+therealbountybob Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 14030 Hardened Criminal! Close to MaPa's HSC record of 15190! Sounds like someone is after a bonus point if you guys checkout the new version before I do - please let me know what you think. We could run two tables with combined ranking points to make the overall table or have combined scores for both games if they are similar. I've only scanned the New Getaway thread but it mentions easter eggs - not sure if we should not read this and see what we find out ourselves by playing...

+therealbountybob Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Looking at the comments from HSC7 it looks like Getaway will max out, so yes to that HSC record bonus point Better: 11,750Holy crap does it get difficult! 15190After gathering three items "/" and catching the white car the game gets crazy and speeds up like four times. I was shocked but managed to get safely to hideout but then it was "impossible" to continue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) Early attempt at the standard map of Getaway. Score $2260 = Rookie Robber. Notice that I lost $630 and then $880 on the last two cars, money that I didn't get to stash away. Does the game keep going on the same map, no end of level until the game eventually becomes impossibly fast? This is the first HSC game this season I've never seen before. Edit: Bonus score on Kaverns of Kfest: 32570 pts (depth 1485) Edited March 20, 2017 by carlsson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ultrasteve Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Two reasons why I'm not going to be so good at Getaway! 1) I lack the patience for a methodical approach to a game like this. 2) Time - definitely the sort of game you need a lot of that to rack up a high score with. Very enjoyable though - but am I right in saying that once the police are on your tail it's almost impossible to shake them off? Anyway, first go (and only, so far) - Rookie Robber - 3370 (and annoyingly, 560 not banked!) And then Kaverns of KFest. Loved it! Twitch gaming at its finest. My weapon of choice was a Quickshot II Turbo. Definitely prefer a microswitch for this kind of game. Two runs, and a high of 36052. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) Standard game $8010 - Crafty Crook Edit: I had a play with the new map as well and scored $2290 - Rookie Robber. I find the new map smaller than the original one. Lots of gas stations, a couple of detours with only one exit, the home base is more central but perhaps trickier to steer into. Not sure if I like it, but if my assumption it is smaller than the original game is correct, theoretically one should be able to finish the game faster as you would have less streets to drive around to find your loot.
