So I'm planning out my S+ runs, and I'm trying to figure out the best places to use the 3 saves, I'm thinking sometime after Birkin 1, right before Birkin 2 and 3. The latter two seem like a must for how quickly those fights can go to poo poo. Are there any parts I should consider saving prior?

So how does the Infinite Knife work, if you're grabbed and you use it but don't kill the zombie, is it gone for that playthrough or is it always in the box? I don't have the Knife yet but someone said it's the only infinite item you can use for S+ and I'd rather use that in the runs if that's the case.

I was introduced to flashbangs by Counter-Strike, which was depicted as "sounds like a cap gun and a white screen for about 5 seconds" I think I recall hearing that the shockwave of a flashbang is enough to just knock you on your rear end because it's just a good deal of energy.

Hell no, Uiru-Mochi is the absolute worst. All of my tofu runs were done in at least 10-15 tries, but Uiru-Mochi took well over 30 attempts for me. I hate that fucker.

Anonymous Robot posted:In general, with the amount of blue herbs this game gives you, you’d think the poison system was a major gameplay mechanic. I honestly think they're their so you can just make defense boosts and not really to cure poison since there's only like 2 rooms you can even get poisoned.

So in the B game, since the lower area never closes, I'm pretty sure that I opened all of the doors that need the T-Tool to do so and I never got a "discard" option for it. Is this a thing or did I just miss a door somewhere twice?

Just finished up all the Raccoons and beating the game without using the Item Box. All I have left to do is S+ Rank everything and I'll have 100%, but drat, this is going to be a lot of planning. Thankfully I've got the Infinite Knife and 120~ frames to knife the poo poo out of all of the bosses. These new skips though might make this a lot easier.

Good soup! posted:A medieval resident evil sounds dope but everyone would be like "oh it's mostly melee, isn't that just devil may cry" You could just have your character be an eccentric inventor ala Sleepyhollow and have him invent some sort of primitive crossbow/flintlock pistol and have him create more absurd weaponry latter on. It could work.

In other news, I'm working on my Leon A Hardcore run to get S+, everything was going swimmingly until an Ivy grabs me right at the end and I don't have a defense item so I'm hosed. Now I'm back right before the Birkin 2 fight and of course, rather than going through it in one shot I keep dying because the fight is RNG bullshit, but he seemingly can combo you in two hits, something I've never seen before. I hate this dumb fight, his massive whirlwind attacks on a 2x2 foot platform is just stupid.

CharlestheHammer posted:I don’t even know why anyone is talking about this, the only group that would care is speed runners and outside of that one glitch there isn’t even a reason for them to care, as dodging zombies is more practical for the main game, Actually, if you're going for S+ rank runs just to get the Infinite RPG/Minigun you're going to care a whole bunch about this. S+ requires you to haul rear end, and there's room where you won't be dodging or running through zombies without getting some staggers/leg pops. You also won't have the ammo to clear out poo poo as nearly everything is saved for staggers and bosses. There were times where I almost died because things weren't working out and to no fault of my own. I'm at my last save right before Birkin 3. Do his eyes have random health or something? The leg one always takes 2 shells and the one on the back I can get with 1 shell consistently, but his should eye is a fuckin' crap shoot. Sometimes it'll take up to 3 at point blank and other times it'll just pop in 1.

Gonna run through on Assisted with the infinite minigun to do the No Healing achievement alongside it You're better off using a video, also some of the Raccoons can only be found in Leon's game and some only in Claire's game, also, there's also one cheeky one outside in the bushes at the beginning of the B game. So to get them all, you're looking at 3 partial playthroughs.

CJacobs posted:Well my point is, the specific Mr X that chases Leon and Claire around is an iconic dude. Is he really though? I thought in the original he's hardly in the game being segregated to certain runs and rooms and he just served as a rehash of the RE1 Tyrant when fought as a boss. Zedsdeadbaby posted:These are examples of other Mr.X in the middle of Capcom's 'give us money we don't give a gently caress' phase of churning out endless REs What the hell is this from? I'm doing my Claire A Hardcore run trying to get the S+. At this point I've saved right before Mr. X shows up and I just picked up the semi-auto pistol she gets. Should I just completely drop the revolver Claire starts out with? It's small clip size is becoming super annoying to deal with. Also, several times in this run I've had to put in more than 5 shots into a zombie's leg to get it to come off. Kinda dumb that you have to reload as Claire just to get a leg off and that can cost you a run. Dumb RNG poo poo at it's finest. edit: The same question was just asked above, what are the chances.

Black August posted:The laser sight and clip size is nice, but I just let it be a sewer layover until the labs; the upgraded revolver does some serious hurt and gets the hi-grade bonus ammo, plus the fact that the curse of Revolver Ocelot is sometimes too powerful to resist I completely forgot about the high grade ammo, I think I'd stockpile that for the end game. But are you talking about the B game revolver, because I can't get it? Isn't that what Revolver Ocelot has?

I dunno, like I said there were times where the 5 shots in the Revolver didn't take out a leg and the zombie got too close for comfort because even with the speedloader it takes too long. With certain stubborn legs taking up to 7 shots, I want to be able to dump what I can without reloading.Phobos Anomaly posted:SLS 60: Claire's starting handgun. Terrible capacity, reload and steady time. Difficult to use until you get the reloader upgrade. Drop it as soon as you get the JMB. Can be upgraded later to fire magnum rounds, which are useful against G-types. Well, guess that settles it. sigher fucked around with this message at 11:09 on Feb 10, 2019 |

Dewgy posted:Exact same experience. After RE5 we did a bunch of runs on other difficulties just for S-ranks, and after RE6 we were just like... well, not doing that again for a while. I believe I got 100% in RE5 since it was really fun with a friend, but yeah, RE6 was painful to go through. We were considering not even finishing it because there's nothing good about it. The only thing I remember was a zombie chick with huge tits as a boss (with Leon?) and maybe some big T-Rex type thing in China? Dunno. I never want to be reminded of RE6. Does anyone wish that there was a way to play RE2 co-op? Like, both players are working together, but one is going through the A scenario and the other B. I mean, the whole game would have to be completely redesigned since so much of the A/B scenarios are the exact same, but it would be fun to work together, sharing ammo and co-operating as to who does what seeing as some items would have to be character specific. I honestly just can't get enough of RE2 and want to play it over and over again. Since it's release I've done 7 playthroughs and I still don't mind doing more.

In Training posted:I finally beat it by realizing that you can kill the first licker, trying to dodge/run past always resulted in guaranteed damage for me. Mitigating that alone gave me enough health to say gently caress it and tank the last hit in the map and run for the exit. Yeah, have fun with the gelatinous fucks, at least two of them are pretty easy but Tofu, Mochi and Annin can be a bitch, especially the former two. codo27 posted:Something else as well, I noticed after getting danger'd by the first gas station zombie, that they forgive you and you're back fine again once you're on the street. Any other points in the game that do this for you? I've been meaning to test out if you get a full heal after the Ada and Sherry parts but I'm not sure if you do. Ada I can see making sense, Sherry not so much.

In so doing, he drove her so insane with hatred that she decided to burn down the world around him. Oh he was referring to RE6, not 2, I was confused. Was it really that apparent in 6?

Carla, the faux Ada who serves as the game's antagonist, began her life as this mousy blonde chick who was hopelessly obsessed with Simmons. He repaid that by slinging her into a machine and 3D-printing her into a clone of Ada, who he was hopelessly obsessed with. That's fanfic levels of terrible.
