There is literally nothing wrong with using Cheat Engine for infinite CREOs.
>>123386201
This.
>>123386201
yup
>>123386201
Agreed, why add in a pointless grind just to use one of the core pvp mechanics
better fix this shit in DS3
>>123386303
>better fix this shit in DS3
It was already shown that there's a full orb.
>>123386393
There was one in the DS2 network test too, newfag.
Are whips ever worth a damn in pvp? I really like using them but they feel pretty inferior, more of a fun wep
>>123386506
Uh huh
>/dsg/ is literally filled with disgusting subhuman CE cheating scum
as i suspected.
>>123386725
Ano I don't care if what youtube videoes you find, there was infinite invasion items in it before release.
There probably will be one in DS3 but don't take the network test at face value
>>123386506btfo delete this etc
>>123386506
Yeah but the full eye orb was confirmed in ds3 sooo...
>>123386802
>playing the same PvE over and over again just to make a purely PvP character
kill yourself my man
>>123387015
Good, network test is still not the place to take shit from.
>>123386506
Miyazaki himself said that reusable invasion items will be a thing, dumbass.
>>123387062
>playing pvp
lmao ok man, have fun with your fucking pokey weapons over and over.
it's a lot more fun to boss rush this game than to play it against people.
>>123387131
For the 4th time
Good, use that as a source.
>>123387062
>Making a purely PvP character
>>123387278
>>123387165
>not doing low level invasions in the parish
what are you doing with your life
>>123387062
>purely PvP character
>>123386506
It's already confirmed
i sure hope dark souls 3 will have dark souls 2's soft-ban system, that was such a good system. literally no hackers on PC because of it.fuck you b team
>>123387270
No. Fight them for extra honor. Sometimes you can knock cheaters off the map and it's immensely fucking satisfying.
When DaS2 first came out I got invaded by a lot of mules at Heide and I managed to kill a lot via ringout and I got SOOOOOOO much delicious fan mail. I'm amazed PSN could handle it.
>>123387338
oh yeah I did that.
in fucking 2012.
Jesus christ how do you even get invasion in the parish anymore.
>>123387440
Infinite health - No Problemo
Different SM - Bannu
PVP Watchdog can't detect some kinds of hackers, what do? Alt+F4 when they invade? I'm asking because I'm afraid of save corruption, don't know if it happens on PC.
>>123387504
literally get them all the time, i get invaded myself in the parish as well.
>>123387593
Just back up your safe file every now and then
>>123387482
Kind of hard when they have that first person camera cheat on, but good thinking.
>>123387713
Sounds good. Shit can get annoying, it's always the same two cheaters in DaS1 (I imagine you all know who they are)
>>123387591
What was From thinking...
>>123387591
So, basically, you can do anything except cheat in unobtainable items and modify your SM?
>>123388172
Modifying your souls triggers it too but its an extension of the sm thing
What is the best crossbow in scholar? My raw heavy crossbow+10 isn't really doing it for me anymore. Should I grab the shield crossbow or one of the sanctum ones I guess?
>>123388172
yes. Unlimited HP, instacurse, unlimited equip-break on your fists, etc. are all fine
>b t e a m
>>123388383
I've never run into a hacker, your fault for being gay and a retarded faggot I guess.
I'm looking into making a First Person mod that isn't trash and considering a mod to let you shoot bolts or arrows like a shooter game.
>>123388446
>it's my fault that fromsoft can't online
lol ok
>>123388172
>>123388383
Also, having stats impossible for your level will get you banned. Like if you have 2000 out of 1500 HP.
>>123388657
there is a mod dummy its called kings field :)
>>123388657
I wonder how it would feel like to control that with a mouse.
>>123387716
>first person camera cheat
?
>>123388657
That looks actually really cool. But Im a sonygger so no mods 4 me.
>>123389242
Basically it forces you into the first person camera (like when you use a bow). IIRC, it also makes you unable to attack.
>>123389486
Using binoculars removes it.
>plug in my controller
>use the input tester and see that the controller is working fine, fuck around with it for 5 more minutes
>start to play dark souls
>controllers works fine then it abruptly stops working
>works again for a couple seconds
>then stops working at all
why is dark souls doing this to me, this is the only game it happens in. this game just hates my controllers.
>>123389701
Cool, didn't know that. I'll try it the next time I'm invaded by these fags, thanks.

>>123390158
why arent you wearing a helmet
>>123388657
Why use the bow as a base when you can just use binoculars? No retarded arrow hud.
>>123389486
Wow, I can't even believe people do that shit.
Then again I shouldn't be surprised. I've been trying out the new CoD and about 1/3 of my matches involve invincible people or obvious aimbotters.
I guess for some people winning is enough, even if they don't actually play the fucking game.
>>123389173
would most like be an 1000% upgrade for me
>>123388657
pretty gud bb, keep up the good work. 3 improvements you could make imho:
1) more compact crosshair (although i suppose you can use another mod for that)
2)put the camera a couple of inches back (if it is possible without ruining depth perception)
3) no disembodied forearms
do you even go by anything? or should we just call you dusk-kun?
>>123390282
you can't attck while using the binos in ds1, might be a problem with that
>>123390291
Yup. The usual cheaters on DaS1 mostly get off to hatemail on the steam forums, the game is secondary to it.
>>123388657
Give me first person spell casting, that way I don't need to use lock ons with spells.
>>123390587
Even then, what's the point in getting hatemail if you just cheated it up?
I'll bet those are the same people who act like retarded assholes on 4chan and then claim victory because someone took the time to call them a retarded asshole.
Oh well, I just d-con on those people if I don't think I can push them off a ledge. If I ain't winning then ain't nobody winning.
Why the fuck is the bonfire to Iron King so fucking full of knights and ledges
>>123390282
Binoculars were acting up more during testing, but I'll probably use it once I get everything working more stably.
>>123390440
>do you even go by anything? or should we just call you dusk-kun?
It's been a long while since I posted anything about DaSII, so it would be weird for me to keep going by Zullie.
ALERT
SCHOLAR OF THE FIRST SIN IS 50% OFF
FINALLY I CAN GET IT AND FINALLY COOP AND INVASIONS AGAIN
>>123391384
Iron king?
He has 1 enemy and 2 ladders what the fuck, also how are you dying to iron king in the first place?
>>123391509
I bought Dark 1 for 2 dollars in a Humble bundle.
I am going to wait for a similar price.
That feel when you plug all invaders who try to troll you.

Git gud in general
>>123391627

>>123391442
zulie? i think i've heard about you quite a few times. i'm relatively new to the general (i think since this august or around there). what about beatrice?
>>123391736
I'm just giving examples.
I personally used to farm him for sunlight medals.
>>123391650
Just stand behind the wall
>>123391212
Yes. It's mostly a circlejerk of 3 people on steam forums.
It would be good if Watchdog had an option to block individual cheaters who weren't detected. I'm afraid it would become an "I don't like this person" button, though.
>>123391509
Wait until it's one of the Daily Deals at least, the price might drop even more.
>>123391627
Lmao. Are you that guy who sits waiting on top of the high spiral staircase in painted world with WotG and soulmass and refuses to move? The guy that disconnected instantly when I knocked his dumb ass down from there with my greatbow?
>>123391865
Dusk is fine, really. I just went with the dress I liked.
>>123391520
>He has 1 enemy and 2 ladders
I must be using wrong bonfire, where's the closest bonfire?

I don't know if there is anything more boring. HF with your autism.
>>123392179
Shit I forgot about it, great now I have to wait even more and have to check for the daily deals fuck
>>123391384
dumb grirshposter, it's easy to bait the king into attacks that leave him exposed.
when he does fire attacks stand behind the wall and wait for him to start up the beam. dodge the beam and hit his arm for a while. if he goes underlava, stand near the entrance and as soon as he emerges, book it for the wall.
there, you can beat him with a broken broken straight sword +0
>>123392385
>implying im not just there to fight twinkers
>>123392283
The small rectangular room with spikes on walls and fire breathing heads, there is a ladder that leads up, then another ladder that goes further up still.
A bonfire and a lever, the lever disables all the fire breathing bull heads the bonfire is self evident

It ain't 2011 anymore, buddy. Twinking in burg isn't what the cool kids do anymore.
>>123392516
Go back to bed baby, its okay no mean monsters under the bed.
Why don't we massively mod the games to fix the issues, especially DS2?
Or would that require us creating our own servers since we changed the game too much?

>>123392619
You just seem like similar type of a guy. You probably go cry to your mommy when someone invades you and goes to sit on a narrow walkway with a 2-handed greatshield.
>>123392684
There is only so much you can do with CE, the things people dislike most about DS2 are not easy fixes
Fuck crystal lizards. I'm in dragon aerie and there are two fuckers that I can't kill. I want to murder the person who thought that this kind of "enemy" would be a good idea
>>123392619
its fine, you saved me (maybe) some more money. I would have ran off tomorrow morning to load my credit card to get it otherwise

What are some dark souls 1 weapons that have interesting attacks/animations?
Stuff like the grant/dragon greataxe.

I would tell you, but I don't want any degenerates ruining my online experience.
>>123394294
Is that just RTR + DMB, or is power within involved?
>>123394434
about 50 I think
>>123394474

You can see the hp draining AND red tearstone ring activating as the purple icon on the top left.
Still it's pretty cool
>>123394294
Love the Ricards. Is it the only weapon with which it is not worth it to riposte after a parry?
>>123394294
and people say that cheesing in DeS was bad lmaoo
>>123394559
>pvp hotspot
now listen here you little shit, back when i was a whippersnapper the hotstop was townshit. Idk where you kids gather today. especially on pc.
>>123394714
jokes on you when i was a whippersnapper the kiln was the place to be
>>123394681
High risk, high reward. He would have died if he had fucked the parry up, or if his damage had fallen a bit short.
>>123394423
holy shit thanks!!
>>123394864
np buddy, hf ;)
now can you kindly fuck off back to reddit and never come here again?
>>123394681
I wouldn't really call it cheesing since despite being buffed as fuck he had to parry the jump attack which is pretty fucking hard to do
>>123394798
I was on kiln back before PC version was released but it was filled with h4x0rz. Gave up pvp for a while after that.
>>123394798
>>123395064
you little snot faces when i was a nibblenabble 4-1 was where it all went down
>come back to DaS1 and the PvP is better than ever

It's just not the same. What point does anything even have any more? The magic... is gone.
>>123390440
not him but you can remove or replace the aim easily
>>123395474
Some faggot twink wrote on my steampage because he got rekt by my character who was basicly naked with an +3 Uchi, he had posion and all those shit pyromacies and was thinking hes a real baller when he suddenly started bleeding his ass out and I fuck his ass sideways. Deserved fagtron
>>123395560
do you mean the crosshair? that is easily replaced. i thought you meant the arrow slot

>SotFS upgrade FUCKING FINALLY on a decent sale
Fuck yes. So which magic school has the most interesting spells? Miracles, Pyromancy, or the different Sorceries? Also what's up with all the Int+Faith scaling, is a character with both stats leveled viable?
Been playing DS2 for a bit now.
How much do I need to level ADP for the roll to be like in DS1?
>>123396609
Well, theres Dark which scales off both faith and int. Sometimes yoyu need a chime, sometimes a staff to cast a spell. But there are items that allow you to cast both
>>123396609
If you want pure sorcery, go magic and work your way up to Hexes. Pyromancy and Miracles are good as sub abilities later in the game, each have their strength and weaknesses. Dark scaling(Int+Faith) if you couldn't tell is only really useful when you have a decent amount of levels with you.
>>123397475
Is there any reason to go pure faith?
I thought they nerfed miracles to shit-tier levels?
>>123397598
Pure? not really, from what I remember. I haven't gotten into SotFS that much, but I doubt they made them better. What you want to pick Miracle wise is the Lightning spears, maybe Heavenly Thunder if you like it, Sunlight blade, and Great Magic Barrier. To even use some of these you'll need a high faith level, so it's more a late/ng+ mechanic now
holy shit i found an actual newbie, i came upon him spamming the FUCK out of the black crystalignore my graphics and res, i dont have a graphics card right now
>>123398446
I dont know but I invade into noobs constantly, even before sale.
I also do the noobfriendly darkwraith, I have my weapon with raw infused tho
>>123398446
i didnt even get to kill him, he fell off the edge
he actually got a parry on me, which was impressive. he couldnt follow up with a riposte though.
>>123398557
eh, ~200 damage is enough not to decimate their health but enough to intimida
>>123398446
haha look at this faggot's res
>>123398626
I just infuse my weapon in case I invade some faggot that is obviously not a noob
>>123398634
:(
>>123398723
yeah i might do that myself actually
>>123398806
Good luck grinding, setting up the character was a huge pain in the ass
trying to make a lifehunt/grim reaper build. should i go for 61 poise (http://mmdks.com/7sez) or for ninjaflips( replace wolf for dwgr)? for RP purposes i feel that 61 poise would be better (unyielding death and that shit) but i also like the idea of flipping around all spooky. in the pic are my most prominent ideas. there is a color difference between dark/black sets, but you can see it matters little. if you have any suggestions they're welcome. fashion goes first but i'd like some practicality too
>>123398723
you can keep a backup for those. also
>infuse
I just bought das2 and i got a few questions
Do people still play the reg version i bought it cause i dont think my pc could handle dx11 it runs smooth tho as hell.
Is it true u get banned for usin x360c?
>>123400251
Whats the problem with infusing? I have a Raw+5 which is just fine against noobies but infused just as good against some faggot
>>123400586
Playing regular DaS2 I barely get coop to nobody. PvP only on bridge, at least where I found people on my SL. It feels kinda empty desu
>>123400750
so i fucked up
>>123400750
im pulling your leg but it's upgrade, not infusion. completely different mechanics
How to make a successful sorcerer build in DS2? Also, any fashion tips for female?
>>123401382
Pure magic will get your ass raped in DaS2, you absolutely need some sort of backup melee weapon. Go for an INT build with an infused craftsman hammer as a backup weapon imo.
What are Scirvir's stats? I want to oneshot everything with less than 900 HP with single Fireball
>>123400982
Sorry, should have worded it right.
My weapon is raw +5, but in case theres a twink / non noob I infuse it with Charcoal Pine Resin
>>123397598
You can get your faith up to 50, get sunlight spear, heavenly thunder, great heal, gmb, and sunlight blade.
Using the dragon chime I hit 700+ on characters with HT, and 1k with spear.
But its what someone prefers. Faith is strong if you utilize what you got correctly.

I'm really sick and thick headed at the moment so I need a little help.
Does anyone know a good black knight build? I want to use all the black knight weapons and use pyros, I'm mainly PvE and I just don't feel like PvP at the moment, but I'll fight whoever invades me.
Is it better to infuse the BK weapons with fire or keep them at +5 and just use Flame Weapon?
Any help, bros?
>>123401940
>>123402052
Added your link on accident.
So much fashion it makes my heart hurt. Thanks alot anon.
>>123401839
oh dude wtf. you mean resin/buff.
>>123402082
i don't play ds2 very much but im pretty sure that fire infuse+flame weapon is pretty much the standard for bk. but what would you even use for armor? i don't remember any looking like the bk set. or did you mean a build revolving around bk's? at any rate, i think you should use some pyros and keep a 20/40 int/fai for the defenses and faith buffs
What's the best weapon to enchant with magic in sotfs?
how would you go about starting a faith build for a new game in dark souls (not NG+) that relies more on miracles than dex/weapon damage?
I figure I can 2hand the drake sword for the first few bosses while slowly upgrading the uchigana until it starts to outdamage the drake sword. This should let me sink all my souls into getting 25 faith and a couple attunement slots really early.
>>123402519
Yeah, I always called it infusing it with resin
guess my stupid ass will just ask for a refund for ds2

Alright.

Dark Souls II vanilla owners on Steam: you can currently upgrade to Scholar of the First Sin for just £1.99 (about $3 USD).
Probably worth it, even though the business model behind it was pretty scummy. The game is no where near the quality of DeS, DaS and BB, but it's still a fun game in its own right and has some real good PvP. SotFS allows for 3v3 too.
Kinda never really bothered with invading in any Souls game, despite having played hundreds of hours of all the games. How exactly would you invade new players in Burg? Don't you have to be a low level, within their range, to even invade them? Don't they also have to be human anyway?
>>123405453
Where do you see this? I only see 50% for the full game, no cut for vanilla owners
>>123405453
do you gotta have ds2 installed to play ds2 sotfs

>>123405770
Guess it's been fixed. I'm glad I managed to grab it though, the original price was way too high for something that should have been there to begin with.
Just Bought Dark Souls:Prepare to Die Edition for 5 bucks on steam, does it still need the DSfix?
I remember when i pirated it that I was unplayable without it.
>>123405704
yeah, 1-20 is a good SL to invade burg and parish
ive been invading the parish and ive been getting back to back invasions, its almost as if it was launch day
>>123406359
Lucky you, look at this shit.
It's swiss money btw
>>123406551
this is why we fight wars anon
>>123405770
>>123406359

Oh wait, no, it's still showing as £1.99 for me if I look at the Steam store from my account. After some further research, it might only be that price if you own all DaSII DLC.
>If you already own Dark Souls II on Steam, you can upgrade to the DirectX11 edition of Scholar (since the current version is DX9) for $30; if you own Dark Souls II and all the DLC, you can upgrade to the DX11 version for $20.

I loved the fang boar my first playthrough. I reset twice trying to get it. Thought I was the shit trying to get some fashion to not fatroll while wearing it.
>>123408956
yeah, i admit i was a fatrolling fuck with the knight shield, halberd, and fang boar helmet too
>>123408619
Good old times
Please help me with fashion for a caster wearing retainer's robes. I just need leggings mainly, not to worried about the headpiece.

Good news everyone!
i upgraded to softs and it does run good my pc.
Now to fix this controller issue im using a usb box with a ps2 controller any ideas?
I herd tho xbox360c gets u soft banned.
>>123411560
>I herd tho xbox360c gets u soft banned.
Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't. I don't use xbox360c, but I use the deadzone fix and I'm not banned.
Do we not know enough to know if parrying in Ds3 is like Ds2.
Figure if so i'd git gud at it.
>>123412281
Literally every mechanic like that was reverted back to the way DaS1 did it, right down to the animations. I am a DaS2fag but I have to admit I'm excited since DaS1 did parrying way better.
Kicking is returning too.
>>123406451
I play both Dark Souls with a keyboard
>>123412406
tfw played 400 hours of vanilla das2 with a keyboard
>>123406451
It doesn't need it, but there's no reason to not install it. Except maybe if the disappearing sun bug bothers you.
Does SOTFS run fullscreen at 120hz now? I got it when it came out and it refused to run fullscreen on my 120hz monitor so i refunded it.
Is it fixed? or should i just set my monitor to 60hz to play it like i do for das1.
>>123412541
Are you me?

>dark souls 2 and scholar of the first sin run flawlessly on high settings

>still ugly as fuck
How on earth do you people play this game on PC?
Good thing I played a lot back when it came out on the xbox.
>>123412846
What do you mean low framerates? If you have DSfix you should be golden.
>>123412406
I havent played Ds1 in over a year, plan on revisiting soon.
In Ds1 is parrying a reaction or what? I'm going to have to boot it up to check it out.
Thank you.
>>123412956
>In Ds1 is parrying a reaction or what?
What do you mean by that?
>>123412758
Just run it in a borderless window, Anon.
>>123412846
Perhaps your PC just can't run it? Enabling the framerate unlocker should fix things like low fps Blighttown.
>there actually are people who "practice" Souls PvP
>>123408619
I've ran into two or three people from the golden age in the past six or so months.
Wonder what all the other fuckers are doing.
>>123413126
definitely worth getting the upgrade over playing through vanilla das2?
>>123413384
If you want to play online, or if you REALLY liked the PvE of 2, then you can get softs for the enemy placement remix.
>>123413716
I have vanilla but i lost motivation towards the end and stopped playing, and if im gonna restart i feel like i might as well play through sotfs instead of vanilla.
>>123408619
>have only been recognized once in the past two and a half years
I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing.
>>123413253
all dead anon
all dead
>>123413818
Then I would just play vanilla. There isn't a lot of difference between the two versions. The new enemy placements are only meaningful if you already know where everything is placed in vanilla.

>>123412915
dsfix only increased the performance slightly
but given it was abysmal, the game was still unplayable
>>123412846
For some reason, when I play DaS on PC, sometime the framerate will be at 30 fps, sometime it will lock at 15 fps without me doing anything. If I go to a different zone, it will be back to 30 fps, and when I return, it will still be 30 fps. But then I quit the back at this area and come back, and it's 15 fps. For information, I mapped the fps lock option between 30fps/60fps at a different button than backspace, and I am playing on a controller, so it shouldn't do anything anyway. The worst part is that sometime, I get good fps in Blighttown.
>>123413853
who are you anon
>>123414501
I liked your story. Do car CD players usually play MP3? My CD was just filled with MP3 files instead of CD audio for some reason. The music of DaS2 was one of the better parts of the game.
>>123415208
newer ones yeah
>>123415295
what a a blast from the past
>>123414501
Sound and art direction are the only things I can share about videogames with my family, because appreciating them doesn't require an understanding about the game itself, so I really cherish moments like those.
At least we're all on the same page when it comes to film.
DAS1 IS ON SALE
REV UP YOUR WELCOMING PARTIES
EVERY STEAM SALE IS A HOLIDAYor it would be if this series wasn't ded as fuck
>>123416750
still getting constant invasions desu senpai
my dsg can't be this dead
>>123417824
Answer me this then anon, do you have ds2 on ps3?
>>123417965
had, sold it back in 2014
why?
>>123417824
I guess everyone went to BB dlc?
I'm finally picking up DaS2 because of the sale
I'm super autistic and willing to buy both the original and SotFS
Is there any real reason to do so, though? I know a lot of enemies and items were re-arranged. Is it worth it to play through both for the sake of seeing the layout differences? Are there any things that SotFS does worse?
(I know the game is shit either way)
>>123418330
scholar of the first sin includes all the dlc and its only 5 dollars more. sotfs is also more active multiplayer wise
>doing brume tower for the first time ever in sotfs
>cross chain to small tower, npc invades then runs away
>follow downstairs, curse never stops buidling
>enemies don't stay dead and just get back up immediately when their health hits zero
what the fuck is this shit
>guy is in the parish is doing fuck all damage to me
>mess him up a little, he uses up all his estus and his 1 humanity
>notice hes using rapier and bandit knife
>hold back on him, doing repetitive movements to let him get crits
>eventually start doing jump attacks and let him get easy backstabs on me
>he bleeds me and i die
>point down emote
naw come on now dont be like that
I can't find ANY invasions at all, am I bunned?

>he doesnt know about maldron
as for the other complaints, thats all on you
>tfw depopulation due to holiday AND Bloodborne DLC
A-at least there'll be a resurgence early next year.
Where are you kiddies?
come to ShivaSL32 might be a bit high
How do I mod SotfS? NMM keeps asking me for a "Virtual Install" and I have zero idea what that is.
>>123419764
there's a steam sale for DaS1 and 2
you'll be fine unless you're a console kiddo
>>123419945
I'm playing the late-game, tho; I won't notice a thing. I'll just have to finish lonely and come back in a few months.
>>123420114
just make a twink and hang around early areas
>>123418056
I wanted to play with you but you broke my heart instead
>>123419815
hell yeah it is
>>123419132
There's a burning lady that ressurects them.
I bought scholar of the first sin last night, and today it's 50% off. I am broke till the end of the month so I can't purchase it and request a refund. Is there a chance of getting my 15 dollars back?
>>123421148
I'm pretty sure you can request a refund on the full-price purchase and then use that refunded money to re-buy it at the discounted price
Steam specifically allows that in their refund policy
"Being broke" should have no bearing on that since you're re-buying it with the refunded money
>>123421148
whats stopping you from requesting a refund? im pretty sure a game going on sale just before you bought it is one of the refund reasons you can provide
>ds1
>invading in parish at lv19
>first invader is sitting at spawnpoint, dark artorias sword and havels
>second was actually a good fight, but since im using a slow weapon vs sks i lose
>third i got cursed as i was loading in, never even saw the host
man am i sure glad i reinstalled dark souls
>>123422556
try actually playing the game instead of booting it up as an invasion simulator
>>123421685
>>123421729
I submitted a refund with a reason "game is now cheaper" and left them a pity note in the note section. Hope they process it before the end of sale.
