Regarding difficulty levels - do you have to reach an A rank to beat any level on DMD, HoH, and HaH, or is that just for Son of Sparda? Just curious.

for those who are having problems with secret mission 6 and 7 here are some tips to make it easier
SM6
SM7
this is quite easy if you know the trick.
SM6
there are two get the scare crow out of the way.
1. the way its in the link here. I found this hard as hell because the seeds didnt wait.
2. perform the buster and hold the scarecrow up. now all you have to do is avoid the seeds by double jumping (time it right or else you will get caught).
much easier

activate the platforms and wait for the platform to reach the blue orb.
perform a streak to send nero flying off the end, air hike, then calibur to reach the other platform.
look at the video for reference

What do you get for completing Accomplishments? Any unlockable content?
Just finished it for the first time. Holy shit this game is all kinds of awesome. Love the Pandorra. BTW can I transform it into this flying thing that shoots rockets or are those unlockable transformations all?
Now on with the spoiler:
Now on with the spoiler:
It kinda sucks that we don't get to know the origin of Nero. I really like the charcter and bsides som mentioning that he inhereted the powers of Sparda there is kinda nothing. Is he another son or what?
I also hope DMC5 will pick up from the end. Playing the whole trio would be awesome. If they add Nero even more awesome. But for 5 they should make it possible to play every mission with the character you want and allow multiple ways or something (because of the Devil Bringer).

IF you don't mind cheesing it, you can jump on top of that thing in the middle of the room. He'll try to follow you there by jumping up onto one of the edges and you can just buster him in midair (he cant dodge/counter while he's in the middle of a jump). Repeat and try to do it while DT'd and you'll win. It does a little more than half a bar normally and a more than a bar while dt'd. If he does manage to knock you off, just wait till he jumps back down after you, jump back on and repeat.

Hmm, there seems to be a lack of audio\visual cues for enemy attacks compared to DMC3. The enemies seem a lot harder to read in comparison. Kind of dissapointing, Royal Guard was my favourite style in 3 and without these cues it'll be a lot less fun :-/ In DMC3 you could be combo-ing it up in the middle of a pack of enemies and still parry everything just by paying attention to sounds. Maybe I just need to play some more to pick up on the cues but at the moment im not seeing or hearing much telegraphing of attacks.
Oh well, game still rocks, enjoying Nero a hell of a lot more than I thought I would.

It's a Capcom game, what did you expect? :lol

My wussy way:
Do nothing but dodge until he runs at you. When he's running, that means he's going to do his downward air attack. Dodge, devil bringer, ^^,^^^^ combo.
It takes forever, but it was the only way I could guarantee he wouldn't counterattack or dodge.
Never initiate an attack unless you at least devil bringer stun him. Even then, it's a crap shoot if you'll be ever to string a combo together.

Is there any way to replay mission 1 WITHOUT the goddamn tutorial every time?

If turning tutorials off doesn't do it then probably not.pancakesandsex said:

Loving it so far.
Any help?
I'm on the second mission as Dante I believe, and I love Dante and being able to switch styles but I gotta say I miss Nero's demon arm. It really adds another dimension to the combat and I can see why Capcom opted to add him to DMC4.
That said, I'm stuck in the Lost Woods as Dante. The part where there's four different directions to go, and each time you go wrong you get sent down to the Hidden Pit to fight enemies.

So I grabbed it last night for the 360 and it's pretty fun although it seems a little too easy on Human mode, one thing I have to say is the save system is pretty f*ckin riddiculous if you save after completing a mission the game treats it as a midlevle save meaning if you don't save at the start of the new mission you have to play the previous level all over again. Also while I'm on gripe why the f*ck do I have to download friend informatio seprately. if XBLA can have seemless leader boards theirs no reason why retail games can't.
But overall the actual gameplay is very solid, in a weird way it's kinda reminicint of Metroid Prime...

where it says go towards the light? just keep[ heading down the path that is in the direction of the sun, look for the one that has the shadows of the trees and the archway casting away from it.

The disappearing platform one was awesome.
Just focus on the platforms, and keep your one eye on the enemies.
White to blue to red -- it's all indicated. Nothing is random.

Uhh...that doesn't make sense.
When you finish a mission...it says Mission Menu, Next, Save.
You click save, and save the game, you're good.
Then all you do when you boot it up - is make sure to click right on the d-pad to start the next mission. It defaults on the one you just did...but just click right to cycle to the next mission. There are relatively big left and right arrows next to it, indicating you can cycle. I don't know how you overlooked that...

just started mission 12. I am weak with dante, I really miss snatch to keep the pressure.
This is going to take some practice.

Actually, whenever I see Dante's new face, I can't help but notice just how much asian influence there is.Holy Order Sol said:
Just like Snake
Atleast their excuse is "Snake is half-japanese" :/hisluxarific said:
"keep it in the family" line was referring to him needing to get ahold of Yamato. However, I still want to find out what relationship Nero has with Dante, or more importantly, Vergil.
Hmm, I didn't realize that heaven or hell mode has the enemies die in 1 hit. Really easy and relaxing. I think I'll use this mode to gather the rest of the blue orb fragments since you can speed run it so so fast.
Only downpoint is you hardly get any proud souls each mission since it seems like the majority of the souls come from style points.

I wish I could save before a boss battle and not have to play through the whole level again just to get to it.
But this is a complaint I've had with every DMC game.

Holy shit.
I just checked out the dmc4 gamefaq boards and between the 360 and ps3 dmc4 boards there are almost 3,000 topics :lol
Not dealing with that one....
There are checkpoints before a boss.
Though you can't hard-save in a middle of a mission.
