Platinumd this 2 days ago. So satisfying, loved the trophies from this game. Required a challenging experience.

the save all humans one is actually nothing special, just play on Easy and be wary of the two special humans each level tied to multiplier or specific order of shooting.
i would say this game has a very easy platinum once you get a handle on a single ship. You can rack up most of the trophies by playing on Easy.

Save all humans was actually one of the first ones I got. I was worried it would have been on a single play through, but thankfully it wasn't. My only advice is if you are working on save all humans, ignore you score and multiplier. Doing both at the same time rough. You need some, but don't try to get a 10-15x multi while trying to save everyone.

I just cannot beat the game in one go.
Mefitis just has too much crap going on... Or Maybe I should just use Ferox instead of weak ass nemesis.
The thing that really gets me is like I will boost to kill a bunch of enemies and a projectile emitter will spawn like RIGHT ON TOP of me, immediately after my boost is done... Gets me everytime

Don't expend all of your boost, use it in short bursts. It recharges so quick on Nemesis you're hardly ever without it.

I haven't dug much into this game as much as I'd like because of some other launch titles but I want to start.
Are there any videos explaining how to get the highest scores/multipliers? Also really not sure how to save the humans. I see how to pick them up when they are out of those boxes and where to bring them but how and when do they become "available" to save?
Perhaps I should read the manual. =D

Kill the keepers formation, get the humans (follow the shooting star), bring them to one of the two trail of arrows.
Basically, pick the first ship, normal level, and survive. You'l figure out the rest as you go. No need for the manual.
- If you're after high scores, then Phobos is really the only option (due to its overdrive).
- Best strategy for high scores is to keep your multiplier going. At all costs. Once you get the timing down, if you feel it's about to expire, fire off a bomb to keep it going (this is literally the ONLY thing I use bombs for; I always save them to get out of a bad situation). Also, use your overdrive on large groups of enemies.
Two myths that keep floating around: 1) You should restart immediately if you lose a human and/or 2) you should restart immediately if you lose your multiplier.
For maximum points, you should save humans in groups rather than one at a time (you get a points bonus for saving them in quick succession, as well as a brief weapon bonus).
I placed in the top 30 (144 million points) on the veteran leaderboards losing multiple humans and my multiplier more than once. If you start off level 1 bad...sure, restart. But if you have a good run going, then just push through (even if you lose a human or the multiplier). You may surprise yourself.
If you do happen to lose your multiplier along the way, the end boss of level 3 is a great way to build it back up. Just take your time and shoot every single voxel until he no longer spits them out.

Ugh, that sounds miserable. It's might be true for GOTTA BE #1 runs by the fanatical, but for everyone else it doesn't make a lot of sense.
Yeah if you want top 5 or so, then it's probably true. But I'm pretty convinced a top-10 score is attainable even with a few mistakes.
Maybe I just stink at it, but this game is pretty tough! I like the challenge though based on how easy so many games have been last gen.
Anyway, I'm sure this was answered in the thread already so I apologize ahead of time: I randomly get the "human lost" message when I don't even see an indicator showing that they're available for me to pick up. What gives?!

It is because you don't have a high enough combo multiplier. Certain humans require you to have a high enough multiplier. Make sure to keep your combo going. If it is about to run out and no enemies are around use boost quickly to get close to some or use a bomb
Other reasons humans might be dying is that you didn't kill the required enemies in the proper order and sometimes if you have released a human you might shoot it and have it fall off the map or in to water and kill it
Ahh gotcha. Makes sense. Wasn't aware of the killing enemies in the right order thing though. How do you know the proper order?

The green highlight. When you hear keepers detected be careful where you shoot because it's easy to hit the wrong one by accident. You'll see a group come up and the one you are supposed to kill first will be that bright green color or have a target looking thing around it. Kill that one first the next one gets highlighted. Sometimes they'll be lined up and you can just boost through them.
Awesome. Thanks for the info, man

I just set an 86 million personal best so I feel pretty good right now. I would feel better if I hadn't crashed and burned because this score could have been well over 100 million.

If you're shooting a bunch of enemies and can't quite make it to the green line, you can throw the human to it.
You can also use boost+throw and you will launch the human way farther.
Been playing this game sporadically the past month, helping my friend get the platinum (got it last weekend!) because he's ass at the game. Thought I would have problem with the 1cc trophy but after playing on Master it was kinda easy.
My best records are 120mil on rookie and 71mil on master. Not that good, but I haven't really played all that much so I'm pretty content!
Tried playing Phobos a bit but that didn't go too well. I'm too reliant on Nemesis' boost and homing shots. It'll have to wait until I get the game myself.
Amazing game. Can't remember last I had this much fun with a game.
Unlocking Hero mode this weekend. I can feel it.

If you want to get really good, you can throw all the humans underneath the rescue beam and let them sit there throughout the whole level. Then at the end, just rescue them all at the same time to get a massive score.
Just got the plat, two minutes ago!
Was surprised that the jump up to master wasn't steeper. I suppose they want to ease you into the idea of revenge bullets, since they are a hell of a thing and I can imagine when things get more hectic they become impossible to deal with.
I haven't read too much of this thread, so I have two questions:
Is the consensus that Nemesis is garbage, and Phobos the best? Because that's what I've found. And,
On the final boss, how do you stay ahead of the tentacles as phobos? Weave in and out of them? There's no outrunning them, boost or not.

as others have said, just tap boost lightly to boost out of a hairy situation and it will recharge very fast on Nemesis. I also preferred Nemesis on my harder difficulties as then you dont need to pay attention to where you are shooting, just moving the ship!
yeah its still easy compared to Hero difficulty
and the bosses have more changes to them so thats refreshing.Trophy Guides are usually best for concise info on how to deal with most challenges.

I haven't played it on master yet, but a quick tap of boost was enough to keep me out in front on veteran.

Often there will be room between the tentacles to move to, but the space is tight. When there's no room a short boost away followed by some more tentacle dodging should give enough time for your boost to recharge.

I got the platinum for this earlier in the week, only my second one and the only 100% game I have bothered with. They handled trophies way better than most games which want you to find every crappy item or something completely uninteresting involving grind.
Thanks to random coop dude for the 1CC trophy, got to the final boss alone after he died early with one life left and 'knew' I was going to fuck up as I always did against that boss but somehow pulled it off. Jumped around like an idiot.

the worst platinums are the ones that require you to finish at extra hard difficulty, which is only unlocked after you already beat the game.
I don't mind the difficulty, but there are very few games i want to play through twice.

My first platinum get!! I actually made it a lot harder for myself for 1CC, since I read "don't lose ANY lives" instead of the "ALL".
Glad I got a PS4 earlier rather than later, there isn't all that much I plan on picking up in the future, although I know I would have picked one up before any kind of price drop anyway, so why not now?
And this game is straight up ace, I don't even want to play anything else.

Exactly my logic behind my purchase.
Got to read the manual if I want to advance in experienced...I still don't know what ''Keepers detected'' means and what I should do about it lol...man I love the voice coming from the controller in this game...
I love when the voice goes ''Armageddon'' ...

Yes. Also the sound effect when you free a human without needing to kill keepers.
Shooting "The Keepers" is how you release the Humans.
Pick up and Save the Humans to get Shield, Extra Life, Extra Bomb, Upgraded Overdrive, Points.
The Keepers are highlighted in Green. Once you kill them, you will see a trailblazer shoot off to where the Human is released.
Hope that helps.
