[@Kurayamiblack]

Bill: "I'm glad we're on the same team Fox" That hit REEEEAL different after this performance 😅

fox is a machine

This quote is real I always had the Take Care Fox, but if all Units survive this one appears and it really is hard if You don't want to destroy anyone by mistake

"Fox you ma-....you've become quite a pi-enemy mother ship approaching!"

[@loritaylor1602]

How did that happen? Get the mothership to arrive when you start the mission?

[@Lukasaske]

Bill 'The hatches are open' Grey

[@wittyshenanigans1302]

Never even shot down a friendly that's amazing

[@therower1941]

Simply incredible

[@Rmuda]

So I'm guessing the new High Score route is Corneria - Meteo - Katina - Solar - Macbeth - Area 6 - Venom 2, and that Solar will feature the max score trick on the boss fight? Incredible to see Katina optimised to the point of being the correct path.

[@PinkP0nyPr0ducti0n5]

This was my to-go route back in the day when I was doing highscore runs on my own, just because I liked Meteo more than Sector Y.

Lore-accurate Star Fox be like:

[@houraisheperd9721]

That’s incredible. Holy hell.

[@GreyWolfLeaderTW]

Oh cool! I didn't know you could destroy the hatches on the mothership with bombs before it arrives over the base. That's a cool detail.

[@minebloxavplayz]

Bill: the hatches are open! Fox: *dies* 1:07

[@Whitesnake273]

Guys I think the Sector Y and Aquas route with Macbeth is no longer viable, the 5K barrier has been broken

[@krohn7master]

lol does this mean we’re going back to the old route for highscores again? Who would have thought we’d come full circle in 2023?

[@Whitesnake273]

Old route but with Solar

[@hyperbitcoinizationpod]

wow, the bomb the mother ship and die trick unbelievable

[@Phoenixaffinity105]

Modified version of the mother ship fast kill strat used in Any% speedruns, it’s pretty funny that they treat the cutscene progress as a reset.

[@isodoubIet]

What was the point of that? just to get the Hit +5s on them a second time?

[@tyronea8509]

What is this dark magic

[@joeshittheragman6252]

Gonna be a big bill to pay at the end of that run

[@Watonfracasao654]

Una pregunta, ¿ como ases esa especie de barrel roll sobre tu propio eje en el que pones la nave de cabesa ?

[@Snxffy]

How lucky that Star Fox arrived only 5 seconds prior to the mothership. Would´ve been deadly for Katina. Great work as always!

[@loritaylor1602]

How did that happen?

[@PinkP0nyPr0ducti0n5]

@@loritaylor1602 I suspect because the team members aren't there to have dialogues, so it just skips to the next event in the list, which is the motehrship approaching. Could be wrong though.

[@HobkinBoi]

Did you know that the hatches are open?

[@tjpat209]

I was today years old when I found out that you can destroy the hatches while they're not even out 🤯 All of these years later and I'm still learning things I didn't know.

[@Rócherz]

It was just now for me. Did you know you can trigger Slippy to ask “How’s the Arwing doing, Fox?” in this stage?

[@tjpat209]

@@Rócherz Don't think I've heard that one either, but there is one line I triggered once ever with Slippy where he said "Let's take it to em, Fox!" on this stage too.

[@SpiritualJD12887]

You: fires charged shots in a frenzy... Hits nothing but enemies. Me: carefully locks on EVERY enemy to make sure I don't hit friendly ships. Friendly ship flies in front of my blast JUST as I fire. Or even better am doing PERFECT. Peppy: Enemy down... Wait that was one of ours." Me: ****************!!!!!

[@Lumakid100]

Yes. Just yes. So much pain outlined clearly in one comment.

[@Fullkornen]

Star Fox is his name, not his team.

[@bradleynoble8101]

So... When are you going to get that new high score run finished?

[@westinbrail8326]

unknown. Haven't really worked on it in a couple months

[@Gamefreakster27]

lol Star Fox really be milking that general pepper contract/pay out for all of its worth eh? gonna bankrupt corneria at this point 😂

[@theterrorofdimensions1326]

In Fox's defense, Andross is the one who chose to deploy that many enemies into the same area as the Star Fox team in the first place.

[@HiraethVagabond]

That bill is for the taxpayers to worry about

[@Garryl367]

The hatch opening timing is based on the number of surviving enemy fighters, right? Would some obscure and absurd RNG manipulation to get the allied ships to shoot down the enemy fighters faster or slower theoretically affect anything?

[@westinbrail8326]

Bill's squad doesn't shoot down any enemies afaik. Only Bill himself can do so. It's very possible for me to kill enemies much faster anyways, but there has to be a balance between killing enemies quick and getting the most points out of them.

[@isaacgrijalva9677]

Yes they can but they take a long time to do so and our colleagues steal the kill from them.

[@AltereggoLol1]

I never knew this battle was totally scripted so a TAS was possible

[@maurosobue2425]

Yes!

[@edwinmaki6817]

I almost never see bombs being used in TAS or even a live run. I know it's because you don't get the same hit combo score, but I'm definitely no professional and would like to see people make videos exploring the most efficient bomb usage. Even though it's kinda pointless.... it would certainly raise my high score, lol

[@tStevester83]

YOOOOOOO
