you must get some crazy rank in stage 3 then (if you haven't died)? so i take it that means you don't hyper the stage 1 boss?Plasmo wrote: in stage 2. i use 5 hypers at the beginning and then 4 for the end bit. (93mill after stage 2)
my advise would be not to worry too much on the stage 4 chaining. even when you watch the japanese replays, you never see someone chain all of stage 4 on both loops, chaining into and out of the 1-up seems very difficult. stage 5 is much easier to chain and has less sections where you *must* use a hyper to keep it going

I dont find stage 5 particularly easy to chain i have NO idea how to chain the bee hive section before the second midboss.The rest is ok but still nowhere near easy IMO.
the beehive section is a fucker, no doubt. if i could do that my score would be much higher when the first midboss appears, most japanese players tend to hyper through it as it's about to die, so you have a bit of extra chaining time one the few enemies that appear before the beehives. i'm fairly sure that you don't have to use a hyper to keep the chain going provided you're in the middle of the screen and using the laser. for the actual beehives themselves, laser the hives, and sweeping c shot between. however, the ISO replays i have on vhs show him getting stuck into a corner and deliberately activating a hyper to sweep back across towards the end of the beehive section. so maybe you have to conserve a hyper to help you through with that bit

i've been playing this for the last couple of days. no improvement on score. i totally fucked up stage 2 (no change there then) but thought i'd carry on, kicked the shit out of stage 5, and no-missed the big bee. this is the second time i've made it up to 2-2...

Two questions
1: I see everyone in the table except for shuppon is using A-E. I figured B-L would be the easiest to score w/ due to the weaker laser? Am I smoking crack?
2: Why the fuck are there only 10 people participating in this thread? Will post when I have a less disgraceful score.

Best for scoring, survival or both? I would think the premature ejaculation (killing shit too fast) would make chaining harder.It's because A-E is the best ship.
Didn't see anything in the first post. Top 10, huh? Harsh.Because you need 132 million points to post.

A-Exy is easier for scoring due to a more precise shot. You can usually tap C to slowly destroy enemies in places where the action becomes thin and keep your chain going. B-Exy has such a wide shot that when you tap C you can take out enemies you didn't necessarily want to yet.
IMO B-L is the easiest for survival due to a fairly wide shot, a strong laser, and a good bomb stock.

Peace Through Violence
if you wanna play purely for survival (not something i'm too keen on), then probably A-S type. it has the largest amount of bombs, and is slow without being too slow. A-E is the most balanced, as shalashaska pointed out. B-E is better for the second loop, so shuppon tells me.GaijinPunch wrote:Best for scoring, survival or both?

and yeah, it's top 10 only. it's like cave-elitism, except it's about scores and not cardboard boxes.
died with the big bee having a millimetre of health left oh well
