I mean't with vpn. I'm not exactly sure as to why it's still showing 4 hrs for me even tho i set my vpn location to various countries like Aus and UK
I think Steam is struggling, because it now says that the game will be unpacked after more than a year
Same. Our keys might be region locked...
Jesus the wait is tantalizing. https://b2.crackwatch.com/file/crackwatch-temp/qzfn8424j.gif
Just randomly tried it after a bit. Using UK https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/1807/5e5f0df6-0c87-4197-ab69-f500ea2accf2/image.png
I got my game key off GMG and managed to VPN for a early unlock. I pray for a smooth 4 hour wait for the remaining poor US souls.
I'm going to die of old age by the time this unpacking finishes
Steam is the worst at unpacking. Why even bother preloading.
Welp, im already pissing my pants at the start of the game. This is good.

God damnit I'm gonna be way too poor for it and I would actually feel guilty pirating something for once (assuming it even gets cracked anytime soon because denuvo). Oh well I still got 2 and 3 to go through again, have fun guys.

Guys hardcore mode is *fucking* hardcore. Super intese. I had my worries before but they're gone. The game's amazing.
Shot a zombie 5 times in the leg and it didn't fall down. I was just like "Fair enough, I suppose 9mm bullets aren't made for chopping off legs." Then I shot another zombie in the left leg three times, it stumbled and its right leg fell off.
yeah the zombies definitely have varying health levels (and the game has adaptive difficulty)
There seems to be some element of randomized damage, or randomized health. In the demo, I had at least three zombies that had their heads pop from critical headshots in one bullet each, but then i'd encounter a zombie that would take 3 focused headshots, fall, and then take two or three more. Don't trust consistent kills unless whatever method you're using is 100% guaranteed every time, especially for Hardcore.
Yeah, this worked
I'm like 15 minutes in and one of the graphical effects is really annoying me. Its the rain, it makes everything look like its covered in starbursts flickering, what the fuck causes this? Is there a way to fix it?
Check if it's the screenspace reflections.
can you actually run past a zombo and avoid getting grabbed?
Technically yeah but the lunge hitbox isn't easy to avoid, you need more space than some of the cramped hallways allow and it isn't easy baiting them into a lunge and looping the other direction. If you really want to assure your safety, hit 'em with a bullet first to stun them and sprint by in the brief time it occurs. Their hitstun keeps them from lunging. That is to say, if you managed to trigger the stun with the hit.
I hate all of your currently playing this while I have to wait for another 2 hours because "reasons"
One detail I really love is that everything that happens kinda stays persistant - zombie corpses seem to stay where you killed them the entire game, with the same wounds you've dealt to them. There was this one wall where I dodged a licker swipe and it left deep and huge clawmarks right next to a door. They were still there when I returned like 1 or 2 hours later. Really cool!
Well fuck me i'm impressed. Played 3 hours and i'm getting snide looks of the gf who wants to go to bed.
It was the AA im pretty sure now. SMAA seems to be broken, other people are complaining too on the steam forum (wasnt SMAA broken in RE7 too? jesus). using TAA seems to work a lot better at the expense of minor smudginess. TAA + FXAA was way too fucking blurry
TAA with a slightly larger than 100% resolution scale is the way the go for me to counteract any blurring, though going above is gonna be a bit demanding (prefer 150% myself to not kill too much performance).
Just finished Claire A in the original RE2 just in time for the remake. Wanted to do Leon B too but I guess it'll have to wait now lol. Tomorrow can't come soon enough
Jesus the tyrant is terryfing. Made me take a small break from the game lol.

Reminds me of the myriad of Half-Life betas that are out there, it really is a shame when people sit on these things and screw people over.
