what are the strategies for this?
It seems like I cant get past the gray robots without getting fucked as soon as I make it to a new screen since they shoot fast diagonal shots
is there a specific order to exit screens so the enemy placement isnt against you? Very rarely, Ive had screens where there's only a few on screen far away from me, so I can plan accordingly and deal with them
Watch out not to get a heart attack.

Nah, it's pretty much just random. Unfortunately the 2600 version is pretty much the worst compared to 5200 or Vectrex. but you just have to learn the angles till you can fire as soon as you come around a corner.
>>3970194
why was the artwork for 2600 cartridges always so good? it made the NES's laughable cartridges look like shit by comparison

>they shoot fast diagonal shots
The robots don't fire diagonally at me the little bit I've played. Only horizontal and vertical.
Do they fire diagonal later on?

Found yer problem. You're not playing the game in your pic.

Im playing it on MAME

Because 2600 graphics were shit and misleading artwork was a contributing factor to the video game crash. Nintendo wised up and didn't try to upsell the graphics of its games (at least not early on)
>>3972272
No you're not. You're playing a different game on MAME. I'm beginning to suspect I know the root of your problem.

Im using the emuparadise rom of bezerk
>>3973218
Emuparadise never made any games. Let alone one called "bezerk". I'm >9000% sure I know the root of your problem. Global rule #2 was supposed to solve it but it's obviously not working.

It's kids like you that have turned this place to shit.

>the guy who knows how games work is a tard
Top kek kid. I'm not interested in a fight. I'm learning a millennial how to communicate with higher (normal) intelligence beings. It's a good thing. His parents have obviously failed but I'm here to pick up the slack. All for the sake of a less shitty board. I'm not sure if the shit that drools from your fingers will be any better when it's typed in pre safe space language but I'm willing to give it a go. Are you willing to better yourself?
>>3973316
dude asks for help, and you call him an idiot then show off how you're better than him. You're cancer.
OP, you posted the cover art for the Atari2600 version, but you said you're playing the MAME version. Which of these three screenshots matches the game you're playing? It will help us figure out what you're playing.inb4 someone calls me an idiot for making a "mistake"
>>3976039
Middle pic definitely
>>3976039
The dude is an ass clown who just installed mame on his aspberry and doesn't even know what he's playing. That's not even cancer though. White knighting ass licking circle jerking faggots like you are.

I went to a local arcade IRL, saw they had Berzerk on it, played it, ejoyed it, and went home and dowloaded it for myself so I could play it. I dont have a pi
>>3970286
This. I like the artwork of 70's/80's sci-fi.
>>3976380
That's the arcade version. The levels are supposed to be randomly generated, I dimly recall something about messing with the random seed but I have to find it again, it was a super-obscure thing in a technical article. Doesn't get you anything other than knowing the wall placement in advance.
You get like 1 second at the start of a new room to see the layout. Use that second to find a safe place to run to. It's always easier to shoot at things when you aren't being shot at.
When you fire, you stop moving. You can use this to move pixel-by-pixel by holding down the fire button and releasing it briefly. You can use this to poke your head above a wall to shoot -- the robots are shorter than you, so you should have juuuust enough height to get your arm past it before they get their arms over it.

Why do you even keep replying? Do you just enjoy having the piss taken?
