Resident Evil 5! | Switch Edition - 2019

[Baha]

It's always been 'boo!' moments that made it scary. Things bursting through glass (sup crows) or oven man in RE4. Older RE's used to be a bit more confined and shorter on resources, along with less saving etc.

Since RE3 the combat got a lot more attention, and the excitement was mostly gotten from having to deal with a lot of enemies. The exciting bits were kinda like mercenaries, just frantically trying to kill things and survive. RE has never really instilled paranoia the way games like Silent Hill, AvP or Project Zero did. Which is a-ok with me, but RE6 could stand to have a bit of a revamp, just like RE4 shook things up and kept it all fresh.

Versus mode drops tomorrow:

Kotaku - Resident Evil 5 Versus Mode For Sale Tomorrow - Resident Evil 5

I still need to unlock the rest of the characters in Mercs and S-Rank the few Missions I have left.

Professional is intended to be played in Co-op, since the AI is set to "dumb". That's what makes it difficult rather than monster's resistance, damage received, etc. >.<

[Brill Weave]

I've been playing through just farming more and more money and trying to farm up quick points to spend on the bonus items(for the infinite ammo etc) I usually end up doing mission 5-1 I believe. Whichever one has the lickers and the spider boss. The level I can clear in about twelve minutes or less usually.

[Isawa]

Brill, if you want to do the rotten egg dupe, let me know. It's a lot easier then farming constantly.

[Null]

Main reason I never did the dupe and farmed was because I needed points to unlock all the unlimited ammo as well. Might as well get both at the same time.

[BadKarma]

Professional mode is pretty ridiculous. I've beat it on all 3 modes BUT professional mode. I keep dying at the first part with the Executioner because Sheva keeps getting in the way...one hit = Dying, and Dying state lasts about 2~ seconds tops...

Beat it on Pro without dying :3

This is my philosophy as well. I have found it actually fun and rewarding to do a speed run through the entire game from start to finish on easy as a farming run. Done it a couple times now. Either that or I run through the caves, that level nets you a lot of gems.

[Kisamoo]

All I play is Mercenaries. Highest is 540k on Public Assembly Duo with BSAA Jill. If anyone here is good at SS runs, just add me. Was farming points with a random I met and we were averaging 300~500k a run, got enough points to buy all the Versus characters now. :D I know Wesker and Battle Suit Jill is better; but BSAA Jill is cute. :3

Ranked around 1000 for Public Assembly. Japanese are crazy, no idea how they get 700k.

I'm more concerned with upgrading all the weapons and not the unlimited ammo. I have the handcannon fully upgraded with unlimited ammo, and it wrecks everything. I just want money for the achievement lol =/.

[Brill Weave]

I am focusing on both. But since I've been able to get the vast majority of my weapons fully upgraded the only thing left to do is to go for the infinite ammo. My inventory looks like a gun store lol.

[Kisamoo]

Europe got the DLC on PSN and apparently it's like 300kbs. lol. 5 bucks for 300 kbs. I'm buying it because I love the game, but they could have added some weapons or costumes...

[Brill Weave]

Well it's also only a few weeks since the game was released. So I can understand why there isn't a ton of things they added. I would love it if they said they would release more content to the story kind of like Mass Effect released the Bring Down the Sky missions. That would be fantastic.

I'm still waiting for the rest of the "plethora of DLC" that Bioware promised.

[Kisamoo]

Slayers is incredibly unbalanced. Wesker is by far superior, and it shows when he costs the most points (50,000 vs the average of 10,000). Looks like it's all survivors.

I'm doing Veteran for points, I found a way to dupe eggs with myself, lol.

[Kisamoo]

If you're playing Versus, pick a character with a sniper. Never-ever fight close range. Just keep running, and theyll give up. I've won so many games in a row using Battle Suit Jill and her sniper. Picking of Majinis and bosses from across the map, and stealing kills; I end games with like 40,000+ points while they're sitting at like 10~20k. Trust me, get a sniper, you'll own the game. Snipe everything in Slayers.

Finally platinumed this game

Good game, enjoyed it for the most part, but the AI was lacking @ some points throughout the game

Tried Mercenaries for the first time, didn't really enjoy it, so it was a no-go on the DLC

Hopefully 6 doesn't take too long, wouldn't mind a RE5 remix version, later down the line, like how RE4 got upgraded 3 times over

Just played the versus with Kisamoo, and believe it or not, it's pretty damn fun. The no moving while shooting thing is actually a part of the fun. It's somewhat like Mercenaries, but having other people there to fight also adds a whole new element.

Haha, I was making a point to Ozz in-game on how the players that focused on killing players instead of Majini's would always come in last. It held true every round. I prefer Slayers over Survivors just because killing players isn't a focus; but it's also rewarding. It's all about the mini-bosses that spawn every 30~40 kills, which makes characters with power weapons the best. Also, nothing is funner than finishing someone off with a melee move. I use BSAA Jill just because she does a Spiderman pose right after her cartwheel kick.
