Very weird, my Dreamcast works as usual today, no problems... I hope it stays that way, but I don´t really believe it.
I know I said that I would play Giga Wing 2 first, but somehow Mars Matrix is more addicting at the moment. It´s just such an awesome game. I made some better chains today in Arcade Mode, but died too often and early. Then I tried the Arrange Mode again... which to me is really equal to the main game, absolutely great designed. Chaining seems to be a bit easier here... I played maybe 3 runs and got a quite good score on my last try.
Elite Mode is also very cool because I can use Mosquito 1 with better speed. M1 makes things a bit easier. I tried it in Arcade Mode too, but it´s too lame there (I don´t like slow ships in shooters at all...)

Re:
How about an update of my Elite Mode Score, Rob?
It´s not a really great effort of course, but it´s #1 for now

And you may update a slight improvement of my DC Arcade Mode score (I wouldn´t post it, but it´s already some months ago, so no better scores in sight yet...)Battletoad wrote:DC Elite Mode A

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Finally some improvement, I started playing MM again. (During the last months just some single runs...)
211,576,734,730 - 1,164,063 - Battletoad - 2 - 4
I still can´t manage the stage 4 boss, but I hope to get better chains in stage 2 and 3.
EDIT: Sorry for using the german number system, changed now...

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Thanks! This shall not be the end
I´ll have to concentrate on practicing single stages to get better plans for chaining. Doens´t work very well in Arcade Mode.
By the way, I´ve noticed that there are two aventus' in the Dreamcast table...

I suck at this game, but goddamn, I'm proud of this score (somewhat)

First orange ship score in the arcade section. Nice.

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Going for the counterstop then? ;)
Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Chances are looking grim since I can't consistently do decent chaining in stages 2-4. :/
Eventually, I'll counterstop it. Eventually. I swear it.

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
The thought of counterstopping is too much for me.
HOWEVER, I finally all'd it and I'm happy enough.

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
That's good. You have about the EXP I've seen in other counterstop scores (oseiaswgi has less), but I also haven't been able to do it with that amount. Might be able to pick up some scoring tricks from videos and bring it up without increasing the EXP.
Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Been playing this off and on for a long time. Finally got a mil exp, feel like I should have more points though.

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Great, I have played this game for years and I never could reach the 5 stage!
Can you replay this?

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
Stage 4, mainly the boss and that section before the huge ship (this thing is impossible).
Cool!

Re: Mars Matrix (new thread)
For survival try to abuse very small mosquito absorbs (use like less than 5% of gauge) and abuse that small 0.5sec of invincibility every time you absorb.
