Can someone with the US version of Deathsmiles look up my score on the leaderboards on MBL1.1 with Windia and send it via PM? I forgot to write it down when I change to the JP version

The initals to look for are TYJ. Thanks in advance.

Thanks BareknuckleRoo

Spadgy, can you replace my sakura score with this:

Tyjet Poison - 179,162,442,554 - 5-2 BOSS EX (Ice Palace, Canyon) - Windia

Post by **spadgy** » Sun Jan 06, 2013 3:26 pm

Done - all updated.

And thanks for that BareknuckleRoo!

So, now I'm really confused.

At the jonny5 meet today, I 1CC'd the PCB version twice -- once with Windia (~51M) and again with Rosa (~55M).

I come home, fire the game up in MAME (CAVEUI32 v1.2.1) and I died on the first half of the last stage (before the ballroom section).

I know the slowdown in MAME isn't emulated properly, it's extremely obvious after have just played the PCB, but either jonny5's PCB isn't set correctly or the default settings in MAME are wrong, because the damage is completely different.

I see in the settings there are two damage settings, and mine is set to 4 for Enemy Damage and 5 for Bullet Damage. Are these the correct defaults?

Those are the correct defaults for arcade mode. At least as far as I know on the Xbox port.

Tyjet · Post by **Tyjet** » Tue Jan 22, 2013 4:57 am

As stated, the defaults for DS is:

Life 3
Difficulty 2
Enemy Damage 4
Bullet Damage 5
Bomb 3

If you're still in doubt, test this during the gameplay:

-a half of damage is recieved if you touch an enemy, environmental elements, bosses, or a boss's object (ex. Whroon's apples, flying rocks in volcano, ect...).

-one life is lost if you get hit by a bullet or a suicide bullet.

If you are finding yourself getting hit more than 2 times before losing a life, then you may have the wrong settings (ie. it's either 1 life or 0.5 of a life).

I had been wanting to ask, but what do the difficulty settings do on the console version? I haven't noticed anything different from regular gameplay.

shmuppyLove · Post by **shmuppyLove** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 12:25 am

Ok I thought so ... so the PCB I was playing on is not on defaults then, I seem to take a million hits and hardly ever lose a full bar.

I've been pondering that too. I ask the same question when in training mode it gives you the difficulty option of default or no miss. I think the difficulty setting slightly changes the bullet speed.

From what I observed:
-No change in enemy health and boss health for each lvl(1-999). Meaning they don't take longer to kill when you set the difficulty to max.

-I don't think it even raises rank since you choose it at the beginning of the stages and the game automatically adjust the bullet behavior based on your path selections.

I'm sepculating. Maybe someone can look into the programming of the game and see what it does???

powersoul · Post by **powersoul** » Wed Jan 23, 2013 1:08 pm

I tried to determine if the miniscule delay between a hit and a loss of life differs with each setting (much like Touhou's Death-bombing tolerance time), but so far no luck

Tyjet Poison - 5,806,505,149 - 4-2 Boss - Windia

**On a side note, I've been doing all lvl999 stage runs and I'm so close of getting the TLB. It seems like 5bil is a given if playing for survival. (The picture is not the Secret ALL)

Score: 5,003,288,467 (do not add to table spadgy!)
Stage Selection:
Forest(999)> Swamp(999)> Rail(999)> Volcano(999)> Port(999)> Graveyard(999)> Temple(999)> Canyon(999)> Castle(999)

Great work mate! I had a daft grin on my face for ages when I first got a 1CC.

Pretty tasty V1.1 debut there Tyjet. Nice one!

Big score! You going to stick at it and get in the top 10?!

Oh, and, the score board is updated.

Mega Black Label

endoKarb - 342.420.744 - ALL - Windia - 360

\o\ YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, finally got my first 1cc. Full level 1 ftw. /o/

I'm really digging this game, I basically bought an 360 just to play this and the other stuff from CAVE roughly two weeks ago.

So happy right now +_+

Hi Spadgy,

I've been really enjoying Deathsmiles Mega Black Label v1.1 lately.
Managed to just pinch top spot on the PAL leader-boards, so thought I'd submit my humble score.

Hoopy3D 209,609,829,712 5-2 Boss EX (Ice Palace, Canyon) Windia

I've been eyeing up the top score on your list, but think it may be a bit beyond my capabilities. I always seem to take a few hits on the extra stage bosses

Still that's what gives these games that just one more go quality.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of challenge in the AAA titles these days. Just my opinion I know, but I always seem to fall back on Cave's shooters when I really want to test my old-school gaming metal.

Keep on gaming.

Thanks, I'm definitely looking to improve that score quite a bit by playing with death mode.

I'm thinking of writing a DS Mega Black Label "advanced scoring" guide to iron out all the details to this game since I'm seeing inconsistencies and information everywhere. <--That and I'm forgetting how to score in this game.

Is anyone interested?

Me too. I haven't played this for over a year but I think I'm going to start up again.

The Ice Palace is such a great stage but I never score as well as I should. I've seen replays where I'm basically doing the same thing, but these players are scoring so much higher. It must be my positioning being very slightly off... or overusing the lockshot.

Tyjet · Post by **Tyjet** » Thu Mar 07, 2013 10:19 pm

All right, I'll open up a thread tonight. Now where to start. . .

Post by **spadgy** » Sun Mar 10, 2013 2:16 pm

Updated!

Well done on your first 1CC! I remember the feeling of the grin on my face after my first like it was yesterday!

And Hoopy; congratulations on getting on the podium on both MBL and MBL 1.1!

hoopy · Post by **hoopy** » Mon Mar 11, 2013 8:42 am

Thanks for adding my scores spadgy.

You added my version 1.1 score to the MBL list by mistake.

Although I don't mind having the second spot on the MBL list.
