Welcome to my Resident Evil 5 Guide, fellow Resident Evil fan! - Berserker
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

L O N G T I M E N O S E E, C H R I S.

Chris Redfield now a member of the BSAA (Bioterrorism Security Assessment
Alliance) has been sent to Africa in order to investigate a reported
bioterrorist hotspot in the town of Kijuju. He drives his jeep along the dirt
road toward his destination and prepares to meet up with another BSAA agent.
When Chris arrives, the agent introduces herself - Sheva Alomar, his new...

P A R T N E R . . . ?

The familiar word echoes throughout Chris' mind as he recalls the tombstone
with the year November 23, 2006 etched into it. You see, his last partner was
a woman too - Jill Valentine. Both Jill and Chris survived the horrors of the
Spencer Estate in Raccoon City - what later became known as "The Mansion
Incident". Jill is now proclaimed dead, but Chris believes she is still alive.
Despite that, casualties continue to the mount over the long years he has
struggled. More and more, he finds himself wondering...

I S I T A L L W O R T H F I G H T I N G F O R ?

Who knows? Maybe one day, he'll find out. Chris has got a job to do here
though, and he's going to see it through. Both Chris and Sheva gather their
belongings and enter the town of Kijuju. They are met with vacant and ominous
stares as they walk down the streets of the town. All they see is death on the
way to their location and then sudden...

S I L E N C E.

A siren is heard in the distance and the town's inhabitants suddenly
disappear...? But where? The two meet up with their contact and he fills them
in on the situation and where they are to meet up with the rest of the BSAA
squad. The contact tells them of a lead that the BSAA has on a man named
"Irving". He also mentions something else... something about a doomsday
project codenamed "Uroboros". Chris and Sheva gather their gear and soon
depart further into the streets of Kijuju to meet up with their squad and find
Irving.

--> WORDS FROM THE AUTHOR

We last met at the Spencer Estate, wasn't it? While aboard the Ecliptic
Express? During Jill Valentine's Last Escape from Raccoon City? Maybe during
the Fall of Umbrella? Or perhaps during the details of the most recent Kennedy
Report? Maybe you have read my work before through my Resident Evil 4: Wii
Edition guide or my Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles guide. Maybe you
haven't. Either way, prepare for a few year's worth of anticipation for
Resident Evil 5 in written form.

How many times have you played the RE5 demo? I've had a fellow gamer ask me
that question over Xbox LIVE and after a long pause, the only answer I could
give him was somewhere over 100. It's actually much more than that, I assure
you. Has there been another demo that you've spent as much time on as Resident
Evil 5? My answer? Never. My obsession with the series has never been so
clear to me.

Like many other gamers, I consider myself a very hardcore Resident Evil fan.
I've been completely obsessed with the Resident Evil series all the way back
since the original game was released for PSX in 1996. Because of this love for
the series this guide will cover ever single solitary piece of information you
can think of and then some.

--> VERSION HAYMAKER (COMPLETE VERSION) FEATURES

This author had a voluntary job to do, and he saw it through!

Version Haymaker is the complete version of my Resident Evil 5 guide. It
includes everything that I wanted to add and I'm hoping it hits my readers with
a force equal to a Redfield Haymaker punch to the face while looking through
it. Not that I want to shatter a reader's head with an overpowered punch, but
I want to make an impact on each and every one of you reading this.

In this complete version of my Resident Evil 5 guide, you will find:

[x] An extremely in-depth basics sections highlighting basic gameplay and
several advanced techniques.
[x] A walkthrough of the main game that details every single piece of the main
game written by a very hardcore fan of the series with the hardcore
Resident Evil fan in mind.
[x] A list section with checklists of every single collectible item or anything
that can be put into a list.
[x] Detailed Weapons and Enemies sections.
[x] A Professional mode guide. This separate section is fully dedicated to
getting you through Professional mode.
[x] A Mercenaries section that will help you to get the most of the mode.
Guaranteed.
[x] A Versus mode section for the extra downloadable content on the PlayStation
Store and Xbox LIVE marketplace.

NETWORK SETTINGS AND ONLINE PLAY \_____________________________________________

After choosing your difficulty or character (after beating it once), you'll
come across the network settings where one can control various online
functions.

--> Co-Op Settings

Rogue = No other player can join in your game. The partner will always
be controlled by the AI only.
Invite Only = Only players that are invited can join.
No Limits = Anyone can join your game at any time, so long as you willingly
accept the player when that person joins.

--> Attack Reaction

This changes whether both characters can hit each other or not. The option is
"No" by default. By choosing "Yes", the players will be able to hit each
other, so if one character stands in the way while another character fires, the
bullets will hit the character that stands in front of the gunfire. A
character's melee attacks can hit the partner as well. Ever wanted to feel the
full force of Chris' Haymaker? Players cannot sustain damage from one another
under this option however.

Turning this on will also make it to where the AI partner will join in on
hitting an enemy after an arm stun melee. While an enemy staggers away after
an arm stun melee attack such as a Hook or Kick, the AI partner will usually
run up and perform a melee to the staggering enemy as well. The attack
reaction can really help out when fighting a Big Man Majini since he can be hit
from either side during a tag team melee sequence.

--> Infinite Ammo

The infinite ammo option allows the host player to choose whether or not
infinite ammo is allowed in the game or not. By choosing "Yes", players that
have unlocked the infinite ammo option per gun can use infinite ammo guns while
playing alongside the host. By choosing "No" no infinite ammo weapons are
allowed and are thereby locked out from use.

Infinite Ammo may be turned on under the Bonus Features section. Choose "Yes"
under Infinite Ammo once the option has been unlocked per weapon to use
infinite ammo for that gun. A player must fully upgrade a weapon to unlock
infinite ammo for it.

--> Xbox 360 Invite:

After allowing a player to join a game by choosing "Invite Only" or "No
Limits", press the guide button on the Xbox 360 controller, choose "Friends"
and cycle to the friend that you want to invite. Select your friend then
select either the "Invite to Game" or "Invite to Party and Game" option to send
that player an invite.

--> Xbox 360 Accept Invite

Open the invite message then choose to join the game. Both players will be
taken to the main inventory menu and both players must choose to start the game
by picking the "Ready" option or one player can choose "Ready" and the other
player will have 60 seconds to manage any leftover needs before the game
automatically starts.

--> PS3 Invite:

After allowing a player to join a game by choosing the "Invite Only" or "No
Limits" open up the XMB by pressing the PS button then select a player on your
friends list and press the /\ button then choose to "Invite this Player".

--> PS3 Accept Invite:

Someone must first invite you to a game of RE5, obviously. You will receive a
message displaying the following:

Subject: Resident Evil 5

Would you like to play RESIDENT EVIL 5 in story mode with me?

Once you receive this message, highlight any friend on your friends list and
press /\ then select "Accept Invitation". From the screen that pops up, press
the X button then choose to "Join Game" when the invitation appears. Both
players will be taken to the main inventory menu and both players must choose
to start the game by picking the "Ready" option or one player can choose
"Ready" and the other player will have 60 seconds to manage any leftover
inventory needs before the game automatically starts.

For Mercenaries mode invitations, the following message will be received:

Subject: RESIDENT EVIL 5

Would you like to play RESIDENT EVIL 5 in THE MERCENARIES mode with me?

For Versus mode invitations, the following message will be received:

Subject: RESIDENT EVIL 5

Would you like to player RESIDENT EVIL 5 in VERSUS mode with me?

JOINING AN ONLINE GAME \_______________________________________________________

--> Icons

The following icons will appear along with each session.

-> Connection

|| || ||

The above icon which consists of three bars displays the connection speed of
the session. If all bars are filled then the session should play normally
with minimal lag. If a bar is unfilled (starting from the right) then a
joining player will most likely experience some online lag in that session.

-> Attack Reaction

\/ /!\
/\ = Attack Reaction Off '---' = Attack Reaction On

The icons above showcase if Attack Reaction is off or on. The symbol
represented by the "white X" means that character cannot hit each other and
the icon showcased with the "red ! inside the bloody /\" means that
characters can hit each other.

-> Flag

Each session will have a flag icon which represents the country that the
host resides in. It's usually best to pick a host from your own country for
a chance at a better connection speed. Joining a host's connection from a
different country will more often result in the joining player experiencing
online lag during the session.

-> Character

Whether it be the actual picture representation of a character through the
quick match or the listed name of the character through the custom search,
the character shown is the character that the host is currently using. The
joining player will play with the other character. Sheva can only be chosen
as a starting character by the host once the host has completed all
chapters.

--> Quick Match

The Quick Match option will take the player to a "Session Details" screen where
the online service will search for an online game session to join. The details
will looks as follows:
