What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Stunfest events, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret scoring routes on Dodonpachi, and I have over 300 confirmed 2-Alls. I am trained in dodging techniques and I’m the top grazer in the entire western STG community. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of superplayers across the western world and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can beat you in over seven hundred modes, and that’s just with my bare Sanwa JLF stick. Not only am I extensively trained in No-Missing, but I have access to the entire Arcade PCBs of the United States Arcadia Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

That, of course, is an invitation to laugh at Touhou in general.

I don't think it's a typo, it's using the official kunrei-shiki style of romanizing japanese words.

It's really rigid, the unofficial but more natural sounding hebpurn style of romanization is much more widespread but has its own flaws

What do you guys do? Do you stick religiously to one shmup or do you take breaks and try other ones out?

I try other ones if I feel like it. I also take long breaks between dedicated scoring practice (been playing Deathsmiles on and off for the past 4 and a half years, which is the only game I've tried scoring seriously in), and it usually comes back to me pretty quickly when I decide to start again after a break.

>>
>>146932387
i dont think it emulates the slowdown properly yet
stage 2 boss had barely any at all
>>
>>146931037
the only reason I'd be scoring is because I love a shmup so much that i want to keep playing it, so of course I don't care about anything else

any amount of hours, but limited by lifespan

because of this, it's desirable to be efficient about gitting gud, or you might end up throwing your life away for no justifiable gain

Less than 2 hours a day: The casual spectrum.

Between 2 and 3 hours a day: Optimal.

4 hours a day: Hardcore. A break is needed. The gains at this point are increasingly subject to diminishing returns, but are nevertheless present, justifying the expenses.

Over 4 hours: Protracted suicide spectrum. Severe diminishing returns on gainz means that such practice regimens are aimed at maintaining an attitude instead; known as "going full shmup", it is invariably accompanied by mental illness.

As in both main and secondary shots are stupid and it's hard speedkill smaller enemies with them. And to activate a gimmick that does most damage you need lots of bullets, which smaller enemies don't fire immediately.

So Futari sorts the counterstops alphabetically by gametag, except it takes several days to do so

>it's a cave fucks something up episode
>>
>>146947946
The fuckup was not setting the counterstop to some astronomically high number
>>
>>146948002
why is there a counterstop for ultra that's lower than in the other categories anyways?
>>
>>146948123
Black label counterstops at 9,999,999,999, which you can actually reach in god mode with double play.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKOj_0nSJ7k
>>
>>146947946
In the end, it doesn't even matter. Just watch the replay and see who did the best run.

>>146947946
Isn't that every episode?

All Cave Black Labels have higher scoring potentials

If you can only buy one, which do you get? RefleX or KAMUI?
>>
>>147017683
def kamui
>>
>>147017683
I prefer RefleX but I think Kamui is the better option here.
>>
>>147017943
>>147018089
I'll probably go with Kamui then. I'm relatively new to the genre and want to buy a few games before the steam sale ends. I'm considering RefleX or KAMUI, Raiden IV, Eschatos, and QP Shooting - Dangerous!!
>>
>>147018541
Buy Strania. Better than all of them.
>>
>>147018541
Reflex and Kamui are bundled together with Alltynex Second for what, ten bucks?

Something to consider

I noticed, but I'd rather not collect a lot of games I won't end up playing, especially if one entry in a series is better than the others. Mario Bros 1 and 2 are cool and everything but for someone new I'd just go ahead and tell them to play 3.

Looking to get more into shmups. Any suggestions for good entry-level games? All I've really played has been Blazing Star, and rather poorly at that. Was fun though.

Try Mecha Ritz, you can download the original game for free or get the Steel Rondo version with extra ships and stages for a few bucks off Steam.

How do you know, did you ask them?

Many top players say in interviews that they play lots of different games. Others even upload footage of different games to their online channels.

Back to bed Madolf shitler.
>>
>>147035384
>How do you know, did you ask them?
They say so in interviews. Vast majority of top-players play STGs only. Some just also play fighting games sometimes, that's it.
>>
>>147035708
Link to the interviews where Swy and Tac say they only play shmups.

>MON: My advice is not to spend all your time only on STG or even games generally, but to do a wide variety of activities. I realize that’s kind of strange for me to say. STG is of course interesting, but if you do nothing but STG, you lose sight of other things. Games are great, but its fun to develop other hobbies too.
>>
>>147036215
>Link to the interviews where Swy and Tac say they only play shmups.
SWY is a complete specialist in shmups. He most likely plays nothing else. And TAC goes to a game center with shmups only (seen in 100 Yen docu), so it's also very likely he plays nothing else.

>Games are great, but its fun to develop other hobbies too
He never said anything about playing other genres, just that you shouldn't just play games all the time.
>>
>>147036779
>He most likely
So you're just making shit up. I'm not surprised.

>TAC goes to a game center with shmups only
And? He could go home and play Final Fantasy for all you know.

>He never said anything about playing other genres, just that you shouldn't just play games all the time.
In the same interview he said he beat every mission in Monster Hunter with only the swords.
>>
>>147037240
>So you're just making shit up. I'm not surprised.
It's just common sense. Why would you play anything else when you are on such a high level in the genre? It'd be just a waste of time. Players like Jaimers also play nothing else, that's why they are so good.

>In the same interview he said he beat every mission in Monster Hunter with only the swords.
I know this interview and he didn't say this at all. You are the one who just makes shit up here. Meanwhile to players say this:

>LAOS: I think it was my neighbor, an older kid, who took me to the game centers. I think that was how I got into it. After that, whenever I had free time I played nothing but STGs. I didn’t play fighting games or anything else at all. Just STGs, 24/7. So I think that’s how I got to be good. So yeah, if you don’t put time into it, you won’t get better. Its all up to the effort you put in.

Tell me what? Jaimers is at least 10 times better than everyone in this thread.
>>

Are we talking about the same Undertale superplayer Jaimers?

>Why would you play anything else when you are on such a high level in the genre?
Why do you eat anything but your favorite meal three times a day?

friendly reminder that you're arguing with the kraut who has played 8000 hours of skyrim

>Are we talking about the same Undertale superplayer Jaimers?
His undertale vid was a pretty cool idea and excellently played. Also, nice cherry picking.

>Why do you eat anything but your favorite meal three times a day?
Are you retarded or something? Playing shmups competetively is not just like eating food. It's like making sport. When you are a very good football player, you also don't just also play tennis on the site, because it would a waste of time.
>>
>>147038116
>Jaimers is at least 10 times better than everyone in this thread.
Stop projecting, you have to be some special kind of retard to believe this. Pazzy posted in this thread, chum posted and banana posted just to name a few.
>>
>>147038351
Banana has played only like 5 fucking shmups in his life. Meanwhile Jaimers has like 200 2-Alls and excellent scores in a couple of games.

Stop being contrarian for the sake pf being contrarian and get fucking real.
>>
>>147038156
>Why do you eat anything but your favorite meal three times a day?
That's actually a question I used to ask myself. Or rather: "What's the point in eating something I really like if I can't afford to have it every day?"

I don't know where it comes from. But it's not healthy thinking~

However, SHMUPs are always healthy! But I can't play them for more than 2 hours at a time and per day either.

yeah, after clearing sdoj ex hibachi banana sure would struggle with those touhou 1ccs and donpachi 2-all

Jaimers has 2-alls/1ccs and great scores in all kinds of games. Cave, Psikyo, R-Type, Rayforce, doujin games like Kamui, Eschatos, CCWI, Touhou, whatever.

Banana merely played five fucking Cave games and that's it.

seriously though, why do some people believe that a player that has done something difficult should do 100 other things that are much easier to prove their true worth?

In this thread that solely be the kraut.
>>
>>147038875
Jaimers also has good scores. You make it sound like he only does easy 1ccs, while he has western records in Dangun Feveron and Rayforce, and did many other impressive shit.

Really good STG players do both. They specialize in some games, and also play many other games more casual.
>>
>>147039026
*might

What the fuck is with me sending posts so quickly.
>>
>>147039026
Not my fault, you fucking jew niggers are too casual to get good at the genre and therefor have to make shit up to believe you are a top player for having a single non-shit score.

Just because you have one single good score doesn't mean shit. You are still shit at 99% of other shmups regardless.
>>
>>147039276
lmaooooo kraut just owned himself

you have one good ikaruga score but your still shit at everything else get wrecked bitch

Trying to please everyone never works out. It seems to be especially true for the shmup community because everyone has a different definition of "gitting gud", and trying to meet everyone's expectations is just silly.

Do what you wanna do, play the games that you enjoy. Who cares if so-and-so person thinks that you're not good compared to so-and-so player? I'd imagine that forcing oneself to adapt to a different playstyle than you enjoy is a very easy way to stop having fun with shmups, and what's the point of playing if you're not having fun?

1. Kraut

>and what's the point of playing if you're not having fun?
To be the best, you fucking casual. Nobody who's any good plays for fun. If they say they do they're just lying and don't want to admit that they hate these shitty games and only play to be at the top.
