Press and hold the left stick, then tap [] at the correct time?
You're using "broken" here in a way that makes me think you don't know what that word means
Maybe I was just overly tired when I played it last night, but does anyone else think the camera is kind of shit? It seemed like it was pulled in a bit to close, especially when you're locked on to an enemy.
Someone here must be able to answer this.
I was trying to push towards the attacker and press [] simultaneously, but being able to hold towards and then tap [] at the right moment would make it much simpler.
When I launched an enemy into the air, jumped after him and cut him to pieces mid-air I knew that I need this game.
btw. Is there a way to counter enemy attacks? I remember some video in which Raiden grapped some gekko's leg.
Hm, you're probably right. Can't find it in any of the trailers. With the quick cuts during the trailers I might have just imagined that he had grabbed it by the leg while in fact it was just the tether.I don't recall any leg-grabbing, but if the Gekko tethers you, you counter by swinging it around. Is that maybe what you're thinking of?
You can use it right when a gekko does the longest wind up for an attack to no consequence.You're using "broken" here in a way that makes me think you don't know what that word means.

Probably won't be up for XBLSilver for another week, but I bet it's up on PSNfree day one.
Really starting to hate MS' greed and ransom practices.
This game, man. THIS GAME.
That final fight, that music... that adrenaline... Perfect!
Just 2 questions:
- How does one succesfully dodge/parry? Combat tutorial kept saying left stick + square, but that was a little vague

Disappointed with the demo to be honest. Having the right stick and attack button for parrying seems clumsy. Camera is horrendous, offscreen attacks, easy enemies except for that boss which requires slight effort etc just bummed me out. Will get it sometime down the line when it is cheap.
Isn't it left stick + button to counter? Or maybe that's why I did so terrible at it.
Sorry yeah I meant left stick.Isn't it left stick + button to counter? Or maybe that's why I did so terrible at it.
They should just make one thing... to get S rank you shouldn't cut everyone in 100 pieces... just kill them with a single clean cut trough the core.
Sorry yeah I meant left stick.
Your ranking being tied to how many pieces you cut is just...meh. It's like your ranking in DMC3 being ranked to how many red orbs you find. It's bullshit.
Yeah, load times are great. Hardly ever seems to dip below 60 fps during gameplay, either. The only drop I distinctly noticed was during a codec conversation where you can't do anything but turn the camera and walk for 30 seconds, anyway. (Thankfully there is only one forced codec conversation of this sort in the demo.)Peeps haven't mentioned but the loading times are really, really short. So good.

Well...this demo just kinda sucked all my hype out. :/

The fact that there's a tutorial and yet they fail to explain how to actually play the game is a mistake. I think it might be deeper than it actual appears, but there's a lot you have to go through to figure that out.
LISTEN TO THIS MAN
What are we supposed to use then? Are we changing the control scheme or is there a "trick" to not using the right stick to chop?

Tried to match most frames up. Game looks pretty identical.
Manual slicing is imprecise with either stick, frankly it becomes an annoyance. Aim and mash square/triangle and hope for the best.
