Hi, there is an achievement in RetroArch/RetroAchievements for RE2: Dual Shock Version for PS1: Complete Scenario A and B without killing any zombies (First sequence only). Did you meet this challenge? How was it?

[@CarcinogenSDA]

that's an absurdly difficult challenge for most people. that's basically a knife only thing.

[@laynescott8370]

Hey Carci. I have a question. I have the American vanilla version of RE2. Will the strats you've displayed here work on my version of the game ( Most specifically the RNG on Birkin G-3/G-4)?

[@CarcinogenSDA]

US version takes less ammo on G3/G4 actually

1:20:05 Apparently Claire A and Leon B is only acknowledged as canon. If you look up the T-00 on the Resident Evil Wiki he confronts Leon and Ada and non canon confronts Claire and Sherry in Claire B. So Ada being F'd up by T-00 instead of falling is what really happens.

[@CarcinogenSDA]

did i make a mistake? because i knew that Claire A/Leon B was correct and I think I mentioned it somewhere.

[@YeagleJeff]

I don't know if you did. I just caught you saying "nobody actually knows how ada survives that". I use to consider Leon A and Claire B to be canon, which confused me when I played RE4. I just think they don't consider it canon because she'd be dead.

So, this story happens right in the middle of RE3 story line, about the time when Jill is unconscious in that clock-tower chapel. We saw how streets of Raccoon are literally clogged with all wrecked cars, police barricades, dead bodies everywhere... But here, we se both Leon and Claire just casually driving into the town, no car wrecks, no barricades, nothing. Little consistency Capcom!

[@solidsnakeandgrayfox]

It would have been a huge amount of rendering for the ps1, not saying it can't be done. However they probably wanted to save resources for it.

[@cw3le]

@@solidsnakeandgrayfox RE3 came out maybe year after this game and it also ran on PS1, which had same hardware throughout the years. As I remember, RE3 intro shows a lot more stuff than RE2. Also, those videos were pre-rendered and just played like regular video clips, so it all comes down to not planning the story properly.

[@solidsnakeandgrayfox]

@@cw3le true, I forgot about that. We also got to keep in mind, they were probably trying to keep everything in check, and planning was poor, but after the backlash that was directors cut with basement music lol.

[@co81385]

I haven't played original/classic/1998 RE2 in a while, but I think that I remember the B scenarios having more difficult boss fights, but the rest of the game is a little easier, because it seems that you get more ammo for your power weapons. You also get the Shotgun/Grenade Launcher slightly earlier in the B scenarios.

[@jesuscobra3636]

@@co81385 What you said is very accurate. Also, on the B scenarios is less going back and forth to get the important/necessary items. More zombies appear on B scenarios. And like you said, tougher bosses but you get a little more magnum rounds and grenade rounds!

Considering it has about a massively tiring and long trigger pull (double action, think glock) there's no way it would be like that. He'd be squeezing as hard as he could by that point with his many rounds as he fired already.

Hi Carci, I'm puzzled about something. In the comment section of your 1:11:20 speedrun, you mentioned playing on a PS2 Slim with Fast Disc Load Speed. However, in that speedrun, the loading times for the doors are longer than in this playthrough. What did you play this on? I've only seen fast loading times like this on PSP!

[@CarcinogenSDA]

I’m pretty sure i did this run on psp this isn’t a speedrun so it doesn’t matter anyway

[@vexedev]

Hey Carci, I remember you had another RE2 series on your other channel explaining the differences between Normal and Arrange but can't seem to find it. I just can't seem to get a clear-cut explanation of it. I just fired up Hard Arrange on the Sourcenext PC port, and I get no auto aim, more zombies, and differently arranged enemies. While on Original Hard, I had less enemies, and auto aim enabled. Everybody on the internet says that Arrange should be easier, I just don't find that the case. I'm just trying to play the game as hard as possible. Any explanation would be appreciated, thanks!

[@CarcinogenSDA]

Arrange Mode Hard is indeed the single most difficult way to play.

[@TheRealPhillipHerman]

I know this is old comment - but if you want to play a PUNISHING version of RE2 get the Dreamcast ver. (GC release may work as well) and select the nightmare difficulty. It lives up to its name. I couldn't get very far at all. If I remember right the ammo is scarce enemies do insane damage, and turn into complete bullet sponges.

Thx in advance.

[@CarcinogenSDA]

I may or may not have mentioned quickshooting. If you mash R1 while firing, you cancel your recoil into another shot. More accurately, you are supposed to time it, but the window is 1 frame, so it's better to press it as many times as possible.
