RQ: Darius Gaiden Extends

[JoshF]

I've been taking A-B-D-G-L-Q-V, occasionally getting a no miss, but I can't seem to find the second extend for this route. I could really use that 1 million

Clever Taito

I usually fly in between the blocks as soon as possible so I can't get attacked by the turrets.

I managed to get my high-score (09,438,850) today just playing the game casually, meaning I wasn't milking boss projectiles. No miss, 1 bomb, 4 captures.

Here's another question Zinger: Taking the path A-B-D-H-L-Q-V, there are actually 3 purple (bomb) shields. Whenever I picked up the third there was no indication it was even counted. Does this mean I get to use one of the earlier bombs without a score penalty at the end of the game?

[zinger]

Yeah, a sixth bomber item gives you a measly 5.000 points, so feel free to use one (Neon Light Illusion? ). Not all routes will give away as many though.

[JoshF]

Thanks. I made the mistake of not using an earlier bomb so when I eventually did use one the bomb stock counted it as if I used two.

[JoshF]

BTW isn't that 5.000 points just for picking it up not because it's in stock?

[zinger]

Yes ofcourse, sorry for being unclear. I thought it was pretty obvious since it doesn't show up in the HUD.

Where is the extend in Q? The image is broken, and I need that extend to clear the game

[louisg]

Bump! Here's a question: I notice on the 3rd level spacestation there's a 1up. Is there one on every 3rd level, or just that one? Are there two extends in the entire game regardless of which route?

[saucykobold]

Every third and sixth level has an extend, so there are two per route.

Since Zinger's Zone Q pic has been down for a long time, I thought I'd post a replacement. The extend is that purple circle.

Awesome, thanks!
