You are awake??? Where ru dude? Mostly I hit this forum (I'm in Oz) and everyone else is asleep or at work!
your 5) and 6) are covered by my 4). Does it ever move left on its own? I've also had both yours done - the head pops out after a little while with 6) but as I can't wait anymore I have just left those all lumped together in 4). Nice to know others are fooling around though too.
I got the head to partially stick in the hinge at the top a few times. One time it stayed there for a while and wiggled its head through and it stayed. It must have cut off the flow of air to its brain because it stopped squirming. I've done all night waits on the RC a few times. The target always leaves to the left when you leave it alone. I kept thinking in my show up on the other side or eventually come back but it didn't. What's weird is after it leaves to the right, if you shoot the switch it doesn't reverse and come back. It seems like the reset light should glow red at that point like it does in all the other levels. Another option I tried was shooting the lever. The doll lands below. The target starts trying to make it through the gate. I left it on all night hoping the target would pull off of the wheels and fall on the doll. Nope.
Fast Ball Is this where I should be shooting for my second shot on Fast Ball? I have a hard time hitting it consistently, but when I do, it seems to be the closest I ever get. If there's a better shot I could be taking, can someone clue me in, please?! Also, after 30 minutes of shooting everywhere on Metronome (keeping in mind that it was said that it's not a full-force shot), I've concluded that I have no idea what I'm doing. haha Any help on either level would be really appreciated. I need to shave 5 dolls before the update to make it to 249.
Sorry, I took a break from RB2 and went to Vegas, but I'm back now! Congratulations to all new sub-250 members (especially to Bill with 247*)! There are now at least 17 players below 250. Also congratulations to Conger that made it to the top 25 with a 24th position! Since everyone seems to have a list with the levels they need help with I should do that too. I need help with WD, SO, and BD. Which one is easiest?
That's like asking whether it is better to die from being set on fire, boiled or dipped in hot grease.
Plus+ is really annoying me I know I'm not the only person with issues but I wish they would read my emails. I sent them an email telling them I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and all the other things I tried and after 3 days they reply "Try uninstalling and reinstalling the game."
My RB1 wouldn't start up. It was doing that daft thing where as soon as you try to open it it closes again. I deleted it, reinstalled it. (done that before). This time though it charged me again and wipes all my scores. Emailed apple to be told I hadn't bought it before. I've sent them the invoice but it's not the £1 that us bothering me of course. It's having to start ALL over again. Stick with it Bill - it's the principle of it after all Of course I'm going to fight for the £1 back, well I AM Scottish after all.
Another suggestion Well I must say after completing JG finally, it made me wonder how many times I actually hit reset...if I had to guess, it would be in the 6-8K range. Alas to my suggestion 6) A reset counter on screen. This way there is some significance for people like Foxy and Vayduh that were able to complete a level like JG easily, whereas others not so much. Just a neat way when we take our screenshots that it would also capture that info. Perhaps even an award or two for fewest dolls, aka Ragdoll Master and most dolls, aka Ragdoll Blaster! Rhyno, over and out
Backflip is helping fix my Plus situation. Backflip is emailing me back and forth helping me with my scoring issue. I asked him if they knew what all the tricks were and if they knew the lowest score possible and here's what they said: You guys have blown us away. Just to give you an idea of what we thought was possible, we created that hidden award you earn at 500 ragdolls named "Is This Even Possible?" with the idea that that would be a pretty impressive score to achieve. Internally, we had hit around 450, so we figured after our experience with the first game that the guys who were really good were going to hit 350 or so. To see that the top scores right now are 239 is pretty mind boggling for us.
The Backflip guy asked me if I had any suggestions to improve the game. I told him about your reset counter idea. I don't like the idea of the counter being used in scoring the game or for awards because it would discourage sharing of discoveries. He said they have everyone's data right now for he scoring system. He gave me mine: Ragdolls Fired: 134,312 Total Resets: 48,442
I don't have Fast Ball yet, but for Metronome aim for the third rivet from the bottom on the right side. Sometimes when the doll gets stuck it will move down to the hinge, but you'll eventually get one that moves up. If you wait long enough it will move all the way up to the target.
Thanks, Epistrophy... I got it quite a bit earlier, today, but I appreciate the help anyway. With four shaves today, and two last night, that brings me down to 250! I'm dying to get one more, but I'm so frustrated with all the levels I've been trying. I'm thinking about trying Son of Flex, since I have 11 on it, but I haven't read much up on it yet. Other than that, I think Fast Ball, Grinder 2, and Big Wheel are my best prospects. (and I've still got that damned Jail Guard to work on) Also, good luck with that, Bill. I hope it all works out.
Wow, that's interesting that they have it! Wonder what mine is? Anyways, I don't mean that it would be how we would score, that would remain as it is. Just in addition to that for our own knowledge it would be there, sort of as bragging rights if one were to get a difficult level like Big Dipper in very few resets. Glad to hear that they are working with you though, that's great news, hopefully they can get to the bottom of it. Rhyno
I'm not sure I would use the term "bragging rights" for a low reset on Big Dipper. It's almost pure luck.
Turnabout Dear All, Could anyone tell if this is the right strategy for Turnabout? I don't have a spare device, and I can't keep the program running over 6 hours in a row: would this be the solution with more waiting time? Still very far from the top, RIP 292 (rank 55 on plus this morning). My initial target was to reach 299... can't stop now... stupid game... now I want to reach 249... By the way, I had big hopes that the new OS4 would allow RGB2 to run indefinitely, and it isn't. Did I miss something in the set-up? Some levels are very difficult if you can't wait more than 6 hours
