Resident Evil 2 |OT| 1998... I'll never forget it
- Thread starter Kindekuma
- Start date
The CG-Videos are so good imo. The Birkin one is my favourite by far. One of the reasons i always play Claire first.
But yeah i was kinda dissapointed with the change in the remake. They're not bad at all but the old ones were really good. I can watch that today and still love them.
I appreciate that they tried to tell the stories without flashbacks but they could've done way more with that. A short playable part, like with sherry, would've been so awesome. I first thought we might get to replay them like in Resident Evil 7 but sadly no dice.
I'm just a little concerned that their DLC for the game is this episodic content when previous rumors suggested it might've been some randomizer mode to add replayability to the campaign.
Was hoping I'd not be alone in that desire.
Yes, please.
Or make it the "canon" route where it becomes clear what exactly Leon and Claire did.
It's pretty good. Won me some of the boss fights when I've ran out of ammo on Hardcore.
After finishing this game, I installed all three to my Vita. Unfortunately RE1 is the "awful music" version but eh, it'll do
Knife destroys G-1 (in the underground) - I havent tried it personally but I was watching Carcinogen on Twitch do it. Made me feel stupid for running in circles lol.
I don't know if this is based on the amount of time you spend on the game, or what, but I appreciated that there were corpses that never woke up for me, so I never quite new how safe or dangerous a room would be. It kept me on edge even when the game probably intended for a room to be safe.
That's not quite right. At least for me. I'm with you on the licker with the lady-medallion/C4 but the other 3 you don't have to fight.
Claire A:
1. The one outside the kennel. I saw him on the wall but he dashed oversome makeshift barricade and i didn't have to fight him.
2. The two in the lab (from above). You can just run past them and through the door. When you come back they calmed down and you can walk past them as with the others. THey attack you as soon as they can but you don't have to fight them.
You need to get the "Hidden Place" film in the sewers first and then go back to the RPD to develop it. One of the hidden items is in Weskers desk, take that, but after that look again, there will be no bottom prompt, but press it anyway and you'll pick up the hidden film of Rebecca. You need to go back and develop that too.
Well, I think the fact that it's very challenging for RE2 fans is a triumph, but yeah, I think people are exaggerating its difficulty as well.
Having said that, I have only two full heals and three blue herbs just as I've evaded it for the first time.
I agree with this too! REmake 2's soundtrack is great but it's so utterly absent that the original wins by default. A shame, but it is a fantastic soundtrack?
As far as the lab goes, your strategy works, but it still stands that you can't really sneak past them on the first encounter. Which is naturally what most people will try and do.
The one outside the Kennel, you can see him on the ceiling before he jumps at you, and you can shoot at him quick before he gets you, but if you try and sneak past you he will lunge at you. If you run back in the kennel, it's a crapshoot as to whether it runs away or not I've found as he had in a couple of my playthroughs but did not on a couple others.
Start of Claire B fucked me up. So many locked doors and dangerous runs to make. I only had one green herb left by the first boss. Impressed with the change ups, even if you have to repeat most things.
i just realised that capcom released onimusha and resident evil one week apart, wow they have balls
With 4 campains, 2 games modes unlockable and one game mode in free dlc coming in a few months, you are good to go my friend
I'm glad you mentioned this because I was at 4/5 films and I'm like the fuck, what am I missing. Will put this on the to-do list on my Leon run
You can return to the police Station after the sewers?
Well I know I can reach the area where I fight for first time William, but I wonder how to reach a place to develop the film I found in the sewers...
You can go back to the station at any point up to the "point of no return" which is
The cable car to the labs
Yup, I saw that in my records too that I had one to go and was unsure what I had missed. Should have known.
I think I experienced a glitch trying to avoid that Licker on Claire A in the kennel. I noped the fuck out of there in the hopes that it would move, then immediately got grabbed by one of the zombies that had spilled out of the morgue. The door and zombie seemed to glitch out and Claire "escaped" the zombies grab, leaving me to walk back into the kennels where as luck would have it the licker did move. Managed to leg it back out the other side before either of them could get me.
Honestly, now that someone brought up the footsteps being de-accentuated, I might try to import the original footsteps or REmake's footsteps somehow.
Would such a thing even be possible?
I was going for the platinum and basically all I need is the collectibles trophies. It's lame as hell each scenario has unique collectibles. I've played this game through like 8 times since launch and I don't think I can stomach another 4 playthroughs.
I was able to play through Leon A and Claire B over the weekend (a feat in itself) and I loved every minute of it. Claire's run felt like it started really quick but then it seemed to slow down as I progressed.
Yep, at least on Leon's run there's an audible cue for this too.
My brain had gone fuzzy by that point too after having abit of a nightmare in the sewers, so I couldn't even remember how to get back.
There is a huge difference between playing a game blind, and not.
Get the true ending? No, only two - an A scenario and B scenario (or 1st run / 2nd run)
Claire says it to -- "I better check everything... there's no turning back"
As for how to get back to the station:
There is a hidden passage behind a shelf in the workers room, it leads to the underground area at the bottom of the stairs (with the locked chest requiring STARS badge) -- you need the tool you find in the sewer to re-open the statue (at least on A scenario? believe its always open in B)
I actually was surprised by how much changed. When I read the updated IGN review they made it sound like literally only the cutscenes changed.
Turns out you also have some new environments, enemies, setpieces, weapons, and item locations. The path through the police station is different and Mr. X is way more present in B.
Holy mother of god...
Ok tonight's wash run to get all the raccoons is most certainly happening now... wowzers penny...
Eh make sense. I found all the plugs, so I guess I'm close to
activate the cable car.
YES! Not knowing 100% if a zombie is dead is genius. I also really love it when some of them come back to life and crawl at you with no legs while moaning. It never gets old!
I wouldn't mind the original shotgun sound, especially when you fully upgrade it. Blow your speaks out in surround sound.Honestly, now that someone brought up the footsteps being de-accentuated, I might try to import the original footsteps or REmake's footsteps somehow.

What the f-...
I need to stop pretending I'm getting any better at this game. That's ridiculous.
