Cracks me up every fucking time lol
Brandon Jones of EZA is a legend for bringing the Yo Zombie to the world's attention
Now I understand why Capcom said there's no B route in this game...cause there is none.
Couldn't find a clip spceifically for the yo zombie, but it's timestamped in this one (might need to turn the volume up):
I feel like I need to bring up one of the biggest flaws this game has that I don't see anyone really talking about; There's no break between animation attacks the enemies do to you. I've died quite a few times thoughout various runs and 4th Survivor/Tofu from bullshit of being grabbed by a zombie/dog/ect., only to be immediately grabbed by another with literally no time to go to the menu to heal or move. It kind of ruins a lot of the enjoyment because it just feels cheap by being basically stun locked with no way to avoid the next attack or heal.
I'm sure there will be some that will argue that the original RE2 was similar, but the buffer between attacks was slightly larger, throwing off zombies would throw back any in front AND behind you for space, and there's the simple point that being attacked that way was cheap even then. It's 2019 and I think bullshit stuff like stunlocking should be a thing of the past at this point, it just cheapens the experience regardless of the type of game IMO.

I wish you could turn off that adaptive difficulty. I died a few times and the game just removed the enemy that was killing me apparently. Kind of takes away the challenge of getting better...
Turns out I did get the rocket launcher, I just didn't appear to get a record stating it was unlocked.
Yeah that's what happened to me with the minigun and it freaked me out. You just gotta check the box I guess.
We're you choosing continue or manually loading a save? I almost never used continue, so I don't think I saw this adaptive difficulty.
Did Lean A and Claire B. Which is Leon 1st playthrough, Claire 2nd.
Great remake, I hope Resident Evil 3 gets done one day.
Tactile feedback from shooting is a bit weak, but I guess it's the compromise with zombies so the game isn't too easy with 1 shoot to the head and dead. They could've made the zombies a little faster I guess.
Lickers weren't too much trouble. Mr X was the bigger pain lol.
Not sure if it's really worth doing Claire A and Leon B for now, as not to get burnt out.
Still looking forward to an RE8, as they've kept to the source with RE2, which I can appreciate, but I'm not a speedrunner. I have no enjoyment from speedrunning and wouldn't have minded just a little more padding/story.
The DLC might make that up a bit for me, and IIRC there is going to be free stuff.

I was continuing. I was basically just testing a run through an area to get the best method. After several runs, the licker that kept killing me was just gone. I just assumed it was the difficulty at work, but maybe a glitch then?
Last lore file driving me crazzzzy. It's not any of the orphanage ones or the b-scenario only ones. Keep loading different saves to try to find it with a guide. Ughhh
Just start on Hardcore
Problem solved >:D
(but really as long as you're careful Hardcore isn't really that bad)
Once I got the shotgun it got manageable. And I have a lot of full heal herbs stocked in the chest.
There's a real lack of knives so far on Leon B, though.
I just now noticed that the music playing while you're in the model viewer section in bonuses is a remix of the original save room music. That's awesome!
None of the S.T.A.R.S office letters or at the cable car in the sewers either? I missed one in the lab reception save room on the whiteboard when hunting for those lore pieces.
It's what G's forms were officially referred to as for years.
Did you get the one down the stairs from the cable car? the one about the combination to the safe being written in chalk?
Yep, I've already S+ Hardcore both campaign's, 4th Survivor, and all Tofu's, on top of being able to clear all the original 3 games without damage, but I'm a bad player, sure.
You do know that having a valid criticism of a game, even one you love, is a thing, right?
Nah I definitely noticed that issue. In the original they were knocked further back. It was pretty hard to get grabbed again after that. Here I just kinda prayed that enough of the zombies in a group got knocked away so that I can still squeeze by. It thankfully didn't happen too often, I think only in 4th survivor and in the prison section in Leon's scenario.
You're right, stunlocks can be really frustrating when they happen. G2 can knock you down and start another attack chain as you're standing up to hit you before you have a chance to do anything. Him and the dogs are the worst offenders.
Not in the inventory but yes in the menu. Cutscenes also stop the timer.
Outside of one instance across 40 hours in game, stun locking is not something I've ever run into. Granted, I mash tab like mad after attack animations, I always have time to heal and avoid follow up attacks.
That is the same one I was missing. I hadn't even noticed there were stairs down to that area.
Is there any trick to getting out of the jail as Leon without getting totally swarmed?
I stood still for a few seconds to kite as many zombies close to me as possible. Then I took the left route, baited Mr. X into an attack that I dodged, turned the corner and tossed a flash grenade to stun the remaining zombies.
Didn't even knew that was possible, I actually thought you were invincible after a grab for at least two steps, even made it a strategy to pick which zombie to hug in those Tofu survivals lol!
Yeah I thought so, I got grabbed on purpose tactically towards the end in order to give me that extra second to run through the group.
Claire Hardcore S+ done. Now on to the B's and under 2 hours ....... any unlocks for these or is it pure prestige?
So, I'm gonna attempt another Leon A S+ tonight. Hardcore, no saves, just for the hell of it.
Can someone give me some advice for the final two bosses? I'm skipping the magnum, which is what I originally used. I just need some general tips, what strategy you guys used.

Man, the B scenario it remind me MGSV chapter 2. It's a paste & copy of the first part of game with just new cutscene. WHAT A BULLSHIT. RE2 wasn't absolutely like this and puzzles, bosses and even the levels were absolutely alternative to the A walkthrough. Damn you capcom. You ruined a perfect remake with your rush.
From what I've seen on speedruns:
super X??? is on a timer of 1 minutes and 30 seconds ish if you do damage so you're really just waiting it out before the rocket launcher. Bring a shotgun to cancel him out of his instant kill move and maybe save a few flash or normal grenades to stall him for time.
Doing no damage to him you'll have to wait 3 minutes before you get the rocket launcher

It's 2nd scenario not B though, they pretty much said no A/B scenarios when they revealed the game at E3. It's more there to complement you playing the 1st with the other character than it is trying to give you different scenarios for the same character.
Wow. What an huge let down. So practically it's an half remake. Don't expect this. Can't say I'm happy about it.
Is it possible for Claire to get to the Break Room in the east wing of the police station? I'm doing Claire A right now, and after coming back to the police station after the sewers, the shutter in the watchman's room is still closed. However, I could swear that in Claire B, I went to the Break Room at some point.
