CRI

and here my doj score:
CRI - 215,676,480 - A-E - 1-5 - 1924 Hit

hope to increase this soon.

Plasmo

Plasmo - 378,955,960 - A-E - 2-1 - 2234 Hit

I'm extremely surprised to get such a high (for me) score after maybe half a day of stage 5 practice.(started playing DOJ yesterday evening again) This is probably the biggest gap from an old highscore I've ever had.
 :)

Pretty awesome score Plasmo!

The picture at the top really makes me want in on this thread. It's not a man is it? My DOJ record is around 27m - mid ST4  :oops:

GaijinPunch

It's a chick with a dick I think.

CRI

CRI - 225,025,640 - A-E - 1-5 - 1916 Hit


started stage 5 with 170 mil and 4 hypers.
argh! this could have been so much more.  :x

Plasmo

Plasmo - 411,259,390 - A-E - 1-5 - 2297 Hit

Bleh...at least 400mill...:/

Plasmo

Plasmo - 437,315,450 - A-E - 1-5 - 2314 Hit

Did a perfect (for me) Stage 1, 2 and 5 chain-wise so that's close to my theoretical max. I didn't reach the loop because i had to do a TRIPLE (!!!) suicide on the stage 4 boss in order to start Stage 5 with 3 hypers. My chain in stage 5 was 2238, the 2314c is from stage 2.
Replay recorded! If there's any interest I could try to capture it and upload it somewhere.

Budloc

budloc - 46.301.190 - A-E - 1-5 - Max Hit 1269

unfortunately i don't have a picture of this one, i'll have to buy this game to improve this score and then make a proper picture :)

jpj

updated  :)

no problem on the picture.  and it's good to see someone post many cave scores  :righton:

slateman

It's enough for last place, but it'll do!

I *DID* chain the whole first stage many times, I just start to suck after that!



slateman  - 45,361,280    - A-L - 1-4 - Max Hit - 809


Shalashaska

Decided to dust this off and give it a few credits. I still love this game but it still hates me. :( Doesn't move me anywhere but it's a personal best so meh.

Shalashaska - 132,694,980 - A-E - 1-5 - 1754 Hit

Started out as an extremely crappy run (even by my standards). I missed the x2 bee in stage 1, dropped my chain on the last 1/4th of stage 2 and died on the boss. Started stage 3 with 2 hypers and died before I was even able to use them but ended up doing better than usual on stage 4 and 5. Your video has inspired me to practice stage 5 though Plasmo. :righton: I have neglected it and I see now that's a terrible mistake.

I'm pretty happy with this score. I had a retarded death on the stage 2 boss (he doesn't like to be hypered) but other than that it was decent, for me anyway. :P I really need to work on the honeycomb section of stage 5...

copy/pasted from the shmups board.
gonna continue as soon as my ps2 got fixed.
Already gathered the cash, so i'll take care of it when back home:cool:

jpj

my stage 5 is getting much better :D  i can chain the honeycomb section, but in this run, i slightly mis-timed one of my sweeps :/  but that break in the chain was my only mistake ... apart from dying on the stage 5 boss three times ... :whyioughtta:



jpj - 307,490,830 - A-E - 2-1 - 1627 Hit

i could improve on this, but i'd rather get cracking on black label with my new patterns :righton:

edit: slightly less gigantic pic :lol:

Plasmo

Nice to see you playing DOJ again! Once you get that stage 5 chain down, your score will skyrocket. What score are you entering stage 5 with?

jpj

i bought the ps2 version, which has been excellent for practicing - even if the rank is a bit higher on full runs.  i made some mistakes in stage 3 and 4, but i did a decent job hypering the stage 4 boss (and no deaths), so started stage 5 with 150-160mill.  i've actually got a decent pattern together, and even when i go wrong, i'm understanding where my mistakes are :)  and actually i was slightly wrong before - i haven't learned how to chain into the last bee yet, always lose my chain just at the end.  how much is a full 1-5 worth...!?  250?

EOJ

Do you notice any difference in slowdown among the PS2 and PCB versions, jpj? If so, in what spots? Just curious.

jpj

it's a weird one.  on the one hand i think i did, but i don't know if that's because i was looking for it after that mihara quote, like convincing myself.  i will try it out again, but the area to look for is the honeycomb section on 1-5.  i think it's marginally faster on ps2, but if it is then it's very very subtle.  and bear in mind they could be referring to stuff on the second loop

Plasmo

A full stage 5 chain is worth at least 280-300mill (if you get all bees + 2300chain) However if you use the hypers at the right spots and get a 3000chain then it's worth around 400-450mill (without maximum bomb bonus!)

Where I can see one 3000 chain?
What the importance of maximum bomb bonus in fist loop final score?
Please!
Cool!

jpj

max bomb bonus for the 1st loop is about 30 million if i remember rightly, so not that high considering it is possible to get 800+ mill on the first loop.

to get a 3000 hit chain, you first need to do very well on the 1-4 boss, hypering the revovling turrets on the 2nd form.  it's possible to get 4-5000 hits and generate 4 or 5 hypers from him ready for the start of stage 5.  you also need to do a trick involving leaving a large enemy on screen, and only attacking it before it leaves the screen (a weird glitch means it wont die, so you can get many extra hits for the chain).  i don't know any vids on the net, but if you buy the doj black label dvd, that guy does some great chains (3500 hits even  :o)

full stage 5, at last.

i think you were slightly over-estimating plasmo.  don't quote me on it, but i started stage 5 with 4 hypers, and 190 mill.  so that's 320 mill with 2600+ chain, and that was chained into the last bee as well.

all on my last life as well...  =D
