  18. To start things easy, let's start with the other campaign missions first.
  19.  
  20. Each mission has 2 variables that determine the score: the base BP and the ratio of target turns to turns it took to complete. The equation for this is expressed as:
  21.  
  22. base BP*(target turns/turns took to complete)
  23.  
  24. Since we want to use the minimum number of turns took to complete to maximize the points earned, the number of turns (aka, the denominator) will always be 1. Since the denominator is pointless when it's equal to 1, we can remove it from all equations that we will use in the future. Therefore, the equation we will use for this investigation is:
  25.  
  26. base BP*target turns
  27.  
  28. In the intro field, after each victory, an extra Met is added to the number of Mets before the mission is completed. the base points are actually equal to the number of Mets x100 and the number of target turns is actually equal to the number of Mets x8. Assuming that the maximum possible Mets in the Intro field is 8, the largest possible base point for the intro mission is 800, and the largest possible target turn for the intro mission is 64. When finding the max BP possible from the intro mission, we would express this as:
  29.  
  30. 800*64 = 51 200
  31.  
  32. We can play the intro mission across all 3 campaigns, so we multiply this number by 3:
  33.  
  34. 51 200*3 = 153 600
  35.  
  36. The max possible BP we can earn in the Wily Castle mission is:
  37.  
  38. 20 000*16 = 320 000
  39.  
  40. The max possible BP we can earn in the Cossack Citadel mission is:
  41.  
  42. 40 000*16 = 640 000
  43.  
  44. The max possible BP we can earn in the Light Laboratory mission is:
  45.  
  46. 60 000*16 = 960 000
  47.  
  48. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Light's Final Destination mission is:
  49.  
  50. 35 000*8 = 280 000
  51.  
  52. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Light's Final Destination II mission is:
  53.  
  54. 120 000*24 = 2 880 000
  55.  
  56. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Light's Final Destination III mission is:
  57.  
  58. 360 000*64 = 23 040 000
  59.  
  60. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Wily's Final Destination mission is:
  61.  
  62. 40 000*8 = 320 000
  63.  
  64. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Wily's Final Destination II mission is:
  65.  
  66. 135 000*24 = 3 240 000
  67.  
  68. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Wily's Final Destination III mission is:
  69.  
  70. 400 000*64 = 25 600 000
  71.  
  72. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Cossack's Final Destination mission is:
  73.  
  74. 45 000*8 = 360 000
  75.  
  76. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Cossack's Final Destination II mission is:
  77.  
  78. 150 000*24 = 3 600 000
  79.  
  80. The max possible BP we can earn in Dr. Cossack's Final Destination III mission is:
  81.  
  82. 440 000*64 = 28 160 000
  83.  
  84. Now let's calculate field missions! We'll use missions with field and fusion stars in them, as they're the most rewarding. Every time a field mission is completed, the mission levels up. The BP of points is equal to the mission level x2000 and the target number of turns is 16. So assuming that the highest level a mission can reach is 100, the max possible BP from one field mission is:
  85.  
  86. 100*2 000*16 = 3 200 000
  87.  
  88. There are 32 possible field missions, which can be played 3 times across all 3 players. Therefore, the max possible BP from all field missions is:
  89.  
  90. 3 200 000*32*3 = 307 200 000
  91.  
  92. Finally, let's calculate fusion missions. Surprisingly, from what I've discovered, the base BP is randomly generated! (Note that the base BP generated is divisible by 100 and within a margin of ~1500 BP) This made the max base BP hard to pin down, so do take these numbers with a grain of salt! The largest base BP in a Dr. Light fusion mission seems to be 137 200 BP, the largest base BP in a Dr. Wily fusion mission seems to be 157 300 BP and the largest base BP in a Dr. Cossack fusion mission seems to be 177 500 BP. The target turns is 34 and there are 992 possible fusion missions, which can be played 3 times across all 3 players.
  93.  
  94. Therefore, the max possible BP from all Dr. Light fusion missions is:
  95.  
  96. 992*137 200*34 = 4 627 481 600
  97.  
  98. The max possible BP from all Dr. Wily fusion missions is:
  99.  
  100. 992*157 300*34 = 5 305 414 400
  101.  
  102. The max possible BP from all Dr. Cossack fusion missions is:
  103.  
  104. 992*177 500*34 = 5 986 720 000
  105.  
  106. With most of the number crunching out of the way, we simply add all the max BPs up, and Wallah! The theoretical limit of total player BP is 16 316 369 600
