NEW NEW TN thread: Mr. Victor Font approved

Apparently you eventually get to port from campfire to campfire. Very limited ports.

XBOX here, more people playing, more people to invade/be invaded by.

lol dang, very limited

[Squabbler]

Speaking of this invading shit … can someone just come into your game whenever they want and just kill you for no reason? (thinking like wow pvp) Because that will be kind of retarded …

[Storyteller]

Yes, but with a level threshold. You don’t have to let them kill you though, you get rewards if you can kill them. Trust me, they are as much of scared babby as you are during the invasion.

[Hiryu02]

Also, you can summon players to help you kill bosses. But yes, if you are being invaded it really ups the ante of fear. Though I hear quite a few people invade, then help you kill shit instead of fighting you.

Alternatively you can hide once you are invaded, then backstab that sonuvabitch. Also you can’t be invaded if you are in hollow form. I.e. dead.

So far everything you guys have described about this game has sounded like repetition, memorization and time sinks that give the illusion of difficulty, rather than actual difficulty. This is nothing new though, I just find it highly amusing anyone talks about single player games and difficulty, since this is the case for pretty much any single player video game that has ever been associated with difficulty. It’s also why I learned long ago “high difficulty” in single player games is essentially meaningless.

I rolled a Bandit. Going in axe swinging.

The second I see a skeleton/zombie/whatever I’m gonna pop that fucker in the face.

[Storyteller]

Dark Souls will slip it in you, and not give you the courtesy of a reach-around.

This game only has one difficulty. “Fuck you”.

Ratings updated.

[SRKFADC]

Jas get Demon Souls I bet it rips you a new asshole it’s a man’s game

I’m getting Dark Souls soon really liked the first one

[DaxManInEffect]

Just popped a skeleton in the face. Mission accomplished.

[Storyteller]

Yeah, make Jas get it, a mans game

[L-y-c-a-n]

Did I miss something? What The FUCK are you guys talking about?

[Storyteller]

lol late to the party. Dark Souls.

[Poshib]

As much fun as you guys are having getting killed in Dark Souls you should love Marvel 3 then.

[Storyteller]

No, see, there is REWARD with getting killed here, as when you finally overcome, god damn you deserve high fives and beers for years. Losing in MvC3 is just like “oh, cool, you hit buttons and I died. I didnt get to do anything. Thanks guy”

Going to have to disagree on this. It’s not just memorization and repetition. The game actively throws stuff at you just so that it’s not just memorizing an area or enemy.

Until you’ve played it, you don’t really know how the combination of variables feels like. It’s not artificial difficulty by any means. Constant observation and adaptation as well as creative thinking aer needed to progress past certain things.

Throw in invader variables. covenants, blue phantoms, randomized enemies etc etc, and you’ll learn that more than anything you have to prepare and adapt, or die. Give it a whirl sometime and come back with your thoughts.

@Dax: Dammit I was going Bandit! Shit going to have to try Cleric now…

So would anyone be interested in getting to see a free concert tomorrow? I have 2 tix to see Childish Gambino at the new daisy but my wife had to cancel due to health reasons. Ticket is free if you want to come and doors open at 7:00. Get at me if interested.

Negro the point wasn’t it was unbeatable all OS can be beat your choosing rock and paper the guy your playing can still pick scissors. The point was Cody can do something about teleport. I also I’m 100% sure that Safe Jump OS U2 would fully hit Bison the best time being when Bison has no meter since the time he’s most likely to do it, I’d never go for this OS or the one above if Bison has meter because he has too many options making it a lot more risky, without meter Bison has a lot fewer wake up options making it a more reasonable risk.

Squab I can’t test it because my shit ain’t working but I swear I’ll be shocked if Safe Jump OS U2 doesnt work on teleport. I mean he should move anymore than he did in the vid above in which all hits got him.

Don’t call me a negro white boy. Also I was just matching your gusto, I know how OSes work, lol. No sweat homey. Good shit to Squab for testing all that shit.

Pretty sure Chris has read Knightfall. He’s read a bunch of the epic Batman stories.

Are you…are fuc-NO. I haven’t read Knightfall and even if I did, Arkham City is a new story. WHY DO YOU KEEP TALKING ABOUT DETAILS OF THE GAME? STOP IT. I DON’T KNOW HOW TO MAKE IT ANY PLAINER THAN THAT.

I’m serious though…like…stop.

Ugh.

Brief aside - Is it bad that I thought Dax was talking about something else when he said he was going to “roll a bandit?” I mean given his track record…

Nice dude! Sucks you can’t make it, but good shit to whoever scoops those tickets up. I am going to see him at the Mercy Lounge on Thursday. I HIGHLY recommend taking Sev up on this to the Memphis peeps. He’s dope as hell and getting those tickets free is just an incredible thing to have fall into place.
