Hi, I found you guys through an article I saw about W:A still receiving updates which I thought was awesome! I don't currently play on PC but have played on PlayStation. There isn't too much info online about this particular port, most sites copy and paste info about the PC version such as cheat codes etc. I do know that the PlayStation has 7 bonus schemes unlocked by missions/training. Has anyone here ever played the PlayStation port enough to unlock them? If so what do the schemes have and which is best?
Thanks!
Hello Aragworm, welcome!
We're all PC players and W:A on PC has evolved from the original game by inventing lots of schemes. I don't know the answer to your question, hopefully some of the members do. If you like W:A, it definitely worth a shot to try it on PC. You won't regret it.
Hi MonkeyIsland,
Yeah I figured you're all primarily PC so I put my post in the most off-topic on-topic area lol I'm hoping since you're all worms veterans someone here might have played a few other ports! Obviously, I'll likely unlock them all myself eventually but it might take a while since I'm fairly terrible!
Thanks!
I played the ps1 port before i got it on steam
I never played any version of Worms which was not made for PC. However, recently I made a list of intrinsic and exclusive schemes of these platforms. Hopefully some people can contribute to write about these schemes, otherwise, I'll do it myself using emulators when I have enough free time and patience. I still need to check if WWP versions for other hardwares have exclusive schemes too. It seems that the Dreamcast WA version doesn't have any exclusive scheme, I still want to confirm this, though.
The list I made can be found here: https://worms2d.info/Schemes#Other_hardwares_exclusives
afaik there's no independently researched info about console releases of 2nd-gen worms games at all, but if the default WA schemes on PC are anything to go by, I don't think we'll find anything ground-breaking. With that said, if you think you can make a recording of all of the schemes (as in, going to the scheme list to see their names, then selecting them, then opening the scheme options and weapon options of every scheme one by one) then it could be a decent source for WKB articles
