XFR General Discussion Posting Guidelines

BEFORE POSTING, READ THESE GUIDELINES:

1.) DO NOT POST SUGGESTIONS FOR NEW FIGHTERS. Adding new fighters to an already huge roster (over 30 as of July 15, 2011) is of the absolute lowest priority.

2.) NO NEW STAGE SUGGESTIONS. All stages to be made for XFR have been decided.


3.) There is no native gamepad/joystick support. To play XFR with your gamepad/joystick, you must run a joystick-to-keyboard emulator and configure it accordingly. Please do not make any posts about the lack of native gamepad support. This is the most effective workaround to this issue.

Any post that contains any of these things will be binned on sight.

Stage Progression Chart (Updated July 29, 2011)

Updated July 29, 2011

To make an arcade run shorter for typical play sessions, three stages have been redesignated as Final Stages.

Stage 7 (Asteroid Belt) is now Stage F-A
Stage 8 (Temporal Warp/Dreadnought Echidna) is now Stage F-B
Stage 9 (BRES Colony) is now Stage F-C

Those three final stages are selected based on criteria. Each Final stage will have its own ending.

Also, EX stages have been changed so that a player can progress from one EX stage to the next (EX-1 to EX-2 for example) by getting the EX Warp icon in the EX stage.

Jesus, no one posted even ONE comment! *sigh*

Nice change of pace there JS, Like the R-Type Final Reference in the Final Stage Names. and I also like how you can just play the EX Stages only once you get to them, that's going to be a great challenge for any SHMUP player!
If I had a good signature, you'd know it by now.

Not sure if comments were really necessary here.

Well, I guess all my comments on this were on the old forum, so . . . I like branching level paths and multiple endings, so this works for me!  I'm not much of a SHMUP player, but this reminds me of Star Fox 64, which I like.

So... I can beat the game with the best ending by only going to EX stages and the final stage.

That's great.

That is if you can keep earning EX Medals which I doubt is an easy feat.

Especially in the EX stages themselves. EX-2 has a Miclus hidden during the boss fight, so yeah.

EX-1's own Miclus positions make getting EX medals within an EX stage very difficult at best anyway. I barely get the beginning four after the clouds even in some of my best scoring runs. Certainly the way of the challenger, that's for sure.

Note that it IS possible to get to the true last stage without necessarily going through EX stages by avoiding A stages and using B stages to skip the EX stages that you find too difficult (at least that's if I read the chart right). In this case based on the currently available levels I'd probably take a route of 1>2>3B>4B>EX2>EX3>EX6>F-C personally, to avoid EX1 since I have trouble with said micluses at that spot.
