SOTM March 2019: 19XX - The War Against Destiny & Strikers 1945+

[egg_sanwich]

Alright. I'm trying to get the first stage boss S Rank. I can get an A Rank, but dang! How do y'all kill that plane in under 10 seconds? I can't get the homing lock onto the fuselage until I take out the tail and the amount of time to charge my shot for both the tail and the fuselage eats up the 10 second window.

You can basically point blank it to death before it gets any shots off.

Not sure what I keep missing on stage 1, I've only gotten perfect once. I can get the boss in 8-9 sec for the S.

I haven’t played this game seriously in 23 years, but I remember there was a spot on stage 2 or 3 on the right side that looked like a warehouse where you could fire at it and it would keep dropping medals infinitely.

That's stage 2 in 19xx

 

[The_Chosen_One]

That's stage 2 in 19xx

I’m not sure if you guys are talking about a different one, but the normal hidden medal spots like that are not indefinite. They do something like 10 small 5 medium and 3 big medals and are done. There’s a bunch of them throughout the game.

I’m roughly estimating the number count as I’ve never really counted except the big medals so I know when it’s about done.

I noticed this on my playthrough I did.

Little improvement...

Chosen One -6,431,500 - Stage 7 - Mosquito


Just felt like a solid run, didn’t notice I was scoring that well but didn’t die at all in the early stages. No clear yet, was on the final form of the last boss and went down.

Last boss is a jerk. That wing upgrade is a bunch of baloney.

 

[Neodogg]

bunch of a-holes...

Last boss form is a doozy, the extend at Lvl 25 saved my ass. I had nothing left at the end so I got a crap bonus.

 

[opt2not]

Nice one, KP!

 

[Neodogg]

Panda, thoughts change any from "interesting game"?
