If it bothers you that much upgrade the sprint..The gel is another resource you have to manage improve your flaws to your playstyle.

Even that guy I never used more than half my meter, he'd run up on me, I'd sprint for 1 second, he'd swing, I'd shoot and sprint meter would be full again.
Confirmed VJC is horrible at vidja games.

So any tips, tricks, and secrets people want to share?
So far I've discovered that shooting
Anything else? Is there a reason to burn stuff other than bodies?

Yeah it's been a strange experience of "Yep, that felt amazing" and "Eww" so far.
Like when some Ganado lady busts through a door and I do a slick revolver headshot that would make Leon proud....amazing.
But then you get janked around in close quarters attempting to do the bottle-->stealth takedown combo, or flail with your piss poor melee....eww
Gimme a few chapters to warm up I guess.

Eh. I consider 'masterful' to mean 'actually good at it.'
He's not. It's too apparent
or too fucking sad.

Just got this on ps4. The moment the game gives you control, the frame rate is TERRIBLE. should've got the Xbox one version.
That opener was scary as shit. Very tense and gory. The game is grippy as shit so far. I like it.

This is on point.
I feel like a lot of people are probably passing by crates and objects you can smash that give you resources, they blend in with the environment really well usually.

oh man the awful framerate on PS4 plus the garbage FOV is making me want to just put it in the mailer and send it back to gamefly. Super glad i did not waste $60 on it!
Nah, don't get me wrong. It was funny at first. But then the shtick wore off, and now I anxiously await his new material.
Okay, I'm in chapter 6 now and just closed the game. The beginning was indeed slow, but man does it pick up at chapter 3 and goes crazier from there. I love how much RE4 vibe this thing has.
The game can be pretty janky at times, for example when trying to interact with the environment or the way the hit detection works. Texture-pop up happens here and there (#thankscarmack) and the game has some diseases of other TPS games (forced slow-walk for example).
But, what a great fucking package so far. The beginning gives you no real impression of the rest of the game; it pushes you from one crazy situation to another and you have to use all your creativity to try to solve the challenges the game throws at you. The game has a lot of mindfuck moments that just happen out of nowhere and throw you into unexpected scenarios that create a lot of tension since ammo is scarce and enemies can fucking eat you like lunch.
So yeah, the game is very hard, but I didn't die very often yet and I have no idea how some managed to die 100-200 times which just tells me they sucked at the game. Every encounter need to be analyzed and then solved; playing it like a regular TPS will make you its bitch. Lure enemies in good sections of levels where you have advantages, make use of none-killing ammo as well and try to create burn combos.
All in all, from what I've played so far, the game has its set of problems but they don't kill my enjoyment of the game. I love the encounter design, dozens of different enemy types and the overall style. Let's hope it gets even better.

What scarier? The fact that he made a joke on gaf about me, or that he then went as far to post said same joke on my youtube review days later?. I mean if he wants a picture of me, all he has to do is ask, it will last longer

I never got caught by the chain saw guy, you sprint when you hear him reving up to swing and you dodge every time. I'm very glad that enemies actually come at you rather than offering you tea first like in Resident Evil 4.
Ok, I will admit I let myself die once to see if your head would come off. And it does it does!

What? It was incredibly easy. Just use the traps in the environment. Beat him using the falling pikes in the house.

I'm guessing to take the attention of enemies. I also noticed if you had your latern on, enemies could see you easily then when you have it turned off. Shooting at the legs lets the enemies fall faster so you could burn them. Shooting bomb traps when enemies are around or near it is always the best way to go instead of wasting ammo. Upgrading your accuracy and critical hits of each weapon will help Sebastian not suck ass with aiming and shooting because you know Sebastian is a pretty cool guy eh insanity and doesn't afraid of anything except he isn't cocky or a superhero (until you make him one when you upgrade) Also, going for the sprint upgrade first is the best first upgrade decision.

What the Fuck is this, how do you know the ONE version is better for sure yet, or are you just talking unknowable shit? Prove it or shut it. I'm waiting for DF before I start saying the ONE version is better than anything.

Enjoying the game, but very disapointed at the same time.
Again, I don't dislike it but I'm quite disapointed.
Well, as far as I'm concerned, it sure is different from what I expected. As far as doing something new, I really don't see any originality so far. The game is skipping a lot of the fundamentals from the classics it's inspired from, yet the "new" elements are far from fresh, leaving me with a pretty linear and dull experience.

Or just shoot him half a dozen times with a shotgun, the fight was easy but it was awesome.
I dropped that game about 2 hours in, wasn't feeling it very much at all. I'll give it another try one day.
I actually never fought more than 3 enemies at once in that entire section, I stealth killed every enemy and then when I
triggered the boss
Chance Hale

Accuracy doesn't seem very useful to me, at least on the PC with a mouse. I'm usually shooting an enemy from pretty close, and if not I'm using the rifle. Critical is the most important weapon stat.
Do your stats transfer to nightmare mode? Doesn't seem like there will be enough to fully upgrade, and I've been pretty diligent.

I meant the way it went from
being all stealth kills to suddenly hordes of mobs after, as well as a guy with a chainsaw. Where did all those extra ones come from? How did they suddenly appear all around the barn.
It was funny watching them from the upper floor just run around the barn forever though.

wow that poster may very well be wrong but there is no reason for the hostility. one thing is for sure - the game runs terribly on ps4.
That too! Entire section was awesome. Just tons of smart design decisions, and genuine surprises. Only thing I wish for is a map.
Oh, okay then, I get that.

From the people that got the X1 version and me included, have seen the frame rate be much more consistent. Must have something to do with the day one 7.5GB update on X1 which for some unknown reason is still no where to be seen on the PS4 version.

Is nightmare the same difficulty as akumu?

I'll be annoyed if I accidentally bought the worse console version. These framerate dips are already annoying me in combat.

Yep, only 2 for me as well.

Nevermind I guess I misunderstood your question, I had assumed they were the same difficulty but just one you die in a single hit.

Nobody knows for sure but what we do know is a certain boss in a certain chapter was killed much differently in casual compared to survival difficulty which makes things pretty interesting.

He's right about he super close FOV and in combination with the black bars in the game it makes them feel way more intrusive than it should be.

all the haunted you didn't kill, i fought him Mano a Mano since I made sure to kill every single haunted before facing him.

Oooo I like the sound of that. Love it when harder difficulties change things up beyond how many hits you can take.
Are the random enemy placements/scares from the demo present in the final game?
Yeah. Doesn't feel that way to me

There is literally no benefit to the black bars, the game doesn't feel more cinematic and actually makes it difficult to see things that are important. I'm getting used to it, but still they would have been better off without the black bars, or at least increase the FOV.

Glad this game seems to be as awesome as it should be. I didn't preorder and with Bayonetta 2 coming out so soon I plan on waiting for a sale but the more reviews I watch the more I want to take my ass to Wal-Mart and start installing it on my PC now.
Well, as long as we're talking about feelings, I'm completely apathetic towards the black bars. I didn't care when I booted up the game, and I didn't care 2 hours in.
I don't mind them. At all. I don't care about their lack of benefit, and I really don't have any problem seeing these important things.
I understand that people aren't going to like the black bars, and/or can't play with the FOV at it's current setting, because they get headaches. I don't think the FOV is set to such a degree that it makes it impossible to play, or even more difficult.

On survival difficulty, no. I am hoping it to be such with Nightmare/AKUMU difficulty.
