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.

Posted August 29, 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. 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.

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 29, 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 31, 2008 Yeah thats a good one. For those willing to go deeper there is http://8wayrun.com/ and http://caliburforum.com/forums/index.php The game is great despite its flaws. Once you get over the crime against humanity single player modes(dont bother with tower of souls, it ought to be patched). Its a great game. Some imbalances online(Misturugi dominance) are quite obvious. Noobs seem to think the easy characters are unbalanced Tower of sould is a mess hardly anyone has played it judging by rankings.

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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
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) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 20, 2008 Well this came out of nowhere. What a radical and unexpected move from Namco.

Yes Namco are rip off merchants when it comes to DLC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.
