Ryse Son of Rome

So today's update added 2 arenas for free. Also the first DLC is available. It has 2 more arenas and 2 skins, Commodus and Centurion.

anyone play this since the update? Maybe it's just me but the MP seems a bit more difficult which is good. Also I like that the leaderboards are up. One guys has almost double the amount of kills as the guy in second. Doesn't have a lot of xp though. Does anyone know if the leaderboard includes single player, or is it just multiplayer? I haven't found anything on that.

The DLC is available? Pretty sure the skins and stuff were just the update as well as my friend who plays it got those as well and he doesn't have the season pass and didn't buy the DLC .

The skins shouldn't be in the update. The DLC is right there in the store and those skins are included. IGN has an article up on the details.

Just checked and I don't have the skins. Your friend must have bought it or the season pass, there's no other way.

Hm interesting. Wish it would've told me something about using the DLC on my season pass. Didn't give me a message or anything just updated. Also I paid 20$ for the season pass and the first DLC is 4$?
 
Just finished Ryse on Legendary. It wasn't that tough but it was a decent challenge. It was nice that i actually had to try this time.

After playing both this and KZ shadowfall ...KZ wins handsdown and twice on Sunday graphics wise. I will say this at least about Ryse, it isn't a FPS.

Yeah, right. :laugh:

Ryse is the current king for graphics. That goes for all platforms.

Well based on your last several posts, can't say anyone should be surprised :) 343i is doomed!!!!!! XB1 doomed!!!
 
Signed up for a free month of Gamefly. Ryse just shipped.

LOL you probably got the copy I just sent back. IT took them a long time to ship mine and I ended up beating it and shipping it back within 3 days of receiving it. Never even touched multiplayer. I really did enjoy the hell out of the game though. It was like a cool movie. The game was even more amazing because I was in the process of watching Rome as well.

I just finished Rome today, it was a good series like everything on HBO
 
^

Shipping sucks for me too tbh, I end up having to wait a good 4 days for every game to reach me once they ship it. That is a long ass time. -_-

Your kidding right? ....Ryse barely looks better than Gears of war 3 ..I don't know maybe it's my TV, everything has horrible crushed blacks and a screen door effect? Dead Rising 3 look worse than Red Dead ...by a country mile.

I'm on the 2nd season. For some reason I keep getting so angry with that guys family. I can't believe his daughters just put all the blame on him when they were all guilty of playing him for a fool. I'm sad there are only 2 seasons too, It's a really great series. More entertaining than GoT tbh.

Did you recognize Titus Pullo(Verenus's friend) from another series? It took me awhile but I finally figured it out without going online to look.

I just don't see what you're are talking about... maybe I was was expecting much more.. totally disappointed.. great game fun wise
 
Just got this from gamefly yesterday. Stayed up until 2:30 playing it. Reviews were way off on this one. While it's not a 10 or anything, I would give it a solid 7.5-8.

I started on the hard difficulty and you have to stay on you toes. Combat, while not deep, is more involved that I thought after watching videos.

Graphics are definitely the best ever on a counsel. The facial animations are some of the best I've ever seen in a video game (I can't recall a single game that I've played that had better).

Story has been pretty good so far. Part of the reason I played so late.

Single player seems a bit short. I only have 2 chapters to go and I've played for a little over 4 hours.

Haven't tried coop, so I can't comment on that.

That site that gave it a 4 out of 10 is smoking crack

I actually don't recognize him, now i'm curious. Time to google!





I regret sending ryse back so fast. I should have played it again. Oh well, hopefully forza will be enjoyable for me. If not I'll send it back for AC4 =D
