Devil May Cry 4 is on it's way!!

[Shadow Bahamut]

i can't believe it!! Capcom is on a DMC rampage. Devil May Cry 4 to be released in 2006 shortly after the PS3 - European release.

This should be good, i mean look at DMC 3, most thought that was perfect, but there's obviously something they missed.....
with all that raw power of the PS3, DMC 4 should be unbelievable, with all that High Definition, graphics should be better than ever.

just think of it....a piece of heaven is on it's way to us.

[Project G]

DMC4!:hyper: COOOL

[Dreddz]

Yeah DMC 2 was awful, but DMC 3 was sweet

[Destai]

I've only played 2 which was pretty good. 1 and 3 were supposedly awesome. I migh pick one of them up sometime.

believe me when i say; you don't know what you are missing...
all those hours of stress relief, its amazing..

[Dreddz]

If you say DMC2 was good, then you will probably be in heaven playing DMC 1 or 3. DMC2 was trying to do too many things right, that it got it all wrong. I might pick up DMC3 some time...........

You should, DMC3 is soooo much better than DMC2

[Dreddz]

better than DMC 1, that was the only one i actually enjoyed .....

[Project G]

Its easier than DMC1 and its stylish

[Shadow Bahamut]

DMC 3 was probably the best of the series, i think. They combined the best bits of both 1+2 and got it perfect. What's in DMC4, who knows....a slice of DMC heaven..:D

[Dreddz]

Its easier than DMC1 and its stylish
mmm, DMC1 was too easy imo, well, until I got to Dante must die mode, then I bled biting my hands so hard.......

[Project G]

Well, I sucked al DMC1! I couldnt get past those shadow dog thingies on normal

[Dreddz]

meh, Dark Puddle was the only this i ever had trouble with .....

[Project G]

meh, Dark Puddle was the only this i ever had trouble with .....

Dark Puddle? dont you mean the Nightmare?

[Dreddz]

if thats the errrrrmmm dark puddle then yea, I never knew the names of these things ....

[Shadow Bahamut]

n those shadow doggies, are called Shadows. as the name suggests...

Nightmare's pretty easy once you know what to do, you just gotta keep jumping and land on his back when you get the chance.
DMC1 i managed to get to Super Dante mode, and bloody hell!! it i goooooood. Super a$$ kickin all over the place, bad thing is, enemies get Devil Trigger too..

[Project G]

Grrr damn you, I officially sucked soooo much at DMC1 its embarassing

[Shadow Bahamut]

lol, it took me aaaaages to get there, and a mem. card full of saves, but i did it...but i haven't got passed mission 9 where you get Ifrit, i can't beat Griffon when he's in DT...it's soooo god-damn hard..

[Project G]

I can imagine

[Shadow Bahamut]

who the hell changed my post????!?!?!!
grrr....

[Skarr]

You mean this (http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3145241&did=1) game. ;P

[Dolentrean]

Ha ha ha, ya DMC 3 is more has more stylish but dante tryed to hard, in the first he was a badass, in the third he was a punk, he was cool but I liked DMC1 dante better. I found the game kind of easy like many others, harder than one, but alot of people I know complained about the difficulty:confused:

[kikimm]

I'm really looking forward to this, but I still haven't played DMC3 yet. Or DMC2 but eh. I need to get moving.

[Deaths_Hand]

i still havent played DMC 2 and 3

[Dolentrean]

I never played two because I was told it was unnessecary and easy.

[Deaths_Hand]

i heard 2 was easy and it wasnt any good and i no longer have a PS2 which is the reasoning for no playing of 3

[Markus. D]

oh 3 was by far the most in-depth action based game i have ever played.

its going to take alot of hard work to get four to surpass such a brilliant story.


ps: ive been waiting for number four ever since the ps3 was announcesesesdeded.

[Deaths_Hand]

maybe i should pick up a ps2 again when the price drops for it, ive been wanting to play 3, along with several other games

[Markus. D]

i heard 2 was easy and it wasnt any good and i no longer have a PS2 which is the reasoning for no playing of 3

they actually upped the diffuculty with the japanese to english version of dmc3, english dmc3 normal diffuculty is the equivilent to japanese dmc3 hard diffuculty.

its not easy, you are going to need strategy and alot of creativity with your combos.

[Lindy]

NEEDS MORE NEVAN.

[Shadow Bahamut]

Nevan?!?!? that's your fav.?! did you ever try Agni and Rudra, or Cerberus??? they are ultimates!

[Markus. D]

those bros and Cerberus are kind of tame.... Geryon and Neven :)


ps: DMC4 should consume me.

[Midnight Garnet]

i hated nevan...but cerberus rocked! dmc 4 looks like its gonna be awesome!:D

[Markus. D]

you cant hate someone who an kill you in one go :P

[Lindy]

Nevan?!?!? that's your fav.?! did you ever try Agni and Rudra, or Cerberus??? they are ultimates!
Not really.

Agni and Rudra, while seeming quick, have too much downtime post-combos leaving you far too open for attack against quick enemies.

Cerberus is nice, but the lack of Air Hike makes it less useful for me, though it is a must for Beowulf, Ice Age blocks his feather attack.

But you're against Nevan? Purely because you can't use it properly, surely. Spamming away with bats is horribly ineffective, you need to practice and get yourself in the perfect position to juggle and stun a target.

And try taking on Enigma on Hard and above without Reverb Shock to deflect the arrows.

Nevan is a ranged weapon, you must be trying to use it up close and personal.

"Yes, death is strong, but look you, the strongest, Stronger is music than death" -Franz Werfel

There is no "ultimate", if you're just talking purely about damage, then Beowulf would be the "ultimate", except it's horrifyingly slow. All the weapons do different things, that's the point.

P.S. And Nevan wuz hawt lolz.

[Shadow Bahamut]

i just said ultimates because of the "all-round" capability. Cerberus is a very much "all-rounder", doing reasonable damage, with quick speed. And of course his seemingly endless combos.
Agni and Rudra are quick, similar to Cerberus, but with high time. this was just my best combination that i found throughout the game. Beowulf is far to slow for me, although high damage is incurred.

[Lindy]

Except you're wrong.

Rebellion is the only "all-rounder" weapon, equal offense, defense, mobility and combos.

Agni and Rudra are quick offense but lack defense, specials have an after-pause of at least a second, which is far too long, especially Crossed Swords or Jet Stream, or the insane pause during and after Million Slash

Cerberus is quick, but lacks Air Hike, so you have far less mobility.

It's fine if it's what you prefer, but don't act like what you prefer is the only "ultimate" set of weapons, because every other is just as effective.

Nevan is strong at long-range, has some of the best crowd control moves and is by far the most defensive weapon in the game due to the stun effects of it's moves, just most people pass it by because they either can't use it or don't even try because of OMGDUELSORRDDSS!!!111

[Markus. D]

yes, im useing it as the primary weapon for ranged when I get it for my gunslinger file.

ps: I thought you ment bosses, well... Quicksilver is still a neat class but well. my faveorite weapons are.

Ebony & Ivory: I use it when I am trapped in a melee needed situation (surrounded) combined with rebbelion, I would start off with charge and the bullet rain, then air rapido, after that air dive then do the AoE strike with rebbelion, then charged shooting... its weak but useful in that sort of situation.

Shotgun: That Fireworks is a sexy move and it makes the gun shoot quicker.

Spiral: I dont know what I like about this gun... I just... love it.

Kalina Ann: <3<3 this gun is pure spammage when at full potential, brilliant weapon.

in conclusion, as you can see im not big on melee combat.

[Shadow Bahamut]

i see what your saying Lindy, and as you pointed out, Nevan is a highly Defensive weapon. I don't defend much, i find the best defence is offence in this sort of game. Yes there are occasions when you must defend, but these occasions come few and far between. In the harder modes, yes it's nearly a must, but you must still attack.
I just prefer to use quicker weapons, (i actually use Cerberus far more than A&R, they're just there for the Air Hike and flashyness.).
My guns are a different matter, i always seem to carry Ebony and Ivory (it's just not right for me not to....) and i swap between the Shotgun and Artemis.

[Markus. D]

if your going to gunsling through dante must die, Kalina Ann is a need!

[Lindy]

It does attack at the same time as defending, just because it's defensive doesn't mean it can't do damage as well.

What, you think a massive area of effect lightning blast similar to Million Slash/Stab but on more than one enemy does zero damage now?

Defensive moments are NEVER few and far between, every time you're attacked by an enemy it's a defensive moment.

[Markus. D]

defence is what makes a royal guard able to execute his uber strong counter tactics.

[Lindy]

Exactly.

Nevan keeps you defended until you find the perfect time to unleash your fury on a target, or more often group of targets, and utterly devastate them. Keep your targets at range, then at the right time Reverb Shock and Jam Session combo the hell out of them.

That and the fact that it stun-juggles a group of targets, which no other Devil Arm can even come close to.

[Shadow Bahamut]

yeah, but if you don't use Royal Guard and use Doppel Ganger or Quicksilver, which make bosses one hell of a lot easier, then it's not much use apart from your tactics.
(yes, i do use Doppel Ganger an awful lot, along with Quicksilver. Mainly cuz i got everything else up to lvl2 and cannot be bothered waiting 99999 points for lvl 3. has anybody done that yet by the way???)

[Lindy]

I didn't say you had to use Royal Guard and Nevan, I was pointing out that Nevan is LIKE Royal Guard.

You play defensively and get to a point where you can kill an enemy, or group of, very swiftly. Royal Guard is the same, you defend and then unleash, but you don't have to use both together.
I personally use Nevan and Swordmaster because the addition of a few close-range moves really extends the combo sets.

[Markus. D]

same. :P

I mean, that was what I was trying to point out.

ps: Yes, I have maxed trickster and maxed Ebony and Ivory so far, some extremely useful tactics await you with lvl 3 trickster.

Upgrades cost too much damn orbs...
Just thinking about that infuriates me
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
