RPD Dispatch Episode 11 - Resident Evil 5

[Vector]

AI is an issue for me. I much prefer the game as a co-op adventure.

For example, I was going for that "Who Do You Trust?" trophy yesterday, and I was knifing the transformer on Public Assembly over and over again, and handing her aid sprays and herbs to heal me. She'd run up ahead, and I'd be standing there with my health in the orange, and I'd say "C'mon!" and she'd look back at me and say "You cahn't be serious." I was like... .

a note regarding Chris's Sheva-playthrough AI problem at the ending ..

Spoiler:

show spoiler

the events can be sped up if you attack wesker a bunch, you should try shooting him some. Personally i've beaten the game a ton of times as Sheva now, and i just run up to the end where the boulder would fall, turn around and start sniping wesker while he's slowly coming towards me. I'm pretty sure damage has to do with it.

also, another advantage of having the AI is that when she's using the mounted machine guns, the guns she's firing will never over heat and stop spinning.

Yeah I would hope the fight is winnable with a Chris AI. I tried 4 times and he never did the boulder for me, but that was just my experience and I didn't try everything.

just finished listening to it, easily the most epic RPD dispatch yet.

Resident Evil : Look on the bright side for the wii sounds amazing

[TheOvermind001]

LMAO! This is great.

[Carnivol]

Oh! Oh! OH!

I just remembered! I dunno if this was during one of the few segments that were cut or not, but at some point I was bringing up a movie that I forgot the name of (and decided to just leave it at that... in shame)

The movie I was thinking of was Deliverance.

This is where that Broski bit was from ;p

Dot made a good point...at times no matter how hard I wiggled the stick, I can't break the holds.

Double entendre?

"You pervert!"

And heres that code book I made when I was very young. I have no idea what date I made this, but I had to be REALLY young..Oh god.

Wow dude - that is awesome. Those are some memories right there. Pretty organized approach for a small kid...you don't have OCD as an adult by chance, do you?

[Dot50Cal]

great podcast, when are you doing number 10

We don't talk about Episode 10... Its funny, we now have like 2~3 episodes that were scrapped. Maybe I'll put them out eventually as sorta B-sides to the podcast.

Aha, I think I was like 10 at the time that was created, and then later on I added the MK Trilogy crap to it. This was before I found the internet or had a PC. I have some traits of OCD, but nothing like Alzaire, who has the unfortunate need to get all S ranks in every difficulty just so they can all say S at the bottom of his screen.

Gonna give this a listen through in a few hours to make sure I didn't miss any vital edits or forgot about some stuff I said I'd post in the topic.

Wow... I used to do the exact same thing when I was young. A few years back I was clearing boxes and other furnature in my parents garage and found a draw filled with files, notes, maps, and cheats for various games from the late 80's through till about 1996... pre-internet. I think I just transferred that sort of thing across to computer when I got one in 1996. I actually ended up using some of the notes I found to make a guide for Alien 3 on the Genesis/Mega Drive which is up on GameFAQ's.

I had passcodes and cheats for just about everygame I ever played in those files. I do think it is a kinda OCD thing, which thankfully I've slowly gotten myself off from doing. But it was definently even a part of my earlier work on Resident Evil sites.

[Dot50Cal]

Ahah, good to know I'm not alone

I didn't even scan the whole thing in. I basically listed like 28 pages of moves for MK games there XD

Edit: Carn, is this Señor Pantalones whom was mentioned in the bloopers?

[Jill's Boob]

Rombie, Dot - I hear you on that. I miss the good ol' days - when you had to find out game cheats/codes/strategies from magazines or from friends. Where you'd furiously scrawl a fatality move onto a piece of paper so you could have it handy during gameplay. Those were the days...simpler times...better times...
