If capcom ever do a Capcom Allstar like MVC3, Nero would be a pretty damn good replacement for spencer.

It kinda sucks having to play through Dante/Nero campaign to obtain all of of the weapons.
 
I went and did the hex editing to remove the motion blur and depth of field. Still must be some other settings screwing up the game. I get 60 fps, it says I'm getting 60 fps, but sometimes it doesn't look like it. Like it knows there's supposed to be motion blur and something else going on but there isn't, and it doesn't know what to do.

Better than waiting for a patch and not playing at all I guess, but right now the game looks and runs notably worse than the original. They really bungled this in a terrible attempt to update the graphics.

I wanna try that hex edit but I'll wait a bit for a patch to see if they'll let us toggle post-processing on/off. That DOF(?) on Berial's stage was just gross, especially as it seems to make the models look more pixelized/low-res on occasion.

Why do I keep hitting these spikes!? I don't think I'm mistiming anything and yet I'm flying right into them. WTF.

Since the Dante and Sparda costumes are already in by default; the Kagami, Demetri and generic desaturated palettes were all that were needed for all of Vergil's decent palette swaps to be playable.


The textures are here if anyone wants them.

That's why you add multiple bosses, man. :p

It's a little disappointing that they didn't do that with LDK's bosses this time - it's been 7 years and they still won't let us recreate the double Credo video in the regular game. Along with Lucia and questionable product placement, it's the last thing left which should be brought back from DMC2.

Anyone know how to unlock super vergil? I'm assuming beat vergil must die is how but just wanted to confirm.

Also, Vergil's new summoned sword rainfall might be my favorite ranged attack in all character action, it looks SO COOL and has such amazing uses.
 
I wonder if we could ask Capcom if they could release mod tools for DMC4:SE.... Because I wonder how long it will take for GMD to appear for this version of the game. Unless Capcom plans to release DMC4:SE dlc add ons...

Is it my idea or is the Steam card drop rate for this game ridiculously low?

A question to anyone who's beaten Lady campaign on PC, how's the framerate on the ending cutscene? For some reason, it tops at 35fps for me and it's the only part of the game which does this.

So, I beat the normal campaign on Devil Hunter, doing a duel run right now with Vergil on Son of Sparta and Lady/Trish on Dark Knight, since someone mentioned earlier that they were comparable as far as difficulty goes. Got to be honest, I am really not enjoying playing as Vergil so much. Might just take awhile to break in and all or maybe I just don't 'get it", but I don't know, just can't really seem to get into the groove of fighting with him. Feels...I don't know, just doesn't feel as fluid to me personally.

I like playing as Lady so far, though, and holy shit at the amount of enemies in Legendary Dark Knight. My god, it's fucking nuts.

I'm not really sure what they could add that wouldn't be implemented better in the inevitable sequel, but I'd be down for this. As it stands now, the game has low replay value aside from the playable characters, and the campaign really hasn't gotten any better with age. I doubt the DLC will go any farther than the microtransactions.

I talked with a Capcom employee regarding mod tools about MT Framework games in general, and he said it was very unlikely this would happen. There's plenty of things which are possible without official modding tools though.
 
Yeah, this port is all over the place. I was able to reduce the stuttering by putting the game in fullscreen mode, but it still happens occasionally. The fact that XSplit doesn't work with it is really weird too. I hope they come out and say when/if a patch is coming, because I haven't felt too inclined to play it in its current state.

Vergil looks great in the Demtri colors. I hope we'll see much more.

Is there a dedicated place for all these mods?

Is Vergil doing a Judgment Cut part of a certain combo? I think he had a distinct voice clip and did it instantly when I wasn't charging, so I assume it's some kind Motivation-specific combo.

Almost every normal of Vergil's Yamato can be canceled into an insta-Judgment Cut with a just frame charge. The charge is very brief, so you may not have realized you were doing it.

Finally got through Lady's section, and now I have Trish.

I am really regretting playing SoS here. I am so completely unused to trish or even a melee heavy fighter, that you essentially get 1 room to try to get used to her, and then you're thrown into the exploding headquarters bit, and the first part of it is you being stuck in a cage with a bunch of frosts and megadollguys.

Between the tight space, all the lightning effects, and me not knowing what how to handle Trish...

I miss Lady already. She'd just bomb the fuck out of everything in that cage.

Edit: You know, I remember how they had an explanation that Dante can fire his guns repeatedly because his bullets aren't actual bullets and are actually his demon energy materialized or whatever. I don't remember if that's the canon explanation or just something fans came up with.

How do we even begin to explain the shit Lady gets away with? Aside from the infinite ammo, her DT move is to throw explosives like 5 feet around her in a circle and detonate them. Somehow, she survives this without a scratch. Not that DMC ever made sense in this regard, but Lady takes it to a whole new level of "How do you even..."
 
I started the game on dark knight mode, is SoS harder then this? I'm finding this mode a pretty good challenge and wondering if SoS is going to keep ramping up till I hit DMD mode.

Also does unlocking a difficulty for one character unlock it for another?

Yes to all questions.
