>Early death to DBDB on Lunatic Stage 4 practice

"Let's time it out, then."

Which is what happens.

I can't tell if this was a ~in the zone~ moment or copious amounts of luck. God damn.

PCB Hard no focus left half of the screen only clear. It was surprisingly easy though...

EDIT: Aaaaaaaaaand no focus Lunatic! That one was much more exciting!

Zengeku · « **Reply #182 on:** April 12, 2012, 10:50:37 PM »

Oh me gods, Lunatic clears all over the place. Gratz to Puffy and Chirpy for those EoSD clears. And good luck to Chirpy with them UFO's.

wow nice job on that PCB no focus, bet you never expected to clear it with a life in stock huh?

chirpy13 · « **Reply #184 on:** April 12, 2012, 11:35:06 PM »

I was a bit worried about the run when I got through Alice, but thankfully it picked itself back up after that... Partially thanks to border abuse :ohdear:. It was nice to finish off with a bit of breathing room there in any case. I feel a bit bad about letting my reflowering cap fall apart, but I guess it's alright :V.

Hina's final card timeout.

As by request actually because it wasn't done before? Anyway it get's pretty crazy the longer it goes on.

I also managed to set up a sort of spellpractice mode in order to do this. Let's see if you can figure it out from watching the replay. :justasplanned:

The only thing I can think of is that you somehow set it up to remember your input and had it play through the stage for you. Or maybe you had a bunch of windows open and played them all at once. No idea really, but I'm curious because I'd love to spellpractice VoWG. :derp:

I have no name · « **Reply #187 on:** April 13, 2012, 12:10:33 AM »

Do want MoF spell practice.

Actually for all the games, it'd make capturing every spellcard achievable for me without going crazy :V

Chuckolator · « **Reply #188 on:** April 13, 2012, 12:25:33 AM »

Managed to get to Byakuren with 0/0 on Hard, a 1cc can't be too far off. Also somehow managed a perfect Ichirin despite never capturing her second card before, which is kind of cool.

Jaimers · « **Reply #189 on:** April 13, 2012, 12:28:37 AM »

I actually just set up CheatEngine to run everything before the spell at 300 fps. While holding the bomb button it took like 10 seconds to get back there. :V

So I just cleared Imperishable Night extra again.
This time without dying.
and with 13 captures at that
Only failed Imperishable Shooting because derp rings spawn outward.
2 deathbombs, to the 7th and 8th nonspells.

Wow, EoSD seems to be getting a lot of attention lately, that's another two who have only UFO left? Congratulations, Puffy and Chirpy! Also to Glimmer and my nameless fellow!

Ridley 64 · « **Reply #193 on:** April 13, 2012, 06:45:51 AM »

After many failed attempts, 7 of which got to the final stage, I finally cleared B1 Hard! I didn't die in Shooting Sapphire and somehow pulled off a Bright Night capture. That's all routes done on Hard

Wow, I'm dreading B1, easily the most difficult one on Normal, congratulations! Just cleared my first route on Hard, A1, the game's definitely more fun on Hard, I just love how you can recover from pretty much any amount of mistakes if you know how to handle the patterns, it kind of allows me to actually relax while playing. Figuring the patterns out is lots of fun as well, really love how you can completely defuse some patterns if you know when and where to freeze.

Zengeku · « **Reply #195 on:** April 13, 2012, 10:00:14 AM »

Speaking of Fairy Wars, who needs Ice? :V

Have a small collection of Gold 'Medalled' cards here - There are many badass spells in this game. There are also some that are quite horribly designed but those can just be frozen over and forgotten about.

Makai Butterfly · « **Reply #196 on:** April 13, 2012, 10:32:56 AM »

Just captured Possessed By Phoenix three times in a row during Spell Practice. It's 90% strategy, 9% skill, and 1% luck on where the random pink bullets go. If I can make it through the blue arrowhead wave, the rest is a piece of cake. I've never died on the spell after that part.

チソウ タイゼン · « **Reply #197 on:** April 13, 2012, 04:17:13 PM »

You guys, there's a problem

I think that Kanako's final Mountain of Faith on Normal is getting too easy for me, because I captured it in a run that literally failed everything else

Also, my history on it is some 2 out of 7 total, sooooo what is going on

Does this mean that I should be able to clear VoWG on Hard mode now? Because that's a brick wall now for some reason.

Elysia · « **Reply #198 on:** April 13, 2012, 04:26:10 PM »

Aha...ha ha ha...

I just capped Inflation Square.

At 90FPS.

With only 61 pre-clear photos.

:]

(also capped Bloody Magic Square with only 51)

I say go for it. Even if you fail over and over again, VoWG is hella fun, so it's okay.

>opens UFO Stage 4

Okay, so this will be horrible, but I'm on Normal, so it shouldn't floor me.

Huh, I just perfected that. Also, Nue.
Perfected all that crap that happens after Nue. Had the insight to save one blue UFO for the blues spam shortly afterward.
Got to Murasa with what I believe was 100,000,000 points...

Surely this couldn't go too well.

..

Hello, perfect Murasa performance?
Next time, let's not breeze through the ending crap and actually save the replay.
It also doubles as my first Sinker Ghost cap :toot:

Well, that was amazing. Cleared 12 cards in a single day in 90FPS Shoot the Bullet, all the way up to 42. Halfway there now!

And now that I've unlocked Kinkaku-ji...something tells me this is going to take a while. :V

Perfect lunatic stage 5 midboss Sakuya. I can't believe I survived her nonspell, but apparently I've gotten better at squeezing through those red kunais.
Speaking of red kunais, when facing her in stage 6 I was confident about moving through them, and I managed to capture her opener that way :V

Except that each of those was sort of an accomplishment.
Since Flandre played 'get back here' and I still perfected up to Catadioptrics.
MoF Stage 6 perfect lunatic stage part, also ran out the clock on VoWG.
and phantasm, I perfected the whole stage for the first time ever.

Chuckolator · « **Reply #206 on:** April 13, 2012, 11:51:51 PM »

Fun run of SA Stage 3 Lunatic, capture all four of Yuugi's cards in the same run, three of them for the first time. Still amazed I captured Mt. Ooe with 1 power, actually.

Shortly followed by a perfect stage 2 in two tries, and the first one only had a single death due to greed. <_<

ふねん1 · « **Reply #207 on:** April 14, 2012, 12:49:01 AM »

New personal best for UFO Lunatic with no UFOs, perfected everything up to Murasa. Died once each with bombs in stock on her second and third cards though, ruining any real chance to finish. Now I realize just how long it's been since I last played her through. I need to re-familiarize myself with her stuff (except her last nonspell lol).

What's bugging me is I still have no clue how much I can trust Stage 5 to cooperate even to a semi-reasonable degree. I may consider certain parts as autobombs already, but in case I need to use a few more to save myself, I don't want to end up using too many resources before Byakuren either. Can anyone here offer insight into how the typical Stage 5 run went when going for a no-UFO Lunatic 1cc?

Zil · « **Reply #208 on:** April 14, 2012, 12:56:22 AM »

Not that I've done a no UFO run, but if you time out Nazrin's nonspell then bomb the spell you probably skip the arrowhead faries and go straight to the part where they fly across the screen, if that's helpful.

Chuckolator · « **Reply #209 on:** April 14, 2012, 02:11:34 AM »

Speaking of UFO, first Hard 1cc. No deaths until boss Ichirin with some surprising captures (Nazrin's finisher, Kogasa's finisher, Vajra to name a few) and I still end up with a life left.

On one hand, I'm happy because I 1cced Hard. On the other hand, I'm sad because it means now I'll have to play Lunatic if I want to do anything better.
