This is a significant aspect that shouldn't be overlooked but seems to be in some of the reviews. Can't tell if it's on purpose or by mistake though.

1)There is 4 PLAYER CO-OP FOR CHRISTS SAKES!!!!!!!

2)Graphics absolutely DESTROY the console versions....60fps, much better textures, better lighting and NONE of the slowdown that the console versions suffer from!

3)Incredible mods as well such as custom maps/stages, thanks to Sectus!

4)Mods that allow you to play as different characters not intended to be played such as the big black Majini with the gattling gun, and the fucking Reaper!!!

5)But best of all, it's now $19.99 on Steam!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes yes, but can you reset your save!?!?

Got the game yesterday, love it but the sound effect and voice samples are awful, the sound quality is subpar at best. Also I don't like the structure of the missions, just give me the 8 maps and I will play them as much as I want, small mission after small mission is stupid for this kind of game in my opinion.

So that explains a lot... TOSE is indeed in the credits. GJ Capcom. Also, Alyson Court was seen in the list confirmed. Doesn't credit her as Claire, but who else would she be. :D

The more I play this, the more I wish there was a 3DS version of RE4.

The 3D would make a great addition to that game.

I can't seem to get an SS rank for 2-1. I can kill everyone by 0:57 but it just gives me an S :(. Maybe someone other than Krauser can get that SS.

Can they only be unlocked with the coins? If so, where do i "buy" the load outs?
Click to expand...

Go to character select, then weapon, and then click one of the question marks and it will prompt you to unlock loadouts with coins. You can also unlock them by SS ranking all the missions with each character I think.

Well gentlemen,

The one good thing that I can say about this game, is that has exposed Mercenaries to a lot of gamers who otherwise would have ignored it in RE4/RE5, and new RE players who've never played it before.

Gentlemen, do you now realize how great this mode is, and why it absolutely SHITS all over every other mini game in existence?

If you're enjoying the 3DS version now, and haven't played Mercenaries on RE5, then I really really REALLY suggest you pick up RE5 on the PC because that is where Mercenaries *REALLY* shines! Perks the PC version has over the 3DS/console versions:

1)There is 4 PLAYER CO-OP FOR CHRISTS SAKES!!!!!!!

2)Graphics absolutely DESTROY the console versions....60fps, much better textures, better lighting and NONE of the slowdown that the console versions suffer from!

3)Incredible mods as well such as custom maps/stages, thanks to Sectus!

4)Mods that allow you to play as different characters not intended to be played such as the big black Majini with the gattling gun, and the fucking Reaper!!!

5)But best of all, it's now $19.99 on Steam!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Run don't walk to your PC and buy RE5 NOW!

Then proceed to send me a friend request so we can play Mercenaries CO-OP. My GFWL name is GroovyGhouliez.

That is all.

Is Mercenaries unlocked by default in RE5 PC, or do I have to play through the damn game for a 3rd time to get it?

Unless something is wrong with my copy, you have to beat the game again.

You could download a save file or something, otherwise you need to finish it again.

I'll need to input your code.

EDIT - I started a thread in the community forum. If you put your info there, it might keep things tidier.

Man I wish they would update the 3DS firmware with a message system, especially since you can press home and view your friends list without quitting the game.

TIP!

if you get grabbed, and are annoyed at the awful prompts, just mash all the buttons, it doesn't count an incorrect press as a fail. this was my most hated part of the game until i discovered you can mash your way out of a grab.

i'm having way too much fun with this! i've been bouncing between a few friends getting SS ranks

having voice chat is definitely nice and helps so much for this too

Played a match with a stranger on 4-5, we were down to just the two Wolverine Garradors and one mook at the end, but we both somehow ran out of ammo.

Ran around the stage for six full minutes like chumps spamming the taunt buttons, occasionally trying to knock the mook down a ladder to try and melee him to get a piece of ammo to blow up all the barrels in the stage. Was unsuccessful.

I hope to god there isn't some bizarre combination that allows you to use the knife.

Jill's weapon set lets you use the knife.

Who's stronger: Krauser or Wesker? I can't tell between the two. Krauser seems to have more insta-kill attacks while Wesker's melee attacks seem to kill everything after one punch.
