Wow, they completely ruined the coop in this game compared to Demon Souls. Apparently it puts you in random servers and if your friends don't somehow end up in the same one, you'll never get to summon each other. Boo. It's why I loved the first one. Summoning random people that I can't talk to is gay.
Yeah, and a metal case..lol People over a cheapassgamer have been freaking out about best buys and gamestops not having CE's in stock. And I guess some Amazon pre-orders are also not CE versions now because they ran out of them. Which kind of sucks because that was a pre-order bonus, but the CE version is pretty lame IMO so there's nothing to really get upset over if you don't get one.
Just buy the regular version and download the mini-guide "somewhere", and you're all set.

There's plenty to be upset over. If you order a CE, you deserve to get a CE.
I really wanted the art book, so I wanted the CE.
it is not "gay", it is the intention of the developer to make you feel isolated. Sitting on skype and voice chatting with your friend through the game doesn't get the "vibe" that the developers want for this game.
people abusing the system in the first game caused them to use multiple servers and limits on the level difference. this now causes a lack of souls traversing into other players instance.
I'd trade my CE content (including an unused code) for a $15 or $20 amazon gc..
I don't know how summoning your friends to help you is abusing the system. I know they want you to feel isolated, but if that's the case, why allow the ability to summon someone into your game?
And even if party chat and stuff is disabled, at least let me talk to whoever I summoned so we are on the same page with what we need to be doing. It just feels so disconnecting to see a phantom player running around with no way to communicate other than some basic gestures.
I got the CE.
Man my PS3 can't handle this game. FPS drops so bad is some areas. I'm all for making games look better but not if the hardware can't handle it...
Yeah, I get frame-rate drops in some areas too. Anybody else? I have a 60GB fat launch model, for the record.
It happens on all systems psfat, pslim, 360. There are a few areas that are really bad but it isn't bothering me as much as maybe it should be.

It isn't terrible or game ruining. Just occasionally noticeable.
Occasionally noticeable? Hah! Wait till you get to blighttown.
Still, the game is fantastic.
Slow and steady is a good policy for this game
Got my cleric to lv 17.. I think I'm close to ringing the first bell.. I heard another player ringing it... so I'd hope that I'm close.
Mace upgraded to +3.. need to improve my armor.. still in my chainmail that i bought from the first vendor..
I picked up a whole thief set of leather armor from a random corpse in one of the houses.. might be worth using for bosses where I need more mobility..
Anyone else here get to that area in the forest that you use a seal to open?
The guys there give me 1k and 2k souls each and they respawn when you camp. Seems like a bug to get that many souls from a kill. Plus with a campfire right next to the door, I really don't feel like dying matters as much anymore because I can just go get all the souls I want there. 10 minutes there is 10k+ souls easy.
It's not a bug but it is too easy to farm souls there. Just like all the lamers using the Drake sword. From shouldn't have allowed that to happen so early.
