How about you shut the fuck up asslicker. I had more fun with TF6 than this crap. TF6 was actually more worth it's money than Dux is. Stop licking RHE's ass mr. I like gays. Seriously, not even TF6 had any bugs, just safespots LOL. Seriously, stop defending this guys, you're only setting yourself up as a perfect target for flaming!
Kaiser could be the new ROMMELL!

Cause he was a really nasty character. Only difference was that HE CAPLOCKD EVERYTHING FOR EFFECT AND IT GOT REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING!!!! :lol:

This was back in like...98 or 99...Malc, Kiken or TWITCHDOCTOR would know who I'm talking about. He was an FPS nut whose basis was dispelling shmups as weak and boring yada yada...

Hey, anybody here remember ROMMELL?

Anyway, to all people who experience this bug, let me know a few things: what kind of TV device do you use? CRT, LCD, Plasma? But most important thing of all, does the TV device support 60hz or is it just 50hz?[/quote]



My TV is a CRT. It supports 60 hz ( never had any problems with
japanese consoles or games). The Dreamcast is european version.
Hope that can help.

I have old Toshiba CRT that only supports 50Hz (doh!) and pre-2000 PAL Dreamcast (model no. HKT-3030).
Will watch out for those double bullet streams later :D

Thanks for the information. Now I'd like to know, what people with non-PAL DC experience bug-wise.

Shipping to Hong Kong takes time. You can get it at my shop instead to receive it as fast as possible.

That's becasue youre order includes a pre-order item. To receive them individually you have to order them individually.

Strange. I am not remotely in the same league as PLasmo or others here, but it happens to me almost every time I play it.

Your not playing on a dev station/pc emulation, now are you.
As I can't believe you and your testers never experienced this.
Anyway, to all people who experience this bug, let me know a few things: what kind of TV device do you use? CRT, LCD, Plasma? But most important thing of all, does the TV device support 60hz or is it just 50hz?
CRT, supporting 50hz and 60hz.

And for the love of God (just an expression, still not into that crap ;)),
I hope you'll fix it well all the extra lives you get through this DO kinda ruin the game even for survival players.

Also please do NOT forget fixing that Continue bug and the score reset after continuing! :!: :!: :!:

Fix those things and you've made a game you can be proud of imho.

Ah, that's right. Sorry, undamned - I knew there was someone I forgot. I kept thinking of Grant Windsor, Akira, and Felix the Cat.

If you're going to start taking a non-English non-Japanese review of a shmup seriously, you might as well start reading reviews on gamefaqs.

It's probably just a placeholder for an upcoming review. Anyone who has had any interest in this game probably has it by now.

So how long will it take to get these adjustments made? I'm not asking for an exact date, but a general time frame would be appreciated. I'm still interested in the game, but I'm waiting until these issued are addressed.

Your're right. It's not an review on this website, it's just a placeholder with screens. But please don't be so rude to the shmupers from Europe, we have feelings too - and we can write good reviews if we want. 8)

You couldn't be more arrogant with this statement. Basically you're telling everyone who can't speak english and/or japanese to shut up. Do you think these languages are inferior or something? I really don't get it.
I could write the same stuff in german that I usually write in english and I can't see any difference at all. Please tell me.

Oh yeah and this is completely Off-Topic,, but the last 3 pages are rubbish anyway.

It's like I said. Anyone interested in DUX either has it coming, or has it already. Do you really think someone is going to wait for a review in german before they decide?

Actually, this game is pretty much selling on hype alone.
