I captured Keine's General Headquarter Crisis 7 times... in 10 tries. After watching a lot of replays i see some people cheesing it by going to the right/left corner of the screen. Not only does that look quite wimpy but it also takes forever to do that. I wonder why people do that anyway, its probably one of her easier spellcards though i wouldn't stake too much there.

It didn't crash this time! Hooray! It's (feels like it's) getting easier the more times I do it. And I slightly (oh so very slightly) beat my first 1cc score.

C'mon 'nut! If I can do it, so can you!

As an aside note, credits to anybody who can survive LLS Stage 5 pre-boss waves on Lunatic (I don't think rank affects it?).

Durrr... http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=3823

So, out of curiosity... does it still count as a perfect stage run if I failed Keine's last spell right at the end? :V

Spring Kyoto - Not sure, again. This could be static. The circle shape is static, but I'm not sure about the direction they go off in. It seems pretty much the same every time.

Not quite. I believe the card is actually aimed, but that the tight dodging causes you to tend toward the same movements every time, making a faux-static pattern. I noticed this when I failed a no death/no bomb run of Stage 3 on Kyoto Dolls because I got greedy and started the card by shotgunning Alice because I thought it was static. I ended up dying because something in the pattern changed and threw off my somewhat memorized dodging.

The above pictures are images of two different runs of Kyoto Dolls, viewed through Camtasia to get them at as close to the exact same moment as possible. Image 1 began with shotgunning, image 2 began with me cowering at the bottom of the screen. Note that the difference from one to the other is the angle of the bullets relative to Alice. It's the same pattern, but fired off in a slightly (but noticeably) different direction.

So the card isn't static. Assuming it is indeed aimed (as opposed to random), this won't really matter and you can pretend it's static for 95% of runs. It's when you assume it's static and change up your strategy because you -think- you know what you're doing when you get yourself into trouble.

Yeah, it's aimed. Over time, I began adopting the same movements I used from previous runs, and soon enough, it became pretty trivial. Think something along the lines of SA Stage 4's streaming section.

Cool times, and thanks guys. Glad to have the confirmed.

Damn... I think I've hit a bit of a wall. EoSD Lunatic 1cc seems to be going nowhere fast... I keep making really stupid mistakes on Cirno and Meiling and not having enough lives to finish the rest. <_<

I could get used to this.

How do you survive the "Balls of Death" (3rd Phase)? I clip even using the other two shot types, and it takes far too long to get through because you need to be on the side for about 70% of the time.

Found it out myself. Uploading~

Survived with the Spread Type. Now an awesome challenge for me is to survive without double-tap nonsense.

Good luck. The reason I loathe Evil Eye Sigma's fight (though I've now accepted the tank himself to be fucking awesome) is because I beat him without knowing about the rapid fire. It took about 20 days of straight playing, and most of those never passed his second phase (keep in mind I was also less skilled back then).

saiyoucho · « **Reply #70 on:** July 10, 2009, 03:18:01 AM »

I just beat MoF in a 1cc on Easy. xD
Dunno if you could call that an accomplishment, but I've never played it on easy.

I almost managed to make a perfect run of it, but after Sanae butchered me like usual, I just gave up on that and just beat it instead.

Though I gotta say that I really don't like that ending. =_=

Forgot to mention for a while:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPDhZ_5lG4w

The SoEW Extra Clear, with "Movement Type" as it would be called. It's not that bad with double-tap. Hell, I would say that the entire game was designed with reliance on double-tap in mind. I don't see a way that it should be possible to clear off the stage portion of Extra (with minimal deaths, or reaching Max Power) without double-tapping, particularly when the wave of "blobs" start filling your screen.

Also, that's SoEW Extra cleared with all 3 shot types. Now what shot type should I use for the "added handicap" of no double-tapping? I'm leaning towards "Defense Type" (or even "Movement Type"; won't hurt if I try), after failing several times with "Attack Type" because I wasn't moving fast enough.

nintendonut888 · « **Reply #73 on:** July 10, 2009, 06:33:17 AM »

In all aspects of the game, I think Reimu B is the best one.

Also, if I get really masochistic I should try 1ccing SoEW lunatic without the double tap. I managed it for hard mode, so I could probably do it for lunatic as well. Still, it's not exactly something I've ever gone back to once I discovered rapid fire and discovered that ZUN stated to do it in the manual.

Fair enough.

...I think I just found out how to perfect IN Tewi on Lunatic.

Oh wow, that's interesting.

Also, I appear to be out of practice for Reisen.

I managed a surprising no-focus cap of Sumizome Perfect Blossom -Seal- just now.

I think it was also an no-focus Easy 1cc (despite my absolutely horrible deathbombing skills), but I can't for the life of me remember if I've [actually focused] during the other stages.

Replay to come once I've reviewed the damn thing.

Nuclear Fusion · « **Reply #76 on:** July 10, 2009, 06:08:37 PM »

All Youmu's cards captured in one run. Only parts messed up were her openers, which I refuse to misdirect.

I think if I ever perfect Stage 3, I'll try stage 5 next.

Drake · « **Reply #77 on:** July 10, 2009, 06:38:18 PM »

Oh jesus lol. The first time I try PCB after the VSync patch I beat Ran 4/3.

LHCling · « **Reply #78 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:34:45 PM »

EES isn't that bad, even after taking away double-tap now.

Hell, I even almost managed to clear without bombing on EES (after a no double-tap run of the stage, reaching 6/1 and over 8 million points.)

_{The stage is still a different story, especially with the "Defense Type"}

EDIT: I just noticed how easy EES is. Without double-tapping, it's just an endurance test.

EDIT 2: Done. No double-tapping, "Movement Type", SoEW Extra Clear. Uploading for 'nut~

Yes, I'm one of the horrible people who use Unregistered HyperCam 2. It does the job fine for me, and I really can't be bothered changing. Anyway:

That's the score before the "boss kill" score was added (3 million if I recall).

EDIT: That should also be sufficient proof.

Okay, now do it when you were a hard mode player who still had troubles with normal mode!

2cc'd PCB Lunatic after a bunch of tries.

Man, what a kick in the balls this was. Although, I think comparing each stage's increase in difficulty from Hard is really noticeable. I perfected 1 and lost no lives to 2. Stage 3, 4 and 5 were death, but I found Youmu and 6 to be quite easy.

Kanako Yasaka · « **Reply #83 on:** July 11, 2009, 02:10:21 AM »

There. Just 1LC'd Orin on normal without trying at all. = I don't see why she's considered hard. Utsuho is much much harder.

nintendonut888 · « **Reply #84 on:** July 11, 2009, 02:26:49 AM »

It's because Orinrin Land doesn't begin until lunatic. D:

Zengeku · « **Reply #85 on:** July 11, 2009, 07:59:14 AM »

Orin is kind of like Youmu. At Normal she is very easy. At Hard she adopts some pretty dangerous attacks but at Lunatic she will slaugther you with hellish spellcards and attacks.

Sapz · « **Reply #86 on:** July 11, 2009, 10:52:43 AM »

Grrr... died with Scarlet Gensokyo at around 1/5 health to go. So close...

It wasn't even much of a good run (probably partially to do with having some alcohol in my system but whatever), I managed to die twice on stage three. <_< But I managed to pretty consistently use all my bombs so I guess I just managed to survive, plus there were some unexpected captures like ZA WARUDO. Died with bombs in stock twice at Remilia, though... if I'd avoided that the clear would have been mine for sure. Will try again later, I guess.

Please do. I'm not sure how impressive you can make PCB stage 5, but I wanna see it and am too lazy to download your replay.

Sapz · « **Reply #89 on:** July 11, 2009, 06:59:41 PM »

HAHAHAHAHA HELLL YESSSSSSSS EOSD LUNATIC 1CC'D WOO BOOYAH etc.

Mannnnnn... that was intense. My heart is still pounding from that. Hehe... I remember months and months ago, I was having a similar amount of trouble but with Normal and with max lives. Oh how the tables have turned, EoSD! Having said that, I still got raped by Scarlet Gensokyo as usual, but I'd stockpiled enough lives for that for once. Pretty pleased with Stage 4, IIRC I captured high or max rank Rage Trilithon High Level, Silver Dragon and Emerald Megalith (still not great at estimating ranks, bleh). Not much else to say... but it feels good to be a lunatic at last.
