This has always been bugging me... at the end of a game on Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad, the "Classify" screen is brought up and it gives you a military ranking based on your performance. But the stats that come up are kinda vague. This is what it lists:
Stage Count
Multiplying
19990 Bonus
Destruction
Flash Item
Close Attack
Continue
19990 Bonus, Close Attack, and Continue pretty much speak for themselves.
Now, you would think that Stage Count would refer to the number of stages total that you passed, but this is not so... I've done one-credit finishes on this game where the Stage Count read 9, and other times where it read 10. Especially baffling since there are only 5 "Missions", I don't know where it's getting the other "stages" from.
Multiplying I THINK refers to any enemy killed with x2 or greater... meaning they'd have to be close-range attacks or powered-up shots from a vehicle.
Destruction... stuff that's destroyed in the background? I dunno. This is usually a number above 900... maybe it's the total number of enemies killed.
Flash Item, I truly have no clue. This number can vary from 1 to 8 it seems, and I still don't have the slightest clue what it means. Anybody wanna hazard a guess?
Personal high score: 14,145,770 (Lulu)
