DARIUS BURST CHRONICLE SAVIOURS (STEAM/PS4/Vita)

[Shepardus]

Considering DBAC was made for a Taito Type X2, which isn't exactly the most powerful system, I think it's still worth a shot.

Noticed something important on CS mode: pushing TAB on a mission swaps the mission type & leaderboard. So if it's an alternate route mission you can see leaderboards for the different routes. If that node had a WARNING mission you can replay it and view the leaderboard. edit: Button 6 on a controller or on console does the same. These nodes have 06 with an orange background in the bottom left.

edit2:
Does anyone happen to know where the music in this stage is from? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdQjZNaxIhQ sounds like some remix of the whole darius series. It's clearly switching to G-Darius at the end.

Track 24 from the original Darius Burst OST, I LED NU-RED-GAS
Fun fact, the title of the song can be rearranged to spell "Darius Legend"

Edit:
I believe this is the full song list of songs remixed in this medley, in order of appearance
Chaos - Darius
SFX from Darius Gaiden
World of Spirit - Darius Burst
Boss 7 - Darius
Say PaPa - Darius II
Visionnerz - Darius Gaiden
Self - Darius Gaiden
Adam - G Darius

That's a track called "I LED NU-RED-GAS" from the original Burst soundtrack. It was used in some of the Mission Mode stages, IIRC, and is indeed a remix of several tracks spanning the whole series. It goes through "Chaos" and "Boss Scene 7" from the original game, "Say PaPa" from Darius II, "Self" from Gaiden and then that bit of "Adam".

Edit: too late!

Just one minute too late

Silly question but, there's no way my Core i7 laptop w/ Intel HD 3000 graphics can run this, right?

You shouldn't have any issues; I'm also using a core i7 laptop, and I'm getting 60 FPS.

I'm not actually sure if the game is using my Intel HD card or my GeForce card though. However Taito Type X2 hardware isn't that powerful, so I would say that you should be good in any case.

Finally got Gamestream Co-Op running and was looking forward to, for a laugh, seeing how it worked with someone online to start knocking out some of these 2p Chronicle Mode missions...

...Only to find that Dariusburst doesn't actually use exclusive fullscreen at all, and runs permanently in windowed fullscreen, so Game Share won't work.

Boooooo!

[Blackbird]

There will be a live preview for DariusBurst CS at 8PM EST tomorrow (12/2), on http://www.twitch.tv/degigames.

I'll explain the launch details, game features, and show off the various game modes so you can see what the game is like, if you haven't been following the closed beta comments.

See you there!

Just learn to double play! It's not that hard.

AC mode will certainly run fine. Couldn't say about CS mode.

What are you playing it on so soon?

Steam, for the purpose of closed beta/review. There's no way I'm missing the opportunity to gush about Darius in a national newspaper.

[Steelix100]

You know what would've been cool?
Using the cabinets feature to add in online coop.

At least, that's what I think. I also think it sounds like a huge pain in the ass to try to program. But I still think it'd be cool.

[Danny]

Just figured you guys would like to see this...

TLDR Verson

There is going to be a 20 percent discount at launch!

Great stuff! Make sure to link us to the gushing.

I just had a mission in the starting bloody planet on Chronicle mode drop a hidden G.T.V. on me, not in the mission rules.

Now that's just not funny.

[iast]

So are we using cabinet 11 for Chronicle Mode as was suggested earlier? I didn't really see anything unlocked there but I cleared 2 stages.

[ArmoredCore]

The ps4 psn store tease... i see you DBCS lol. Let me click it damn it!

I'm still on cabinet 11 but haven't played much arcade. I do have about 4 stages cleared (with a 9 of shame score on one of them.)

Haven't encountered any surprise GTVs but there is a regular Great Thing lurking in the red hex at the far right.

Glad to see that AC mode is still playable (and enjoyable!) on the Vita

Can't even clear ADH, though Shit's hard.

[SuperPang]

What time do games usually go live on the US PS4 store?

[AxelMill]

Can't even clear ADH, though Shit's hard.

I guess it's better this way.
Even I managed to no-miss ABCEH and ABCEI on vanilla Burst and ABDGJ on SP, so a little increase in difficulty is fine by me.

This game has a nice difficulty curve, ranging from "Enjoyable walk in the park" to "Oh God please let me no-miss Daioujou, Image Fight and Gradius III blindfolded instead. At the same time."

[Steelix100]

lol you guys
Darius Burst is ez
Just spam fixed burst and like nothing can touch you lol

Now if you're playing one of the legacy ships (mainly Origin)... then yeah, I can see where you're coming from.

edit: fixed wrong link thank you ATTRACTS!

[cave hermit]

So, are cabinets cross platform or cross region?

[Milspex]

Still no sign of it on psn

Link doesn't work...

For some reason it adds a .cs in the address when you click on it.
If you remove the .cs, it works.

http://www.cs.darius.jp/dbcs/en/ is what comes up when you try it...it should be:

DBAC is rather on the easy side tbh. Learn to use your cannon as a defensive tool. Camp.

There's nothing anywhere near DOJ.

[Mr Halibut]

Grrr, Europe doesn't get it on PS4 till Dec 8th, for some reason I got it into my head that it was coming out today

[Milspex]

Aaaah dammit

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Top ten list of things that kill me in DB:CS:

1. GTV
2. Great Thing
3. Curving Lasers, particularly the tiny ones that are unleashed in a swarm.
4. Lasers that leave the screen but then come back. Out of sight, but never out of mind apparently.
5. Failed counterburst attempts
6. Massive laser with little warning (Thousand Edge is pretty bad about this)
7. Popcorn enemies out of nowhere.
8. Origin Hawk taking forever to kill bosses.
9. 2nd Hawk isn't much better
10. Huge bullet spreads
