New to RE2? Heres a little tip. Don't try to kill Lickers with a handgun, get the shotgun and kill them. If you're Leon you get it from the gunshop owner after he dies.. if you're Claire you get the Bowgun off him. If you forgot to get them off the gunshop owner I believe there is a shotgun in the STARS office in the locker. Other newbie tips... Use the lighter in fireplace in the meeting room to get the Red jewel (you use it later on with another you find later)... I could go on and on but.. I don't wanna ruin it for ya.

You can't kill me.
If you're confident in your knife skills, go through to the police station without shooting anything. *Dont go back for the shotgun or bowgun as they could get you attacked by a group of zombies* Then, when you get to the police station and go down the stairs into the tunnel, fire everything you got into the zombie you see. He'll drop a special key to use fairly early in the game.
Get the card key and unlock both doors.
I generally go through the large blue doors first; my first goal is always to lower the emergency ladder in the lobby, because you will have to go between floors a lot. My second goal is always to unlock the door in the hallway where birds will break through the windows on your way to the helicopter crash.
If youre familiar with where herbs lie on the map, I suggest leaving them where they are until you need them. If not, be sure to grab and store them. *side note: you want to have a full inventory of full healing items when you reach the final boss.
Be very careful in the lower floors in the jail and past the sewers.
If you plan on playing Claire's senerio after Leon's, leave her something in the armory. (In the first scenario I generally grab the gun because of something I point out later)
After you've left the station and are going through the area where there are 3 so so zombies in every corridor *you'll have noticed the ground shaking above you, etc* (as Leon you'll be with Ada, as Claire you'll be with Sherry), search everything. There is a locker key there in one of the dead end corridors which will unlock a weapons locker in the Umbrella facility later, which will supply custom magnum parts. Claire will also find a Spark Shot, a rather nice weapon.
In the Umbrella facility, go through the blue door first.
When you get to the lower level with the slime all over the walls around a doors, go inside and log onto the computer as GUEST. Do this again on the next senerio to discover a sub machine gun.
Leon will find the flamethrower in the room where you read about security changes, and there will be a plant in the ventilation. I believe Claire will find bolts here.
Make sure you're carrying as many herbs as you can when you reach the final boss. *in the second senerio you'll want to have extras in the storage chest as well, for later.
Good Luck

Master of unlocking...
Don't get killed by zombies... xD
But srsly like all re games, don't waste ur ammo on the slow ass zombies unless u have to. Save ammo for tougher enemies like lickers.

AH my first experience with Resi 2 was back in 2003 after I beat Resi REmake (Never beat the Original, though I have played it, I still like the REmake better.) After I was done completing the REmake I wanted more, so I bought Resi 2. My advice is listen to every sound around you, it could save your life, and hoarde all your ammo, this could also save your life. I don't waste ammo on MR. X because he just gets back up, I just run for my life.
Distance youself from all enemies especiallly Lickers.

Yeah I know... it's fun though to use after you beat the game with no cheats, then I think you're worthy of using a code. Thats my opinion. I never use codes right off the bat. Also though if you're stuck on a part and out of ammo like kristoffer, I think its ok to start over and use the cheat as long as you try again after you beat it with no cheats.
Lol cool. I believe thats the correct code.. I hope it helps out (I'm sure it will
). Don't let it spoil you though, makes sure you beat the game for real with no cheats too.

Through that door, is a seperate reality.

Try to keep a couple herbs on you at all times. Single green herbs so you can combine them if you need room in your inventory. Check your health every time you take damage. If you take light damage and your health gets to yellow it is probably safe to let yourself take one more hit before you use an herb but thats only if you're still in danger and you know whats coming. Other than that try to maintain green health. You should be able to manage this if you collect all the herbs and stockpile them in your item box.
Don't combine 3 green herbs. Two green herbs combined are useful and pretty much restore most of your health from near death. And its good to always combine red and green when possible.
Don't use first aid sprays unless you're dying and out of herbs, they lower your score. Its best to just avoid carrying first aid sprays around. You could just put them in the item box when you find them in save rooms if you're low on herbs.
