Geometry Wars Tips


Recommended Posts

My high score is stuck at 192K and I want to get the 250,000 achievement. Does anyone have any tips, this counter-clockwise and plow your way through crap isn't working for me :(.

Oh, and my 360 crashed for the first time when I was playing Geometry Wars, I pressed New Game, Evolved real quick and it froze.

Don't Die :D. It took me months to get all the achievements for that game, but even now, I can go months and not play it and still average over a million. Basically, watch the videos posted online of people who get high scores and pay attention to their techniques. It is hard to type exactly how to live, but those videos demonstrate it nicely.

What videos? And one I just watching on YouTube he shoots forward and moves but the thing is, no matter what I do, if I do that something gets me from the side..

My high score is 1.9 million something, but I can't get the 500,000 + 1mil survived achievements. I can't get the 9 lives and bombs either. Dammit they're hard!

The basic tip is to go around in circles but don't stick to the edge. Snakes or anything might pop up and kill you easily. And I have no clue why you're dying from the sides.

It takes practice, and patience. :D

I'm interested in the topic too. If someone can share some little quick tips I'll be very grateful. :)

The only thing I can say helps in surviving is always clearing what is infront of you..

You'll notice that they never catch up to your from behind.. So just keep plowing forward..

Defo not true, the ones from "wells" if they explode will do and everything else unless you keep going in SMALL circles which isn't possible (can't shoot infront and behind).

Yeah the blue circles and the red shielded thingies are the only things that can catch up, but if you keep the blue circles from bouncing off the walls so much (causes them to go faster), it's easy to deal with. As about the red things, keep shooting at their shields (for more experienced people) or make a nice turn so that you can hit them from the side when they're "stunned".

I believe it was this video that first taught me exactly what to do (posted December 14, 2005)

More vids there. Tomorrow when I have more time, I will try to give some pointers, but I haven't played the game in a few months. I watched my brother play on christmas and he sucked, heh.

I do a lot of circular motions...going clock wise. I always keep shooting and rarely use bombs. I easily hit over 300k, 500k is rare, but I have a 1 million achievement which I lucked out on.

i love this game!

pretty much never stop moving or shooting

and when your shooting try to hit something :)

if your get in trouble just go straight ahead firing directly ahead of you so anything in your way gets killed

or try an FAQ
