Why is this company doing World of Tanks, World of Warplanes, and War Thunder all at the same time? War thunder just combines them anyway.

I dont see an option in the graphics menu to turn on ddof. Is it automatically on when the game is set to the ultra preset?

So pvp will stop working period if you kill an area boss? So by killin sif thats how I ruined the cat covenenant? So to be clear, the only way to keep pvping is to not have killed the area boss? I thought that only applied for using cracked red eye orbs.

Even with that being said, I have not seen a SINGLE summon sign, red or white, and I've been invaded only twice in my NG+ playthrough and I am level 100 at anor londo at the moment.

Also what about the arena? Does no one use it at all I've never even seen a red ring there.

In my first playthrough I got invaded sporadically, but once I got to the darkmoon forest and joined the covenant I had a lot of luck using the ring and doing invasions there. I was level 40-50 at the time.

However, once I got a little further the invasions and effectiveness of the cat covenant ring waned drastically. At level 70 I couldn't get many pvp matches at all, and I tried all of the different pvp covenants in different locations (mostly the forest). The red summon sign didnt seem to do anything either, someone only ever used it once.

Last but not least I've never even seen a red ring in the pvp arena, let alone gotten a match going.

The only time I consistently got invasions again was in oolacile right after killing Artorias. However, once I killed the boss it didnt seem to work very well anymore.

Can anyone help me out? Im level 95 in NG+ at this point and I really want to do more pvp. I've read a lot of people get to lvl 125 or something to do pvp but I feel like it should be working more than it is. Am I missing something?

Joe, if you pay attention to the intstructions given by the various NPCs they tell you outright where you need to be heading next. The guy right int he beginning of the game tells you that you need to ring both bells to see what happens, that means you need to fight the gargoyle and queelag. After you ring the second bell it clearly shows Sen's fortress opening, which is a not so subtle clue.

After that you are told about the chosen undead etc, and that you need to find the lordvessel in anor londo. Now do that, and PAY ATTENTION to the instructions you get from frampt.

I recommend the plain black knight sword. Its much faster than the greatsword and halberd and I end up doing a lot more damage with it overall due to getting more hits in.

First of all you can only invade/be invaded by people + or - 10% of your level. SO a level 100 could invaded from level 90 to 110. When I got invaded at lower levels I had the same experience as the OP. I don't know how people get their hands on gear like that so early.

Secondly, you can earn a lot of souls and humanity from invading and killing invaders. I got 150,000 souls when I was level 45 or so for besting someone much higher level than me in the darkmoon forest. It was enough to buy enough titanite to max all my gear.

Third, its REALLY fun once you get better at the game. In the beginning I HATED being invaded because I barely had any humanity and was hollow 99% of the time. Now I long for more pvp matches.

Use a controller. I think theres a mouse fix too if you want.

Download dsfix to unlock the resolution and frame rate, and have the ability to add ambient occlusion effects.

Did you look around for fixes at all? It took me 2 minutes to figure this stuff out after I bought the game.
