His winter outfit from the End of Umbrella scenario in The Umbrella Chronicles.

... Chris' alternate costume, as well, but that's it.

I'm probably going to start a Hard difficulty playthrough today or tomorrow, just to see if I unlock anything by playing through the game that way. I still haven't unlocked all of the alternate costumes, either. I've got Krauser and Leon's RE4 outfits and Chris' alternate costume, as well, but that's it.

Hey, are the files as shrt as they were in UC? I mean, compared to the ones in RE5... though maybe that is to much, since RE5's files are really long (wich is great!)

Unfortunately, on average, the files are MUCH shorter than RE5's, and shorter than UC's, too. But there's cool "figures" of ALL the enemies and most of the major characters in the game that you can rotate and zoom in on (kinda like RE4's and RE5's figures).

What about the audio files that apparently explain plot details? What are they and do they actually explain anything at all?

Not sure, as I've yet to get any of the voice files. Can you get them just by getting the little Umbrella emblems found in the stages?

I think they're just voice clips, not files, but I haven't unlocked a single one yet. I'm starting to wonder if I have to play through on either Easy or Hard to unlock them, because one of the reviews I read said you have to play through the game on all of the difficulties to unlock everything.

A couple questions:

- How many additional weapons (aside from the handgun, shotgun, sub-machine gun, grenade launcher, rocket launcher, bowgun, magnum, linear launcher, and grenades) are there? Am I missing any?
- Can you unlock infinite ammo by getting an S rank on all chapters on hard difficulty? If so, can you get the linear launcher to use whenever you want?
- How do you get the second (good) ending to Operation Javier?
- How do you unlock the additional chapters in Operation Javier?

1) Those are all of the weapons in the game. Or rather, those are all the weapons you get as you progress through the game normally. I don't know if there are any secret or hidden weapons that you can unlock.

2) I have no idea if you can unlock infinite ammo or not. I've only played through the game on Normal, and I haven't even gotten all S ranks in that yet. As for the Linear Launcher, it looks like you can only use that during the Alexia boss fight.

3) You have to beat the final boss fairly quickly.

What Leon yells every time Manuela uses her powers should give you some indication, as he gets more and more desperate the longer the battle takes and the more times she uses her powers, because she's losing more and more blood each time.

4) You unlock the additional chapters by getting the good ending in Operation: Javier.

Well the T-078 is only referred to by that name because "078" was on the capsule it was contained in. It was always the production number rather than model number. Nice to finally have some confirmation on it, even if it is Archives info.

Finally getting to playing this after running errands. I am loving the talk between the characters so much. XD

"Looks like they got the hots for you."

As well as:

"She just want to get out of here, Claire! And she needs our help!"

"Men... You just want to impress her, don't you?"

"Women..."

I'm still trucking through RE2's chapters, but I'm certainly not anywhere near putting down my Wiimote yet.

Hey, let's start the "OMG LEON IS GAY!!1!" bullshit again.

Sure, I'm always ready for that one.

Here's the file on the Tyrant 078. It's specifically listed as "Tyrant (T-103 Mass Produced Type)."

The mass-produced T-103 type Tyrant that was seen in Raccoon City was deployed to Rockfort Island for training by Umbrella's special forces unit. The only differences from the previous T-103 Tyrant is that its limiter was removed and its claws are smaller than those of the standard T-103. It boasts the same strength and endurance of previous Tyrant types.

Can you shoot and kill enemies while there on the floor inactive or do you have to wait until it goes into action mode with them coming towards you?
Can you turn off the re4 style laser line?

Enemies (zombies) cannot be killed while prone, but they can be killed as they're rising (unlike in UC). The laser sights can be switched off.

Out of the bosses in both in RE2 and CV which one's are the best,hard and epic?

I'm going to have to go with Alexia, although the fight against Birkin's II, III, and IV forms is also really cool. What I love most about these epic fights is the music; the orchestra really makes the boss fights more epic than usual.

Did Alexia have her flying insect form?

Yes, and just like in CV, she's a pain in the ass to hit with the linear launcher!

[Archelon]

Well, I've unlocked all of the text files in the RE2 scenario, and most of the text files from the CV scenario. I've still got a few to find in Operation: Javier.

I think News Bot asked about the Tyrant 078 earlier, but at the time I hadn't found its bio. I got it last night, but strangely, it's referred to as a Tyrant 103. It says that it's a modified version of the ones deployed in Raccoon City, with the main differences being that it lacks a limiter coat and its claws are smaller.

RE DSC Tweeter party is closed... Finally. Last posts imply Leon wants Manuela to be his new love interest. Or that he is actually gay. "Delicate girl... Most beautiful young girl ever... Angelic girl..." And crap like that.
