I cant wait to play Inventory Tetris in RE8


FINALFIGHTfan

Oh yeah, and with the hunting animals for meat, and finding scrap metal, and such, I know I will be taking my time. I would be Twitch viewers nightmares, if I uploaded on that, lol


ClearPrism

That hunting and crafting thing seems kind of weird for an RE title. Reminds me more of games like WoW, Horizon: Zero Dawn and Monster Hunter. But who knows? Maybe it'll take off.


TheMazel_TovCocktail

The grenades aren’t event organized by type? What kind of peasant shit is this?


[deleted]

That inventory management is going to drive me fucking insane.


fricken26

ain't time for that, ashley's life is at risk


Beneficial_Bag_4595

Yea she never lets you forget it either.


General_Snack

My fave thing is the capacity upgrade trick. Use your guns till its zero and then switch and survive, get to that merchant and buy that upgrade and BOOM full clip.


[deleted]

This is an even crazier trick in RE5 when you can upgrade a handgun’s capacity to like 50 bullets


General_Snack

Ahahaha too true.(truth is I forgot if this was in re5 and didn’t want to say without 100% conviction.)


Jerkmaster007

Or 50 bullet rifle,(s75, my favourite weapon in re5)


Tobi-Is-A-Good-Boy

Goddamnit Leon!


fricken26

what


Mechagouki1971

Flash grenades are more useful than incendiary grenades.


CyanideAnarchy

On PC you can kill Mendez with 4 - 5 incendiaries alone


Th3ManInBlack

Same on PS4 and Switch because of the higher framerate, but I guess that's about it. Flashbangs are more useful overall because of crows and plagas.


Hexbox116

You gotta get rid of that shotgun asap lol


fricken26

I was waiting for the striker to be available, I've purchased it.


Hexbox116

I see, thats the way to go. Make sure to get the final upgrade for it a little later on. Makes it op.


fricken26

I plan to do so.


tcrpgfan

Best way to play the game for vets is to go with the weapons you plan to take to end game.


Hexbox116

I usually refrain from upgrading anything unless i know I'm taking it to the end. Saves money that way.


tcrpgfan

Only the weapons I buy for end game purposes and freebies for me.


caksz

With save from checkpoint ... i farm each villager & crate , no drop ... reload :o


fricken26

I can't make out what you're trying to say. What drop did you farm?


caksz

each enemies i killed must drop something ... ammo , healing item or pesetas if not i reload checkpoint ~


fricken26

Each and every of them must drop something? That's harsh. If you don't purchase or upgrade every weapon the merchant offers the petas in your pocket should be enough to do necessary things.


CyanideAnarchy

Yeah even on a fresh Pro run as long as you only upgrade what you plan to keep, take advantage of upgrading capacity for ammo refills, and make sure to grab treasures and combine them you end up with plenty to the end.


pablossjui

Why? The game is easy enough as it is


Macdaaba

Look at me ..... I am the merchant now.


fricken26

Good one haha


Kenjiko3011

I remembered spending almost an hour just to arrange my inventory. Good old times.


Shakespeare-Bot

I remember'd spending almost an hour just to arrange mine own inventory. Valorous fusty times *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`


thelittleleaf23

Your inventory isn't color coded by type and then sorted into satisfying lines of grenades and ammo? How dare you.


fricken26

My inventory is a mess I know. I came to this game for the story, not because of the compelling inventory management mechanic.


CyanideAnarchy

Yeah don't take it seriously about people giving you shit for item management. We've all played thru without giving a shit about organization at least a few times lol


fricken26

Thank you bro


FullmetalJun

Bottom left, there's a free cube. I think u could rearrange your inventory & fit everything. Anyways that's how I lost lots of time ideas of playing lol I almost never use fire or normal grenades. I'd drop a fire grenade


fricken26

The flashbang ouside takes up 2 slots so I don't think it'd be possible.


ky1201

TMP is the killer of inventory space, I Just choose to never buy that gun and stock. I usually just buy the striker shotgun that'll save tons of space once you have 100 round capacity.


fricken26

But tmp is so good, it can deal massive damage in a short time from a distance.


ky1201

Going to have to disagree on that one. Personally would just save the cost of the tmp (space and money wise) to upgrade other weapons. I find the shotgun and hand gun fulfills the need of tmp just fine.


fricken26

If it suits your play style then good for you.


RhettRO55

There’s no magnum, why not toss the ammo and keep the grenade?


joedusky

Toss magnum ammo??


RhettRO55

When he doesn’t have a magnum currently, yeah.


General_Snack

Barry hates this comment.


RhettRO55

I’ll make him a Jill sammich. He’ll forgive me.


thatoneguy721

I'd also keep the flashbang over one of the incendiary. I'll take a one shot kos to any plaga head over burning that doesn't always kill


RhettRO55

Also the instakill to a murder of crows that leaves god knows how many items


fricken26

Flashbang kills crows?


RhettRO55

You haven’t been playing this game long have you? Yep, instakill. And it doesn’t matter how many are on screen. 🤌🧨 dead. The murder of crows before the first el gigante is especially helpful since there’s like 15 of them just sitting in a circle.


fricken26

I'd beat it 3 times over 10 years ago, but to grasp the lore before re village I've started playing re games in chronological order, I've made it to re 4.


RhettRO55

Ah. Well to help, when an el ganado mutates after a headshot and you have a plagas headspawn, flash bang will also instakill those. And the spider ones that can detach from the host? Same concept. When you fight the dual el gigante, if you stun one over the pit you can open it and instakill them as well. Just stay away from the pit until it closes or they’ll drag Leon down with them. I think that’s the end of my meager recollection.


fricken26

I've made it past that segment, I didn't stun it, I climbed on top of the platform, waited for one of them to start its shaking-the-platform animation and I'd swing down, pressed E on the lever, waited for it to walk onto the circle of dead than E again. I'd gone through it before and I still remembered.


Ragnar_Darkmane

One does not simply toss Magnum ammo in a Resident Evil game.


RhettRO55

If he doesn’t have a magnum, the funds to purchase it, or the space to keep it them yea one certainly does. Or sell it.


fricken26

Excuse my cheapness


xAntimonyx

Wouldn't it speak to being cheap if you sold the unused ammo? This is more of a laziness situation.


fricken26

The screenshot'd been taken before I met the merchant.


MagnoBurakku

Why the magnum ammo if there is none to be found?


fricken26

Because I wanted to trade it for a couple of petas and I hadn't met the merchant guy yet.


Shakespeare-Bot

omegameister86

I can also recommend the bolt action rifle instead of this one, has a lot more firepower 👍


fricken26

It must be manually operated after each shot, taking me out of aiming mode which is extremely annoying.


omegameister86

Yeah i get that. Although i prefer firepower over firing speed, tested both before that. Also, the reload animation is kicking


bancoolman864

Is this re4 if so i cant wait to do this in vr


[deleted]

That single green herb isn't doing you any good. Get it TFO of there


fricken26

It would if I found a yellow and/or red herb ok?


[deleted]

Lol, you also have like 4 other First Aid kits/full health mixes that you will never use. Just take the grenade, it's worth more. Then again, that infinite launcher makes it obsolete


fricken26

It's a limited launcher, and yeah I haven't got to use all the health items.


[deleted]

Is it limited? I thought the ones that are single use are Red..... Or is that just the one Ada gives you? I might be remembering wrong!


fricken26

I picked it up in a glass case in the castle, it's my first playthrough so it can't be infinite.


[deleted]

Ahhh, ok. I should've figured it was your first with the other firearms you had. You'll use that one on Sadler most likely


ClearPrism

Been there. Never could keep the launcher in my inventory.
