Got my slug in Metal Slug X without a vulcan cannon!

I just rememebered this, it happened about a month ago. On the mission 3 boss on the train, I was in the slug flyer and I only had one more hit left to take. The girl came along the bottom, and as anyone familiar with the game knows, she drops you gas. Too eager to get the gas, I collected it at the same time I took another hit! My vulcan fell off, and then my bar recharged from the gas. I was vulcanless! I had to just use the slug attack on him and give up on my level end bonus. Pretty funny that that can happen, though.

whoa, that's crazy...

Hrm...Seems like Slug X has alot of glitches ...

Probably because its a Frankenstein monster made from slug 1 and slug 2

use missles.

wow i've never seen that happen. were you able to beat the big crushinator boss of that level with the slug flyer. or did he shoot those firey things that fly up to you and blow up on you.

Well basically it's not really a glitch. When you take the final hit, your slug's vulcan falls off and then a second later it makes you get out. If you get gas at that moment, you just lose the vulcan.

I don't remember if I was able to beat him without dieing. Now when I do it I get to the 5th mission on one life, this was a while back.
