Devil May Cry 4 |OT| of daring to defy your savior

Mission 14( I think... it's dante's second forest mission) is a pain in the ass to get an S on in DMD. How do you build ANY style whatsoever against the stupid enemies that "slash," have spikes/scarecrows on them? Anytime I get a chance to hit them, their stupid spike shit just comes out and ruins everything. I can only get like 6600 in style on that mission with S in time and orbs. But I still get an A overall.

Finally got around to finishing this. I liked it better than I thought I would, but it made me want to go back and play DMC3 for some reason.

Both 19 and 20 left a bad taste in my mouth. That's why I'm letting it digest first before articulating my thoughts on the game. I don't want the closing (shitty) moments of the game sully my thoughts of the rest.

They should have made a multiplayer board game. People take turns rolling the die, if they get killed on red spaces they go back to the start of the board or something. That would have been fun.

You fight them for the
third time and have to play the shitty dice game, which isn't so bad but still very lame.
he's more or less a repeat boss too, just slightly harder with a couple new tricks. Very, very disappointing.
Pretty much, the thing I noticed allot too is...They all seem to activate at once on all of them, and end the sametime. Its on in-sych with each other. So timing them was the easiest choice for me. Make sure to time it one 1second earlier too. But once you get the time down. They become no problem other then the assualt ones which go underground...I still haven't found a efficentive way to counter that too much.Narag said:
I still hate the last boss:lol How in heck do I get an S rank versus him?:lol I found a few tricks like shooting the gun blocks the fire balls, and the pattern of his attacks...like i always know what is coming now. But its still just annoying:lol
Danielsan said:Big deal, by now I've fought the bosses countless of times. I actually concider them fun. I don't really care much about the dicegame but hey it gives me free redorbs along the way. You should try mission 18 in DMC3, chessboard+boss gauntlet.
That chessboard took longer than all the dice rolls needed to get to bosses in M19 unless you went straight for the King so I still don't get the dice complaints.
Does anyone else get the feeling Credo was supposed to be in that boss gauntlet as well but they replaced him with the shitty angelos?

Don't shoot the fireballs. Run underneath him where its a safe zone then jump up to attack. When he's doing the savior is coming speech, time it so you can snatch up to him as the AoE finishes then attack with IR air attacks. This'll break his shield almost immediately. If you do this with his back to a wall, he'll stagger slightly and be open for a knockdown. The biggest part of getting an S rank on him is the style points so mix it up, raise your style, and abuse some level 3 charged shots. If he has a sizable chunk of life left when he does the sparda charge, counter with buster and you'll get a massive amount of style points as its directly related to damage there. You don't get jack if he's nearly dead and you do that.

Are you kidding? I've played DMC3 already. Millions of time. This isn't my first DMC game. :lol
Firstly, the chess game was awesome.
Secondly, the difference in DMC3's boss gauntlet is that it's only the 2nd time you fight the bosses and you get to pick the ones you want to fight. That said, boss gauntlets need to die in general.

I think it's more like since the bosses in DMC4 are so fundamentally fuck-awesome, people just wanted more new ones.
I had no problem fighting them over again since they were fun fights, through and through. And by the time you fight them again with Nero, you're all suped up so it's pretty much your chance to own them this time around :lol

and yes about the Credo thing...I wish they put him in there too. He is my favorite boss fight.

Credo on DMD is such a bitch.
Edit: NM I beat him the first try after this post.

Ok this really sucks, I used a holy water to clear the clusterfuck of Angels and flying swords (I call them assholes), and then my sister and her 13 year old stupid friends come and kick me off the TV (it's her birthday party). Goddamnit DMD, I hate you and love you at the same time. =(
Hmmm, I was loving the game until the end... it really started with the Dante section - I mean, why does he feel so inferior/helpless compared to Nero, and it was really hard to chain combos and stuff to get high style meter. The whole revisiting bosses was semi ok, because I got a new item each time, and I wasn't feeling it was really THAT lazy UNTIL THE END OF THE GAME!!
BTW, Trish is freakin hot. Capcom, you can redeem yourselves by creating something special for me to play as DLC with Trish. Optional costume of
would earn you more brownie points. I will give you more of my moneys!
WTF thought it was a good idea to make you refight the same bosses THREE TIMES?!?! WTF IS THE POINT OF THAT?? It was EXTREMELY CHEAP AND LAZY game design. What, so you wanted to make sure that the first TWO TIMES we beat your bosses that it wasn't a fluke or something? Or perhaps you wanted to test that we could still use Nero and defeat them again since we had maybe "forgotten" after beating them with Dante? C'mon capcom, I've loved your games so far this gen, but why the IDIOCY???

her as that regal chick

Good stuff. Particularly the Echidna stuff. I think Capcom screwed themselves because now EVERY future DMC needs both Nero and Dante... I hope they anticipated this. I love his character and playstyle. I'm looking forward to trying that buster stuff out on future playthroughs.

I just beat Sanctus (lvl 11) on SoS, then tried to go back to Human to practice bustering the Savior smash. I only got it once out of about 5 tries. It seems to be a pretty tight window. I did get Sanctus down to about 1 bar of health only shattering his shield once. I used a Maximum bet followed by a DTed grab.

Nice av, I've actually cut out that very pic from my EGM and stuck it in a PS3 case for my CE DMC4. I don't feel like constantly touching that fingerprint magnet every time I want to play.
When the hell am I going to be able to change my av? Am I stuck this way permanently?

So was I until I learned to have patience instead of always trying to rush him in his bubble. Actually, it was someone in this thread that told me not to jump towards, just run to him. I don't think I ever thanked that person.... THANK YOU! I've now beat him 3 or 4 times just for practice on DH. Once you get it, you'll laugh at your frustration.

Yeah, I'm only at the beginning of SoS mode right now. Been on pause since I've gotten back into warhawk. Besides practice, I've also replayed the last mission just to show people the ending movie that isn't viewable in the theatre section.
