this isn’t RE related dude! call me out in another thread if you insist, but let’s not clutter this one up with bullshit
Seriously. The past several pages have been about black girls that aren’t Sheva or black girls you don’t shoot in the game. Let’s keep on topic here.
Fuckign Sony. Most people in Europe dont use creditcards. What’s the only way to buy shit off of PSN in Europe you think?
That’s right. No Versus for me I guess.
Oh and for people that have a diff region version of the game then you’re in. Shit is region locked. So if you’re in the US, but have a Jap version of the game, you gotta buy the Jap DLC apparently.
So playing Mercs with randoms is pretty horrific. They seem to love Safari Chris for some reason. Why this is, I cannot fathom, for they don’t even use the RPGs on sub-bosses most of the time. Apparently shotgun is for sub-boss; RPGs are for two joes standing next to each other. Silly me. It would also seem that, according to these players, melee kills are unimportant. What is the best use for the handgun? Why repeated chest shots of course. :rolleyes:
The absolute worst one however: on the village map, there was a Giant Majini. I was shooting him in the leg with the handgun and then meleeing. After 3 reps of this, the other player THEN decided that now was a good time to use the RPG. So I took some splash damage and it was unpleasant times.
I tried mercs once with a random. We did ok but at least he knew the map and we both used mics. Time for versus.
Versus Mode Review
after spending some in versus I have my review
pros
-4 player madness (my preference is survivors)
- adds more depth and strategy
- working to unlock characters (to easy in mercs)
-new weapons
cons
-character advantage…example (Zero suit…uh…I mean battle suit jill vs. Sheva BSAA…) although it depends on the player…vs. a wesker alone? broken…
-Health- you will go down faster if you stand in one place shooting…the resitate button isnt forgiving (survivors)
-enemies -although it isnt really a con just I wish there was a way for no enemies to be on but it does make you think quicker before an attack
add me…
Versus mode is a 1.86 MB download.
I’m getting it anyways but paying to unlock something already on the disc is pretty lame.
So are characters unlocked just like that earlier post said? Bought with Exchange Points?
I’ve been playing survivors since I got Versus. Team is annoying since if you fuck up you can’t revive yourself. And if someone has a better character than you you are boned in a way. I wish it was more balanced. Like I dunno, everyone start off with pistols and one type of explosive? Like in a normal multiplayer versus game?
Other than that gripe, there is something quite rewarding about punishing someone’s face after plugging rounds of ammunition into their chest. The stop and go gameplay still works here. It’s different but still fun somehow. Plus using traps is even more rewarding. And I like the tug of war scoring system. It keeps you on your toes always. Even if you are number one you can lose that spot real quick.
So if you like Mercs and you have $5 to spare, I say pick it up.
Played team survivors a couple times now. Basically it seems to degenerate into two people standing still at close range and shooting each other in the head. Whoever has the strongest gun or whoever’s teammate shows up first wins.
A few things I’ve found:
-lure enemies (majini and bosses) towards members of the other team. they will attack whoever is closest
-grenades are really helpful
-melee kill as much as possible
-you are invincible during many actions such as reviving a teammate
-HEAL YOURSELF!
I find Slayers to be annoying. It always seems to degrade into killing the other players anyway.
And no, stop-n-go doesn’t really doesn’t seem to work too well when fighting other players.
I thought slayers was gonna be where you all fight for points and couldn’t kill each other since it leads to the obvious death match scenario.
Yes the goal of Slayers is to kill enemies. But you get 1,000 pts for killing a player, and you lose 1,000 pts for dying. Guess what? It means that most of Slayers is spent shooting each other when you see each other.
OH…that was you that sent the request…im sorry about that man…next time I get on ill add you…
stop n’ go is still pretty fun…you can run around a player while they are shooting for an advantage attack
weskers are broken…this one dude played just like the boss wesker…dashing and kicking
the majini’s and bosses are useful assists
I dispise teams…so im usually on survivors and slayers
rumor has it that there is more DLC to come…something about playing as BSAA characters…(Kurt,dechant,josh) in a campaign
^ Now THAT is some DLC that I could really get behind.
At any rate, I think that Shadow Ace is correct and it will require co-operation from all parties to get the 40-combo Team Slayers trophy. Would any of you other PS3 players be willing to get a match going for that purpose sometime?
When and if I get it, sure.
I would love more DLC. Legit DLC, cause this was obviously already complete, and withheld to sell at a later date.
More Merc character, like Hunk, Rebecca, STARS Jill (most broken character ever) or something like Separate Ways/Assignment Whore would be good.
I’d loved to see DLC that has side missions. Sorta like The 4th Survivor or Separate Ways. Add new monsters, treasure, weapons, and HUNK. I’d be there day 1 for that.
This new Versus DLC doesn’t interest me one bit.
After reading some of these posts, I don’t think I’m going to buy Versus either. Mercs is fun enough.
Save my shit for some other DLC.
Yes, I’ve been begging for DLC Side Missions since the game was first released. I want my Jill quest, damnit.
