Is the presence of a BD in the drive mandatory ?? (i mean even if you updated to 1.01 patch and use multiman latest version 4.20.0.4 that is supposed to improve the discless compatibility ?)

just beat that on 3rd try, the difficulty spike is indeed extreme compared to the rest of the game, but taking 6 hrs just to beat that section? Laughing


I'm also stuck at this section on normal, I kinda agree with the reviewers, it's completely imbalanced, I'd been trying for over 2 hours, lots of attempts and no save, hp back for 20 mins> gameplay, I haven't even reached 3rd wave...the first wave of mobs are insane, I'm not a hardcore God of war fan, or claim to be a very good gamer, but been playing games for 20 years, the jump of difficulty was just too extreme for me... gotta give it to you for doing that in 3 attempts... I must be getting old.

LOL Sony is pushing out a patch to rename a trophy in the game called "Bros before Hoes" Because some people found it to be offensive.

I hope this patch somehow makes this game to be played diskless.

nope, i still got the trophy with the patch.
btw the outroar is retarded, you get it after a certain scene in the game, many players claim its due to the killing of a female character, hence the drama.
in fact, the idiots completely misunderstood what the trophy refers to, namely to the part of that scene where kratos gets saved by another male character from the female one - hence bros before hos Rolling Eyes

Meh. Didn't finish it yet but this is not over a 7/10 in my book. Gfx scale is nice but the series need a major overhaul. Let's hope for open world or something not so linear, role playing elements and revamped story. Well, clearly they must follow the Darksiders way. Nearly the middle of the game and I'm already bored.

the first wave is crucial, rest isnt as bad,

kill the cobras in the beginning as fast as you can, when the witches arrive keep blocking because of their lightning magic, forget about evading.
also keep spamming any magic attacks and items as soon as they recharge, it helps alot.
2nd wave is easier, first get rid of the flying enemies easily by grabbing them (r1) and throwing off the edge, then spam magic attacks and the other shit again against the spear users and get some attacks in, block attacks, do not evade!
last enemy of this wave is not a problem, you shouldnt get hit even once if you block properly.
3rd wave is the easiest, first enemy is a centaur, just block, attack now and then and qte him to death - after this you get around half your hp restored,
with that you should have an easy time with the last few enemies.

i gotta say, this part of the game really woke me up, difficulty-wise.
after the last few years of gaming where i could almost go through the games with closed eyes (except for dark/demons souls), this made me clench my controller and sweat like in the old snes and psx times when games used to spit on you and laugh.

Hmmm. So, I'm still unable to get to the gameplay after creating a profile and starting new game. I've tried on two different PS3s, and have also re-downloaded the files, same thing every time. Even tried removing the split files and editing the archives file and running it off an external, same problem.

I'm using Rogero 4.30 and have tried on various versions of MM. Tomb Raider and Crysis 3 both work, and other games on the internal work too. Can anyone think what could be causing my problem, or offer some alternative suggestions to try?

Kotaku review Smile

http://kotaku.com/5990207/god-of-war-ascension-the-kotaku-review



Quote:
Even though the first half of the game is as tired as the next Zelda quest that has you fetching a bow-and-arrow, the game alters and refines the series' combat into an arsenal that feels, by halfway, glorious to wield. Plus, the camerawork's amazing.


Im sure some of those who have played it disagree with the camera comment?


May the NFOrce be with you always.

Still not been able to download from usenet, downloads ok, but something not right, PAR does an auto repair.... then insists that the rar's are still in complete... try repair again... endless cycle.
This is from blocknews, extremeusenet, and usenetserver a.b.g.ps3 group Sad
Tried torrents but was going to take a week to download.
Mind you ive been trying usenet since last saturday so i might as well have gone the torrent route.

Don't let your Newsreader try and extract/repair. If like me you're using newsleecher it can't rename like Quickpar can, this might be the issue - the files have been deliberately messed up in order to obfuscate their identity.. Try using quickpar on the files, it will rename them then tell you whether they need repaired.

the trial of archimedes is a piece of fucking bullshit. yes i'm terrible at this game and the rest of the game is too easy (playing on normal), but this is simply horrible game design and most importantly, not fun. that 3-on-1 boss fight before? good stuff. this? already 2 hours of an annoying, RSI-inducing clusterfuck and i'm still stuck Mad

that right here is the problematic part. need to constantly block because of the medusas, but i also get spammed with those 3-hit mini orbital lightning strikes which force me to move, which then again ends with me getting tailswiped or whatever right after dodging.

also, which kind of magic did you use?
