John Salter attempts Armor Attack WR and 100hr Marathon
#324507 - 04/11/14 06:46 AM

26 Rollovers, well over 1 Million points.

Current WR is 2,009,000 points done on September 25, 1982.

The man has already marathoned for 70+hrs once...


And in case someone thinks that score is pathetically low when compared to what other titles were capable of [See Nibbler and it tracking over 1 Billion], take a quick look at how the game scores;


Tank body : 20 points.
Tank turret : 30 points.
Helicopter : 100 points.

Bonus is advanced by 10 points per tank.
By advancing bonus to 50, player scores an extra jeep which then resets bonus to zero.


John is at 38h45m as of this post. Halfway there baby!

I was going to say that's intense....but watching his game play, and it's obviously a killer strategy, all he's got to worry about is the chopper, and it doesn't shoot before flying right over, so he just shoots right when that happens.....move back to lower right corner.....do it again....move to upper left corner....and back over again....till your nuts fall off......

Seems he varies it for fun, but doesn't have to.



Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
