But they're not being added to my point total having already collected them. Lovely. I guess I have a PM to send or something.

Medal Guide is up. Includes all the keys in order, and the medals organized in a reasonable way rather than just by point value.

I also have the winning combos for The Beast (Part 1) ready in case those ones get approved.

Pro-tip: Turrets are next to useless. They help some times, but by the time enemies are swarming in endlessly they lose their utility.

It's not that hard to Lone Wolf it; Raise your speed first with Health taking almost equal priority. Attack comes in handy during the later stages, when guns do negligible damage. Try and max out your jump stat, though simply raising it til you can reach the ceiling is fine too.

Shotguns are the best weapon, with grenade launchers following. These are great crowd control weapons, whereas machine guns are best used from the ceiling to rain death upon your enemies. The pistol is worthless, but even more so the flame thrower, which has bad range and has a small start-up lag.

End-game, your fist will be your best weapon, able to take out multiple foes and do great damage if you raised your attack high enough. Don't use it exclusively though, it has no range. Use it to move around the stage while jumping.

The zombie portions are remarkably simple as long as your attack is a high enough level. Even without the attack buff, as long as you time your punches, you should be fine. Not even Tricky is a challenge if you take his weapon away.

The hydraulic parts are bizarre. If you have a gun, you want to be on the ceiling, raining death upon your enemies. Being on the ground is just asking for trouble. Still, with high enough health, this game should not be a challenge at all.

A few rooms from the beginning, there will be a room with two diverging paths. take the lower path that has" to checkpoint 2" written near it. It will take you to the middle of the game.

Yeah the first one's are broken. The second appears to have at least 10 and the third at least 5.

Doing a count there and that banglaboy currently has 8 zero point medal games and his friend mikey has 6. Kinda funny how all their positive comments & reviews, fans and collaborators are a load of alts. Its like sending yourself a christmas card

The first screen after the menu has a door with 'To Checkpoint 1' on it. The third screen after the menu has 'To Checkpoint 2' on it. These are just gateways, not the actual checkpoints. If you take either of these doors they will take you to the respective checkpoint positions in the game. I think you to have to have previously reached the checkpoint positions to open those doorways.

A good place to camp for points in "This is Madness 2010". Just knock the grenade chucking guy to the floor and get on the platform above and let him destroy the zombies. In an hour or two you should have enough points to buy out the armory. *Note - you will have to die and choose the menu option to get those points, because the exit door shuts and doesn't open again.

Did anyone else get the medals for The Beast: MDM before they were approved, and have them fail to add themselves to your medal score?

Never mind, I figured it out: your medal points only get updated when you get a new medal. So if you get a medal when it's worth 0 points and then don't do anything, your medal score won't change. But, as soon as you get a medal elsewhere, your points are recalculated and any modified point values will be added to your point total.

This should probably be added to the wiki or something.

It looks like the medal "Back From The Dead" in the game This is Madness 2010 is broken. Medal description says you have to kill 10 zombies in a single session, and I've killed dozens of them and gotten nothing. I also don't look forward to hunting the other "kill x of something" medals in that game.

Also, I broke 60k medal points with that game. Onward and upward!

Yeah I have yet to get any of those either, despite killing tons of zombies, agents and uber agents. (I mostly ignore the henchmen now) I noticed that Edy managed to get one of them, any tips?

I am thinking that the authors idea of a "session" may not sync with logic.

Yeah, I got the henchmen one. Seemed to happen at the appropriate time. Then I reloaded my page, and all the counters got set to zero. theMEXICANTHIEF has the one for killing 50 agents also.

Also also, do you have to leave the room you're in to get the Hoarder medal? Right now I'm camped out as outlined in an earlier post, letting the grenade tossing guy kill a bunch of zombies for me, and I've passed the 500pt mark but not gotten the medal yet. I'll assume that you have to leave the room. Last night I got my guy to that point and then went to bed, and when I came back to my computer today Firefox was closed. So I guess you shouldn't leave it for too long or it won't work any more.

It looks like it costs 3025 to buy out the store from scratch. I need 2365 to buy out what's left, and as the grenade guy does my work for me I'm currently sitting at 560. Let the waiting game begin.

A small correction. You can exit the room, but you need to collect the coins before they disappear - yes, they disappear after awhile.

And after killing over 1000 zombies, and leaving that room, I can also confirm that that medal does not work.

I've sent the author a message saying so, hopefully he'll get to fixing it sooner than later and we can have another working medal.

Also, I'm up to 2560pts in that room now, just waiting until I hit 2700 to give myself a really nice buffer. It's a shame you can't mute the explosions though, as it's preventing me from having music on in the background while I work. Anyone know something I don't know about muting sound effects in that game?

So according to this page, which is the official guide, that secret 100pt medal is for beating the game. I did that, and took the upper exit because that's where the bad guys went, but I didn't get the medal. Does anyone have it? Do I need to play again but take the low road out?

Yeah, I saw the screen with the "new competitor" but I didn't get a medal when I was there. Shooting towards the screen didn't seem to do anything either.

That's what I saw to when I beat it. I wonder if you're supposed to fight him somehow?
