You call this advanced gameplay? I call this noobish idiocy at best. Learn to play this game properly. You're not even moderately skilled. Just a bit above typical, which holds most players.
The old school Contras are the best by far. This game definitely looks like a winner. You don't need 3D graphics for a great game, just awesome game play.
You don't even have to mash it really fast. I can do it in a simple button pressing method. Oh, and if you feel you're tired, use the gun-swap trick. It is:
-have pea-shooter on both slots.
-While firing, press L moderately fast (not too fast or you won't fire fast).
It remainded me losts of great things back then. but it still feels fresh and addictive. Oh the old school, I'm still a little bit rusty but I can do it
Damn, they included some nasty surprises, too. I thought that fortress was finished when I saw the core blow up....and then, the whole place came up. That was the WTF moment, alright.
This game will have you cursing in a good way, no doubt.
I hope they continue with the contra series ...hoping 5, 6, and 7 would look just like this....lets give a big around of applause to konami for sticking to the basics.......bravo!!!
yeah they need to do more side scrollers with ps2 graphics or something, then again i would be happy if the never stopped making snes games. also i hooked up the old psone a while back and the graphics were depressingly shitty.
wow, wayforward actually pulled it off and did it great. I was skeptical considering all of their previous games weren't that remarkable (mostly licensed disney and nickelodeon games). but I guess they just needed a good series to work with and they got it.

GeneralChaos98 4 years ago 11
This game is awesome but I'll nitpick and tell you all the bad points:
1) At least one boss is impossible to defeat without a powerup.
2) Gap between screens may deceive about the projectile path.
3) Some projectiles are hard to see because they blend with the background color.
4) Some memorable old bosses left out. Stage 8 final boss of Super C nowhere to be seen. A female face alien boss is a hallmark for most Contra games.

That boss you're thinking of isn't impossible. You can beat him with the peashooter; you just have to mash the button really fast.

I can never get that to work.
Any approximate time between L presses?
omarS54 3 years ago
The time between L presses is too small to notice. Just tap it a bit fast and shoot fast. It always works. This trick originated from Contra 3.
