Once the self-destruct sequence is activated, any zombies left that weren't burned or decapitated instantly turn into crimson heads, regardless of time. thankfully there's a kerosine jug right at the start of the lab level. But running that plus those bugs would be rough

It's really hardly something you should bother with, especially considering that the zombies are easily ran past in the first place. I have played way too much remake over the years

I mean, yeah, those are terrible, but games have been doing the whole "Get exclusive weapon/ammo/items only if you preorder at where ever" for years now. I would like to meet the person who makes his purchasing decision based on those pre-order bonuses. I feel like I could learn from him.

But I assume you were talking about in game bonuses.

The only pre-order bonus that ever actually got me to pre-order a game was getting my official Terry Bogard trucker hat for pre-ordering King of Fighters: Maximum Impact. Worth it.

I forgot to mention this when I posted that bonus list. It leaked from a Swedish retailer called "Disc Shop" and apparently the pre-order bonus is ALL of those items. So I assume that they'll straight up sell those items individually but the pre-order bonus is a collection.

Feels like cheating. If thats the case then I would go out of my way to specifically never order from there, just so I wouldn't (presumably) trivialize the early game. See: Saints Row 3 and Sleeping Dogs.

I don't remember if there was a Discard option in the Demo/Teaser thing, but if there's one in the game itself, you could just gather up all your ill-gotten gains and toss them under a couch or something. Even easier, you could just not download the preorder bonus.

I remember the previous Pokemon game had 'get 20 potions!' as a preorder bonus. The basic potion, restoring 20 health. This seems about as useful. Also: iirc, upgrading weapons in RE4 would give you a gratis clip, which was super useful for rare stuff like the magnums.

Going back to it is so much harder than just having started for the first time due to the dynamic difficulty. I can't make it past the bit after the first merchant anymore without dying a few times there for the game to lower the difficulty.

Yeah, I often forget about RE4's dynamic difficulty and it often makes me wonder if I'm good enough at the game or if I die enough to make the game pity me.

New Game plus messed me up. It does a good job of evening out the difficulty, and I hardly remember my first playthrough and how difficult it was. I remember when I was playing through on PS3, enemies were bullet sponges and if they hit me, I lost about 60-70 percent of my health.

It's an odd sensation to think back and remember a time that if i didn't pre-order a certain game i'd maybe not play it for a long time.

I think RE4 does a pretty bang up job with it's sliding difficulty. Just got around to doing a run on the PC HD version after having it sitting around for a few months. Has anyone poked around in the source code for the details of the sliding difficulty? It'd be interesting to look at. On ammo: I maintained 85-92% accuracy through the game, and I'm pretty sure ammo drop rates are tied to accuracy. Miss a bunch and it takes pity and gives you more ammo, so I generally had just enough pistol ammo to kill every enemy I ran into as long as I made use of staggering, kicking, and a little knifing. I'm one of those players that's pretty bad at using the right weapon in the right situation, though. I used the pistol pretty much 95% of everything and the sniper on another 4%. Up until mid castle, anyways, when I finally ran out of pistol ammo and started using my clusterfuck of shotgun ammo. Between the massive amount I saved up and the free reloads on the striker I wound up never actually running out of shotgun ammo. The 100 round upgrade made things a joke. Another thing that was a joke was the magnum and the free ammo from upgrading it's clip. Bosses went from requiring some degree of skill to outright being jokes. On the PC version in particular: I felt like the aiming was by far the easiest with mouse / keyboard, second maybe only to the wii version (though it's been....more years than I'd like to think about since I played it, so could be my memory playing tricks on me as I'm pretty sure while I murked the shooting range in this version I had a little challenge with it on even the wii). Maneuvering on the PC felt more cumbersome. I barely used quick turn at all and the knife much more sparingly than any previous versions. It might also be my lack of playing many first person shooters these days. I was a lot more methodical than previously. Lots more focus on well placed shots and perfect positioning rather than fancy combos and risky moves. Wound up with something like 8 full heals chilling in my inventory post Saddler. I think some time in mercenaries could cure this, but I was never the biggest mercenaries fan. Difficulty wise, the game either isn't set up for methodical game play or despite my lack of reflexes and ingrained gamer "skills" these days I'm just better overall than when I was younger, but it was pretty easy. I had 11 deaths. 3 to Ashley getting pegged by something, 2 to Delago (something about the PC controls -really- didn't click for me there), and 3 to the Krauser quick time fight. That leaves only 3 that I legitimately played poorly and got punished for it. I had some pretty bad lag at the waterfall and the Saddler boss fight. It's not my PC specs as it's a pretty high end gaming pc, so maybe some bad optimization in water physics given the areas they happened in. Other than those two areas, ran like a dream though. All in all, though, I feel the game held up pretty well. It's easy to see why it's so well regarded. To me, 5 felt like 4 except trying too hard to take itself seriously, and 6 was an over the top action movie with fantastic melee combat. With RE7 going back to traditional horror (which I'll enjoy. 2 Was my first and favorite traditional RE game), I'd enjoy seeing a non mainline game that features Leon once more trapped in a B action/horror flick.

Leon Cross posted:I think RE4 does a pretty bang up job with it's sliding difficulty. Basically RE4 has difficulty levels from 1-10, and things like getting hit and dying decrease your rating by a certain amount of points, which, if you lose enough points bumps the difficulty down- it's the same going the other way as well. Professional locks it at 10 and easy maxes out at 6, but a number of other changes are made on easy that make the game a lot easier. When you get into RE5 or 6 they re-add selectable difficulty levels but the dynamic difficulty is still there, it's just within a bound dictated by your selected difficulty.

A shame the Striker/Jail Breaker is kinda poo poo in RE5, at least compared to the Riot Gun equivalent. Like it loses a bunch of power unless you are point blank in front of the enemy and the only thing it really has going for it is the ammo which again has the 100 magazine thing.

Ah, good to know. I distinctly recall my first play through way back when it first came out that I died so many times to the Garrador cage match that he actually stopped spawning. Guess I managed to drop the difficulty to 1. :-p.
