Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | October 2013 | Ver 2000, Batman and some Angry Birds

He means level 56. We tried it several times and a high level player told us we have to keep one of the giant bugs alive til the end.
We did it and the mission still didn't clear. It was hard enough running away from one of them.
 
Never heard of 55 not being completable...one of the missions has a bug where sometimes a spawn check fails to trigger but 55 isn't it...

I think it's 55 -- there's a bunch of yellow cocoons on the ground that spawn white/gold ants and about 3 giant flies.

Nampad, myself, and some randoms beat the level about 6 times. We tried leaving a giant fly for the last enemy, we tried killing them all first... and yet, we're still unable to pass it. :(

I was not a fan of being the bait, ser. :P

Edit: I just played it solo and there were waves of black/red ants interspersed in the mission that did NOT show up online. WTF.
 
Sure. But their internal analysis would go this way:

1. Ohhh, this sold far better than expected.
2. It means our fans are on smartphones.
3. Let's ditch Vita since we hate it anyways and make Type-0 HD smartphone exclusive.

"Since noone is making a game for the Vita, I thought I'd do it. I like the Vita."
(non-verbatim)

This is what the Chaos Rings producer/director (can't remember) said in an interview with Famitsu some months ago on the PSM release of Chaos Rings. I'd always assumed that when he said "noone", he meant "noone in Square Enix".

Don't expect a Vita game from Square Enix until PS3 "dies". Then maybe Vita would get more ports.

I'd personally want a Type-1, but close your eyes and pretend Square Enix doesn't exist anymore.

Even if Agito is downloaded millions of times, is imposible to see if Type-0 could be succesful there. Agito is F2P, Type-0 would be prices like other "premium" games for S-E (FF, Chrono Trigger, Deus Ex iOS) it means 10-20 euros.

And I don't know if the crow they are chasing with Agito will spend that much money with the game. Or even worse. It could hurt their stamina bar system (i suppose they'll use that, like most f2p games there) having Type-0. You could just play until the free pils vanish, and then go to Type-0 until they are restored.
 
So, Injustice is sub-native res like MK. BUT higher polycount for character models, and much more shaders and lighting intact from console version compared to MK.

Per Armature's answers to me on Twitter.
Why not native res? :(
Well even if i really liked mk i'm not interested in the game anyway.

Any good news VitaGAF? I need some.

I just came back from that DQ thread and I feel like Square just destroyed my childhood.

Question to people who imported games from outside of their own region.

Do those games still download patches ?

Play asia has dragon crown for 30$ and i'm tempted as that's 40% cheaper than European release price.

Yes, my imported dragon's crown downloads its patches.
 
Ok thx - now only question which remains is does it have regionalised multiplayer.

Regionalised multiplayer...?

Dragon's Crown Vita players in US can play with people in Japan or any other region just fine.

Also, I don't know whether they have fixed it, I assume they have, but it doesn't hurt to know that the Reg 3 Asia Version Retail of DC had problems that make patching impossible. Maybe they have fixed it, but I am not sure.

I don't understand why you feel that way. It only makes the game more accessible to more people. Really no different than the FF games going mobile. Plus it's Square, expect more mobile. If done right it doesn't bother me at all. TWEWY iOS was well made.
 
How did ad hoc look before? I know they updated it for MHP 3rd

Is this image from Soul Sacrifice?
 
Loving Rayman Legends.

I got the Championship trophy out of the way quickly to have some peace of mind. Now i'll focus on enjoying the rest of the game.

The only fix for the broken version of Dragon's Crown (VCAS-34032) is to return it to Sony and get the fixed version. The old version can't be patched.

The new version is on general sale now but beware if you're buying, check the product code.

I don't know if this is true for the retail copies, but when I exchanged my R3 copy of DC, there was a sticker on it that says "remaster version"
 
What is the verdict on the game, btw? Is the vita version good?

I might be being perilously optimistic, but if they've ironed out the slightly problematic camera, the extra content will be gravy on a sound boss-rush brawler I'd like to christen as Otogi bedding Gravity Rush.
 
My vita decided to go mental today. I charged it up before my flight (5 hours - put some serious Killzone time in) but I couldn't turn it on when I got on board.

I charged it at the hotel and it registered as being dead flat. Strange because it was definitely charging before the flight (I checked the icon) and when I took it off charge the battery icon showed it at 100%.

After a charge at the hotel, I turned it on and the touch input was up the shit too. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't... I couldn't open one of my folders and I couldn't progress passed the first menu in Killzone.

I switched the vita off and on again and the issues seemed to go away.

Have any of you experienced these issues?
 
i never thought much of the game when it was released on PSN+ for the PS3. I can't imagine paying money for the vita game when I was so underwhelmed by it before.
 
I would've loved to get Ridge Racer PSP 1, if not for Ridge Racer 4's intro.
...and the fact that RR PSP 2 is the better game but not PSN @_@
 
My Vita's touch screen did become unresponsive once or twice within the first few weeks of me having one (day 1 launch model). But that has never happened since...

Good to know. I've had mine nearly a year now (I think) and it's never missed a beat.
 
Can't wait for Dragons Crown!

EU :'(

The imported version is cheaper though...
£28 vs £35... Do i pay the extra to support EU version? Hmm
I'm not sure I can quote the site, so will leave it out.

Just remember that any future DLC would be incompatible with your PSN ID if you have an EU one. On the other hand, there's been no word on any additional DLC actually coming out.
 
Have any of you experienced these issues?

Yes, it's just a software issue with the touchscreen that you have to fix by holding the power button for like 60 seconds to do a hard reset. Unfortunately you will lose your latest batch of unsaved progress, but so far it's only happened to me once in like a month of ownership. Good luck!
 
What would be the best website to import a japanese Vita TV to Switzerland? I've ordered from Play-Asia once and didn't have many worries, but they're a bit expensive and only have the DS3 bundle available. Are there any other good sites?

I'd serious suggest to wait. We don't know how imported Vita TV will behave with non japanise account.

Unless you are #YOLO type of guy ;)

Oh, I am :)

Nah, I'm not entirely sure I will pre-order yet, as my budget is a bit limited betwen PS4 and some fall releases across all platforms. I'm really interested though and was just looking for a site in case I suddenly decide I want to bite.

And honestly I doubt there will be any problems with non-JP accounts.

If you get hold of one, would love to hear about your impressions!

On Japanese Vitas... Can you change language to English?

Depends on the framerate issues and if they still exist. Hard to tell from YT videos because of the game's animation style being "floaty" in the first place.

i never thought much of the game when it was released on PSN+ for the PS3. I can't imagine paying money for the vita game when I was so underwhelmed by it before.

Simple solution then. Don't pay money for it. ;)
If they want $15 for it and it still has framerate hiccups? Hell no.
But if they do $10 with a PS+ discount of some sort and reports are that the game's technical issues are less apparent? I'd bite.

Probably gonna wait on a discount here. I never made enough progress with the PS3 version, but I enjoyed what I played of it. It does seem like a good fit.

Maybe -- Not sure how I feel about an action game requiring touchscreen buttons... but I haven't played the game enough to know how much I would use fly/dive and I haven't experienced it firsthand on a Vita either... some games manage the touch screen buttons fine... it's just hard to imagine using them well in a game where it's as frantic as Malcious is.

Just remember that any future DLC would be incompatible with your PSN ID if you have an EU one. On the other hand, there's been no word on any additional DLC actually coming out.

The only DLC for Dragon's Crown was that narrator unlock. No other DLC has been announced or rumoured to my knowledge. Combine this with the "promised" DLC for Muramasa that hasn't seen the light of day and I'm pretty sure that Dragon's Crown DLC is pretty much not going to happen.

Is someone doing a Malicious Rebirth OT?
I could throw something together tomorrow if nobody else will (if we even need one).

You probably don't need one -- or maybe there was one when it released in NA?

Excellent point.

EU it is!

See my above comments in regards to DLC for Dragon's Crown.

with the amount of content and hardware coming out in the next two months there's no way I would.

i wasn't necessarily trying to talk anyone out of purchasing the game if they knew they'd like it. with my personal experience with the title it seems like a no-brainer.

on an unrelated note, deactivating all machines remotely from my PSN account and adding my son's vita to mine worked beautifully. he was super-excited to play Playstation All-Stars on my team.

He rarely touched the game when he had contact with my vita previously. He also liked the chat on ad-hoc. i imagine it would be like old walkie-talkies but also playing a real game at the same time
 
Anyone picking up Worms? Big fan of the series, but not sure about dropping $15 on a game I already have on multiple systems.
 
Woah, is this confirmed for vita? Sry, on mobile...

I am seriously considering picking up 3.

Yes, IIRC it was announced together with criminal girls invitation and the localizations of demon gaze, daganronpa and sorcery saga.
