hey everyone.
I just wanted to know if people here are interested in organizing a GIant Bomb Demon's Souls tournament. If people are interested then just sigh here and we'll see where we go from here. It would also help if someone here has a capture card and it willing to make a nice footage of matches. So like I said before. Write your name here and I guess if enough people are willing to do it then we can all sit down and decide on rules and times.
So it would seem the boards are filled with talker but not walkers. Few are willing to make it happen but not enough. Ohh well was a god try.
MODS PLEASE LOCK!
Demon's Souls
Game » consists of 8 releases. Released Oct 06, 2009
Demon's Souls is an action-RPG developed by From Software and released in 2009. It quickly became popular within hardcore circles for its relentlessly steep difficulty level, deep combat system, and unique multiplayer integration.
Anyone interested in a GiantBomb Demon's Souls tournament?
Say waaaaaaaaaaaaaat
I don't see how this would work, exactly. It has its PVP but that's mostly there as an alternate means for getting your life back, or at the very least to grief someone. I know there's that red soul stone you can use specifically for PVP matchs but it loses what made the PVP so engaging and even a little worrying; what with you knowing you're going into a fight against a player.
" Say waaaaaaaaaaaaaatFrom what I've read from DS forums people take the PvP aspect very seriously. They have all these different PvP builds and stuff they are discussing about, it kinda surprised me.

I'm sticking to killing demons though.
This would be a major pain in the ass to organize, first everyone participating would have to be within a 10 level +/- range from each other, also given the game has no inviting feature the only way to do it is to arrange a certain place to drop a blue or red stone so the other can pick it up before anyone else, also I don't even have the red eyed stone because I didn't went that route yet :P
" Sounds like it will be a huge pain in the ass... The game's just not built with that type of stuff in mind. "Anything is possible if enough people will it. And the game is perfect for that kind stuff in mind. From Software gave you a stone to use so you can challenge other players for fuck sake.
Whatever man. I tried, could have been fun. Not my fault these boards are filled with pansies...LOL ;)
Those of you saying this, are completely wrong. The game has quite a bit of organized PVP going on all the time..it's the whole reason they give you that stone that lets you challenge others.." Sounds like it will be a huge pain in the ass... The game's just not built with that type of stuff in mind. "
if it's like around 60 or so I can probably make do with a new char made just for these events, just gonna have to go through a lot of things again...
You shouldn't get mad at anyone. You didn't bother explaining the specifics. Questions were left unanswered, and the thread is only a day old.
" @Enigma777 said:Sure it is. There's no dedicated matchmaking system or a proper way to keep score. You need to have beaten the game at least once and also be within 10 levels of your opponent. Then you both need to coordinate an exact time and place so you don't end up being summoned by a stranger. Like I said, it's a huge pain in the ass.Those of you saying this, are completely wrong.

I tried it a few times with a friend and we actually spent more time setting up everything than we did playing...
Cool idea, but pass. I'm done with the game, i played it a metric shit ton, and i feel that was enough DS for me. I'm just waiting for Dark Souls, so i can get my ass handed to me yet again.
You have the asian version man. WE DON'T LIKE YOU'S FOLKS ROUND THIS HERE PARTS! ;)" Cool idea, but pass. I'm done with the game, i played it a metric shit ton, and i feel that was enough DS for me. I'm just waiting for Dark Souls, so i can get my ass handed to me yet again. "

If you don't know how to properly execute this, then no one is going to be interested. They asked you questions for a reason, bro.

Given the way Demon's Souls multiplayer is structured, organizing a tournament would be difficult if not impossible. You can only invade another player if your soul levels are within some range (not sure what it is, but not big), and there is no guarantee you will be summoned into a particular game or your message will appear in anyone's game. I mean, it would be an interesting idea, but not practical to execute. If you can come up with a way to do it, I might be interested.
This is my first post in the forum, and I've been wanting to join a Demon's Souls forum.
Well I've been reading the posts on this thread and I think it would be fun to have DS Tourny. If any one is still interested I'd be glad to help host the tourny and record the fights if anybody wants me too
Here's what I was thinking as for the rules
All participants must be lvl 120 and have a red eye stone to join toury btw I read a post that said you need to beat entire game to get red eye stone. Well that is some what true, but Instead of beating the entire game to get red eye stone you can just dupe the stone.
Rules:
- Each player gets 1 SC for all of his fights, or 6 wardings for all of his fights.
- Each player can grass up to 3 times in all of his fights.
- You can't heal between fights.
- You may cure status ailments between fights.
- There are no weapon restrictions other than the banned weapons
- You must specify what will your setup be before the battle starts, and you must keep the same setup throughout the whole event.
Banned stuff:
- Spells/Miracles: Hidden soul, banish, AMF, Acid Cloud, cloak, or anything else that causes stealth.
- Weapons: Scraping Spear, Morion Blade.
- Rings: Clever rat's ring, thief's ring.
- Glitches: Spell switching (or anything that leads to rfs) is banned
I hope by reading these rules it will change the mind of ppl that weren't sure if they would join this tourny
BTW there are lots of place that the tourney can be held. the best place i can think of is 1-3 were the prime evil demon spawns
If any one wants to make a quick PVP build so that you can join the tourney I have a mule with all weapons
sorry for the long post
Sorry for the double post
So no one wants to join the tourny? How about if theres a date to when the tourny will be held ? Will that make anyone wanna join. Yes? No? Maybe?
How about Saturday March 26th at 4pm central time???
I was thinking "IF" anyone joins we can make this tounry a round robin tournament . 4 groups of 6 ppl which i doubt that many ppl will join. If not the tourny can be a single elimination tournamnet
Sorry im just throwing ideas out there
Or maybe someone else has other suggestions for this tourny
Anyone??????
If anyone wants to join post you psn
wow too bad I got to this thread way late. Doing this is plenty doable as my youtube account shows. Heck I ran three of them personally and assisted in so many I lost count. You just have to have enough players, organized hosts who know what they are doing, and patient people because some waiting can be involved. That said sure, if you are worried about getting your butt handed to you I wouldn't get into one. The people that are involved in these things regularly literally spend hours doing nothing but thinking about vids and practicing weekly at the least. I saw one of them kill False King once without taking a hit in fact, while playing a level 60 guy in melee on a NG+ cycle. So yeah they are pretty good at it.
