Middle-Earth Shadow Of Mordor Discussion

What's Ninja Gaiden level of frustration is when you're fighting a captain that has gotten really high level tough and you want to kill him but all these motherf*ckers keep appearing out of nowhere. And even even worse,if you get kelled and said captain gets even more powerful.

Monolith,for the love of all that is unholy,in the next game include a f***ing INVENTORY. Goddamn is it frustrating looking for a f***ing flower when you're low on health (shut up about the healing runes,they SUCK!).
 
you call an Orc one of the runes is 10 plus sicends of unlimited kills. Yet to do it yet going to be a killing menhine man. I know it's hard as s*** to brand orcs in a fight wish they had a fast way to do it other then grapping an Orc and holding O. Other orcs always hit man while doing it.

There is a fast way to brand in combat, its a skill unlock, uruks can't hit you while its happening.

Run and change strategy- Just don't run too far. Whenever I find myself in a bind, I'll fall back and try to use the environment to thin the herd a bit. 'Splodey barrels, bees, and caragoors are all great for distracting the little bastards.

Break line of sight, but don't go too far, and get those stealth kills. Draw a smaller group awart and take them out. Draw them near an edge where it's easy to knock 'em off. Climb some walls. Always use your stun move-especially the vaulting one if you can, and keep your Y finger in shape! Know their weaknesses and focus on them.

The game is great because it is genuinely fun and effective to try different approaches.
 
Anyone that has played the game more than 2 days knows that. But more often than not you'll find yourself in the middle of a plain with no caragors or any other help in sight and a whole lotta a******s after your ass.
 
Seems weird of them to make a playable skin of the games 'big bad'...

Power of Shadow contents:
  • Play as the Black Hand of Sauron
  • Epic Runes including:
    • One with Nature - Immunity to Poison attacks from Uruk Captains or Ghuls.
    • Ascendant - Double Focus Time for slow motion ranged combat.
    • Elven Grace - Increased defence which halves the damage of enemy strikes.

Mmm,hooray? Honestly,the only DLC I'd pay for was if it was a whole new area like Black Flag's Cry Freedom. Paying $3 for "Tests" that are just timed events is silly...
 
Yeah, I didn't get any of the paid DLC for this game, i suppose i might if they make significant campaign content, but a couple missions & skins ain't gonna do it for me...
 
Wait, you are aware that in that video he suggests the workaround is capturing a video and then extracting a frame to get a sreenshot right?

Yeah, that's a pretty ridiculous method. I can do it pretty easily, but many people won't know or be bothered. If you want mass adoption, you have to make it easy.
 
The terrain geometry of this game kind of bothers me, I understand why its the way it is, but the blockiness of the more lush areas is just bad. Its for climbing purposes and less taxing on hardware, but maybe when we pull away from last gen it won't be an issue.

I'm thinking they have to make a work around method for people who don't have Kinect since they don't have a dedicated screenshot button. But can't they just like make it so "hold select button" for 3 seconds to take a screenshot or something? Shouldn't be too difficult to implement?

Probably just double tap the menu button or something.
 
Yeah,those plebs! :txbrolleyes:

Easy bruh, I mean no offense, I'm not saying it in any sort of a hostile fashion, if anything I said that out of pure ignorance. I've never even used an xbox one outside of feeling the controller at a best buy kiosk, but I've been under the impression (and comments following your post seem to confirm) that there really isn't a easy way for any & all xbone users to take and share/ upload screenshots. Was said without any knowledge of xbone's features/ functionality, not ragging on xbox at all, I just don't have one to know any better.
 
Damn that sucks, Phil said that feature likely won't come until next year because they're working on it..
 
I really need to crack on and finish this game up. I keep getting side tracked by hordes of Uruks that I feel compelled to slaughter in brutal fashion:grin:

This. I've probably made the game five times longer by getting sidetracked. It's too much fun. I like that my guy is so powerful that I can strut away from a stronghold, but at the same time, I can still be forced to retreat if I'm not careful.

I just did the big hunt with Torvin.

Dis game, awesome. I tried out the Trials of war and chose the one where you have to take out the 5 warcheifs and all 20 captains....WOW! I ended up stuck in a stronghold fighting of waves and waves of Uruks for 40 minuts straight. In amongst those wasves -according to tally at the top- was 3 warchiefs and 11 captains :surprise::surprise::surprise:. 40 minutes straight of kicking ass and taking names....love it:bow:
 
Honestly,the ending was so bleak that I didn't feel like playing again.... Until I tried it with the warrior princess skin. Holy Xena! These guys NEED to make a Wonder Woman game...
 
f*** update the store Sony I want to play this s***. This is where I give it to MS they update their s*** in the morning.
 
Damn just a 1MB file for the so called DLC. WTF that is not DLC at least let me download the data so I feel I got something. Funny they wait so long to put it out when it's on the disc already. Guess they want headlines for having new DLC out.
