    That should fuel your spite retro.

    Level 3 parts were just pot luck for me ...running and rolling like a madman with a hail of bullets and bombs directed at me

    You lads are going to 1cc it at this rate!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭unky chop chop


    Ahhh I'm all cabaled out at the moment ...runs take so long with frantic bloody diving and dodging ...so annoying when ya just roll into a bullet or don't see one and that's you done for :(



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,514 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Its always taking a bullet to the toe for me.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭unky chop chop


    Yeah same, or if a bonus or gun pops out and I take my eye of the ball looking at it. Especially the stretcher /grey lads

    From 2-3 onwards there are parts in every level they just throw the kitchen sink at ya.really depends where they decide to shoot and where you are situated when hell breaks loose .just damn right unfair just duck and dive like a madman and hope a bullet doesnt come into your path

    I'm not at the races wth those high scores. Thought I could maybe get close to unky's original 300k score, but no chance with 1m+ 🙃



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭unky chop chop


    Do yas wanna have this run for just the week. Instead of two? I'm happy if not , but be good to get a fresh game tomorrow



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,514 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Ah I'll take a stab at it this week. I'm not giving up yet



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭unky chop chop

    I can only really do two or three runs on a session.

    For some reason the game makes me stressed and exhausted as it's non stop. If I lose a life before level 3 I just restart.

    Reminds me of the reboot of doom , just gets me worked up and twitchy .

    Playing it on mini egret 5" screen probably doesnt help ! The version on my KI2 woodie isn't the correct version



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,514 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Ha yeah it's kind of exhausting and I've also not felt that exhausted since doom eternal!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭unky chop chop


    Yeah same . Well sure any media , book, game ,film ,music or painting that envokes an emotion or feeling , be it anger , spite, happiness, stress , exhaustion, love etc means it's successful!



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,514 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Seriously **** this game. Every time I have a good run going some BS kills me. That beach level is just utter nonsense. I hit 10,640,000 million and the scenery that normally give big points gave me a grenade. Died, spawned back in and spammed grenades and I was dead before they hit anything. Raging. Every other attempt ended at 3-2 or well before it, just can't get past it.

    😂 yep it's highly frustrating . Same happened to me . Got to 3-3 with 2 lives. Lost them both in space of a minute . If love to know the code behind this game . It's like it gets angry and goes mental sometimes . A rake of bullets go straight at ya...then others go to the left and right of you at the same time but staggered . Your just boxed in ...and at the same time on the same level In previous playthroughs it doesn't happen

    War is hell. That's why i pulled a strop over the unfairness after my last run and didn't play it until today and suggested it being a week run instead of two 😂

    I'm definitely giving up with my 600k score, don't have it in me for any more rounds of this 😅

    You really do have to commit a lot of time getting up to the point where you even start to get a decent score. And then it's all chance as to whether you get mangled or not!

    Ita TAD Corporation coming back to haunt me. Toki wasn't punishment enough.

    Care to self flagellate once again and pick Toki for the next game? 😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭unky chop chop


    I won't even ask about the Toki incident !



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,514 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    10,620,000 this time. Two pathetic deaths on 3-2 when I had loads of greandes left. If I had just hit one more tank or chopper I'd have got to 3-3.

    Ummmphh. Nearly never won the race 😂

    Your in the zone ..you'll get me for sure .

    Im waiting

    🤌



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,514 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Decided to have just one more go and I don't know what happened but I went into the zone. Got to stage 3 with only 2 lives and then it was like everything just clicked. It was like seeing the matrix although the more logical explanation was RNGesus decided to grace me with some luck. I'm not sure I'm beating this score:
