@Stomo444, this doesn't fit a true bullet hell game anyway. Far too few bullets to dodge to be considered one. Thus, a larger hit box on your character makes sense. If there wasn't as much to dodge -and- you had an excessively small hitbox, then it'd be far too easy.

Hate to complain, but this is really too difficult. I mean, bullet hell games will be bullet hell games, that's fine, but when "died at the first level" is the highest rated comment, you have to realise there's something a little wrong with the difficulty level. The worst part is that it's not just a total skill-based game like Touhou (and even that's easier because the guns are actually good), it's got upgrades... but they DO NOTHING. If you're going to have upgrades and/or equipment, make them have a decent effect on the gameplay and each of them be better than the last, please? I found no difference between the first 4 guns, except that the laser was terrible. Most of the difficulty comes not from the "bullet hell" so much as your bullet sucking. Come on, that's just pretty bad design.

@PowerReef An option for it might b better, because if you shot where you aimed the game would be really easy(all things considered). It would be nice, but shooting retro-style add a certain challenge to it, being that even if your not dodging bullets you still have to move around so you can hit your targets.

And another thing is;WAY TO BIG OF A HIT BOX!Not that its like more than outside the plane,but it is every inch of the plane!One thing that lowers down the difficulty of bullet hell games and make them a good challenge is that it has a small hitbox,which you greatly failed at.

1 thing that GREATLY satisfies me about Frantic is that when you kill a boss,its bullet disappear and turn into money.Which is one thing many games have problem in that you can still get killed without the boss on screen

Sure, it starts off a tad tough, but it's a lot of fun when you get into it. Play lv1 a few times for exp, upgrade your ship, etc. and it gets rolling. 4/5. (Auto-aim FTW if you want the gold star on lv1 & 2)

hell fire cannon/homing cluster/light armored cockpit/aerodynamic capacity wings/azote chilling system . ridiculously good game

Making this a pilot instead of that robot thingy was a STUPID idea. This game is STILL good, just mech commando 2 was way better.

Your guns are too weak and your hitbox is far too large. When it's physically impossible to destroy a full third of the enemies because you simply lack the DPS to do so, you're too weak.

@cooolie enemies behind still can get killed my homing missiles and personaly i rather liked it still has problems like low levels and not much stuff and how the first level is harder than the rest but its not to bad

That was disappointing compared to the original mechanical Commando series, Needs Improvement especially that the cross hair is useless and enemies behind you are invincible 3/5

gah died at the first boss and what the hell, the game has this weird slow feeling like it doesn't feel smooth, though it works the same on low/med/ high my pc can handle it.

Wow... This is such a dissapointment. I played mech Commando 2 and thought it was awesome, because it was. The Problem here? Number one: YOU ARENT IN A MECH!!! You're in a plane. Number two. It went from being a game where you ran around the level and could take down the enemies more easily, to being a side scrolling-type game. Number 3: It is WAY TO HARD!!! The enemies on the first mission do too much damage, have way to much health, and even with useing both weapons nonstop, I often couldnt kill enough within the time givin by the scrolling screen. Number 4: Since you only move in one direction, the enemies can end up behind you, shooting at you, and you cant do ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!! 1/5 For Effort.

Level 1 isn't THAT hard, when I first started the game (yesterdya/day before) I beat it 2nd try, how? Easy, change controls lol. The mouse control is really bad, and awkward, I recomend the z/x/arrow keys or any other one

that's a shame so much people is crying if they find any difficulty in a game. this is the main reason most of the new game has zero challenge.
btw it is hard to die at the first level if you don't forget that you have a secondary weapon too....

"Wounded Medal completed a level with less than 10 HP". And that was from level 1... AND only survived because one plane dropped an armor repair.

Well, this explains why they need one person to go and do every single suicidally impossible mission. You'll usually end up dead or with a flaming badly damaged plane when you finish a mission. Also, minibosses need to drop health pickups. Seriously, I ended up fighting the level 2 boss with under 10 health and died while taking down the part of the boss that kept it flying...

Fantastic, a bad copy of Raiden X, only with story and upgrades, how bland, Imma play Raiden, happen to have the arcade machine :P

I do like this game, but it doesn't have the same feel as the origional MC. The origional you walked around and could take your time. Stand alone this game is awesome, but I wouldn't really call it a sequal, more of a spin off.

My life confuses me now I put on the hardcore device after getting pwned by the lvl one boss about 10 time then I somehow won I don't get my life anymore
