Jeez. I still need to get expert mode.

Oh well. I recently got medals on Meteo and Katina. Yes, I got the warp jump which was pretty cool and amazingly hard.

When you're going to Sector Z for the medal, don't come from Zoness. You don't want Katt's help because she'll just steal points.

Make sure your wingmates don't have any damage when you enter the level so that you don't have to worry about helping them. You also don't need to worry about them stealing points from you if they're being chased. If mah memory serves, I think they can survive the entire level without your help if they have full health.

So just concentrate on finding enemies on the radar and don't go for missiles until the last possible second.

the route for the most hits is:

co-sy-aq-zo-ma-a6-ve on expert mode

this route has the most scoring potential of any route, but most people will want to take this route:

co-me-ka-sx-ma-a6-ve on normal mode

because for the other route to work you need to be very good at aquas which is a very very hard level to get good scores on (the current world record for aquas is 452 on expert mode).

hope that helps a bit ^_^

On expert or on main game?

Well, now it is no challenge at all for me to get over 300 hits.

back in 1999 or something, I had some problems with this medal, especially on expert.

where do you have problems there?

If you just bomb the mine field in the beginning you can get over 80 hits there...

Oh. I guess thats why. I used my bombs elsewhere.

That, and I restarted the level which sunk me in a bad position. Im going to try it again from the bottom up tomorrow. I have been playing Starfox for 10 hours straight.

Yeah, I hope you know, that you do not have to wait until the bomb hits a space mine or the timer runs out. By pressing the B-button again, the bomb will explode immediately.

Also, make sure you use your brakes wisely, so you can shoot down these satellites for the easy hit+3.

good luck...

Got the last medal. It was the mine field that did it on the first try, thanks alot. WOO HOO! Now Im part of the elite that made it to the Expert Mode!

The final score was 1234. Im not joking.

I like it when General Pepper goes either "Oh my! This is one steep pay!" or more recently, "What?!?"

i got a new score on macbeth 2 days ago: 389 hits.

i don't have any proof of it unfortunately (stupid camcorder wasn't actually recording the end screen when i thought it was :oops:) but the checkpoint on this run was 233 (would have been 298 hits if i had shot the switches instead of taking the boss).

It's been so long since I played SF64, I can't even remember the score. But I do remember it was VERY High. (As in, enemy craft destroyed and paycheck was through the roof. Literally.)

People who use the unlocked charged laser shot have kills that don't count.

Oh sure, that impressive high score might seem badass, but they are collecting kills that are not even there, using a glitch in the game's bonus system.

It is much harder to hit enemies with charged unlocked shots, if you kill three enemies by hitting the wall behind/next to them by using unlocked shots, then you deserve that extra point.

I do agree though, that on levels like Aquas, it's totally abused.

 

Yes, you can also get a few "HIT+1"s on Corneria by hitting stuff that is already killed; and you can  get HIT+1s on rocks on Meteo... but, it's takes a lot of skill to pull those off, and you can only get a handful of them.

Most of the time though, it takes a lot of skill to manage charged unlocked shots...

From now on, if you post a high score, it would probably be good to note if you were using charged unlocked shots (CUS) or not...

I'll admit, I do use unlocked shots.  But I also don't take the Aquas path... I only take the old fashioned route (C-ME-KA-SX-MA-A6-V2).  :cool:

But I would say that *most* of the time, it takes more skill to hit a group unlocked and you do deserve the extra points.  Although, It would be nice to know if a said high score has 'abused' the system (eg. Aquas hit spaming).
