I played up through breaking Craig out of detention and this game, holy poo poo, this game you guys :allears:

Is it just me being early on or do ranged weapons seriously outclass melee throughout the entire game? My Mongorian Bow does 3 hits at 44 damage each, plus fire, and my Billy Club can do 2 hits at 42 each and no bonus effect. It's not even close.

There's eleven gear you'll get soon that boosts the bow and later Amazon patches that basically double your bow damage output .

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

He was joking. Do the Cow right away, waiting for later is kind of pointless and devalues the reward you get.

The Al Gore quest is worth doing but the boss is probably the actual hardest in the game, but not that hard.

Also did anyone else absolutely love the girl council + makeover minigame as much as I did? I found it so funny, especially their Sparkle sparkle SUNSHINE! thing they do.

Barely into this game and it's already cracking me up (caveat: I love southpark and think it's just getting better with age)

When you break poo poo in Stan's house while Randy is sitting around drinking beer in his underwear, the first thing you break he calls for Sharon to come clean up the mess.

The second thing you break he says to you "Is this part of your game too? Breakin' poo poo?" in the hilarious deadpan delivery only Randy does. :lol:

There is more than just that one. I can't remember all of them off the top of my head, but there is one in the abortion clinic and one in Clyde's tower that you can miss out on.

Just finished getting all the friends, all chinpokomon and all equipment/weapons. That last friend was a pain in the rear end because you have to have a certain buddy with you or else they won't show up. You need to take Cartman up to his room to get Polly Prissy Pants. There are 120 friends total.

I am just missing two easy achievements that I glossed over and then I'll be 50/50. This is the only game I've actually bothered to get everything in, but I enjoyed it so much I didn't want to miss out on anything.

I've done everything I can think to do. Nothing seems to be working. Briefly during that second snuke vacuum I can very very briefly use right-click to make something happen, triggering a game-over. Otherwise it does nothing and eventually becomes unresponsive.

Dead weight, just like this post.



So i just beat the game, did anybody else have some really weird glitches start happening once you get to Clyde's Toweronce i beat Craigthe game would hang at a loading black screen but the game was going on behind it.

Then right after i got THAT working i walked into the room where Mr.Slave is tied up and it immediately triggered the nuke going off and the fake credits so i thought that was it and was just kinda stunned

Also oh my god those last couple of boss fights Sparrow Prince was annoying since as a Thief i couldn't just throw Bleed and Burn on him and wait. Was NOT expecting the return of Chef, let alone in Nazi Zombie form

Is it a spoiler when I say that Al Gore is a real dick on Hardcore difficulty? I'm going to guess yes and spoiler it anyway.

When he calls in the Secret Service and they start unloading on you it's all downhill after you fail to deflect a round or two of their attacks.

That fight was over incredibly quickly for me. I was a warrior, with kyle as backup.

Beat on him until he calls backup, then use the ground stomp attack followed by Kyle's Rain of Arrows

Kills the backup almost immediately and stuns the main man himself to finish off easily.

I'm a Thief and only on Day 2 and I don't roll with Kyle yet so that's probably the reason since Stans attacks don't do squat, Kenny ends up dying, Jimmy's buffs aren't helping and I'm not even getting much pay off when I bust out Prof Chaos.

The magic tutorials were frustrating until I realized that the prompt wasn't actually trying to tell you to rotate the left stick back and forth.

Yeah they did a really bad job of explaining that. Magic/farting is just flat out confusing and the prompts they use in the tutorials are misleading. I just don't use it unless I have to for a story section because it seems pretty unnecessary .

By the end of the game I was pulling 5000+ damage hits with a pink vibrator. That combined with the ridiculous armor rating I had (in the ballpark of 300+) and I was a melee juggernaut. My specials couldn't come close to doing as much damage as my standard attacks; only "magic" trumped it. I alternated buddies to set it up too. Butters is EASILY one the most powerful party members by the end of the game, and Jimmy's no slouch either. Prof Chaos did wonders, but so did the ol' Brown Note.

So, I bought the game and I have a really hard time doing the QTE for attacks.
And by hard time I mean that I can't even pass the tutorial, when it asks you to make your first PP attack.

I believe it has something to do with my G19 keyboard and its primitive way of key ghosting.
Anyone experienced anything similar? A Google search reveals nothing.

You never have to skip any of them, you can wait each time and he will finish, it is rude to interrupt a studderer.

I beat him as a Thief on Day 2 with Butters. It's imperative to block his opening sleep attacks so you get a full turn. Pop a Speed pot on yourself then unload Execute in turn 1 to dump some of his armor and when your Speed pot hits nail Gore with a ranged/melee fart attack, preferably one that will give him a debuff(I used a bow with fire strap-on). As Butters pop a Strength pot on your main guy then just whack Gore. He'll call in the troops next. Pop another Speed pot and use the 2 turns to Mug the top agent(with the rifle) and hit the lower rifle agent with a ranged/melee fart attack. Go Professor Chaos on them next and you should have the lower rifle agent on the ropes and dead within a turn or so. If you get the Screwed debuff use a Cure and keep one of the rifle agents stunned as they're far more dangerous than the melee agent. Once one goes down go after the other then you can choose to focus down Gore or get the last agent.

As long as you have 2-3 health/Speed/Revive on you at around level 10-11 you can do it without much struggle. The fart attacks do shitloads of damage, I could almost one-shot the rifle agents with my ranged fart attack. Professor Chaos will also either deal a good bit of damage or buy you 1-2 turns with no damage if you get his shields.

It's definitely the hardest fight in the game but as long as you've been gathering gear and supplies properly you should be fine. There's not a lot of other fights that really require you to pound consumables like this one can so don't hesitate to blow a lot of them. If your main guy is really dealing high damage just constantly use one character to buff him with a Speed pot, attacking twice in a round makes a huge difference.
