inFAMOUS - Now Available - First Shipments include Uncharted 2 MP Beta

[quote name='pete5883']Just started - on the map there are yellow !'s with a blue background or a red background. I thought these were good or evil, but they didn't affect my karma at all, and only once did it say "Good side mission completed." What's the story with these?[/QUOTE]

They are good or evil. There are 5 blue/red side missions per island. You unlock a level for a power for every 5 you do of the same karma.
 
[quote name='woodcan']Also, does anyone know if you can eventually go back to a previous island? I just unlocked the 2nd island tonight but I thought I would be able to jump from island to island so I didn't finish taking over all of the districts in Neon [/QUOTE]

Start doing some of the side missions on The Warren and you'll eventually get one
where you lower the drawbridge
so you can go back to the Neon.
 
I have 3 more stunts and I'm not sure I'm every going to be able to complete them. Air Sticky Bomb and Crash and Splash are a bit too difficult. Have a Nice Fall is just too hard to find a place to do it at, you don't see 3 enemies on a roof together very often.

Thanks! Yeah, I played some earlier and did that mission. I'm glad they decided to give you that opportunity to go back.

What is Crash and Splash? EDIT: Nevermind, I got it.
With the
Tar on the water tower side missions
on Neon you can find 3 guys on a roof but I've yet to be able to get them close enough together to blast them all off with a single shockwave. I left one of those missions unfinished but unfortunately it turns out that one (next to Zeke's) leaves the 3 guys on one roof at different levels (2 on roof, 1 on tower then 2 on opposite roof and 1 behind turret on upper level) so you may not want to leave that one as the last
water tower
on Neon. I think I did it twice on other
water tower
side missions but unfortunately blasted them twice (2nd time while they were in air) so I think it didn't count :cry:
 
FWIW, I found these when googling "infamous stunts"

Turns out the Splash and Crash is one of the first 10 I knocked out since it was on my pause screen. It was kind of a pain but I just found a tall building with reavers around it and jumped off the roof to do it. The problem I kept having was that I kept hitting square before I let go of L1. Just something to keep in mind.

I only have 9 stunts so far, as I haven't really been actively trying to get them. I really enjoy tracking down the blast shards and drop points though. I'm on
The warrens
now, and the side missions are only getting a bit repetitive.

I'm at the last mission. Already did all of Neon's side quests.

There is a storyline mission on the second island where there is a roof with like 4 or 5 guys on it at once, but I could never get them all close enough to hit them with shock wave before getting killed.

[quote name='sotc1988']How do you look at your stunts? I have 16 done, I just don't know which ones.[/QUOTE]
You can't. You just have to remember which ones you've done.
 
Beat the game, evil ending. Man what a ride. A little disappointed that
the first boss didn't show up again after talking in my ear the whole game
and I really liked
the final moral choice that changed the way my powers looked.
Final Boss was hard but
I saw the reveal coming a mile away.
 
I just finished Infamous. I must admit the ending was a bit surprising. I also managed to get Up close and Personal stunt(I found an area where 6 guys would spawn near a pier) and it was the last stunt I needs to get a Trophy. Now I just need to locate the last 13 blast shards. But I noticed a few of them haven't appear when I scanned for them so It seems I'll have to keep an eye out for some that are missed by a scan.

[quote name='sotc1988']How do you look at your stunts? I have 16 done, I just don't know which ones.[/QUOTE]
If you pause the game it will list a stunt you haven't done. So you could use that to help get that last few.
 
[quote name='lilboo']Just by reading stuff.. and reading what people are talking about..is this like.. a PS3 Crackdown??[/QUOTE]
Pretty much, but it has an actual story.
 
Finished it. I loved the ending. I hope a sequel is made.

I have 4 more shards to find and 2 more stunts to do (I got the air bomb one). I still have to take over the final island too.

can you continue the game after you beat the story or does it end?
 
[quote name='erectiontown']can you continue the game after you beat the story or does it end?[/QUOTE]
Yeah you can. And alot of the stunts are easier to pull off then they sound.
 
Only 9 more blast shards to go. Now I'm searching block by block to find them. I'd like to find them all before I start a new game.
 
I just bought infamous, and my copy didn't come with a beta code. Wtf.

I bought it from Gamestop and it didn't come with a code. If any one could hook me up, please email me at [email protected] or pm me.

I know, I know, it doesn't sound probable, but if I have to I will take a picture of the game and the case near a piece of paper with my user name on it. One of the main reasons I bought this game was for the beta, and now my copy didn't even come with a code.

I don't have much to offer in return, unless you want some battelfield: heroes beta keys.

Oh? Well, they just closed, so I will give them a ring tomorrow morning. Thanks for the idea!

Until now I didn't realize ChibiJosh and Chibi_Kaji were different people... :lol:[/QUOTE]

You still can't be sure we are.

2 more shards, 2 more stunts. 2 more thousand exp to go for the last power upgrade.

I agree because having to find 350 of them a 2nd time could be a real pain. I feel the same about the stunts and dead drops. Although, at least you get XP bonuses for the shards and stunts.

Well, I mean, I didn't realize they were two separate accounts. You may be the same person, but now I clearly saw you two are separate accounts.

I have a bad habit of just looking at the avatar/beginning of the username.
 
Solid game, and I'm having fun, but I have to second the complaint about the goddamn sniper eyed enemys. The range and accuracy on some of these cats is ridiculous.

:lol: Well if your target was a walking glowing pylon of electricity it would make it a lot easier to see right?

Just played the first mission of the demo, I'm really interested in this now.

Same thing happened to me today :bomb:

Completely forgot about the beta until I got online and saw a boxshot with that blurb on it.
fucking GS employees taking all the free goods.

Well that's the problem. Your character isn't always emitting electricity. I can be minding my own business and still get clipped despite looking like one of many other pedestrians (which happen to be alot closer than I am!)
I should be rewarded for subtlety.

Besides, even if I were a walking Neon sign, that doesn't explain how these hooded menaces are crack shots with an AK from a mile away.

They may be on the second printing which would mean no more beta codes. Unless it was a gutted copy, there should be a sticker on the outer packagine and a paper insert in the game case with the code.

I know I bought the last copy my Gamestop had of Infamous on Tuesday night. On Friday they had more new copies, didn't see if they had beta keys or not.
 
Got my copy from Amazon on Thursday, which is actually pretty great considering that I used Free Shipping. So I got the game even before the scheduled ship date!

Glad to hear that the game is selling at a brisk pace -- PS3 owners must be looking for their first summer blockbuster, and this sounds like it definitely hits that spot. Can't wait to go home tomorrow and start playing.
 
[quote name='MSUHitman']there should be a sticker on the outer packagine and a paper insert in the game case with the code.[/QUOTE]


I bought my copy the day it came out from GS and it didnt have the sticker on the outer package. I just made sure before I left the store that I had the uncharted beta insert in the case.




Also..I fucking around with my PSP upstairs and went into remote play just for S&G's and it is such a cock tease that you can go to the game and see the little clip of it and stuff but cant play it....I NEED MORE GAMES WITH REMOTE PLAY DAMMIT!
 
[quote name='fizzywix']Any amazon orders get your Home costume code yet?[/QUOTE]

Nope, but it'll probably be next Tuesday or Wednesday I'm thinking since in the past I usually got my code just about a week later.
 
I just realized a something funny in this game. Your character can't use guns, because his powers set off the powder in the bullets and make it explode, he can't use cars because his powers short circut it, Yet hes able to use a cell phone, witch is more sensitive to electricity than either of those xD.
 
Only one more shard to go... I have no idea where to look now. I checked out the docks and I think I checked every block. I might take another go around the rails and see if I find one.

[quote name='bigdaddybruce44']I ended up getting $10 for a code on eBay. I was surprised anyone was willing to pay so much. But hey, made my copy cheaper.[/QUOTE]
I got like $30 for my Fable 2 LE code
 
anyone else ntice how the main character kind moves and climbs alot like raziel from the soul reaver games? even some of his abilities are the same. kind of an interesting coincidence. also do those shards randomly regenerate? i swear ive found some in the same places ive already been. very odd but stil a great game once you get past the first few missions.
 
My only complaint about this is how he gets killed so easily. I think...3-4 shots and he's done. Other than that, its great. BTW, the guy who does Cole's face, is he the one who did Snake's?

Are you saying that Cole and Snake like giving head to the same guy?
 
I think he meant voice, and no, David Hayter did not do Cole's voice.

It was definitely someone trying to sound like David Hayter as Snake, though, for sure.

I would imagine that it's a modified Sly Cooper engine with the way Cole clings to everything and the way he jumps.
