i switched to auto just few days ago when someone in this thread told me it can be enabled, so i had to rebind everything, which is probably why.
i'm still slightly agitated though.
>>
>>159901969
Do you really need autofire in Donpachi? I mean, I only ever got to stage 4 as of yet, but intense mashing isn't really required at all I think, just very light, slightly fast tapping because you basically shoot a stream of bullets or lasers after a few upgrades.

But if it's in the game you might as well I guess~
>>
>>159902659
it's easier to just focus on movement, at least for retards who can't into multitasking like me, besides i barely use laser, so it's convenient. and when you close to the top of the screen/pointblanking the autofire gets real fucking fast.

Does /shmupg/ do any finger exercises before shooting?
>>
>>159911065
I just jump straight into it. I play a few credits before practicing anyway, that's more than enough exercising.
>>
>>159911065
No real need, but it might make playing more comfy. Just do some hand/finger stretches and shake the shit out of your hands. It worked great when I used to play piano.

No. I just get right into it. I need a bit of time before I'm mentally ready though. I play DBCS a lot so it's good that it's pretty fast-paced and there's lots of relatively short missions to just play and get into the groove again.

I don't know how I'd get motivated for an ultra-hardcore 1-hour scoring run of any bullet hell or something. I can't deal with that kind of commitment just like that when I want to shmup. I keep putting off that G.Darius 1cc because of it.
>>

Strange, when I'm not trying to follow WR routes without prior training or worrying that I don't 1cc games on my first try, I actually feel happy and content.

It's not, just that very few people can actually do it. Everyone should experience it, though.

Have a question. How important is it for you to have the option of seeing a FPS counter in the corner of the screen? Something that shouldn't even be bothered with? Always on period? Option to turn on and off?
>>
>>159928160
Option to turn on and off would be good. Otherwise it should have something like Crimzon Clover, where scores with lower FPS rate don't get counted.
>>
>>159928283
Any fps below 60 or is there a generally accepted threshold before the slowdown is considered too beneficial?
>>
>>159928493
I think in Crimzon Clover it's something like 58-59 fps

Ether Vapor and Astebreed are pretty good but they're also pretty polarizing: download the demos before buying them.

Donpuchi seems easy now, i still die to stupid shit in stage 4, but 1-all is inevitable. Guess I'll switch to jap version and try scoring in first levels.
Also I've been thinking about registering on restarsyndrome, can someone answer me if this means even internal auto is not allowed?
>2) Scores must be obtained on one credit and on default settings.
All the basic shmup rules apply - one credit, all defaults is the only way to go. The only exception is that controller functions may be remapped as the player sees fit.

Crimzon Clover is partly uncontrollable. It's partly complete luck if you score good, because the scoring mechanics are way too complicated. Apart from this does it have a good amount of rng, which also fucks with your score.

It's not a meme, you fucktard. Have you ever played the game for score seriously? It's frustrating as fuck, because you can't really control how you play.

Because it's still a very good game, despite its flaws, and I already soend way too much time on it to just stop now.
>>
>>159947867
Oh, but you can control it quite fine, if you actually know what you're doing.
>>
>>159948210
No, you can not really controll it. At least on Original, it's way too random, due to all the zako spam in the game, the fishy behaviour of the lock-ons, and the rng.

Take the stage 4 boss for example. It's completely random what kind of turrets it spawns in its second phase. For being able to milk the boss well though, you need it to have a certain kind of turret. So it very easily can happen that it takes ages til that turret spawns, which fucks with your score a lot.

You just nevcer played the game for score seriously, that's why you have no idea what you are talking about.
>>
>>159948516
>You just nevcer played the game for score seriously
That's true. And yet I'm still in top 10 somehow.
>>
>>159949101
Top ten in which mode? On Unlimited it may be different (apart from the stage 4 boss of course), because it's easier to maintain your multiplier there.

On original however, the game is way too full of spam (or better said it doesn't have enough spam like on Unlimited) to really be able to controll your multiplier.

Damn, after practicing 2nd loop of DOJ, going back into 1st loop feels so much easier. I can smell 1st loop 1cc soon! As long as I even bother to do some full runs
>>
>>159963131
Why are you practicing second loop if you can't even 1cc the first loop to access the second loop?
>>
>>159964248
Because it's way more effective than one step at a time.
>>
>>159964248
I like the game and wanted to see what lies further. Also I'm pretty sure I can 1cc 1st loop I just didn't even bother to try some full runs for some time. I'd need some more practice to be consistent enough to qualify for the second loop though. I even practiced TLB and on a good/lucky day can even get to the washing machine attack, but it still screws me over everytime.
>>
>>159962147
depends on the scoring system, in my opinion if it's deep and fun players will still compete even without official leaderboards.

>E) How dedicated and patient are you as a player?
3, that's why I have no 1ccs

>Part 2 (Answer freely):
>A) How long have you played STG's, or Touhou?
Been interested in what I called "space shooters" my whole life (usually from shareware and flash games), started playing touhou and emulating shmups maybe 7 years ago. Only started playing seriously a few years ago though and only started really practicing with save states and going for 1ccs this year
>B) Do you have a favorite game? Which is it? Why?
Espgaluda, it's just the perfect blend of mechanics I love. I can actually play it for score without having to memorize all or nothing routes and not be too far behind tryhard scores.
>C) Do you prefer survival or scoring oriented play?
Survival, but I love games that score me based on how hard I play when I'm going for survival. Kill speed and efficiency, end of stage life/bomb stock bonuses, etc.
>D) What are your greatest achievements? Why?
Closest thing is having cleared every PC touhou on normal, up to SA on Hard, and every PC extra up to DDC (around when I stopped following touhou). I am not a good player
>E) Give a rough assumption, how much do you play per day.
An hour or two max.
>F) What are your goals for the rest of this year?
Working on an Espgaluda 1cc, I'm pretty close so it's possible.
>G) How much have you improved during the past year?
A lot. I started playing DOJ semi-seriously early this year, but ended up shelving it for now because I'd rather go for an easier 1cc first.

>B) Do you visit any STG or Touhou related communities other than /vg/? If so, which?
Nope.
>C) Do you enjoy watching replays or videos of STG's and Touhou?
Yeah, I love seeing how other people approach different things. I try not to copy videos too much though.
>D) What do you think of livestreaming as entertainment and the STGrillz site?
Shmup streams are fun, no clue what STGrillz is.
>E) Do you have an idol? Why?
Manabu Namiki, DOJ and Ketsui OSTs are fucking god tier
>F) Do you wish the Western Touhou/STG players discussed more with each other?
Yeah. I don't play Touhou much anymore, but they're all shmups and they're all fun for their own reasons.

That's a good question, actually. How important is the ability to save replays in game?
>>
>>159971654
Very important desu, I always forget to record my runs.
>>
>>159971654
Critically important if you want any sense of "fair competition". It's trivial to cheat, but very hard to edit a replay. Recordings can be edited with a modicum of skill.

I clear Magic Carpet 1001 today, do you want video of this?

>>159972204

If you play a game at 0.5x speed for a frame-based game, the replay system is probably none the wiser.

I mean, it's better than nothing, but it's still trivial to cheat.

Do people ever build their own JAMMA harness rigs to play official PCBs without shelling out for a giant cab?

>>159973418
Most newer games prevent you from submitting your score if you do that

Most can't detect the usage of external utilities. I mean, it's easily possible to do so, but most don't bother.
>>
>>159973418
Most replay systems I've seen track slowdown. If somebody's constantly at 30fps in a 60fps game, bullshit gets called.
>>
>>159975420
Is that the purpose of the "frames dropped" stat on touhou scoreboards? To show if you were either cheating or running on a shitbox computer than slowed the game down and made it easier?

Exactly.

Being constantly at 60fps is just as suspicious. You'd want to look at legit replays to determine normal fluctuations and write code to match those.
But yes, if you don't mind dicking with ASM then you can cheat all you want and be undetected.
>>
>>159975420

A replay file is almost always just a list of inputs for each frame. If there's a time for each frame (or a frames dropped field), that can just be edited after the fact.

At the end of the day, you still have to trust whoever recorded the replay.

No idea what ISO said, but it's true. In CCWI high level scoring, the stage 4 boss is basically like Black Heart II from Garegga, because your score from BH II is also completely luck dependent.

Saddened by my inability to play Type III effectively, I sinned before Our Lord again and played Type Z--once--and this time I cleared! One of the 0.6%, baby!

The wide shot diminishes the routing aspect greatly, but even so, I managed to die by accidentally ramming into enemies and stage 4 boss twice, and made one honest misread on stage 5. I wanted to no-miss the TLB, but I was nervous and died right before the TLB would be destroyed.

Thanks, anons.

>But after stepping up to Unlimited I couldn't back to Original otherwise it would fucked up my muscle memory.
I'm torn between going back to Type III and clearing Original "for real", or just playing Unlimited now as it seems much more fun... but the commitment to clear Unlimited looks intimidating, survival in Original is boring now, and I want to get sidetracked into getting Touhou 1cc's again. At any rate, I promise to play more CCWI down the road!
>>
>>160016582
>or just playing Unlimited now as it seems much more fun
uh... actually it's far from fun, as a scrub player I mostly spend my time with stage 1&2

try convert your survival run into scoring route step by step, the Original WR holder did this too. you just need consistency in keep playing the game everyday.

I'm just burnt out t b h, took way way longer than I expected and I pretty much proved that I'm anything but a natural route planner. Someone else's routes would help me stay safe but isn't Unlimited all about that as well? (I haven't really played it)

>>160017791
A higher score is better than a bare 1cc! Though beating the TLB in a run is still immensely satisfying. It's not even that difficult, with just one extra life you basically have a 90% chance.

These are my savestates using the ddpdojblk rom in Shmupmame 4.2.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/cvvel7c538py6do/DDPDOJ%20White%20Label%20Savestates.zip

They go like this. Stage 1 is on 1 with the boss being on the key below it. So stage 2 is 2 and the boss for it is on w. 3 and e, 4 and r etc etc.

This goes on until 6 which I skip, and then 2-1 starts on 7 and the digits continue like before until 2-5 which starts on m and goes to the left. H is preceding the 2-5 boss, C is taisabachi, S is Hibachi.

If the savestates don't work then please do tell me.

You mean the shiki? it is used for cancelling bullets and slowing them down when it comes into contact. Half of the art with guwange is mastering the multi tasking aspect of switch between shiki and shot for movement.
>>
>>160113036
Well I only just started playing it but my main questions would be how exactly does bullet canceling work? Is it like pro-gear where the bullets are canceled if you destroy an enemy that's near them with your familiar?

Also I notice that boss fights drag on for a while, is this normal or am I doing something wrong?
>>
>he doesn't monkey-paste his routes
>>
>>160114919
>how exactly does bullet canceling work?
after you paint over a bullet and it changes colour if you kill something it will cancel the bullets painted into gold coins.>>160114919
>Also I notice that boss fights drag on for a while, is this normal or am I doing something wrong?
Hmm Tried using the shiki exclusively on them? When you get above 1000 coins at bosses if you hold it on the boss and hold c whilst tapping a coins will stream.
>>
>>160114919
just to expand a little, bullets will quickly change back to blue and continue fast if not cancelled.
>>
>>160114946
making your own routes is fun!
>>
>>160115197
>Hmm Tried using the shiki exclusively on them?
Now that I did, it does seem to do more damage. Finding good opportunities to use it without getting smacked in the face seems like it will be tough.

>>160115324
>bullets will quickly change back to blue and continue fast if not cancelled.
So they gain a speed boost if you fail to cancel them?
>>
>>160116769
>So they gain a speed boost if you fail to cancel them?
In arcade they return to default i believe, in blue label they accelerate. The skill is really all in learning to move effectively in conjunction with placing your shiki well and switching between focus and shot to maneuver. The levels are all about routing good placement going into each section. Stg archive is uploading my 51 mill pb atm so i'l link you that when its done and talk to through some aspects of it to help. Who are you using btw?

Shishin, because I liked his backstory the most and the other two looked lame.
As of right now the farthest I've gotten is somewhere after the spider cat. I've mostly just been fooling around trying to get a feeling for the game but so far this is the most I've enjoyed a Cave game, I think I'll put in a good amount of time into this one.
Also fug that graveyard, it's been giving me quite a bit of problems. Still cant into shiki placement.
>>
>>160118953
Excellent because i'm a shishin player predominately to so i'l be able to help you more when the replays uploaded. So the big thing to learn with shishin is due to his shot being multi direction it's easy to accidentally kill enemies that you're trying to use to cancel with and get twatted by bullets.

I'm bored and hungry but also tired and comfy so I don't feel like dragging my stick out and practicing even though I could really use it. So instead I'm going to attempt to start a conversation to keep the thread alive!

What kind of video game genres, outside of shmups, do the people of /shmupg/ play? Are there really people here who play exclusively shmups...? I dabble in almost all genres except MMO, MOBA, RTS, and the like. I'm going through Disgaea 3 at the moment, starting to reach out into the postgame, and I'm sure that's going to be... f-fun.
>>
>>160164573
>What kind of video game genres, outside of shmups, do the people of /shmupg/ play? Are there really people here who play exclusively shmups...?

I like to keep gaming time to a 1-3 hr maximum in the week with a little more on a sunday so i tend to focus on a single game for long periods now regardless of genre. That said I play arcade racers and have grinded for time attacks in the same way i play shmups mainly in wipeout 3,outrun 2 and ridge racer 4/V and i fucking love flatout 2. Before shmups i was hardcore into fighters namely sf3 3rd strike but shmups pulled me away big league. One of my fav games of all time that i've played through a host of times is Genji on the ps2, same setting/atmosphere as guwange which probably explains that also i went on a puzzle game 1cc binge as a break from shmups a whilst ago same with run n guns like metal slug and elevator action returns but right now i play guwange exclusively with an occasional credit in batrider and occasional go on flatout2.
>>
>>160164573
I like other arcade games, 2D platformers, TPS/FPS and WRPG's. I can honestly see myself playing exclusively shmups in a few years though. The less time I have to spend on video games the more I gravitate towards stuff that's fast paced and challenging since a session of it will leave me satisfied.
>>
>>160164573
mostly arcade action games and roguelites(isaac, spelunky etc.), but i also play shit like neptunia and mario party to chill.
>Are there really people here who play exclusively shmups...?
i'm neet, but out of 11 games i play atm i can rarely give enough attention to even half of them before the day ends, internet is too fucking addicting and i want to watch some movie/anime too. with a full-time job i'd probably focus on shmups too, i already give them more time than any other genre.

Just because you score high doesn't mean you have to make it stupidly difficult to the point where can't control it no matter how much you practice. Especially in the first 30 seconds of the game.

>Bullshit. Survival means nothing in this game. It's all about scoring.
Is that why arcadia gives clears priority over scoring runs that dont clear? You should refined your strats to be a little less risky and the clear will give you slightly more in total, god you're a noob.

I'm still far away from no-missing the game though. And bitching also doesn't make the game better.

that's not what bitching means you dumfuck. you are the one trying to be hard shit and then bitch when things don't go your way. answer me, how come players that have a higher score than you can overcome this "shitty unbalanced game design"? and how often do you hear them bitching?
>>

I'm just playing the gamehow it is meant to be played. I play for score, and for my PB, every point counts.

>how often do you hear them bitching?
I don't know, because I do not follow any of these gay forums or twitter cuck accounts. Iconoclast for example though also already "bitched" about that the game is frustrating, and he rather wants to play Mario Kart.
>>

why are you making assumptions from a question like that
>>
>>160175018
>I'm just playing the gamehow it is meant to be played.
scoring high is end-game, if not post-game content that is aimed at 1% of all players, most are happy with a clear and you haven't even got it yet. first and foremost games are meant to be fun, and believe it or not most people have fun credit-feeding through this game, most people who bought it didn't bothered to get even novice 1cc, yet user reviews are overwhelmingly positive. what i'm trying to say is, don't do what's not fun to you, becouse you sound like you are not having fun, like you are forced at a gunpoint to get PB before anything else. go try unlimited or something or finally get a clear.

>>160175508

I also don't score. Compared to top scores, my score mediocre as fuck.

>believe it or not most people have fun credit-feeding through this game
Yes, they do. For the 30 minutes they spend time playing it, sure.

>user reviews are overwhelmingly positive
Steam reviews are also full of noobs who merely spend 2 hours playing the game.

>you sound like you are not having fun
And? Life is not always just about having fun. For achievements you also have to work you know.
>>
>>160174621
Kraut is actually right. Survival in CCWI is a way to throw all your potential points away, and since you can't really score on the TLB, it gives you little. It mostly just gives you the magical clear to make your score valid. I think it is deeply satisfying to defeat the TLB in a run, though.
>>
>>160176809
>Survival in CCWI is a way to throw all your potential points away
i'm only saying that points is not the only way you can have fun with the game, it's more of a reason to continue having fun after clearing the game or way to make early levels more fun, not a reason to bitch that the game is broken. not to mention that unless someone with actual achievements(i.e. not iconoclast and other westies who were never the target audience for shmups anyway) says that it's broken, it's not.
>>160176758
>And? Life is not always just about having fun. For achievements you also have to work you know.
Unless it's WR your achievements mean anything only for you, don't take it so seriously.
>>
>>160177675
>points is not the only way you can have fun with the game, it's more of a reason to continue having fun after clearing the game
Pretty much all the top scorers on steam never played the game for survival. They played for score from day 1, because that's the way the game is meant to played.

>don't take it so seriously
I'm not taking anything too seriously. I only say that the difficulty in the game is unbalanced. You also can make games too difficult, and this game is clearly such a case. The enormous difficult spike in the first 30 seconds of the game already only proves this point. That's the problem with bullet hell games in general. They always throw so much shit at you, that the difficult partly gets out of control.

>>160178217
>Pretty much all the top scorers on steam never played the game for survival. They played for score from day 1, because that's the way the game is meant to played.
you don't know that. you said you don't follow anyone on twitter etc. it's entirely possible they got a shitty clear first just to check out the game, probably took them less than 20 hours which is fucking nothing so why not?
>You also can make games too difficult, and this game is clearly such a case
it's clearly a case of someone who is bad whining.
>I only say that the difficulty in the game is unbalanced
you are noob and aren't that good. opinion discarded.
scoring in this game was meant for someone who scored in a womb. so shut the fuck up.
>>
>>160179584
>you don't know that
Makki said it his guide, Jaimers said on youtube that he only cleared the game once, Iconoclast has so little playtime that it's very unlikely that he ever played for anything but score, and people like ISO don't play for survival anyway.

>it's clearly a case of someone who is bad whining.
Call it whatever you want. No need to get so butthurt because someone criticizes your game.
You probably never even really played the game seriously anyway.

Cave scoring is unbalanced crap. The fact that you can counterstop every second Cave game proves this point. There is no thought put at all into it.

scoring in cave games is so deep measuring it would delay release for years. something like ikarugah is a puddle in comparison.

What nobody realized was that kraut was sincere when he said ""what a fun game to play!"

>>160183526
Dumb cunt the only game that seriously underestimated scoring potential was futari 1.5 ultra, all the other counterstops are only barely achievable. The guwange WR is 103 mill with gensuke and barely 100/101 with the other 2 ie you need a perfect game and then some to get it. Cuck,

Ok if you check the replay you'll see i position myself fairly central and pull the shiki back fairly close and sweep the shiki right and left using the spawning ghost bitches to cancel, your shot will activate automatically during the shiki use and is likely to take out the back enemies anyway but if not just ignore them as if they stay alive it's more bullets to cancel. That section is always a little scary even for me i still get hit occasionally. If that strat is a bit to advanced then try to sweep cancel towards the big enemies ie start the shiki close and cancel a path of bullets leading towards the biggest risk and take them out that way. If shit gets really risky don't be afraid to let go of shiki completely and move freely to a position more safely to start the cancels again.

Sure it's nuts but the more you play the better you get at controlling your force. And it feels great when you inevitably die and lose all of your powerups, to be able to make the stage your bitch still with your powerless force.

Actually there was Simon years ago who had Shmup radio on with like every Shmup song ever released ever. I used to tune into that radio 24/7 until his harddrive crashed and he lost it. Used to hear shit I never knew existed like:

Anyways this was over 8 years ago. I've always wanted to make a spiritual successor but I just don't have that volume of music and some of the older OSTs have turned out to be hard as fuck to find.

has more of a distinguished social element, a lot of people seem to need that through a want to belong etc. Never understood it myself but there you go. I dabbled with speedrunning a little once and honestly it's not even close to as rewarding as pulling a good shmup run.

Because shmups are too difficult and competitive.
Can't really judge people for not wanting to restart a 30 minutes long game for hundrets of hours.
That's why they play easier games, and sometimes also speedrun these games.

Oh, you think shmups are your forte. But you merely adopted the shmup; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the daylight outside of the arcade until I was already a man. By then, it was nothing to me but blinding. The shmup betrays you, because it belongs to me.

>>160283175
Death of the genre due to unpopularity. It doesn't help that many companies that are literal forefathers either don't make games anymore or flat out don't make shmups anymore.

This ultimately leaves us with three categories. Obscure budget indie games that will go unnoticed because of everything that implies. A continuation of the oversaturation of bullethells which are a niche category inside of a niche category. And ports of older games done for a dime by some poor starving salary employees.

jamestown sold 640000 copies on steam, not bad for an indie. i think the future of shmups is taking the arcade element out of it and just leaving the shooting, it's not that people can't spend hundreds of hours on hard games, it's just that most players are too spoiled for delayed gratification of the arcade genre.

Yeah I can appreciate this comment. There are many many many shmups made from when I was young and playing 1945 and Thunder Force in the arcade, to their inevitable decline. While there are many I could play from that period to flesh out my library I stick mostly to the ones I know and play them in rotation; R-Type Delta, Salamander II, Metal Black, Border Down, Under Defeat, and the Ray trilogy

I don't think an appreciation for any game can be gained by playing it in passing. In taking my time I can appreciate all the effort put into a game like Salamander II or Raycrisis.

Hey /shmupg/ ! we thought you might be interested in our upcoming shmup Pawarumi !

Agreed and i like your taste in games to. There is definitely a cycle to these things that can't really be predicted until you go fully into a game for example I went from ketsui main game with irregular stabs at guwange to guwange main game which then went something like Woo this is fun>semi decent pb>fuck game long chaining im done>still got the urge to play>wtf i love game long chaining now>everyday play can't seem to play anything else>holy cheeseballs i actually beat prometheus's western record>don't even care i need to play moarrrr

I think the day you find a game that has the perfect marriage of desire to push it further balanced with enjoying the game so much that a million resets means nothing is the day you start working towards inevitable good scores and getting the most out of it.

alright /ps4g/ after extensive research i can assure that crimzon clover is meant to be played with keyboard since if you play with stick the game some enemies such as stage 3 boss and those mini stage 3 bosses on stage 5 more health

and because the regular rng bullshit isnt enough the game also adjusts the bullshit so that you are more likely to get trapped by rng bullshit rng patterns such as the one rng bullshit ridden pattern in second phase of stage 5 boss. also i noticed that your move speed sometimes increases when break mode is active but this seems to be part of the rng bullshit when played with stick because with keyboard i never saw any differences with type 1

finally just when i thought i was safe from the rng bullshit while playing mushi-rng-hime-bullshit-sama it strikes again because last time i was able to get to stage 4 with no problems but this time i realized you are never safe from the rng bullshit after restarting stage 1 and 2 for 30 mins. you can try to call rng bullshit a meme but just wait until you play this epitome of literal unfun bullshit and you will realize that it was true all along and possibly commit suicide because after playing this game you are literally unavaible to play any more games ever since the rng bullshit follows you until the end

The first loop of Batsugun Special is about as easy as you're going to get outside of novice modes. Dodonpachi Resurrection, Mushihimesama and Crimson Clover have novice modes. DDPR is probably the best one because making it to and completing the second loop isn't as insultingly easy as the others

It was on the PSN, so I bought it for $2 to play on my Vita. Persona 2 IS was the best person game and I was waiting for Persona 2 EP to go on sale.
I don't know what it is with Prime, I'll pick it up and make 1-2 hours of progress then just not touch it. It's not really my cup of tea, I really like the 2D metroids much more. I just like how there's more action it seems in the 2D metroids, where Prime it's about puzzle solving and exploring more. And it doesn't help that I get distracted easily.

Hm, that's too bad. Although, I'm not sure why dual audio would cause a delay, unless it's unrelated and this is just a bone they're trying to quell the rage with.

I don't have a PS3 or PS4 either though, so I guess it doesn't matter all that much to me either way. I still have Persona Q to start if I get an itch for Persona anyways. And if I get really desperate, there's always #FE. But I seriously doubt I'd shell out $60 for that.

Artistry means everything, the game still has a very beautiful direction. It did when it came out showing that 3D could, given an ordered and talented team, look just as good as it's 2D counterparts. No matter how many times you try to mention age that does not change that fact.

I need to vent a bit so sorry in advance.

In order to get all achievements in Starcraft 2, you need to complete this side game.

It's the shittiest, most bootlegy garbagey shoot 'em up ever. Hitboxes are fucked, completely, gameplay is fucked, controls are fucked, not rebindable. Horrible setting and horrible music and what not. You don't get points for hits but for kills only, so you need high DPS, and for high DPS you need to mash SPACEBAR. You need to clear it multiple times because enemies can ram into you from anywhere. It's fucking retarded.

Has anybody here completed it?

Well yeah we removed the UI because it was too rough at that time.

Basically you have to do colours combination between your weapon and the enemies to trigger different effects.

Depending of how you want to play you can adapt your strategy on the fly really quickly. And when you manage to know the game pretty well, you'll have to juggle the mechanics to push your score at the top of the leaderboard.

Try to picture it as a super improved rock paper scissor. Very intuitive but with a lot of depth

You're one step closer to how real men play. Irrespective of your skill, there's a beauty to setting the shmup up right in accordance with arcade conventions. I hate farmers who substitute, though.

Playing any shmups but Touhou is delusional. Do you seriously think you're just going to be fine? When you get good and realize with the utmost clarity that there is no challenge to be found in arcade STG, you will turn to the real deal: the Touhou series. So you'll start up Perfect Cherry Blossom Lunatic, and you can't even dodge anything. You just wasted thousands of hours playing primitive arcade shooters disguised as hardcore STG. You're going to spend thousands more learning the TRUE pixel perfection of unfocused grazing. There's Yu-suke among the onlookers of your stream, but you can't graze worth a damn and he's not going to see a reason to respect you as a player. Already, he has left. Yeah, Bananamatic was a CAVE warrior, and he suffered for it, forever bound to his dead arcade scene of the most basic shit, unable to impress anyone of importance anymore.

I used an example to help prove a point, as that's how examples work. Maybe it's time for you to finish school.

I prefer R-Type Delta graphics tbqh because of how much detail it packs in its levels, the cool use of colours and better effects for things like explosions, lasers and smoke. Einhander's levels are very simple, barren and repetitive in comparison but it does still look good.

Cee here I use a snes usb pad and yes you need 3 button setup to do the coin milk.

>>160498615
>esprade harder than guwange
Nah not at all not even close actually unless you're talking about scruby as possible clears and even then it's close, if you venture into scoring then just no, getting over half the wr in esprade took me barely a 1/5 of the effort getting half of the wr took in guwange and that's being generous.

>>160497890
>matmouse playing the easiest shumps in the world!
Nah I'm actually the western record holder for karous, like most shmups it becomes very hard when you get above a certain score threshold and in karous's case you have to do a lot of suicide hits and item juggling hoping for the item that changes bullets to items to appear which is very luck based. I know you're a dumb cunt that references the japanese list as if its a bible but that is a purely survival based list that never factors in scoring.
>>

And yet you still can't understand the difference between objectivity and subjectivity on top of the fact iproved your example is terrible, guess it's true what they say about millennials being the first gen to go to uni and come out dumber than they went in. HURRR PROFESHUNAL REVIEWEERZ, you are so dumb for real.

>I know you're a dumb cunt that references the japanese list as if its a bible but that is a purely survival based list that never factors in scoring.
I know it's survival based list. But even so it's fucking misleading. Raiden Fighters 2 1cc with TLB ranked 2? What the heck man. Asuka & Asuka I almost ragequited because of its retarded shot power.
The list should be discouraged to use for difficulty references.

You're the one who said 3D can't look as good as 2D. You're also the one who kept using the phrase "age" when talking about artistry. Remember this?
>>160365198
>artistry means shit when the entire game looks rough as ass.

And what in the world are you trying to steer the conversation into? Here's a refresher of your statements:

>>160364862
>The visual artistry in R-Type Delta is still above many of today's games standards.
wat, it's a ps1 cereal box 3d game. 2d doesnt age poorly like old 3d has.


>guess it's true what they say about millennials being the first gen to go to uni and come out dumber than they went in. HURRR PROFESHUNAL REVIEWEERZ, you are so dumb for real.
What does this even mean? And why do people in their early 20's call people older than them millennials.

Honestly the mental gymnastics you're trying to pull for the sake of winning an argument is silly.

Playing as any character but Casper is delusional. Do you seriously think you're just going to be fine? When you get good and realize with the utmost clarity that there is no challenge to be found in Windia, you will turn to the real deal: Casper. So you'll start up Port Town on level 3, and you can't even dodge anything. You just wasted thousands of hours playing a primitive character disguised as an astronaut. You're going to spend thousands more learning the TRUE pixel perfection of unfocused point blanking. There's Harry among the onlookers of your stream, but you can't point blank worth a damn and he's not going to see a reason to respect you as a player. Already, he has left. Yeah, Bananamatic was a Windia warrior, and he suffered for it, forever bound to his soulless character and the most basic bitch, unable to impress anyone of importance anymore.
