Me too. Played it 10 times and still haven't earned more than 200 points each round. Only getting D's. THIS SUCKS

Did the egg glitch yesterday. Got like 800.000 gold and I still can't upgrade all of my weapons. Did Capcom really thought gamers would grind 60 to 70 hours to upgrade all the weapons?
Terrible.

Just constantly be killing enemies and keep your combo score up as long as you can. Also, melee when you can and memorize where the extra time glass things are.

Terrible.

Highest I got was a C. I tried splitscreen co-op with my cousin and I thought we were doing really good. Finished with a C. :'(

Isn't there an achievement for owning every weapon? After I beat the game on veteran yesterday, I did the egg glitch and bought every weapon at the store and I still didn't have it. I'm almost done fully upgrading all my weapons. Gotta do the egg glitch like 2 or 3 more times. I use the rotten egg because it gives you $90,000 each time.

I wanna beat this game on professional, but my Live gold subscription ran out yesterday and CPU Sheva was frustrating enough already on veteran. I'll just wait for a day when I have free time to use the 2 day gold trial card that came with the game.

Merc tips: Discard the weps you're not going to use, that way no ammo will drop for it. For an easier time, run around and pick up all the time then focus on enemies.

And you need grenades and proxi mine for all wep achievement.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #604 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:41:38 PM »

You also need the longbow and gatling gun for the weapon achievement. Keep in mind that you also need the M93, hydra and handcannon, which are unlocked by upgrading the M92, ithaca shotgun and SW magnum fully.

Beezy · « **Reply #605 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:57:57 PM »

Yeah I got all those weapons, maybe I don't have all the different grenade types in my inventory. Do you need the different types of grenade rounds also?

MCD · « **Reply #606 on:** March 22, 2009, 02:07:12 PM »

no.

22 weapons + 4 grenades.

maybe you are missing the rocket launcher, you can buy that for 10k.

Beezy · « **Reply #607 on:** March 22, 2009, 03:36:08 PM »

Nope, bought that too. I'll check again later.

Third · « **Reply #608 on:** March 22, 2009, 03:54:34 PM »

I still need to buy the longbow and gatling gun.

Beezy · « **Reply #609 on:** March 22, 2009, 06:09:38 PM »

Longbow owns. Don't use the gatling gun if you're trying to get S-Ranks on each chapter. The accuracy will drag down your overall score.

If you turn on infinite ammo, does your score still go on the leaderboards? I did this with the S&W M500.

Himu · « **Reply #610 on:** March 22, 2009, 06:53:15 PM »

Yes, your score goes to the leaderboards.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #611 on:** March 22, 2009, 10:01:45 PM »

What shotgun do you guys use? I like the M3- it has the highest damage rating and seems to have the best range. I haven't really fucked around with the hydra too much, tho.

Himu · « **Reply #612 on:** March 23, 2009, 02:17:59 AM »

I use the hydra

I agree. Jill has been fuglyfied since REmake. :'(

How hard is the 5 hour speedrun? I want to get the infinite rocketlauncher before I start on PRO.

I just read that you can replay chapters to bring down your time.
Should be easy!

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #616 on:** March 23, 2009, 11:47:07 PM »

Yeah, doing a speedrun for the rocket launcher isn't very hard at all. Especially if you can get infinite ammo for some of your weapons- I recommend the L. Hawk magnum and M3 shotgun. Then you don't have to worry about picking up ammo, just shoot shit and keep runnin.

I played with a friend on veteran difficulty. We also spent time getting all the emblems for him, and still beat it in 3:40. It's not hard to do at all.

5-3 is really making me want to break a controller - so far i've just beaten my pillow against the wall. It took me DAYS to get past that fucking drawbridge part, and now i'm getting destroyed on the boss fight. Sheva's a.i. is just not good enough to deal with this shit. IF YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE, DON'T RUN OFF BY YOURSELF JESUS CHRIST

Himu · « **Reply #619 on:** March 24, 2009, 01:11:43 AM »

Ah yes.

Did everything in this game. Beat pro mode tonight and got 1000/1000.

I think I can honestly say, despite all the flaws, RE5 was the most fun I've had this gen, and I haven't even had a co-op partner yet.

I hate to put it this way, but you're doing something wrong. It should not be this difficult.

well initially i was going up to the upper ledge myself, but the enemies would hit me with their attack that requires you to shake the stick (trying not to spoil for people that haven't played) and I could not get out of it. Chris's health would drop in a second or to and he'd die. So I started sending Sheva up, but I couldn't hold off all the enemies when I'd lure them down because I only had a few grenades and it takes two hit with the shotgun to knock them back. I finally went up myself again, avoided all the enemies, grabbed the acid rounds, and ripped into those fucks when they swarmed me. Sheva managed to hit every enemy as soon as they would impale me, and I actually survived.

As for the boss fight, I bet I could actually pass it, but I really want that "deal a certain amount of damage" achievement

What usually fucks me over though is when Sheva runs off halfway through the fight because she tends to get herself killed. Like a million other people have said itt, her a.i. is just not good enough (TAKE COVER FFS), especially on the harder difficulties.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #624 on:** March 24, 2009, 10:16:34 AM »

Is it your first playthrough? If so, don't bother trying to hurt Wesker enough. You're gonna need a magnum with unlimited ammo probably.

MCD · « **Reply #625 on:** March 24, 2009, 11:46:43 AM »

you don't need the magnum, rocket launcher will net you the achievement.

shoot rocket then he will grab it, quickly shoot him with your weapon of choice and that's it, congrats.

doing it on coop is easier and the best way to do it is upstairs, hide behind a wall then shoot when he comes.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #626 on:** March 24, 2009, 05:27:10 PM »

Would y'all recommend this game for solo play? I don't have time for co-op.

The gaming podcasts have been very positive about RE5 but almost everyone mentions that it's necessary to play RE5 in Co-Op.

Himu · « **Reply #627 on:** March 24, 2009, 05:28:48 PM »

It's fine playing by yourself.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #628 on:** March 24, 2009, 05:33:43 PM »

Yeah, I haven't had any issues with it playing solo myself.

Himu · « **Reply #629 on:** March 24, 2009, 05:35:29 PM »

The game is clearly designed for co-op but it's not impossible to play by yourself. Give the ai specific weapons and know when to use cover/attack and you're good.

FINALLY beat 5-3 by using the cheap rocket launcher method mentioned earlier. fight ended right after i tried it. total deaths - thirty-fucking-six, not counting the times i turned off my system in frustration. i really don't know what my problem was, i don't think i died more than three times in any other level $:-\$

Pfffft. You don't even need guns for that boss battle (although if you shoot you-know-who in the chest with a pistol when she's dazed, it will help to finish things quicker); it's easy as fuck. Just tedious.

Infinite rocket launcher makes each boss chapter on professional a breeze, except for chapter 2-3 and chapter 5-3.

Achievements = trophies. Both let you do the same things to get the "achievement"
I have almost 12k gamerpoints and ~350 trophies. I personally prefer trophies, though.

I have the most gamerpoints with Lost Odyssey. I think almost 800.

Bebpo · « **Reply #646 on:** March 26, 2009, 12:47:46 AM »

Yeah I think they're the same too but whatever. I have like 18k achievements, and 250ish trophies. I just buy whichever version of the game is better. I will buy the version with trophies/achievements over the one that doesn't have them because I like them on a per-game reward basis (aka, makes me want to do things I normally wouldn't in a game. Adds replay value). But I don't care whether it's a trophy or achievement or my overall "score". Especially since everyone I know has like 100k gamerscore and 1000s of trophies by now so it's not like I can even catch up.

You're not going to want to ever want to play as Sheva on the very last boss fight, then.

also the graphics in this game are even more impressive than i thought. i was really surprised to see that my characters' costumes changed during the cutscenes because I figured they were all prerendered.
