Aphrodite1 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 im doing this but seems to be taking forever been doing it for about half hour and only got 5000 stars when people were saying you can get 30,000 in ten mins I'm having the same problem here. Battling through the level to get to the worm I can't avoid getting hit so lose the multiplier and streaks a few times. Are people getting to the worm with a full multipler and streak then? Can someone confirm that this is correct though: Once at the worm charge up the melee attack to waste the worms. This continues to build the multiplier to a max and they drop more and more stars each time. Avoid getting hit to keep streak and multiplier up. When the little worms stop dropping stars when they are wasted with melee charge, you still get awarded stars even when they drop health packs. If you kill the big worm, then quit and select continue story, all stars you gained before quitting out are not lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aphrodite1 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I can confirm that all of the above points in my previous post work. Really easy to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidenhardcore Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Brutal method, works perfect, actually I used the Stomp attack since holding the X button made me get hit more times since you freeze for a second or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent Aero Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I'm trying to grind this out now and i have a streak of 157'ish and x20 multiplier and each time i kill a small worm with the full upgraded charged attack i only get 100points/worm. Is this what's supposed to happen? How on earth are people getting 30k coins in 10 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildmn34 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Thanks for posting this method. I can't imagine how much time this saved me. It worked perfectly. Grinded out the remaining 95k and it worked like a charm. Another 1k in the books. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bringin SXC bak Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I could cry right now. Just got up to 189,000 and my game froze. Noooo!! Back down to 70,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzabit Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I could cry right now. Just got up to 189,000 and my game froze. Noooo!! Back down to 70,000 I feel your pain, that happened to me too. That was why after that, I would kill the boss after i accumulated 50k or more, quit the game and then restart the checkpoint. That way my stars accumulated would be saved.

S1L3NTxSH0T Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I could cry right now. Just got up to 189,000 and my game froze. Noooo!! Back down to 70,000 Sorry bro. But it could be worse. I was grinding points in Monsters vs. Aliens and I was 200 Monster DNA and 1200 points away from my two achievements, and my Xbox red ringed. New Slim makes grinding all night a breeze!

mrbonelly Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Ok to get the 200,000 stars ach fast, i find it strange that the guide says play upto the jack in the box and restart lvl1 because in my opinion that exactly the place u want to get to i think he missed the point of grinding, what i found way easier was upgrade the chardged attack to 3 stars and its range to 3, then when u go through after the jack in a box to the rolling worm at the end of lvl 1, do not attack the rolling worm it will spit out 6 small spiky worms, charge your attack with X and run around and take out the small worms sometimes u can get em all with one hit giving u around 1000 stars try not to hit the rolling worm, the rolling worm will just keep spitting em out with the melee attack bonus, multiplier and streak bonus's i was getting 30,000 stars in about 10 mins and no reloads or movies to withstand, much much quicker imo. This neglects to indicate that you also NEED to upgrade other sections like stars given for combat, dispatch etc in order to rack up 100 stars per worm killed. Also by upgrading is how you get bigger multiplier. At first i only had upgraded what suki said and only got 5x multiplier and got only 50k stars in about forty mins, after i upgraded fully then that's when stuff described in the guide started happening. So with that said, grind a bit to fully upgrade the combat related(or all if you could) , then go like the OP says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suki Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 sorry some confusion for some here becasue i did this after i fiished the game completely and had all upgrades just needed the stars ach.. and i thought most ppl would do the same but i guess if u try to do it on the 1st lvl on your initial playthrough u gonna have problems.

lifeexpectancy Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) Should mention in this that the stars stop appearing so people realize grinding this way is from the melee bonus stars. Some may not realize that and try to just shoot the little worms repeatedly. Edited October 13, 2011 by lifeexpectancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakeshow Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Thanks so much for this. I had the game freeze up on me once doing this when I was almost done, which was quite frustrating, but otherwise a great strategy. Couldn't imagine having to do this in the context of the game, would've drove me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moxruby Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Worked like a dream - took about 50 minutes for the last 100k I needed. In hindsight if I had to play this again i would probably grind this through for about 100k right at the beginning so that i could max up the charge attack, coin boost, gun and special weapons upgrades - it would make the rest of the game quicker. Thanks for the strategy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAMTH3GUYVER Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I might be getting this tomorrow used but before I do, how hard is Hard Mode?
