Does this mean that ***PL***'s decision to not allow the bug is upheld and action will be taken (even though less than 50% of the public want this)? Or, will no further action be taken for now?
Kranser.
It means that majority has decided to allow the trick, period.
If you're still interested in Phoenix, check out my recently submitted two tricks at bottom of the page:
http://marp.retrogames.com/weird.htm
These show the 100k trick(yet unused at Marp recordings) ...
Here's my explanation to these tricks:
Phoenixc-recording, Shows how to get 100K at first stage, this bonus adds to your current score+ gives 2 extra ships(-lose one) which would come normally at 3K and 30K. Did it twice at stage 1 to see if you get 2 ships each time you do it: No, second time you just get 100K more and lose a ship. Maybe this trick has something to do with TG-record...
This bug/trick should work only at Phoenixc
Second Phoenix(Condor) trick is basicly the same trick, this time performed at round 2 mothership: I got +100K, and +5 ships!!! This is cheeky one, should not work at other clones...than Phoenixc, maybe. Rest of the game messed by trying to get 200K bonus
.....If Condor 100k trick works at PhoenixC, I could propably score with good playing:
200 000(the trick)+
170 000(by simply playing one full round without ship losses, full round is about 17 motherships-you start over at first stage, hearing the music etc)+
500 000(5*100k)
=870 000 points!!!!!!
And if you think that settings for extra ships can be different, TG record would make much more sense.
I've played Phoenix which gave 3 extras, not 2 as Mame does.
