THANK YOU JESUS
Go to the lady
Hmm. I've met two ladies. Time to look around more.
Did you disable the Steam overlay?
Anybody had any problems with a wired xbox 360 controller and a gtx 780? I am 30 min away from leaving for home from work and booting it up but all these problems people seem to be having are scaring me.
I'm using a wired 360 controller without any issues.

Sorry if this was asked before and I missed it, but is there any way to turn off the early access weapons so they don't show up in the game? Doesn't seem like you can just discard them. I know I can put them in the box thing at bonfires but I'd rather they not exist if it's possible. I didn't even pre-order the game but got 'em anyway haha.
Steamworks now and yes buy it. Everything is just so much smoother and its a Souls game.
Seriously though, how does voice chat work? Item based, always open, only friendly phantoms?
It was a tiny hint because I was not sure you wanted to know...!
Durante, quality mod you created here. It performs admirably with windowed mode, downsampling obviously doesn't work but the other effects remain on and it's stable (where alt+tabbing when downsampled tends to crash many games for me). The DS2 client in general, unless you're experiencing crashes of course, seems incredibly smooth and efficient and well-designed to me.
I will either use 1440p or try and accept the framerate hit at 1800p (looks so good). But man this is awesome. Now for... the actual game.

Well sure, now I know it's a person I talk to.
Apparently people with VAC bans are finding that they can't play the game.
It may be that dark souls 2 is using VAC enabled servers exclusively for online? I hope so because I think it is hilarious seeing some of their posts. There should he high penalties for cheaters. I'm not sure what the experience was like in the original

thx for info the gpu scaling worked for me to at least start it.
ATi/AMD HD6870 here.... playing on 1440. 59-60 fps.
No crashes.
But I have three major issues:
1) Can't bind mouse_4 and mouse_5 buttons.
2) No idea how to kick, since no idea how that translates in a KB/M setup
3) My "fast" right attack button seems to fail near any enemy.
If the enemy is away, no problem. If it's close, it seems to have a delay or not register at all. Have been killing everyone with strong attack only... which sucks.
SOLUTION to #3: Download Autohotkey!!

Lol just go to the lady you met in the Bonfire, near the sea you silly GAFfer!
What did you have going on?

That would be strange as VAC bans are game specific.
I am, and I'm using the bolded.
I've had no problems thus far with DS2. The tool did give me some problems a while ago, though. It used to work on/off for me. I had to re-install it a handful of times before it worked right. Before.. after I'd unplug the usb from the DS3 it'd stop working. It's fine now. I dunno why it gave me so much trouble before. I'm of no help.
Now I'm just waiting for some kind soul to make some dualshock button icons that I can place in-game. Get to it some random person!
Try with SLI bit 0x02004005 and let me know if that works. I am using it now, but don't have any tools to track it with. I used this with DS1 and it worked great.
Btw I am running 2560x1600 with 2xSGSSAA (trying to reduce blur) and I seem to be at a constant 60 but then again I am not testing my fps or anything.
Lol, I didn't see her before.

I figure since the tech folks are in here I'll use this opportunity to ask a question about using a TV for my monitor for this game.
My TV is my monitor and has an HDMI. It used to immediately go to a PC resolution (1920x1080) when I booted Windows 8. I also got audio from the TV speakers just fine so I didn't need PC speakers. After a driver update on my graphics card though (GTX 660) it defaults to the "Ultra HD" 1080p resolution every time the PC boots (aka TV resolution) so the picture sucks and I have to go into my Nvidia Control Panel and change it to PC 1920x1080.
Problem is, this also happens when a program goes to full screen (not windowed full screen). So if I change to PC resolution then click a game in full screen it goes back to the crappy TV resolution. I've been getting around it in other games with windowed full screen but Dark Souls II doesn't have that option so my image quality suffers playing the PC version.
Any ideas on forcing Windows or Nvidia Control Panel to stay at a PC resolution without losing my HDMI audio? It used to work, now it doesn't. I figure it has to do with EDID but when I use an external program to force EDID to PC I lose audio because it's being tricked to think it's DVI.

Played for 2 hours, got pretty far,
went back to Majula and realized that Majula girl is chilling under the tree, so now I'm finally able to upgrade and get an Estus Flask.

The key to making a good looking male character: use beards. I have two females and two males on the PS3, and my dudes are sexay as hell.
Wish I had a capture card.WHAT! Really? That is awesome.
I'm totally making a powerstance scimitar Drizzt toon as soon as I get this version. I wanted to wait til a Steam sale to double-dip but... now someone may steal my idea. ;_;
No, you regain humanity every time you see "Duty Fulfilled". Or at least, you should...
Oh my. You guys are playing the pre-patch version? This is really odd. This behaviour happened before the patch, but was fixed on consoles a while ago now...
Haha. I actually made a bunch of ASoIaF toons in Dark Souls, including a White Walker. xD

Damn, borderless fullscreen doesn't work. I tried two different utilities and they all leave a bit of a border around the edges. Not the biggest deal but I really wish borderless fullscreen was standard.

PRAISE THE SUN, DAMMIT!
SMOOTH AND SILKY 1080p 60FPS EDITION
Holy crap this runs fantastic!!! I have a shitty GeForce GTX 650 and it's taking it like a champ!
So, praising the sun...
And ThisIsNeoGAF:
It's almost like that gesture was done for GAF!
It's a shame the sconces in Things Bexwit (sp?) are a living testimony of an area that was probably supposed to be pitch black and you had to use the torch a lot. (Although it clashes with the 5 minutes length of the bloody thing.)

Hmm. I got DS3 Tool to install correctly and it's registering inputs when I check the device, but DSII won't recognize it at all now.
edit: I should say I'm using this as a wired USB controller, not through bluetooth if that changes anything for anyone.
Dude...this worked perfectly, thank you for telling me this!I'm using 0x02004005, SLI works but I have strange drops for no reason it feels like, running like butter then all of a sudden the GPU usage tanks for a few seconds then goes back up again. I'll wait for your findings.
Did you tick the box for "Hide DS4 Controller"? I had the same problem before I did that.

Thank you based Durante, 4k.

tried to use durante's gedosato but cant activate DoF, it always says its deactivated but I already configured the ini to say "on"
It's still not working, I can't see the cinematic for the game. Something about an issue with Windows Media Player on my computer. Not sure!

Almost 58,000 people in game right now, was around 500 before it officially unlocked.
