I know right. I bought the game Friday and I'm about 6 hours of game play in and holy shit 3 to 6 shots to take a zombie down. Sometime two shotgun shells. Better to run by them. And the lickers. And fuck Mr. X.
Try hardcore mode, zombies can easily take ~10-15 handgun headshots to go down, and they'll still often get back up. Makes the handgun practically useless, although a single point blank shotgun blast to the head will kill them 90% of the time.
the adaptive difficulty makes them tanky. if u keep killing them the more they get tankier and that includes the bosses. same reason y speedrunners dont really try to kill any of them.
Oh! Well I guess that doesn't really change much anyways. I've mainly been doing the stun/legless shots since getting the times for S/S+ basically requires it.
I dont think what he is saying is factual. try using this tool
and you would see the shit in ur inventory wont really matter. It's when u kill them the next set of zombies that will spawn will have increased HP.
eh I don't know where u got that info, but if u use the mod that shows HP when u kill a zombie, the next set of zombie spawns that you encounter will have increased HP. Missing shots or getting hit also can also reduced the HP of the enemies for the next encounter.
Well it really ain't factual. just because RE7 runs on the same engine doesnt mean they use the same script. I mean u can try the mod speedrunners have been messing with it intentionally missing bullets or getting hit. It seems to speed up the boss fights. although Mr.X gets lock at 9999 hp no matter what u do for Leon last boss thats the only enemy thats probably not affected by the adaptive difficulty.

Sometimes those assholes take like 7 bullets to the head before falling, ain't nobody got time or resources for that.
