>>
>>159410308
Sure what area are you struggling with? and which charatcer yu using?
>>
>>159410373
I'm using the yellow ghostbuster.

I'd like a run-down on everything the game contains in terms of mechanics so that I know what I should be paying attention to. Can you also tell me what the first thing I should be learning is?
>>
>>159410609
Read through this for a start

http://world-of-arcades.net/Cave/Guwange/mode7/index.htm

Each character plays slightly different, you need to get an intricate knowledge of stage layout and focus on positioning yourself smartly during each step to use your shiki more efficiently and with less danger. Knowing when you use shot instead of shiki to farm coins is important. The very first thing to learn is trying to get 1000 coins by the mid of stage 1 which is achieved by smart positioning and cancels, then you can get much more from the flocking bats etc. Get ready to be supremely annoyed by cat spider and for that i would recommend starting with the 3 cycle plan ie dodging 2 bombing the 3rd and forcing him to the final cycle.

Who the fuck is the yellow ghostbuster?
>>

>Deathsmiles scoring contest ended about 17 hours ago and still no word on who won or even acknowledgment that it ended

I wonder if something's wrong.
>>
>>159410960
Thanks for the link and tips. I'll start with learning shiki strats and enemy placement in stage 1. It's probably going to take a while before I get a decent score but I'm not in a rush or anything so whatever

Gensuke is the yellow ghostbuster because that's what his in-game sprite reminds me of
>>
>>159411724
It will take a long time but stick with it and yes for a time the game will frustrate you massively which is mainly down to becoming more competent with the concept of controlling 2 things at once, it's a multi tasking masterpiece. Keep me updated on progress and ask any questions, the more specific they're the more I can help. Gensuke btw has a piercing shot unlike the others this is utilizable in afew particular areas namely the final stretch of 3, parts of 4, mid 2 and the rooftop ambush mid 5, look to keep your skull meter above half way then use shot for gainz. Another tip is stage 1/2 with gensuke and i guess milking cat spider can be a little more awkward due to his shot frequency being lower than the others but with more power however his shiki moves faster than others and covers a mid sized stretch. Final thing if you get to stuck i'l make an inp for you showing a stage 1/2/3 route etc.

I was thinking something more along the lines of, say... Degica looked at the Deathsmiles leaderboards after the contest ended and realized for the first time that they have no way of knowing which entries were submitted within the contest period, and now they don't know what to do.

(Download the replays from the leaderboard and check the date on them in the replay viewer, you're welcome presumed Degica lurker)

Or maybe it is just that thing you said. Either way.

I'm not expert but I don't think Gain is good for beginners. Most people use Golden Bat for a clear (Hover over Wild Snail and wait for the timer to run out) but Bananamatic reccomended Miyamoto (You have to use the code to unlock him)

Mentions how BL Arrange has lots of slowdown/Arrange A has crashing/Deathsmiles MBL still needs fixing/whatever else. Apparently, Degica didn't like that and some shit went down. Soon after, the Steam page of DDPR was updated with this: http://steamcommunity.com/games/464450/announcements/detail/775010563089816764

The "word from Degica" is apparently a result of this.

Doesn't change that I practiced later stages for umpteens of hours too.

>scoring is why you can't clear it after 350 hours but got in top 10
I don't even score that much, you dumbfuck. I don't even have half of the WR, for fucks sake. My score is basically ridiculous. And the parts where I mostly die, I play for survival anyway.
>>
>>159426657

I barely have half the guwange wr but you won't see me crying you know why? Because i actually find fun is playing the game something you should try instead of striving to be some leet gam0r.

As if this would mean anything on a fucking steam leaderboard. The game is dead as fuck.
I also got barely half of the WR in Battle Garegga, but I didn't have to play the game for 350 hours and actually could clear it. Yet CCWI is at least twice as hard, and I don't even play on unlimited.

instead of outright quitting you should just not play the game for like a month and play other games

at least i do make little progress in crs 68k even though i play it about once in 2 weeks
also what is the farthest you have gotten in the game
>>
>>159428925
>your rants have made it perfectly clear you are obsessed with being a l33t playorzzz
My rants are merely about how annoying it is when a game is too difficult. What does this have to do with wanting to be a top player? In contrary, if I wanted to be a top player, I'd never say a game is too difficult.

>validated by how little you help anyone and shit on lesser players
How do you even wanna know if I helped anyone? I gave often tips in this thread or on twitch to other CCWI players. Stop talking bullshit. I also never talked down on "lesser" players. Are you retarded? In contrary, I constantly said that I actually am still a shit player myself...
>>

Oh right, thought you was leaving?
>>
>>159429187
>instead of outright quitting you should just not play the game for like a month and play other games
This wouldn't help much, when the game is too difficult. Not playing doesn't make the game any easier.
>also what is the farthest you have gotten in the game
I once almost beat the stage 5 boss with him only having a pixel of health left. And for the Ex boss I probably would need another 3 extends more to survive this.

scoring in ccwi is hard becouse it was designed to be interesting to pros, just getting 1cc is not that hard with type z.

not enough if you can't clear it

but it does. most people do much better when the game is still interesting, fresh. and in order to get that feeling of freshnes you need to take a break, though i'm not sure if it applies to people with autism(i'm not making fun, i seriously think you have autism).

Yep, for me it was.

Try to clear Original first (fug stage 3) and then Maniac. Good luck!
>>
>>159432832
Yes it's fine, but the scoring system in original is pretty shit. Seems like 1.5 fixes that but I've barely touched it so I can't comment on it much
>>
>>159433373
>the scoring system in original is pretty shit
What scoring system? Shoot fuckers, collect gems. That's pretty much it.
>>
>try to turn my crt
>colors turn green
fuck. what to do, playing vertical bullet hells on tv is hard becouse of blur.
>>
>>159436221
That's the problem, there is nothing to it. Makes playing the first 2 levels really tedious if you're shit at the genre
>>
>>159436783
Well, I would think if you were new to the genre your focus would probably be on learning how to actually play the game rather than the intricacies of the usual CAVE scoring system. Not sure why that would lead to tedium.
>>
>>159436881
Good scoring systems make the process of learning less tedious because there's stuff you can optimize even after playing the easiest levels for hours. Mushihimesama original level 1 and 2 get so damn boring and there is nothing you can do about it since the scoring's so simple
>>
>>159437097
Eh, okay. I guess I can see your point of view. So wouldn't the cure for this problem, at least in Mushi's case, be to play Blue Label as your first title as opposed to the original version?
>>
>>159436297
It's because of heat, turn it when it's cold before you fire it up.
>>
>>159437243
I mean I've already gotten that 1cc a while ago I'm just saying that from my perspective as a noob playing it, the simple scoring system in the original release was an annoyance. But yeah by the looks of it 1.5 fixes that
>>
>>159436783
>Makes playing the first 2 levels really tedious if you're shit at the genre
The second level is one of the ones you can optimize most for score via rotuing.
>>
>>159437545
Oh, I know you're not the new guy asking for advice, I'm just throwing stuff out there.

The only drawback IMHO to picking 1.5 first is that your scoring system in 1.5 Original is based on being able to reliably and safely pointblank enemies. This isn't exactly a beginner friendly skill to learn.
>>
>>159436783
>if you're shit at the genre
if you're shit the whole game is going to be tedious as you grind it over and over. if you can't clear forget worrying about scoring.

The theme of demonic enemies, I guess. Tyrannosatan was supposed to be the ruler of Hell, so like, Satan himself or something. Satan Claws is probably just because Deathsmiles 2 is Christmas themed and Satan is an anagram of Santa.

>>159491389
You mean of Deathsmiles 1's endings? All four of the angels' staying endings are the canon ones, since they're all still around two months later. Sakura's canon ending seems to be a mix of her staying ending and secret ending. She befriends the angels and I assume her mother's illness was cured since she appears out and about in some of the Deathsmiles 2 endings.

I think what makes the game so difficult is, that it is really meant to be played for score, while still being a CAVE style game. This means, that when you don't play for score (and dodge without dodging), you will have dodge, but the ship speeds (constant mix between super fast and super slow) and bullet patterns are not like in Cave, and often not really meant to be dodged through.

That's why you easily make stupid mistakes in the game I think.

I'd recommend it to a beginner nonetheless, but only if you are sure that he is of the autismal variety that specifically enjoys things like Tetris TGM and would enjoy Treasure shmups, and also probably isn't into girly shit. Basically if he sees 'shooting' as the selling point of a shooting game and has the intelligence to delve into the puzzle aspect.

If nothing else CCWI at least exposes the player the 'right' mentality of scoring, as everything in the gameplay seems to suggest optimisation and thoughtful routing, much unlike Touhou which was made for survival clears first, which 95% of people do.

Hmm well for starters, finishing the game with all five lives in stock will grant like 30m points alone, so being able to do that will make things significantly easier.

Learning the Volcano recharge can really help, you should be able to get ~40m points from that alone, or maybe about 20m without it. So be sure you're using power up to milk points from the rock spawns in Volcano. Here's a video demonstrating the Volcano recharge, you might be able to do it by practicing what this guy does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iK38Zd3h-4

With Rosa, her laser shot is extremely powerful, so while you're in power up mode, you're gonna want to position her familiar so that its big shots hit the enemy but Rosa's laser doesn't. That way, you can milk more point items out of enemies before they explode. Remember to let point items break up while you're in power up mode before you collect them.

>>159582423
if you are banana yes but he drives faster than he can see due to lag in his eyes.
>>
>>159581817
That's one way to go about it. What I like to do is to start the Tyrannosatan fight with 4 or 5 lives, spam bombs at the very start, and then suicide to refill the bomb stock before collecting Jitterbug's cake to fill the lives back up to full as well. Just let Jitterbug's cake float around on its own, avoid collecting it until after you suicide.

And yeah, I think every life you have left over upon clearing is worth like 6m points each.

It floats long enough to get three bombs off and suicide. However I don't think it'll last much longer than that, so grab it quickly after the death.

the worst thing is that i do have a route, at least for the first half, but i keep failing to execute different parts of it and constantly fly into bullets, the stage is just too long for my mongrel brain to concentrate long enough. i've already posted here that someone on youtube can beat that stage without any route whatsoever, just on reflex. i think i made a pretty good progress today, but such difficulty spike is still frustrating.

G.Darius' music never worked in MAME as far as I know. It might in the latest version, but definitely not in any shmupmame release.

If you want to play it with music you'll probably have to go for a console port.

The PS2 version is the one most people go for. It's a port of the arcade version.
The PS1 version has more features but a fuckton of slowdown unless you enable CPU overclocking in your emulator, like you can in mednafen.

Ok well use the one i shared as a reference and begin building a route based on what you see, copy it and rectify any trouble spots to suit your preference, pay attention to shot vs lock on use as this is the key to raising that score.

I unconsciously freestyle a lot as I get too impatient / unfocused to follow a route, and that gets me snipe-killed very easily due to the nature of CCWI. I hope I can gather myself and restrain the urge to go off route long enough to get the clear. I think that it is completely reasonable for me to no-miss the game until s5 boss. I worry about the election too much.

>You should stick to Type lll desu, the other types deserve some love too.
I love Type III. Dodging requires no forethought because you can zap across the pattern to reach any gap you can see at once. I tried Type I but it felt sluggishly slow, so that didn't last.

Not him, but I feel like Iconoclast could be a much better STG player if he actually put some time into it. When you look at his channel, he only plays Ninja Gaiden and other stuff.

The score he achieved in CCWI in such a shirt time was amazing, but he barely played the game, and could have been much better if he kept playing it.

is it okay to not shoot through certain patterns in donpachi? i don't know if it's the fault of the game, but when i shoot it's really hard to judge the direction of bullets, to the point where i can't dodge certain patterns at all, but there is no problem when i don't fire. and man dodging without hitbox visible is hard.
>>
>>159715263
>and man dodging without hitbox visible is hard.
It isn't you just train your eye to the hitbox and draw imaginary line in your mind, unfortunately the visible hitbox meme raised a gen of faggots.

it's easier for me to deal with the first ship by just dodging and then bombing them both when the second one appears on screen. i usually don't have problems with such patterns, but the invisible hitbox + fuckhuge ship makes it hard to wiggle between bullets.

The second bit is genuinely annoying with blue ship cus slow speed, the first though you should stop trying to micro dodge as if you have ketsuis hitbox because you don't look more to going around instead of through.

He's still playing DOJWL Type-B regularly, mostly training and pushing his limits with risky as fuck routing.

>>159722526
Type-A Exy is the most balanced and poweful ship. Then Type-B Exy but its a bit slow so you'll need precise routes.
Keep in mind that a life lost with Shotia or Leynian will get your secondary weapon back to power level 1. If those dolls grant you more bombs, they'll also require more bombing because of their weakness, especially Shotia.
>>
>>159713587

This. Spending a little bit of time playing other games isn't such a big deal. Of course if you want to get good you should spend the majority of your time with STG, especially focusing on a small number of games.

Just don't quit after 2 years, which is what a lot of western players do.

It's not a compilation. It's Darius 1 with a bunch of soundtracks.

But yes, a new Darius would be great!
I mean, DBCS is rather new, but it is a port of a +5-year-old arcade version of a PSP game. And it's a great game, but they were obviously on a tight budget. All the boss arenas consist of swirlling [random colour] clouds in the background and nothing else, which is a bit boring. And some of the stages look rather uninspired too. The modernised aesthetic is very neat though. So it can be a bit of a mixed bag visually, and in that respect it can't compete with G and Gaiden, or any other Darius game, because they always looked gorgeous.
But on the other hand the music is absolutely fantastic!

So a new Darius with the production values it used to have before the millennium would be amazing!

Well Rei isn't even a real person I think, right?

And Asuka might be mentally ill, but it's not that bad. I mean, mental illness IS awful, but a lot of people are fucked-up and don't even realise it, and neither does anyone else, because aat this point it's almost "normal" to have some sort of emotional baggage or personality disorder that negatively influences your social life and judgment and shit. It's also "normal" to just keep it inside and not open up about it, so that makes it doubly worse.

Or maybe all of this is just me projecting...

Giga Wings 2 also can be beaten without shooting. It's still a shmup though. It just gives you the option to do "pacifist" playthroughs too, just like Gradius games also could be played for a huge part without shooting.
>>
>>159809445
So what you're saying is that shooting is optional in this shooting game?

>>159808657
Cave games require you to kill enemies quickly before they fire too many shots, else they will fill the screen. I don't know how that isn't a focus on shooting, but okay.

>>159809580
Ikaruga can also be done pacifist, guess it isn't a shooting game either.

Yes. If this doesn't make it a shooting game anymore, then it also doesn't make it a puzzle game anymore. It's basically a Cave game then, because it becomes about dodging.

No since you won't get anywhere without shooting in those games
>>
>>159809606
Cave games merely require you to hold down the shot button, that's it. You need zero shooting skills for these games, merely dodging skills.
>>
>>159809903
Holding down the shot button has nothing to do with shooting games.
>>
>>159809906
I see you haven't played any of Cave's games seriously, then. The fault is with you. Every DoDonPachi game requires you to time your shots to link chains, Ketsui requires you to time kills to get good emptylocks, Espgaluda you need to let the screen fill before you cancel bullets into items, Progear you need to keep jewel value up by cancelling bullets, and then kill enemies in such a way they cancel bullets into said jewels. Even Dangun Feveron you'll need to switch which shot you're using.

I'm in the top ten of CCWI, which is heavily inspired by Cave. To 1cc this game, you need zero shooting skills, merely dodging skills and holding down the shot button.

>Every DoDonPachi game requires you to time your shots to link chains
That's only when you play for score. And playing Ikaruga for score still requires way more shooting skills. Even for score, Cave is still mainly about dodging.
>>
>>159810278
>To 1cc this game, you need zero shooting skills, merely dodging skills and holding down the shot button.

No wonder you still can't 1cc it after over 300 hours of playtime lmao
>>
>>159810350
The reason I haven't 1cced it yet, is because playing it for survival is boring as fuck. Just like Ikaruga is boring to play for survival. It's very similar to Ikaruga in this regard.

Come back when you played the game for score, then we can talk again, because anything else is redundant anyway in these games.

If you merely judge a game by how it feels when playing for survival, then this only shows that you are just a fucking noob in this genre.
>>
>>159810497
What happened to you saying that scoring isn't responsible for you fucking up survival then?

I have changed my mind. You guys were right. If I wouldn't constantly practice scoring in this game, I would be much farther with survival. Just yesterday, The last 2 days I practiced nothing but milking stage 4 boss. No wonder that I don't get better at survival then.

I don't think that's the case with Deathsmiles at least. It took me quite a while to get the timing down to consistently do the scoring tricks. It's more about option positioning and timing your shots/using the right shot in the right situations.

Nah, I mean that is a thing, but it's not what I was referring to. The position of Casper's option determines which way the shot it fires will travel, whether it'll be clockwise or counter clockwise in its travel arc to boomerang back to her. It's actually rather difficult to explain just in text, but it can make a big difference when it comes to weakening enemies for timed kills.

It's not too hard, plus it's pretty much mandatory to dodge if you want a good score.

I became sad from lack of success with Type III, so I played a game with Type Z. Despite the stupid deaths as usual, I made it to the TLB, which I was going to no-miss as it was my last life, but then I accidentally used double break on the last phase. Christ.
>>
>>159849118
for how many years do you have to play to almost beat this game so fast?
>>
>>159849280
I've been playing shmups since last year's summer. Most of my playtime has been spent on casual Touhou. Steam says that I have 29 hours in Crimzon Clover.
>>
>>159849669
>Steam says that I have 29 hours in Crimzon Clover.
based on your previous posts ii though that you just started playing. i'v been playing shmups for 6 month(mostly casualy too) and after 40 hours i'm nowhere near tlb with type z.
>>
>>159850520
Touhou is just undeniably the superior learning tool
>>
How in the fucking piss does one get good at this game.
>>
>>159850520
I think I got that playtime over the course of this November... it's not much, I consider it just starting out.

>i'v been playing shmups for 6 month(mostly casualy too) and after 40 hours i'm nowhere near tlb with type z.
That screenshot >>159432343 is yours, right? Compare the score. It's a lot easier when you're reserving your breaks for defensive use, and even then I manage to die anyway... it makes me angry. I think I'll do more attempts with Type III.

i wish. like i said i'm nowhere near tlb. i haven't beaten even stage 3 yet, though that could be becouse in last 5 hours i've started trying to score to keep things interesting, but since i haven't played for nearly a month already i guess my plan failed.
>>159850759
well it could be, before ccwi i haven't played anything like it, only old shit like MUSHA and weird shit like vulkaiser.
>>
>>159838035
Maybe when I get better at shmups so I can look cool 1ccing shit.
>>
>>159852209
>i haven't beaten even stage 3 yet,
Well, that sounds odd. It's not a very difficult stage if you have your moves planned ahead. That's the theme with CCWI, I think - you need to have a detailed plan, that's what it teaches you. Scoring would especially help your skills develop. But only if you're into it all, of course.

in other news, at last reached the TLB with Type III after over 9000 hours of stage 1 restarts, and then died three times and gameovered before I could transition him to TLB2, even though I easily no-miss it in practice. I-I guess it's progress, I've never reached it before with Type III.
>>
>>159845634
Stay at the center/bottom of the screen atfirst, then slowly move left when the pattern densifies and the dodging part really begins.
I recently found that it is way easier to dodge it if you stay at the very bottom of the screen, and just do lateral left-right moves in rythm with the pattern gaps.
You can also make little up-down moves like Prom here https://youtu.be/TL3Q6CR-WjM?t=14m18s bu that'll requires very accurate movement skills.
>>
>>159810497

>That's only when you play for score. And playing Ikaruga for score still requires way more shooting skills. Even for score, Cave is still mainly about dodging.

>If you merely judge a game by how it feels when playing for survival, then this only shows that you are just a fucking noob in this genre.

lol
>>
>>159857053
The person I replied to judged Ikaruga by survival, saying youwouldn't have to shoot, so I gave an example Cave survival, dipshit.

Next time actually try to follow the discussion, instead of just taking things out of context.

Here's your answer I guess.
>>
>>159857404
Well saying that "even for score, Cave is still mainly about dodging" does make you sound like a "fucking noob in this genre who merely judge[s] a game by how it feels when playing for survival".

High scoring in Cave games is more about consistence, precise routing and shooting accuracy (ie point-blanking, shoot types alternating, time killing ennemies and so on) than just plain dodging, which is pretty much limited to few random boss patterns.
Go read that TAC and Laos interview, or even better go play some Cave games at high level.
>>
>>159857539
what's to say?
>>
>>159857539

this game is a spectacular joke, cave done absolutely right because it reflects neo-cave values in an ingenious fashion

The thing that fucks me usually are the random overlapping patterns that pop up and it doesn't seem like there is any trick to it besides just reading the screen well. Staying on the bottom center/left does help a lot though

I play CCWI, smartass, and the shooting in it is pathetic compared to Ikaruka. It's still mainly about dodging.
>>
>>159860557
Also, even Clover TAC said he doesn't see these games (Cave games) as shooting games, he rather sees them as puzzle games which are about finding out the right patterns to dodge.

Did you try Len'en yet
>>
>>159885538
Not that anon but Len'en feels orders of magnitudes harded than 2hu because the shots are so fast it becomes very much about twitch reaction if you do not have it memorized. I feel I can usually handle 2hus in a casual way going in blind because of the (typically) slower speed which allows for survival if you can read the screen. Len'en throws some heinous shit at you at heinous speeds.
>>
>>159886114
Actually, that's perfect for me.
I'm trying to play lunatic on 2hu now but the bullets are way faster than in hard.
>>
How does 2hu Lunatic compare to CAVE games difficulty wise?
>>
>>159887613
in terms of 1cc difficulty easier than most 1-alls I believe since they give so many ressources. The pattern difficulty can be similar though. Touhou patterns tend to be more random than cave
