Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (PS4, PSVR, XBO, PC)

Wow the Japanese version is really censored compared to the Western release!

The censorship is odd, I mean presumably they left in chainsawing jack and other horrendous things.

any tips?

With Molded, try to block (LB) when they lunge and dodge where you can. Should you need to fire your gun, headshots are key. Or try to take out their limbs to slow them down. Shooting at the torso is a bullet sponge, so don't waste your ammo.

Heads, always aim for the head. On normal difficulty. 4-6 headshots is more than enough, for ones with big black claws on one side, run, unless you have grenade launcher. :datass:

Aye. For my second run-through the game I did a sub 4 hour, no more than three heals, no more than three item box uses run on easy mode.

Sub 4 hour completion gets you the circular saw and X-Ray specs.

4 hours!!? How long did it take on your first play through?

Took me over 13 hours. :shifty:

That's more like it, still short compared to Resi 4 though

cheers. I did try blocking but they do seem to take a lot of health off. I think maybe I need to just run away a bit more rather than fighting them all. Especially the one in the mortuary with the big arm. He kicked my ass.

enjoying this though. Has proper made me jump a few times now.

The speedrun was actually like 2 hours 45 or something. :datass:

That was easy mode though with post game unlocks. My first completion on normal was like 9 hours twenty IIRC.

Anyone (PS4) played Banned Footage 2? Any more substainial than 1 (or less cut out of main game)

Still wavering on the pass...

OK someone's going to need to help me out here.

I'm currently at the part where you are looking for 3 dogs heads in order to open a door. (I have 2 already)

My save point is a small room at the top of some stairs. When you do down the stairs you meet the Moulded (maybe the first time you meet them)

So far, there are

1 Moulded in the mouldy corridor
1 Moulded in the Crematorium
1 Moulded in the room with the scorpion key
1 Moulded that comes out the wall in the mouldy corridor
2 moulded in the bath room
4 moulded in the Boiler room

Once I get past all of that, I then end up in a boss fight, die then repeat.

I really don't get why I am struggling so much with this game so early on, whilst others seem to just progress with no issues. At least 10 of those mouldy strawberry floaters, and even if you shoot them perfectly that's at least 30 bullets.

2 questions

1) am I supposed to have a shotgun at this point? I seem to find a load of ammo but no gun (I had to put the shotgun back as the door locks when I pick it up)
2) How do you beat the boss? I kicked a hanging body at him and he stumbled. That's about it.

Have you got the Scorpion key yet? If so head to second floor and go to granny's room. A broken shotgun is in the spare room along with ammo I think?

Brerlappin wrote:You dont need the shotgun for the boss. It does help tho. I cant remember where, but there is a broken shotgun in the house that you can swop for the working one. For the boss, he has 2 stages. When you drop in just blat blat him with pistol/shotgun rounds for a bit, and hell collapse, before going and grabbing himself a super weapon. There is a chainsaw you can pick up in the same room he gets his super weapon. Use this to kill him. Anung pointed out a very useful strategy is yo can actually crouch to avoid his big attacks and then you get free chainsaw attacks on his feet. Its not a very good boss fight and doesn't give you much feedback that you're actually pursuing the correct strategy, but rest assured as long as you are hitting him with the chainsaw/gun, he will die. Theres no trick to beating him, but it does feel that way at first.

Also use the meat sacks to knock him off balance.

I don't get the hate for jack - I think it was one of the game's high points. Do we have the right to demand feedback in 2017? Okay, it might not be INSTANTLY obvious what to do, but with instant restart it really shouldn't take more than 2 or 3 tries to work it out.

The bit where he gets it in the head? I haven't felt that way for a long, long time.

I wouldn't even fight the moulded. Run past all the ones you can.

Brill, thank you all, that's actually all very useful info. I have just got the Scorpion key so will go grab the broken shotgun, do a switcheroo and then see if I fair better with the bigger gun.

When people mention dodging, is there actually a dodge mechanic that I am unaware of, or are we just referring to running around them etc?

Despite being stuck in the same bit for the past few days I have been really enjoying this. It feels like they have taken the Farmhouse bit from RE4 and really expanded on them. It just all feels very dynamic if that makes sense.

You can sometimes dodge high attacks by crouching but there's not an actual dodge button. Just run around them. You shouldn't be killing anything in the generator room for example, it's big enough you can avoid the enemies and unlock the dissection room.

Close all doors behind you to stop enemies following.
