Lord Ludikrous posted:Could just be my perception but I found the boss fights harder with Leon than Claire - and Claire as my first one. Maybe it’s the adaptive difficulty in play as I finished Leon’s run in half the time and took a lot less damage I'm pretty sure adaptive difficulty was disproven; every zombo has an individual amount of HP specified.

Its weird to me that OG RE2 is the one Kamiya directed. Like if I didn't know any better and you asked me to guess which RE game it was that Kamiya directed, RE4 is the one I would have guessed.

DOUBLE CLICK HERE posted:I'm pretty sure adaptive difficulty was disproven; every zombo has an individual amount of HP specified. For example, the "dead body" in a ceiling at the West Storage. I did some experimenting with spite. While it's in the ceiling. two shotgun shells to drop it to the floor, then a 3rd to pulp it. Rewind: I lost track of how many handgun bullets to drop to the floor and then, EVENTUALLY, destroy the head. Rewind: Just play through "Regular". Takes a shotgun blast to the face like a champ and I end up knifing it. It then follows me into the library, and 24 consecutive handgun headshots + 7 shotgun shells did not destroy it's skull (Even if it had long since fallen over for a nap) Rewind: Start slashing at the dangling body with a 1/4 durability knife until it breaks against their floored one armed one legged body. Two shotgun shells to destroy the head. Rewind: Shoot it's stuck in the ceiling leg with a handgun 5 times to make it fall down. Shoot it in the head once with a shotgun. No more skull.

DOUBLE CLICK HERE posted:I don't see any advantage Claire has over Leon in any scenario. Ignoring magnums, the shotgun and flamethrower and the occasional panic knife or grenade are literally all you ever need for a boss and way more than enough for anything you between bosses. Claire has a couple of advantages in the RPD due to having the heart key, like a safer path back to the basement and never having to revisit the west-hallway deathtrap. They did screw her over with her arsenal, although some of the problem is that she has more weapons without immediately obvious merits. The SMG is terrible without its mods and feels worthless if you're still stuck in a "kill everything" mode from other games; her two revolvers are finicky compared to any semiautomatic; and even the grenade launcher falls off dramatically as you reach harder difficulties.

If a zombie drops on the first round you've put into its head after it's stood back up, it's actually dead in my experience. Even if the head doesn't pop.

Also sheer panic, something the denizens of RE2 are very good at making you feel at seemingly random times This lose-your-cool panic factor is something a lot of other survival horror games lack and it makes RE2R a classic imo

While logically "If they don't react anymore, it must be DEAD dead". I've been made paranoid by cases of damage checking corpses only for them to revive later, Like the cop zombie who takes a dive over the railing above the darkroom. Even though those are clearly cases of event triggers and not "What if they get back up  "More importantly though? An exploded head is much more SATISFYING. Which was true for the original games where shooting a zombie in the shoulder enough times gets the job done the first time.

Does the B run remove most of the item boxes? Obviously the one in the main hall is gone, but I’ve canvassed most of RPD at this point and I think I’ve only found one? I have or have access to most of the items needed to blast through this place, but, I can’t carry poo poo.

The main hall item box is the only one that disappears. Theres the dark room, the watchman's room(?) above the basement, the one below the statue, and the one in the chiefs office (if claire) or in the pump house or whatever the gently caress that building is that you get to from the roof (if leon)

The crane also has a deceptively huge range. I got pasted because I thought you could run to the other side but it turns out only the button area is safe.

The crane is also annoying because if you don't stun him, he starts trying to grab you and then the crane hits both of you and it a difficult to avoid grab.

Are the REmake port difficulties different from the original GC version? I started on the hardest available and Jill dies in two zombie bites, I don't remember it being that difficult originally. Unless I only ever played it on the lower ones....

Man, Hardcore 2nd run's time requirement is really strict. I went as fast as I could and still only managed 2:06. I guess I have to actually plan a run instead of winging it.

All this talk of two hours and I'm just here marvelling at the environments. I don't think I'll ever get S+, or at least certainly not any time soon. I simply adore the game's atmosphere too much right now (especially the RPD) to just rush on by everything. One question though, what's Claire's second-best option against all the vegetable men in the lab? I don't want to waste the obviously-best flame rounds because I think I'll need them for Birkin 3 if my fairly sad resistance on a previous run was anything to go by, but at the same time I want these fuckers dead so I can backtrack with impunity.

If you want the Ivy's dead, you gotta him em with a flame round. You get a ton really, you can spare a few to take out the plant men.

G-mutants suck and are making me want to not play. You need to waste ammo to expose the eye, then dump all your shotgun and magnum ammo into them to kill them. I don't know if I'm just super-unlucky with positioning but they are also just impossible to bypass in the two areas they turn up. For those of you getting past them what did you do? I'm at Leon A.

use the smg or handgun to pop a pustule or three so they fall down then hit them with one flame round? if you plan ahead of time you only need to permanently kill the two in the hallway heading to the dispersal control room and maybe the one thats standing near the sublevel hatch if you input the codes ahead of time, and on the way out you can stun the ones that drop from the ceiling long enough to run by with one shot.

I'm playing REmake Jill on the Gcube for the first time in like 15 years and yeah, shits way tougher than I remember. I'm having to knife and juke everything since ammo is so scarce, and Jill drops to caution every time the wind blows. But man, the game's design and atmosphere is amazing, and the graphics are still impressive on my CRT. This is still the pinnacle of Resident Evil imo.

If they're the type that's waiting under the water, wait til youre close but not too close and pop their arm with a single round. In their animation of jumping up, you can walk past. If they're walking towards you either just take the grab and spit since it doesn't do damage and actually getting poisoned seems random and kinda low for Leon in my experiences. Or try running past after burning an escape knife or grenade. Or shoot them just enough to stun them so you can run by. Once you get the flamethrower they die easy with a little spray and pray.

You can cheese some of the G-Adults by getting out of the water. They'll spend a little time literally despawning that you can use to shoot them or reset their position.

Man I'm bad at these sorts of games. Still haven't beaten Leon A yet. On my second attempt and have 32 saves. Just got back into the police station. I'm outright cheesing it at this point and if I run into a Licker I just reload my game and go get the jump on it. I'm the master of shooting right between the zombies' legs though  . Still having tons of fun and I have a whole other character I haven't started! Also haven't fought Mr X at all. Too bad you can't reload your guns in the menu like in the old game. At least I don't think you can. Hate having 1 round left in my gun but can't do a drat thing about it. VV Oh that will help me a lot then. Somehow I missed that.
