    Cheers on making it to mission 6.  I spent about an hour trying to get through mission 2 tonight, and could not.  I can certainly see why rapid fire is a plus for this game.  I literally had to take breaks to relax and stretch out my right hand between attempts.  I'm gonna keep trying though.  I feel like I'm starting to get a feel for the asteroids.  On my last attempt, I think I was nearly there, but I'd played poorly on the first section and earlier parts of the asteroid field and didn't have enough shields to power through.  Just need to string together a good run of the whole thing I think... or break down and drop into novice 😞

    The shame!

     

    Just kidding, I’m playing in novice. I don’t think the game was ever fully play tested and balanced, there is just no way.

    In your opinion? I feel like had Alien vs Predator and Tempest 2000 been two titles available at the time of launch along with having the promised third party support that Atari could have at least been able to put up a better fight

    Those games actually being available on store shelves in 95 might of helped. Babbages only carried the new stuff so the best games weren’t even available to me new when I picked up my Jag. Had to hit up Game Dude to get these games used.

    Finished mission 5 last night after several attempts. I’m not sure how it would be humanly possible to manually pump as many bullets into the boss as It took to finish him off. I just need to memorize the patterns on mission 6 and I think I’ll have it beat.

    Did you press RF button 3 times for 7 CPS?

     

    BSG = 5

    Raiden red shot = 6

    Zero 5 shot = 7

    Trevor McFur = 9

     

    I think I’ve been pressing it four times.

    Just received the Starwander Rapid Fire controller from @grips03 and it’s fantastic. It really helps with this game but it’s still hard as hell even on Novice. Starting fresh, I made it to mission 5 after a few failed attempts. The only advice I can give you is to make sure you hook your jag up to a decent HiFi and go into options and turn on the bass boost!
