Yes... YES! I finally got the Kamikaze badge! When you play Survival, ALWAYS use the last ship! In the first small bit of it (where there are little to no bullets), try to get as much gold as you can. Then use that money to max out the wave weapon and electric wingmen, as well as buy courtesy ship, kamikaze, and commander. Then just focus on dodging and let your wingmen do all the work. ;)

For the scrape lasers for 30 seconds achievement: Play on Level 2 and turn off wingmen. When you see a big horizontal enemy come down the screen half way then it stops, don't kill it. It will start shooting laser beams straight out all over the screen like a star, then it starts to rotate. You have to stay close to the lasers (scrape them). There's lots of these enemies on Level 2 and you will get the achievement.

Why do the things I'm trying to pick up and the things I'm trying to dodge both have to look like colored circles? Arrgh!

Regarding Blizzards top comment, do NOT get electric wingmen for the survival segment. Those wingmen don't do stuff all, even at max. Get laser wingmen and save yourself the trouble.

Ran into an interesting glitch. For some reason I stopped moving along with the background, but the enemy waves already out kept coming. I kept shooting and every ship I killed just froze in front of me. I ended up with a line of ships in front of me and kept shooting them for multiplier and score. Right now my multiplier is about 25,000 and keeps increasing. The score goes up to about 2.2 billion, then decreases by the amount it should increase back to zero, then back up, in a never ending cycle. I can pause, but unpausing just goes back to the glitch. Anyway, entertaining, but I'm gonna restart...

... in other news, a ship has been sighted flying over seethrough bay. Do not make contact, he has been known to destroy innocent aviators aircraft and even ships at least 5 times his size.

@moonlightaffairs the blue bar right next to your life bar is the "Tension Bar". it fills when your ship is directly next to flying bullets without getting hit. whenever its filled to the top, your multiplier gets 1 higher and the bar empties. also this bar can be used with the "Adaptive Weapon" Card which makes it make your weapons stronger when its full.
hope i could help.

I'm not sure if my computer is that much of a potato, but I can't play this game without tons of lag, even on the lowest settings. Oddly enough, Frantic 3 doesn't lag for me, but this version does. Not sure if it's just me, but just in case it isn't, I figured I'd comment.

Im finding a strange FPS drop. when you click off the game and onto it. the frames return to what the game says, but for some reason the longer i sit on the game the more frames I lose even though I allegidly have 30.

This is the game where you are busy looking at yourself rather than enemies because you have to avoid bullets flowing all over the screen.

If you haven't got Kamikaze yet, here are the top 3 comments, fused into 1 big tutorial. First, collect up to 55k. 55k should get you everything you need, but if you dont have that, for example 45k, just dont buy Commander and Kamikaze. Max out Shuriken and Laser because theyre default on the Fast Ship (last ship, definitely needed here). While avoiding, your wingmen will get you points and that way you will get the badge.

A tip for getting the Feat Frantic Badge, or anything in the game at all really: You can change the background to black, and there are options to make the enemy bullets more visible in the options menu. It makes it much much easier to see and avoid the bullets with a black background. Plus it's a lot less harsh on your eyes. And yea, I want a Frantic 3 also but Polymerrrabbit seems to have vanished. His blog hasn't been updated in about 3 years now.

To get combos you need to kill enemies in quick succession. Easiest way to get the 70-combo feat is to do the third episode on about medium, and max out electric aura wingmen. On the last level there's a sequence where enemies enter and leave to make two square shapes worth of ships. When that happens, lodge yourself just left of the bottom middle, in the rightmost corner of the left box. Your wingmen will tear through most of them. Then use your special attack to devastate everything that's left all at once. Enemies killed by specials DO count towards combos. Do this and you'll get a 100+ combo without much difficulty.
