Resident Evil 5 Message Board  

I just got home. How does everyone like it??

Just got through it on normal difficulty. Pretty hard towards the end with the lack of supplies and the crazed africans with AKs heh.

Overall, i'm surprised. It's a really nice game. Well made, and follows up on the story perfectly.

While connecting code veronica x and resident evil 4 with the movie degeneration.

And finally you get to blast holes in Wesker. He has been annoying for too long now

Nice effects and gameplay, once you get used to it.

I'm gonna take a shot at it on veteran in a day or two, to see if i can even get half the way.

Good luck on veteran. I'm only on par 3-2 on the easy mode. But so far I'm liking it alot. They deffinatly did a great job.

My first time through the game was a co-op with a friend of mine, via split screen. It was pretty intense.

Now i'm trying a singleplayer game with Sheva as A.I.
So far i have mixed thoughts of this.

She is always right behind you, and tend to shoot you in the back. There is no way for you to get her to do something unless you run there yourself first and press circle.

I have yet to try the harder bosses in singleplayer. The executioner was well challenging, now that you have to watch Sheva 24/7. She actually got cut down by the fat guy twice.

Lastly i think it sucks a bit that she never uses the knife. She shoots from a distance, wasting loads of ammo. Instead of shooting the enemies in the head and then run to them to do a special move or just slice them with the knife.

It's good that you can pair up with a friend at any point should it be too hard.

And after Veteran comes the Professional mode. I can only imagine how hard that is.


Good luck to you after all. I'll await your opinion at the last Wesker fight

Just shout if you are stuck somewhere, since i've been through it.

I actually don't let shiva have any guns at all. I gave her the stun stick so she just runs away and or stuns and kicks enemies. She does waste alot of ammo. I just let her hold all the extra ammo while I do all the shooting.

Perhaps that's an idea to try. But knowing what will come late in the game, i doubt sheva can survive for long. Some of the encounters are rather sick

About the ammo thing, you can enable infinite ammo after completing the game, though i haven't done so. I intend to do all the difficulty levels first without cheating.
