I have been trying all day and can't even get past stage 2 now, the bogey just kills me even when i'm boost dodging, and then i'm full HP and I get hit by a shot and die instantly, it's not even the huge charge attack either, I don't get it :/

This might not work, tried on round 1 of challenge 4.
An explosion of a flamethrower will cause chain reaction between flamethrowers, but do not harm the blue shotgun bots nearby...

By now, I can pass round 2 without using EMP.
I try to aim Bogey from the beginning after he slow down, and kill him with 2~4 AR energy.
It "was" a quick and easy way to go through round 2. Hope it will help.
And recently I find that Bogey's motion changed...
Instead of coming close at the beginning, Bogey chooses to fly away from me, and shoot from the behind...
What the...

Ok... I had enough...
M.I.C. grenade is so unreliable, and doesn't explode when the time I need it the most...
I think it's time to give up and continue to study for exams.
Will be back after a week or two~

I aim a tiny bit above their heads on a slight angle and it works 90% of the time, even from far away (assuming you stay in AR mode). At the start of round 3 on challenge 6, I usually manage to decapitate every Romanov from the stairs in less then a minute.

It's nearly impossible to gather them all in one area, honestly wave 3 is one of the easiest as long as you perfect that beginning strategy of grenading the 5 red robots as soon as they spawn (they spawn before the Romanovs so they won't see you and move towards you, only the 2 drill ones). And then get the 2-for-1 off the Flamethrower killing a Drill along the way.

From there only the left side Drill Romanov will move towards you and just shoot LFE at him when he gets too close, he exposes his back to you a lot making it easy to use the HMG to fire 4-5 shots into his back then switch to LFE and shoot him away (all in AR mode) and get back to cover.

Being at the top of the map where you initially spawned protects you from the Missile firing Romanov all the way at the back. And once you're down to the last 2 Romanov (after the Drill is dead) you just wait for to see the Missile firing Romanov bend over to launch the giant missle from his back and blow it up before he is able to fire it killing him.
The last Romanova is a cake-walk from there.

OMG!!! I just finished this gxd dxmn challenge 6!!!(Shouldn't this guy be preparing for the exam...?)
The last Bogey moves so fast, but my heart beats even faster and my hands are shaking...
(Nope, I didn't take drugs...
OK! This time I gonna throw this game far away and go to study for real!

For those still fighting with 6-5, here's my strategy...
Lock-on Laser is your good friend, but be careful, one shot one time.
Listen carefully what Bogey says, what he said is what he is going to do next second.
If you switch to Japanese voice, you will get clearer voice. (much better than English one)
If it's dangerous to shoot enemy EMPs, just run away.
Use EMP not only for defensing but also for attacking.
The damage of HMG is higher, but the range is shorter and it's harder to aim.
Switch to Assault Rifle for the last Bogey, Because he will move crazily fast when he feels lonely...

Yeah~ Finally it's done! Thank you all!!!

You mean got to round 5 but failed?
First 2~3 times died before cleaning up those balls...
And 2~3 times fell in front of 2 Bogey...
And the first time I killed one of them is the last time I played.
So I think it's about 6 times.

I see thanks. I still haven't beat wave 4 =(

[Echidnalexx]

well I just got to wave 5 at last, I only had 2 ball enemies left but then I died =(

tried again.. died on wave 2 -_- sweating like crazy cause of this.

[Echidnalexx]

okay.. I keep dying on wave 4 this is ridiculous. I am starting on the top of the stairs, on the right-ish side, I start out by throwing an EMP and trying to blow up any balls I can see and then I make my way right and try to find the first floating turret to take that out, that's about when I usually die.. this method is obviously not working for me, is there a better place to start on this wave? where EXACTLY do the floating turrets spawn? because I can never find them until i'm practically dead, and then it's game over.

i'm so fucking pissed off with this game right now.
