Tips and Strategy on Beating Stage 5 on Crazy

[Kevin]

Stage 5 on Crazy is one of the hardest challenge in LF2 . I finally beaten it with Deep, but that is after I used the correct strategy plan. In this video, I explained to the details my strategy plan that works best so far. Hope it helps for you guys who want to beat Stage 5 on Crazy . With heroes, without cheats or transform of course :P .
*With freeing criminals of course*, because even with that this is still very difficult .

There is an English subtitle to aid my bad articulation.


I explained details, such as who you should kill first, who you should focus on next, where you should start, when you should free the criminals, when to order stay and move to your allies, and some more additional strategy, so it's worth the eight minutes you will use up to watch this video .


Oh, I remember what Gordon says in HF XD . LF2 is cool right? Not only HF needs strategy. LF2 also needs it!

That's impressive.

Of course LF2 needs strategy.



In stage 5-1 i think the first who should be killed are jan then monk not knights. Jan will charge them all the time if you don't kill her quickly.

I kinda disagree with you in the last phrase of stage 5-1. Criminals should be free since in the first moment, because it's hard to beat a lot of enemies. Not everybody can beat them alone.

In the end of stage 5-2, you don't free the sorcerer when the enemies come? I think he should be free before the enemies come. You lost some reserves because your army is not powerful.

I liked other stages.

Point is that stage 5 is ridiculously hard. If you cannot survive the first few waves, you'll stand no chance later on. Freeing the criminals as late as possible is great because it'll give you higher reserves later on (as in: less coms die in stages that you can already master).

Also, how many have actually beaten stage 5 on crazy?
Can't really think of any, so congratz, Kevin!

I am not able to beat stage 5 on crazy.:P It's very difficult. Chars like Bat, LouisEx especially firzen are very difficult to beat. Firzen can end your game easily with an explosion(if he is able to get time to explode). Even if you are somehow able to get on stage 5-5 julian makes it extremely difficult to crack it. Julian's hp seems to be infinite in stage 5-5 and also his armor makes it difficult for us to damage him.
Saving the reserves of your army is most important strategy. Try to fight out as many as you can without using your army. Try to grab milk bottles as quickly as possible when you are sort of your hp at least 1/3.

Only once did I kill Julian on CRAZY! mode, but then a power outage occured.
Everyone always went close combat, though.

You are extremely skilled, Kevin, to have beaten CRAZY! mode.

Thanks, Kevin, I just went through Stage 5 crazy with your strategy using Firen, and won with an extra remaining half of my hp.

Before I use the strategy I always run out of men in 5-5 and eventually lose after a pretty long fight.
Especially because I lost too many men on 5-2 because I tried to kill Bat first :P . And yeah, I think I should have freed the sorcerer before the enemies come, because else the others will get damaged more.

Wow, that's great beating it with Firen . I haven't been able to do it with any other hero. Power shortage!! It used to suck, but now I use laptop and it has battery XD .

Here's another video: Deep Crazy Stage 5 (with videos)

@DrDeath below me: Here's the chinese guy's recording. His strategy was to transform into Firzen and blow up in Julian's face over and over again.
