How Cool I Geometry Wars
« Reply #45 on: December 05, 2005, 08:53:00 AM »

Dear sweet jesus... 492,000 points and I have a twitch in my thumb; 8000 more points... mad.gif    I can't fathom 900K points.  I have a new found hatred for those tiny blue star things.  Is there anyway to kill them all without using a bomb??  I've even tried saving the black holes for the fuckers and all that gets me is more blue shit flying at me when they blow up!  But I love a good challenge.

This game is really cool, just sucks when you start over it takes forever to get back up to the 100k zone. I just got 421,300 and was it hard. I just dont understand how to get through those little blue guys...they seem impossible to beat without a bomb. Also how do you get multipliers, sometimes i will get 4x 2x, etc....but how do get up to 10x...what is the trick and what makes a multiplier?
I think we're all out to lunch on the tiny blue stars... they are an impossibility.  As for the multipliers, you get a 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, etc.  the longer you stay alive.  As soon as you die, you go back to 1x.  The key to get 10x is stay alive the whole way to 10x.

So now i have stayed alive all the way to 272k and still did not get a muiltiplier, does anyone know how long you have to stay alive for to get up to 10x. Just made it to 696K....gonna hit a million tonight.
It won't be a big deal, but if you're score is that high, you HAVE to be getting 6x and 7x by then.  A little bell like tone will sound when you get a multiplier and it will flash up behind the starburst of the enemy you killed.  

The Triangle has been on so I've not played in 3 days... Have to get on that tonite.

I finally got the pacifism achievment.  I got 250,000 survival and 326,000 high score and I was so frustrated that I couldnt do the easiest achievment. When i did it just now i thought i didnt do it and then i was just messing around and then when the game was over I was like hell yes slut.

between geometry wars and hexic i dont need any 360 games, they are just so much freaking fun.


when i got survival 250,000 i think i only finished with 260k. it was nuts, the best ive ever done in one life and the worst i did with the remaining 3-4.

my high score is 565k

I was like number 80 on the leaderboards...the catch is that I won my 360 from Mt. Dew, and got it on the 19th, and it was the first game I downloaded, so there wasn't much competition. I've gotten up to 242,000 points, but haven't played in a long time. I remember thinking "this game is the shit", I guess I'm not alone in thinking that. I'm glad there has been a lot of buzz about this game, since developers will see that, and hopefully make more games like it. I love the old school, retro arcade feel, with the cutting edge graphics, particle fx etc.

I recommend downloading some nu-skool breakbeats (Adam Freeland, Uberzone, Rennie Pilgrem) and bumping it while playing.

Yeah, I downloaded the Mutant Storm Demo, I only played the first level or whatever, seemed like GW......I might have to get the full version and have some fun with that.
