N/P I am glad your enjoying the game. I think most people that give it a chance will like it. Everyone just has to keep in mind its a budget title for $39.99 and well worth it in my opinion.
Your stamina is in great shape considering you havent beat easy yet. Looks like you were smart and collected as many of the dropped items as you could. The higher your stamina the better chances you have of surviving in the harder difficulties. You can also replay any level on any difficulty to increase your stamina. Just make sure you pick up the Health items AND the Armor items because they both increase your stamina. 👍

If you think its intense on easy just wait and see the harder difficulties.
Oh yeah your stamina is way higher than mine which will help you a lot on normal and hard. Hardest and inferno are just brutal and extremely hard. Some of the levels on Inferno are harder than COD2 on veteran.
 
lol i know what you mean, i tried the first level on hard and got destroyed, i could probobly make it through now with the weapons i have.

im still not sure what weapons to use, here are the 2 weapons i use mostly:

weapon 1: AF15-ST (assault rifle)

weapon 2: GOLIATH D1 (rocket launcher)
 
Your assult rifle will be fine but always keep an eye out for upgraded rifle guns. There are also sick shotguns too and I posted a couple videos of the weapons in the first post.
The rockets we usually rolled with for most of the game were the Cascade 1 rockets. Those work well on the round flying ships that you shoot from the bottom. Some of the weapons we used the most are the ones I made videos of. You will keep unlocking more weapons all the time. TOward the end of hard we unlocked a couple grenade launchers that would do 20,000 in damage and sometimes it still wasnt enough to stop the enemy. And that was with 2 of us playing as co-op. Your in for a heck of a challenge by yourself when you get into hard. We had enough after doing hard. Hardest and inferno just got more frustrating than fun. You would probably need around 10,000 stamina to beat inferno.
 
damn 20,000 damage ??? lol my highest granage launcher is only 400 damage :crazy:

i also wonder how high the stanima goes ???

Yeah we both had to grab that gun to do a couple of the levels. Its called the Splash Grenade Launcher. There are videos of those guns in the first post of this thread.
The gauge goes to 9999 but you can actually go higher than that. It will just show 9999.
 
DRIFT GOD
i beat the first 4 levels on easy,normal,hard and my stamina is 1062 now ;)

Thats probably a really good way of beating the game that I never tried. We just went 1-53 easy then did the same thing for normal and hard. Doing it the way you are would get your stamina way up by the time you got to the last few levels on hard.
Also doing some of the harder levels will help you unlock real powerful guns that you can use on easy and normal. We beat Hard with only 1500 stamina and it was brutal!! lol

If you go here http://www.d3press.us/files/Earth D...ough/Walkthrough_and_Weapon_Desc_EDF_2017.doc
There is a full list of every weapon, the weapon power, when you get it, how you get it, and even walkthroughs. We never used the walkthroughs but the weapon list came in handy. Its anything you would ever need for this game.
The Genocide gun is 1,000,000 damage (yes 1 million) and is only unlocked by completing the game on inferno. There are also videos of this Genocide gun. When it shoots its like an atomic bomb and blows everything up. Sometimes including yourself even if you have 9999 stamina. lol
 
I finally rented it today, I must say I'm very impressed with it. Me and a buddy of mine played for a couple hours in co-op, some of those battles were freakin insane, we were hooting and hollaring the entire time. I don't think I'll buy it, but since I have Blockbusters game pass, I think I'm going to try and beat it.

I do enjoy the cheesy sci-fi movie feel to the whole game, it's so over the top it makes it fun.

One thing I can not figure our though is how to get into vehicles.
 
Joey,
I am glad your enjoying the game. To get in and out of vehicles press the back button. However most of the vehicles dont work real well. If you get into the helicopter you can jump out on top of any of the buildings in the entire city. I showed a couple videos of doing that in the first post.
 
Alright thanks, I want to get through most of it between today and tomorrow
 
You can get through easy mode in about 6-8 hours depending on how many items you pick up. Then to go through on normal takes another 6-8 hours. Hard takes about 8-10. Then after that it is extremely difficult and much much more time consuming because you need to get your stamina much higher to survive. Inferno mode is way harder than COD2 on veteran. On veteran each red ant has 5,000 stamina. Then you have over 100 of those coming at you....
We quit after we beat it on easy, normal, and hard. And we beat it on both our 360s. :)
 
I tried the first level on all the difficulties, easy and normal weren't bad, but once I got to hard it was pretty hard. I have to agree that I've never seen so many enemies on the screen at one time.
 
Just wait until you see the very very last boss battle. Its still the most chaotic boss battle I have seen in my life on any system. I posted a teaser videos of it. You will want to play all the way through on easy. Then normal then hard. If you have the time. You unlock some sick weapons in hard. Some of them do over 20,000 damage.
