So consensus: Never use a green herb on it's own. Never mix two green herbs together. The western hallway is essential to board-up.

Inspector Gesicht posted:So consensus: From my experience you don't really get enough boards early on to board the west hallway before zombies already crawl inside, plus you only need to go through there twice (and a half as Leon). Personally I run through the east side more, and prefer boarding up the windows there (and maybe some by the area Leon returns from the parking garage from).

here you go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkGPTq_Jkh4 X shows up when you walk down the hallway, so I think the safe play is to trigger him real quick and then double back for items until he leaves.

This game is also reminding me why Claire has always been my favourite character in the series. Even though her "tone" (?) has changed a few times over the last 21 years (in no small part due to writing & VA changes) she's still got a certain way of getting things done that's always been the same. All in all I think she's got the most character out of the entire roster. It's the little things  Edit: She also happens to be the only recurring protagonist with no professional/trained background in shooting things. None of that po-faced "duty" nonsense. She's just loving cool. ZogrimAteMyHamster fucked around with this message at 23:43 on Feb 1, 2019 |

Something I noticed is that the poster for the toy Raccoon mascot has the line "Can't wait to see you at the zoo!" or something along that line at the end. It probably means nothing, but man I hope that if they do Remake 3 sometime that it's a hint that they will include the zoo section from Outbreak in it. Mutated zoo animals are the best kind.

Inspector Gesicht posted:So consensus: Lone green herbs are great if you take a little nibble from a zombie and it gets you from full health down to the top of Caution. A lone green herb will not heal you all the way back to full though, so another bite or two after will take you straight from the bottom of Fine to the top of Critical. You can take one more bite after that before you're at the bottom of Critical and one hit from death. Also, G+G only barely heals a tiny amount less than R+G but also more than two lone greens would, so if you're on Critical then making a G+G is fine if you have few/no reds. edit: On Hardcore, always heal to full with whatever you have onhand any time you get damaged. Don't ever be running around outside of Fine if you can help it because you can't afford to take two bites in a row unfortunately. CJacobs fucked around with this message at 00:16 on Feb 2, 2019 |

I genuinely enjoy both how uncertain you will be of how much a zombie can take, as well as not being sure of how much YOU can take, as each condition level has its own hidden degrees, fooling your cool by flashing state changes in the corner of some horrible looking attack, forcing you to make more hasty decisions purely by color panic and how big of a drop it was.

This is a cracking game and I’m really enjoying it, but I have to say Ada’s playable section is actually quite aggravating and not a lot of fun. Which is a shame because Sherry’s playable section was both creepy and full of nail biting tension.

I agree completely. I looooved that section, and after that just staring at walls holding down a button in Leon's special section was very disappointing.

Which is a shame because Sherry’s playable section was both creepy and full of nail biting tension. Fortunately once you've done it and you remember the route and switch locations it's trivially easy and done in less than two minutes. The entire section can be done without firing a single bullet. On subsequent playthroughs it is akin to taking a breather for me.

Mr. Fortitude posted:I'm one of those weirdos who likes every mainline RE game (spinoffs not so much). Even 6, which I like a lot. Even 0 which is probably my least favorite is still a blast for me. So I'm in this weird position where I want RE 8 to follow in the same footsteps as REmake 2 and even 7 because I prefer that style of gameplay but still want to see a game starring Jake and Joe going full balls to the wall action but there's no way either of them could carry a game that isn't action focused. I hope RE8 continues the documentary/found footage thing where you can interact with the environment in ways that effect your play through. I thought that was a really clever game play add and wish they'd used it a bit more.

Finished my first Leon A Hardcore run. 3 saves, best time I could get it down to was 2:30:48  Any advice for pathing out the sewers? That's where I feel I lost the most time with backtracking. The constant run killer was the lickers in the lab - those guys don't gently caress around.

A little touch I like about RE2 is the way in which examining an object in the 3d view reveals a more detailed description of it, and sometimes lets you do something new with the item.

ShortyMR.CAT posted:Ok so whats the best way to deal with a zomboi? I mean, when you actually have to shoot a zombie. I love the game, I love that sense of urgency of ammo being actually precious and a rare resource. I hate that I have no real counter move to a zombie grab except a sub-weapon. I really hate that zombies have such a large grab hitbox and theres no recovery time after getting bit by one zombie before you get grabbed by another. They just grab you as soon as you get up and you die. I hate it. It sucks. I think the 2 best ways are: 1) Shoot them in the head and hope for a critical (head blows up), and if you don't get one finish them with a knife 2) Aim for their knee to shoot their leg off and then either run past them or finish them with a knife Both take roughly the same amount of handgun ammo but which one you use is gonna depend on a whole bunch of factors like what weapons you have, how many zombies you're fighting, what room you're in, or what kinds of ammo you have so these are just general strategies. With Leon the upgraded shotgun can usually take zombies out in one close range headshot and the magnum also instantly kills with a headshot. For Claire you'll probably have a lot of acid grenades and if you aim for the groin your guaranteed to melt off a leg or two.

Pick up everything? Shoot for the head? Rarely miss? Idk man. I didn't use the knife much. Had a bunch sitting in my box at the end. I did use up all my shotgun shells. I loaded my last save to ensure I wasn't being hyperbolic. I had more than 200! With materials for more!  Mr. X didn't stand a chance.

DeadButDelicious posted:Finished my first Leon A Hardcore run. 3 saves, best time I could get it down to was 2:30:48 You can do the sewers in one loop, it's probably the hardest part of the game, especially if you go for the magnum upgrade, bc you're really hurting for inventory space. But you can go from the chess puzzle save room in a little circle, picking up everything you need with just 8 shotgun shells and your defensive item of choice as needed. I use grenades bc there's a grenade pick up on the way to help replenish if needed

If you get the time, watch uhtrance's speedruns on youtube. I got the 14k steps achievement first go after watching one of his runs and writing down the next key item to go for. The sewers are far shorter than you'd expect. The most common approach to the lab double lickers is to flash bang them. If you have plenty of time left over (and you've killed the sleeping zombies in the room) you can just walk every time you go through that room.

RE4: What's the preferred control-scheme? Do enemies have weak-spots like later entries? Can I aim where I please? Does it ever get as tense as 2 and 7? No subtitles? Is there anything egregiously missable? What is NOT recommended to buy from the merchant? Was it false-advertising that you only wear the jacket in level 1 of 19?

Don't buy the TMP or the rifle scope. Don't buy the second shotgun wait for the third. Don't buy the Broken Butterfly, either; you can get a free one, and skip the Killer7, too. Default controls are perfectly good. It'll get tense, yes, but a different sort of tension. Instead of a, "Jesus Christ, these guys are going to kill me!" it's not more like, "Jesus Christ, that's a lot of loving guys" Enemies can be melee'd after a head shot, or a knee shot that drops them to one knee. But, you can shoot them in the dick if you want to. The only missable things are some treasures and treasure components, but you can buy a treasure map if you feel like it. You'll wear the awesome jacket for just a little bit. Leave fucked around with this message at 01:20 on Feb 2, 2019 |

Interesting information being shared over on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/residentevil/comments/am41wn/fact_finding_how_zombie_hp_works/ tl;dr: It looks as if the zombies in-game are individually placed with specific health totals, rather than any kind of built-in variance or standard.
