Hi I have loads of tips good idea for the thread.
Bloodshots also go to their knees with 2 knife/stun rod slashes with Chris/Sherry
If you see a blooshot on its knees melee it, dont shoot it , don't steal someones 'down' because when you are finishing or doing certain moves, your character is INVINCIBLE, i may be planning to hit him as 5 other zombies hit me, if someone shoots my down i will be massively damaged when i didnt expect to be. I've lost combos by people shooting someone im about to finish.
always look for the next kill if someones about to get a kill, its pointless both hitting the finishing move on someone, unless your doing a 1-2-1-2 kind of attack with each other.
Armoured zombies die from 2 shots to head but its MUCH easier to pump bullets into their legs/waist area, 3 to 4 bullets kills them this way.
Always Melee basic zombies / try to melee/counter dogs for easy time
Learn the spawn points of special enemies and the time in the combo they spawn...heres a few for you
Eg Urban Chaos, Redherb corner, spawns police man with machine guns at 10-20 combo, Spawns Police men with magnums at 100-130 combo
Dogs spawn everywhere between 20-35 folowed by the Firemen zombies
Urban Chaos, Top floor overpass, Spawns Armoured zombies at 48 combo (can blow up barrel or plant bomb)
Urban Chaos Fattie boss spawns at 50, then 2 x Fatties at 105 ish
Bloodshots spawn from 70ish up to 150
ALso the time thing, you wont loose your combo collecting time, but on the current maps it is better to colect them all first, for example on urban chaos ive experimented both ways and if you collect time whilst killing you will loose more time overall from rushing kills and not getting +5s, if i take my time i can carefully melee everyone up to past the dogs and still have 8minutes at 60-70 combo. You have 15 seconds between killing people to keep the combo going, so its possible to collect and kill at same time though i recommend collecting everything first like u said. The only one otherwise is steel beast i recommend the guy who spawns at bottom to start the combo when you get to the room with 3 baddies in (one has a light machine gun) working your way up the guy at bottom meets guy at the top, where you start combo,.
Developing on that Steel beast is the hardest map, here is some tips
Combo from 0-20 on the 2nd floor, the middle one, then at about 25 parazombies drop in top floor, then at about 50 ish you get armoured bosses trotting up from bottom, follow them back down, you will be solid down base floor there till about 120, when you get crocodile heads start heading back up, 130-150 parazombies back to top floor.
goodie locations: urban chaos there is two C4 bombs, a first aid spray in the arcade, and 3 herbs around the map (and a further 3 when u kill fatty)
Anyway it is essential to collect all of these items (and grenades if you want or have room) in order to keep your health up
If someone is DOWN, always Shoot someone Quickly before reviving them, can't stress this enough, COMBO is priority, then get them up. If my team mate is down, I usually get magnum out, pop a couple kills then Revive, Use the spray you collected (there are 2 sprays on Mining Depths/ steel beast and 1 on urban Chaos) to revive people instantly and not loose combo, Spray is WAY better than giving them a pill, which you will usually drop your combo, you will definetly drop combo if you Don't shoot someone quickly before reviving and Don't use the spray like i said..
Another major major thing is to if someone is getting caught, like by a zombie/dog etc , always keep the combo going, dont just stop everything your doing and run across the map to your partner, chances are, they'll be free by the time your there and you'll loose combo, priority Combo, Leave them or shoot a couple bullets at them to free them then get BACK to the combo.unless the boss is eating them., dont save them., dont get distracted all the time and always keep half an eye watching the Combo flashing in the top corner.
If you have mics you can tell the person if you'v lined up a +5 while on the floor, Say if your down, win the stick wriggle and are about to kick Kill someone, often people saved me when im JUST about to get a +5 and that cancels it out and looses the combo!
Final tip is Prioritise. For example, if all these enemies are in front of me, i kill them in order of danger, so Dogs before zombies, bloodshots before armoured zombies, dynamite zombies before any of those
Also when the boss comes concentrate on multi tasking, so weakening the boss, while always Looking for a next zombie to clock the combo up whilst at same time shooting the boss.
And to get the really mad scores you have to sort of save the bosses for later in the combo (ive not succesfully done this on Re6 yet) so for the biggest bonus the two fat guys/special boss would be killed at 148/149 combo.
You also get points for every second left on clock so obivously Melee kills and counters are the best way to keep time
Sorry for the rush style at work right now on my break but love to hear other peoples tactics and find out best way to get high scores.
