MGL 31 - Game 4 ~ Moon Patrol

 

http://i1120.photobucket.com/albums/l500/sno-bee/MoonPatrolMGL31Settings_zpslppczsuj.png

 

Nominated by gamers: monojoker and zanderzone

 

ROM WolfMAME 0.106: mpatrolw (Williams)

 

Game Story:

The object is to complete the varying legs of the patrol course as quickly as you can while avoiding rocks, craters, mines, and attacks from enemy craft. Your buggy has two guns: a short-range cannon that fires ahead of you and an anti-aircraft gun that fires upwards. You can use the cannon to blast away rocks that block your progress. Most rocks will crumble in one hit, but large ones will need two hits. There are also tiny rocks that can only be destroyed with precision shooting otherwise you will have to jump it. The spinning saucers are particularly nasty, as they bomb the ground ahead of you and make fresh craters. There’s more, but you can find this out yourself …

 

Score Submissions:

Please make a new post for each score you post, with your score as the first line of your post, along with a screen shot showing your score and initials.

This game finishes Sunday 9 April 2017, 7pm Sydney time Australia.

 

Please make sure your settings are as above. No continues are allowed when submitting a score and must be played from the beginning of the game. No pausing. No cheats allowed. Games can be played at the arcade. You must ensure the arcade operator has the game at the MGL game settings for the submission to be valid.

 

GAME 4 … Watch out for the hovercraft …

Do I get triple points for this because my BAC is .15 or higher? :D

 

Got tomorrow off work for the Netherworld event and getting my liver in training for the kicking it's going to receive the next 3 days :D

 

Great game this one. Can't wait for Shane and Barra to give me some live hints this weekend on a real machine. Fantastic game this one, love it.

Got my first ever 1,000 pts for shooting the spaceship thing that you have to jump over and shoot as it comes from behind on the A-E stage of the championship round - is that the most you can get for it anyone know?

 

Really hoping to watch some better players this weekend play this one, would love to complete the championship level and then be in a position where I could marathon this game if I practiced.

 

The machine at NW is on 5 lives, with bonus at 10k, 30k and 50k. Hopefully we can get the settings changed, otherwise @OOO will it be ok to use the machine and just make sure we kill off the game after 6 deaths? Would need honesty - but honesty is the backbone of the MGL anyway.

Yes that would be fine ... everyone should enjoy their gaming!

I haven't played this game for ages but I do like this type of game.

This is the best I could do after a few attempts, just can't get past those boulders :(

 

79,940 is a great score with just a few games ... you may have to jump the tri-boulders?

I know exactly how frustrating those rolling rocks can be. I lost 3 lives at that point on my submission. Made it past on my last life. Everything from there was a bonus :D

Another fine classic. The "3D" scrolling effect was pretty new for video games when this came out.

I remember it was about 2 machines over from Defender and Robotron in the same row.

 

 

This game is one of my first memories of continued game play with additional coinage.

Got a sneak preview of how to get past those stupid boulders on Saturday at NW courtesy of @Barra. Seeing and then repeating is a completely different thing with me on lots of games, might fire it up and give it a shot. I'm sure when the tips start coming from the better guys on this game, a lot of you (me too hopefully) will get past that stage which means you won't ever score more than around 75k max.
