/jp/ - Otaku Culture

The best time of the week has come!
Sadly, I still suck at danmakuing and haven't practiced at all, so... beating Koishi is impossible. I don't have that Extra unlocked, anyway.

Good luck to everyone who tries!

sage for /v/

>>4258059
I still laugh at how 4chan doesn't understand what sage means.

If only I knew moon so I wouldn't have to spend time on a board that imports foreign concepts and then DOES IT WRONG all the time.

Using sage as a way to "insult" someone's post or thread is just completely wrong and a retarded misuse of a good feature that is so popular in sites like 2ch and Futaba. Fuck, iichan and 4-ch do it right. It's just 4chan and 4chan's lame knockoffs that fail at using sage.

The true meaning of sage means that YOUR POST isn't worthy enough to bump the thread. It's ironic, because you think that you're insulting others while you're just, in fact, insulting yourself. Yes, sage can be used when posting a derogatory comment in a thread that you don't want to bump, but posting with just the word "sage" accomplishes nothing but contribute to spamming the board. The trend of replying with the name of a tripfag and sage is even worse, as it accomplishes nothing and only serves to increase the e-penis of whoever you're "attacking".

The sage feature was never meant to serve as an implied insult or general disagreement! Why people started using it that way is beyond me. There are plenty of reasons why one would choose not to bump a thread with his reply. For example, bumping threads with stupid one liner replies should be discouraged and those people should be coerced into using sage instead.

I want to use sage, yet I almost never do it on 4chan because people will jump on me thinking I'm insulting their post or something.

>>4258092
That was unnecessary.

Failed 'Philosophy of a Hated Person' at the Last second.

I haven't gotten past Sanae yet, but then again I played SA Extra Stage only once before. Guess I'll give it a go again in a moment.

>>4258092
I love this pasta, haven't seen it in a while.

>>4258137
sorry
I would play this round but SA extra is my achilles heel and I haven't played Touhou regularly for a few months and im kinda rusty

I'd love this stage more if I wasn't hung up so much on safespotting Sanae's third spell. Didn't try to this time.

I can't run the newer Touhou games on my netbook!

Already loses, no surprise. But whatever.

>>4258179
>>4258242
We will be rotating games like usual.

>>4258201
Woah, this is interesting. Did you got the 7,000 graze only for safespotting Sanae? I haven't tried that yet. I only get 3,500~4,500 for a normal run.

>>4258294
Oh, no, no safespotting. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Most of the graze chasing came from spending two bombs at the point where small fairies come in from both sides of the screen, then two more for the rows following Sanae.

I haven't even unlocked Extra yet. ;_;

>>4258320
I'll try that. Thanks.

15 minutes!

>>4258320
Most common is around 3,300 graze because I'm grazing only three of the arrays half the time (can't consistently nail the right spot for the main shot to hit).

Second attempt. Sucked, but it was very fun. I now understand why so many people like Last Remote, it's a great song.

Bleah. I'm sure I'll get beaten, seeing as I'm not the greatest at these games, but... at least I can finally start participating in these now that I don't completely suck. =P

Nice to get back in the groove of EoSD. Been focusing on SA lately.

Suggesting a GENETOS round.

>>4258823

That would be nice. Genetos is so easily modifiable though. So specifics would be cool.

jesus i haven't seen one of these threads in forever.

>>4258861
/v/ crap. /jp/ plays superior danmaku games.

Since there's a while before the next round. Pretty nice as far as life preservation goes but only captured two of Patchouli's spells.

can someone teach me how to beat princess undine?
I did pretty well this time, but got fucked by those small blue bullets between the streams of big ones again.

>>4259011
You hope the small blue bullets (and more importantly, Patchouli's movements) don't fuck you over. That's all.

>>4258823
>>4258861
Taking note.

New round in a few minutes.

>>4259011
You have to learn how to move between the small bullets and don't move to much and you will be fine.

>>4259015
okay going down under the list of "the spellcards i will never beat, ever" along with Satori's black death butterfly.

>>4259022
yeah I always find myself flanging out too much trying to get through those big blue ones, but i'll try sneaking past between them the next time. Are they kinda like Yuyuko's opening attack where the gaps all line up so if you just get into one, they all pass by you, or will I be fucked if I do that?

>>4259035
Black Death Butterfly is amazing and you should feel awful.

2. No replays (the run must be played by you and at the moment).

You have until 17:15.

>>4259035
It is aimed at you, so how you move it is how the spell card behaves.

I was actually thinking of making one of these threads very recently. Nice to see you, Danmaku.

Nice thread, how about some PCB next round?

>>4259131
seconding this.

Stage 3, normal

Good thing I've practiced the first few stages...

>>4259196
On some games you get a clear bonus after the dialogue ends. Keep that in mind.

Never tried to go for score before.

Should probably have been more careful with deaths around spell cards and bombed more outside of them.

>>4259203
Ah fuck, thanks for the reminder. I forgot to take into account the extra 5K base item value when considering whether to summon more UFOs or collect more tokens.

>>4259124
Nice to see you around aswell.

>>4259131
>>4259180
Next is PCB then.

Since my normal score was taken away by super grazing...

This one can just as easily be beaten, since I was dicking around a lot and fucked up some spell cards.

Does graze do much these days anyway? I used it a lot when it gave me points at the end, then used it less when it became less obvious what it did (like auto-collect in SA)

>>4259335
It increases the value of point items. Ten points for each ten graze. This may not sound like much but it really adds up due to the ludicrous amount of point items in UFO.

Never unlocked for Sanae B again since the partial score.dat wipe.

PCB Stage 6 Normal mode winner: >>4259735.

>>4259911
I fucked up and killed the fairy after the first wave of green stars, but other than that it was a nice run. I captured all the spell cards, though I did die once to her 2nd non card.

>>4260010
Cool Marisa B.

About this level, are there some parts of the level where you just have to sacrifice your faith for a good 3-4 seconds, or do I just need to actually sit down and practice this?

I suggest Dodonpachi ๏̯͡๏

>>4260078
Yeah, noticed the shot type wasn't banned this time and figured 'why not', then I felt terrible afterwards ;_;

Oh hey, I still can't take screenshots of MoF...

>>4260082
You have to lose a little at the part I mentioned in >>4260068, where there's a long delay between the large fairy showing up and the next wave of enemies, but if you don't kill it, your faith goes down MUCH slower than if you had. Other than that, I don't think there are any parts where you can't keep your faith up.

or

Shoot the Bullet, Level 8 Scene 3. You can do all three.

106k.

36k.

23k.

Don't remember what I did to get 30k+ shots on this scene. Probably should've looked at my replay.

This one had a fairly simple pattern to remember though.

I am still a believer in the theory that people who play stb for score must hate themselves alot.

I wonder how much that photo would've scored if it were a nice shot.

Clearing the scene is enough.

>>4260374
Actually once you know how to complete the scenes with a degree of consistency, scoring well on them isn't such a big step. Why is there such a wide belief that StB is too hard?

Never beaten 8-3 before (hell, I'm still missing two scenes in level 6). Here's my first two in case the round passes while I'm still struggling.

>>4260409
Never said stb was too hard, but man after completing some of those end scenes (9-6 Im fucking looking at you) I never want to touch them again, guess I just prefer some stage with my patterns.

>>4261238

First 1cc on Programmer too. Made A LOT of fuckups early game that translated to me being really tense during the later stages. Zero Shift, Burning, and Orbit made for a really, really, really fun time though.

Standard user level, ended up with Normal / Cross / Laser (but I had Normal / Circle / Laser for some time. What). Not bomb-spamming is hard when I get the Circle bomb.

By the way, does the FPS count on this game cap at 30?

FPS does indeed cap at 30. Or 31 if you happen to be me.

That was fun.

Well went for max score with death bomb recharge spamming at the end

Could you delay the time for the Genetos round a bit? I just got back from eating.

Simply awful.

I am pathetic, but I'm still proud I finally succeeded in clearing first Touhou game on Easy. Yeah, I kind of suck.
Failed both of kaguya's Last Spell's pretty epically... but I finally made it.

As a side note, Reimu in stage 5 usually kills the hell out of me whenever I fight her. Any advice?

Stage 4 you mean. you could pick a team that doesn't fight Reimu, but imo Marisa is harder anyway.

>>4262069

What.

I can 1CC IN on easy and capture all of Kaguya's spellcards, and I am absolute shit at Touhou. There's no way you're worse than me.

It's painful. But hopefully now that I've established I can clear it once, I can claw my way into the ranks of merely sucking at the game...

>>4262105
Assuming you aren't including the Last Spells which is what the other anon brought up. It's pretty easy to fail them when you have no idea what's going on, and everything that comes before them for Easy don't really push your dodging ability up to par for those spells.

>>4262142
How do you play? To suck so bad that 1ccing IN easy was hard you'd have to be horrid at all aspects of touhou. Knowing when to bomb, not wasting bombs due to death, memorization, priorities, obtaining more lives and bombs, using focus, not using focus, actual hand-eye coordination, reading danmaku, proper use of your shottype, efficient movement. I want to see a replay of yours just so I can see what it is you do.

Where can I download Samidare?

>>4262211
http://rapidshare.com/files/206701683/Samidare.part1.rar
http://rapidshare.com/files/206468308/Samidare.part2.rar

Maybe.

>>4262188
I pretty much just started - my mistakes are usually stepping too far, or getting corralled into deathwalls - so basically I'm a complete newfag at touhou. I have some basic concept of what to do, but not enough reflex and precision yet to avoid very well. The first five levels are cake, even for me, though Reimu/Marisa usually beat me down to two or so lives, because I'm sloppy about using bombs defensively, or waste my bombs in rapid succession offensively.

I also don't know how to post replays - I have a few from when I just started and was completely terrible, none from more recent plays. You'd have to give me a bit of time to make one, since I'm not in the habit of saving them, if it's not that much hassle, I could certainly appreciate improvements to my technique. Also, you guys could probably use a good laugh.

>>4262069
>both of kaguya's Last Spell's
There are four or five, actually. Failing too much doesn't let you see the others.
Keep practicing! As long as you're not too lazy, you can get better just by playing as much as you can and still enjoy the games. By the way, trying harder difficulties than what you're used to helps a lot, or so I've heard.

Who would refer to bullet hell games as danmaku? Oh that's right, a casual gamer who's first shmup was Touhou
