Ugh, I'm hitting a scoring wall at 2-3. I keep arriving there with only one or two lives to spare, never quite reaching 1.1 mil.

Re: STGT'12 Week 3: Salamander 2
Destroy the first two large ships by only hitting the main body. Damaging the fins or engines of those will prevent the gold ship spawning.Despatche wrote:I don't think I can play this anymore. Also, I have no idea how to get that gold ship.
Destroy the fins and engine on the gold ship before it explodes to get the 100k point bonus.

Re: STGT'12 Week 3: Salamander 2
Finally killed the Brain Golem on the 1st loop; too worried about survival the 2nd time.
I still have no idea about the Golden Ship, and I think I'm wore out on this one. I hate horis.

I'm not happy with my score but I think it's about as good as I'm going to do this week.

Re: STGT'12 Week 3: Salamander 2
There's been a whole ton of posts explaining it already. Plant your options at the right side of the screen and sit there as the first two blue ships show up, the missiles will kill the blue ships without touching the engine or fins. The yellow ship shows up, destroy the engine first (it has more health), then the upper fin, then finish off the ship itself for the 100k.I still have no idea about the Golden Ship

Not sure if it is stage 4, maybe it's 5... Awful score for an awful game.

<S.Yagawa> I like the challenge of "doing the impossible" with older hardware, and pushing it as far as it can go.

It's an Edgar Allan Poe reference, from The Purloined Letter. Heavily butchered, of course. Apart from that, no, nothing else worth saying.dan76 wrote:Anything else?ebarrett wrote:I suppose a lot of things must feel awful for someone who can't count to sixdan76 wrote:Not sure if it is stage 4, maybe it's 5...

In a moment of celebration I forgot to use those bombs to get extra score at the end. Oh well, it's not that important. Got all techs but milked quite badly 2-3 boss.

I will score with my big hard thick erect throbbing veiny fingers !

Small improvement... probably last for the week. Wish I knew of a more reliable way to get shield drops

99% deaths on stage one - first time beating the third boss, actually.
You know, R-Type doesn't make your ship useless on spawn. Why not just give the "first" speedup + option as a freebie? No, that'd be too intelligent for Konami.
