Also, I've got a few questions about raid mode since it seems like there are others who are waaay farther along than I am. I'm playing on PC right now and Can anyone else not connect to the internet parts of it right now? The online store, the leaderboards and every time you finish a mission you have to wait like 30 secs for it to try and upload before a screen pops up saying "couldn't connect yada yada" is that just something that'll be fixed once they open up online co-op or what? Also, I've heard from people who can access the online store that you can buy certain guns there, I know the Tommy Gun was one and I think the triple shot pistol was another. If those only show up all the time in the online store and sometimes in the normal store, does that mean you flat out can't get them from gold chests in game? Also, I was lucky enough to get a speed load tommygun which is loving amazing. Slapped a lvl. 4 anti-recoil on it along with a level 4 merciless and mundane killer on it and now it tears through normal mooks like a loving chainsaw while having basically nonexistent recoil even when going full auto. Plus speed load has the added effect of lowering rate of fire by a bit which normally sucks but with the tommy gun's normally obscene RoF it actually helps to make it manageable.

You can get any of the guns currently being offered for real world dollars by playing the game normally. They turned off the servers for stats to 'fix' a problem everyone has been having that forced them to play the game entirely offline in Raid Mode. The results screen would softlock the game as it uploaded your stats infinitely.

I don't have a problem connecting to the internet. So I don't know what is going on there. The online store is nothing like the in-game one. It's a bunch of level 25 weapons and low level parts. Doesn't change at all. It's for people with more money and less time and sense. You can find the weapons in the chests as well. They are NOT exclusive to the store at all.

Try fitting it out with burst mode and rate-of-fire upgrades, it empties so fast recoil is barely an issue.

InequalityGodzilla posted:Huh, I never got softlocked when I played online. It'd just sit there saying "uploading" for a while then say connection failed and ask if I wanted to try again. I'd say no and it'd let me go on as if I were offline. Full burst could be good on a Steady Shot TMP because it always behaves appropriately but I just don't use automatic weapons so I've never seriously attempted anything with them.

Resident evil's thing is cartoonishly unrealistic viruses, not cartoonishly unrealistic nanomachines, son. Also I just tried getting an S rank on episode one, how loving accurate do you have to be? I got 73% and unless they can improve the performance I doubt I'll be able to get much better. Edit: Wait, I'm on PC. There's like a 90% chance of someone creating a hack or save file with all the stuff unlocked anyway. InequalityGodzilla fucked around with this message at 20:35 on Mar 17, 2015 |

You joke but I would love a game that marries Revengence's "I don't think that's how nanomachines work" silliness with RE's "I don't think that's how viruses and parasites work". weirdness. I could imagine Raiden and Albert Wesker could have a bitching duel inside of the ruins of a giant spider robot in a volcano that is actively erupting. Edit: Last episode and the two bonuses just popped up on the PSN store, got it started downloading so it's ready when I get home from work.

A patch popped up for the PS4 version today, notes say it enables online and fixes "performance" issues. No clue about PC-side.

I give Helena poo poo for being a Secret Service who gets the President and most of a city turned into zombies because the bad guys held her sister hostage. You're supposed to be the toughest of the tough when you're Secret Service, like tough as Steven Seagal makes himself look.

Helena is the best because her stealth attack is an elbow drop to the face and her coup de grace is a loving drop kick and she also does a flying head scissors takedown.Solomonic posted:Let's get to the lab first, and then he'll tell you

I was really stoked with this game's whole storyline and I hope they don't just forget about and drop it for ten years like they usually do before remembering to haphazardly address the loose ends they left. I'm fully onboard with Resident Evil's retarded yarnball of lore and I love when the series continues to embrace it. I'm impressed they've held off rebooting so far, and I hope they continue to. This game also has their best monster designs since the original run of games, for my money. They weren't afraid to ape off of Silent Hill this time around and it paid dividends. man nurse fucked around with this message at 00:47 on Mar 18, 2015 |

Yeah, I never thought to hang on to them as Claire. They throw you one free one for the first one, but I didn't find any more so it became "poo poo the screen's blurry, fire ALL THE BULLETS EVERYWHERE". Which I guess adds to the tension or something but ugh. My retry rank

Good Lord Fisher! posted:Yeah you really need at least 1 smokescreen bottle for that or you're gonna be real sad. Eh not really all the instakill fly enemies are on narrow linear corridors, I just pitched an explosive grenade where I thought they were and sure enough I'd kill em. It's not like explosive grenades are terribly useful to begin with, I was sitting on 10 of em. I did admit it caught me off guard about twice the entire run with SURPRISE I'M BREAKING YOU IN HALF AND making GBS threads MY BABIES ALL OVER YOUR CORPSE Claire's episode 4 was more epilogue of her side of the story considering there was only about 4 enemies total and most of the episode is her booking it out of the tower. Barry's episode 4 compensates for that by being SUPER loving long. Easily as long as his first two episodes combined if not longer. Just about when I thought it was time for a boss fight the game says 'NOPE, HAVE A SECRET UNDERGROUND MANOR FUCKER' and keeps going for another 45 minutes. That last boss was pretty great fun though. All in all, I really liked this package, definitely worth it for $25 for the story alone. I guess I'll probably start the bonus chapters tomorrow.

Sadly that doesn't work for enemies tagged with the invisible skill. I just spent way too long looking for that last guy on one of the Gauntlet VII maps that features a bunch of invisible enemies. Gauntlet VII is probably the most  one so far. The protect the crystal map is the least tense tower defense level there is, just a small area with enemies spawning from two far away points that slowly shamble toward the crystal.edit: Didn't know about the raid/campaign enemy differences Sivek fucked around with this message at 03:24 on Mar 18, 2015 |

Sivek posted:I feel like an idiot because it took me forever to figure out that just training your gun on the glasps, as long as they're in the hit target area, makes them visible. I didn't figure this out until one of the raid mode levels that features a decent bit of them. I could of saved a lot of Barry campaign ammo. The enemies work differently in campaign and raid. So mousing over them with Barry wouldn't do jack. Also the invisi elites are spotted by mousing over them. What might've been the problem was it was a zombie crawling on the floor. Even though the enemy is lying down, the bar stays at the same height.

Lunethex posted:There are two endings to Rev2. So knowing this, is it possible to do just Claire's part of Episode 3 then immediately go Barry 4 and see the good ending? Seeing the "bad ending" just now makes me want to see what exactly changes. Barry's part when on way to long but at least the final boss wasen't as bullshit hard as in Rev 1's a bit less interesting because of that but it was a good enough boss at least. Barry's quote right before the fight is probably one of the best lines in this whole series YOU"LL NEVER HAVE HER, SHE-WESKER!

Seeing the "bad ending" just now makes me want to see what exactly changes. I actually did this accidentally – I was ready to get the bad ending but ran through Claire3 thinking it wouldn't matter until I did the intermediate episodes, and I ended up getting the good ending. So yes, jumping from Claire3 – Barry4 will get you the good ending.

Sadly, I missed the gun at the mine in barry 3. As in, I sent the generator up too high and I could find no way of bringing it back down. So, I've gotta do that whole tedious chapter over again. I do not like the sewers.
