It was my #1 game of 2013. Screw The Last of Us; this is how you make a fun game.
FWIW, I'm injecting SMAA and SweetFX with RadeonPro and it works fine.

Ok so I was playing the first level, having a good time and the game just kicked me back to the desktop. Is this related to the internet bug because my computer is hooked up to the net via powerline and its been dropping my connection at random times.
Man, played through the first two missions. I forgot how much I freaking love this game (though, it was after all 2nd on my GOTY list right after Wonderful 101).
That GRAD fight that took me hours to try to beat the first time around only took 3 min this time, hahaha. I guess it was that battle that really forced me to 'master' parry and evade (and when to use which)
1080p/60fps, definitive version! It's a perfect port performance-wise for me <3 <3

It's still a little bit blurry when I set it to enhance the ingame AA. Runs at 50ish FPS with 8x SGSSAA on a 780 though, really nice.
Set the negative LOD to -.500 for 2x, -1.000 for 4x and -1.500 for 8x.
i didn't use them much but heard they're much better after you upgrade them.
Where does the time go! I didn't realize how late it got 
Will have to finish tomorrow and I have a looong work day tomorrow.
I found them useful for leading into aerial attacks. But yeah the polearm or whatever seems to be more useful in more situations since it seems to be great in crowds.

Those are probably my most hated regular enemy in the game. You eventually get some weapons/subweapons that help deal with them, but they can still be really annoying
Sai and pulse grenades help a lot
They're incredibly useful for certain enemies
Also relating to people talking about enemies appearing where they possibly didn't before, it's been a while but i've never seen this dude spawn over here - http://abload.de/img/235460_2014-01-10_0006iseu.png
They can be useful against certain enemy types like GRADs, and they have other utility like letting Raiden travel long distances with the pull, but ultimately they are one of the weaker subweapons.

They are pretty OP against some enemies actually.
All of the boss weapons you get have their uses, you just need to experiment on the different enemy types. Especially when they're fully upgraded.

started this up on hard... finally kicked the metal gear's ass.
combat is a bit... interesting? maybe i should drop to normal, it feels like raiden's basic combos barely do any damage :/
and how do you hit the head of that metal gear? It has a target on it so i assume you can wack it.

Did they change the name of the S Rank Revengeance achievement? I remember it being Lightning God
With that fight just parry all of its physical attacks for massive damage

Yeah, they did, they patched it on consoles too -- around when I think the first DLC came out? So it's not exactly new.

you can parry those? fuuuuck was just wackin on the feet in blade mode T.T
Me too. I just finished x-men origins: Wolverine this week and that game built some bad habits with parrying. My execution sucks too but man this game makes me feel like a badass.
Hey guys, thinking about picking this up from Nuuvem... One question: What is the process, preferably in a step-by-step order for ordering and redeeming on Steam? I figure since there are regional differences and whathaveyou that I would need to mask my IP or something.. correct? Never bought from them before...
I figure since my question pertains to how to acquire this game, it could pertain to the thread. But I can redirect myself over to the Steam thread if I need to.

you can parry a ton of shit in the game. it's pretty fun.
I don't think its an HDMI problem, but your monitor/TV.
Modern gaming has made us weak.
Time for REVENGENCE.

Like a few other people, I'm reliving the first playthough through your commentary. I had no idea that you'd be into a game like MGR, and now I really want to see where in your top 5 it'll be after the main campaign is done.
I'm tempted to get through my copy in one shot (finally with Gray Fox armor now), even though I'm in the middle of another game now.
Blade mode itself doesn't really do more damage than Raiden's regular combos. In fact, I believe it does far less. Its purpose is to cut enemies' limbs off when they're weaker (glowing green) or kill enemies straight away for a Zandatsu, but it's not a damage dealer.
As a general rule, if an enemy flashes red, you can parry. If they flash orange, it's unblockable (usually a throw). Raiden can't parry beams or explosives, but he can parry bullets.

I'd hope that if anything more games in the future go with rendering all cutscenes in-engine and in realtime, but with the size of physical media on consoles now I'm not expecting anything but more like this as far as multiplats go at least. It's certainly annoying having to download video files that end up being ten times the size of the game data itself though, especially given that they're only there to be skipped after the first viewing.

Is wonderful 101 anywhere near as good as this? This is turning out to be one of my favorite games of all time.

I stopped playing before the DLC came out so I didn't know. This new name is lame as shit.
Parry the stomp from both feet then parry the tail (this gives an achievement). It's pretty much dead after that
It's actually pretty damn good numbers for a character action game.
Peak for DmC: 5731
Peak for Darksiders 2: 8745
Peak for MGR: 12205
And the thing is, PC versions of DmC and Darksiders 2 were released close to or alongside the console version.

It's better.
W101 and MGR are in my top 10 of last year, but W101 easily outclassed it.
It's honestly not a surprise to me, I've made no secret that Bayonetta and Vanquish are easily two of my favorite games of last generation.
Just found a silver item box that gave me Endurance +1, are these on every level?
I agree. The few issues we actually have will most likely be fixed.

Shit, play Bayo. Way crazier than MGR

Better, actually, would you believe
They are. Stunned the hell out of everything on the PS3 version.
Anyway after hours of slashing:
Radeon 6870
Phenom II X4 955
4GB Ram
1920x1080 (with black bars on my monitor via HDMI unfortunately)
All settings maxed except for AA (left that at its default)
60FPS the majority of the time, with the only noticeable framedrops being blade mode attacks (drops to about 50-55 or so with tons of debris).
Im happy with the performance so far, but was the black bar issue confirmed to have something to do with specific monitors and HDMI? Doesnt show up on screenshots either.
There's one in every mission except the prologue and one other, I believe.

LOD bias fixes texture blur, but not overall image / geometry blur. The latest drivers also have automatic LOD adjustment with SGSSAA.
I ended up fixing it for the most part with this AA compatibility bit: 0x084012C1
The UI has occasional distortion with the AA compatibility turned on though.
It does nothing at all? Like Raiden just stands still? That's odd. He should be doing a short hop and slash. It's available as soon as you buy it.
I think you have to turn it on? II forget...its been awhile and I havent spent my BP yet.

Up to the
So far, the game is really fun. But the numerous technical issues really need to be addressed
1080p and 60fps was expected (and dissapointing).
but:
1. 60hz max makes no sense. Because of the cap, I can't get lightboost working
2. Window mode is useless because of the bug I mentioned earlier
3. I came across ANOTHER problem. The game minimizes every time I get a windows message but this time in fullscreen. This fucks things up when I snap back into gameplay. Because the game changes my refresh rate when snapping back (from 120hz+lightboost in the desktop to 60hz non light boost) my screen goes dark for about 2-3 seconds. Meanwhile, I get murdered offscreen.
The rest of the port is fine, and I get great performance on my rig.
I hope this turns out to be a learning experience for the companies involved.
Please don't pull a NCBI/From software your on next game Platinum/Konami.
