Star Fox: Assault medals, Special Flags and local versus setup
Keep campaign score objectives separate from versus unlock progress.
Edition covered
Original 2005 GameCube game. The campaign is linear and combines Arwing, Landmaster and on-foot missions. Some archive promotional images use Japanese dialogue and pre-release box art.
Choose the difficulty before the attempt
Bronze, Silver and Gold alter the challenge. Check the displayed medal threshold for the chosen mission and difficulty.
| Goal | Track | Preparation |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze medal | Bronze mission score | Learn enemy positions |
| Silver medal | Silver mission score | Improve consistency |
| Gold medal | Gold mission score | Master hazards and scoring |
| Special Flags | Mission collectible record | Search off the direct route |
Build score through efficient combat
Learn where enemy groups appear so shots connect without long gaps. Keep survival stable before optimizing a score route.
| Choice | Effect | Good first setup |
|---|---|---|
| Player count | Up to four local players | Start with a manageable map |
| Vehicle access | Changes combat range | Agree before beginning |
| Weapon availability | Changes match pressure | Learn standard weapons first |
| Stage selection | Changes cover and movement | Choose familiar terrain |
Search separately for Special Flags
Collectible flags require exploration or careful attention to their placement. A fast score run and a full flag sweep need not be the same attempt.
Agree on local versus rules
Versus supports up to four players. Select maps, allowed vehicles and available weapons to suit the group’s experience.
