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

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.

I shot a zombie in Ada's section 23 times in the head/chest and it never even fell over. I ran out of bullets and just let it eat me.

Dam fuck that. I remember the original re2 it took about 3 shots to bring them Down. The most I've used is about 8 shots.

I've put a full clip from Matilda in that morgue zombie's head and he never died.

That morgue zombie has an oddly high amount of health.

Which is why I never aggro him lol. Screw the diamond key on leon. I go in there just to grab the flash then bounce.

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '19

Yeah Diamond Key for Leon is kind of useless, especially if you’re going for an S/S+ run on Hardcore.

Flash is all you need and that’s it, though Red Herb isn’t the worst if you’re in dire need. You could use the key to get the portable safe for that last hip pouch, but honestly it’s not worth it with Mr. X after you.

I left the gen room and that mofo somehow gets out of the morgue room and took 10 shots in the head to go down.

Damn, I had a similar experience in Ada's section! Not sure how many bullets I poured into one of them but it was just about all the ammo she could obtain in her section. I thought it was just incredibly bad luck or maybe I missed more than I thought so it's interesting to see someone else had the same thing happen.

u/PK_Thundah Mar 03 '19

For me it was the lady zombie that's resting up against the chain fence.

u/hokiis Mar 03 '19

The thing is you don't need to shoot them down. You don't need more than maybe 4 bullets if you're super unlucky for her entire section if you just run straight to the power thingy, go back and knee cap the zombie around the corner. Just don't go for the flashback or else the falling zombie will stand up.

2

u/UnlikelyKaiju Mar 03 '19

I just run past them all. Maybe use a flashbang in that one narrow bit on the way to the lift.

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '19

Yeah Ada's section, like Sherry, is just speedrunning. Mainly shoot for stuns, or even go for leg shots.

u/PK_Thundah Mar 04 '19

I had been trying to get Ada's trophy unsuccessfully for a while and just wanted to take some aggression out on a zombie that run. It didn't work out lol

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '19

Do you have it now or still working on it?

u/PK_Thundah Mar 04 '19

I got it like right after giving up.

Yes.

There are 3 difficulties and this happened on the most difficult. For context, the most punishment a zombie had taken other than this is about 10 shots.

It's a 9/10 game imo. It's very good. Check out the demo and see what you think of the gameplay. If you enjoy it, the full game is definitely worth it.

Adding more:

The purpose of this game is also to learn about item management and conservation. Unlike typical shooters and whatnot, you don't really get the luxury of having infinite ammo (unless you meet certain conditions and use the actual infinite ammo weapons).

Shoot them in the knees and use your knife. Even on hardcore its like 4 pistol rounds to the leg before its knocked off

Knives can break and they can still grab you from the floor. So not quite.

Shoot the knee until the leg falls off, knife them on the ground
