Any tips on making RE5 more survival?

I mean aside from playing on pro, which is just frustrating. I was thinking about beating it just with the first handgun, not picking up any other weapons, not upgrading it, and only using one health spray per chapter. Also eliminating all herbs. And adding the noise filter just for that feel of uncertainty and fear. Wht do you guys thinnk?although fighting wesker and jill with sheva AI is just really frustrating, and the plaga type 2 majinis will be really hard to kill. But thats what i want, to be overwhelmed to the point of freaked out!!BWAHAHAHA

Stun rod only run.

Pro is just frustrating.

And all the Majini are Type 2. Type 2 Plaga is the one where a matured Las Plaga is insterted orally and gives almost instant control of the host.


The ones in the marshlands I believe are the Type 3 Majini. Which is like mixed with Progenitor.

Isn't Type 2 genetically modified?

I'm pretty sure that's what type 3 is. Type 3 being those marshland guys. Which is like Progenitor mixed with Las Plagas or something I'm sure.

And Type 2 being the oral one, primarily seen in RE5.

Type 1 being the slow ass ones, where you inject the host, and have to wait for them to get to a machine that can eliminate the Plaga from inside you and the Prez's daughter.

Yeah, but Type 2 are physically different. A mature Type 1 looks like a spider/scorpion. Type 2 mature looks like a little weird thing...

Well this is very interesting. I never really tried on playing with the
filters. More reasons to play through the game again, and I'm also
going to try and consider DeadlyGenetics' strategy on Sheva/Chris AI.

I beat pro with all my unlimited ammo weapons, it was very frustrating at times but you'll get through it.

Not really looking to play on pro.

Look, try my version:

-Activate the noise filter

-veteran difficulty

-YOU CAN USE NO WEAPONS ASIDE FROM THE INITIAL HANDGUN, WITH NO UPGRADES

-You cant use any herbs. The only herbs you can use will be applied by Sheva. No mixing. If you pick one up you must discard it immediatley, no giving it to Sheva.

-You may only use one bought health spray per chapter. The only life you can use are healthsprays, those found while playing the game. The ones you find dont count in the once a chapter health sprays.

-You can use only three rocket launchers throughout your ENTIRE run. i.e I kill giant village majini, a hoard of lickers, and a gattling majini, I cannot use anymore rocket launchers for the remainder of the game.

This is my creation. I call it RE5: Survival edition lol. I just killed the giant bat thing boss that comes out of the truck.

DAMMN.

Okay, I have to try this someday ><
I am going to DIE. REPEATEDLY, EVERY CHAPTER.

What does the noise filter even do? I never used it before.

Well, to me, the noise filter gives it a more gritty feel, more raw, more deperate. Try it out, I totally enjoy it, it goes with the shaky cam theme of the game. Plus, do that with the rest of the things I wrote, and the game becomes cool again (well it does for me anyway lol)

Oh ok, sounds cool to me too.

just put the noise filter,color filtor and start a new game on veteran or pro,
dont use infinite ammo,and if you want pick up only a few guns for you to use in the gameplay,
no grenade lancher,just guns like handguns,shotguns e.t.c

Tried it, its too easy. I prefer my version, its posted above. Thanks for your input though.

Type 1 are the Ganados in RE4.

Type 2 are the Majini as a whole throughout the game.

Type 3 are the gigantic maskwearers in marshlands. Notes scattered throughout the game confirms this.

the notes in the game confirm type 3 is the marshland majinis and the soldier majinis, not just the giant ones. In the notes it says that some type 3 mutated into what became the giant mask wearing majinis. But these were just categorized as type 3 majini.

Hmmm... My bad, went to check and yes, Marshlands and Base Majini are Type 3, the maskbearers being just a few that mutated further. Should've checked first XD.
