    yes. you are rite. (talking wiz kid) 

     
  • my issue is you can accidentally score more points.
  • OK, I am getting variance with the normal weapon at the arms. Got 1K and 2K so far.

    Soon I will figure this stuff out.

    im pretty sure you get variance w/laser as well. 

     
  • When the ship and the option are perfectly aligned, I am getting 2K points from the arm:

    When they aren't, I am getting 1K:

    Let me give myself laser and two options since laser always gives 2K for them.

    It all points out to being able to align both perfectly.

  • it "felt rite" that time too. like, i knew 4k was coming out of that kill.... timing. in sync w/the game man.
  • OK guys, replay this and align your options with your ship as much as you can and see if you can get extra points from multiples enemies throughout the game  
  • At that one, you were aligned with the option.

    Did you have missiles too?

    i was aligned. full option. one missle. 



    i can confirm 4k WITHOUT being aligned w/the options.... so...ya   

     
  • im saying it the game clock. is that a thing? idk. you kill that arm at a certain time on the game clock is where the variable points is coming from.

    I've never gotten 4k for an arm in stage 1. Never. I have gotten 2k for killing them with missiles.

    i was aligned. full option. one missle.
  • I am onto something big.

    There is a counter on 0038 that increases every tick, but I tried to lock it with many different values to no avail.

    Let me see if there is another one.



     
  • Yo come join me on Twitch you guys, I am seeing something that you may find interesting.



    Lemme know when you can see me:



  • 001A has influence on how many points you get. By locking it, I managed to make an arm give me 0 points.

    Now to figure out how it is factored, and how it is increased.
  • Gloves is getting 4k from an arm with two options and regular bullets. Seriously, this seems to be about fast multi-hits on a target being killed.
  • I hate my internet. I can't even get on to watch his stream. I'm screwed.

    As I said in the broadcast, this seems to be the case. 



    I had normal bullets, two options. 



    When I had JUST that, I could ONLY get 2k from the golem. I tried easily 100+ times as is, and got 1 or 2k each time. 



    Added Missiles to the mix... 4k. I could get 4k pretty consistently.
  • Yeah, it seems to have to do with several of your bullets/missiles hitting the target at exactly the same time as it dies.

    Yeah, just rechecked the part of your video with sound and I agree with you and Bea here. Multiple shit hitting simultaneously a target on its dying hit.

    so can it be done consistantly? i got 3k and im pretty sure 4k w lasers on the later arms in stage one.
  • If you could align all options on where the ship shoot + missiles, maybe this could create the hugest multiple hits possible?
  • I locked their Y position so I can better aim at arm 1.

    I am getting 2K pretty consistently this way.
  • An interesting point to be made here - I've gotten 20k on the Stage 2 boss, consistently with full Option, Lasers, and Missiles.



    It MAY be possible to use this to get 20k on OTHER bosses as well. Which would be HUGE if you can pull it off consistently.
  • CONFIRMED!



    Holy shit.



    You can get 20k on the level 1 boss.
