- The person under the mask didn't add ANYTHING to the game. It just (in the words of Leon) Pointless and stupid. Like Resident Evil 4, the game just starts to feel like Chaos Legion, where you get a bunch of enemies to defeat and then move on....and I fucking HATED taht game. In ten years of waiting for some story development in Resident Evil, nothing ...NOTHING has happened that has been slightly eerie/entertaining or worth talking with your friends about to try to get them into the game. |
I'd take a game I want to play with friends over a game story I want to discuss with friends. The story is fine, it drives events pretty well and moves at a reasonable pace throughout. The supporting files and documents give a reasonable insight into the world they've created and seem to tie up a bunch of threads from the series.
No, it's not an amazing story, but the RE games have never had amazing stories. What they have had is great set pieces and memorable gaming moments. Who doesn't remember the dogs leaping into the hallway the first time in RE1, for example. RE5 is certainly more action orientated, but I'm really enjoying it and have been more than to go back and replay sections many times over to look for items, emblems and other stuff. |

You know what alligators like? A fucking magnum round to the head. Fully upgrade an L. Hawk, get infinite ammo, rape the game forever.
|
I've got me an infinite Hydra shotgun, Infinite L. Hawk, and Infinite Rocket Launcher. Only time I die now is if I fuck up a QTE.
Also Sheva's longbow sucks. So does the Gatling Gun. |
well I finally got the game yesterday and played it solo and I gatta say, cpu Sheva is a fucking retard. To me she's just a walking purse whom I get items from, when she's not literally just shooting it away.
|
Sheva's not that bad, you just have to limit her ammo and she takes a bit more care with it. Alternatively, complete the game with a mate, get the infinite ammo for one of the guns (like the first pistol) and let her go crazy with that. I've found the AI to be reasonably decent for the most part. Sure she sometimes stands right behind me and shoots me (thankfully it doesn't hurt), but she does a reasonable job of staying out of trouble, taking a few zombies down and helping me out when I get caught (well, sometimes).
|
She seems to do a lot better with a machine gun than she does with the handgun. She knows to just do short bursts of fire, and it doesn't feel like she blows through ammo nearly as badly. She feels more helpful overall, too.
|
I'm having a hard time deciding about weaponry for Sheeva. Cash feels pretty limited, and all I've given her so far is the M92 (I'm letting her take all handgun bullets while I go shotgun/mp5). I've upgraded everything excep reload speed to max, and I'm starting to think about giving her another weapon instead of wasting money on upgrading a shitty gun?
By the way, Possible spoiler about handgun:
|
I'd say no. The M39R isn't that spectacular unless you have, of course, nothing else. For a first infinite ammo gun, sure, but it costs 20,000 upgrade points. Something far better used getting infinite on a magnum or something.
|
Theres no doubt that the AI is an awesome shot in this game, but for the most part all it does is piss me off. I was fighting wesker yesterday and she kept standing in the damn hallway getting seen when I was trying to hide.
I hope she gets run over by cancer the next time she crosses the street! Oh on a second note. I hope Garr also gets run over by cancer |
I just got the game today and have been playing it co-op with Sian, been a really good time so far. Took a while to get used to not just fucking off and doing our own thing, but once we did it started getting fun. It's aiming to be a pretty short game though =(
|
I <3 the infinite rocket launcher so very much. Just saying.
|
ScarletDeath has pretty much plowed through the game a few times and is helping out with it. I've pretty much been his support the entire time since he knows what he's doing but its a breathe of fresh air to have another human character to play with. It really brings back memories of the olden games with all the co-op fun in the retro games.
Plus he taught me a trick to duplicate items which is nice. |
Hey guys, just picked up RE5. Anyone care to Co-op with me this weekend? :)
|
hey got this too today on ps3 and played a good 3h with my friend in offline co-op and this game is just amazing! So much better in co-op!
btw after my firend was gone I decided to join an online game from the start to see how's the online and I saw that I add all the items from my previoust game in my inventory. This is great but can the other player pick things from my vault or are they separated? Because I wouldn't want to join a game and see the other playes just picking all my things from my inventory... |

Your inventories are completely separate, but you can trade things such as herbs, grenades, ammo, etc. They aren't allowed to just take them, you have the option to give the item you have selected to the other player. I think the only things you can't trade are your weapons, everything else is pretty much fair game. |

Co-op has been really intense a lot because of ammo management. Most of the times we're yelling at each other it's because one of us has fucked off and the other time is ammo. One thing that's frustrating to me is for the weapon types we share there's no way to give a certain amount of ammo to someone. When ammo is tight and I have a full box of handgun ammo I'd rather give 25 of my ammo to my partner so I don't have to find her again when I need to reload. Makes you dependent on them though, which could be considered a good thing I suppose. |
Okay, I've looked at the leaderboards for Chapter 1 on the PS3 version... How the fuck are people getting times of ~11 min. for all of Chapter 1? The best I can do on 1-1 alone is ~12 min. Is there some way to make the helicopter arrive faster or something?

You can load Sheva up with Rotten Eggs, which sell for 2,000 a pop, and make 45,000 each time you do it. I did that up to 999 Rotten Eggs, sold it all for a cool 1,990,000, bought and upgraded all my weapons, and I still had over 1,000,000. |
well since were were pretty much playing via online, he gave me around 200 of his rotten eggs, tons of ammo, and a bunch of first aids. Needless to say it was tedious and took a bit of time. He quit via XMB (holding the PS button and quiting game) so that his game wouldn't get saved. Then I just entered the game and saved my inventory.
To be honest I didn't realize what he was doing until he told me, I thought he was just going to give me a few items since it was my first playthrough. Which is I refused to sell anything I haven't gotten on my own in order to keep some fairness and wont ruin the game for me. Atleast until the second run. |
well I just beat the game last night thanks for Scarlet but we accidentally found some glitches while playing online.
Spoiler:
EDIT: oops sorry bout the double |
