Depends how many people are playing, I guess.

No, servers aren't up yet.

 

[Darryl M R]

They have the disease but in a very early stage.

What is the disease? I'm so confused.

Take a closer look at those humans. They aren't normal. Also most of the story comes from reading items and talking to NPCs.

So there are no explanations or cut scenes to help the player along? It seems like that is how this game was designed correct? Rather than how Bungie did it with Destiny. Though I still have no clue what a Hunter is and why I am hunting?

 

[ProvenDeadly]

I am no expert but I would recommend dodging as they swing/charge. And then attack. Gun should be used for a stun if they are too close.

 

[Raide]

Will Jeff Green be playing this?

 

[SonicXtreme]

is shooting the only way to 'parry' in this game? did you lose the ability to parry with offhand weapons or to block while 2 handing a weapon?

 

[Finalow]

those enemies were like "wha- who killed my companions!?"

 

[aly]

Fence was too op for Molotov coktail.

 

[Capella]

So I'm guessing the doors with lamps out front have NPCs behind them?

 

[bananafactory]

lol. at least he got them with the second one.

 

[BearPawB]

yes. if you shoot during their swing animation, you will stun them and can go for a critical hit.

Spoiler

there is at least one shield but rumors are it isn't good

 

[Yoshichan]

HOw are you watching it on your iphone? it isnt loading for me?

I'm using 4g, not Wifi

 

[Carn82]

So there are no explanations or cut scenes to help the player along?

Nope. Just bits and pieces from NPCs, and descriptions from items etc. Altough I guess that the strategy guide might contain some extra info. But no worries, there will be a Bloodborne wiki with a gazillion theories within a week

 

[Derpyduck]

i guess then the patch didn't enable online like people initially said it did. Others are playing

He got an error message about the servers being offline when he selected Online.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Guys, is the kick back ? It wasn't in the alpha but I've saw it in some trailer.

 

[Typicalrik]

got it, lol, i figured it out! it looks crisper on the iphone 6+

 

[Finalow]

hint for the streamer,

don't run or evade when attacked, if you attack the enemy right after you receive damage you can recover some of your life.

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

Nice!

 

[blainethemono]

Will Jeff Green be playing this?

pretty sure he's said on his stream many times that he wants to play it day one, not sure if he's said anything recently though

 

[Yoshichan]

Yep, it's insane!

No, Bungie hid the story in their website in long ass useless text, in Souls games the lore is inside the game & it's not in 500 paragraphs.

 

[Derpyduck]

What does the +4 in red indicate under bullets

As you go through talking to people and explore, you will piece together what's going on. Yeah they are designed that way. Kinda confusing at first, but you start to pick it up. Think the only cut scenes are for boss battles.

So I'm guessing the doors with lamps out front have NPCs behind them?

Yep!

 

[BearPawB]

Spoiler

when u press up on the dpad you spend your life to get 5 emergency bullets, he keeps doing it by accident

 

[Typicalrik]

ugh, now im gonna refresh gaff, watch stream on phone and do nothing else tonight, im gonna get nothing productive done!

 

[Easy_D]

I see he went with the superior starting weapon. All those floppy physics, that would be a killer feature for SotFS, floppy physics for all!

 

[ProvenDeadly]

Are the "save points" in this game the lanterns?

 

[Sinnermighty]

What does the +4 in red indicate under bullets

Blood Bullets, you can use them if you run out of QS bullets (or if you already have QS, blood take priority), press Up on dpad, use a portion of your HP to create them.

 

[Giriath_89]

What does the +4 in red indicate under bullets

You can consume some of your health to make 5 bullets.

 

[--R]

What does the +4 in red indicate under bullets

Bullets made of blood, you can make them pushing the up arrow in the d-pad. It uses a bit of your HP, tho.

 

[dripdripsplash]

FUCKING WELL DONE MAN!!!

 

[Krusenstern]

That was close!

 

[ricelord]

hes learning!!!

 

[Elixist]

this game is so siiik, im so ready.

 

[Alo0oy]

Man, you're a natural, you're learning faster than the other streamers.

These games tell their stories in a much different way than most. Pay close attention to NPC dialogue and read item descriptions. You'll piece it all together as you go along.

 

[bananafactory]

This guy is a quick learner

Doin much better than those two the other night

Is there a shortcut nearby for him to open?

 

[Darksol]

Not quite using the gun right...but you'll learn.

It's defence, not offence

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

This guy has potential.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

He's thought: "OOOHH SHEIIIIIIIT"

left on d-pad is a torch I think.

 

[Raide]

HAH! Good panic fall.

 

[Alo0oy]

If you use your gun just as the enemy starts his attack animation, he will be stunned & you can perform a critical attack.

 

[zXe]

Could someone pm a link to this stream if possible? thanks =)

 

[Loomba]

Can someone pm me the stream please?

 

[misterhektik]

He should level up before he loses progression

 

[Tcab96]

[KCroxtonJr]

[StarlordDial]

[Sinnermighty]

He probably doesn't know how yet.
