Hi guys! This is my first post here, I'm a huge Resident Evil fan and was looking to make some Mercenaries (and possibly Versus) palls to jam with online. My xbox 360 gamertag is Frostninja53 and I'm from Ireland (don't know if the time difference effects you lot).

As a mercs player, I'm big into keeping combos, and when playing online I tend to gather the time clocks and bonus timers whilst the other players focus on keeping the timer up with melees and kills. Occasionally I meet up with the other player, swap ammo, and offer support against bosses, but considering I've no voice settings for my Xbox, it can lead to communication errors between me and my partner.

My favourite characters to pick are BSAA Jill and Battlesuit Jill (usually prefering the later for her Sniper Rifle) and my highest score on a solo mission as her was 172,400 on the Public Assembly. Partnered with Rebecca as Excella, I've gotten as high as 700,000+ playing duo online.

If anybody's interested in adding me, by all means feel free! I personally would love to get an SS rank on the Prison level with both Jills as it's the only level so far I have not gotten that score with her. :)

I posted awhile ago here but I'll post again just in case.

If anyone wants a reliable half-way decent partner in Mercs to help them out, just give me an add. :)

I can't recall exact numbers but I have gotten "S" ranks on several Mercs levels and "SS" on a handful of Mercs: Reunion levels, all when playing with an inexperienced partner (my sister, haha) so our scores may have been higher if my sister was more accustomed to the gameplay.
She did a good job, though! :D

I play for fun, 'cause it's a game. I don't pout and scream like a child if we lose a combo and I do my best to be a helpful, considerate partner.

I feel like I'm writing out a resume, lol.

Well, in this economy I suppose there is a greater chance I'll get some new partners for RE5 then get a new job . . . :dry:
 
Im looking for some ppl to play Mercs and Mercs Reunion on PS3. Mics would be great.
PSN same as username.

I think he means the public assembly Mercenaries level.
If so the Executioner Majini.You rack up a lot of points.Yes beautiful points!!!!^_^
 
How do i kill the giant bug in the mines?It always gets me.Was a real pain in story mode as well.
 
This bug, for future reference is called a Reaper! and there so F-ing easy to merk!..
Shoot the yellow bubbles that appear on the body. I've killed them with handguns, it takes focus.

^Well for one they eat a lot of ammo. I dont like wasting my ammo on one creature.Probably try out some explosives which i rarely use in the game.
 
My best for today is 51000 in mines. Atleast it unlocked midnight wesker and the village. I gotta memorise locations and start chaining kills to rack up more points.
 
I don't currently have my PS3, so I can't give exact scores, but in regular Mercs I can usually get an S rank with all characters on most levels (solo), with my favorite stage being Village. I use Wesker Midnight or Rebecca on Reunion. On Reunion I usually get SS solo.

When I'm playing with a partner (I usually stick to one of my good friends but I'll play with just about anyone), we usually get at least a 100 combo, and it's not uncommon for us to hit 150. I think my best score as a pair was 700k or something like that...

As soon as I get my PS3 back I'd be more than happy to play with anyone here :). It might be a couple months, but my user name is Tauni_Rain. Feel free to add me.

I thought ending combos at 50 and then starting again was the way to go.
 
Why would you want to do that if you can easily get a much higher combo? After all, the whole idea of The Mercenaries is to kill as many as you can, as fast as you can, with an emphasis on getting the largest combo that you're capable of.

O.o

The reasoning for that is because after combo number 52 or something, the bonus you get significantly decreases. Or so I've been told. Ever scince I've started limiting my combos at 60 I've had a much higher score per level anyway.
 
Yay me, I got my first S rank in mercs. I could not believe i got it in "the village". Anyways, i am jus happy i got an S rank.
 
S rank in ship deck - score - 68000. I literally s#it my pants after getting an S rank.

You can kill them with a handgun. It's easy. Also, with Wesker S.T.A.R.S. you can take Executioner majinis to their knees with just one shot from the Samurai Edge. Jill BSAA has amazing odds for critical headshots with her handgun. Don't take those handguns for granted ;).
 
^ Yeah i learnt to take out reapers with hand gun. I love hand guns since you get a lot of ammo for the weapon.I also learnt to plant proximity mines at door steps and narrow walk through locations. I am still learning to play the game. I beat every mode in 4. Even broke a 100000 mark in mercenaries using hunk.
