I'm at the battle with Credo. This game is not as good as DMC3.
Also, what is this horseshit that every time I die on this boss and want to retry, I have to run like 30 seconds through two screens to get there? Haven't we moved past this? Jesus Christ, this is elementary game design. DON'T PUNISH THE PLAYER. If I want to retry, you should start me over at the beginning of the fight. Put the re-spec option on the continue screen, or put the re-spec/purchase statue DIRECTLY BEFORE THE BOSS FIGHT. I don't mean like, '30 seconds and two screens away'. I mean RIGHT FUCKING HERE. And then restart me RIGHT FUCKING NEXT TO IT. THIS IS BASIC SHIT PEOPLE, GET WITH THE MOTHERFUCKING PROGRAM. I understand 30 seconds really isn't very long, but to the player who just died and wants to get back into the fight, it seems like forever.
What's even worse is that I remember fighting Nelo Angelo in the original DMC for like 3 hours in a row on Dante Must Die difficulty. When you restarted, YOU RESTARTED JUST OUTSIDE HIS DOOR. THEY GOT IT RIGHT IN 2001, HOW ARE YOU GUYS FUCKING IT UP NOW.
WTF. Honestly.
-
credo fight rocked
-
Agree. He's a really cool boss with awesome patterns and great attacks. I love that you can use the devil bringer to grab his lances out of mid-air and you get rewarded with green orbs. :D
-
I loved the game, but some of the level design was horribly dated.
-
:piss japanese game design
:american :american
-
God Nero is such a pussy. 'KYRIE KYRIE WAA WAA WAA' :cry is his whole fucking motivation. Dante would never put up with this shit.
-
johnny Yong Bosch rox stfu
-
I have no idea who johnny Yong Bosch is, but I'm going to assume he's the voice actor? I have no problem with the voice actor. It's whoever wrote this character.
-
What the hell is this giant slow-mo spiral staircase of blades bullshit? This is almost GOW1 'climbing the wall of blades' levels of bad. Just horrible.
-
Goddammit this is TERRIBLE >< You can't get any perspective on the goddamn jump you're supposed to make from the top. Fuck this game. It's going back. Good combat system but the level design just fucking kills it. There have been tons of other places where this forced camera angle bullshit was bad, but this is just distinguished mentally-challenged - you just have to get lucky to make this jump.
Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot. Capcom, what were you thinking?
-
yes the voice actor
I too hated that part when you jump over blades in slow mo but I got it after a few tries
its easier if you have the double jump If I remember correctly
-
this game rocks, sounds like we got a noob on our hands
-
devil may cry is boring when you're fighting. I rather have all these cool moves and act badass all the time in front of the camera
-
that doesn't make any sense.
-
I move Dante around in front of the camera with no enemies around and act badass. I walk around slow and jump and take one or two swings with my sword and occassionally pull the guitar out and jam some tunes you know casual badass shit
-
zzz dmc4
playing the game on hard mode and it's easy as fucking shit
devil may fucking sellout
devil may there's nothing deep about this game except combos
-
Agreed. I hardly consider myself a noob after having beat DMC and DMC3 on DMD level.
This game is simply not as good as 1 or 3. That is disappointing.
-
The original is the only one I could ever get into. Barely touched 3, played 4 even less. Same pretty much goes for "rival game" Ninja Gaiden. I'm on stage 3 in Sigma, that's as far as I ever got.
It's also weird that there was no DMC2, isn't it?
-
I must admit that these games are a bit of an acquired taste - either you've been playing action/platforming games for so long that something this hardcore is exactly what you're looking for, or it's not for you. That said, I like the genre.
I played through NG and liked it. Although it had cripplingly bad (controller-breakingly-soul-crushingly bad) camera problems, I suffered through it for the gooey action center. I can't get past DMC4's horrible level design though.

joke post?
-
the game is leagues better than DMC1... are you people nuts - go back and play that again
Nero is the shit

:lol :lol

Have you even played the full game, Himu? I don't even remember you posting in the official thread. I could see how someone would prefer DMC3 over DMC4, but DMC1?! SMH.
-
That's what I'm saying. Nostalgia can be tricky, guys.
-
DMC1 is lousy how? It's actually the DMC with the best game design. Enemies don't just sit there, there is TONS of enemy variety, with awesome attack patterns, it's the HARDEST DMC, the weapns are far more balanced than in DMC3. Normal enemies aren't just GRUNTS and COMBO FODDER for the boss, they actually take, you know, skill to beat.
Yes DMC1 is lousy in comparison if you like style over substance bullshit.
I replayed DMC1 after DMC3 and it held up just fine.
-

I'm playing through it RIGHT NOW.
Combo fodder, boring enemies, lack of variety DMC3 added to the series. WHY THE FUCK CAN'T I PLAY AS DANTE. Nero sucks. Easy as SHIT difficult for fucking poges. Stupid proud soul system. Horrible level design so far, missions 6 and 7 aside.
-
The REAL game doesn't start until DMD. Demi and Drohne will tell that as well
-
Also once you beat the game, try Bloody Palace.
Nero>>>>Dante. I loved the Exceed system and the Devil Bringer.
-
That's fucking stupid. Why should I beat a game on 2 modes to experience the "real" game. Holy shit I've been fighting mostly the same enemies for almost 9 misssions.
Devil may fucking Sellout.
Is there a code like in DMC3 where I can unlock EVERYTHING? Because I want to bump this shit up a notch right now. Fuck this pussy bullshit.
-
How is it a sellout? What does that even mean?
You can play as Dante.
-
In comparison means relative to what I'm talking about, not an absolute value. smh.
Also Nero fucking rocks. Overrev>Switching. People who prefer Dante play games for "story" and "atmosphere."
:lol :lol
Funny when DMC4 is probably the most story oriented DMC yet, and it stars *gasp* Nero.
Get the fuck out of here. Nero fucking sucks. He has like, one weapon, and the same moves since the beginning of the game.
-
Use the extra playthroughs to upgrade your skills and weapons.
-

They dumbed the difficulty down even MORE after DMC3 was easy as hell already.
-
I think Nero is much more focused character gameplay wise. Dante in DMC4 can be a mess with all his styles and weapons.
-
I am 90% sure at this point that NG2 will be a much better action game than DMC4. Capcom has dropped the damn ball.
lol enemies just standing there waiting to be combo fodder. SMH ADD gamers.
-
What stage are you at right now, Himu?
-
This game is so boring. Wow, I'm doing a S and SS style points on enemies over and over this is so fun.
The only redeeming thing about this game are the bosses, which are AWESOME.
mission 9
-
You disabled Automatic right?
-
Sure did! Revving is awesome, I must admit!
-

Does not compute.
-
I think that's supposed to be sarcasm
You're not even halfway yet... mission 9 out of 20, sheesh
-
Have you been S ranking the levels, at least, oh uber-gamer?
-
I'm quite sure the entirety of this forum has seen it, but this (http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/zeropunctuation/3001-Zero-Punctuation-Devil-May-Cry-4) is exactly correct.

wat

decided to play a few more missions last night in my conquest to finally beat the game. and well, the platforming is fucking ass. the only thing keeping me from tossing this into my dust pile is the combat. the credo battle was fun, it's just sad my boner deflated fast when i had to navigate through more confusing corridors and pathways right after the battle. agnus was a letdown considering how bad ass credo was.
10 more missions to go. hope i can make it all the way through. :-\

So is DMC4 more like DMC1 or DMC3? I'm still waiting for DMC4 to land on the PC.
I'm with Himu on DMC1 > DMC3.

Decided to play a couple missions last night, and got a couple more S ranks on Son of Sparda.

DMC4 is easy as shit hyp. let's troll this pos

alright, xbl stalking ACTIVATE: you're at least halfway through the game, and you haven't got a single s-rank yet. even if you're not playing for s ranks, you should have stumbled into a few of them, just by fighting stylishly and not using items!
himumu sucks at dmc :gloomy

huh? this isn't mega man zero
Who wants to go for S ranking when the levels suck anyways? I only go for rankings when the level design owns and I actually get a challenge out doing so. Mega Man Zero series is a prime example. I get nothing out of S rankings in DMC.
-
if you were going through the levels without continuing or using items, you'd have some s-ranks by now -- i wasn't playing for rank on devil hunter, and i got s-ranks on roughly half the levels. and i'm nowhere near as good at dmc as you claim to be. you're free to dislike dmc4, and devil hunter IS too easy, but you've made a HUGE stink about the difficulty when
a. you haven't tried bloody palace or the higher difficulty levels
b. your achievements hardly suggest that you're aceing it
-
because of level design... right
if that isn't admittance

DMC4 is easy as shit
If its so fucking easy you'd nail it without trying. Fuck you Himuro, I'm canceling my GTA4 pre-order. I'm going to get Saints Row 2, Pre-order Wheelman and 2 copies of 50 Cent blood on the sands just to spite your ass.
Hmmm no. It's still easy. Going through an entire level without dying is pretty easy dude. You have to TRY to get hit by normals enemies. That's beyond easy.
-
...but not easy enough for you. between the uninterrupted combos and the no item multiplier, a good player would have at least ONE s rank. if you want to bullshit about your skills, you should probably buy a ps3 or something
-
I'll get some S ranks just for you, Drohne, even though I hate the mission design and don't want to replay these missions.
I don't use items. Hell, I've got THOUSANDS of red orbs. I've gotten tons of S's and a few SS's, so I don't understand why I haven't gotten an S rank yet. It's either my lack of orbs from exploration or my timing.
-
beat my mediocre bloody palace score and you can talk all the shit you want
