Nv2.0 Completion Race

[Harvey]

Just a few things:
Still have to press Z to continue to next level despite changing my jump button.
Levels seem to be pretty similar to each other IMO
Think zap drones arre overused.
Ninja colours and messages for completion would be cool (guess this is happening)
Some levels are easily maxed out. Which is pretty suckish for HS
Cant quit a level after clicking on it, have to start the level (not sure if a bug but still annoying)
Some levels are pretty terrible, like all the ones that just involve quick shallow jumping over floorguards/drones/mines.

Other than that good job!

I switched from chrome to firefox and the lag is gone, but the visuals can be jumpy. Starting over cos I hadn't made much progress anyway. How far are you Harvey?

Really? I find that chrome is better than ff.

And also running Chrome as:
-Disable visual themes
-Disable desktop composition
-Disable display scaling on high DPI
really helps. So much that lag is pretty much non-existent very much less for me now.

[otters~1]

On firefox, had no lag whatsoever on any level up to and including one that had 20+ drones.

[mam]

applied those settings to firefox Raif, it's almost perfect now, thanks.

Just noticed this came out, my internet decided to broke again in a perfect moment, thanks a lot ISP :/
No need to hurry to complete it now that the comp is already over; anyway congratulations ska :D

Unfortunately I wont be able to connect to the internet in other hours than these (very late here), so I still wont play it for a few days until it gets repaired.
Anyway, pretty happy to see a beta finally released :D Obviously very glitchy, but still really apreciated.

Finally, I have only played for the first episode but, really ska, good levels? Shit man, I dont know about the style, but as for the HS competition, they seem to be fucking easily maxable. Do you guys know what that means? It means, as soon as highscoring mode is released, hurry as hell to max the levels. Seriously, if we were complaining previosuly because of 59-0, imagine now, 200 maxed levels, thats not fun :/ We are going to be on the boards just because we were here first, not because our skill.

And in other subject, you guys can have the standalone flash file here: http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/N.swf Just in case. Thats what im gonna be using.

ok, when I wrote "good levels", I meant from the perspective of the average player who isn't overly concerned about obtaining high scores. That been said, I'm obviously quite concerned about the linearity of a lot of the maps. I really think m+r need to dip into Numa and get some more grueling maps, or at least ones that are more open-ended.

2nd, I believe.

[EddyMataGallos]

Well I must say after beating it, the levels ended up being better than I had expected. Still dont reach the open-action-metanet-style of course, but better than I had expected. Heres an image:

Took around 5 hours to beat it I think, not including the 2 breaks (it wasnt even completed on the same day). So I guess im bronze.

[otters~1]

hey i am fourth looks like. first non-high scorer. here is the proof the squares look different when you beat them i think but i can't actually remember

[ska]

well done, mate.

[mediate]

And I guess I'm 5th and 2nd non-HS person to finish. Kind of enjoyed the levels, nice to see some of the N+ PSP levels in here.

[EddyMataGallos]

Btw the savefile is located in here: "C:\Documents and Settings\User\App Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\random letters and numbers\#localWithNet\where your n2.0 file is located\n_account.sol" in WinXP.
An example for those last folders would be "\Documents\Games\N\2.0\n_account.sol".
Im happy to see this time its protected against sol editing.

Wooooo!

SO. MANY. DRONES. D:

I have completed about 47 episodes. Intend to finish the game in a few days.

One bug that I noticed is that Laser drone keeps on firing after it has killed the ninja.

Another thing (it is not a bug, actually), I think the level 47-5 is a little bit incomplete. Some mines are missing. Check out this pic : here. BTW, 47-5 is one of the hardest levels of the game, in my opinion.

heh, clearly you haven't got to the end then ;D

but seriously, i also noticed and wrote about the unsymmetrical nature of the map in the 2.0 thread

[mintnut]

Was it 48-5 that was the treadmill level? That was a total pain.

[mam]

Yeah 48-5 killed me at least 5 times as much as any other level.

[Harvey]

Yeah that treadmills level is ridiculous. How many massive winding linear drone jumpers do they need...

[kkstrong]

I did it too. but obviously, I was able to skip 96...

[sayko]

It's late, but i've finished it too. Absence of "Kudos!" message at the end was kinda dissappointing.
But i've another complaint. I've finished the 99th episode, but it still looks like unfinished.
(Using Firefox 19.0.2, Flash Player 11.6, Windows 7)

Also what is the meaning of those ar0, ar1, etc. at end of the columns? When i click on one of them, the game start from start of the column, and keeps going. When I finish 0-4, I directly continue from 1-0 without interrupting. But I've never got enough time to finish one of them, because I can play N only in breaks in my job now.

[sayko]

In addition, I loved the "t minus X" concept.

Column speeding maybe? If so thank you so much M&R. I'd be impressed though given how hesitant they were on keeping ep highscring.

[Pheidippides]

ar0 et al are Arcade Mode. The way I understand it, the clock never resets -- even if you die. It's column highscoring with a side of one-life-challenge. Not for the faint of heart.
