The remake of Resident Evil 4 is a transparent game in terms of central gameplay systems, but it still offers enough mechanical depth to provide you with a significant advantage.
Especially if you are going to pass it at high difficulty levels.
In this short material, we have collected for you some simple but useful tips that will help you cope more effectively with the dangers of Resident Evil 4.
Do not skip and do not save yellow grass, as in the original, bushes of yellow grass, combined with green or red grass, are able to increase the indicators of the maximum amount of Leon's health.
This means that at the beginning of the passage, the character is able to survive only a few missed hits, but with the help of yellow grass it can be made more resilient.
There are few yellow grass bushes in the game, but they occur throughout the entire passage, so you should not save them.
Moreover, unlike the original, in the remake, yellow grass cannot be used on Ashley, it is intended exclusively for Leon.
Always keep flash—bang grenades with you Flash-bang grenades are a rare but extremely useful resource. He has two applications.
The first is the ability to instantly stun an entire group of opponents, after which they will temporarily be immobilized and open to a contextual melee attack or a knife strike.
The second use is the instant destruction of the Las Plagas parasite, breaking free from some enemies.
Under normal conditions, the parasite is very resistant to conventional attacks, but one stun grenade is enough to deal with it right away.
This tactic will be especially useful in the case when there are several enemies with parasites in the location at once.
In addition, you will be able to buy a recipe for creating stun grenades from a merchant — be sure to do it as soon as possible.
Actively buy and try new weapons from the merchant — money can always be returned to you In the process of passing the merchant's showcase will offer more and more unique types of weapons — try them all.
Different guns have different features that may correspond to your preferred type of game, so you should not limit yourself to one arsenal from the beginning to the end credits.
Another important point is that weapons purchased from a dealer can be sold back at any time, while losing a very small amount of money.
And if you have already invested in pumping weapons, then in this case you can freely sell it — the merchant buys improved guns at an increased cost.
Pay attention to the mini-game with a shooting range In the third, ninth, eleventh, fourteenth and fifteenth chapters of the game, Leon can find an elevator on the merchant's base that will send him to a location with a shooting range.
There you will find a series of tests, where in a short time, using various combinations of weapons, you will have to shoot various targets.
This mini-game is quite addictive in itself, but it also has a practical application, namely rewards-key rings that can be obtained from a slot machine located next to the shooting range.
Participating in various levels of the shooting gallery, you will receive gold and silver coins (the conditions for obtaining them are specified in the description of each round), which can later be inserted into the machine, from where one of the thirty key chains will randomly drop out.
Gold coins increase the chance of getting a rarer reward. Key rings are special decorations that can be hung on your suitcase—inventory on the screen with a typewriter.
Jewelry is divided into four different levels of rarity and provides you with passive bonuses — for example, an increased probability of dropping things from enemies and strengthening the healing properties of various items.
Do not forget about the knife — one of the main tools of Resident Evil 4, which helps not only in attack, but also in defense.
At the beginning of the passage, you will have access to only one knife — it has a limited margin of safety, which can be restored and improved at the merchant.
In addition, moving along the plot further, you will periodically come across weaker, disposable knives.
They can be used identically to the “main” blade — with the only difference that they cannot be repaired: as soon as the knife breaks, it will disappear from the inventory.
The knife has a whole lot of mechanical applications. They can be attacked in two different ways — with a wide attack on the area or with precise stabbing blows.
With a knife, you can also kill enemies from behind or in a stunned state.
Another knife is suitable to block the exit of the Las Plagas parasite - if the enemy has fallen to the ground and begins to convulse, try to reach him as soon as possible and press the contextual attack button, after which Leon will finish off the enemy.
But, perhaps, the main use of the knife is the parrying system. By holding down the L1/LB button right before an enemy attack, you can completely cancel incoming damage.
And if you get into a small window of “perfect” parry, then in addition to canceling damage, you will also stun the enemy and make him vulnerable to a counterattack.
It is noteworthy that in the game settings, parrying can also be hung on the R2 / RT button, which is responsible for a wide swing of the knife — try this option, it may seem convenient to you.
Be sure to buy a bulletproof vest In the eighth chapter, a bulletproof vest for Leon will appear in the merchant's store. This thing is worth buying.
The peculiarity of the armor is that it is able to completely absorb certain types of damage (all kinds of ranged attacks), as well as compensate for damage from melee attacks, making the hero more resilient.
The disadvantage of the armor is one — it tends to break. The condition of the armor can be assessed by its icon in the lower right part of the screen, near the health scale.
If the armor is broken, go to the merchant and repair it in the equipment upgrade menu. Collect treasures, but don't rush to sell them, dozens of treasures are scattered throughout the game.
You can find them in the most unexpected places — suspended from trees, under the ceiling, in dark nooks and crannies.
They are needed for sale — the merchant will be happy to buy all the valuables you have collected. However, it's not that simple.
Treasures can be divided into three conditional categories. The most basic are treasures marked “for sale".
Such treasures have no additional use or opportunity to increase the value. If you find such an artifact and the menu indicates that it can be freely sold, sell it immediately.
The second type of treasure is multicolored stones. There are six types of them in total.
Red, blue and yellow round stones, as well as purple, red and green rectangular stones.
They differ in price and application among themselves — each of them can be installed in the treasures of the third type, thus increasing the final value of the jewel.
The third type of treasure is the very artifacts that stones are inserted into. Having found such a treasure, you need to go to a special inventory tab and open the item combination menu.
There, in the treasures (lamps, crowns, etc.), it will be possible to install the stones mentioned above, which increases the value of the jewel.
Therefore, if you have found treasures with slots for stones, but you do not have the stones themselves or there are few of them, it is better to hold the find until you can sell it more expensive.
Also note that the combination of treasure stones directly affects their value.
In order to see how the price changes, in the treasure combination menu, click the “Square” / X button and read the table.
For example, the installation of three stones of the same color or three different ones can significantly affect the total value of the treasure.
Follow the merchant's instructions The blue sheets with messages found at the locations are the merchant's requests, which are small tasks with rare rewards.
In the description of each of the tasks, the goal is clearly indicated (for example, to catch a big fish or kill a particularly strong opponent), as well as the location for their execution.
Most of the orders do not require a lot of time, but they offer a very valuable reward — unique stones for which you can exchange special items from the merchant.
Please note that you can't get these prizes for money, so each of the orders definitely deserves to be fulfilled.
