I found Claire quite jarring at first, especially in Scenario B where you don't have 9mm rounds
But the Grenade Launcher/Machine gun makes it quite easy against Lickers, Bosses etc and just use the pistols for zombies.

Lol. Just play on Easy dude. I have completed Leon and nearly Clair's A scenario on standard difficulty and I feel it has a very nice balance personally.
You obviously have not even played much with Clair if you still only have her standard pistol, but had enough already
I had the second pistol, the quick draw thing which spits out useless bullets which do little but tickle the zombies. Not sure why Clair should be harder than Leon. But I want fun with games not endless frustration.Lol. Just play on Easy dude.

You are not expected to kill all the zombies you come across. That's made very clear with the ammo restrictions, even on normal. Shoot off a leg and only completely kill zombies in key areas (such as the library) leave them crawling in most areas so you run around them easily. Also try to let the aim reticle get to its smallest form before firing. This increases the chance of a critical hit.
Yep. I do that all the time, did not know if it helped with a crit for sure, but I suspected it
To be honest on standard difficulty I pretty much managed to kill everything. Certainly every zombie. The ammo is there if you do not miss and get your heads shots in. I even waste one ammo on each zombie in the head to make sure they are dead, can use knife for that though if you wanted.
Sounds like you mean the sub, or do you mean the one laser pistol?

when you have unlocked the unbreakable knife will it get stuck in an enemy if you use it as a self defence item like the standard knife?
By the sounds of it you are not that far from the start of the game man. That is like 1-2 hours of gameplay in I think. If you can continue on, you will eventually get a pistol that has a laser on it which you can point at the zombies heads
Pro tip, don't waste ammo on Mr X. Always run. Only maybe shoot his hat off for an achievement

Sounds like they are on 2nd run Claire, where you get a 2nd revolver that uses high calibur ammo right at the start. Can still get the one with a laser sight, but there's no 9mm ammo on 2nd run unless you waste gunpowder to craft it. .45 acp ammo replaces the 9mm pickups.
I just got to the labs on 2nd run Claire. 3:20 at the moment, dunno how people do the whole thing in under 3 hours.

This is my first run with Clair not second and the gun you get along with the key to the police station is just an ordinary gun the quick draw revolver which is pretty pathetic. Perhaps I should use her original gun But that only gas three rounds to begin with.
As I say I will have another go tomorrow.
Did you already play Leon?. 2nd run doesn't mean you played Clair twice, 2nd run is just the second half of the story. Leon->2nd run Clair, or if you do Clair first, then Clair->Leon 2nd run.
If you don't enter the police station through the main doors at the front, then it's 2nd run mode which is slightly harder (more enemies, Mr X earlier). You won't get a decent replacement for the quick draw revolver, that's your main pistol on 2nd run.
Gets a little easier once you get the grenade and smg, but for a good portion at the start it's quick draw and that's it.

That was my list from earlier on the thread. Now that I have completed both Leon and Clair's Scenario A, I feel I can confidently rate this game.
Overall as a game I rate it 9 out of 10. But where does it rate on my list?
1- Resident Evil 2
2- Resident Evil
3- Resident Evil: Code Veronica
4- Resident Evil 3
5- Resident Evil 2 Remake
6- Resident Evil 0
7- Resident Evil 7
8- Resident Evil 4
9- Resident Evil 5
10- Resident Evil: Revelations
11- Resident Evil: Revelations 2
12- Resident Evil 6
As much as I enjoyed playing Resident Evil 2 Remake, it was not exactly the remake I had in mind. Though I know what I wanted would never happen in today's market. There are some that even find this game hard on easy mode somehow. But it is not just that. Basically all I wanted was what they did with the original remake. That to me was a perfect remake. Also not a fan of what they did with Kendo and Chief Irons.
I started Leon Scenario B and purchased the original soundtrack for it and I am enjoying it more this way. The remake soundtrack was ok, nothing special, in a way disappointing actually.
Hopefully they begin a Resident Evil 3 Remake ASAP. Looks like this has done very well for them and a RE3 remake would be a day 1 purchase from me. I actually think a Resident Evil 3 Remake has the potential to gain a higher spot on my list.

After seeing this^ I thought i'd check Steam to see if I could get some early games cheapish. Blimey almost 2 pages of RE games. Going to take some picking through.

TNA that is exactly how I would rank the games, not many people put cv in front of 3 but I would.
Resident evil 0 - cv are the best games ever and the thought of them all getting remade is sadly the most exciting thing in gaming by far for me.
Really doesn't say anything good about modern games, nothing coming out im anywhere near as interested in as any of them getting remade.

Seems RE2 remake has sold well so good chance they will remake 3 at the very least I would've thought.

Yeh it's looking like 3 is a safe bet......hope they don't stop there tho.
There is definitely enough ammo in the game to kill everything with Claire on normal and hardcore, not sure about Leon though. Probably not as the grenade launcher is ridiculous for clearing groups, Claire is definitely a lot easier.

Yes it will, and it can't be used to cut open the tape when you first meet Marvin either.
It's a bit frustrating when you stab it in an enemy in self-defence as you then have to make sure to kill that enemy to get it back.
I completed a Leon Scenario A, S Rank run earlier - 2 hours and 34 minutes, and that was me making sure I had all the weapons upgrades and inventory slots which you don't really need...though I saved my Magnum rounds for the Mr.X Tyrant at the end (on the lift) and it took every bullet I had (approx 21), plus some flamethrower to kill him. That was hitting his little chest bump as well, which was always the weak spot in RE2.
That should make my Hardcore run easier anyway as now I have the infinite ammo pistol.
