classicgamer_27330 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Barnstorming (1982) (Activision)_8.png I've got this exact score two more times, After missing the bronze medal by 1 point last HSC, I might be knocked out of this by .12 seconds unless the humble, strict but fair mod decides to let more people advance in this having a hard time improving on that, but no I'm not giving up on .12 seconds I've got this exact score two more times, After missing the bronze medal by 1 point last HSC, I might be knocked out of this by .12 seconds unless the humble, strict but fair mod decides to let more people advance in this having a hard time improving on that, but no I'm not giving up on .12 seconds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vocelli Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 Did a 54.10 seconds to start this Easter Sunday. I will post a pic when I am #1 or 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vocelli Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 Vocelli: 53.05 - I guess the only way to get faster is to not move as much when I go up or down. That will require lots of this... reset.reset.reset.reset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicgamer_27330 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I improved by 4 1/100ths of a second Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redmiller Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Well I know its not good enough to advance, but wanted to make sure and get a score posted. Still decent score 53:85 Kids these days dont know how easy they have games, after 30 mins of this, my left thumb and palm were knumb from holding the button down.

DrMooCowz Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Actual thoughts/scenario: Me: (looks at AtariAge) Ah, man, my Barnstorming time has been defeated and out of the top 2. I got a little time this morning to see if I can beat it. (gets the Atari ready to play) Me: Hmmm, I never checked my difficulty switches. I'm sure they're fine, but better double check... crap, they're on A/B! My original time was invalid anyway! Maybe they don't make any difference? (after several attempts on B/B, I went through a barn where I was sure I would've normally crashed) Me: Oh... So all this time I was making it harder than it needs to be! 52.77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariWarlord Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Barnstorming Game 3: 56:16. I am not good at this game and audibly groaned when it was announced as the paper medal game, but I had to at least put something up on the board.

classicgamer_27330 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 yeah I don't see how to get faster than 52.77 I didn't make any mistakes and no slow downs, A perfect run or at least I thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrMooCowz Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Just for full disclosure (even though currently tied for 2nd), I'll still try to improve my time over the weekend. I just have this feeling someone is going is going to beat the time and don't want to get left behind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 yeah I don't see how to get faster than 52.77 I didn't make any mistakes and no slow downs, A perfect run or at least I thought You can get faster times by limiting your up/down movements. The plane actually slows down (although you can't see it) the more you move it. So, try to fly through the barns closer to the roof, not all the way down to the ground.

Deteacher Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Here's a video of a 52.70 run. I made 2 unnecessary corrections, which slowed me down. Hopefully this helps. Jump to 2:23 if you want to skip over my failed attempts. And sorry for the choppy video...I'm still learning how to use Atube Catcher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1xN5H6BDdU&feature=youtu.be Hope this helps.
