  • Yea, getting the Handcannon in classic RE4 was much harder. Needed 5 Stars on all 4 Maps with every single character in order to unlock it.
  • @aeric4304
    Me who literally just unlocked it yesterday by doing it the excruciating way šŸ‘šŸ‘„šŸ‘

    The fact you keep your score even if you die basically removes the one real limit of og mercenaries bc now you can go buck wild, spam grenades, spray and pray, and not worry if you get chain sawed or Gatling gunned
  • Was playing the Mercenaries recently. Then I completed the Island S++ with Hunk, then it says "Handcannon unlocked". I swear my jaw just dropped because of how easy it is to get it now!
  • @Shreder108
    Hunk is insanely broken with his one weapon with ammo drops and his mayhem mode will MELT everything in sight.
  • I appreciate that Capcom added this as an option. Beating professional mode on a new game is a big ask, even with every unlockable advantage. Also, Mercenaries is much more fun than Professional difficulty.
  • I also like how they made it so you can use bonus weapons on a new game. For the original they were only available in new game+
  • @Stonkish
    Hunk is the character to use since his melee makes him snap the neck of his enemies, even the Bella Sisters and Dr Salvador, thus making the mercenaries playthrough even easier.

    I'm glad for those who can get it this way, I did pro to get mine but for those who don't want to speed run or do another 15 or so hour playthrough for the HC this is amazing news. Part of me wishes that mercenaries just gave us the PLR back but separate ways is still coming so I'll hold out hope for that. (cries)

    Yeah, this update brought the Platinum/100 percent difficulty down SIGNIFICANTLY. So much easier to get 3 S ranks over playing Professional without bonus weapons. I'm proud to be one of those who unlocked the handcannon and Platinum the original and hard way, but I'm also happy for all the others who don't have to suffer (as much) now.
  • @jlogan2228
    Also, if you are trying to unlock the typewriter or hand cannon by doing a pro run, HIGHLY recommend using the chapter and section skip tricks. The only real downside is that you won't have quite as much money but honestly if you've already played the game a couple times you should know what you need to invest in by now and how to farm extra cash and which sections that are just ammo burners can be skipped I'm hoping they won't be patched bc that's part of the fun of the game. You can choose to play it straight or use the exploits.
  • @klusps
    Itā€™s nice they included an additional options for players. Iā€™m still going to unlock it the original way because Iā€™m already halfway through my professional playthrough (with kitten ears and Ashley armor). I think Kitten ears is much more of a headache to unlock.
  • @PurpleLite
    The handcannon is the last thing i need for the plat and was about to start my final run through the game, great news!
  • @MRJK87.
    Original RE4 "Get an S rank on every mercenary stage with every single character" RE4AKE "Just get one S rank on each stage with whoever you want" HELL YEAH
  • @Spartan77
    I acquired the weapon and did not give it much attention because of the scarcity of magnum ammo but if you fully upgrade this weapon, it has unlimited ammo. This thing is a gem.
  • Now, separate ways is going to let us unlock that alien flash gun that instantly kills everything in sight from the original game
  • @Gilroysmash86
    There was no way I'd make it through professional without bonus or upgraded weapons. This is great news for me šŸ˜‚ Update: unlocked it last night. Now for some revenge on Dr. Salvador in NG+.
  • @Dragon4ir07
    Just wanted to start professional s+ after beating hardcore s+ but i just wanted to check if there is another heartattack friendly way and i stumbled on this video. Thank you very much my friend, you saved me days of pain and frustrationšŸ˜‚
  • @darshan.b685
    OMG u saved my time I was about to complete the whole professional run for this thank you from the bottom of my heartā¤ā¤ šŸ¤ ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤
