RPD Dispatch 8 - RE5 Demo

[Archelon]

Has anyone been able to pull off the Neckbreaker? I got the prompt once, but I missed my opportunity. I'm dying to see it.

[Gideon Quinn]

I pulled off an awesome throat slit move while playing as Sheva and i've no idea how i did it. I guess you need to be behind a stunned enemy, but she grabs them from behind and slits their throat, a la Krauser in RE4.

Anyway, I can't play it online on my regular account due to lack of gold but feel free to add up FeculentOne and we can have some funtimes!

RIP MY XBOX

at least I got to try the demo out though, and it should be waiting for me on my harddrive after microsoft repairs my console

I expect this will be torrented so people can burn to DVD to install on other X-Boxes w/o Japanese Gold Memberships in no time.

Aw no way

Mine red ring'd a few months back but it was fixed free of charge in less than 2 weeks. Microsoft are pretty decent with replacing red ring stuff.

Was fun playing with you for all of five minutes, though!

I love it! got a bit confused with the controls, but now I know wich to use: Tyupe A or C, the other two just don't fit well with me. I died 3 tiemes!!!!!!!!!! I was so pissed off, but now I know how to play... well... just a bit more. I'm waiting for this afternoon, so I can play with friends on split screen

I had to send my console in about a year and a half ago and they sent me a refurbished one in a little more than a week.

No worries, I will be back playing it soon.

[Gideon Quinn]

I'm all about type A. The strafing just feels stiff and mechanical and the shoulder buttons for both aiming and firing also feel a little icky. Classic RE4 style all the way!

Sheva can be pretty dumb though. She got hit by the axe guy no less than 5 times in one stage and ended up dying.

[Beef_jerky_yo]

yeah, Sheva's dumb, she got her head saw'd off 3 times in a row by the chainsaw lady. One time it was after the chainsaw lady attacked me, and Sheva fell over dead.

And putting her on attack just makes her dumb. She stood there trying to snipe the chainsaw lady and just let her walk right up to her while I ran in the other direction. She ended up headless and I ended up giving up for the night. I'll give it another go in the morning before school, if it don't work this time, I'll have to change stragitys.

I'm just wondering how people have done so far. Have you all beaten both areas? What kind of stragitys are you using? I've cleared the assembly area, but chainsaw lady keeps killing Sheva so I haven't gotten through the shanty town.

i dont think its a chainsaw lady, its a man, the lack of breastness gave it away i think . i cleared both parts, the chainsaw guy is kinda tricky at first, he needs alot of ammo, and its harder when your surrounded!

[Archelon]

The chainsaw enemy is actually pretty easy if you use the exploding barrels. He definitely takes more rounds than Dr. Salvador, but he's still quite manageable.

Question: Anyone killed the executioner?

[Dot50Cal]

Sheva is a fucking idiot. She just stands there while you get chopped up by the chainsaw guy. Also, she just got herself killed because she just stood there in front of him. Yeah, thanks game. Awesome.

[revil5]

Where's the AK74? It's been replaced by the MP5?

[Mourne]

I hate to sound like such a belligerent disrespectful bum, but I simply have few options at 8 AM.

Basically, I have no trials left on my 360 (all three used, unfortunately), but as a longtime visitor to the site I thought I'd ask here before venturing to far less civilized pastures (not much of a forum guy myself, but I read in every now and again). Is there anyone out there willing to let me borrow their Japanese LIVE account for ten or fifteen minutes in order to download the demo?

I've done practically everything possible, including trying my own credit card on the Japanese account (no go, obviously). Not sure what I'd be able to offer in return, but if there's anything I can do, by all means.

Feel free to delete this if it's a bit too obtrusive. No hard feelings, I assure you.

[aris13]

So, Dot you don't like it????

[riderkid]

mines scyberkid for japan and riderkidDA for america...waiyt so it works?

Question: Anyone killed the executioner?

yeah, I want to know that too. I must admit, and this is really pathetic, I cant pass the first level , Seva always dyes, though I passed really esaylly the second one, I was asking myself how would they put items such as keys and that (I don't know if anyone cares to be "spoiled" about this, but what the heck, I'll put it anyway)Spoiler:

show spoiler

and they did it pretey well, a very esay mechanism: they apeare on screen, on top to the left, though I don't know were the precious stones (don't remember theyre names, emeralds?) went to, didn't check the item menu

[Gideon Quinn]

Hmm that's pretty odd. Sheva only got killed by the chainsaw guy once for me, and that's because i intentionally tried to make it happen by taking away all her weapons

If you move, she seems to move too. If you're stood still and aiming, she follows suit. She seems pretty reliant on the player force feeding her instructions. Not exactly the self reliant AI we were promised but still pretty handy sometimes (When you need to steal her items)
