This will stop working on higher difficulties.

Hell, it will stop working by Monsoon.

Watching that video really helps. For instance, didn't realize you could activate blade mode during the cinematic parry counters.

 

[d0c_zaius]

I have a Samsung SyncMaster SA550 + Panasonic Viera PY85. Both 1080p/60Hz, both screens showing the same stuff.

ok so bravia and samsungs are known to have this 24 lock issue. I wound up trying all sorts of custom resolutions (game just crashed), tried changing the timing of the refresh rate (nothing), and windowed 1080p is unable to be resized.

So I wound up using windowed borderless gaming and am setting for 720 just so I can play at a good FPS. Prayers to plat for some fixes!

 

[Mohasus]

I had to do this in nVidia control panel to fix the framerate:

 

[PHOTOSHOP]

is that video spoilers free though?

 

[BY2K]

Game's fun as fuck. The music for fights is awesome.

I've encountered some funny bug with objects, though; they rotate, sometimes while slightly floating as well.

Also, WHY IS THE MOUSE CURSOR PRESENT IN MENUS WHEN USING CONTROLLER AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. They need to fix that. It bugs the hell out of me.

Also:

It's beautiful.

What framerate were you getting before this?

when the game slows down, it's time to go blade.
And also when the kanji appears.

 

[d0c_zaius]

I was having the 24 Hz problem in fullscreen and managed to fix it by editing a value in memory (02DB2618) to force 60 Hz. Not a proper fix but it works if you want to go that route.

any chance you could explain how do to this in noob speak?

I just tried Mohasus fix again and once I went to fullscreen, locked 24fps.

 

[mnz]

Is there a leaderboard somewhere in the game? Has to be, right?

that's my boy.


BTW: fuck sake, the game doesn't start I saw other prople with this problem but no solution.
deleted and redownloading -_-

You never have to do that in Steam, just go to properties and do "Verify integrity of game cache".

 

[Chance Hale]

So, anyone else's left DS4 analogue stick cover now totally torn up?

 

[zainetor]

I did, but nothing changed.
maybe it has something to do with the preload...Since I started downloading before it was released.

 

[Mohasus]

24.

 

[BY2K]

24.

Seems to me AMD cards don't have that problem. Am I wrong?

 

[KingGiddra]

There is a lock-on system, but I wouldn't say it "solves" the camera problems.

I'm using Type B, because I like flicking the Left analog stick to use the sword in Blade Mode, and Lock-On is Right Bumper/R1.

You actually made this game playable. I died on the wolf-boss thing for half an hour. Finally checked the controls and lock-on is mapped to RB.

It's still pretty difficult and I can't seem to understand when exactly you can and can't eat spines.

 

[RK9039]

24.

Oh.

I'm getting 50fps for some reason, even if I put some of the settings down, says so on fraps. Strange.

 

[Mesoian]

I'm streaming right now.

This thing runs like shit. I'm at 24fps when my rig can chew up Crysis 3.

 

[aravuus]

Not just yet, but the weekend is only starting lol

This game is fucking incredible. Quite easily the most enjoyable hack n slash game I've played, probably even beats God of War for me and I just LOVE the ridiculous over the top craziness, it's just insane! I really need to give Bayonetta another try soon, wish they'd port that to PC too

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Wow, I'm shocked at how popular this seemingly has become, Konami better bloody take attention to this.

We want more Platinum and Metal Gear games on Steam Konami!

 

[greycolumbus]

I'm on AMD and haven't noticed a problem.

Basically you just have to parry everything he does and punish him when you activate a parry counter

edit - misunderstood what you meant by spines, thought you meant the daggers he throws out. You can zandatsu and pull a spine whenever a humanoid enemy has a orange flash exploding out of them when you do enough damage, or when you slide attack them, and possibly other times but I can't remember. Also on gekkos and other enemies it'll be a QTE whenever you do enough damage or parry counter or whatever.

 

[d0c_zaius]

What framerate were you getting before this?

24.

you verified this works fullscreen regardless of resolutions? What monitor are you using?

Cause I did exactly what you did and still am locked at 24.

 

[mnz]

Yes, I have it with AMD.
It seems to be some kind of handshake problem with the monitor.

 

[Levyne]

I'm pretty bad at aiming the blade mode slice so when I want the spine or whatever I just find myself spamming the vertical/horizontal while moving the camera slightly, haha.

slide+y, He falls and you can beat the shit out of him.

Just keep practicing! Doing it manually will be important later on.

 

[ZeroRay]

Not sure if posted, but Chip Cheezum posted a video on how to play the game for newcomers:

[Mohasus]

Yeah, the problem was only the framerate when running at 1080p.

It is a Samsung TV LN40C550, my GPU is a GTX660.

 

[Tain]

can you even imagine Ninja Gaiden Black on PC?

 

[kamspy]

When I set the game to 1080p fullscreen my TV says it's 720p60.

When I set it to the next lowest res 1600 x whatever, my TV says it's 1080p30

wtf

 

[Teknoman]

So the black bars + low refresh rate at full screen when using HDMI is definitely an AMD driver issue?

 

[epmode]

can you even imagine Ninja Gaiden Black on PC?

You're turning me on.

 

[d0c_zaius]

Yeah, the problem was only the framerate when running at 1080p.

hmm yours is the first samsung I've heard to work properly. I'll probably be PM'ing you with some questions.

 

[matrix-cat]

Game's working perfectly for me. Fullscreen 1080p60 with no issues, although the cutscenes can get a bit stuttery (I'm on a 3570k, 670 GTX and 8GB of RAM). Just RULES OF NATURE'd Ray and I'm loving everything so far, though I hope someone manages to remove the 60FPS limit soon. My monitor has an extra 84Hz that aren't being utilised.

 

[AcceptableGhost]

yes i can

 

[kamspy]

Nvidia here. 680 gtx

 

[Valnen]

No, I'm on Nvidia and I'm stuck with 50hz. I'm using HDMI as it's all my monitor supports.

 

[Rickenslacker]

[BIG FRIEND LIST O MGR FUN]

It's beautiful.

I'm disappointed in myself for being immortalized as playing CS:GO and not joining in on the fun. I'll get it eventually, really jonesin' for a replay.

 

[Guess Who]

I'm pretty bad at aiming the blade mode slice so when I want the spine or whatever I just find myself spamming the vertical/horizontal while moving the camera slightly, haha.

This will become a huge problem for you in later boss fights where you have to make more precise cuts.

 

[ColonelSkills]

Yeah, 24p problem here too. GTX 780 on a Bravia. Anyone with a similar television able to post what fix worked? The custom res in the nVidia display fix didn't.

 

[Cannon Goose]

Raiden was wearing a poncho and a sombrero.

This game.

This gaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!

Spoiler

I really wish he'd kept it on once he got in the sewer.

 

[toastyToast]

Game is running at 50fps. How do I fix that?

Managed to finish the prologue anyway RULES OF NATURE. Forgot how insane this game is

 

[~Kinggi~]

Well aside from the fact i cant get past 1680x1050 on my 1080p TV, this game is pretty awesome. Taking down the first Gear melted my mind at 60 fps

 

[Tobe]

hope somebody tell how to use offensive defense, the game tells me to press Z or F dont remember but playing in pad. no instructions on how to use it. also whats up with the super low res example of the moves?

 

[Guess Who]

It's an unlockable costume.

 

[Valnen]

Only two known ways right now, make a custom resolution (this will make your game blurry) or get a program called WindowedBorderlessGaming and run in a window. Neither are ideal. Platinum themselves needs to fix this. Now.

 

[InfiniteNine]

On a pad it's X and A so it should probably be a a two buttoner on the keyboard.
EDIT: Just tried it and it's Z and F not Z or F.

 

[d0c_zaius]

Yeah, 24p problem here too. GTX 780 on a Bravia. Anyone with a similar television able to post what fix worked? The custom res in the nVidia display fix didn't.

] bummer

you'll prob have to set it to 720 and run windowed bordless gaming app like I am until they address it properly.

 

[Gbraga]

Yeah, 24p problem here too. GTX 780 on a Bravia. Anyone with a similar television able to post what fix worked? The custom res in the nVidia display fix didn't.

Have you set your desktop res with the custom one you created before launching the game? That's what's required.

You don't have to go 1920x1080 59hz either, you can make a higher res like 2560x1440 60hz and select it as your desktop resolution, and the game will run at 1080p 60hz too.

 

[Teknoman]

No, I'm on Nvidia and I'm stuck with 50hz. I'm using HDMI as it's all my monitor supports.

Hmm... so then its an HDMI issue with the game?

http://steamcommunity.com/app/235460/discussions/0/630802344135931796/#p1

Then there are these guys with the HDMI issue using AMD as well. Has Platinum Rep commented? I really dont want to have to go digging for wherever I put that DVI cable.
