Can't customize or buy Devil Breakers
I noticed this during my playthough in Son of Sparda mode. As I was about to fight the Goliath, I called in Nico's van to customize my Magazine. When I entered the menu the tabs for Devil Breaker and Equipment weren't there like they should be. Upon further testing I noticed that I could only customize and buy Breakers during the Prologue mission.

Here is a screenshot: https://imgur.com/gallery/T7nQbzv

I don't really know what caused it, though I suspect it's a rare save corruption since I've verified the files over and over. I'm not too bothered with it gameplay wise since post game Nero is a beast but it's been annoying me that my game has a bug.

Here's hoping CAPCOM notices this and releases a patch as others on r/DevilMayCry have been experiencing this as well.

EDIT 1: This has been reported on Xbox One version as well.
EDIT 2: Image of prologue screen - https://imgur.com/a/5EClKX4 (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

ugh me too.... seen it on Reddit but still no solution around.Reinstalled and resynced my save.hope they see this problem before I reach dmd.

Only reason I'm skimming through community forums right now.

When was the last time you bought devil breakers for Nero?
I think haven't bought any while collecting blue and purple orbs jumping around 10 missions or so

Okay, so i'm not too sure about this either, but

SPOILER BELOW!!

You know how you get that "special" arm in the ending of the game? Where Nico stops the van and gives you a new one that has ALL the arms inside it and you can rotate through infintely? I am pretty sure we were supposed to get said arm, but didn't.

Found a temporary solution but it might not work for everyone and it suuucks.

When you pick the prologue mission and go to customize before it begins you can buy and equip devil breakers. tried it on human difficulty.
This is Mos Def a Bug.

Yep that's what I said in my opening post. Some people can't even customize them during the prologue as said by one person on the subreddit. This issue has been reported in consoles too

whoops sorry. Silly me failed at reading.

Someone already posted it on the long tech bug report thread.
if it's not solved till weekend, I'll open a Ticket with screenshots and all to official capcom support.

You should to by then, so Capcom sees this as a priority.

the same thing, menu for buyng devil breakers disappeared since I finished the 3rd mission, no solution yet
Some news? I had the same problem so I sent directly to Capcom support, but have not yet responded and I doubt they do ... A pity that such work can not be fully enjoyed by it.

Any news, anyone heard anything?? It's pretty frustrating...

Maybe with the Bloddy Palace update?
stiel560 Mar 29, 2019 @ 10:01pm 
Bump. This needs more attention since this bug ruins the gameplay.
DKhaos Mar 30, 2019 @ 4:31am 
How funny. I've sent a support ticket almost 2 weeks ago but haven't received a reply ever since.

Please sent them a direct support ticket at:

http://www.capcom-unity.com/go/capcom/support#

and include pics or links with others who are having issues

or else they might deem it not big of a problem and move on.

Bloody Palace releases soon and if a patch/fix is not included then or shortly after, it might never.

This small bug made me not want to experiment with devil breakers.

Also i sent a ticket to both US and EU branch,
During my Problems with Street Fighter 5, US support had a more substantial answer while
feedback@capcom sent me a copy paste prewritten reply. US used to be quick to reply too.

Maybe Support lost a lot of quality staff over the years.

The Bloody Palace update seems to have fixed this for me. I went for a quick run of M20 and the DB Equip menu was there
DKhaos Apr 1, 2019 @ 4:32am 
Yep, on my end it's also fixed.

Seems like they were aware and just never mentioned it.
stiel560 Apr 1, 2019 @ 7:10am 
Hey, mine got fixed as well.
Glad i didnt reset my save.
I was actually looking forward for the fix more than BP.
Glad capcom fix this.
