Woohoo! I've soared up to #23 and didn't have to do anything!

Looks like one of the modes is missing from the calculation or at least some of the player's scores, at least, I'm guessing. Can't think why it's doing that, though.

LOL! I was just about to post the correct leaderboard when I saw that it actually still wasn't.

Most bizarre, though, is the last placed entry:

3,303

??????

412,829

84,262,271,400

840

O...K.

On Xbox.com my gamertag was showing as ????? for the last few minutes.  It's like we're in the Twilight Zone or something.

OK, looks like it's back to normal.  Copy and pasting for anybody who wants to see.  I put the top 101 in case OzPatriot checks it.  :)  Good job to everybody, a lot of people have been climbing lately.

EDIT:  I noticed afterwards that Chuck24Enforcer is showing as #73.  Other than that, it seems to take sense.

Yeah, if I can get a Top 100 in King and somehow break my duck with Pacifism and get a crazy score there, I'll be in the Top 30/40 and a half-decent Sequence score would be all I needed for Top 10 but 1 step at a time. Top 50 next!

Yeah, it certainly is. Looks like you need a new Pacifism score, Chris!

Yeah Pacifism's a toughie. I'll be happy with just a top 100 score. Also, it's the only mode where the top 20 isn't made up of mostly regulars. Only guy I recognize is Thor. That's why I consider Pacifism to be too luck-based.

Let's see...six...two...four...and another four...and another two...

GW2 Scores

Woohoo! Up to 64th now, just a good Pacifism score needed to get into the Top 50, then Sequence, I suppose. Then the cycle starts again lol.

A lot of the modes have a fair degree of luck. From playing King, I can tell the major difference between 40 million and 10 million is hill placements. Waves is gate placements, the same could be said for Pacifism to a lesser extent and whether a spawn appears on top of you, Evolved in theory, you could get an easy set of spawns and have no repulsars for quite some time and Deadline, you need the gates and gravity wells to appear at the correct time.

TBH, the only mode that has little to no luck is Sequence because it's the same set of enemies every time, although I suppose periodically you might have a bit of bad luck.

---

My Youtube channel
My Geometry Wars 2 Scores

Waves is pretty luck-based, yeah. I used to think the same about Pacifism until recently, when I figured out a better strategy that helped me avoid getting trapped in the corners - now, I rarely die except by my own fault.

I don't bother with King much but I think if you're able quickly eliminate enemies consistently, luck doesn't play very much of a role... that's not one of my strengths though.

You have to use the gates that are given to you in any given scenario. True, not every game couldbe a 100+ million game, but near enough all games can be over 50-70+ million. Its all about seeing where the "gate path" is forming (and one always does), and setting yourself up in such a way that you can dart through it the second insane mode hits.

Videos are in the pipeline of me playing Waves, just need to sort my camera out :)

I thought that re: King at first but I am able to keep the area clear consistently but it's no good if the next zone is on the other side of the screen.

Pacifism: yeah, I agree, most of the time, I don't get trapped in the corners these days and it is my own fault mostly when I die but sometimes, you do get unlucky when you have to go a certain way and a gate will rotate or there'll be too many enemies spawning on one side of the screen.

In any case, from all the practice I've been putting in, luck isn't as instrumental to success in most of the modes as I originally thought, apart from Waves, sorry, Dog!

Definitely looking forward to the videos, though. Here's hoping we see the first ever 100+ million game on YouTube!

You have to use the gates that are given to you in any given scenario. True, not every game couldbe a 100+ million game, but near enough all games can be over 50-70+ million. Its all about seeing where the "gate path" is forming (and one always does), and setting yourself up in such a way that you can dart through it the second insane mode hits.

Videos are in the pipeline of me playing Waves, just need to sort my camera out :)

even with this you really need to be lucky with hitting the gates w/o hitting an enemy at the same time

i just played waves for a half hour and got 40 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 46 and 48 million , and most of the death is from that sh!t
its really the most annoying thing in waves
if only  the bullet can go through the gates then i would've got the 100+ million long long time ago !



here's the 40's million scores video

I meant that more as on a game-by-game basis. But you're right... since Waves only takes a minute to play, skill evens everything out over the course of many games. There's a reason you don't see me with 100+ million.

BURNOUT 3: TAKEDOWN
Send me a message if you'd like to race...

Things are getting very exciting at the top, Thor1314 is still way out in front but BLACKMACH1NE might be under threat soon if he doesn't beat his Pacifism score quick sharp. FrozenVapor has taken #3, pushing Chuck24Enforcer back into #4, khaled 13 is still gradually making his ascent and is getting closer to a double figure SP.

We also have a new entry in at #6: WAADE, pushing The SilverLord, BroodingTom, SQR Y3 and Chris62442 down a spot.

Spotlight for the up and coming players: PopaKap's new Evolved score moves him up to #14 overall, he can certainly smell the Top 10 now, a fairly bare week for XxX syntax XxX, no new scores for him so he'll want to work on that, DeathbyNinja81 has moved up to #21 with his latest Deadline effort, which puts him past the legendary K4rn4ge from the previous game, JDog053 is definitely making his presence known with his new Pacifism score, finally giving him the 6th Top 1000 he's been looking for and putting him in #37 overall and Arcade Meister made a blistering run up the leaderboards with 3 new high scores, from all the way down in #81 (I think) to #65 as things stand now. He'll want a Top 100 Pacifism score soon so that he can work on Sequence and continue his ascent.

What will next week bring for the Geometry Warriors? Tune in to find out!

P.S. Yeah, I was bored but wth!

That was honestly an amazing Geometry Wars 2 report!  Outstanding commentary!  Who needs to read the newspaper's sports section when you have the GW2 forums?  Things are indeed getting pretty interesting lately, a lot of changes and new scores shaking things up.  Keep up the good work everybody.

Thanks guys! I might make it a weekly thing, then!

In any case, my new Pacifism score has JUST edged me into the Top 50 in #49 overall, only 12 SP in it, though.

I shall make a post re: my Pacifism session in the appropriate thread as usual.
