Resident Evil: Discussion Thread [Concluded]

[Splitpersonality]

I love atpg, go to sleep game.

Really, great writeup.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Also I have a question that I can't find an answer to. Is there any way to increase your stats? Or do they remain the same throughout the game?.

Yes;

While searching for weapons or items you can happen to find herbs. There are 10 different kinds of herbs, and some of them heal you, and others increase your stats. If you combine certain kinds of herbs, they boost the effectiveness of both.

Example:

Blue Herb

(Adds Speed +1)
Can be combined with Black Herb for Speed +2, Stealth +2
Can be combined with Brown Herb for Speed +2, Strength +2
Can be combined with Black and Brown for Speed +2, Strength +2, Stealth+2, FULL RESTORE

Full restore means restores 100% of your lost vitality.

Some kinds of herbs do nothing besides heal you unless they are combined with things. Any herb can be taken immediately if you'd rather not wait to combine them.

[atheotes]

How long will the effects of herbs last?

[Askthepizzaguy]

How long will the effects of herbs last?

Any effect they have is permanent (if it is a boost to your stats).

It doesn't matter what character you have. If you found enough herbs you could potentially defeat anyone one-vs-one. No one is given a character so weak they cannot go for a solo win.

I do suppose we are not able to boost our stats further than 10 with herbs, correct?

[Double A]

Is El Gigante killable?

[Splitpersonality]

Is El Gigante killable?

I imagine so, or rather I hope so.

I'm sure we'd need a good sized group of people to take him down though, not sure how many, and I doubt ATPG will reveal his stats :P

[Ironside]

Is El Gigante killable?

Pizza has mentioned that it is previously, but that requires tons of fire power. I suspect tons of vit, insane regen (like 10 vit/ combat turn) and high combat (so hard to hit depite being a giant).

Otherwise 2-3 people with ok weapons would be able to simply wither him down in a few turns. And killing the crowd buster in turn 3 would be silly.

Thread also needs more zombie music for the mood.

[Frozen In Ice]

Another great update ATPG. Can't wait to see what happens next.

[Greyblades]

Interesting that the crowd buster is most likely only killable if there is a crowd of people shooting at it.

[atheotes]

i guess ATPG is banking on the fact that not everyone in the crowd will be willing to stay for many combat rounds. some people will definitely run away after 1st round and most people after loosing certain amount of vitality. When they runaway he will probably make sure that they are split into a few groups or individuals

I see your song, and raise you one.

Yes, you can. The 10-max limit applies only to the start of the game, to make sure someone doesn't have a character that is broken (wins every battle with 20 combat, but otherwise sucks).

Pizzaguy make sure game functions without uber-character cheats. However, skilled/lucky players can gain a larger advantage over time with careful searches and better stats.

Is El Gigante killable?

In the words of an Alaskan governor, You Betcha.

I imagine so, or rather I hope so.

I will put it to you as such: unlike Leon, you won't be able to fell the giant with a knife. If you wish to destroy the creature, you may try.

I wouldn't make it impossible to kill if I didn't intend that it get killed eventually. However I will tell you... it isn't easy, and if it hits you, it will likely crush you.

Interesting that the crowd buster is most likely only killable if there is a crowd of people shooting at it.

Fight or flight instinct, anyone?

I could be banking on his giant fists flattening people in one or two hits.

[Centurion1]

i think i cant even imagine what atpg is banking on because that would imply i understand atpg..... such as why he is killing himself hosting this ginourmous game. (size of this game: see googolplex)

[White_eyes:D]

This is a monster of a game.....

I was thinking of sending a order like..."roll underneath El Gigante and check to see if he has his package intact" And then be squashed like a bug...

Just for fun.....that's about it.....but I will come up with something to amuse you pizzaguy

[Centurion1]

you cant amuse pizza right now hes a robot in host mode. i mean there hasnt been a single sexual innuendo by him yet........

this is more serious than i thought.

He will be best amused by you playing the game correctly. Trust me.

2. YLC turned me into a zombie for his Resident Evil game a year ago, and I the rest of you all should enjoy the same sensation. Join us in death, it's actually quite nice here. The rent is reasonable, and the food is delicious. Once you've tasted human flesh, you never go back.

3. Pizzaguy notices that the 2009 org awards are coming up. This is not a campaign ad, merely a reminder, and a submission for your consideration.

[Double A]

You are welcome for me granting you my time

[Askthepizzaguy]

Those of you sending in orders- here's a tip:

someone in your party can cooperate
someone in your party can search
someone in your party can vigilante mode or stealth vigilante mode or defense mode.

You don't all need to cooperate. Rotate who does and who doesn't.

[Csargo]

Bah. Solo is the way to go.

[Death is yonder]

That's what they all say till we start shooting

[Csargo]

That's what they all say till we start shooting

You go ahead and try. They don't call me "I've got a grenade launcher" for nothing.

[TheFlax]

Hello all,

I just wanted to mention that I'll be joining this game as a sub for King Jan III Sobieski and also to profess my undying love to Beefy.

That will be all, carry on.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yes TheFlax replaces the totally inactive King Jan III Sobieski.

Karo is under threat by the El Gigante this round (don't ask how)

Leet must send in orders soon. He contacted me, so I have hopes.

[Ferret]

Yay Flaxy Baby!

[Stildawn]

How long til the deadline for orders?

[Beskar]

Very soon.

[Diana Abnoba]

Hello all,

I just wanted to mention that I'll be joining this game as a sub for King Jan III Sobieski and also to profess my undying love to Beefy.

That will be all, carry on.

Well now I'm just jealous!!

Hey hon, glad to see you join us in this game!

[Askthepizzaguy]

Only like 36 of you have sent in orders.

6 1/2 hours until the deadline, I will probably be forced to extend the round by 24 hours.

After that, it sucks but I have to move the game along, lest other players lose interest in the game and we have further inactivity problems.
