DRL: Xtreme Arena
MaiZure:
Done!
Your career average just went through the roof :P
Tormuse:
Wow... That is a big difference! :o
Does this mean the higher ranks are impossible now? (Is there some secret to getting Chaoslord rank?)
MaiZure:
All the code I quoted about ranks a few pages back was from this version...and ranks aren't tied to score at all although they are highly correlated.
My guess is that it IS possible, but it would require planning and knowledge of all possible ways to gain rank points
EDIT: For instance, had you killed KK and gotten that terrible terrible survivor ribbon, you'd be 3 ranks higher, which would have been the highest so far in this version. Also, did you get the Cybie Head or Spidey brain? Those are both worth an extra rank in terms of medal score. Shadow Cross is 1 point shy of 2 ranks. Those could have put you all to Chaoslord
Tormuse:
Hmm... Sounds like my biggest barrier to advancing ranks is my inability to avoid damage, then. :P I'll have to work on that.
MaiZure:
Yeah there's really two score systems in play here, one of them based on getting through the game (Score) and the other based on fringe heroics/achievements (Rank/Medals). It makes for some oddball possibilities like...A huge score with low rank, or vice-versa. But like I said, a lot of it is guesswork without knowing the system. The game wasn't popular enough to get people really trying to break it down like that
EDIT: It's actually not too different than DoomRL, except no one ever looks at the "score" part of the mortem...only medals :P
