is it true the gamecube version is harder? more aggressive enemies and less ammo? trying to get to the bottom of this
On this topic is the 2007 1.0 release that bad? The main complain I hear is QTE displays the wrong buttons and some missing effects, what was fixed in 1.1.0? Is UHD the best for PC? Some people complained about issues with animations and sounds
NTSC GameCube's balance
- Ammo drops significantly more often and Pesetas drop less often
- The Knife does 60% less damage
- The TMP does 30% less damage to Ganados and 25%% more damage to El Gigante and Krauser
- The Red9, Blacktail, and Rifle exclusive upgrades are weaker
- The Semi-Auto Rifle's exclusive upgrade is stronger (0.4 vs 0.8 firing speed)
- The Handgun exclusive upgrade is stronger (50% crit chance vs 33% in UHD)
- Matilda has a slower rate of burst fire, lower firepower, and slightly faster reload speed
- Mine Thrower mines take 2 seconds longer to detonate
- The Merchant's First Aid Spray stock is not dynamic
- First Aid Sprays, Treasure Maps, the TMP, and Mine Thrower are more expensive. Striker and Killer7 are cheaper.
- The Shotgun is more expensive to fully ugprade.
- Flash grenades don't instakill Las Plagas wolves
- U3 takes full damage from magnum weapons (vs 50% in UHD)
- Regenerators take 33% more damage from everything but the Knife
Striker, in the original version you had to wait until at least chapter 4-3 to start upgrading it. In later versions they allow you to tune up as soon as the Striker is available in the sewers before Verdugo.
The way item drops work in the GC version of RE4 is interesting. There are no individual weapon ammo caps, so you can get more than 25 shotgun shells, 15 magnum ammo, and 10 mines at a time. Instead the game caps you at a generic 150 'BulletPoint' value based on the sum of your inventory. The drop rate on magnum ammo and grenades is also much higher--you can do some funny things with just a handgun and a Broken Butterfly in your inventory.
From what I remember there’s a shitload more ammo than other versions. I know there’s different drop rates and I always had the most ammo on GC.
GC has the most ammo but also more enemies onscreen and weapons aren't buffed like they are on PS2 and onward. it's also the only version with real time cutscenes among other things. PS2 and Wii are a joke, GC is the king.
Enemies are less aggressive in the Gamecube version.
The best version is 2023 on PC. Also has real time cutscenes.
The pc version doesn’t replace the silver ghost with whatever primary pistol you’re using in cutscenes like the GC version does so it’s gay
what? GC did that? I don't remember it and never heard anybody talking about it, or about the lack of it in other versions
he's not saying that. he's saying that what's the fricking point of real time cutscenes if they just render the stock shit anyway?
Oh, true
RE4 on GC doesn't render "stock stuff" unless it needs to for story purposes. things like leon's special outfit do render
>more enemies onscreen and weapons aren't buffed
this. gc version is hardest. you can’t upgrade the weapons as much and you get more enemies coming at you
>Wii are a joke
The Wii version has by far the best controls of any version, which actually makes it the most fun to play. It also has the bonus content not available in the GameCube version. cope
>it's also the only version with real time cutscenes among other things. PS2 and Wii are a joke, GC is the king.
Wii had them too…
WRONG. i just played it.
nope. wii difficulty is PAL balanced version. it is gamecube, but it’s the european version which is easier than jp/us version. that is what was used to create the ps2 version, only wii is even easier because it takes the pc version for leon’s movement which makes him move faster than the enemy ai. wii is the easiest. do more research
Everything you just said is wrong, even the PAL difficulty thing.
you seriously don’t know the pal version was balanced to be easier than the japanese and american version? there are legit sources for this. look it up. what’s your source? (you pulled it out of your ass)
i played it on the wii way back when and it was fricking kino, one of the most fun games i've played to this day
Is that true that gamecube version lacks all extra content like separate ways, another Ada dlc that nobody plays, mercenaries?
GC has Assignment Ada and Mercenaries, but not Separate Ways.
All the versions post the GC is based on the PS2 difficulty that is way easier and on top of that enemies A.I and routines are reduced due to memory constraints
The Gamecube version is honestly the easiest version in a lot if ways, there is way more ammo, less money, enemies are (generally) less aggressive, your knife is significantly weaker (60fps + PS2 balance makes the knife do absurd damage)
The biggest thing though is those ammo drops, in the gamecube version stuff like the mine thrower and magnums are actually usable because you get ammo depending what is in your inventory and some other weird shit, but due to how it works you could easily play the entire game only using a magnum if you wanted to. Whereas in every other version (except maybe the wii) you will still get ammo for the handgun, shotgun and tmp even if you do not have them in your inventory while getting next to no magnum ammo.
There's also some tricks exclusive to the original JP release that let you skip huge sections of the game or do certain parts backwards.
on ps2/PC i played with mine thrower; you just have to use up all the ammo so more drops, if you try to hoard up you'll reach a cap and you'll get cuck handgun drops
Yeah it's kind of gay, I have played a lot of most of the ports and with the gamecube one you can easily have 20+ mines where as on the other versions you are limited to it feels like 5.
STOP POSTING ABOUT RESIDENT EVIL 4
RE4 is the worst game in the entire franchise & yet I'd rather play this than the garbage RE4 remake.
Nah that honor goes to RE6, RE4 and 5 atleast attempted to be fun.
Close second would be RE7.
RE4 was the beginning of the end. It's the game that allowed RE6 to exist.
imagine simping for RE3
I don't know; I only played the Wii "All DLC and Extra Stuff Included" version, where I got to simply point at the screen to shoot and also strafe. It was quite easy, and quite fun. Plus I got to play everything since it came with the game.
the only thing extra is separate ways, which is pretty lame.
>is it true the gamecube version is harder? more aggressive enemies and less ammo?
yes, yes, no
No, I'm pretty sure you get MORE ammo (except TMP)
The enemies are more numerous and have more health, weapons are weaker
Random question but does Ashley spill her tea regularly? Or even sometimes? If she does, is it by accident or does she spill her tea on purpose? What are the circumstances involved when she spills her tea? Why did she spill it? What room of the house was she in when she spilled it? Or was she perhaps out in public when she spilled it? Did the tea have an easy time spilling or was it being resisted? How much tea was it that got spilled? All of it or maybe half? Just a little? Did she clean up afterward or did she just leave the spilled tea there? Can other people can smell the tea on Ashley? Does it get her excited? Does spilling her tea make Ashley feel embarrassed or angry? Or is it something she enjoys doing?
Honestly, I am fascinated in the act of spilling tea. I like to imagine Ashley or Rebecca walking into a room when nobody else is around and then spilling their tea right then and there like it's nothing. I like to imagine Ashley sitting on the chair at the desk and then spilling her tea everywhere. Or Ashley standing behind the counter waiting for Leon to bring her overtime and then she just spills her tea where she's standing and the she doesn't even clean it up. She has the audacity to just stand there in the tea she just spilled knowing people might notice it and ask her, "Hey, did you just spill tea on the floor? What did you do that?" to which Ashley might get embarrassed or flustered because she probably spilled it on accident.
I'm contemplating writing a story about Resident Evil girls spilling their tea at random times and then trying to cover it up before another character walks in the room and notices. Like imagine the looks on their faces when they walk in on someone spilling their tea. Embarrassment would ensue and they would be questioning them. "Hey Ashley, I just paid $50 for that tea, why'd you go and spill it?" and it would be hilarious. Honestly guys, I can't do this. I just want Ashley to spill her tea on me FRICK
The enemies are not more aggressive. The AI in the PS2 and OG PC versions are nerfed, with fewer pathfinding nodes and fewer enemies active unless you aggro them. The crowd is bigger, but not more aggressive. Wii version is the same as GCN.
>Wii version is the same as GCN.
it most definitely is not
In terms of AI and pathfinding it most certainly is.
it adopted the PS2 ammo, weapons upgrades, ai. the japanese and american gamecube version is harder than european version. the euro version is what ps2 was based on. wii is a frankenstein of elements primarily from ps2 and pc and is the easiest. gamecube is the hardest
That's nice, except you're wrong about the AI again. In terms of anything technical related (AI, resolution, etc) it's the same as GCN. Don't complain that Capcom edited the difficulty of the game between versions, that's not what a frankenstein game is.
You can aggro the same number of enemies in all versions of the game, it's just that the PS2 and OG PC versions will try to limit this unless you actually go aggro the enemies yourself. The GCN and Wii versions do not have any differences in pathfinding. If you disagree you are wrong.
There's dynamic difficulty scaling that affects what gets dropped, right? Like whether it's ammo, gold, or health? Or is it just that health drops more when you're playing poorly? I've been aware of background dynamic difficulty being in the game and Professional is just the game fixed to the highest level permanently, but, I was never sure what was affected.
Eventually the game will stop spawning some enemies to help you. Yes, drop rates of ammo are affected. Health is static.
I just noticed when I play the latest HD version on Steam, I get a shitload of gold and hardly anything else. I don't know if that means I'm kicking ass or sucking it, lol
>The enemy ai for wii is actually gamecube enemy ai.
Wrong, you apparently do not realize the AMERICAN NTSC version on Gamecube was MORE DIFFICULT than the EUROPEAN PAL RELEASE.... The EUROPEAN/PAL release is what the PS2/Wii/PC ports are all based on, but the original JAPANESE & AMERICAN/NTSC version is MORE CHALLENGING but the EUROPEAN/PAL Release was easier and thats what all other ports are based off of, is the PAL release... UNDERSTAND????
Stop posting. Everything you've said is wrong. I've literally played the GCN and Wii versions of RE4 hundreds of times.
so you have no source. even though there are hundreds of online sources that detail the changes in difficulty between versions, i’m supposed to take your word because you ‘literally played them hundreds of times’ which is an obvious horseshit statement, you haven’t been alive long enough to play a game hundreds of times. provide a source or frick off
>even though there are hundreds of online sources that detail the changes in difficulty between versions
Which all contradict your statement. morons like you are insufferable. I never at any point said the GCN and Wii versions have the same difficulty, I said what you said is wrong, cause it is.
ok now you have to be trolling. show me one online source that contradicts me.
Oh, I dunno, like every speedrun discussion that talks about enemy health or ganados spawn rates? The lake boss is actually all over the place depending on version, it's basically random whether or not he has 10 or 11 hitpoints for whatever version you're playing. No I'm not going to post a source for some idiot that keeps screaming it after it's pointed out that he has no idea what the game's balance is.
No, the Wii version is not the PS2 version of the game except in really minor things like for some reason the handgun model is the PS2 version.
you’re not posting a source because you have no source. you know nothing about which you speak
You're handwaving about sources because the claim you made is wrong and you're screaming about sources to try to cover that. Your claim is wrong, and is what is at issue.
if i’m wrong, you would easily be able to provide a source.
Stop. You make claim, you post source. Do not scream about source over and over again when you make the claim. This is literally your job to prove your claim.
I feel sorry for anybody that never got to play RE4 on GCN in a dark basement at night
