Why do Shmup players choose their pain? At least with fighting games if you get past the thousands of hours of labing, knowledge checks and are capable of consistently performing at a high level and are genetically blessed with a good enough reaction speed as well as the ability to not collapse under massive pressure you can at least win tournament money and get recognition from a large community who are willing to watch you play the game live. Shmupfers (Shmup fuckers) have to go through all the same shit for their 1cc clears but no one gives a shit.
I'm already alone anyway
Uh shooting and dodging stuff is fun
>>744407475shmupfers (shmup fuckers) utterly annihilated holy fuck
>>744407475Yeah bro people play fighting games to win a dunkin donuts gift card in some fightcade kusoge
Shmups are among the simplest genres out there. The range of actual knowledge and techniques you need to develop is so small that you can learn everything in a single day, compared to years of something like a flight or racing simulator.If the basics can be learned in a single day, then that means shmups are easy, right? No, they're hard, just as hard as trying to throw a small ball into a trash can while blindfolded. That doesn't mean you have to be particularly smart or talented to get good at them, though, and that's why the genre attracts so many weirdos. The shmup fanbase is among the worst of all, second only, probably, to trannies and speedrunners.
>>744407475Flying around and shooting things is fun. Shmup is one of the only genres where what you see is what you get.Where you spend 100% of the game doing exactly what's advertised on the surface instead of the filler activities inevitable for other genres.No need to do fetch quests for annoying NPCs or backtrack across the map 50 times or solve bullshit puzzles where you have to activate some generator or do any other chores.You just fly, shoot, and dodge.The trade-off is that what you do get is difficult, but it would get pretty boring otherwise.
>>744407475hold on is this some kinda devil survivor shmup?
that was a nice stream
If we view competitive video games as e-sports, how do shmups and speedrunning differ from activities like golfing and bowling? There are far more solo sports than team sports.Track and FieldSwimmingBodybuildingCyclingBoatingFigure SkatingRock ClimbingShootingetc.It shouldn't be hard to understand a digital extension of that.
>>744407475Woolie you will never discover your Nen and be on Schmupgod Pats level. Deal with it.
>money and recognitionlol what a dumb faggot
Day 4 of DDP, I'm a bit sad I didn't get the 1cc since I was so close yesterday but I'm more consistent overall, still trash thoI'll spam stage 4/5/6 tomorrow without caring for the 1cc probablyWhat are you guys playing this week-end?
Come chat about shmups onhttps://heahy.com/c/shmvp>what's this?A site made by some /g/ anon, you can create chats or forum-like channels on it.At least it's not discord, and not really an altchan either.
>>744409768Think I'm gonna keep grinding the Blue Revolver Hyper, just need a run where I don't fuck up on bombing and it should happen.
>>744409859Is blue revolver any good for a newfag?
>>744409791You just can't help yourself.
>>744409950Yeah I think so, just play on Normal and maybe do some of the missions, there's a mission with nothing but enemies that shoot aimed bullets at an increasing rate so that one will force you to learn cutbacks which are pretty useful.
>>744410009Anons asked, so why not.Found something cool to play with
>>744409859Ganbare, I'll watch if you stream it>>744409950NTA but I'm trash at shmup and managed to get a normal 1cc of it without much experience so I would say yeahIt's cheap too and I never had any issue running the game
>>744409413Caladrius Blaze. The fanservice gimmick of the game is that your character and boss enemies have their character portraits undressed the more damage you do to their ship. It would be amazing if it wasn't for the fact that like 80% of the cast are minors and it's just fucking weird. I looked it up on the wiki for Iris. She's 11. The fuck.
>>744409768I have to attempt to tie this devil blade route together. Will be the second highest score in the west by like 10 million points, hopefully. Technically I already have that position but I've only completed like 3/4 of the route. Not very impressive since this isn't exactly a popular game to score, but it's a fun (and stressful) experiment nonetheless.
>>744410075>>744410119ah shiet, nice, I'm gonna pick it up then, but waht about Crimzon Clover, I've seen a lot of people talk about that one too
>>744409768i have been playing both versions of mushihimesama lately and that's it. Learning maniac and going for 1cc normal on both.
>>744409768Anon is going to stream DDP in his sleep at this rate.
>>744410329https://xxgameroom.itch.io/blue-wish-resurrection-plusThis was my first 1cc. Crimzon Clover was my 2nd. Crimzon can be pretty tough but it's one of the best looking games with lots of power ups and huge lazers.
Can someone recommend some shmups with awesome music?I need good stuff pumping why I play, I don't know why people underplay the importance of music in games.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Sa2ymKCQUI&list=RD9Sa2ymKCQUI&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6ERj-_lPls&list=RDS6ERj-_lPls&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAtQG83fnqQ&list=RDLAtQG83fnqQ&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhD8T7Q9QU4&list=RDQhD8T7Q9QU4&start_radio=1Need games with music similar to this
>>744410519I already started to have a tetris effect with bullets while falling asleep, and it's only going to be worse since I plan to play it every day until the end of the year>>744410329It has a novice mode and a score attack mode, as a fellow newfag I recommend it too
>>744410210>It would be amazing if it wasn't for the fact that like 80% of the cast are minors and it's just fucking weird. I looked it up on the wiki for Iris. She's 11.Back to pleddit retard, this is a loli website

Anyone here know some good horizontal shmups OTHER than Deathsmiles? Last time I was in one of these threads the only one that got recommended to people was Deathsmiles. It's great, but I need more horizontal shmups in my life...
>>744412423No one likes the psikyo ports. At least here, feels like they are a little overhated, I could at least do a loop of sengoku blade on it.
>>744412502Progear
>>744412502You know the answer in your heart.But if you want CAVE specifically, play Akai Katana
>>744407475Yo, is building a piece of shit DIY arcade stick from parts from aliexpress worth doing or do I just continue using my pad?

Truxton Extreme is proof that shooters will never be even moderately popular again. The game solves all the problems that normalfags have with arcade games, but even so, it has zero market penetration (it has only 19 reviews on Steam 24 hours after release).Some features of the game:>extremely polished 3D graphics, which is rare in shmups>a long story mode with 3 characters, featuring high-quality illustrations and an interesting story>a difficulty level accessible to casual players, but with enough scoring depth for good players>full-screen 16:9 action (finely tuned for perfect gameplay)>a relatively long single-loop arcade mode (casual players hate games that end in half an hour)>it's not a bullet hellIn other words, it's a really good game that has everything to appeal to people who aren't fans of the arcade style, but guess what... Nobody gave a shit about the game.And before Mark's pretentious followers start shitposting here like the faggots that they are, here's a positive review of the game from a skilled player:https://youtu.be/9XQsb6f2XLU?si=gu9MpdVvAY-YJv1U
>>744413442Iconoclast literally got paid to review the game lol, yet another big stain on this guy's credibility
>>744410210You have been traumatized by this game. Just play as Caladrius, the male magician, or the shota. Though well, there's still the bosses.
>>744407746i never could get into these games with little girls flying around. they just seem so gay and childish.shmups should be exclusively about spaceships and mechs blowing up other spaceships and mechs. simple as.
>>744413442Did the game even have any marketing?You would only really attract a few Tatsujin fans otherwise.
>>744410210
>>744413632Gunbird 2 has the coolest mechs in any game ever
I mean, that new Truxton just looks trash I don't know why anyone would want to play that
>>744413757It looks pretty actually but>widescreen vertical>long-ass stages
>>744407475I play shmups because they’re meditative for me. Especially dodge ‘em up bullet hell games. They’re absolutely one of the best type of games for inducing a mental flow state. The memorization and repetition aspect while still demanding focus makes them very relaxing. I also like fighting games, but that’s an entirely different head space and definitely isn’t relaxing for me.
>>744413518This is not that different from Jaimers getting paid to showcase new releases/ports on his channel, though iconoclast is more willing to say what he doesnt like.
>>744414027this + the music most of the time kicks ass
>>744414154But jaimers is also not credible?

>>744414806Like I said, the faggots who follow these pathetic figures like Mark, Boghog, and that whole troupe of clowns who confuse rationalization with criticism don’t understand SHIT about game design, and they’ll find ways to try to discredit a game that is proof that shmups will never be even remotely relevant.The game uses a combo system for items that multiplies the points they grant by up to 10x. However, the actual maximum is 12x, you just don’t get access to the 12x multiplier until you’ve unlocked the game’s two extra weapons (progression, something casual players love in their games).There's a reason for this: the game isn't exactly the same when you haven't unlocked the two extra weapons. If the game started with a 12x multiplier but a smaller range of weapons, then someone could develop an optimized score strategy for 12x/5 weapons. That would lead to the worst-case scenario, where people would keep resetting their progress every time they played, which is ridiculous.The "ideal" solution would be to remove progression entirely, but as I said, this game is clearly an effort to bring shoot'em ups back to a wider audience. And anyone who's serious about getting a high score will have to play at least long enough to unlock the two extra weapons as well, so it's not as if it makes any practical difference.You won't hear any of these fags (Boghog, Mark) say anything like that, because they don’t know SHIT about video games.
>>744415745Crimzon Clover solved progression by giving a reasonable amount of 1up extends just from scoring well during your run. Most games just give you a stage 3 extend and call it a day.
>>744415745I unsubbed from you after that vid dude :(
>>744407475Any other shumps with good fanservice like Caladrius Blaze? Saidaioujo has the swimsuits which add a difficulty modifier so they are pretty neat, no clothing damage though.
>>744412502seconding natsuki chronicles, very cool customization and the stage based story mode is fun. great music too. i've yet to play the arcade mode much, it rubs me the wrong way
>>744415916So you used to follow my channel where I played Mario Maker 2 levels created by the anons here?
>>744410248Didn't ask
>>744414993That reminds me of something I've been wondering for a while. Are there any actually decent mobile shmups? It's not something that gets talked about a lot, and probably for good reason, but I mean, the simplicity of the genre lends itself naturally to mobiles. So there has to be at least something right?

>>744428742i played it because i thought the "undertale-like shmup" meme was funny, and i gotta say zeroranger is genuinely nothing like undertale i don't know where the comparison comes from
>>744424690Keep posting it, you have my blessing.
video game genres are all bullshit. I'm sure you already knew that, how many times have you seen a game advertised as "adventure" or "action", fucking useless. this game is evidence that even very specific genres like "shoot-em-ups" are actually a hodgepodge of different types of games. the problem is that genres are defined by some surface level aspect, such as "an autoscroller where you control a character and shoot waves of enemies", not ever considering the core intentions of the game design, which could be "memorizing patterns, shooting and dodging in a 2d plane" or "idk watching all the explosions while wildly flailing around and then you get to buy some wacky new gun with the money you collected"this game has more in common with those old "desktop destroyer" stress relief "games" than with other "shmups"
>>744428948I think the meme comes from the fact that zer0ranger and undertale both have semi-hidden alternate game progression paths with tons of lore and a different ending and both use meta-game 4th wall breaking sort of stuff for it
How many times should I practice a route/section on a stage before I consider it "ready"?I currently have a "if I can do a section 9 out of 10 times in a row on average (with whatever resource usage for the route) without messing it up, it's run ready" rule. So if I do 9/10 full stage 2 runs in a row, I move on, do a few runs of both Stage 1 and Stage 2 to make sure the routing works in a full run (accounting for rank changes and stuff) AND then move on to starting Stage 3 routing (section by section).
>>744429164Toby Fox has never played toho. He is one of those poser fags
>>744429089pretty much. sometimes I will see how many total continues I still need to finish the game. Try to have a few planned bombs and eventually you will be able to remove them as you dodge better.
>>744429238I saw him stream EoSD LNN 481M once
>>744407475My skill issue for both genres is on another level. I can't clear the first stage even on the lowest difficulty. Usually it's 2hu games I've tried but the most recent game I tried was SFIV.
>>744429312Ok,. I believe you
>>744429089Section is misleading, because if a stage has 10 sections, and they all have a 10% failure rate, and there's 5 stages, well, obviously that run is not going to clear. This would on average be 5 deaths per run, if you don't have any deaths planned.

>>744425735Just saw the stream, you were close, good luck on the next run Anon>>744426262He streamed Blue Revolver not DDP, I'm the A-L anon and I'll keep playing A-L, the problem is sadly me and not the ship (I'm trash) but I'm slowly learningI'll forget forcing the 1cc today and I'll focus 5 hours routing stage 5 and 5 hours routing stage 6
Crazy how just from the box art most people think this is a jrpg or something. Also interesting how strong a reaction it gets most times you post it. There really is something about it, you know?
>>744440456Why is it considered the best in the series?
>>744440518SDOJ is the best, Cave swan song and magnum opus.
>>744440562lol
>>744440456You know you're in for kino when you can't tell it's a shmup game by the cover art.
>>744409768I'm also trying to 1cc ddp and stuck hard on stage 5-6 so I'm taking a break and do something else
>>744440456Shmups have like 2 styles of cover arts:>ship flying in sky/space>character artworks thrown togetherDOJ is one of the few, but not the only one doing something different.
>>744440769Noooo! We have to clear it together! If I can do it you can do it too!
>>744440456I hate shmups. There is something incredibly evocative about this cover art, though. I have loved it since I was a child. I wish it were an action RPG with a story that rivals the cover.
Looking for a mech shmup
>>744413632I agree.Where are the shmups with little boys
>>744441413this but unironicallyI guess we have mushi futari palm but I still think reco plays better in most arranges
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg3JdAR0CX4
>>744443929Are we Mushi music posting?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5e4eZupG8cc
>>744444046Why not. A good bgm helps a lot with motivation while grinding
>>744435324I guess I'm not a big fan of when the statue shows up in stage 3 of Sengoku Ace because it's the hardest of the early bosses and I remember it giving me a lot of trouble one time, but it's been a while since I played IIRC it's less spammy if you dismantle its parts in a certain order
>>744440456This is the aftermatch of the second loop. You can see Hibachi wreckage in the background.
>>744413442>shooters will never be even moderately popular again.Why should I care if a genre is niche. We have a few hundred great Shmups over the last 30 or so years. I'm happy to get a retro game like Truxton Extreme or R-Type Final. Hopefully M2 will convince Konami to let them make Gradius VI, or at least get them to do an HD Remaster of V because damn that game still looks great for being on the PS2.
Is there no way to update shmups for modern audience without tacking on pointless rpg elements and progression systems
>>744413442>set up bait with remixed Truxton 2 soundtracks>come the gameplay, barely anything in it is related to Truxton 2; the most egregious example being the hi-speed level music in Truxton 2 being used in yet another typical regular-scrolling level
>>744446648I'd say the zeroranger route is the simplest way. Make actual 1ccs optional and make trying and losing repeatedly both a narrative and gameplay design feature
"if you're "suddenly" forgetting parts of your routing in an actual run and miss because of it that means you didn't practice each section individually enough on its own and were just trying to vibe clear the game as fast as possible"Is this true?
>>744448243No, there's many other reasons why you can forget parts: stress, fatigue, focusing too much on other sections, external factors breaking your concentration (noise, heat ...)
>>744407475Is blue revolver worth 15 buckaroos?
>>744407475because it's a genre for casuals like singleplayer arcade gamesmost shmup fans would crumble against random fighting game niggas from the hood
Finally back at Game Tengoku after not playing for a few days.Need to get more consistent at stage 4 planes even if I definitely figured out the route, and sometimes I still fuck up the midboss and boss 2nd pattern. Maybe I should just bomb them.Feels like I'm consistent enough at most parts of stage 5, even if the plan is there is bomba as soon I see a crowd of 8-bit enemies or the dots section. Still can't pull off the no-bomb boss strat, but I have enough resources either way.Stage 6 I need to remember to not shoot much if I don't want to hit those enemies firing revenge bullets. Or I could just wait for a good day where I somehow do everything right, been a while since I tried to route without states.
Time for DDP, good luck with your own grind/goals /v/bros
>>744450006Most random fighting game niggas wouldn't be able to 1cc the average Cave game without extensive preparation. What the fuck is that argument.
aw yeah time for another 10 hours of DDP
>>744450143>>744450383Old shm/v/p would be proud
I hate how DDP just recycles stage music like that. And doesn't even have a separate theme for Hibachi fight
Good ol' stage 5 corridor
What's with the increase in shmup threads the last few months?
Okay I have to check how to do stage 5 triple hangar section as A-L and without bombing, I just can't comprehend it at allThere must be something I'm missing
>>744453240That section is just really harsh. You will get trapped very easily without a wide shot or knowing how to manip enemy movement. Probably easier to keep your bombs for it with type A
>>744453351Since my ultimate goal is to be able to No Miss loop 1 before I start training for the second loop then I must learn it right now... So far from the 2 1cc videos I saw with A-L they just die and then spam bomb the whole sectionI could understand stage 6 even if I haven't routed it properly yet but this section in stage 5 really seems like the hardest one in the entire game by far
>>744453447That part is the hardest in the game, especially with A. Much easier to learn literally anything else.
>>744450145What Caveslop games were in American arcades during their heyday zoomie
>>744453150One or two schizos doing some very extreme samefagging
>>744453496Sadly the A ship is way too cool for me (those 2 rotating turrets are satisfying to my brain)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di1WKxs7sNQThis is the only video I found where they don't bomb through all of it and it looks like I need to do less U movements huh, maybe I was too focused on trying to kill the tanks in the middle
>>744453802Haven't played in a long while, but I remember the solution was figuring out how to make those hovering enemies move where you want. Enemies in the center aren't the biggest threat.
Oh I think I got it, I'm already more consistent with it now
>>744453912They seem to be an issue if I let them shoot, but now I get the strategyStay in a corner, wait for a blue tank to come, swipe mid stutter a micro frame and go to the next corner, wait for the next tank, repeatAnd when a hangar is there I have to bait them into shooting left or right before I do anything else and repeat the process twice until I get to the big hangarI see how to do it with no bombs now, but doing it consistently.... That's another question....This part is actually SUPER fun to do now that I know the trick, I need to figure out the right path before going for a tank each time, it's really fun
>>744409791>made by some /g/ anonYou mean slopped by some newfagA real /g/entooman would have made it work without javascript
>>744455207Dude who made it said he was interested in testing meteor.js specifically.
>>744454172>>744454984Looking at the stream, I think the only part you are not getting right is moving a little too quick from the sides. Would probably work better if you misdirected for slightly longer
>>744455481Hmm, thanks for the advice, I'll try this right now!
>>744455481>only followers can commentretardedi dont think hes getting it anyways. need to TAP down on the side of screen SLOW and cut FAST when theres a CLEAN LANE
>>744456261If I don't do that I get like 3 bots a day and they talk to you like real people because AI is advanced now or they are form india or something and after 7 or 8 back and forth they try to sell their art or something, it's way too annoying to deal withI read the thread anyway
>>744456261Yeah maybe a better explanation is>being in top-half, on the sides>tap down for a little to keep misidirecting>cut to the other side when the screen is clean enough >repeat to the other side
>>744456385the point is you're buying time, the bullets linger too long and get messy. you're pretty much expected to bomb here. when you hug the wall and stream down, you're buying time for an opening to appear. if you pull down and dont see an opening, bomb and start the process over. using 1 bomb there is perfect, nothing wrong with using 2.
>>744456620I know, I'm not the one playing.You can get through without bombs but it's kinda harsh, especially without a wide shot.
>>744456680>I know, I'm not the one playing.im just trying to fully describe the nature of the setpiece
>>744456261>only followers can commentNot him, but what's the problem here? Is it too hard to click follow? Are you one of these niggers who only accept "follow for follow"? Fuck off with this shit.
>>744456798>Is it too hard to click followwhat if I don't want to follow? i dont need this in my feed, it pings my phone lol
I removed the follow thing but if I fall for another artist bot scammer I will KILL MYSELF
Are restreaming and cutbacks part of the same thing basically? I'm probably doing them already, but I'm still confused which is which and I'm seeing them used interchangably? You tap dodge slowly away from a stream of aimed bullets, then unfocus and do a fast movement a bit quickly to create a gap (since the stagger aimed shots will lock onto that new position) and then move through that gap that created, right?
Did arcade players back in the day bring camcorders inside so they could screen record their runs and then go back home and look at it with an NFL instant replay highlighter to work out the gaps and such in the patterns?
I'll practice today, I promise
>>744440979BlaZeon
>>744458157they spent $100 a day on credits to play stage 1-2 for the whole day
>>744453536What does this have to do with his question?
zoomie retard thought ameriniggas knew what doodoopoopy was in 1998 lol
>744459103Good morning saar
MOOOOOOM THEYRE MAKING FUN OF ME AGAIN
I don't care about 1CCs.I consider a shmup beaten even if I've used like 5 credits.
I am getting defeated, I have no strength left... what do bros?
>>744458936>how dare they not know how to play a game they don't know existsVery sound logic, so what's the latest super hardcore game your favorite eceleb made an essay on?
I realized what is killing me the most in stage 5 are the zako (heli? this is what people call them) and not the ufo or anything else, and they always drop on the same height then shoot at the same time and if I stay in the correct line I never seem to get hitOverall I managed to do the whole section 4 or 5 times without using bombs, so I think I can do it with 2 bombs on a real run now...
>>74445939241%
>>744459405>how dare they not know how to play a game they don't know existsDo you have proof they would beat the game with ease if they knew it existed?

>>744459712>no proof from Japanese WR: no one cares>screenshot on /shmupg/: stream with facecam and handcam or didn't happen
>>744459990for the 1cc stage 3 was my bottleneck, 4 is free and 5 i just used resource spam5 is gonna be harder than 3 if you want to do the no miss
>>744458157no they just watched each other while waiting for their turn. even in modern arcades i got exponentially faster watching other people play iidx. they taught me how to practice and how to hold the controller and we never even spoke a word to each other
>>744407475Figthing game players have to move on to the current game constantly and with each new iteration every franchise becomes shittier and shittier. Just look at SF6.
>>744460203This is just what watching streamers is but worse.
I hate Mushi, there, I said it.
>>744460617uh oh you said a tranny schizo trigger word
Arcades dying is good. If I was alive for the heyday of arcades, I would probably be a really shitty player because I'd get really nervous from all the other kids watching and judging me. I dunno how people managed to practice in this environment, but then again I'm more autistic about needing personal space than most people
>>744460671Yeah stage 3 was too hard
>>744460617its different dude trust me>>744460875if you're autistic you can just ignore them and focus on the game only lolarcades teach you to be more clutch and coldblooded
>>744460875>I dunno how people managed to practice in this environmentThey didn't. In America, cabs would get vandalized (intentionally or unintentionally) and be out of service for months. Not to mention Cave hardly had any presence in the US. The only bullet hell shmup cabs I've ever seen here were for Raiden.Rail shooters like Time Crisis 2 and rhythm games would draw crowds.
Good final pattern
This final pattern looks so ass
>>744462217>me when cave game except it's every pattern
Any ddp romhack without music so i can use custom music?
>>744462360its called adjust the volume nigga lmaoi usually grind while listening to an external radio
>>744407475>Shmupfers (Shmup fuckers) have to go through all the same shit for their 1cc clears but no one gives a shit.False. You only have to do that hundred hour grind once. The knowledge you have from that game will transfer over to every single game just like your fighting games. What we call this is.... fundamentals. Fundamental can be abused so long as its the same genre you have invested time and dedication in. For example, Soulsfags have Dark SoulsDark Souls 2 Dark Souls 3BloodBorne Elder RingSekiro...Wochang Fallen FeathersKazanAI LimitCode Vien 1Code Vein 2Lords of the Fallen Lords of the Fallen 2Nioh 1Nioh 2Nioh 3Wolong 1Wolong 2See... once you have spent enough time in the first few games you gain the fundamentals to quickly adapt and understand all the other games. In fact if you good enough you see past the game and straight into the 1s and 0s - matrix code >inb4 completely missing the point and some dumbass argue about "soulslop" which I dont care about since I have never played any of these games beside the anime ones and Nioh
>>744459990I actually find original harder than maniac in original mushi
>>7444599904 takes a bit of learning but is otherwise pretty easy, watch out for the green beetles especially. I mainly play 1.5 so it may be easier or harder there. 5 is the final stage so it's hard but also perfectly doable, it doesn't pull an Espgaluda on you or anything like that
stage 3 harder
>>744440979Try Hyper Duel, it's very good.
>>744446648I don't hate what th15 did
>>744465523That's pointdevice mode, right?
I don't know what it is about the music in DDP but I find it almost hypnotic and it doesn't bother me at all, usually I always put some podcast or something else in the back but I haven't done that once with DDPSame with the bees, I heard most people hate them, why?
>>744415921Otomedius Excellent, maybe? Also the Dragon Maid shmup, but it's low effort
>>744435591route nigger route
>>744467571Shmiggers never heard of routing
>>744449309If you have 120 or more monitor then its required playing if you like shmups. There are only a few 2d sprite games that are above 60 fps.
>>744458157No one gave a shit about all this extreme playing back then. There was no good way to share it. Maybe in Japanese arcades they did, but those people live at the arcade.
Sigh… i wish i had mushi on switch so i could play at the hospital… Sigh…
HELP!!!!!!!!! Stage 4 and beyond is so fucked up. Need tips please!
>>744468518stage 3 harder
>>744468518Figure out a route that works, or go watch Jaimers or something.

>>744471238Always milk stage 1. Why? Because if you aren't even scoring that, you'd go insane from all the replaying
>>744471238If you're talking about DDP no, I'm just trying to figure out how people manage to get 192 hits on it despite never reaching 191 myself, I should probably check a video to see what they do different tho

>>744472561gz
>>744473484>8 hours ago>It's just a theoretical score, you can't do it!!!!
>>744473480That is how you do it. Start at the replay selection screen, press record, click on the replay you want to record, sit back and let it record the whole run.
>>744460264I'm retarded. What's wrong with this clip?
>>744473598Kids today are so lucky. Back then you had to record while playing live and delete every failed run.
>>744473480For future reference, the replays on mushi and dfk have about a 10% chance to dsync so record while you're playing. Definitely don't want to lose a replay.
>>744472673THIS is 15?
>>744473624Drive Rush mechanic is as cancerous as V-Trigger. Round Start DR is even more braindead.
>>744473823This is indeed The Princess, Age 15
>>744473567what are you talking about stupid nigger
Is there any shmup where you can do a pacifist run of it? Any of them that people tried their luck at or managed to succeed at?
>>744474278I'm sure you can do thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oxGZUfeo0c
>>744474278ZeroRanger, I recall there also being a replay board for pacifist touhou records.
So let me get this straight: its bad when I post gameplay because I'm not a superplayer master and I make mistakes sometimes, but when I actively try and get an impressive score, I'm still shit on and mocked while some guy's unremarkable Mushi original 1-ALL gets circlejerked? This is so unfair. Nothing I do pleases you assholes. Just admit that your grudge against me has nothing to do with video games, you're just mad I called you out and you're gunna torment me regardless. I am honestly sickened by the dishonest clique-mentality on display here. No gameplay allowed. Just blabbing about nothing until the bump limit, because all you care about is taking up space
>>744474392you're not me
>>744474392get owned faker
>>744468518any chance we are going to get this on steam?
>>744474424>>744474481Fuck off. Seriously, what have I done to warrant the hate? I honestly cannot tell, for the life of me.
>>744474392you get hated because you are an obnoxious faggot
>>744475092>if I pretend to be someone and act obnoxious, that means it's trueSure thing
>>744475052Nobody told you to use an avatar.
>>744475092No, not really. I just play the games, post gameplay, help when I'm needed, and don't suffer fools lightly. It seems that particular mix of traits paints a big red target on my back, because these retards are constantly frothing at the mouth about me, looking for any tiny reason to tear me down. That's why everyone else can play as poorly and as little as they please, but when I post anything less than a WR, suddenly its a problem. Don't believe me, just refer back to>>744472561Like congratz on the clear I guess, but understand it really isn't anything special. In fact it kind of sucks complete ass. Meanwhile I posted my Mushi original clearhttps://youtu.be/6bS1TAs72jsfrom back when I was getting really into shmups and learning the ropes. The trolls descended upon it like a Spartan army, review bombing it, insulting it, in just in general trying to degrade me. Obviously this score (that I outright acknowledge was pretty bad in its own right) is better than that Anon's. So where's the hate for them? Where's the legions of angry shitters trying to tell them to give up and join the 41%? The answer is fairly obvious if you have a >50 IQ. It has nothing to do with skill level. You all just have some weird personal beef with me for reasons I can only conjecture. I've been made a scapegoat by bad faith actors and tourists who despise shmups and want shmup players to be miserable. The wave of hate against me has nothing to do with my thoughts or actions.
On the main menu of DDP, does it change anything if you change the ranking from normal to very hard or something else? I don't even feel the ranking in this game except when I die and I see the enemies shoot less often for about 30 seconds and then it goes back to "normal" difficulty
>>744475829I guess it will only max out the rank a little earlier.
>>744475787You're not me, what is your malfunction dude
>>744475787good job on the 1cc anon
>>744475695I do not and havw never "used an avatar". I simply collect funny pictures of my waifus that I post occasionally to appear irreverent and cultured. That is not at all the same as, say, the retarded pedophile from /vr/ spamming pictures of Load Ran crying about how terrible his life is. It actually used to be fairly normal until goobergate and the election ushered in braindead reddit tourist cattle by the thousands to ruin this website.
>>744475942Makes me wonder why it's there then, maybe they messed it up? In R-Type Leo changing the difficulty doesn't do anything either despite having a dipswitch for it
>>744475954Well, I'm happy you are obsessed with me enough to both copy my exact score AND get a better one, but I do think it's weird you spend so much time seething over and imitating a simple shmup player such as myself. Work on getting your own life in order before trying to live someone else's.
>>744474392>>744475787>>744476057Kys faggot
>>744476120Difficulty dip isn't always very impactful, but there are some exceptions. Not counting fightans, TSS or similar games where you fight a CPU, there it actually matters.
>>744476172>Well, I'm happy you are obsessed with me enough to both copy my exact score AND get a better oneYou know the reason I don't get nervous when I go for clears is that I know I'll be hated no matter what. I could get a world record and you'd shit your pants and smear feces all over the walls and say I'm trash. I remember Gus saying something along the lines that none of this matters and to just focus on your own goals. Imagine being worried about gaining the approval of the subhumans here.
>>744476210I won't. You're words can't stop me. In fact, these threads have given me a whole new reason to live; humiliating and destroying utterly ignorant retards like you. Seriously, I get a natural high better than any substance could possibly provide when I imagine my opponents roaring in anger, drool and snot and sweat and tears of blood pouring down from their faces onto their keyboards, enraged they can't get me to break. Honestly, now I kind of understand my bullies in school. Picking on retards like this is half the fun of posting at this point.
What's the last shmup you guys managed to play for 8 hours or longer?
>>744476462Well, kiddo, you're right about one thing - I WILL be hated by subhumans like you no matter what, something you know full well because I suspect you're just another one of my trolls who stalk me religiously waiting to chimp out if I so much as breathe. I'm gunna keep getting clears and high scores and you're just gunna seethe and impersonate me, until the day either of us dies. You'll probably go first, either due to suicide or because you're 450 lbs and at constant risk of a heart attack. Either way, I'm happy I've accidentally given you a reason to do something besides sleep and jerk off and talk about RPGs all day, even if it is just out of autistic obsession. Wishing you the best, little buddy!
>>744476762D-dodonpachi...
>>744476762I did play DOJ a lot once on december two years ago, but I don't think I could do 8 hours sessions despite finding it fun to grind it daily.
>>744476594Also, just to clarify, despite my bullies picking on me, they didn't do it because I, specifically, was retarded. Far from it, I was a gifted, talented kid they were all jealous of, which is why they targeted me. It was their other victims that were retarded.
>>744467245Otomedius is pretty good yeah, shame about the 360 jail.
>>744476225Very Hard dip switch in Garegga increases the rank much faster and it caps at 111.6%. The rank caps at 84.6% at Easy difficulty, which is honestly not that hard, since this is the average stage 7 rank for most Gain scoring runs out there.
>>744476919Yeah obviously more impactful in a game where rank has a significant effect on gameplay-
>>744476762Spolous 2 must be very good
poser thread
>>744477979*poseurSee, you're such a poseur you don't even know how to spell it right. What a world we live in.
>>744476762touhou
why do people say dodonpachi when the title screen guy calls it dodonpach
>>744475787Please, PLEASE get a trip so I can filter your tranny ass.
Now a divisive question...Horizontal or Vertical?Which and why?
>>7444793264:3 horizontal so I don't have to rotate my monitor.
>>744479326I'll play either, but its vertical>vertizontal (as some retards like to call it)>horizontal. Vertical for bullet oriented shmups, vertizontal for object oriented shmups, hori for grim dadgamer shit where you avoid walls and its the digital version of pic related.
>>744479195it's called doodoopoopy
>>744479326With vertical most the threats come from the top of the screen and shoot down at you and I think I prefer that. Horizontal games seem to make way more rounded use of the screens, you get plenty of stuff coming from right to left but also from the top and bottom, stuff coming from behind you is more common/accepted too, also horizontal games are way more likely to feature terrain which I really don't like.
>>744479314No. I want EVERYONE to see my posts. Not because I want your validation, its worth less than shit to me. I just want to watch you idiots squirm like the insects you are.
>>744479743I hope you get better soon.

Retard question about Deathsmiles: how do you shoot upwards against the second form of the final boss? I see people do pic related in clears but there's nothing like "shoot up" in the control scheme, and I never needed to do it in the rest of the game. I'm playing MBL version btw, did they remove that there or something?
>>744479794you know when you fall for it like a sub room temp IQ neanderthal you just encourage it
>>744479880I barely played DS but you hold both shot and bomb buttons
>>744479880You enter the auto aim mode, also makes the game lag like shit so dodging becomes way easier.
>>744472876it's up https://files.catbox.moe/69e52d.mp4
>>744480640>No audioGood enough.
>>744480640just upload it to youtube dude
>>744480640>16:18wtf lol
>>744480640Cool, I guess? Still don't know why this is okay but my runs aren't.
>>744480640Based on your reckless dodges, I wonder if I can clear it on first try or at least a few tries. I play shmups for years, but I never bothered giving it a try solely because I don't like the "bugs" aesthetic. Bugs are nasty and boring. Though I have to admit that the game looks fun gameplay wise.
>>744479326I'm the only person in the entire world who genuinely prefers horizontal. It just feels better when you're scrolling left to right. I dunno why people make such a big deal of preferring vertical
>>744481687Hori gives me tunnel vision. I can only see half of the screen most of them.
>>744481687I prefer both but I've been putting a lot of time on hori.
>>744479326I play both but I don't like crashing into terrain, so games like Progear and Deathsmiles are absolutely good. Gradius has the terrain thing but I still like Gaiden despite everything. Hori looks better on my displays since I am not turning a monitor or TV around.
Shmup bump
Soon I'll be back to working on Futari stage 3. Once I get that down it's over.
Good night shmup/v/My vision is scrolling down IRL
>>744485016No, don't give up. The bump limit is right there.
>>744485130But it's almost 2AM here...
>>744474278ikaruga
I did it, 33mil clear in devil blade.
Awooga
Some of you shmiggas are alright.Don't come to the arcade tonight
>>744487101I might stream after Summerslam
I wonder how would /v/ shmup slam work
progear 2-all y/n
What are your guys' thoughts on the old shmup difficulty ranking?https://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=56114It seems pretty useful overall, but I can't believe the first two Gradius games are ranked below every single Psikyo game. I'd never say Gradius II is easier than most stuff from Psikyo. Like bro your speed level?
https://youtu.be/uAoSqCkuRIkdevil bladewas pretty fun, but I think I've probably played this enough for now. lost like 2 million points to an unplanned death right at the end but its bound to happen somewhere i guess. the score can go so much higher.
>>744418736In the OP?This neurotic faggot's been making unhinged posts about shmups and psychology for a fucking month at least.
>>744490618seems fine to me
Streaming Blue Archive now
>>744489834It's alright. From now on we should tell beginners to start from rank 0
>>744489834>I'd never say Gradius II is easier than most stuff from PsikyoDo you really think a gradius 2 1-all is harder than gunbird 2
What's the Shmup Plaza discord and how do I get invited to it?
>>744491849Why would you ever want to go there, they have no actual players
>>744488868Progear is sick anon, go ahead, badass hori
>>744492207Everyone keeps mentioning that all the evil villains live there and I want to go and see for myself.
>Play a 16:9 Hori like one of Akai Katana's arranges>Literally get lost in the bullet patterns because the screen is so fucking longI can only do 4:3 horis

We should do a poll to decide the best shmups.
>>744493174Its Vampire survivor
>>744493174Its Undertale
>>744492254Ring or Bolt
>>744494091Bolt/Nail seems to be the best at least for survival
>>744474278I think every stage of Subterranean Animism, including Extra, has a no miss pacifist run, except maybe Stage 5https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7TbOFosizcLots of the 2hu games are mostly pacifist friendly even on Lunatic, outside of some unreasonable stage portions and boss timeouts.
My, my. What happened to the bravado. You were all so confident before. First it was>lilshmuppy is a stupid shitter who can't score to save their life!To>W-well... that score is purely theoretical! They'll never achieve itAnd now, when I've not only met my goal, but smashed past it? Pure. Silence. I love this so much. Seeing my enemies get so utterly destroyed that they can only stare at me in stunned rage. This is why these threads will always be a monument to my victories. I just improve myself and have fun. They can't stand that they can't bring me down to my level. Seethe, you fucking shitters. I have long surpassed you. Look up to me in weep in frustration.
The fact that even in the small ass shmup community you got to deal with shit like this basically tells me that every single genre including the niche ones are contaminated :(I know it might be just some 4chan fucks but damn I never expected this type of drama in this community lmao
>>744496467Well, while you were typing all that shit out I was doing what I always do when I get a clear, and that was seeing if I gained enough shmup smarts to make this pattern 100% consistent. And I finally did. So go fuck yourself falseflagger.https://streamable.com/1zr2ym
>>744496837>shit like thisAnd what is "shit like this"? Smug, ignorant poseurs getting humbled? This is a good thing. This used to be considered admirable. I would have been an example of a top-tier poster on old /v/. But because I was slightly aggressive when I said RPGs and Touhou are gay and you're better off playing a real game, I'm now forever branded a meaniehead and people will always hate me for no discernible reason. Not that I care. Their hatred only fuels my need to get better. Not only because its fun, but to drive these normalcattle into the dirt and utterly humiliate them. You should try it sometime. Its an elating feeling.>>744497051Knock it off already, dude. You'll never be me no matter how many images of mine you steal. Glad I inspired you to play a game, though. This is just one example of how you all benefit from my presence.
>tried to play Phelios >kept on dying in stage 2Sucks but I guess I don't got it in me tonight.
>744490451stop linking my channel here nigger tranny faggot falseflagger
>>744497736Dang, this is a treat. Not one, but TWO imitators falseflagging as me. You should give it up, though. Everyone knows who the real deal is, just by looking at my posts.
