Well, finished my first playthrough (not actual first, but first for the HD remaster) with CQC FTW trophy. I'm starting another one with Jill now but with guns this time. I'll try to get everything on every map this cycle.

Here is the laser room scene i copied and pasted from Romero's script (Yes, it was Romero's idea) Anderson stuck it in his movie.
"There are ELECTRONIC HUMS.. CLICKS and CHATTERS emit from
the switchers, PINGS from the heaters, all combining to fray
everyone's nerves. Light beams dance nervously as the
commandos start out across the dark and frightening space.
CHRIS
(Softly to Jill) This is the heart
of the whole place. They've got to
have it... protected somehow.
Two things happen, almost at once. First.. .CHRIS notices
ELECTRIC EYES... on all of the columns.
CHRIS (cont.)
DUCK! HIT THE DECK!
Marini, staggering, screaming in pain, triggers the first
electric eye. LASER BEAMS shoot in all directions, forming
a tight NET. Chris and Jill are barely beneath them.
Many of the other troopers are hit by the beams... but wherever they make contact, small
CYLINDERS above the electric eyes begin to HISS.
CHRIS (cont.)
FOR CHRISSAKE, GET DOWN!
The commandos duck under the laser beams...
Marini is hit by it. His clothes IGNITE. His flesh BOILS.
It's a horrible sight.
Marini is dead on his feet. When he falls, he trips another
of the laser beams.
SULLIVAN
There's no way outta this mousetrap!
RODRIGUEZ
So we live here now?
SPEYER
We gotta run for it.
The zombie hits one of the laser beams.
Did my Real Survival run today and managed 2:58 time. Wasn't going for a sub 3 hour run but it was nice to just barely get it when I wasn't anticipating it. Just invisible and no save runs to go and I'm done (no plat I'm on Steam, its just one of my favourite games so I wanted to clear all the modes).

Oh how I wish they released a native Vita version.
Sorry if this was asked earlier, but do Defense Items disqualify you from achieving this run?

That's the only memorable scene from this entire boring movie. After seeing him rip off and copy multiple scenes from other movies (and he did a bad job at even copying some of them) and hearing him complain one time that the Wachowski brothers were hacks that ripped off GHOST IN THE SHELL to create The Matrix, he's more and more revealing himself to be just a total hack fraud. He's such a boring and uninspired ''director'' that kinda fell in the cracks of the system because he showed he could make something that looked kinda like a movie. What a bore.
Wow. That felt good.
It does.
You can't stomp heads either.
I didn't even know you could stomp on zombie heads. How do you do it? Does it take their head off?

Yeah. Which I'm very glad I knew about beforehand.

Would you guys recommend this to someone who loved 4, but only really played 4?
Didn't finish RE5 because the setting bored me, but I figured this would be a good game to play for level design/mechanics
I imagine it's not scary, but a good game is a good game, unless this it feels dated..

Its one of the best games ever! Buy it twice if you can ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Nope. That was only relevant in RE2 and CVX, if I remember correctly.
It is scary but you have to do it right. You have to play it at night with all of your lights off on normal difficulty (mountain climbing setting) with the old controls. Make sure you do that last one.
If the setting of RE5 bored you, this game is certainly for you. This setting won't bore you.
And it's only $20 for one of the greatest games ever made.
Whoa, whoa, whoa... Back it up. I've played this game since it launched on the GameCube and I never knew head stomping was a thing. How the hell do you head stomp?
If a lying zombie grabs your leg, your character will automatically stomp on it's head. Similar to what happens in the cut-scene when you unplug the bathroom on the first floor if you play as Jill (minus the throwing up reaction).
What the hell did they do to the guardhouse music on Remastered? it sounds like shit. Dual Shock basement quality.
It sounds nothing like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rgpXAU2DhA

Whaaaaaa? Head stomping is a thing since the original in 1998. Guess you never came close enough before^^
EDIT: Jill even kicked the head like a football.
I chose one bad thing from GR's script and contrasted it with one bad thing from PWSA's film. If you want me to make a list of all the bad stuff in the script next time, I will
In the late 90s, Romero had only made Night, Dawn and Day, so there was a lot of hype over him making a RE film. But given that he was closer to making Land, Diary and Survival than those films, and given the terrible script, I've no doubt his RE would have been bad.
Jesus fucking Christ, these Crimson fuckers wake up quick! I always thought it was a decent amount of time from what I've heard, but I swear I had two on me 20 mins after killing em. Nearly had a heartattack. I now get a cold sweat whenever I see a zombie laying on the ground.

Do the bossfights count as "enemies dispatched" ?
Varies per difficulty I believe, obviously harder being faster and so on. In the residence I killed that zombie in the ladder room, did the underground bit and when I came back he was ready and waiting. Kinda shit me up as I wasn't expecting it at all and I tried to go as fast as I could haha.

I don't think so. Not 100% sure. Even less sure about the fights you can skip like the spider.
That's why I played with Chris on Normal first.
Then I played with Jill in Very Easy and just breezed through it.

Don't give up. The very beginning of the game is by far the hardest part on normal. After you start clearing up the mansion a bit, you'll find that you have a wealth of handgun ammo and first aid kits

What's best for a first playthrough? What character and what difficulty?
Jill and Hiking (easy)
GreyOcelot

There is a file related to it, it's later in the game though. After a few CH encounters
I know it's possible to complete this game in like an hour and a half but damn if I didn't spend about 2 hours just in the Residence last night!
Definitely taking some remembering after not having played this game for 10 years. Loving it though, I wish they still made games like this

I figured this, but forgot since my GCN days. Gives returning players a wtf moment with encounters, then explains it. Some of the shock value would be lost if you knew it was coming.
Sweet, thanks.
Jill and mountain climbing (normal) and old controls. Absolutely do not do it on easy. Normal isn't that difficult as long as you go into it with the mindset that you don't try to kill everything. Running is the first option. If a bunch of zombies show up in a room, run out as fast as possible and then take alternate routes. I'm almost through the game and I have several areas of the mansion that are just totally off limits. Some of them have multiple crimson heads. I just look on the map and try my best to avoid those rooms.
This is what you want. You don't want a walk in the park difficulty where you can just blast everything without thinking. You want it to feel like the mansion is dangerous and you're trying to survive it.
Yeah, the shotgun is good for the crimson heads or just run. Grenade launcher is a little overboard. I saved that for more powerful enemies.

The grenade launcher comes to great use in the second part of the game with
the hunters.
Crimson Head Elder after putting the death masks in their place.
Yawn is weak to acid rounds as well. Incendiary rounds are also pretty useful if you wanna kill zombies and guarantee no Crimson Heads but isn't necessary.
Death Metalist
Member
Yes forgot to mention Yawn, it's pretty much needed if you want to kill it fast.

Plant 42 goes down with only three flame rounds (Aim upwards or you might miss.) and the huge spider boss goes down with two flame rounds. Other than that and Acid rounds for Yawn I mostly use it for Hunters and Chimeras. But you might as well waste everything on crimson heads as well, the grenade launcher in REmake isn't nearly as overpowered as in the original, it's barely stronger than the assault shotgun.
Death Metalist
Member
Black Tiger and Plant 42(If you're playing as jill) are entirely skipable bosses so that's great. Yup, it isn't that overpowered but it certainly is better than nothing.
adamsapple
Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
So is the Tyrant.
Hell .. I was pretty surprised the GL took down Tyrant quicker than the Magnum did. The Acid rounds our OP as fuck.

Think it's around half an hour on normal. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Certain events can wake them up instantly too.
