N00b on the PC question, how do you unlock the other Mercs stages? Been playing Mercs with a friend, and haven't unlocked any stages. Got an S on Urban Chaos and Steel Beast, B on Mining in the Depths, and nothing on stages. Anyone know how its done?
EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out.

It's kind of disappointing how no one seems to be playing. I'm hoping everyone's just playing with friends, though, and that that's why no one's making games to join.
I enjoy No Mercy a lot if you want to play sometime. My Steam profile
Good games, dragonlife! A well-navigated organized chaos with some sweet leaderboard jumps to boot!
It's hard to tell if it's empty, or the matchmaking is terrible, or even both? (it felt pretty awful on PS3 as well).
To make it worse, you finally find a random partner -> connection error. ;_;

Are there any released mods yet?

Yeah, good games! That was a lot of fun. Rooftop Mission <3 It did us in quite a few times, but it's probably the most fun, frantic, and insane map in No Mercy. It's so goooood.
Yeah, the connection errors are really unfortunate.

I just started playing this and I've got a few questions.
It seems like I'm supposed to be 'stunning' most enemies with bullets and then running in for a melee kill. Is this right? I've been trying my best to do it and haven't had too much trouble getting headshots but I still find myself running kinda low on ammo most of the time.
What are the best skills to go for early on?
Are there any recommended changes for the KB&M control scheme? It feels kinda weird by default.

A couple random ones, like an HD-ified face for Jake and reskins/color edits for the outfits, at least from what I've seen.
I'll be adding you, btw.
What difficulty are you playing on? I did the whole shoot-them-in-the-head-and-rush-in-for-the-melee-kill thing, too, and didn't have too much trouble with ammo on Veteran. You can also run and do a melee attack to stun them, then finish them off with more melee attacks. Or slide into them.
I didn't change my skills throughout all campaigns. I got Defense, Attack, and... Item Increase? I forget.

Yeah, stun -> melee kill is the route. For the starter zombies, using the quick shot (mouse1+mouse2 / lt+rt) will usually put them in the proper stun state to then walk up to them and get a melee prompt. The other tip is to just study their animations during combat to recognize when an enemy is stunned.

I'm playing on Normal, I guess I just need to not be popping off so many shots and do more dash attacks. And thanks for the list of skills, I'll keep those in mind.
Ah, I'd forgotten about the quickshot, thanks!

I checked a while ago, and the third skill was the Quick Reload one. Attack isn't accurate, but it's the skill that increases your firearm damage. I don't remember the exact name.
Beat all the campaigns now. Think Jake > Chris > Ada > Leon is how I'd rank them. I don't really understand how some people felt Leon's campaign was the best. I wouldn't go so far as to call it bad, actually it was occasionally pretty dope (the boss fight in his third chapter still cracks me up, it is so Capcom), but the difficulty completely nosedives towards the end and he has the worst of the final bosses between the main three. Also his first few chapters, while a neat shoutout to the earlier games in look and tone, have some weird quirks. Dumb "gotcha!" sorta moments, basically. Stuff like zombies you can't attack initially, but then will suddenly 'turn on' and lunge at you. Or the vehicle that runs you over at the gas station. Or that janky ass escape bit in the third chapter. I managed to have fun still despite this stuff, but it was a bumpy ride. At least his campaign has Helena. You know, the best girl in the game~
Chris though, wow. His last chapter. That was fucking good. Real shootbang action and real bro love, man. Highlight of the game, eye em oh.

I highly enjoyed the cemetry bit in 1-2-1, was fun.

But I think I will try Chris campaign now as everyone seems to recommend it to start with story-wise. Man I wish I had more time to play games these days.

What's the deal with the infinite ammo option? Why is that option there right from the start?

Because someone can join your game with the skill unlocked.
yeah bro,if chris chapter had some killstreaks to call airstrikes it would have been the best resident evil...
I suggest starting with mercenaries to begin with anyway, as it's a great way to get used to the game's mechanics.
I think mercs is easily the best part of the game, but I did have fun going through the story mode.
If you can't picture being left alone in Mercs No Mercy, it is possible:
In this bit of profound sadness we could not find anyone to finish this combo with until well after it had dropped. ;_;
That is pretty unfortunate. I've had plenty of annoying things happen in mercs. I just finished a solo run of creature workshop (which I'm uploading right now) and I nearly lost the combo at two spots. Creature workshop is just so darn big that even no mercy can't fill the entire stage with enemies all the time.
Wow, I completely forgot about all this predator / survivor / siege stuff. I'm going to be playing this game forever.
Would need Ice Cube voicing Piers instead, then maybe.

Same happened to me last night on Creature Workshop. Got stuck at 298 for a minute or so looking for the last two enemies. Those flying bastards get stuck in the walls and under platforms. Couldn't even hit one of them cause he was clipped too far through the wall. Had to use a flash grenade to get him to drop.
On the other hand, just try not getting spit on during No Mercy Rooftop Mission.
That map was already amazing in regular Mercs, but No Mercy there is just something else. <3
EDIT: Despite the 299, that was still good for #13 and #14 in the duo leaderboards for Creature Workshop. :0

Hey guys,
I passed the prologue and it tells me that i need to finish the 3 campaigns first (which i already did on 360) to access the Mercenaries mode. Is there a way to unlock the mode without doing it ? Thanks

Weird since, I just had to do prologue to open Merceneries. Otherwise you could always use the save editor and unlock up Merceneries.
That is definitely not right... it should unlock right away after the prologue. There was an update when I added the game to Steam, perhaps you need that?
I guess you're playing the German version? As a weird censor, mercs is only unlocked by completing the entire game. In other versions it's unlocked right away.
Jawmuncher

Yep the German version for whatever reason doesn't unlock Mercs until the game is beat (had to deal with that on ps3). I'm seeing that there's a Dave unlocker ill try it out and let you know if you can use it to unlock just Mercs without anything else.
Sounds good like I said if you see me on steam/re6 I'm game to play online.
Honestly I think this would make for a good joke next time leon is in the game and a car segment comes up. Something like
Leon you need to drive you out of here! "I'd rather not how about you take the wheel"

Thanks for your answers guys, that's really strange because it's a French version (I'm living in France). Anyway, i'll try to reinstall or to find the Dave Unlocker you're talking about Jawmuncher, thanks !
Lovely stuff. Except for the Aliasing.
Wow, an actual model modification. It begins! :0
Colors aside it looks rather good, too. I wonder if it's original work or re-purposed from something else?

Sectus, have to thank you for helping on the multiple players in No Mercy tutorial stuff. Been having a blast playing through No Mercy with a few friends.
Having a multi-man stand on top of the central pillar in Mining of the Depth using only Jake, fist-only is more fun than it has any right to be.

Is SMAA injector working for this game?
But RE6 has that.

The thing I find great about Resident Evil 6 Mercs is that, you can completely play it like RE4/5 Mercenaries to still pretty great effect, but there are also new methods and ways you can choose to play it by thanks to all of the new mechanics. Can find a style you play best by with some pretty big flexibility.

I just tried the Save Editor for Mercs play.
Was able to unlock all stages and characters easily with it.
No clue how to use it for Campaign progress though.

I don't like the abc kick combo of Leon.
Kick? You don't get a kick if you do a head shot + melee in RE6.
