Dark souls: Prepare to Die edition

THE TRUE DARK SOULS STARTS HERE

[Gristle]

Reinstalled and did some invading today. I was not prepared for the amount of NG+ players a level 16 Darkwraith can be put against. A whole lot more than a few months ago (which does make perfect sense). I really need to finish farming Chunks and leveling my Pyromancy, but it's a long walk when you don't have the Lordvessel yet.

So few invasions, hopefully there will be better online in DkS2

If you want to do PvP come to the steam group chat, usually have around 14 - 26 members in the chat and almost everyone are willing to do some PvP if asked. Tried to do some Arena DM, got 2 of 3 guys summoned but the last guy was just not paying attention and we ended up waiting for around 1.4 hrs just waiting for him. Turned out he had stayed at the wrong arena for 1 hr. Then when he came to the correct one he kept going on the wrong pad -.-

Having some bad problems with co-op and pvp. At least at the Dukes Archives bonfire I can't see any signs, nor invade anyone after an hour of trying. I feel like the multiplay feature has broken somehow. At the Gargoyles I remember spotting dozens of summons sings almost instantly after switching into human form, and getting invaded almost constantly. Now it feels like the who game has gone completely silent.

Church always have lots of summons and low level DW invaders. I've found some activity in Dukes, but mostly from PVE'ers when invading with my SL 94

[Lennu]

Well, I was surprised how I couldn't find anyone, when the region is the whole world 
Surely someone has to be in human form to invade... 

[Gristle]

Blame it on GFWL.

[Lennu]

Yeah, a friend of mine is playing this on xbow. He told that in one day he did over 30 co-op bosses, got summoned within minutes after placing the summon sign. On PC same amount would take weeks if not months lol.

Check if your upnp is open and ports are forwarded (blame GFWL)

[Gristle]

The best thing about Dark Souls 2 is that it will not use GFWL. I'm super hyped JUST FOR THAT.

So how the hell do you start this game without it crashing? I started it once, it was in shitty windowed mode half off my screen so I changed the resolution and set it to fullscreen in game. Now when I try to start it the screen flickers over and over and I have to alt+f4 out. Tried a bunch of stuff but can't fix it.
