Why didn't I put Shock Troopers in the Olympiad? Because it woulda been a free win for me, that's why. I could take 1st without much effort, but what's the point? How does that prove anything?(posted 8802 days ago)If you know guys that can play the game "really well", here's an idea: TELL THEM TO UPLOAD THOSE SCORES TO MARP. Why do we need an Olympiad to induce challenges? If they can play the game that well, tell them to record and upload. You'll have to forgive my skepticism though, because I highly doubt they are at my level. If they can finish the game on one credit, that's great... but are they getting the maximum amount of kills through close-range attacks? Do they know the best route through the game for maximum points? Do they make the most of stalling in each level to bring more enemies out?
I'm not very arrogant and confident about too many games, but I can say this much about Shock Troopers - I have played it a LOT. And I can find nobody that has analyzed the game to the extent that I have. Yes, some guy in Japan supposedly got 31 million, but I'd like to see something like that with my own eyes. (I sense an obnoxious Hisa post coming...)
anyway, point is, there's been international challenges going on at MARP for a long time. The End.
