I had to call my bro to see if the download had begun, and it hadn't. So much for auto-download.

Well he started the download at least! He said it was two Bloodborde things downloading at once - any idea what it is?


It's a update aswell.

Yea my preload didnt start either. Had to boot up the PS from resting.
 
I totally forgot I updated my firmware to that beta so I'm unable to stream or anything until they make that official.

Ugh, I need to quit agreeing to EULAs.
 
Was able to put in only about an hour of this last night and I sure wish 30 minutes of it wasn't spent on me trying to beat the first werewolf to death with my fists and (mostly) sitting through the long ass loading screens. Went back with trick weapons and took it down in two swings.

Now time for the longest workday ever.
 
UK peps.

I am really really really worried that "The Game Collection" wont deliver my package on time !!
How are they with deliveries ?? Should I just cancel my pre order from them and go to the mid night launch ?
 
Without any spoilers, what's the general consensus on the boss design and environment diversity?
 
I didn't read the threads or reviews. Getting my copy tomorrow. Can someone please tell if the game is still difficult and that they didn't add any mainstream concessions? The reason I ask is because of so much advertisement. Basically, is it still the souls game we know and love?
 
lol @ spoiler thread being bigger than the OT.
Spoiler thread: 200 pages in 11 days
OT: 101 pages in less than 24 hours



Yeeaaaaah :)
 
What is the eye under your soul count / blood echoes? I currently have the number 2 next to the eye but i don't know what it means.
 
Fcking hate the blunderbuss. Feel like it takes forever to shoot and it doesn't stun consistently. How do I fix this.
 
Still curious about the ins and outs of coop.

If I join someones game, do I get to keep the loot/boss rewards/blood echoes I earn during the duration of playing together? I would really hope so!

Also does the password have to be 8 characters, or can it be less?

Gestures do not show up for me , even after receiving one from npc. Is anyone having that problem.

All mine showed up by default right at the start, there are weird controller icons that go with maybe work with motion? No idea how to use motion for it though... just by clicking on them...

its still the same difficulty, however if you've played all the entries prior to bloodborne you'll have an easier time overcoming some of those challenges. is the best way to put it I think

Thanks, as expected. Since we are very well acquainted with the formula, it is a bit easier than the first time.

Excellent lol

the moment you see them swinging towards you is when you have to hit it. different enemies give different windows though so its all about feeling it out.

the big enemies with the bricks in their hand have a wide window, its good to practice on them to get the timing down.
 
What time should you shoot the big people with the hammers to stun them? (Really early on, the one that's banging on the big door)
The window is super wide for the big guys. As soon as they start running toward you or lift their arms up, hit the trigger.

Right. But it doesn't always stun- so I'm always worried to fire bc if it doesn't I'm wide open.
 
Considering how vocal the PC crowd is getting who knows lol

Maybe Sony will port it to PC themselves. Its not like they dont make any PC games (well SOE.. lol)

Ok im done throwing fuel on the fire but this seems to be the theme on NeoGAF these days
The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Maybe they listed it to shut them up ;)
 
Started with the Cane and couldn't even take down the two werewolves on the bridge. Restarted with the Saw Cleaver and beat the Cleric Beast first time. Cane = Hard Mode, for me at least.
 
With an SSHD.

Warp from Cathedral Ward to Dream Refuge: 9 sec
Warp from Dream Refuge to Central Yharnam: 24 sec
Warp from Old Bridge to Dream Refuge: 9 sec
Warp from Dream Refuge to Old Bridge: 27 sec

Death Old Bridge 30 sec
Death Cathedral Ward 35 sec
 
O god I'm still stuck.

In Old Yharnam
Is there some sort of trick to killing the hunter guy operating the machine gun on the roof, his gun absolutely demolishes me if I try to fight him =/

Climb up ladder fast using the run button. Don't walk towards him. Shoot him off ledge with pistol. Reload game to get his items.
 
Cant really read the thread (avoiding any spoilers) - but last night I got my ass handed to me. It was the complete opposite of what happened in Dark Souls 2 where I was able to beat most bosses first try.

The first boss I came to - kicked my fucking ass.

I also found some crazy optional route leading to a dungeon and ended up dying to rats.

This game is basically what Dark Souls 2 shoudlve been. Its quite the achievement so far. Cant wait to see what happens next!
 
The second boss....
what a pushover hahaha. Gwyn part 2 lol. Ripostes are so damn great. Cleric Beast was much harder
 
His window seems very generous.

I nervously blew my load as soon as he started his animation and he still got stunned.
I got killed again :-(
I'll try again tho. It seems like sometimes it stuns him for a long time and other times he just like flinches a bit.

Did you fight both of the werewolf-things at once?

Because I had to spam molotovs to get past them LOL
