Title: Child of Eden
Post by: demi on June 13, 2011, 08:55:37 AM: Gamefly just sent this (from the 10th spot no less, haters owned) to my surprise - so figured I would make a thread on this REZ SEQUEL

Achievements look like Kinect isnt required, so you can do it all with a controller. Is it easier with Kinect? WE WILL FIND OUT

But Ubi will do another batch, no doubt.

Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: Bebpo on June 15, 2011, 03:24:40 AM: The problem with the delayed PS3 release as a multi-platform owner is that I'll wait for the PS3 release and by then the X360 version will have dropped to like $20 vs. PS3 at $50 so I'll just end up buying it on X360. I guess that's a win.

Post by: iconoclast on June 15, 2011, 11:54:34 PM: Played some Rez for the first time a while since I'll be getting this tomorrowish. I almost forgot how slow and long that game is. It definitely would have been a much better game if it were a challenging 30 min arcade style game, but I guess that's not the point. Oh well, I enjoy an artfag game every now and then so I'm sure I'll still like Child of Eden well enough.

Miz does a great job at improving his sequels.

Almost got the gold star on stage 2, only missed one enemy. That stage is easy to do. 5 seems pretty easy as well.

I don't know what's worse, Ubisoft charging $50 for the game, or people defending that price point. If anyone else other then Miziguchi made this game, people would be bitching about it being so short and so expensive.

Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: iconoclast on June 22, 2011, 08:39:32 AM: I am tired of level 1. I always miss an enemy during the final section, so I always wind up with 99% purification. Very annoying.

Whatever though, gold stars should be easy enough. Getting 800k is pretty easy, the hardest part is memorizing each stage so you can kill the enemies before they run away.

edit: Finally got the gold on Matrix. I got 99% on the final section like 6 or 7 times in a row, so once I got 700k score just now, I stopped comboing enemies and just killed everyone as fast as I could. It worked. :)
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: iconoclast on June 22, 2011, 11:01:31 AM: Got the gold stars on Beauty now, that one didn't take long. I still need to play it a few more times to get the rest of the unlockables for Lumi's garden. Guess I'll do stages 4 and 5 tomorrow.

On a side note, the achievement guide on x360a really overrated the difficulty of this game. No way in hell is it a 9/10... more like a 7. Maybe 8 depending on how hard Hard mode is (I haven't tried it).
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: demi on June 22, 2011, 11:07:41 AM: Yea it's just hard because nobody knew how to get 100% - when people figure everything out it will be cake.

Post by: demi on June 23, 2011, 09:39:04 PM: Wow I did pretty awful my first run. Only 3 stars. What did you do to get a high score, iconoclast? Is there a good method to keeping the beat for octalocks?
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: iconoclast on June 23, 2011, 09:43:47 PM: You'll get used to it after a while. Just count 1-2-3-4 in your head along with the beat, and tap your foot or something to help keep the rhythm. I only got 300-500k scores on each stage the first time I went through the game, but once you get used to the timing, it's pretty easy to stay in sync with it.
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: demi on June 23, 2011, 09:47:39 PM: word. it doesnt seem hard at all to gold star, just gotta get that nice run going. game is crazy though... hot.
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: demi on June 23, 2011, 10:57:44 PM: Damn I got 92% Purify and only 450k still. I'm poo at these Octalocks... trying to Gold Star before moving onto the next stage.

Ok I read some info on Octalocks...

You can kill enemies in-between and not lose your rank, or if you need to shoot away some purple / bullets. You only lose the multi when you screw up the Octalock beat. I think that's what was throwing me off. I assumed I kept losing my multi when I didnt hit 8.

Also need to learn how long an enemy hangs around before disappearing... so I can take my time to get the beat.
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: iconoclast on June 24, 2011, 03:10:20 PM: Stage 1 was by far the hardest for me to gold star. I just did it on Hard, and while there are some changes, you can mostly use the same strategy.

Some things to know about stage 1:

1. Right at the start of the first section you can miss a wave of enemies if you don't kill the jiggly orange guys fast enough. I think it's the third wave specifically that you need to kill quickly, otherwise the 4th won't spawn.

2. On the section right after, only do 8x octolocks on the giant worm dudes that fly around. When the smaller enemies come flying in, just kill them by rapidly hitting A as fast as you can so they don't fly away.

3. On the section before the mid-boss, you can miss enemies if you don't give them time to spawn from the orange cubes. This was only a problem for me on the third phase though, so just give it a little time so they all come out.

The area after that with the walls is easy to do.

4. On the next area, the one that leads into the boss, it's easy to miss the small flying enemies as they spawn out of the spheres that you have to destroy. It's usually the third sphere where I would miss the enemies, but I found that if you kill the two that come out on the right side quickly, you can take out the other 3 that went to the left before they run away. And then 3 more (IIRC) will fly in, so just kill them as they come in. Then you need to kill the giant worm that's flying around, because if you don't do that fast enough, one of the purple worms won't spawn from the bottom sphere. There should be 2 of them. And then the rest is straight forward.

And when going for gold stars, just aim for 700k score because if you save the 3 bombs, you'll get 100k bonus at the end. If you find yourself ahead on points, you can use a bomb to clear out enemies before they escape, but having two bombs at the end only gives you 50k bonus, so it costs you a decent chunk of points.

Post by: demi on June 24, 2011, 04:01:16 PM: Yeah what was throwing me off was that, I thought if I did like a "1" shot, I would lose my multi, so I kept trying to come up with an Octalock, then the enemiees would fly away and I'd be screwed. It's ok though, I'll focus on octalocks when I know I can come up with them.

There are videos on YT for getting 100% so it's not so bad.

Post by: demi on June 24, 2011, 06:37:34 PM: I wish I knew what was a good "score" to have at specific waves, and what enemies don't run away after X time. Someone needs to hurry up and make a scoring guide.
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: iconoclast on June 24, 2011, 06:48:14 PM: About to gold star all of Hard... I've only got the last level left, but I messed up and let an enemy run away during the 3rd phase or whatever. So annoying.

I'm not sure about score at specific waves, but most of the bosses are worth a shit load of points, so keep that in mind. The stage 2 boss gives ~250k I believe, the boss on stage 3 gives ~350k, the stage 4 boss is worth 200k or so, and the final boss gives another 300-350k. Stage 1 I don't really remember.

Post by: demi on June 24, 2011, 07:02:08 PM: Is there any places you can milk? For example, the mid-boss. Can I chill back and milk the little fish, and leave the 3 orbs sitting there? I mean, there's gotta be some extra points somewhere. Dudes have 1.3 million, and I'm having trouble cracking 800.
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: iconoclast on June 24, 2011, 07:38:36 PM: I think the only place that you can milk a little (like 50k worth maybe) is the first area of stage 5. That's the only milkable spot in the game AFAIK.

People who get 1 million+ are just comboing the entire stage, octolocking almost every enemy and never dropping their combo. I got 1 million on stage 1 and I still stopped every now and then to rapid fire enemies before they escaped (and I only got 91% purification lol).

But anyway, I finally gold starred the last level. That was actually the hardest this time around, because I actually died a few times toward the end. That was really annoying. I'll probably clean up the last achievements tomorrow for the 1000/1000. Gonna go play Shadows of the Damned now.

Post by: demi on June 25, 2011, 12:02:53 AM: The 2nd level is soooo much easier. I still fucked up though, didnt get 800. I gotta milk those fish quicker.
Title: Re: Child of Eden
Post by: demi on June 25, 2011, 11:44:20 AM: This is taking me way too long... I dunno how I am barely just getting past 800. Would be easier if there was some sort of visual referenc to the beat. Maybe the reticule would thump.

Post by: iconoclast on June 25, 2011, 02:25:11 PM: Cleared the Hope archive, woo. That level is kinda tough, but after practicing for an hour or two it's not so bad. Just gotta memorize the tricky parts.

I'm still missing two achievements - one for collecting all of the shit for Lumi's garden, and another 20 pt achievement. Not sure what that one is, gonna have to look it up.

Post by: cool breeze on September 05, 2011, 12:36:17 AM: I liked the game but thought Rez is better. Music was better in Rez. Child of Eden level 4 was probably the best.

random thing: I play rez with inverted controls, but this with regular controls. the third person character on screen messes with my brain.

Doesn't help that Gamestop clearanced it. Isn't there a port of House of the Dead Overkill coming?

Child of Eden is probably the last Move game I'm getting.

Post by: cool breeze on September 24, 2011, 12:24:33 PM: they're hardly mentioning the move support. this is the PS3 trailer for Child of Eden:

[youtube=560,345]ZxH-HbvF01M[/youtube]

only way to tell is by dumb logo at the end. I remember kinect was integral to showcasing the game before it came out.

I have it on 360 and it plays great with the 360 pad. Apparently the game is easier if you play on Kinect, so maybe that will carry through to the Move controls.
