Popular Post FahrenheitFrenzy Posted September 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2020 After a lot of anger and frustration trying to do the 50-opponent Survival, I believe I found an easier way. I only tested it in Survival 50 (which was the only one I couldn't do legit), but it worked, so it should work for 20, 35 and 10 Cruel as well. What you want to do is turn on online search BEFORE loading Survival. The game allows you to do Survival whilst searching for online battles, so if you beat opponents in Survival and an online battle shows up, you can fight the battle and go back to the same point you left off in Survival afterwards. Now here's the part that makes this useful: Whenever you're about to die and get your streak ruined, you can pause the game without interrupting your online search. Keep it paused until it puts you against someone online, fight'em and go back to the same opponent that almost beat you. You now have another chance to beat him/her and keep your streak going. You can do this everytime you feel the need to, as long as you don't cancel your online search during the process. It takes more time because you can't turn down any online fights when they appear, but it's far less frustrating than fighting all your way through 49 enemies and then losing to a shadow Geiger and his cheap ass 3-damage EX Flash Gear to Drop Gear combo. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hakoom Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 my application keeps crashing at 8~9 cruel wins and 17~18 normal wins... even without this trick this game is just a piece of trash every patch the game becomes shitier and shitier with frame drops ai becoming even stronger and game crashing every few battles.. i cant even reach high enough to continue without the game crashing every single time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FahrenheitFrenzy Posted September 26, 2020 Author Share Posted September 26, 2020 Yeah, unfortunately game crashes will disrupt your progress. As much as I adore this game, I can't defend it in certain aspects such as crashing frequency and the cheating AI on Survival. However, with the latest patch, it seems the game isn't crashing as much as it used to (at least for me lol). Have you tried downloading the latest version?

Hakoom Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 i have the latest version and the game is worst.. heavy lag between character transitions in survival.. the balance is so shit in this game i dont know what was the dev thinking when he put survival specialy that character with glasses gieger or whatever hes called.. the more you advance in survival the more hp the enemy has wtf? by the time i got to 40 its like playing CRUEL mode all over again characters with 20hp bars and crazy movements. a balanced fighting game would be starting on easy for 50 survivors and slowly getting harder as you climb up with the SAME HP for everyone and not more per battle.. this game you start 50 survivor directly on insane dificulty and the ai gets more hp per battle... iam glad you found this method and iam trying to finish up now before they patch it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because The Survival Mode trophies are the pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because The Survival Mode trophies are the pain. If they ever patch the online search method, I agree with a 10/10. But with this method, I think it can be around 5 or 6/10. The main problem I see with Survival is that for every shadow boss you defeat, regular fighters and subsequent shadow bosses gain a Boss Rush power-up, so by the time you reach your 16th opponent, for instance, it can be a Valerie that can zig zag her Cross Stroke across the screen, cancel Flying Rainbow into itself multiple times and reflect projectiles with her paintbrush, now imagine that with your 48th opponent, which has like 9 power-ups. I would suggest removing all this stuff and leaving it only for Cruel Survivor, which makes more sense to me. Alternatively, they could leave the power-ups only for the shadow bosses to make them stand out more, they already have more life than regular fighters, but I feel like there's no point for shadow bosses to even exist if the regular fighters are going to be as dangerous. I mean, a regular Geiger towards the end of my survival run scares me much more than a shadow Argagarg. Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterglemm Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 has this been patched? also how doable is the game? some people did it in months and others in days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference you see on the times the players took to platinum may be due to the fact that the core pack is needed for survival and arcade trophies, and some players took a while to earn the pack (I, for instance, took a month).

LaurentiGustavo Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Hi guys, just got the 35 survivor trophy with this strategy, thanks! Did not see else where, but I went 2 times in online matches while fighting the same cpu (e.g was fighting Lum, then got one casual match, return to the survivor run against Lum, then going a second time to online match), the third time against Lum my health was fully recovered. This ever happened with you guys? Will try to post a video. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I can confirm this still works i just beat the 50 opponents yesterday was very annoying i really recommend to turn off cross-play because I got disconnected so many times and had no disconnect issue once i turned off cross-play . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldspectre Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Thanks for the advice. This has to be the cheapest survival mode I've ever played in a fighting game. Rook in particular with his looping grabs squandered my efforts multiple times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
