Insider Connect, worth it?

Week 4 challenges are listed as "Very hard", and some of them are definitely trickier than others. I managed to get AIQ (play soul gem), JP (start CHAOS mb), and UXM (reach the future) on the first try, but those were pretty easy. Getting a soul shard on IM was also pretty straightforward, but that's mostly about getting the right mode going (Hallowed and Fear of the Dark seem to be the easiest to complete for me), which took a couple of tries. These two are still elusive though:



I don't think I've ever gotten an area51 super in Foo, but then again, I haven't really tried much. A51 is usually about helping a mode along, so I'll have to give it a little more focus. I tried for the Saucer Attack MB in GZ a few times though, and it's actually pretty tricky to get. I've played hundreds of games of Godzilla, and I've never seen that mode. I looked it up, and it takes 6 saucer takedowns, each of which takes a bunch of pop bumper hits followed by a quick shot back to the bumper, all of which are dangerous. No wonder it's not something you see very often. It's still fun to try and go for it though, and I learned about a feature that I didn't know was there. Maybe it's something to try for if you get close naturally?

Saucer MB is really just a matter of the saucer getting lit more than anything. Don't try to light it by hitting the saucer, just wait for it to get lit by rolling back up the mecha alley and back down. It instantly lights the saucer.

It and Elvira are probably tied for the hardest to get for my machines. House Party Super Jackpot for Elvira.

Finishing Jaws MB 1 on Jaws is up there and Finishing Enter Sandman on Metr.

Those are the 2 I have at home and definitely way harder than a whole lot of them. Just look at the Acheivements and the % of completion for those.

If you have a machine with IC already, just buy a wifi dongle and a micro sd card for each other games , and you just saved yourself 200usd per machine.

I had never bothered with Disco multiball on DP until it was a badge.
A touch harder on a premium
Aerosmith was not a problem to finish a starting mode.
Week 5.....

Disco Multiball's light show is awesome though

Yeah, I tried that, but it's a lot of kind of hoping you get it in a long game. What is interesting is if you can shatz the saucer shot it credits for 2 of them. Still not easy to do though. Tried a couple of times at Maple last night, and didn't get past 3 of them. May try again on my home machine. I haven't really gone for the Foo one yet.
