Hate that they removed it, only because of the fact you can only take ONE weapon to +10 without it.

And hopefully they fixed the Daughter of Cosmos elevator glitch.

SweatyFlorida3944d ago

I thought you could get 2 of those blood stones per ng?

rdgneoz33944d ago

It's 1 stone per game, though apparently people have found stones in the chalice dungeons as well.

mikeslemonade3944d ago

I better get to that glitch then. Cause I want to take the Kirkhammer and Cannon to level 10.

WildArmed3943d ago

I've found a ton in the depth 4 chalice. So far I have about 6 weapons +10

SilentNegotiator3943d ago (Edited 3943d ago )

People are already talking about NG and getting weapons to +10??

Boy, I've gotta step it up!

MysticStrummer3943d ago

@Silent - I saw a stream last night of a NG++

I just beat the spider boss for the first time yesterday. lol

NecotheSergal3944d ago

That's a sad perspective to have, it means to be careful and only master the weapon you know is the best in your arsenal. I put it on my Cannon :P +10 cannon in PVP helps a lot along with the item that powers it up further for one shot ;P

Slash them a few times, dodge to the side, secretly pull out the cannon to replace the pistol and POOWWW! BOOM KAPOW!! DED.

Also, can't you get Blood Rocks from like, the highest level Chalice Dungeons? Swear you could, I'm beating them one at a time so I haven't seen it YET, there's a LOT of varying cups for every of the 4 types. Regular, Root, Central, Lower, etc etc

NovusTerminus3944d ago

I can't stay with one weapon, in any game. I jump around way to much.

I did not know that, then I have no problems if I can get them from there. I switch weapons every fight almost. And last I heard there was only one Blood Rock, but knowing I can get them from the Chalice dungeon is fine with me.

I beat the game normally and was completing the side collection missions and was going to start duping, but this was here will be fine with me as well.

Thanks for letting me know I can get them.

SoulWarrior3944d ago

Simple, delete the patch and dupe away.

vallencer3944d ago

If you delete it then go back to play online you won't be able too. It'll read your save as being too old. that's how it worked in the souls games. Even demons.

kurruptor3944d ago

What if you prevented the patch from downloading in the first place? Continue to play offline, are you telling me that if you then installed the update in a few days... they would say sorry out of luck and force you to start over?

SoulWarrior3944d ago

@vallencer That's true, you would have to refuse the patch then I guess.

Gamer19823944d ago

as long as you havnt got a save with a newer version your fine to not update and use an older version. You can just refuse to update but it wont allow you to play online until you do.

RedSoakedSponge3944d ago

are you guys really talking about ways to cheat a game? shame on you.

KuroKazuma3943d ago

more simple: just play the game and dont do the fucking dupe shit

OmegaShen3944d ago

Don't believe you, I'm in the 300's in new game plus and I got a few things to max out. If anything the max level is 500.

SpinalRemains1383944d ago

Good. You'll be paired up with all the other cheaters where you belong.

xActionBasturdx3944d ago

I'm sure you're gonna be the same guy complaining about matchmaking issues as well...git gud scrub

WildArmed3943d ago

Clearly he is joking, the game has like seven stats, 99 is the max for each stat.

Simple math shows at most you can go is 693 with 7 stats at 99

thorstein3944d ago

I just want them to delevel all the people that used the glitch.

NovusTerminus3944d ago

Why? Everyone tht power level to max level will only have each other to fight.

Most PvP's are level 70 - 80 (if this is like the old Souls) so what does it matter how fast they got there? Or if they overshot it to max? they won't have anyone else to play the game with at that point anyways.

It doesn't really effect you at all.

thorstein3944d ago

Why?

You don't know if they all leveled to 999 (or whatever it is). And what if they used the glitch just to upgrade weapons?

How is that fair to people who don't glitch?

I could use the exploits to get weapons upgraded and level up to just the "right" level where others are playing and invade and own them.

That's why.

Maxor3944d ago

Because it ruin the sense of fairplay in coops and most importantly, in PVP. The online community as a whole is tainted when there are so many dupers out there.

WildArmed3943d ago

You'll see those builds anyway, dupe glitch or not,

My demon souls / dark souls builds were lv40s and had maxed weapon and the best gear +10.

Ofcourse it took effort to get that unlike duping, but you'll see these builds very soon all over bloodborne.

ChronoJoe3944d ago

You get the stones in chalices. Earn them there, instead of cheating.

Maxor3944d ago

Too bad the patch can't invalid the save files of all the dupers who used yet another exploit for ill gotten gains. This would be fine with these clowns would stay in their own game in singleplayer but the sad truth is that most of them dupe so they can get an edge in coop or PVP.

This is why FROM need to take a serious step forward with this series and add an online only mode. Even if the dupe exploit is fixed the hackers can't be stopped until they keep the save files on the server side.

Toon_Link3944d ago (Edited 3944d ago )

Wouldn't a player of similar level that didn't dupe more than likely be a more skilled player considering they put in the time and learned the mechanics while grinding out there stuff? Cheaters only cheat themselves no reason to be mad at them it's there loss. Anyway if they don't want to grind it out who cares? I don't get people that try to make gaming so serious. I'm going to play it legit and I'm going to ignore PvP cause I'm in it for the single player experience. But if I did come across a duper I'd probably be relieved knowing I will probably put up a better fight than they can.

Edit: I reread your comment and and see your point about offline but I still stand by the fact that a cheater has way less play time and more than likely will get beat down by a legit player.

nitus103943d ago

There is no need for on-line only since if you go on-line the software on the server can/should check for basic cheating.

Providing the players stats match their level and the those stats fall within the minimum and maximum ranges. As an example if the players HP is say 100,000 or more (take a look at the highest sinners in Dark Souls if you don't believe me) then they are very obviously cheating.

Of course this won't stop a cheater from playing an off-line game although it would be rather funny if some of the checking software was also in the actual game.

generic-user-name3944d ago

"I beat the game normally and was completing the side collection missions and was going to start duping, but this was here will be fine with me as well.

Thanks for letting me know I can get them."

Don't believe his lies.

NovusTerminus3943d ago

Then don't, even if I lied it doesn't effect your game at all.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3943d ago

Do chalices. I've maxed 6 weapons so far.

lizard812883943d ago

I wish they would have fixed the long loading times instead.

That's good. I didn't know about the summoning bug in the Forbidden Woods though but I did get the key so guess I lucked out.

wsoutlaw873944d ago

I haven't seen anyone saying it happened to them, but Sony warned about it

joab7773944d ago

Yeah. I didn't think they would. I didnt.

And I know. It's tough when the system is designed for 2 or more weapons. I switch mid-fight quite often.

GearSkiN3944d ago

What about that loading screen

Kane223944d ago

its coming. that is taking a little time.

KwietStorm_BLM3944d ago

I see what...you did there..?

dillhole3944d ago

I must say it hasn't been bothering me that much. It's nice to have time to reflect on what happened and get myself ready to try again.

Kane223944d ago

the loading times aren't as bad as people are making it out to be.

VJGenova3944d ago (Edited 3944d ago )

What about when you just want to go back to your dream and didn't die? Or you successfully cleared a chalice dungeon? Or beat a boss and found a new lamp? What do you reflect on then? How well your blood farming went? How much you totally whooped that boss's @$$?

The load times are not a blessing. If you want to reflect go to your dream to "pause" the game. I'm so sick of people using this as a justification for them.

thorstein3944d ago

I agree with Kane. The game must load every enemy and every breakable object and every open gate and every boss that you haven't defeated, and not load the bosses you did.

That took 20 seconds.

There's a great bit by Louis CK where he makes fun of people "non contributing zeroes" who complain about this stuff. Complaining about the time it takes for a text message to download a video.

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

WildArmed3943d ago (Edited 3943d ago )

I wish they weren't so bland. Demons souls had my fav type of loadin screen.

There really isn't much to think about when waiting for the dream to load or a chalice dungeon :)

The loading time is def some of the slowest I've seeN

MysticStrummer3943d ago

"I wish they weren't so bland."

Yeah they don't bother me much and aren't as long as it was claimed, but they are bland. Someone streamed the Bloodborne soundtrack last night and there were what appeared to be HUD free screenshots as a slideshow. Those would have been cool for a load screen.

Exactly haha. Not worried about duplication bugs, I am not going to use them anyhow. Fix the loading times!

SpinalRemains1383944d ago

The whole 11 seconds when u lamp warp? Oh the horror.

deadfrag3944d ago

Worst what about a fix for the frame-pacing issue that makes the game stutters greatly to the point of completly breaking the gameplay!Its funny how Bungie fix this same problem in Destiny in 24h with a patch and From Software and Sony dont seem to give a damn about it !

wsoutlaw873944d ago

Gameplay braking frame rate drops? I haven't noticed any.

Revengeance3944d ago

Game breaking? We must be playing two different versions because the drops are there but nowhere near game breaking

UKmilitia3944d ago

i have noticved the drops and the audio graphic issues in old Yharnam and while really annoying there not game breaking.
couple in forbidden wood too.

i used the glitch because i was struggling and new to the series.
i wont be playing in the chailce dungeons though so it wont affect anyone else and the main thing is me doing the glitch to make it that bit easier i have loved the game since doing it.

awesome game.

DragonKnight3944d ago

Not enough over exaggeration of frame issue in trolling attempt. 6/10 Polygon.

WildArmed3943d ago

After beating the game three times and getting the platinum, I've never experienced slowdowns during battles.

When loading into a new area, sure. But never in a boss battle or when fighting normal mobs

subtenko3943d ago

Not exactly game breaking, but ANNOYING.

SilentNegotiator3943d ago

The framerate isn't anywhere near game breaking. WTF are you talking about?

BlackTar1873943d ago

Comparing the Billion $ game seller to the 400k game seller and staff is funny.

Dup things with no cost? There was a free way to do it? I seen people have to buy pebbles to do it, if I knew there was a free way I would of done it for the blood rocks.

silvacrest3944d ago

not sure if sarcasm but pebbles cost 10 blood echos each, and even if you didn't want to buy them for whatever reason, just farm crows

DragonKnight3944d ago

You only need like 2 pebbles, which you can get for free by farming some crows or hell just dupe more pebbles.

Sony Remade Demon’s Souls, So Why Won’t It Touch Bloodborne?

The Outerhaven writes: Bloodborne is still one of PlayStation’s most beloved exclusives, but it remains trapped on PS4. Meanwhile Demon’s Souls got a full PS5 remake. But why?

Demon's Souls was a PS3 game.

Bloodborne is PS4 and can be played on a PS5.

There's no need for a remaster.

Relientk7712h ago

I completely agree with you on this. If you want remasters or remakes give us games from the PS1 or PS2 era like Legend of Dragoon.

Eonjay6h ago

I would say thats a personal oponion trying to be passed off as a law. Truth is thre are many people who would love a remaster.upgrade so they can play Bloodborne at 60 FPS. People would literally love that.

shadowhaxor8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

I mentioned that in my article, did you read it? I literally pointed out this is exactly why the game is still doing well, and why Sony has zero reason to remake/remaster it.

And there are plenty of PS4 to PS5 remaster/remakes, to counterpoint that.

Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered
GTA V Expanded & Enhanced
Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut
Control: Ultimate Edition
Death Stranding Director’s Cut
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade
Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection
The Last of Us Part II Remastered

Eonjay6h ago

Either because they technically can't because From Soft wont allow them too, or because From Soft is sorking on the sequal, remaster themselves. Therre is a third option of course and that would be that they are working on it

MinnesotaFatts4h ago

Some part of me wonders if there's some sort of corporate war going on at Sony.

Daver7h ago

I want a new one not a remaster

victorMaje6h ago

TLoU got the remaster & then the remake treatment.
Where is the next bloodborne, or remaster, or remake?

Goodguy015h ago

What it needs is a ps5+pc release. The game absolutely needs a 4k60 update. Lots of money sony is sleeping on while the souls genre is still hot.

MinnesotaFatts4h ago

Tell me you don't know what a remaster is without telling me.

Bloodborne is infamously capped at 30fps on either system--a bizarre design choice given that speed and reaction time is central to the gameplay systems. This capped performance was never patched out officially, unless you jailbreak and mod your console. A remaster for modern hardware, not the infamously finicky PS4 devkits, would be a great way to both hyper-optimize the game *and* drive sales for the PS5, which still doesn't have a system seller title.

There might be some licensing red tape they cant get around?

shadowhaxor9h ago

That'd be interesting, but Sony owns the IP 100%. So, I can't see how that is part of the issue, if there is even one.

RaiderNation5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

Maybe Sony isnt interested in doing it without the assistance of Miyazaki and he's not interested? (Just spit-balling).

MinnesotaFatts4h ago

That's the issue according to FROMSOFT. They'd *love* to do a remaster, but Sony won't even return their calls.

Inverno9h ago

Because they're saving that for the PS6 to lure in all the suckers that will think they're making a sequel, but the whole gen will pass by and From won't ever touch it because Song doesn't care for either Demon or Blood outside of remakes.

Furesis6h ago

Because they made them do something else, then they canceled it and who knows what they are doing these days. They dont understand what they have and honestly i dont think they know what they are doing either.

How bout forget remade and start making new game pls?

And PC gamers wallets always lose :) Gotta upgrade that graphics card constantly because you want to experience all those hyper realistic graphics with solid frame rate LMAO!🤣

Gridknac49d ago

LOL, you upgrade your console every 5-7 yrs. When you do get that shiny new console it has 3yr old pc tech in it. Not to mention 1/2 of your purchased games may or may not work and oftem show very little improvement. If you were to get this type of a remaster from sony, it would cost you another $70. PC can run pretty much any game ever made and will give you the option to remaster it as little or as much as you like for FREE. PC sets the bar and your console attempts the bar 3yrs later.

DustMan49d ago

LOL. I updated my 1080ti to a 3080 for $300 in a part swap. that was in late 2020. I'm still crushing games at higher frame rates lol. Bought the PC in late 2017 with an i7-8700 cpu. Still. Going. Strong. Maybe upgrade next year or around the decade mark.

In the meantime I'll play every game imaginable via emulation, and new releases as they come.

Good-Smurf49d ago

The only reason Sony won't budge with this is that they probably want it to be more than remaster which is how ShadPS4 is doing to Bloodborne right now provided that you have strong enough hardware.

Arslan10049d ago

This article shows how Bloodborne can now run at 4 K and 60 FPS on PC via emulation — a big leap compared with the PS5 backward-compatibility version. and for translation help try: https://www.translationserv...

andy8549d ago

I really dont know why theyre holding on to this so much when its been asked for so much. Unless there'd a plan of a demons souls style remake

Miraak82 49d ago

Probably because their expectations of how much a game should sell is too high now a days, it only hit above 9 mil in sales in the coarse of 10 years. When they have franchises that sell x2 or x3 that number in half the time it's probably hard for them to justify the cost since they've gone the coarse of appealing to the widest audiences ... and Bloodborne isn't exactly that type of game . Even looking at trophies only a small percentage beat it let alone got half way through it sadly .

andy8549d ago

That's because of difficulty and not really much cost in remastering games. Look at what the PC community do for free. Its guaranteed profit for Sony.

Miraak82 49d ago

It's also a Fromsoft game and uses it's own propriety engine so unless they go to FS themselves or remake it like Demons Souls remake it's probably not worth the hassle from them .
