http://download1336.mediafire.com/aal3wlrct0pg/3svcd6r1pz0t2yd/mslugxv2-PD-muxed.mp4 PD encode here. Direct link in youku: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjYxNDA0NjI0.html I cannot login youtube,sorry Edit:waiting for encoders's HD encode.

Might want to change "Armor's Shit" to "Armor's Shot". What exactly is that anyways?

Shot is the mechine gun. Suggested Screenshot: Frame 63473

Voted yes, impressive throughout and it didn't look like you lost too much time from not abusing death.

Clear Yes vote! I think my most favourite mission was 3. Loved how you let one player stand on the airplane and shoot enemies and the boss of mission 3. I definitely look forward what you will do with Metal Slug 3. Great work X2poet.

Wonderful! This is really impressive optimization and weapon usage. The last battles were especially great, and Boss 3 was cool too. You also didn't overlap the two characters too often, which would've made it more boring. The way you have it currently, it's like the two characters do their platforming together (I think it's funny to think of them jumping hand-in-hnd), but then they split up when it's time to kick ass. Anyway, clear Yes vote. Also, thanks for the downloadable encode!

Ok, I finally watched the entirety of this run and I have quite a lot to say. This is the best Metal Slug TAS I have ever seen in my life as of now. The strategies are all very good & the stages flowed really well. The only Stage where I think it could be improved is the Final Mission since you end up with bombs to spare after defeating the final boss. However, I know that the drops the aliens leave are random, so it probably wouldnt make a difference. I liked that you also didnt mimmic input this time around. The problem I had with the other movie was that most of the input was just merely copied or mirrored input of each player. In this movie, Each player was doing their own thing, and I enjoyed the run a lot more because of that. All in all, Yes Vote, Star Vote & Nomination for Arcade TAS of the year. I cant wait to see your run of Metal Slug 3 when you finish it.

Watched the encode, and yet once again you tore the game to peices. It was pure and absolute carnage. I absolutely loved this run and every frantic, madness inducing second of it. And now that you didn't use any continues, everyone should be happy, I hope. Voting yes.

Explannation: The left 11 bombs.2P get the last L and bomb showing must stand there.If not, the 1p bomb will not appear. If 1p fall down to get that bomb,and 2p must wait 1p jump up,maybe it would be slower. Serious luck manipulation here.2P jump up with the same time for two times of jump,so there is no influence for this. I has completed 4 mission for metal slug 3,but I stopped,because I discovered two reasons I had to redo it: 1.different glitch for fast knife cutting from X,using left and right to cancel attack for 7 frames per damage and saving bombs.X is pressing down for 4 frames,and 3 is holding down,left right for 7 frames a cut. 2.the route selection goes wrong in MISSION1,at first I want to make 2 catagories for this one,but it is not suitable for doing this,because the last stage MISSION5 is too long and almost the same. The tactics of Metal Slug 3 was sure,so my work would be fast. I will accomplish the plannation in a month.

For those that don't know, Metal Slug 2 is like X but X runs on better hardware (reduces lag) and is basically a better version. This is so fun to watch. Does getting Big make the weapons do more damage? Also, I love watching the fat character take out a fork and kill an enemy.

No,big S H R cannot do more damage,it is only has a wide scope.So only the big F has the effect to add damage,but it is not obvious that 2 for 2 frame. L can take 21 damage for 1 bullet,big L 22. The luck manipulation in the last boss,getting big L would be slower than L because I must stop attack and wait for a while that appear big L. So I get small L to get faster and put it in consideration for the luck after this. In mission 2,if not changing to small F,the bullet was not enough to shoot until the boss destroyed.So I get small F for adding 30.

Just out of curiosity, I made a fun-run of Metal Slug 1 a long time ago and found this little trick in that game, I am just wondering if the same is true in the others: While in a Metal Slug tank, if you crouch you lose the ability to shoot your cannon, but GAIN the ability to throw grenades AND have an unlimited amount of them on-screen. Also while throwing the grenades the cannon cool down was also running. So the result was at a distance or at enemies below they would see nothing but a wall of grenades with cannon-shots. For the up-close tank encounters, add the Metal Slug's machine gun. I'm just wondering if the same is possible in the other games. Oh, yes vote.

Yes,it's right in Metal Slug 1,but you cannot control the direction to shoot right when you use this. The others cannot use this. 1 has big difference.Low jump,damage losing,shitty flame shot,so on.

That was a really fun movie to watch. Yes for me.

Forgot to comment. This is much, much, better than the previous submission. There's too much good stuff in this run to go into detail, so I'll just leave it at that. Oh, and Flame Shot rules. Yes vote.

I forgot to list some important data. •Bomb:100 The smoke can do damage too,but not suitable for all Metal Slug games. •Stone:100 This can hit things together,but it has low range •Fire:80 It can do double damage for the plane of MISSION 3,because it can hit airframe and wing together.

Man, this really should have used continues... KIDDING! SERIOUSLY! JUST KIDDING! Finally got around to watching this, amazing work. Great job, x2poet.

This run deserves a star or at least a moon. Throwing a well deserved yes vote to an already accepted movie.
