Definitely. The Raiden IV STGW episode WILL happen. Probably before episode #30.

New location + New PCB = Total Domination of Machine Board (Shout-out to Super Arcade).

CIV ~ 41,099,510 ~ 2-3 ~ Raiden MkII ~ Original - Single ~ PCB ~ Image

Some cool things I noticed while doing this one:

1) If you've collected the Fairy on the first loop (and no-missed it), and collect the second one, and then die twice, you still get the second fairy's effect. I was seriously thinking the game might have not counted that. (PS: I can't believe I no-missed the first loop.)

2) Fully powered blue laser + Fully powered nuclear missiles = Decimated Stage 5 Boss final form before it gets to its third attack. What. The. Balls.

Daaamn Raiden IV at Super Arcade, that's awesome. Nice score.

I had never considered those properties of the bombs... but a good fairy can make a not so bad recovery sequence. Hmm. Speaking of Fairy I should go back to attempting fairy 2-all arcade.

Wicked score! A place on the podium in Arcade Mode for you A_Civilian. Well done!

And good work on discovering that detail; a note to introduce to the game's strategy thread?

Indeed I am!

Just need to properly familiarise myself with the Overkill modes.

BOS - I'll add your score in now, and amazing work on the 2-ALL clear.

UPDATE: Done!

And Yumi has ignited the spark that means an Overkill board will appear. I've been playing too. I'll add in the new boards tonight!

I'd say one for Overkill, Additional, Boss Rush, and Overkill Doubleplay. Sound good?

Crap bags. I still need to do this. Where did all that time go? Yumi. I'll do this now. But... do you have a 2-ALL for me Yumi. And you aquas? What about the rest of you? If I add in those extra tables, will you submit some scores?

EDIT: Overkill modes added. I went without Boss Rush for now. Please do suggest additions or alterations (and point out errors/innaccuracies!).

I'm about to head off for a few days, but on returning, I shall dig out my Overkill scores!

Hi all, I have recently picked up Overkill on my PS3 as a 'spare time' secondary project during my serious attempt to clear Futari Original (my first 1CC, hopefully...)

I was amazed to find myself at #40 on the leaderboards after about 5 attempts and only reaching Level 3 mid boss. Clearly not many people are getting involved so far!

Would be interested in adding anyone who is competing on PS3 to my Friends leaderboard, and also up for sharing thoughts on strategies for Overkill. "Use the original Raiden ship and laser everything" seems to be my current best suggestion ;)

Interested in working out e.g. what causes the Level restrictions during overkills (why it sometimes maxes out at L2 etc.), stuff like that.

Also there are NO decent videos up on Youtube yet, from what I can see.

Is anyone going to create a separate Overkill discussion thread (the joint one with Caladrius is long and often irrelevant to Overkill) and/or a strategy thread?

Progress.

CIV - 49,543,420 - 2-5 - Raiden MkII - Original (Single) - PCB - Screen (Single)
CIV - 38,971,380 - 2-3 - Raiden MkII + Raiden MkIIß - Original (Double) - PCB - Screen (Double)

Grab a power-up while grazing a bullet and maybe get a graphical glitch that makes your ship blink red like it's about to explode. The 5th stage feels more dramatic looking that way.

Howdy, can I get in on this? I've got a nice arcade mode score up after a few sessions of practice on the PS3.

Heavy Viper - 24,042,750 - 1-5 - Raiden MkII Beta ~~~ ARCADE - PS3

Piccy for proof!

Was pretty sloppy and lost two lives fairly early. At least I made it about halfway through 1-5...

Updated!

A.Civilian - you made the second loop on Double Play?! :shock: Amazing!

Heavy Viper - Your score was for Overkill, right? Assume so, as you listed PS3.

DanMagoo - Post about Raiden IV where you want! That video; was that yours? If you want a post a score please do... just do it to the format in the original post here. And to talk Raiden IV Overkill strategies... Check this post here for listed Raiden IV strategy conversations. Or you could start an Overkill thread anew in the Strategy section!
