My goodness this! Came in just to post my anti-patience post.
Silver user lolFuck your gold only bs Microsoft.
Awesome.The fun thing about the boss is that I found you can actually launch him after a succesful parry. He doesn't really stun, but he will be open for a few hits after the counter slash. Forward+Square will unbalance him and a f,f Square launcher works during this.
Demo was damn good fun. However I'm unsure about how the defensive mechanics work in the game. Not so sure how I feel about the lack of rolling and the parry, seems kind of clunky to dodge attacks with the run. Maybe I just need more practice!
Watching this http://youtu.be/xYGIRVeVY24?t=1m7s is definitely informative though. Can't wait to show some of those moves when I play the demo again.
Blade Mode confuses me. Is there some way to tell when you can instantly kill someone with Blade Mode? Can't you technically just use it all the time and one shot everyone? Or does it not always kill them?

You can just blow up the regular guys with blade mode for free. In fact, fuck doing fancy combos on the first three guys, just abuse blade mode and make sure you get their spines, S-rank

You can see an example of how this plays out later in the game in that really recent gameplay trailer. While fighting the giant robots, Raiden does stinger vs one of them while their armor is still up and nothing happens. After removing the armor later in the fight and hitting them with the same Stinger move, the move now resulted in the blue pause signaling to the player that they can use Blade Mode now on this enemy.
There are two ways to tell:
1. Enemies or limbs of enemies will glow blue when vulnerable to Zandatsu, usually after having been damaged passed a certain threshold
2. Most, if not all of Raiden's special attacks("stinger", "red hot kick", force palm, break dance trip etc) will pause the screen similar to the way Blade Mode does when a Blade Mode follow up is possible on an enemy vulnerable to it.(Blue pause after stealth kill is basically there to let you know you can use Blade Mode now to kill)

Yeah, but this is also arguably the first non tutorial encounter in the game vs what is probably the weakest enemy in the game.
So it should come as no surprise that it's easy

This slide move is TOO good, lol. Big fight with 4 grunts and a gecko, slide into soldier for free, blade move, grab spine. Repeat on other three guys, blocking all their bullets automatically with ninja run. Parry obvious as hell Gecko attacks, mash buttons, QTE mash buttons, S-rank
Oh so the game actually slows down a bit, indicating you can use it. I haven't actually played the game, but watching gameplay made me wonder if you can just cut them up without even damaging them first. I didn't realize the game actually slowed down because the players went into Blade Mode so quickly.
This is disappointing and sadly looks easy to abuse. I'm pretty sure there's a video where all the guy does is slice everyone into a million pieces after that tripping move and earns an S-rank at the end.
I'm going to be pissed if the full version of the game fails to offer some sort of value for players who wish to spend a lot of time with it.
oh my lawdLOL. Now the store is undergoing maintenance.
LOL. Now the store is undergoing maintenance.
Systems Video Explanation from the Konami youtube channel, it shows a bunch of Raiden's moves along with dodging and how to deal with missiles/grenades.
Could we post this on the top of every page or something?
The divekick canceled into stealth kill near the end is amazing
LOL. Now the store is undergoing maintenance.
Here's some slow as shit 360 demo links. Haven't tested them yet. Grace Chen will probably be faster.

Do we know how blade mode is going to work with the alternate weapons yet?
