You know, the guy that made the music for the Deathsmiles DBCS DLC is WASi303, who also coincidentally made the music for a really, really obscure budget 3D shmup on PS1 called Sanvein. And the music was really, really good! The best part about it, really.

Interesting that not only is he still around, he has made it as far as getting to make some music for a Darius game now. Cool.

WASi303 also did the music for the Ketsui and Mushihimesama arrange albums.

Half of Psyvariar 2 was him up to and including the theme for the Last Boss which... fits really well for some odd reason.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbaA1qIx-C4
VGMDB has him on Psyvariar 1 but I didn't play that game nor imported the album so..

While I don't like him as much as Yack or MEGA he's pretty good too.

You know I never played pink sweets but I own the album and it's arranged sister. I should fix that one day.

>>162754149
It's not exactly like that. To graze you must constantly alternate between opposite side movements on the stick so that you can roll (spin). The circles he's doing is while, at the same time, rolling, making sure not to hit dead spots (and then hitting them anyways and dying)

So it's not like going WASDW it's going ADADWAWSWSDADAADADSWSWSADADWSWSDADADWADWSWSAD. And I don't know about you but I haven't learned to play the piano.

Damn nice post ive been after the sanvein ost for a whilst... a fun little ps1 title aswell.

>>162754564
>To graze you must constantly alternate between opposite side movements on the stick so that you can roll (spin).

Wrong, after you start spin with a quick alternate input the spin continues endlessly along as you keep moving.
>>
>>162755990
Sure but unless I'm mistaken, you need to alternate in order to buzz the same bullet.


>>162755692
>sanvein ost for a whilst
Physical or digital? If the latter I might be able to help you.
>>
>>162755692
Sanvein did get an OST release in 2007 way after the game came out, but even finding an MP3 download for that is next to impossible. I downloaded it once, but that was years ago. Finding a lossless version let alone the CD is probably never gonna happen...
>>
>>162756419
>Physical or digital? If the latter I might be able to help you.
don't sweat it lad i can rip it from youtube now.

>>162756520
Aye desu my fav sanvein bit is the hype as fuck jungle explosion between stages.

>>162756419
>Sure but unless I'm mistaken, you need to alternate in order to buzz the same bullet.

No it's just that the nature of the beast makes you have to if you get what im saying, the hoops gluon fires out for example will keep buzzing if you are spinning and just moving around the perimeter. If you have the port roll button you'll see that spinning just grazes but you aren't having to achieve the rolling+navigation that you do without it. Medium unit the first game is the one where bullets only singularly graze afaik.

>>162754793
Anything would be amazing, honestly. Thank you!

>>162757556
thats a fact of demographic to game ratio though and not related to the point of skill ceiling we were talking about earlier with a little gus subjectivity throw in earlier. A game that no one plays hypothetically but with a super high skill ceiling doesn't stop having that skill ceiling just because no ones bothered to discover it.

>>
>>162759682
Whether i've experience something personally or not does not stop said thing existing, it just stop it being recognized in my consciousness. Poohou has more players per game than probably any other shmup so no surprise that its been pushed (despite being shit) that doesn't mean it has a greater skill ceiling than other games though and if you think it does why don't any of those top touhou players have cave world records yet?
>>
>>162760185
I never said it has a higher skillceiling, the discussion sprung from someone saying it has a lower one (so that statement would have to be proven rather than disproven)

This has surprisingly been a fun and much needed experience from my Border Down attempts. When I'm not just playing Border Down to take a break from my 1cc border Down attempts

Has anybody else played it. Shinji Hosoe really helped bring out the experience I've come to expect from that sort of collab.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PLq_RyXNuQ

Not unlike how he helped flesh out the final stage in Under Defeat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mE3o_Kiw5Q
Especially when you get to the super tank and it super tanks all over you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaUw5k0cA1E
On the topic of Under Defeat, the very first time I beat him was on Hard. Because after losing multiple times to him on normal I forgot that I set my practice settings to hard. It took almost 4 hours to do it without dying.

I think the midbosses are also screwed up, they reside at the highest point possible on the screen, and the stage 2 boss in particular moves himself backwards and offscreen partway through his attack pattern.

Where the graphics in CCWI done in 3d or 2D?
To me they look like 3D models captured from different angles and then used as sprites, but in an interview he says that he actually had to draw the sprites.

Learn when and where enemies will spawn throughout the stage. Start thinking how you will link from one group of enemies to another, rather than trying to learn the whole thing at once. Watch replays, both high and low level, and see what that player does, trying to incorporate it into your own route.

>>162804215
It seems Fightcade only does CPS1 and CPS2, and fighting games generally.
>>
>>162804289
I played some Twinkle Star Sprites with an anon in the Steam group using Fightcade just a few months ago, around when the port was brought to Steam, though it was limited to pretty much just that. Sorry I can't be more help.
>>
>>162804461
I just checked the games list and it seems to be based on whatever that old version of Final Burn Alpha supports. So it supports Guwange, DoDonPachi, EspRaDe, GigaWing, but not Gunbird, Parodius, etc.

I bought DSCS and all the DLC last week when the game was more than half off on PSN. All in all I got everything for 40 bucks, which is good considering its the cheapest I've ever seen it.

That beings said, I always hear people going on about the price. Having had played the game for the past week I can safely say, knowing what I know now, I would gladly pay full price.

Familiarity and preference, whats the fucking mystery?
>>
>>162810529
Oh yeah, I know. But I think I'll just emulate it to be honest. Hopefully it works!
>>
>>162812336
shitty emulation over hardware and game for a tiny price? really? guess you're on food stamps.
>>
>>162812431
actually with a little bit of elbow grease and some magic you can finagle the emulation to be the superior version of the two options.

Really the only thing you lose is the information given by the VMU but it's not really that important. Naturally owning a copy certainly feels better but really, if the end goal is fun, who cares.

>>162809256
I recommend it. It's one of my favorites. Even if I'm not exactly the best at it.
>>
>>162812431
Well no, but I don't feel like buying a DC if it's not gonna benefit anyone, especially since I'd just burn the game as well.

Maybe the emulation is good, too.
>>
>>162812531
>to be the superior version of the two options.
No you can't unless you know how to make input lag disappear?

>>162812594
>but I don't feel like buying a DC if it's not gonna benefit anyone
Da fuck? it's going to benefit YOU as any purchase should. Come on people this idiocy is tiresome.
>>
>>162812854
>No you can't unless you know how to make input lag disappear?
ah good point. That said, of the two I don't notice a change in performance. Though I might not be good enough to make that call regardless so.
>>

>>162812946
The last interview I read is that he didn't want to just do a simple port since there are a lot of things with Border Down he felt was unfinished, but he couldn't make a call like that because he's the president of a company.

Having responsibility must be suffering. Maybe one day it'll come back. But I ain't gonna cross my fingers.
>>
>>162812990
Kek. No, but I feel like emulation will probably be good enough for me until they do re-release it. Input lag is never good, but surely it can't be that bad. I mean it'd have to be a lot for it to make any difference, let alone for it to impede your gameplay.
Besides, playing with it might increase your skill level even further!

Getting a DC, setting it up and even finding the space for it would be quite a hassle too, to be honest. I've got my PS2 and GC still hooked up, and I don't feel like managing all that shit with even more consoles! I'll probably get a PS4 soon too, so that's gonna complicate things anyway!

>>162813057
Damn. But the map with the stages looks really massive. I hope they do it some time...

>Damn. But the map with the stages looks really massive. I hope they do it some time...
It'd be nice. I mean G.Rev is still alive moving into this day. I'm sure if they can put out a big hit they'd have all the funding necessary to put it onto another platform moving forward.
>>
>>162813563
>Input lag is never good, but surely it can't be that bad.
to flip the script then i'd say become good with the lag and if/when a real version shows up you'll instantly improve.
>>
>>162814340
Yeah, G.Rev is working on DBCS now so they're well alive and could probably revive Border Down at some point! We may just have to ask them to!

>>162814617
I will! I'm interested to see how big the difference might be.
>>
>>162817302
I was curious about that. DBCS has been out for a while. I assumed it was finished development. I know its getting 2 new DLC packs but it seemed like they made such a big deal about G.Rev taking control of development at TGS. Are all they only doing DLC? or do they have bigger plans for the game?

>>162817697
That's a good question!
I really wonder.

So, Pyramid made the original DB, DBAC and now DBCS. And DBCS is a complete, huge game. With DLC now too. What can G.Rev possibly add to it, aside from more DLC? I mean, imagine if they made an entirely new arcade mode or something. If they bothered to do that that'd be insane, and fantastic.

I wonder why they changed devs at all though. Maybe Pyramid wanted to do something else I guess. A dev change like that implies long-term support, maybe for years to come. But if it was just for DLC, why would G.Rev even bother? It IS Darius though, so it's a big thing for them probably, which it should be!

Maybe the CAVE DLCs are already by G.Rev, too.

It's very mysterious! One thing I wish for though it'll never happen, is for them to put in a mode with the original DB's campaign and story, that was lost in the arcade and home version.

The arcade endings are really quite plain. It's mostly just variations of "you destroyed the Belsar fleet, great."
The original PSP version has much more Darius-y, personal endings from what I saw. I want to know what they're about!

Well I know the twitter page has been having surveys about what series people want to see for DLC, R-type and Gradius are always high.

After the Cave and Raijing DLC I'd really like to see Irem and Konami DLC. But yeah i wished CS mode had more story to it as well. The first few missions have some really bland flavor text, which after a while just tapers off to nothing until you beat the game.

But even if it is just ends up being DLC, as a huge fan of this game its pretty exciting to see it get picked up for any kind of development so far after launch.
>>
>>162818952
Agreed. DBCS deserves all the love!

It feels like it's almost more beneficial just to grind gold until you can buy enough shot upgrades to mow through everything, rather than trying to approach it like a typical shmup. Even if you can dodge well, the bosses are absolute damage sponges unless your shot is high enough level.

And yeah I can barely get halfway through stage 2 myself most of the time on Maniac.

I don't even play with the sound on. The in-game advertisement videos that pop up sometimes are like four times louder than the game's own audio for some reason, so I just keep it on silent.

I just, like... goddammit, how can they have fucked it up this badly? Give Mahou Otome shit for the emphasis on waifubait if you want but the gameplay is 10x more polished than Gold Label. Gold Label just feels so sloppy.

What's babbys first cave game? I'm really awful rn.
>>
>>162879934
Mushihimesama Novice Original
>>
>>162879934
Deathsmiles or Espgaluda. Mushihimesama has a novice mode if you want to ease yourself into it; it's useful to learn where and when enemies spawn, and how Reco controls.
>>
>>162879934
donpachi becouse really simple scoring system or batsugun sp becouse proto-cave.
shmups are for scoring!
>>
>>162879934
Mushihimesama and DDP Resurrection have novice modes. Deathsmiles has a fairly low difficulty in general.
>>
>>162880060
>>162880104
>>162880239

K, I have Deathsmiles, so I'll mash that for a bit. I'll have to pick up Mushihimesama.

Thanks.

>>162880745
When's stream?
>>
>>162880745
afaik these games have rather convoluted scoring systems, playing any cave game for pure survival is missing out, which is why i think you should play donpachi, where you basically just wait until there is enough enemies on screen and then smash that mf fire button to score.
>>
>>162880779
I'm actually at my parents for the break and only have a 360 and my macbook :^), or else I would.

>>162880976
Ok, I'll download it too.
>>
>>162880976
Donpachi scoring is brutal beyond very small chains.
>>
>>162880976
Seconding what >>162882163 said. I can get several-hundred kill chains effortlessly in later games, but DonPachi requires way better routing to get anything actually notable.
>>
>Twitch announcing IRL
w-we could make use of this shmups related, right /shmupg/ ?

also mobile broadcasting, maybe with this we can stream mobage like Gomaotsu or Gold Label, soon.
>>
>>162882163
>>162882314
i'm not talking about difficulty, but complexity. of course it's brutal to score at high level, but the system itself is quite simple to understand which allows new players to create their own routes, which is a lot more fun than copying or just surviving even if your routes are shit.

It's really hard to pick a single song because I like all of them so much. That said, if we're on the topic of the remix mode tracks my favorite actually the boss from c3.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LlHlB-D6bk
I don't know what is. Sounds "spacey" I guess. There's something about it that makes me not mind spending a lot of time in practice mode on this fight.

In the original mode my favorite would have to be lost temple.

I never generally here it all the way through as you have to be on border red on stage 4 and I'm not at the level of skill necessary.

Good shit there as well. Yeah you make a good point, it really is hard to nail down just one song from that game. Shame it never got to live on beyond arcades and Dreamcast.

if Under Defeat and Strania can make it, Border Down will make it too. But hey it's not unlikely for us to see the Antares-XX in DBCS and that'd be pretty swell.

In Mushi Original you just have to collect as many gems as possible and not die, outside of a few advanced scoring techniques.

Naw. gareggas original bullets are cool. I actually like them. They feel like real bullets, not like fucking marshmallows like in modern games.

they look stupid af desu, real bullets are so fast you can see them only if it's tracer ammo, and the glowing marshmallows look a lot closer to tracers(which can be of any color).
>it's harder so it's better
the version with invisible bullets would be the best due to realism and difficulty then. just like in korea, gramps.

There are no visibility issues. You just gotta play the game, then you also learn to see the bullets better, and memorized where to look for them.
>>
>>162917589
Of course they don't behave like real bullets, but they are kinda like needles, which is cool.
It gives the game a cool feeling.

>>
>>162922985
>tha bullets are more "realistic" in a shmup where everyone uses "secret" fantasy ships
Except for the secret ships, I actually always liked this "realistic" feeling about Garegga.
The game really feels like a little modelbuilding of a steampunk world, and the needle bullets play a huge part in this.

Welcome to shmups. These games just need practice, that's how they work.

At least it's not like Psikyo, where you can't react at all.
>>
>>162923286
Most shmups have visible bullets that you don't have to train yourself to see because they match the color of the background.
>>
>>162923369
Psikyo games have bullets which you also can't see, because they fly so fast, you can't react to them.
But that's good too. Shmups should have different styles and not always be the same.

In Garegga you just gotta train your eyes to see the bullets, which is ok.
>>
>>162923580
>In Garegga you just gotta train your eyes to see the bullets, which is ok.
Nah, it's a complete shit meme game that people like because they can pretend the died on purpose to reduce rank.

>>
>>162923698
play type 2 then like i do, most bullets are perfectly visible, of course they aren't purple like in modern shmups, but the bullet density is nowhere near either.
>implying tactical dying is not real
if you are good and therefore score high you get so much extends dying on purpose is a must. and if you are just starting, knowing that dying at least made the game easier is always nice and keeps you from being frustrated at stupid mistakes, but of course if you'll keep dying you won't beat the game. can you at least beat it?

Is Garegga worth the acquisition right now or should I hold out for a possible NA/EU release? Is there any indication it will be coming to Steam?

Most people prefer to not lose something, than to gain something of the same value. It's called loss aversion in psychology.

Do you think it could be fun to have a shmup, where you start with a certain amount of score, and then rather have to watch out not losing points, instead gaining points?
>>
>>162955298
I think that would be a neat concept with a pretty unfortunate side effect. If everybody starts off with the same max, at some point playthroughs will be nothing but scores at the same range

Besides, part of the fun of scoring is to see a small number get astronomically bigger.
>>
>>162955451
>playthroughs will be nothing but scores at the same range
well, if you start with a big number, and put in many high punishments in the game, not really
you just constantly have to punish the player, for example letting enemies escape, or something like that
>>
>>162955786

>>162955451
>I think that would be a neat concept with a pretty unfortunate side effect. If everybody starts off with the same max, at some point playthroughs will be nothing but scores at the same range
Theoretically this is already how they work. In any given shmup there is a maximum possible score. As you play the maximum possible number drops while you aren't doing optimal scoring techniques.
>>
It would be interesting to play some shmups for the lowest possible score. Obviously you would have to get a 1cc.
>>
>>162955298
afaik there is a mode in recca where you start with 50 lives and your score depends on how much lives you kept.
>>
>>162954764
At least it looks pretty.
>>
>>162957480
"Theoretically" yes but how many times have players discovered new tricks that drastically increased their scores? A score which is constantly going down removes all element of surprise.
>>
>>162965765
>but how many times have players discovered new tricks that drastically increased their scores?
If you aren't copying superplays? Regularly.
>>
>>162965765
Also don't forget that even if you don't count exploits, shmup devs don't have a very good idea of what the scoring potential in their games is. When you have a system that's filled with all sorts of small details and complexities it becomes unreasonable to expect them to playtest the games to the point where they'd reach the optimal score, or anywhere near it really.
>>

>>162966371
There are a bunch of examples from interviews but this one comes to mind from the Dodonpachi CAVE interview on shmuplations :
>Kouyama: Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about—a score no mere mortal can dream of. (laughs) When we do the playtesting, we set the board to invincibility mode and calculate what the limits are on scoring. But we only got to about 400m when we did that!! (laughs) I mean, seriously… 600m? (laughs)

>A score which is constantly going down removes all element of surprise
Why would it remove surprise? You still don't know the max score of the game, since it most likely won't be the one you have at the beginning.

Anyway, I think the only problem with such a system is just that it psychologically feels better to gain points, than losing points all the time.

Daily reminder that Crimzon Clovers playtester was a girl, to make sure the game is not too hard.

So if you can't beat it, it means you play worse than girl.

> In your first days you codeveloped some titles with other companies, such as Ikaruga (with Treasure), so you could get enough capital and develop your own games. Now something similar has happened with Gulti and Mamoru-kun, in this case being G.rev the company which others have collaborated with. Do you believe that the Japanese industry is “opened” to this kind of collaborations or maybe the “big ones” should help a little more the “newborn” ones?

g.rev codeveloped ikaruga? never knew this.

Anon that bought DBCS the other day here. Can someone explain it to me? I played it for the first time and wasn't sure what was happening.

How do the green, red, white, and blue power ups work? Is there any reason not to take them all?

I never died but I think I got hit. You don't die in one hit?

Are there bombs or extends?

How does the beam weapon work exactly?

I "won" but only played through three stages. This is a mission based game instead of a standard arcade type of game?

Oh boy okay.

Green spheres level up your bombs. Blue Levels up your sheild and red spheres level up your main gun. You should grab them. White spheres are points and gold spheres kill all enemies on the screen.

You can take a few hits because you have a shield. The color of the force-field around your ship indicates how many hits you can take. You die in one hit once it's gone.

Some of the ships have bombs, they recharge with your burst meter. The main ships have a charge beam instead.

Beam capable ships have two types of beams, one that fire out of the front of your ship and one you can drop on the map. They're assigned to different buttons.

If you drop your beam or movie into a bosses red beam just as they attack you fire back a powerful golden counter beam.

If you played arcade mode then yes you win in three stages but you have choices: A, B, C. Basically the top most choice is always the easiest path. so in Arcade A, D, H is the easiest path. If you want a harder challenge take the bottom routes starting at C.

CS mode is mission based. Small sets of stages with unique parameters. There are around 3,000 missions. Things like: Boss rushes, defense missions, time attacks, using certain ships with certain load-outs etc.

Hope that helps.
>>
>>163066528
Thanks!

>Blue Levels up your sheild
So you take less damage when you get hit or is it just extra hp?

>They're assigned to different buttons.
I missed this completely. Is there any reason not to use the laser or is it ok to go wild with it?

Is there anywhere that gives a detailed description of each ship? Also, how can you tell which bullets are destructible?

So usually I use the fixed lazer. Its easier to drop it somewhere and position it in a way that's beneficial to me. Then I can keep it going longer by flying around and destroying stuff.

as for what destroys what, I'm new to the game myself and not entirely sure. I know each ship has like three theirs of main gun and that depending on the stage sometime yous don't want to grab those red spheres. (for example a fully leveled tier one gun might be more beneficial to an unpowered tier two gun that you'd advance to if you grabbed a sphere)

But yeah each tier tier of your main gun destroys something specifically (bullets, lazer shots, etc). I think there's a good "newbie guide" somewhere on steam where I learned this as there doesn't seem to be anywhere in the game stat specifically describes what each ship does.

Oh and you change the direction of the fixed lazer by moving while NOT firing your main gun. It'll stay in play while you fire, and swivel on an axis in conjunction to your movement if you let go of your main fire button.

A quite important thing to remember is also that shot types cancel each other out.

So when you know a certain boss uses mostly laser shots, you might want to keep a level 4 laser rather than advancing to the level 1 wave shot! It will make your life much easier because you'll have to dodge less stuff and you do more damage too.

Yes, shields are just extra hits! I heard that your hitbox is also bigger when you have a shield to make up for it I suppose.

Use the fixed beam at your leisure. I like to use it to quickly kill off annoying larger enemy types, and otherwise I like to use it in ways where it is self-sustaining, because when it cancels shots and destroys ships, you gain energy back.

Also, it's nowhere near +3000 missions but there's an incredible amount regardless!

Well, Max Payne is up there too...

But MP plays very differently from most TPS anyway! Most TPS took RE4's mechanics and made them even more action-focused! So if we're talking about TPS in that vein, Vanquish is without a doubt the single best TPS ever, and BD closely follows! MP however was way before any of that but it's no less fantastic...

Zuntata are the best! Nothing like shmupping to a slow, slightly jazzy, psychedelic track like this!
For some reason it always reminds me of Pink Floyd, even though I only know a handful of their songs, which I need to remedy sometime! In my mind this is just the kind of impression that I have of them and their sound. I wonder if I'm right or wrong.

Deathsmiles takes place in some fantasy early-20th-century era (or maybe it was 19th, I forget) world called Gilverado. The five Deathsmiles girls are formerly from real countries (Windia and Sakura are from England, Casper from Germany, Follett from France, and Rosa from California/USA) but after each of them met with near-death experiences at some point in their lives, they cheated death by escaping through a magic portal that suddenly appeared to them, which spits them out in Gilverado. Going through the portal also has the additional benefit of giving whoever uses one magical powers, so that's a plus on top of the whole not-dying thing.

The four playable characters were found and adopted by a man named Dior, and now the four of them live in a kickass mansion in exchange for fighting monsters with their magical powers and protecting the useless citizens of Gilverado.

Sakura's situation is unique though. She was only the second of the five girls to arrive in Gilverado, after Rosa. Her backstory is vague but her parents wound up coming through the magic portal with her. They all gained magical powers, except maybe her mom who might've just gotten magical AIDS instead. Anyways, since the townsfolk weren't used to people with magical powers at the time, Sakura's family were not met warmly by the people and forced to live out in the swamp lands. Sakura adopted her witch persona to frighten off anyone who might think of trying to attack them. I guess it worked because now she's the fearsome swamp witch.

Also both of the other guys who replied to you are just messing with you.

Yeah actually, I think it was a car crash. The car itself most likely went through the portal as well, as a car can be seen near the end of the swamp level.

Rosa was the first girl to arrive in Gilverado, at the age of 9. After what is only vaguely described as a "car accident" left her absolutely fucked up, she somehow or another slipped through the portal and was discovered half-dead by Dior, who used his own magic to nurse her back to health. Apparently no scars, either.

Three years later, at the age of 10, was Sakura with her parents in a car accident of their own. Nothing else is really said for sure on them.

In the same year, Casper came to Gilverado at only 6 years old after vaguely being "kidnapped and locked up" by a group of men who eventually tried to kill her. What exactly happened to her, or why, is never revealed.

One year later, at the age of 10, Follett fell in a river and nearly drowned, at which point she went through the portal.

About three years after that, Windia was kidnapped at the age of 13, and somehow or another came to a near-death experience. There's actually an entire drama CD chapter dedicated to depicting the event. I have the file but I don't understand Japanese so I don't know most of what happened, but it sounds like she was kidnapped by the mafia and at some point was attacked with a knife which led to the portal opening for her. Six months after Windia arrived in Gilverado is when the first Deathsmiles game takes place.

>>
>>163122596
In the year 2054, chaos spreads over the globe as global warming finally exacts its toll on Earth: the ice caps quickly melt, causing a tremendous series of cataclysms and for entire nations to disappear under the sea. The near apocalyptic setting and the quickly depleting resources of the remaining dry lands force nations into constant war, eventually culminating into World War III; all efforts by the United Nations to cease hostilities are thwarted by a seemingly endless supply of technologically advanced weaponry being sold to each side of every conflict. After investigation, the source is tracked back to EVAC Industry co. ltd, an arms dealer who's been reaping tremendously high profits from the situation, at times directly intervening to fuel the hostilities with utter disregard towards human lives; any attempt to negotiate with the board of directors has utterly failed, the earnings having proven high enough for the company to build its own cities, shipyards, defensive emplacements and even a private airport, to the point of assembling its own army of extremely well equipped mercenary troops.

Being unable to enter the fray officially, the UN sets up a strike team of four pilots, each pair given one of two advanced helicopters: the plan is to simulate a rebellion within EVAC forces and bring down the company's headquarters, where research on a series of tremendous warmachines is taking place; for this reason, the planes both bear EVAC insignia and callsigns and are built according to stolen prototype blueprints - by no means, in success or failure, must the operation be traced back to the United Nations. However, for all this secrecy to be effective, even in victories the assault choppers will have to be destroyed... and the pilots killed. However, to compensate for their sacrifice, the UN shall fulfill one of their wishes, no matter what it is. And this, on board a stolen EVAC carrier plane, is how the story begins...

And then the sequel, there's Supe and Lei, both from Denmark. While ice skating, the 7 year old Supe fell through the ice and froze/drowned to (near) death while her 12 year old brother Lei dove into the water in a futile attempt to save her, where they both went through the portal and ended up in Gilverado.

Apparently Lei wears girls clothes in DS2 because he's masquerading as one of Dior's angels for profit.

With every mission you finish you get points you can spend! Basically your score divided by 1000 or something.
Sometimes you also get points even if you fail.

Raizing? To me it rather is like Dodonpachi, but with a more intuitive scoring system.
>>
>>163163363
>Raizing? To me it rather is like Dodonpachi,
Then you're a fucking idiot who probably can't even play it, it has raizings medals, almost identical raizing hitbox, raizing esque scoring tricks and even raizing style enemy bulletts and patterns with multi jointed bosses that can be pulled a part. It's so fucking far away from cave it's in a chalet getting finger banged by big foot.
>>
>>163163549
The medals are not raizing style. They don't fall down, and you have to trigger them with your beam shot.

The beam shot is very similar to the Dodonpachi laser, except that it has to recharge. Plus like in DDP you also go into focus mode when using it. Which also shows that the bullet density is similar to DDP. Raizing has no focus modes, since their patterns are completely different.

You also don't have any options or multiple shot choices like Raizing games. You merely have the same ship in different variations, just like in DDP.
>>
>>163163549
Let's say it's a mix between DDP, Raizing, and Psikyo, with its own style. That woudl describe it the best, imo.
>>
>>163163907
>Which also shows that the bullet density is similar to DDP
You haven't played it past stage 1 have you? There is a rare as fuck version called cyvern plus which IS cyvern made cave style and the medals may not fall but they raise in value precisely in the same way raizing do and being revealed via ground destruction IS raizing also. It plays nothing like a cave game.
>>
How am I supposed to kill the Violent Ruler as Tiger Schwartz in DBCS. I'm pretty sure I can't beam clash with him
>>
>>163158312
It can't be that hard, just look. I think it's when you select a level you have options to pick your ship and power up your shot/option/shield

Any Raiden games
G-Darius
Darius Gaiden
Metal Black

Top Tier:
Ikaruga
Dodonpachi
Batsugun Special
Armed Police Batrider
Crimson Clover

Dodonpachi DaiOuJou

Decent (judged on at least 10 hours):
Gradius V

Ib - still can't see the bullets - ara
Anything built on the ugly Cave 1000B engine.
>>
>>163187727
Darius Gaiden, Raiden II and/or Ketsui.

Alternatively, stop being a bitch and play Battle Garegga or Ibara until your eyes stop fucking up.
>>
>>163187727
I'm biased towards Border Down. So I'd recommend Border Down.

Mate if a mission has more than 7 levels you may as well assume it's gonna end on a fucking GT or worse a Gigantic Bite fight and not bother. I mean GT is hard but doable, even Azure Nightmare is, but Gigantic Bite is fucking ridiculous.

let me guess, its the pattern that comes at you diagonally that's getting to you?
it's a hard pattern to grasp at first but once you become familiar with your hitbox it becomes a lot easier than you'd think
stick to mostly horizontal movement, and remember that all bullets have smaller hitboxes than their visuals, especially big bullets like those big round ones

Play Gradius V motherfucker.

>>163187727
My recommendation is Battle - check your eyesight - Garegga. I play it on a goddamn laptop and it's definitily not bad enough to discard the game, plus the bullets are pretty original, it's a nice break from glowing dots.
