You can get stuff from drops (boxes) and you can spend your cash on the roulette to get upgrades. Character dress-up stuff comes from both levelling and drops/roulette.

Just finished chapter 3. 3-3 was tough but eventually beat it after an hour
So halfway through and still loving this. I definitely prefer it to the first one and didn't think I'd end up saying that.

So I played the Borrachos mission last night (5-2).
Seriously, WTF!
We beat it no problem but the
part posed a problem for me. My buddy used the
(story dependent item) and I was support with the turrets (and frankly I did more work with them because he was having trouble aiming the darned thing). I also KILLED the
because he ran out of ammo with the
.
End of the mission: Me: 6300 points, My Buddy: 20,000 friggin points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WTF Capcom. Seriously. Pissed me off.

The laser does hella more damage to whatever it is your fighting than turrets ever could. Even if technically you are doing "more work".
Think about 5-3. One laser blast can take down an entire wing, whereas you'd be there all day trying to take off a wing with turrets (though not impossible). So.
If it bothers you that bad do it again and request the laser. Hell I've already done the chapter 3 different ways (easy, normal, hard), you can it differently each time. I've done 5-3 countless times (it's the box hoarding mission in case GAF wasn't already aware of this)

I love the first two games (Extreme Condition and Colonies), and I haven't played Colonies for like a year, and I threw it in for shits and giggles last night. My god. LP2 makes it look like an Xbox 1 game and I'm not even kidding. Even the menus, the structure, the graphics, and espeically the character detail all looks a generation better.
It's amazing what an improvement over the first game this is (and I loved the first game!).
Haven't been reading through the whole thread, just kind of checking up on it now and again. So this very well may be echoing thoughts that have been run into the ground.
Did anybody else find the final mission to be incredibly underwhelming? That last boss was just so bland compared to any of the other 5 chapters. Probably the most anti-climactic final levels I've played in a long, long time. The NEOS level was cool and something different, then all of a sudden...meh. Way to suck the wind out of the sails.

Yeah, Chapter 6-4 I found very disappointing, it's a long boring slog through bullet sponges. Chapters 6-1 through 6-3 are very cool, and to go from that to the final level was a bit of a letdownArchaix said:

I agree. Neos and the lead up was way better.
Last boss is also the easiest dude on the (lost) planet.

I think my game might be bugged. I didn't unlock the Wesker skin when I finished the game which I thought was weird. I just finished hard mode and unlocked extreme mode which seems normal but then I checked my trophies and I haven't received the two for completing the game on normal or hard.
I'm not bothered about trophies at all but the Wesker skin thing is pretty annoying. Are you meant to get anything for finishing hard mode?

Pretty sure you need a Resident Evil 5 save to unlock Wesker. If you do I'm not sure why he wouldn't have unlocked.

Oh ok then. Still doesn't really explain why the game hasn't acknowledged me finishing it.

Baloonatic said:
Oh for that it may be because you haven't done some of the co-op chapters. There's a couple of scenes you only get if you are Player 2 etc. I seem to recall some people in here talking about not getting the achievement/trophy because of that.

I won't worry too much about it then. As long as I'm not missing items/skins because of it.

What is it with Capcom and
massive, blob-like
The most difficult part of the final boss fight is getting your idiot teammate(s) to
GO UP AND PLANT THE TRACKERS, TRIGGERING THE END OF THE BATTLE.
We had one guy who just stood there shooting and wouldn't do what was needed to end the fight. Another guy had to go find a safe place to stand and send him a message.

I played through most of the campaign with just one other friend and the CPU filling in for the other character slots. It was perfectly fine. As long as you play with competent players, campaign is great. There are definitely a few spots where having four human players would definitely make things much easier though, no question about it.
It's when you get idiots playing with you that things can get frustrating. You NEED to be able to communicate with each other and you NEED to use teamwork to play in the most effective way possible. So many players don't do either.
My only complaints are on the levels where you can be knocked off a platform and die. The train levels immediately come to mind; sometimes just slightly facing the wrong angle and using a weapon with too much recoil is enough to screw you over.

You need to take the secret path through 1-2 and finish the level. The path isBaloonatic said:
through a cave through the tree right at the beginning of the level
Also, not sure if you know but completion achievements don't stack (i.e., beating on hard will not give you achievements for beating on Normal or Easy)
Woah, woah, woah... WOAH. You can combine VSs?! This game keeps getting more and more badass. Is this possible in the co-op or is this a competitive multiplayer thing only?
I just finished Episode 4 last night. That was quite long after Ep. 3 but oh so much fun! Gonna give Ep. 5 a run this evening if any other PS3'ers are interested in teaming up.

Holy fuck @ tactical nuke.
Finished 3 - 3 on my first try last night with three other people... all of whom were doing it for the first time too.:lol :lol The boss battle was SO awesome and requires a lot of coordination. I won't lie though, all four of us died once during the battle but we figured this out pretty quickly and had our routines down after a good 10 minutes. We had two guys on top, one manning the turret and the other energizing/loading the shell shots and rotating the cannon, one guy (me) going between the two floors to help with anything random and feed T-ENG to everyone who needed it, and when I was free I joined up with the remaining guy down below manning the cooling stations and the side turrets. Despite dying we all got S rank on that mission. Sooooo good!
Sooooo good!palpabl_purpura

So what? Online multiplayer abuse is nothing new. People rage quit SF4 and COD all the time without penalty. If it's for the better of the game, do it. If you really wanted a viable compromise, how about a 2 minute lockout if you are trying to rejoin the same game.
well guess I tried as much as humanly possible, no matter how awesomely orgasmicly good this game is in co-op, its still a broken piece of shit game alone....stopped at the end of 5-3, could not for the life of me get their datapost to run out the 60sec timer before they got mine.
Whoever PMs me first gets that Map-pack DLC ( or what I assume is a map-pack dlc, its a picture of 2 maps on it soo... )

Avoids achievement whores from going into hard, thinking they'll just get all 3 out of the way <3. I love the LP2 achievements due to difficulty and time :lolKusagari said:
Anyways, I'm in love with the game. They really need to just add in a Boss rush mode coop and drop in while playing.
I love the levels were you have to work as a team. 3 is probably my favorite so far. :lol But they still have a few poorly design parts where coop is needed and if your team is sucks...spent about 5 minutes waiting for some idiot on the final level to plant his tracker. Except he never did so I just suicide myself to end it.

My first SP experience this evening with Hypertrooper and another friend
...and it was glorious!
A bit linear/dry and controlled at first but by the end of Ep.1, it hits full old school Lost Planet mode

Is it easier to do the final boss alone or coop? Two groups in a row, with a bunch of fucking idiots. Who some how can't figure out they need to go up to the monster and hit the button to plant GPS. Instead they keep firing away thinking they are doing shit. Why can't I just plant them all and we can be happy!
This game really does separate idiots from people with learning capabilities...or actual intelligence.
Oh if you are going through Coop tonight. Invite me. GT:Shintoki. I have about half done on Normal, half done on Easy, and half done on hard. :lol

No, though I did find out that when you finish an entire episode, it's best to, well shit wait until your in the next one, otherwise it may not save. It happened to us tonight
So yeah, about 3-3
Honestly I can see where all the contention comes from. I mean, you have a 20 minute or so lead up to it and then, well ...it's initially confusing as shit. I think they could have made it easier with a couple simple fixes, like say Which objective is next constantly being displayed in like the upper left/right hand corner. Also, maybe having your position being displayed on the minimap.
Because yeah, by the time me and 3 other friends kinda figured out what to do, it was already to late and that's bullshit. We were already tired because we had just put like 2 hours into the prior episodes/chapters, so we weren't in the mood to do that again.
It's not that it's hard, it's just unfair and regressive as far as game design is concerned
Still have major love for Lost Planet 2 though
