Post by: patrickula on August 05, 2008, 04:01:14 PM: So NG2 mission mode still isn't safe? Or is it an actual glitched patch that's still out? Good thing my 360 is red ringed, it saved me from this danger 8)

Post by: MCD on August 05, 2008, 04:03:57 PM: mission mode is working, there is even a glitch to get all the achievements without playing it :lol

you need to buy it first though.

the patch causes freezing during cutscenes in the later chapters, there is one in chapter 14 and you can't skip it even if you beat the game already, clearing cache is the only way to get around it.

basically, what demi said.

demi, won't MS reset our gamerscore if we did this?
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: demi on August 05, 2008, 05:56:16 PM: No, that's only for people who use Game Saves and exchange accounts and obvious hacks (unobtainable achievements)

Ah, so no fixes on the slowdown or loading? lame.
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: MCD on August 05, 2008, 06:03:43 PM: no, last i heard the team is still working on it.

they didn't even bother to rollback the update, pretty lame.
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: demi on August 05, 2008, 06:04:16 PM: Maybe NG2 is so perfect they had to break it???????

i cant really say that with a straight face. try it!
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: MCD on August 05, 2008, 06:06:56 PM: yeah, they are trying to give dmc4 a chance.
Title: Re: Tecmo lol

Post by: Jansen on August 05, 2008, 08:47:42 PM: ng2 is far from perfect but it still shits all over dmc4 in the most important area: gameplay.

the only thing you reveal to anyone when say dmc4 is better is that you prefer inferior action games.

or you just suck at them seeing as how easy dmc4 is.

Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: cool breeze on August 05, 2008, 08:52:14 PM: DMC4 wasn't that easy. It was frustrating because of how much damage enemies would soak up, so that made it harder than it should be. I am someone who considers Ninja Gaiden 1, DMC1, and God Hand as the three top tier 3D action games. DMC3 comes close to DMC1, but I still like DMC1 more. NG2 is nowhere near NG1 for me. As much as I think core gameplay is important, just having good core gameplay with shitty levels and enemies ruin it. NG2 had this problem, as did DMC3. Sadly there won't be a God Hand 2, so I don't think that will ever be topped. A true Ninja Gaiden 3 also seems unlikely. Bayonetta could turn out great, so hopefully it does.

Oh, and NG2 is better than DMC4. DMC4 sucked for the most part.

Post by: drohne on August 05, 2008, 08:54:14 PM: wait, the current ng2 patch causes lockups? i was going to start playing it this week, but should i wait for the next patch?
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: demi on August 05, 2008, 08:54:25 PM: I dont think you guys really understand. If Ninja Gaiden was so good, why is Itagaki out on a streetcorner drinking himself into a stupor? He's mental. He's gone. He lost.

either that or play without the patch (clear cache)

your choice.
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: cool breeze on August 05, 2008, 08:57:33 PM: Because Itagaki realized that for every one good game he makes, he has to make one decent game, one awful game, and one boring game.

Post by: Cormacaroni on August 05, 2008, 09:18:40 PM: Is it really surprising that Team Ninja is being half-assed these days? The company is screwing them over, why should they bust their asses right now. Most of them are probably just waiting for other jobs to come along before they get the hell out.

i hope they get out of this shithole asap.

Post by: drohne on August 05, 2008, 11:44:05 PM: i guess i could just decline the patch, but then i'd miss out on leaderboards

:piss tecmo
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: MCD on August 05, 2008, 11:52:23 PM: leaderboards? you call this shit leaderboards?

i beat warrior mode (normal) and forgot to upload my score, and since i was using the auto save method i can't upload it unless i start a new game, i said it's ok, i will do it on mentor.

and so i did, i uploaded my score but something worse happened...

now i can't upload my warrior, mentor and master ninja score if it's lower than my mentor score.

how distinguished mentally-challenged can this be?

Post by: drohne on August 06, 2008, 12:20:44 AM: lame. i guess i'll start tonight -- i'm getting a little tired of sc4
Title: Re: Tecmo lol
Post by: MCD on August 06, 2008, 12:27:26 AM: it's a great game, just don't expect it to be as polished as the first game which is a shame.

as for sc4, i stopped playing it after a fucking lizardman on the 7th floor of that tower beat my 3 characters with ease.

laaaaame.
