How the fuck am I meant to take down five enemies with a single Devil's Kiss? Seems near impossible, and it's such a pain in the ass to play through twelve waves just to get back to retry it
I went through 14 waves of that map, only to have the game freeze up on me. Because they decided not to implement autosave either I lost everything I'd spent the last hour building up. Not happy.

I swear I got this, but maybe I didn't
Equipping the chaining gear (Storm) doesn't affect it, right?At least this strategy seems a lot more sound. It's just annoying having to repeat the waves

Charged up, softened them up, threw one Devil's Kiss without a charge.
Wiped out six of the enemies. No blue ribbon unlocked

Yeah in my experience the blue ribbon unlocks are definitely a little wonky.

Well I got it! Thank you so much for that strategy Lima, it is such a clever way to do it - they're already bunched in such a small area it seems fool proof.
I had to remove all my gear (incuding Storm) but it worked for me. Charged up, circled around shooting randomly, and then threw a Devil's Kiss in the middle. Worked a treat.
Now just five or so more to go across Raven's Dome and Emporia

I finally finished CitC by getting all the ribbons, it was a fun distraction.
I think I'm ranked like 27th for the world wide score.
The waves that gave me the most trouble were D&D wave 13, and both the decoy ones on Ravens dome and Emporia.
And the Easter egg after finishing all the stages was pretty cool.

I'm attempting my final run now - Emporia Arcade.
Anyone got tips for Waves 7, 11, 13 or 14?
For reference: -
7.) Defeat two enemies with the fireman's suicide explosion
11.) Defeat all enemies while they are distracted by a Booker tear decoy [Two Handymen]
13.) Defeat enemies with the same weapons that they are wielding
14.) Defeat the handyman with a Motorized patriot tear

Naw but unless you have a life saved up your score resets

Hope that helps!
7.) Make good use of undertow. Run around the map and try to get both a soldier and a fireman with the undertow pull by holding down LT. Weaken the fireman. Put crows or shock jockey on them so they don't move. You either get two with one explosion if you are lucky or you look for another fireman and regular enemy. You don't need to kill two enemies with a single fireman explosion.
11.)
Weaken both Handymen until they have almost no health left. Now you could run around the map until one Handyman kills the other with friendly fire to make it easier. Now use the decoy tear and wait for the handyman to approach it. Put crows on him before he gets there to destroy it. Now shoot him.
13.)
Buy a door before starting. Bring the shotgun and the machine gun. Make good use of Return to Sender blue shield by just clicking LT. Always have it up. Kill the shotgun dudes that rush you. Leave the pistol ladies alone. Wait till the other ships come in. Once you killed all shotgun dudes, die. Now once you are in the revival room don't exit the door. Wait there. The enemies with pistols will drop from the ships and die. Go out if the enemy number stays the same and kill the last guys with the machine gun.
14.)
Real easy. Just use Undertow pull and fire at his heart until he has almost no health left and bring in the patriot tear on the ship.
I am a bit too.
As much as I loved rapture, I've already had two games and solid DLC set in rapture.
Is there any plans for any DLC beyond what's been mentioned?
I would of loved a less action orientated alt universe exploration of Columbia with a unique self-contained story that allows me to visit areas that you didn't get a chance too in the main game.
So if you fail the blue ribbon why do they make you re-try from Wave 1 before you can earn the blue ribbon again? :lol Hopefully they patch in the ability to re-try a blue ribbon challenge over and over. Surely there is no logical reason for that punishment...
You don't have to retry from wave 1 if you fail a blue ribbon lol hoe did that happen to you?

Sorry I'm just going off my own assumptions - I haven't played the DLC yet.
After failing a blue ribbon challenge, you would still be permitted to continue playing until you beat every wave, correct? But I thought that if you failed a blue ribbon challenge, you would be locked out of earning that challenge until you retried from Wave 1.

You get one chance to complete the Blue Ribbon challenge. This means if you fuck up the requirements or die then you can respawn (forfeiting your leaderboard ranking) and automatically fail your Blue Ribbon challenge.
Future waves work fine - you can still go for the Blue Ribbon challenge.
You can mitigate the death problem by purchasing a one-time resurrection for $500 (which increases) but even then, if you die more than once you still fail the challenge.
So basically, get it on your first life. If not, you can continue and gather future Ribbon challenges, but must repeat the waves prior to it on a fresh run if you fuck it up.
I hope I explained that properly. >_>

Im really excited about "Burial at Sea". I hope they add a little bit more reward for exploring than they did for Infinite, especially if this is a detective story. I would like there to be some places where exploration is necessary instead of being strung along while the story unfolds.
Alright, I think I understand, and I think what you described is also exactly what I wrote in my previous post. So I think we're all on the same page. =)
It seems like it's an unnecessary and useless punishment, being forced to restart from Wave 1 to have another shot at a specific wave's blue ribbon.
1.) I meant how not hoe* in my last post sry bout that lol
2.)yea my bad you can't redo that ribbon until you start over again
That is not true though. Once you go back to the arena through the resurrection door you can just turn around and buy another one for the same wave. You could even buy a third but then you would have used all doors for just one wave.
Yeah I gotta say, as a person who loved Bioshock Infinite's combat, Clash in the Clouds just isn't that fun. I think it's how the levels are design or something, but I'm just not a fan of it. At least the little unlockable things in the museum are cool.
Can't wait for Burial at Sea though.

Related spoiler to what Ken Levine stated in an IGN interview about BaS:
The interview: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/08/07/how-playing-as-elizabeth-changes-bioshock-infinite
He said that Burial At Sea takes place after what happened in Infinite. But, we know that both her and Booker ceased to exist after it all due to the ending. What i'm wondering is...HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!

Damn, so it's the same Liz.

Some very interesting details regarding gameplay in that interview, I hope they nail it, playing as Liz should indeed be completely different.

That means that
after the events of Infinite she entered a universe were Booker is still alive. Then what they said initially about them not knowing each other isn't true, it's only Booker who doesn't know Liz. I guess this makes sense, going to a universe where her father still exists would be the first thing she'd do.

And about the ending and its context in the DLC:

And about the ending and its context in the DLC:
It's really hard to imagine the same Booker and Elizabeth existing after the ending. It must mean that some alternate reality, she doesn't get rid of Booker but perhaps just so happens to allow him to live since they can't really stop ALL Comstocks. I guess it's understandable too since there's multiple realities and there's always a different thing in each one of them.

Yep. nearly 4 months before the DLC was released.
