Yeah it does take quite a bit of time for your eyes to adapt to 2nd loop bullet-hell. Trying to adapt to it now after long absence out from playing the game.

You would reach 1 million easily on stage 2-1 if you trigger the bonus train on stages 1-1, or 1-2. Don't bother trying to trigger the train on stages 1-3, or 1-4.

I actually get the train regardless of stage order.

It's just that I'm crap at medals :evil:

Just curious, why not?

I thought that 1-3 was the optimum level to get the train out.

Cheers,

Didn't think Chempop was at required skill level to try and trigger the train depending on which fighter plane used. Hard to skillfully trigger using P-38 Lightning, and BF-109 on stage 1-3 or 1-4 and virtually impossible on stages 2-3 and 2-4 unless you suicide death once you fighter is hovered over the tree even for a split second. Suicide trick only works on 2nd loop.

Cheers mate, noted!

Though you are talking to someone who hasn't looped a Psikyo shooter yet!

bf-109 is my character if choice FWIW.

Cheers,

Ralph.

Well then i'l clarify now I activate the train if it's stage 1 or 2 but haven't yet bothered to learn for 3/4 as i'm still very much in the survival over scoring stage of learning this game.

Cee-Surprisingly good effort on reaching stage 2-5. Start of Stage 2-6 is tough, so just dodge the 1st wave of ships that come down without shooting even if they hit your plane and power down.

Yeah my bad as I posted the wrong link. Curious to know how Replay Burners managed to do this so that I can try and do the same with one of my old super play because the playback quality is pretty poor.

First clear with a ship that's not the Bf-109! I was inspired by the recent Stunfest run.

Keep in mind that 2-1 to 2-4 are the hardest stages in the loop. Stage 2-6 for example is a complete joke.

You are closer to the ALL than you might think. Keep it up! :)
