I guess they don’t want the DMC1 strategy of “shoot everything from far away” to come back. I remember in DMC1 taking out bosses with just E&I. Too bad a balance could not be made though between DMC1 power and DMC3 weakness.
haha yeah I do remember that.
Shooting down that flying boss from Part DMC1…but then again that was reasonable though since it was in the air most of the time.
:amazed: id idnt try chargeing. hmm.
I’m guessing(hoping) that the demo is on easy. People die too early :sad:
Once you get the timing down for Insta-Exceed, Frosts get absolutely RAPED. Speaking of Frost, I love that every enemy has their own introduction now. That was something I thought was so damn cool in DMC1. It gave every enemy kind of their own personality. The first time that demon with scissors came out, I was like “Oh shi–”
Hope you guys are liking the demo. I won’t be able to get to it for a few hours.
Reading all this made me start playing DMC3…and got my ass handed to me.
Yeah I plugged the ol PS2 back in for a run on Hard…got my ass kicked severely on Mission 3
Fuck you Cerberus :sad:
It starts getting easier after Cerberus, and MUCH easier after A&R.
haha same here as well, popped in DMC3 and man i’m getting my ass kicked as well haha. :sad::lovin:
jus finished playin the dmc4 demo.got it from my jp account. NA version is today around 6-7 est. i beat the demo and i gota say that shit is fun.definitely gona have to buy the game now.
I took the pussy way out. At this point the only thing I’m interested in is the Story to be up and running for DMC4 so …I just took 4-year-old-could-do-this-with-a-blindfold-on mode.
In the immortal words of my girlfriend after I told her I would never go camping with her because quote, bugs are gross: “Oh my god, man up bitch!”
My girlfriend wants to play with me this weekend so I put it down and I’ll start over with her tomorrow.
For whatever it’s worth, the charge shot for Nero’s gun can launch fallen enemies.
Man this is a sick demo. Beat both sections of the demo. Sick game over all, runs flawlessly on PS3. Just for people wondering I beat the demo within the time limit. I had about 30 seconds remaining when I did. Sadly to do what I did u need to keep combos to the minimal and abuse his devil bringer throw.
DMC2 had horrible strategy. EVERYTHING could be defeated with E&I. The game was in such open areas that you basically didn’t need to go up close. But of course…DMC2 never existed. :looney:
God this demo rocks. DMC4 is going to be just as good as 1 & 3. Nero’s devil bringer has some pretty cool moves, I’m enjoying the grim grip especially. I like how they put the life bar on the enemies when you lock on, it’s a nice touch.
I didn’t include DMC2 in my comparison cause I like to believe it doesn’t exist. :tdown:
There is a speed run I saw of the game where the player doesn’t get hit once, and whores E&I and the Rocket Launcher for 90% of the game. I remember one boss literally stood at the other end of the room while I shot it to death. Or how about that menacing “Building Face” boss.
Yeah the life bar addition to the target should be a staple in action games:woot:
The deceiver/deceived and betrayer/betrayed US DMC4 sites have been updated with another live action short of Dante vs Nero.
Tiger’s impressions:
-Well, the taunt has been nerfed. Once I did it and got a SS, another time I did it and got nothing. weird.
-Reving the sword alright but didn’t seem too useful. I could kill three enemies in the time it took me to rev it once.
-Blue roses charge shot is fucking gay. It charges faster but it actually has recovery time unlike Dante’s, which means using it really hold no point in my eyes so far.
-I did a helm splitter a few times, but I don’t know how. Anybody else know?
-the frosts seemed to have learned thier lesson from the last time they appeared. Niggas is kinda bad now.
-Berial, for the first 50% health felt like a creampuff. But I should’ve known that he would have a second stage attack pattern, being a DMC boss and all…and that pattern changed him drastically. that anti-air combo swat he does got me off guard so bad. He killed me a few times before I got him. But it was basically me learning his pattern. He has me hyped for the games other battles.
-Devil bringer is in no way NEARLY AS COOL or FUN as
dante’s styles.
