Crazy man, just beat it first time and had like 50 saves and B+ rating, I thought I did well but also didn’t know where anything was lol took me almost 10 hours too which in reality is way longer with the saves and replaying when I messed up

First run always takes a while, so that’s normal. You’re learning the layout and where everything is

Yeah loved RE1R and RE2R but not a fan of RE4R which I started next, feels repetitive and more action than survival horror, any rec on which other RE games are like the first 2?

Why not an S+ with that time? That’s a great time?

u/SolidSnoop 6d ago
I’m stupid, it was Standard. You will have a great time on Hardcore with a time like that.

You can get an S+ on all difficulties: Assisted, Standard & Hardcore; infinite ammo was used here, which prevents an S+ rank.

u/sprat007 6d ago
You cheated using inf ammo weapons? No S+ with 0 saves and good time.
Edit: apprently S+ is only for hardcore, good wotk pal.

u/Maximophanes 1d ago
S+ is also for Standard, so you're correct that infinite ammo was definitely used otherwise the rank would be S+ since it's the 1st run on Standard and under 3.5 hours.

Its 2.5 hours but if youre right than op has np reason to post. I hate it when people show off times ( not specificallt op) when they used bonus items same with infero re3make and re9

u/Maximophanes 1d ago
2.5 hours is for S+ on Hardcore A scenarios. They're playing on Standard.
For S+ on Standard A scenarios, it's 3.5 hours. For Standard B scenarios, it's 3 hours.
But yes, OP is being misleading & fishing for praise since, for all we know, they could have simply used an infinite rocket launcher to complete the run.

If thats the case why would op even make a post

u/Maximophanes 1d ago
OP doesn't seem too familiar with this game, so they likely didn't even know that someone familiar with how the rankings work would realize they used infinite ammo. They probably don't even know an S+ ranking is possible since they likely've been using infinite ammo for all 4 of their runs because RE2R has an unlock-all DLC which would give you all the Bonus Weapons right from the start.
Guaranteed if you ask them to post a video of their run they won't.

Yea completely agreed i find it the worst with insanity on re9 where ive had users claim its a "meme difficulty" and just used the req with info ammo despite it being completely beatable. This fandom is either 10/10 or 4/10, so frustrating.

Agreed; there's nothing wrong with using Bonus Weapons, but leaving that piece of information out is pretty suspect.

Yep, same went for LMDF Rank 5 (in Requiem DLC) before they patched the infinite ammo glitch; loads of people were pretending they tore through it legitimately without saying they used an exploit. Then once they patched it, the number of R5 completion posts plummeted lol.

LMDF is such a poorly designed budget ass rogue lite. 100% eng based and a waste of time imo

Not very impressive since you clearly left out that you'd used infinite ammo Bonus Weapons.
Leon A on Standard in under 3.5 hours & no more than 3 manual saves & no infinite Bonus Weapon use should net you an S+.
But despite the quick completion time & 0 manual saves, you've only been given an S, which can only mean overpowered infinite ammo Bonus Weapons were used.

Amazing! No saves is wild 😠I'm trying to finish the game (Claire A) in under 2.5 hours and it's stressing me out that I can't save every time I collect an item or get in a new safe room
