I woulnd't use the Striker on Salazar though as the Firepower is greatly diminished because of the distance.
Do you use that peashooter on bosses?Nemises;53709 said:blacktail
On the first gigante I use the shotgun, but only because the TMP is so weak that early on. When the TMP is upgraded some more, I find the shotguns's rate of fire too slow for slaying a giant. The TMP can deal more damage quicker.Nosophorus;53746 said:Wow, I usually use a shotgun for el gigante, and either killer7 or b. butterfly for the rest.
But the bosses, what about them?aintnoscrub;53745 said:i stick to the pistol and shotgun throughout the whole game.
Same here. For large enemies like gigantes I use the TMP.Levan;54431 said:TMP = dead Gigante. I'd rather use up TMP ammo than fire on the big guy's parasite with the magnum.
I can easily see you run out of shells if you use shotgun almost all the time. Unless you are really close you are going to waste alot of firepower. (Unless you have the Shotgun with the exlusive upgrade.)Revenantjack_2.0;65052 said:
As for me, I prefer to use shotguns almost all the time during boss fights. When I run outta ammo, I'd switch to grenades.
Yeah you'll definitely want to work out gun-specific strategies if you ever do attempt professional. If you just 'run and gun' you won't get very far on professional, be assured of that!Revenantjack_2.0;65153 said:Yea, I don't really use any strategies, I just use whatever weapon available at that moment. But I prefer to use the shotgun most of the time. Just run and gun, that's my style. Heh.. this style of gameplay got me stuck on the twin El Gigante boss fight though...
inch:
OT:I already finished the game on Normal though. I don't think I'll be playing the Professional mode anytime soon. Since RE5 already came out for quite a long time, and the announced Gold Edition is coming soon, I'm just looking forward to get me a PS3. Hopefully I can get it this year!

Just quietly, kick and then knife opponents in pro wherever possible to conserve ammo. There are some scenes that you can easily run out of ammo in if you haven't conserved properly beforehand...for example, the cabin fight in 2-2, the water room in 3-1 and the military area at the start of 5-4.Revenantjack_2.0;65176 said:Thanks for the advice. Maybe I'll attempt pro.
