I'd probably be at that point if I still had access to the gameadversity1 wrote:How about people get to the second extend and then start posting scores?
The second extend is 10 billion, not 1. 1 billion is too low on its own since it's easily obtainable on stage 1. I understand that this PCB is rare and hasn't made it to too many places yet, but the scores in this thread are absurdly low.lgb wrote:thank you for reminding me

God damn! I guess its power after all. I've always been much better at survival in SHMUPs over scoring, but maybe once I learn how to use power...I wish. I'm too used to the typical bomber type through all the DDP games to consider using power now.adversity1 wrote:Hex - 88,169,314,808 - St5 Boss - B-Power
Blah for a number of reasons.
lgb, are you still down to manage this thread?
Still, 23 bil at 2-5 is pretty impressive. You must be chaining at points right?ResumeDPosition wrote:God damn! I guess its power after all.

Yea that 23 bil run I managed to chain stage 1, later part of stage 2, stage 3 until a bit after the midboss, stage 4 not much chaining, and stage 5 from the start until the end of the 2nd part of the indestructable rotating turret things where I lost my hit count. Not so much chaining as playing for survival in loop 2. Got real close to Ura loop that run too but the 5th boss hit me for a 3rd autobomb RIGHT when I killed heradversity1 wrote: Still, 23 bil at 2-5 is pretty impressive.

Watch out for those bullets from the side.ResumeDPosition wrote:Another score for the sake of having something listed for A-Strong. VERY interesting playthrough for a first time with A-Strong after being spoiled by C-Strong for so long...lol
Chaining certain parts with A-Strong appears to be extremely altered or impossible entirely, such as the 2nd Ura midboss portion...I kill the midboss too quickly when trying to use delayed hyper shots. It seems that I have to not shoot at the midboss at all for quite some time or else I'll kill it before I can up the hit counter sandwiching myself between the laser disc things it shoots at the end. I also end up killing the 3rd Ura midboss too quickly doing the same stuff I do with C-Strong...adversity1 wrote: Watch out for those bullets from the side.
One thing I can tell you is that every time you run over a tank or other enemy during this portion, you can hold off on laser for maybe a second. When the lasers come out, shoot only the laser and try not to get your shot on the tank at all. This should be enough to chain through him.ResumeDPosition wrote:Chaining certain parts with A-Strong appears to be extremely altered or impossible entirely, such as the 2nd Ura midboss portion...I kill the midboss too quickly when trying to use delayed hyper shots.

Lol getting high scores with A-Anything is a bitch in this game it seems! I'll still be playing from time to time here and there with A-Strong whenever I do visit my arcade, but for now I think I'm gonna take a short break from it after getting hibachi-raped last nightadversity1 wrote:
