Take advantage of the sale to get this one right now, but you need to get Espgaluda II at some point. They're both fantastic, and you'd be doing yourself a disservice to only play one of them.
Woohoo! Just scraped the Top 10 for iPhone mode Ship C. The more I play iPhone mode, the more I really, really enjoy the scoring.
Yo Type C leaderboards for iPhone mode have some insane scores. How the **** did you get up there? Are you milking the bosses?
Even though the strange 'warping' has gone now, I still get the occasional stutter when lots of stuff is happening on screen (I do have the screen size set to large though).
I follow a pattern. Graze bullets until 1000x multiplier and maximum chain gauge Stop firing for 1 second. (This makes sure the M gauge is as maxed out as possible without killing enemies knocking it down) Level 3 Hyper Cannon with maxed out M gauge. If done correctly, this should give you *another* maxed out Hyper gauge aswell as a maxed out S gauge. Level 3 Hyper Cannon immediately afterwards with maxed out S gauge. Open fire with maxed out S gauge until multiplier drops to 500x Repeat
So whenever I load this game I get a grey OpenFeint screen but it never loads enough to tell it that I don't want these awesome features. Anyone have any idea how to get past that? Already tried rebooting, redownloading, reinstalling, etc.
I got this a few times when I tried it on my iPad... just a white OF screen. After a few attempts it seemed to resolve itself. I know it's a stupid Q, but have you closed all other apps (if using iOS4)? Or try a hard reboot (on/off and home until it switches off)...
Thanks for the guide! Sometimes my multiplier drops rapidly, am I right to say that the multipliers will not increase, and rather will decrease when i'm in S mode?
Working A-OK on my 32gb 3GS. Looks like I'll be relying on Vally again to fully explain the scoring systems and various modes.
Drat! Double drat! Help please! Anyone else have trouble downloading this game? It's get's a little more than half way & stops and starts over again. I had no trouble downloading the lite version of their other game. But having trouble dl this one . Anyone have any ideas? Thanks
Scoring Explanation thread up. http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=65302 I'm in a bit of a rush at the moment, so I apologise if some of it doesn't make sense, or if there are huge chunks of information missing. I'll be reading through it in the next few days to make sure i've not missed anything massively substantial out.
Here's a thread about the arcade version, seems like the tips there apply to arcade mode on the iPhone as well: http://www.cave-stg.com/forum/index.php?topic=704.0 Not sure if you're missing anything from there or not but worth a look later on to double check everything I guess.
Not quite sure yet. I am usually an arcade mode purist, but it seems like there is more possibility for score diversity in iphone mode. I will be working on strong type B/C for a bit because I just don't really like ship A as much as the others. At the same time, I want to beat all the modes with all the ships for the achievement.
