Couldn't manage 300m then lol. That's a scary score.

markedkiller78 (MAL) 37,476,454 L4

maniac mode without an autofire setup and 5+ buttons is gay

arthritic and **** - thank god they dumped that style of play for futari :!:

[markedkiller78]

Yes its crap, but I still love it

L3 is so much fun. I'm really crap (worse) at original than maniac

[jpj]

go for S-Type, and try to always have the formation setting, rather than trace options

i think the backgrounds and music are much better than futari, to be honest. this is one of the boards that i miss

I'll need to read up on the strat section for original. I hear it's really easy, but I'm totally **** at it.

Futari Maniac does have a better score system, for your hands anyways, but samma is still fantastic. It was one of the games I missed too, hence it being replased as soon as I could

[markedkiller78]

Ok. Original mode seems very easy with Type S. First credit I got to the L4 dragons with 2 lives, then got creamed. I continued & got to the boss on 2 lives.

jpj, do you have any tips for the dragons towards the end of L4? The overlapping ones, seem to catch me with stray bullets from the bottom of the screen Is it timing the bullet cancelling at the right time or something else?

I notice in L5 its all about when you kill trigger the bullet cancelling

[jpj]

had to think what you meant there ... if you shoot them in the head, they die quicker. be aggressive. the very last dragons can be tough because you need to take the wings off one without getting hit by a bullet, or touching him.

bomb management is key as well. if you know when and where you typically need to bomb, you'll be sailin'. places i'd suggest using a bomb:

end of stage 3 to get the 1up (unless you're comfortable without it - getting that 1up is very important, it's +10 mill if you clear it)
stage 3 boss penultimate form
stage 4 dragons
stage 4 boss 2nd/3rd pattern
stage 5 midboss
stage 5 just after midboss
stage 5 boss (all patterns, lol)

[markedkiller78]

Thanks

So I need to bomb those mo suckas. The last 2/3 dragons are a massive pain

[jpj]

original mode is all about getting the clear with as many spare lives as possible, as each extra life is worth 10 mill. don't hold on to those bombs like you're playing dodonpachi

[markedkiller78]

I'm going to aim for tha clear in original mode for the next few weeks. It' seems very do-able with the S type.

It' no where near as much fun as Maniac, but also no where near as hard lol

[jpj]

try beating it on 1 life

[markedkiller78]

Lol try beating yourself with a stick

I managed to get the 2nd score extend on L4 during my last credit. Only managed to play 2 since my last post

I’m getting sucked into clearing original. Although it’s simplistic to the max, I’m starting to like it. It also seems very do-able, quickly. The L4 dragons still seem a bit on the cheap side

Can we open up the HS tables to include Original too? I know jpj will be keen on this

[jpj]

original mode is just a lot of fun have you played any ultra mode yet?

[markedkiller78]

original mode is just a lot of fun have you played any ultra mode yet?

Have you jusggled fire whilst driving a car? Ultra isn't even funny.

I honestly can't get past any the ULTRA/HARDER/HARI KARI level 1s without using all 3 bombs per life on L1. I repeat, not even funny

[jpj]

i could get to level 2 boss. and i can do the stage 1 nomiss/nobomb, but it took a while. futari's ultra is just so much **** though, because you're rarely helped out with any slowdown in the first stage

if i re-bought this pcb, i'd only play original and ultra, no ****

[markedkiller78]

How much of a pussy am I? First credit and I leave this much energy to deny myself the 1cc



1 more sodding second is all it needed
