Okay, Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII has been out for almost two weeks now and I thought it might be time to make a help thread. Please don't get this thread confused with the other Dirge of Cerberus thread, and mods please forgive me if there is already a thread like this or if, for some reason, the Final Fantasy VII help thread is combined with Dirge of Cerberus. So basically, if you are stuck, or are having any problems completing something in Dirge of Cerberus, feel free to ask for help here.

I have trouble with the first boss, i cant beat him. I dunno if it's my lvling, he beats me after 5 attacks ^^;

If you die, keep trying again. If you have to, use all your experience to level up and use potions and pheonix downs whenever you can. If I remember correctly, there are a large amount of crates around the area, you should be able to find a ton of potions, and the soldiers that come from the dragonfly also may drop potions too. Hopefully this helps.

[Anomaly]

I would suggest tryign to get a kill chain going by eliminating the soldiers that the heli drops and then aim for the heli's nose cone. If nothing else, keep your cross hairs on the nose cone and fire away as that is the first boss's weak point.

Ah! but there is a area you can shoot him by without being attacked...i'm not sure where it is,it's between two boxes up some stairs,i think,you will have to duck,and shoot away! if he can shoot you,then it's the wrong boxes,i'll have to check my game and see exactly where it is later

this isnt a question with the game but rather a question about when the hell is it coming out in australia? id like some help with this, thanks.

[Neon Shadow]

Hey guys this game FFVII i am in Australia, what is it like what console PC, PS2, XBOX, GBA??? I am an Australian and i wanna know i think i have seen screen shots and it looks alot like Fire Eblem is it??

Hi,

I'm from the UK and its finaly been released over here. I'm still trying to decided whether its worth getting or not? Maybe someone here can help me make my final decision.

[jenova33]

personally i think its worth it. maybe its just coz i really like final fantasy 7. but if you like rpgs and shooting games, this is one combined. its made for PS2 and also it sort of has the same controls as if you were playing halo. right trigger=shoot, push right analog=scope, etc. Also if you dont really know or ever got to know Vincent's background and what he's all about and you want to know... i suggest you use this game as a source. It tells a lot about him. So yeah, i think it's worth it. If you're still not sure, then try renting it somewhere and try it out for yourself.

What do you have to do to unlock the special features? Does it matter if you play on Easy or Hard mode?

[Silver]

Different modes for different things. There is a faq on gamefaqs if you search for Dirge Of Cerebus. If you see hidden targets in game, shoot them for unlockables. There are more than can be found in the main game mode though. Do the extras.

[Marceil]

You mean all the extra missions after the actual game right?
OK
I can do that ...

[Silver]

And there are targets to hit in the 'actual game' They look like cylinders and if you look closely you'll find them.In the first part of the game one was in a fountain, in the sewer one was in a hole bit in the side of a wall etc.

Hope this helps.

[Marceil]

eh, no-no I'm not talking about the cut scenes.
I already know about all of those and the extra missions during the game itself.
Which by the way ... the cutscenes play even if you don't shoot any of the capsules.

Although I'll admit I'm not the best player.
I was still dissapointed that nothing was unlocked in the menu after I cleared it the first time.
Well ok...
so it unlocked the first extra mission... which I suppose means I'll have to clear all of those to a certain degree to unlock the other hidden extras.

I only have one saving disc so I'll have to start over -- since I can't beat Rosso on the hard setting
But hey this could be a good thing since I'm already at the manor and my lowest score this time is a B ranking.

[vincent_91]

i need help getting past arachnero ive got that far and for sum reason i cant beat him. all my bullets run when i enter with the most amount you can
carry and then when they run out i cant find anything i can do 2 beat him all i can do is keep running in circles and eventually get killed anyone able 2 help?

[Marceil]

he uses his shield quite often if I remember correctly. In the first part the objective is to destroy the flying lanterns that shoot laser rays and to knock the spider arachnero off his perch.

When he finally comes down to earth and does his smoke disappearing act use your special ... as the beast you can throw fireballs with more of an impact. Still arachnero is only vulnerable when his shield is down and wings spread wide.. If he can fire at you/ you should be able to connect back.

Shoot too soon or too late you have to wait again until the next opportunity
Timing is everything in this part not how much ammo you have ..

[H.U.N.K]
