Honestly, if I had a dollar every time I read a "it'll come to PS+" post on CAG, well... let's just say I wouldn't have to be a CAG anymore! :)

I enjoyed the game quite a bit- it wasn't anything amazing, but I thought it was a fine shooter, especially on the Vita where options in that genre are slim pickings. Plus, it's short. I didn't get the platinum, so I can't speak to that.

It was super short, but I didn't finish it.

 
If it feels more like Far Cry 3 with improvements, and less like 2. Then I'll definitely be getting a copy. Probably, not at release though.

How do trophy percentages work, anyway? idgi. It's not just trophies gained/trophies total. Is there just some defined weighting for bronze/silver/gold, or does it vary per game depending on the number of trophies the game has?

Did this get answered?

Bronze are worth 15, Silver 30, Gold 90, Platinum 180. Add up all trophies in a retail game and it will be something like 1100. So if you have only one bronze in the game, you are 15/1100 or 1%. If you have 7 Bronze, 2 Silver, and 1 Gold, you'll be at 255/1100 or 23%.

Actually, I may be wrong, the 180 for the Platinum might not be factored in. Just add up Bronze, Silvers, and Golds. Not positive though.

Yo Tyler, where were the last secrets you needed in Steamworld?

In the first or 2nd cave of the Vectron robotic world. They were both minirals so they were marked on the map.

 
Just beat Rayman Legends, it was a great game until the Living Dead Party section, which was one of the worst portions of a game I have ever played. I am so glad I renewed my PS Plus membership, because I have been looking forward to playing Strider, so that is what I will start on next!

that is what i feel too from all the demo shown so far. i would probably picked it up once it is cheap. i am surprised that assasin creed unity is not being release on the old gen console of ps3/ xbox 360. since they are releasing far cry 4 on both last gen , and current gen consoles.

bar a bazooka ex i could get @ aetersyl with demolition walkers, but there aren't any drop/rare drop terminals to link and I'v spent an hour or so and didn't get any, so I can live with maxed out golden guns minus 1 sub rail barrel or whatever it is on the top of barrel that lets you also add a scope.

You have to destroy the second armor part at the head. I got one to drop pretty much every time, but don't just kill them - make sure you destroy that armor part. You'll have to scratch once to get the outer, then again to get the inner.

 
the problem is I am too strong now. so I try to break all their armor with a jump shot but then if I shoot on ground, in air, or even grenade they usually die in one hit... tough to get them. I have 2 and you only need 3 to super max, it's just that empty space in the top left of the customization area is mocking me...

 
Don't jump shot with the machine guns.  Target the front only, either run by or stand still.  Jump with the pistol.  Make sure you don't scratch the body with the machine gun.

 
Can Velo or Simmy please tell me what the max customization on the guns are? I'm using the guide on TA, so is that the one you two followed? There's a gun customization section where he lists the best weapon setups for two HG and one MG.

 
WTF there's no classic stadiums in the PS4 version?  This looks nice but it is a huge disappointment compared to last year's PS3 version.

 
Come watch me snipe Nazis in the balls and die over and over again. No mic, cause i have my fan blasting so u wouldn't be able to hear me anyway.

i did that twice and got eagle eye kills ;)

There really is no reason to go back to level 1 now just for that... im gonna finish up arena/neverland, then boss, then 2nd speedrun.

I used these: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_791kazLL88

I think I eventually had Vashyron with the crazy good golden MG, Leanne duel-wielding normal MGs, and Zephyr with duel-wielded golden HGs.

There are two acceleration stats for each gun. The first one controls how fast the your gun accelerates depending on distance from the enemy. The second one controls how fast the gun accelerates after the first acceleration. So when you duel wield, you want one gun that's got a crazy good first acceleration stat, and one that has a good second one, because when you duel wield they average out. I think Leanne had accelerations in the 90s after they averaged, Zephyr too. Whoever has the golden MG don't even worry about it because it's OP.

I've always wanted to play RoF and has been on my shelf in the backlog for ages now, but every time you guys talk about the game it makes me not want to even think about it while bringing me slightly closer to accepting I'm never going to touch it.

Holy crap, did you do those exact setups? That's probably way more than I want to invest in this game.

 
Here are some coupon codes for Play-Asia, both are $5 off $60 or more:

WW-QVH-BXB (Expires August 2, 2014)

IZ-KRZ-DIS (Expires August 4, 2014)

 
for those that did watch for a few minutes, was the quality ok? i still have my ps4 on wireless.

edit: also, does my voice have the extra lag too? like if something happens on my screen, and i respond, does my response get broadcast immediately?

It gets broadcast with when you said it in the gameplay. The whole thing is then delayed to the viewer.

It's worth a play just for the battle system and the gun customization, both of which are pretty fun. Story's not great, but it seems like it wants to be. Voice acting's pretty good - Nathan Drake is the main guy. The only really awful part of the plat is grinding the arena, but it's really not that much worse than what plats in most RPGs will run you.

Ita not about the plat, I dont care about that. Its more along the lines that it seems more tedious than fun. It appeals to me because its unique, but it kind of seems unique in a bad way.

 
Oh, the only tedious stuff is for the plat.  That's what we're all bitching about.  Definitely play it if you don't care about that.  You don't even have to grind ever to beat the game, which is crazy rare in RPGs.

Welp. I'm over SF4 now. Gonna stick to just watching it. Got the trophies for unlocking everybody and beating it with everyone on medium. I'm satisfied with that.

 
simmias said:
Yeah, you guys know I'm weird, though, I always like to max everything. It's actually not too time consuming to get all the best gun parts.

I just threw everything together in a spreadsheet. Most of the stuff I need I can get from the Arena where I have all the luck terminals from 4 and 5, plus the amp terminal hooked up and Lucky Charm accesories, so my drop rates are crazy high. That shouldn't take very long. I need 3 Scrapped Bazooka EX, which I think was what Velo was talking about earlier, so I'm going to try for those in Aester-whatevertheFitscalled. That dungeon really kicked my ass the first time through though.
