Teh Paralyzer Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) For a walkthrough of the game please follow wright3034s helpful tips http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=330586 *Currently being edited as requested* Road Map by TVthePunisher Overview: - Estimated achievement difficulty: 5/10 (provided you use Ashley's Suit of Armor costume for Professional) - Offline: 12 (1000:gsicon:) - Approximate amount of time to 1000:gsicon:: 15-20 hours - Minimum number of playthroughs needed: 3 (Professional is unlocked after completing the game once but 2nd playthrough will be Ada's campaign 3rd should be pro.) - Number of missable achievements: 3 ("What are they worth?" "Do Not Shoot The Water" " A Terrifying Assassin") - Do cheat codes disable achievements?: No cheats - Does difficulty affect achievements: Yes ("A Heart of Steel") Easy mode (EU and JPN only) will not unlock Pro - Glitchy achievements: N/A - Unobtainable achievements: N/A I listed it as 15-20 hours based on the casual gamer. If you run through maybe collecting less than 50% of the treasure, don't kill every single Ganado you see and only upgrade some of your weapons to max you can be done with your first playthrough in roughly 5-8 hours. If you take your time, that could reach MAYBE over 10. Regardless, you would then have to complete Seperate Ways which could take anywhere from 3-6 hours and THEN complete Professional mode afterwards. Professional Mode is unlocked AFTER completing the story. (Easy Mode in the EU and JPN version will not unlock pro mode.) The games are different in each region* yet share the same list. *German Version is missing Mercenaries and Assignment Ada however they aren't needed for achievements -Play through the main game, unlocking the 8 story achievements (1 is tied to an easter egg) and try to knock out the "What Are They Worth?" achievement in this run. -Play through Seperate Ways to unlock "S is for STYLISH!!" and obtain Ashley's Suit of Armor -Play through Professional with Ashley in the suit of armor. Reasons that this is beneficial: 1.)Ashley is immune to all damage. There are VERY few ways to actually kill Ashley while she is in the armor and all of these are through exploits of in game sequences. I believe one of these is leaving her to be killed by the moving drill machine in Chapter 3 or 4 (I can't recall which)...but I may be wrong, it is possible she might actually just be pushed forward by the machine (like physically through the gate). Anyways, no enemy can hurt her and that's what counts in Professional. This includes El Gigante that attempt to pick her up and squeeze the life out of her, no damage will befall her (correct me if I'm wrong, of course). 2.)The suit of armor that she's wearing is EXTREMELY heavy. One of the main problems in the main game is when Ganados constantly try to carry her off, well this isn't possible anymore (especially during the sequence where you have to snipe Ganados going after her in the Castle). As soon as any ganado picks her up, they'll fall flat on their ass and drop Ashley immediately. In fact, you can stand back and watch as two Ganados constantly try to pick her up only to fail every time. 3.)You do not have to bother healing her, at all...this means that all health items you have on you can be saved for Leon only. This will help especially considering how few hits it takes to kill Leon in Professeional. In fact, you can virtually ignore her aside from puzzles. No longer do you have to hide her from enemies, worry if some are going after her...in fact, she acts as a strategic way to LURE enemies in so you can pick them off with your knife. 1) Start up Resident Evil 4 (Not on Easy) and Playthrough the game following the below solutions. It's all in a Story Order and make sure you earn Do No Shoot The Water! when you get to Del Lago. 2) When you see a Shooting Range play it. Earn all 6 bottle caps from the ranges and you earn some decent money. This can give you a little extra boost to the weapons you want. 3) After beating the game start up the next campaign Separate Ways http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/+3QIdA==.jpgIt Begins With a Ring 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Ring the mysterious bell. What happens after that, is up to you. -Story Related- Chapter 1-1 During the Village battle near the start of the game you can run inside a building on your left hand side which will trigger a cutscene to Leon blocking the door and a Chainsaw guy will show up. Up stairs is a Shotgun which will aid you in survival. Just survive this until a bell rings in the distance. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/+VUBwQ==.jpgDo Not Shoot the Water! 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Summon the master of the lake. Don't rock the boat. Chapter 1-3 The Boss fight with Del Lago. Do not start the fight by entering the boat. You can shoot the water a couple times to piss him off. He will come up and kill you doing so. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-RcSqw==.jpgA Rock and a Hard Place 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Outmaneuver the rampaging beast, El Gigante. -Story Related- Chapter 2-1 The fight with El Gigante. Shoot him until he drops then run up and hit the Action Button to Cut the parasite on his back. Depending on your mashing this may take 2 to 3 times. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-PfqOA==.jpgSecure the Ballistics 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Rescue the president's daughter, Ashley. Afterwards, the real fun begins. -Story Related- Chapter 2-1 When you rescue Ashley in the Church. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-tbjjQ==.jpgA Bloodline Severed 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Defeat the village chief in battle. -Story Related- Chapter 2-3 At the end of this Chapter is a Boss Fight with the Village Chief. Use an Upgraded TMP to finish the job faster. He is close to death when he breaks in half. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-zYbHg==.jpgA Terrifying Assassin 150 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Turn the tables on Verdugo, the right hand of Salazar. Chapter 4-1 The fight with Verdugo. This enemy can be avoided but you're going to want to stay and kill him. When he gets close to a liquid nitrogen tank you can knock it over to freeze him. This will buy you time to unload on him. If you have a Rocket Launcher you can kill him in 1 hit if he is frozen. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-BEPEA==.jpgThe Castellan Falls 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Defeat Salazar, and make your escape from the castle. -Story Related- Chapter 4-4 Like it says this is earned by Defeating Salazar in the Castle. Stay to the far right to avoid the tentacle. If you run out of Ammo check the bottom floor. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-fH3gw==.jpgThe Ties That Bind 50 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Defeat Krauser, your former partner, in battle. -Story Related- Chapter 5-3 The Knife actually hurts him the most. When you get a good chance to get a few knife hits in go for it. Makes the battle end a lot sooner.

Teh Paralyzer Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 (edited) http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-k8aQg==.jpgWe're Going Home 100 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Defeat Saddler in battle, and escape from the nightmare. -Story Related- Chapter 6-1 The fight with Saddler can be quite annoying but it isn't the hardest of the game. Pay attention to his movements and shoot his eye when it's open. When he hits the floor you can run up and stab his eye in a sequence or use a Magnum shot to the eye to do some nice damage. Use the cranes around the area to save ammo. When Ada throws Leon the Special Rocket Launcher use that to put the final blow on this guy. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-G4T9w==.jpgA Heart of Steel150 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Clear the game on the highest difficulty. This is earned by finishing the game on Professional. Select COSTUME 2 for Ashley to have on her Suit of Armor. This makes Ashley invincible so you never have to worry about her dying during your Pro run. PRO Tip: If an enemy is about to grab you from the front Quick Turn to get grabbed in the back and avoid damage. PRO Tip 2: A green Open on a door means it will grant you a checkpoint. You can force checkpoints in rooms and kill as many enemies as you want and leave. They do not respawn and you can give yourself breathing room. PRO Tip 3: If the Merchant dies he won"t come back The achievement unlocks when you are awarded the Special Weapons. http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1865/-Y7rZA==.jpgWhat Are They Worth?150 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Acquire all of the bottle caps in the game. As you progress through the game you will find blue doors with weapons on them. They are near Merchants. There are 5 in all but visting all 5 is not required. You may enter the last shooting range and earn all bottle caps. Below is a list over requirements. There are 24 bottle caps in all. 3 are located in the Castle and another is located on the Island (near a hallway with enemies constantly throwing TNT) and you can find another near the end of the game can't miss it. Easy tip: Every Game Type (A,B,C,D) Try to hit all 25 targets first then after that just score above 3000 and you will unlock them all eventually.

Leon McLane Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 1) first 9 achievements are story-releated achievements. 2) To unlock all costumes we need to complete the main game AND "Separate Ways" 3) finish the game on the highest possible level - the best way to do this is to select knight costume for Ashley and play easily without being worry abou her. 4) To unlock all figures - comlete shooting on the Tirs with best rating. 5) That's all http://gamercards.exophase.com/122186.png http://gamercards.playfire.com/_/xbox/375815/0/default.pngXbox Gamercards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy game if the bottle caps aren't to much trouble for some. I can't believe the Hand Cannon is not an achievement. THANK GOD! I hated doing that.

Raider Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Playing the game on easy lets you replay with the Chicago typewriter did't it, basically a machine gun with infinite ammo. Should make doing hard, VERY easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0cke89 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Going to Professional straight is the only challange fpr the 1000. Though it would only take me about 2-3 hours to beat it on easy and then just rape professional ;D Man, I can't wait to play this. Jope they include speed run leaderboards, that WON'T get hacked >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ham Woopan Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 If I remember correctly you cannot carry over guns to a harder playthrough as in No typewriter for first pro run. Right. The only way to play a different difficulty was to create a new game and each time you did, you started out with nothing. You only kept your weapons and items on the particular save you beat the game with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel55645 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 will def be an easy 1000, code veronica will be a bit difficult but should be able to still get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gor1lla Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Bell Achievement: Personally i don't think that you are right, because Leon doesnt ring it. So its either SOMEONE ELSE (no spoiler ) or they mean the bell you shoot where you get loads of ammo and money (i think it was in the church) Also the "chainsaw guy" is named Dr. Salvador Del Lago: Same as above, when you look at the achievement name it is clear, that you have to shoot at the water a few times to summon him. I believe that they mean this and not killing him Verdugo: Collect the RPG a few chapters before and keep it. Freeze him with the tanks to triple the damage and use the RPG - One Hit Krauser: It helps to knife his knees to make him go down, i know that it is not the actual battle (in the ruins), but that part is much harder Saddler: Use the crane to make him kneel at the end you can decide if you want to use the "special weapon", if not it can be transferred to a new game+ Also you should add the "unmissable, because its part of the story" thing in the achievement descriptions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh Paralyzer Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 I see what your getting at by why would the first achievement in the game belong to Ada. Also I know Chainsaw guys name but how many other people would understand when I say "Dr.Salvador approaches Leon". Also when has shooting the water summoned him??? Never heard of that I might have to try it. Thanks for the Verdugo tip. Keeping the special rocket launcher has nothing to do with the achievement which is why I left it out.

Gor1lla Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Didnt want to say her name Maybe it is story related, but the description says "Ring the bell" and basically you don't ring it with Leon in the beinning, guess we will see it, when the game is released Dr. Salvador sounds much cooler =( You have to stand at the end of the balk and shoot ~5 times in the water, then the monster will grant you your wish to die fast I know that the RPG doesnt match in, but i sooo love RE4 and just want to talk about it :> Declare it as tactic or smth Just remembered that the easiest way to kill Krauser is to dodge his attacks (QTE) and knife him afterwards, should kill him in a few seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh Paralyzer Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Yea I questioned the fact that Leon doesn't touch the bell yet the first one on the list is to touch it... I can't wait to play RE4 to find out. This game is amazing I can see why you would want to talk about it haha it's just that good a game. I would love to play this game again for probably the last time unless it gets remade again haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caramel Cardinal Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 correct me if i'm wrong but don't you have to fight El Gigante before the choice bit and won't the achievement be for that instead seen as there in chronological order instead of the latter one you kill the first one on the way back from the lake in the trapped area where if you let the dog go it comes to your aid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gor1lla Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 You are right, but you just kill him there. The achievement says something about "outmaneuver" him and that matches with the point where El Gigante chases you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacokorn77 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Wow, this is going to be an easy 1000. As many times as I played RE4 in it's many previous incarnations (GameCube, PS2, Wii), this is going to be a walk in the park. I'm already going to give a rating of 3/10 of difficulty for this, simply because Professional mode really isn't that hard, given that you've played through the game a few times to understand enemy movement, wave formation, (mini) boss weaknesses and tactics and have an understanding to where your pesetas should be going in terms of upgrades (ignore the TMP, please, for the love of god, ignore the TMP). Those multiple playthorughs shouldn't be a problem, because RE4 is a fantastic game, and you should be compelled to play through it multiple times, not just for the achievements, but for the sheer fun of it.

The Stray Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 (edited) Well, a couple of things should make sense from what the previous posters mentioned about certain achievements, but here's what can be missable, just 2 though. (Or maybe more if you choose in different paths.) "Terrifying Assassin" (Since you can just escape from him, but wont get you the achievement) and "What are they Worth". (If you don't feel like getting all the caps though in 1 play.) Edited July 15, 2011 by The Stray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aricardo947 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 On the gamecube and PS2 if you selected to load your save back up (new game +) you then had to select the costumes and then the difficulty. Also why does every one go on about the typewriter machine gun? The handcannon for 0 units is by far the better weapon, especialy with how much space it takes up. PLUS the light cannon (can't remember it's name) you get is absolutely class, and a god send when it comes to groups of enemies. The only things i have to point out that haven't already, is the fact that the costume achievement, empesizes the S. Making me question wheather we will need to S rank the game/chapters. This won't be easy with the typewriter as it's accuracy is non existant. I know i'm going to get slated for this, but i thing the TMP fully upgraded is far better than the typewriter, mainly because it can be used as a pistol, head shot - stager enemy - go in for a hand to hand/knife attack. Fine the typewriter is powerful, and unlimited ammo, but the lack of accuracy had cost me against shield enemies or plagas enemies. Where as the TMP has never let me down.

Chapter 2-3 At the crossroad where you must pick Right (El Gigante) or Left (Bella Sisters). Pick the Right route and escape El Gigante as fast as you can. I'm not sure about this, but this achievement sounds like you have to defeat him the first time you are forced to fight him. I could be wrong, tough...

zzamaro Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 correct me if i'm wrong but don't you have to fight El Gigante before the choice bit and won't the achievement be for that instead seen as there in chronological order instead of the latter one you kill the first one on the way back from the lake in the trapped area where if you let the dog go it comes to your aid Exactly. This is what I thought. If the achievements are in the story order, then that one is the one where you have to fight him, where the Ganados free him and then got killed by the El Gigante himself. We can't really tell which one is but the evidence point that our suggestion is probably the correct one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVthePunisher Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 If you guys want to make this a harder 1000G, do a knife/handgun run and try to combine it with no damage. I succeeded in it and let me tell ya, you have to know EVERYTHING...Saddler's a real bitch until you figure out how to avoid getting hit at all and just slash away. Regardless, I can't wait to add this to my completed games...and I'm so happy it's a 1000G instead of like...200 ^___^ thank you Capcom, you did something right. And you didnt' make any insanely difficult ones either, yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVthePunisher Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 (edited) Here's a few things I'd like to add in: Overview: - Estimated achievement difficulty: 4/10 (provided you use Ashley's Suit of Armor costume for Professional) - Offline: 12 (1000:gsicon:) - Approximate amount of time to 1000:gsicon:: 10-15 hours - Minimum number of playthroughs needed:2 (Professional is unlocked after completing the game once) - Number of missable achievements: Two ("What are they worth?" and "Don't Shoot the Water") - Do cheat codes disable achievements?: No cheats - Does difficulty affect achievements: Yes ("A Heart of Steel") - Glitchy achievements: N/A - Unobtainable achievements: N/A I listed it as 10-15 hours based on the casual gamer. If you run through maybe collecting less than 50% of the treasure, don't kill every single Ganado you see and only upgrade some of your weapons to max you can be done with your first playthrough in roughly 5-8 hours. If you take your time, that could reach MAYBE over 10. Regardless, you would then have to complete Seperate Ways which could take anywhere from 3-6 hours and THEN complete Professional mode afterwards. I mainly played the Gamecube version and as I remember, Professional Mode was unlocked AFTER completing the game normally. I don't remember from the Wii version nor have I played the PS2 version (I owned the PC but never played it), so maybe they might have changed it to where Professional is available from the getgo. But for an easier time, it's recommended to take this path. -IMPORTANT: Before the end of Chapter 1-3 you will encounter large open area outside of a massive lake, there is a nearby typewriter that you should use to save immediately. Head towards the dock but don't get on the boat, instead face the water and shoot at it 5-7 times...trust me, doing this will unlock the "Don't Shoot the Water" achievement which is missable if you just continue on without doing this. By the way, you're going to reload that save afterwards..you'll see why. -Play through the main game, unlocking the 8 story achievements and try to knock out the "What Are They Worth?" achievement in this run. -Play through Seperate Ways to unlock "S is for STYLISH!!" and obtain Ashley's Suit of Armor -Play through Professional with Ashley in the suit of armor. Reasons that this is beneficial: 1.)Ashley is immune to all damage. There are VERY few ways to actually kill Ashley while she is in the armor and all of these are through exploits of in game sequences. I believe one of these is leaving her to be killed by the moving drill machine in Chapter 3 or 4 (I can't recall which)...but I may be wrong, it is possible she might actually just be pushed forward by the machine (like physically through the gate). Anyways, no enemy can hurt her and that's what counts in Professional. This includes El Gigante that attempt to pick her up and squeeze the life out of her, no damage will befall her (correct me if I'm wrong, of course). 2.)The suit of armor that she's wearing is EXTREMELY heavy. One of the main problems in the main game is when Ganados constantly try to carry her off, well this isn't possible anymore (especially during the sequence where you have to snipe Ganados going after her in the Castle). As soon as any ganado picks her up, they'll fall flat on their ass and drop Ashley immediately. In fact, you can stand back and watch as two Ganados constantly try to pick her up only to fail every time. 3.)You do not have to bother healing her, at all...this means that all health items you have on you can be saved for Leon only. This will help especially considering how few hits it takes to kill Leon in Professeional. In fact, you can virtually ignore her aside from puzzles. No longer do you ahve to hide her from enemies, worry if some are going after her...in fact, she acts as a strategic way to LURE enemies in so you can pick them off with your knife.
