Anyone else struggling with this?

I managed just over 600,000 last night but then keep getting a beating!

Give it time. Someone will have a solution or an easier way of getting the achievement. I killed Jet on Hardcore and now I'm sitting at 175/200. I might try it but saving every few seconds and reloading if I didn't kill a group of bad guys a certain way will just take an extremely long time.

I'm on level seven with about 715,000. Some of the parts in this level are sooo frustrating. The combat system is really starting to **** me off, the only way too defeat four guys with a bunch of health is too spam the uppercut (i'm using axel) and that hardly works and while doing that my thumb cramps up. Then i have to take a twenty minute break. I figure i'll get this achievement after a few more tries, i only have to finish level seven.

Oh man i didnt even know u could save it i played it on hardcore 1 go and had top but lost it early this morning.

Saving it would not help me tbh cos megadrive version had no such save option back then, i would rather play the game flawless from start to finish.

Hey do you have any tips you're willing to share? I can't get past the elevator part in stage 7, i start at that part with five lives but i always manage to get beaten to a pulp. I'm using axle, i can't figure out what would be effective against the two guys with jetpacs at the beginning the guys with big muscles and the boxer guys that spawn with the biker guys.

I tried it once last night. Game Over just before stage 6 end bosses. Score was about 590 000....

It's an easy ehough achievement. Use Save States. Save at the start or each area/ boss. If you do badly then reload. Try to finish each level with at least 3 lives remaining. For the tougher bosses you may want to save any time you get a few hits in wihout taking damage. You should unlock it by the start of level 8.

Good advice Salad lad!

I have a game saved on level 4 & I have 6 or 7 lives so I'll try that when I get outta work.

Will probably be one of those ones you get first time after you've had a bit of a break

Sure i don't mind trying to help but stage 6 , 7 , 8 , are all very hard indeed.

7. elevator - example with blaze wave 1

u can do jab standing jab standing jab with the 1st 4 enemys that come out then another 3 after that.

then 2 jetpacs come out best option for you is do not line them up in the bottom right corner cos they will grab u over and over again and u cannot escape.

If u have to use your standing special to get rid of one of the enemys then line the last jet pac up.


Wave 2 - Karate and ninja's

This is very important when the lift goes up there is a short shadow gonna appear line it up and move underneath it and throw the 1st enemy backwards cos at that time 4 other enemy's will appear and will land on all of them + there will be a sword spare on the floor and u can line them up easy for the kills.


Wave 3 - Kickboxers & Hellgates

This is pretty tough to deal with but your best option is to grab the 1st 3 enemy's and throw them backwards towards the top left corner of the screen.

6-8 seconds after that i remember that 3 guys will dash bombs into the bottom left corner so lure them to that point. if not skilled u might lose a life or 2 or 4.


Good luck guys.

i'm sure alot of people will be trying this with Axel since hes the best overall character in the game...but i wanna do this with Blaze ^_^..so far i made it up to Level 4 with 400,000 something points

In the lift with the boxer and muscle dude, i found that i could jump kick them, they fell against the side wall, while they were down i walked in the opposite direction. rinse and repeat.  i could kill them without taking a single hit.

At least it's on Hardest or whatever and aint on Mania. Anyone remember Mania? Fighting 4 jet guys at once.

Can this and the Kill jet achievement be done in co-op or is it single player only for these two?

"Save me a bullet. Go towards the light."

I guess it should be ok in co-op too, but I cant imagine anyone getting 800 000 pts in a co-op game... well maybe if one player picks all the money sacks and gold bars...

Sometimes I ask myself whether or not I should bother with the 800K achievement as every time I attempt Hardcore mode I always make it up to the Ultimate Warrior clone before I have to continue; that's about 400,000 points there. I usually just hit Game Over from there.

That Hero (finish the game without continuing) achievement for Double Dragon was a walk in the park by comparison.

Mania is insane, starting with one life i can make it to the spook park with max, not bad i dont think. As for the 800k, i get battered on the lift too, and overall i personally think max rules everyone :) i got 715,000 points on hardcore and then continued and it logged my crappy 13,000 points as a high score, dumb *** game of ***.

"In the safety of our homes, a perfect forever"

Finally got this achievement on Saturday.

All I will say is it takes a lot of patience (& a lot of saving). I struggled with the lift part leading to the ultimate warrior clone but found sliding along the floor (with max) worked pretty well. I beat that boss at the end of the level & still had 6 lives so that give me the belief to carry on.

Good luck all (my thumb is still hurting as i'm typing this now)!!!!

i'm stuck on the elevator lift on Stage 7 with Blaze...with 720 thousand somethin points  -___-...its really irritating

Seeing as there's already a topic for hardcore, anyone got any tips on how to beat the wrestler guy on stage 4, when there are 2 jet pac's fighting at the same time on stage 5 and the baby boxer guy at the end of stage 5, cos, as you can imagine, I keep getting my lives raped by those bastards on hardcore. I'm at the beginning of Stage 5 with 3 lives as Axel btw.

Different question, does Max get more points for his attacks in general?

I beat the wrestler guy by dodging his punches then using the slide attack alot.

I'd say if you are at the start of stage 5 with 3 lives then to start again as I got there with 7 lives and you end up taking a right old beating in stage 6. Remembering that you need to get past stage 7 for your points to add up and unlock the achievement.

The only other tips I can give you is to remember to pick up the extra lives in the early levels, keep saving when you go long periods without getting hit and finally apparently you get more points for killing with weapons. My mate was watching as I was playing the game & said the points were going up more when I was using weapons so if you get a pipe/sword, start swinging away!!!

Oh yeah, I played the game as Max although i've heard it's easier with Axel.

Good luck M8

Cheers for that, I actually went ahead and started again anyway with Max and so far I've saved just before you fight the two fat bastards in the baseball stadium, Stage 4 with 6 lives.

One question though. When you mean the extra lives, do you mean just via points and the 1UP on the ship in Stage 3, or are there more secret 1UP's scattered around levels that I don't know of like the secret 1UP in the last bit of Stage 3?

Sounds like you're doing a bit better.

As for the extra lives, there's one on stage 1 at the very start of the game. Just go to the bottom left of the screen and hit the action button. I think the next one is on stage 2, just as you come back outside again where all the bikes come at you, this time head up to the top left part of the screen and there should be another one.

I have heard that there is an extra life on stage 3 (by the blanka rip-off) but I never picked that one up. Coulda done with it too as I took on the 3 robots at the end of stage 6 with my health bar so low that I couldn't afford to be hit once.

Good luck anyway - my final tip is to try & not get too frustrated with it!  lol

I got all the other achievements to this game pretty easily, but this one's going to take some work!

I wonder if Seriously 3.0 will require 1 million kills???

Anyone else know of any secret 1UP's?

I did forget the 1UP in level 7 when writing it, but it's not really secret, you'd see it after breaking open a canister

 

i had to restart it i started with axel for the 4th time and now i'm stage 5 with 9 lives so hope i can do it this time.

I have a save right before the 3 robots at the end of level 7. The game actually tallied my score of 780,000 on the hardcore leaderboards when i did this, so I know I was on hardcore. I died at the robots and did not ecipse 800,000. i loaded the save, got 800,000 before the pts at the end of the stage tallied, but the achievement didn't unlock. I let myself die and checked the leaderboards. My score had not changed on Hardcore, but I went to the normal boards and, lo and behold, there was my score! The game posted it to the wrong leaderboard. I played again, got higher score than before and it did the same thing! Has anyone else had this happen. I have replayed that friggin' boss fight 7x. Each time getting 800,000 before the end of the stage and it will not unlock or post my score to the hardcore leaderboard. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just so you know...when you start a new game that this is what it looks like:

GAME SETTINGS: HARDCORE
LIVES: 1
DIFFICULTY: HARDEST

I just got it on that level but it was achieved when the final score was totaled up after the level ended. So that's not really the problem, if you have another saved slot a little before them try loading it up and playing through those parts again. If not, then all I can say is keep trying if you really know you didn't change the GAME SETTINGS to custom and put it on HARDEST difficulty.
