Solo Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Yeah but like Solo said your frustration gets the better of you...I've actually taken to sending messages to people over PSN saying things like "spamming f&!k!" funnily enough very few reply.... The thing that annoys me the most is when you play against someone in the higher levels is losing and starts to spam... btw That Guy, I added you as a friend on PSN notice my request has gone un-accepted Yeah I have a couple of times resorted to sending negative feedback on Live, I know thats a bit low but I get so riled up by spammers especially when they repeatedly beat you after KO, it just... just GRINDS MY GEEEEAARRSSS.

S.C.G Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Quite funny really, i had played some guy from america on the 360 one and he spammed like hell. Went online briefly this morning before i got to work and he had sent me a voise message apolagising for spamming saying 'he was trying to get the level up to 20 achievment' lol. Yeah, I know everyone complains about the spamming but lol the thing is everyone with the 360 version is going to do it at least up to lvl 20 for me the solution is simple, they spam... I spam right back, I usually own them most of the time with Xianghua too.
Solo Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 OK I'm kinda stuck on the final floor in Tower of Souls. Anyone got any tips on beating Algol? Apparently you can get him to ring himself out. EDIT: Never mind I found a cheap trick on Youtube, it works perfectly.. achievement get!
McPhee Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Is Zasalamel any good in this game? He's good if you know how to use him. Last time i was online i played a guy who was really damned good with him, i was literally sweating! It's really difficult to beat a guy who's attack roster is based on close-range counters when you're playing Maxi (i lost overall, must have played about 10 games with him though and it was fairly close).

Deathjam Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 yeah I find that hard which is why I abandoned my previous favourite Maxi... FOR SHAME!
flameboy Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 FOR SHAME! I know...but I just wasn't winning with him online...
Hellfire Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Played a bit of the 360 version, can't say I liked it, 2 still seems the best to me. For what I could see it was unbalanced and broken and it didn't really click. Plus, don't like the character's design and HDR abuse. But that's moot, the gameplay just didn't do it. Going to try to play more to see if I change my mind.
Dan_Dare Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 played this last night- seemed pretty solid. Didn't get in to using soul crush or anything though- how does that work? sadly one to drop by the wayside for me anyway. Can't afford it now, and any time i can buy games soon is going to be during the november rush so there's better games to buy.
Jimbob Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 I hate button bashers online, they ruin the game completly which has stopped me playing this online for the time being. Played someone who used Kiliks move where he hits you with his pole vertical to horizontal, annoys me when i try and move in to wipe them out. And i play using a variety of moves.
Roostophe Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 I don't even want to attempt playing it online. Do not do not do chuffing well not!

Can't afford it now, and any time i can buy games soon is going to be during the november rush so there's better games to buy. Soul crush works were if you keep hitting ur opponent while they are blocking the coloured circle next to there heath starts changing colour, eventually the whole health bar will flash red, a few more hits after that and u hear like a smashing sound and the opponent is stunned, it is at this point u can press LB and u will perform a critical finish.
flameboy Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 I have still not once seen a critical finish in an online game of this.
LegoMan1031 Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 I have still not once seen a critical finish in an online game of this. I have only seen one once, and that was when i used one myself, this person just blocked and that was it, no attacking, lol.
flameboy Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Good matches Flameboy. Loved you character creations. I need to spend time with that. I played it safe and stuck to my best characters Kilik and Maxi. There should be a public strategy guide for this. I have been using practice mode alot lately. Yeah good games and you came back really well after losing the first two matches... The 1up.com strategy guide is quite good got write ups on each character as well as videos.
flameboy Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Surprised no else bumped this up, but it has been confirmed as everyone expected that Yoda/Darth Vader will no be DLC for the platforms they originally didn't appear on. Namco Bandai will finally be offering Darth Vader and Yoda as downloadable Soulcalibur IV characters this week. From Thursday, the legendary Sith pin-up will be available for 400 Microsoft Points (GBP 3.40 / EUR 4.80) from Xbox Live, while the little green Jedi leader will cost USD 4.99 (Euro price TBC) on the PlayStation Store. Previously, Vader and Yoda were restricted to PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game respectively. Soulcalibur IV also offers the Secret Apprentice from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed as a playable fighter. Pop over to our Soulcalibur IV review to find out more. Quite how bothered I am about this I am not too sure... with so much other stuff out now, I don't SC4 anywhere near as much and pretty soon, MK vs DC will be my fighter of choice.

Sorry to sound cheesy, but if this is true then "the circle will be complete". Sounds good, but will have to see about it on Thursday. Edit: Seen Wikipedia, they confirm this. Looks like MS fans get Vader cheaper than PS3 fans get Yoda
S.C.G Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Edit: Seen Wikipedia, they confirm this. Looks like MS fans get Vader cheaper than PS3 fans get Yoda Quite ironic that the cheapest character in the game (moves-wise) is the most expensive to buy... (for the PS3 version)
Gizmo Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Well this came out of nowhere. What a radical and unexpected move from Namco.
flameboy Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Well this came out of nowhere. What a radical and unexpected move from Namco. Nah its been expected for a while now...It's probably likely the relevant files are on each disc... I will download Yoda and complete his story then probably do little else.
Dante Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 why do people called namco scamco for what they do for DLC?
Calza Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Nah its been expected for a while now...It's probably likely the relevant files are on each disc... I will download Yoda and complete his story then probably do little else. I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic. why do people called namco scamco for what they do for DLC? 186Kb downloads, features that would of been included two years ago are now paid-dlc at launch, over priced etc
flameboy Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic. 186Kb downloads, features that would of been included two years ago are now paid-dlc at launch, over priced etc yeah as soon as I posted, I realised it sounded pretty sarcastic. Yes Namco are rip off merchants when it comes to DLC.

I will download Yoda and complete his story then probably do little else. I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic. Indeed Dante, the reason people dislike Namco's DLC strategy is because (imo) the whole point of DLC is to include extra content after a games release that wouldn't have been included in the final retail game, for whatever reason (budget, time, lack of ideas even). I.e, something extra. Namco consistently strip content out of their games as standard only to charge extra for the privilege to access it. See; SCIV, Beautiful Katamari, ToV.
