We have ignition (AKA Official Meteos Topic)

Hahah, it was hilarious to find that other people are experiencing the same problems I'm having with Meteos playing inside your heads. It's crazy, my mind just sets up different situations which I shift blocks up and down to try and produce the best results, for example I'll shift 2 blocks on either side of a single gap and slot one in the middle to produce a 5-line horizontal to blast off. It's starting to get annoying though, whenever I close my eyes it's there, as soon as I woke up this morning I had to reach for the DS to play a few rounds just to rid myself of the inkling to play.
Perhaps we should start a Meteos Addicts Anonymous club! :lol

My copy arrived this afternoon. So far im liking it but i have to get used to it. The last puzzle game i played is Chu Chu rocket. I having some hard times but then there are stages that i clear with ease. I really dig the all the different planets with their own music, sounds and meteos.
I need to play it some more but i like what ive seen

it just turned up for me today. good god it's a sweet, sweet game.
haven't got a single precious metal after an hour or so though, I think I've seen 1, but it was on the bottom and I was to dumb to figure out how to launch it.... figured it now though, what do the metals do?

one thing I don't understand is why sometimes when you make secondary ignitions in a flying stack, the whole stack blasts off again, but other times, just that half of the stack will seperate and take off from the rest of it. I still havent got a single precious metal either. And how do I set off the weapons? They just seem to randomly activate.
Love the amount of stats etc, like someone said, very smash bros feel to it.
EDIT: you people getting 7 seconds on the 100 meteos war, WTF? it takes me about 40 seconds. are you speeding up time the entire round?

The secondary explosions always seen random to me too. That is why I try to drag them down as far as possible. To activate items, just tap them with your stylus. 7 seconds on 100 meteos war is hard but you can get under 10 if you just hold L or R to speed up time and scratch at the screen like crazy. If you get less than 10 seconds, you get 500 of every common Meteos, or something like that. I don't remember exactly, it was a while ago that I did that.catfish said:

I didn't think i could everget 100 meteos in 7 seconds, but just hold R or L the whole time.
Hm, which level is this? I've gotten the top route in the japanese version, the hardest mission to figure out there was the one where you're supposed to do an attack with 75 blocks or more at least once and then win.GaimeGuy said:I still don't understand how you beat the illusionist level in the star trip mission mode. Wtf? There's no mission given, yet I always fail. I can't finish the top route as a result.
No, I mean... a vertical booster when you have a full-width rocket already. You should have a full-width going at around five seconds, then you can usually launch the whole thing by aligning a standard vertical three-blocker. They have a much higher boost stat on that level. Edit: There are no items in the Time Attack modes anyway.Mejilan said:

loving the game, but what does successfully completing a mission do for you?
getting to every end of the star trip multiple path (middle one in star trip) unlocks something.

Do you get the 100 every time, or just the first time? Cuz unlocking has become increasingly difficult now, and honestly, 100 Meteos of a particular common element is but a drop in the barrel.
(I'd still like to accomplish it, however.)
AFAIK, you only get it for the first time. 100 Meteos now is't all that much seeing as how I need more than 1000 of certai Meteos to fuse things, but yeah, it's another accomplishment to add to the list. I wish there was a list though that you could check because there are quite a few in the game.Mejilan said:

It's pretty useful, when you get a big stack of them and its beeping and you're about to lose, just go sort of crazy with the stylus dragging blocks up and down. It works, but it's not like pushing a win button. Doing that it took me about 25 tries to beat the 100 meteos war. it helped for the 1000 meteos war as well (that thing goes crazy at the end). Once you beat the 100 meteos war, you will have learned it pretty much.
I have never used the scratching trick and had not too much trouble in beating 10 seconds in the 100 meteo war and completing the 1000 meteo war.
Like demi, I too have lost a bit of interest in this game, I've been working on Kirby a bit more, it just seems that I'm not unlocking anything, I might get back to the third non-branching form of the star trip mode to see if I can complete the missions.

I was under the impression that it doesn't matter how many meteos you've launched, I thought it was dependant upon how much time you've spent. It's so easy to get ~2:00 when you get 3-4 columns ready to launch and then speed it up until it flashes and then move one meteo to launch the whole thing.GaimeGuy said:

Amount of blocks speeds it up in the 100/1000 ones, time speeds it up in 2/5 minute ones.Fuzzy said:
oh, and btw: Don't go to the illusionist stage. You can't reach True Meteo (that's the actual name of the stage. Not Real Meteo. Sorry, I goofed) from the illusionist levels.
The easiest way to reach True Meteo is by completing the Hot & Chillies mission (launch 50 meteos at once), then by completing the Rare Cultures (Globin, Lastar, or Subordian) and Hevendor Realm (Hevendoor against three computers) stages. There are no missions to complete on Rare Cultures of Hevendor Realm.
alternatively, you can go to True Meteo by beating the Clean Air Club mission, then Rare Cultures, then Hevendor Realm. But Clean Air Club's mission requires launching 75 meteos at once.

The problem lies in that you need to fail that mission in order to see the bottom ending, and losing it is tougher than you think.
In any event, I haven't been able to clear the Hevendor Realm yet in order to reach True Meteos. I just can't kill the CPU off, time always runs out first.
