skill34, the shoulder weapon only achievement works, although I think you need to not even have a primary weapon (just click the one you have equipped to remove it)

i think muhlakai said it very well. i think the same way he does (I REALLY want to like this game a LOT. ...but I don't. The hangar upgrades are ftw and the controls are great, too. The problem is mostly in the mission structures. I have a hard time not feeling like every side mission is the same thing. "Kill the dots, smash the buildings, go to all of these waypoints." It doesn't matter if you call them intel, power supplies, etc. Civilians are a small and appreciated twist. I love everything about this game except playing it.) 4/5

Stars for side missions are based off of time and kills. (needless to say, for survival, just kills, and for secure, just time, for the rest, both)

What happened to the screen? Before it was feature, the "show all" option still worked, but now it's not showing the entire screen... making this game unplayable.

For side mission medals: Don't get hit and destroy all enemies and buildings, even if it isn't the objective. Use the spider legs for dodgeing, the homing cluster for shoulder, and sometime spammable as the main weapon. I used big laser, but Vulcan may also work.

5/5 Great Game! "Congratulations! You just won the Mountain o' Medals Badge and 30 points!" Yay that was so hard! took a long time but lots of fun. Game had good storyline and good graphics and decent controls although the WASD + SpaceBar hurts your hand after a while of using alot of Shoulder weapons. A tip for Side Missions- Its not about speed usully its just about destoying everything alot of times just go a little out of your way to kill things in say a destory building level and you'll score higher than if you rushed thru it and got it real quick. good luck anyone attempting to get the hard, Its a lot of work but it's really rewarding!

Those of you having difficulty with firing the secondary weapon:
Use the WASD buttons to move, and your left thumb to fire the secondary weapon.

relly good game. main complaint is that its hard to accurately move aim and use shoulders at the same time. Games like this i wish had like 10 buttons i could press for the special (shoulders) where ever its convenient without taking my attention away from moving and aiming

So far, it looks as good as the original, and it's a lot deeper, but, as many have said, the controls are awkward. It seems like they were the same in the original, but the secondary weapon wasn't essential as it seems to be in this one, so we're forced to spend way too much time moving with one hand, aiming with the other, and trying to find a third hand to fire.

The ranking system is a joke! I have tried the last defense side mission 50 times for my last at least bronze medal, and i can't even get that. Everything else is at least a silver and a few bronzes. how did anyone get a bronze on this mission?

to get the shoulder-only medal, you have to have no primary weapon on at all, which is done by clicking on the selected weapon while in the hangar

My only complain is that shoulder weapon button is in a place that makes it dificult to use. It should be at the "end" button, for example, or the game offer a keymap option. 4/5 for that.
