    I'm not sure if the 2 and 3 buttons can be found in the demo? I missed a few rooms so can't confirm but I didn't find them anyway

    Am i right in thinking that its 30minutes and weather you finish it or not in that time you cant play it again?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,918 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    If you're playing on PC, you don't really need to stick to the 30 minute timer

    Yeah, I was just wondering if the PC version is streets ahead of PS4. If it's only marginally better, I might just get in on console as it'll be a month or two before I can upgrade my PC.

    No I'm on about the metal lockers in some of the rooms that have a combination locks on them. Not the lockers where the shotgun is.

    They are apparantly not found in the demo, as they were not in the original journo demo. Possibly the notes for them are either omitted or found in areas not in the demo. Probably the former as the journo demo codes were
    CAP and COM
    and the codes in the timed demo are
    BIO and RES

    So I beat this last night on PC, 23mins like most people. Really impressed. I know the RPD like the back of my hand so I was delighted when a couple of the new scares actually got me.

    I found there was more of a draw on graphics than I expected. When I chose max settings it wanted more than 13GB's of VRAM! :eek: I ended up setting it to 4K with everything maxed except textures which I set to 6GB. I ended up getting frames in the mid 50's with my Titan Xp (no overclock) for anyone who wants an idea of what performance will be like. I did experience some stuttering every now and again but hopefully new drivers will deal with things like that.

    I want to give it a go on PS4 today but I can't find it on the store anywhere :confused:

    What was in them? I played it on PC last night but downloaded it on the X today so will give it a bash later.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    The estimated vram usage is way off
    I set it to use 9GB even though my card only has 8GB

    RIva tuner showed 6.5GB vram usage with thise setting.

    Not a single stutter on my 1080p monitor.
    Perhaps native 4k is too much for your card. It might be possible to set the res to 4k and scaler to 80-90% and get a solid 60 fps.

    My thought as well. Turned it down to 1440 and didn't see any difference. It only happened maybe 2 or 3 times during the whole demo though. Almost like I was hitting autosave points or something and the game would just chug for a second.

    On the psn store, press triangle and select search. Type it in the search bar or skiing the left bar, go to, games and then demos. It's the first one in there.

    This is class, the way the torso comes away from the legs, the hat falls off and then the way the zombie starts crawling at Leon with one arm. I love the zombies in this.

    the excitement in the thread is palpable.
    the only question for me now is deluxe or not deluxe

    Considering you weren't buying it at launch I think you should go collector edition ;)

    stop I'm drinking and vulnerable
    still at the back of my mind I hate the nemesis chasey thing but I'm getting it I was only fooling myself


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,791 ✭✭✭2Mad2BeMad


    Dunno about anyone else but I struggled through the demo. The atmosphere frightened me. Mad tense I love it haha can't wait for this Game.

    Yeah, all the animations are top notch. Like if you kill a zombie at the last second and the body limply falls on Leon so he has to throw it off. Capcom seem to have spared no expense here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,841 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Played through it again, found some new stuff, still love it. I kneecapped a zombie, shot his leg off. Started crawling towards me pretty fast so I shot his arm off, slowed him down big time. That took me about 4 shots total where another zombie took 5 headshots before going down and he still got back up so the strategic shots are worth it. Nice variation in the zombies as well.

    Why did I have to play this? I want it now.

    For anyone who didn't play the original and want to see the difference to the demo. Spoilers, the difference is big.

    Did anybody else not complete the demo? What exactly was required? I spent ages on that safe and it only had a pouch in it.

    You go to
    East wing, then West wing, then upstairs, back down and back to the main hall when summoned,
    that completes the demo and rolls the exclusive trailer which looked story heavy so I skipped it.

    Hmmm... I was in the room with the safe but there was a key needed to get into the main reception area.

    Is it possible to finish the game in the demo? Am I reading this correctly?


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,841 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool

    Nope, you end up circling a bit of the map (nowhere else to go) and when you get back to where you started, a cutscene plays and the demo ends.

    Haha I doubt it, you only have 30 minutes to play it :pac:

    Heh, i was thinking the same, Speed runners would have a blast with this demo if it were possible. But checking the original games speed records, the quickest times are 45+mins. I doubt this version will be shorter than the originals, im hoping a lot longer to be honest..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    The main game will probably be much more than the 7GB the demo takes up.
    Also once you trigger a cut scene that would normally allow you to progress the demo ends.
