How many times have they recut that original trailer now? They're getting some mileage.

Especially since halve the footage is from places that are not in the game or look a lot different ingame.

BTW, is the Console release still at v1.00 or has any patches been released already?

consoles are on v1.03

 

[AHA-Lambda]

a post earlier in the thread states that they're sending them tomorrow.

Awesome, thanks

 

[phaeta]

=O

Did you just barely get that? Amazon hasn't sent me anything about that, and mine still shows the 25th.

Yeah, got it this morning (a few hours ago EST).

The most recent patch nerfed a bunch of easy bosses :|

Made them even easier? That's not good.

Wonder if the preload data already contain them or are we going to get those as zero-day patches.

Yep, Casuls have won.

 

[L.O.R.D]

The download has finished (at 7 GB), and I haven't seen any changes. So it was probably like I expected, just a few minor fixes.

I believe the download itself was about 8 GB, and the game requires about 11 GB of disc space installed.

the pre load files are 8.2 GB , and that 7 GB update
that mean the total is 15 GB ? or there is some install files ?

 

[TrueMenace]

How will a GTX 480 fair? Max settings easy?

An abandoned hornet's nest my dad found in his shed that he hadn't been in for a couple years. The head is apart of a wooden statue it fused with.

Don't read too much into this. Since the game is in a pre-release format, From just sent over a massive patch to rewrite all of the files rather than packing it up nicely like they will for retail.

 

[bbd23]

so this comes out tomorrow now?

 

[Twenty7KVN]

Holy shit that's freaky.

Thanks for posting Nightmare Fuel.

 

[FlyinJ]

Can I play this right now if I unlock with a VPN?

 

[Grief.exe]

Remind me more of Divayth Fyr, who is a key NPC in Morrowind and the only place to get a couple pieces of Daedric armor.

 

[TeddyShardik]

Damn...Queelag's cousins are busy producing egg freaks.

Probably not max settings but if you scale some stuff back you should be able to play well.

 

[KarmaCow]

I don't think the game is released anywhere yet, so no. The earliest is in about a day and 5 hours.

Thank you!

 

[Tak3n]

Anyone received their key from Simplycdkeys yet?

Nope

This gif is why I got curious about Dark Souls in the first place. xD

 

[Alo81]

Nope.

As far as I know it releases the same time everywhere.

5Pm CST.

[Kiyoshi]

a post earlier in the thread states that they're sending them tomorrow.

Do they send an email when the key is available? Or do we need to keep checking the order page? Never ordered from them before.

 

[Laurentius]

Yeah, got it this morning (a few hours ago EST).

Hm, thanks. Mine still says the 25th, but hopefully it gets bumped up. I'm home all day tomorrow, but I'm not on Friday. So it would be nice to know that I wouldn't be missing the delivery guy at all.

 

[Deadbeat]

Is hex the new way to cheese the game? What would be an ideal build?

 

[Schweinehund]

Reminds me of Aliens when the guy is plastered against the wall asking for some to kill him.

Found this on the Facebook page, seems that SL150 is looking like the offical PVP level.

 

[TrueMenace]

Or someone else could interpret it as that there is no point in an official PvP level when mostly everyone is over SL 210 because of....Soul Memory...

Apparently the SL and Soul Memory limits are bugged right now, at least for NG+. They meant to fix it in calibration 1.04, but it sounds like that didn't quite work out.

Spoiler

The ranges are supposed to be +/- 10 SL *and* 50,000 Soul Memory.

 

[Facism]

Awesome, thanks

i'm hoping my order doesn't get fucked up as they took payment after an email to their support about my card's expiry being before the game's release all the way back in january. Or at least that they don't attempt to take payment again lol

Won't be able to get on until the evening, but this is excellent news. Guess I'm not sleeping Thursday night!

So SL 150 players can only pvp with 140-160 players? 50k Soul Memory is pointless to consider because you will definitely have more than that at SL 150.

Edit: Also, where did you hear it was bugged? Just curious.

 

[Levyne]

I have to work on Friday

Apparently those figures came from contacting Namco and From. They're not correct right now, however.

I took off Friday but was expecting it not to open till 3:00 AM EDT...

This is awesome!!

Should have taken a vacation day dude. All the cool people are doing it.

Here's the response from Namco that I got my information from: http://support.bandainamcogames.com...---im-having-trouble-with-summoningsinvasions

AFAIK SM range is largely expanded on NG+

 

[Durante]

I guess I should mention that the DS2 PC is now at Version 1.01 / Calibrations 1.05.

 

[creyas]

Spoiler

Don't worry.

You can't.

 

[Levyne]

Wish it was an option. Not in the cards.

Oh well.

 

[friday]

Finding out that this comes out tomorrow instead of Friday is the best new I have heard all week. Can't fucking wait!

 

[SargerusBR]

Day 1 patch confirmed then. Consoles have patch 1.03
