can anyone give me an idea, or pssible show on a screen grab where the esprade players' hit box is?? i'm still trying to figure it out precisely..

thx!!

Yeah would be nice to know this precisely.

Looks like that site doesn't allow embedding, Fu. Here's the links:

Yusuke
J-D
Irori

Also a nice collection of hitboxes at his url: http://hyryu.free.fr/hitbox/

cool, just got this game today. perfect timing!

So, the three characters don't have hitbox the same size ? (from what I see, Irori's > Yusuke's > JB's)

They aren't marked pixel-perfectly.

Then doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of seeing the hitbox?

Nope. Since bullets have hitboxes too, exact size of player isn't really helpful IMO, it's placement that matters.

I would say that in ESP Ra.De. bullets don't have a small hitbox. In comparaison with DoDonPachi, with the blue bullets from 3rd boss, there is a big difference.

The hitboxes I showed come from the french forum. Hyryu marked a lot of them.

Does anyone have the pictures showing the hitboxes as these picture links are dead, please?

Enjoy!

Thanks mate!

Don't expect to be able to tell where they are while the sprite wiggles around though

Just protect your neck. It's very odd to get the hang of, especially if you're used to any other Cave game where the hitbox is almost always in the geometric center of the character sprite.

I mainly play as Yusuke, and I seem to be hit in the forehead a lot. I figured the beret is deadly, but I guess it's just those blue bullets from the ground that are too fast for my eyes. I want pink bullets damn it!

It's fun to view this thread through the eyes of someone who doesn't play video games. Pictures of little kids with the base of their skulls targeted. Scary stuff.

Thanks for the hitboxes, I'm going to finally try to get into this game.

I might too, thanks =P

I've been digging into the game, and these were definitely very helpful (still not enough that I've even made it to stage 4 yet though )
So thanks again!
