Finally accomplished my childhood goal. This is my favorite RE game, and used to be my overall favorite game.

This game is rough. I remember looking up guides on gamefaqs as a kid to try to get the A rank on this. I had the method down pretty good for the first half, up until the dreaded plane fight. However, the real challenge comes from the second half of the game. There are several moments at the end of the game that are just straight up bs oneshot and you die, making you lose hours of progress on a run like this. First is cracking the Crystal for a keycard. You can instantly die if you’re not careful. Second is the axe man, don’t have healing items? Too bad. This guy can kill you while you’re in yellow. Finally, right after those two oneshot events, you get a boss fight who can oneshot you if she gets too close. Once you get past those three, it’s smooth sailing, but honestly there’s only like 10-15 minutes left of the game after that. I truly have the utmost respect for anyone else who has sought this specific game’s A rank.
ID: hvfhvsbID: hvdc6vnThe most far away i have back tracked in this franchise was remake and zero, I've played every resident evil ever until that point
I tried code Veronica and holy shit... What a misereable experience, those games haven aged well at all to me, i will never manage to finish OG 2, 3 and code Veronica.
Suzy the sphere hunter has a really good video about this game, the plane fight with tyrant, the cristal ball puzzle and the steve mutated fight can literally end whole playthroughs right away
ID: hvdi94mI remember renting CV when I was 12. I had no memory card, but I made it to the tyrant plane fight and died. I returned the game.
ID: hvgo9imJust watched her video on CV because of your comment, and I have to say I agree pretty strongly with all of her criticisms of the game. The character swapping in particular and screwing yourself out of items, and cheap instadeaths is extremely bad game design. That said, it is the game that first allowed for quick retry. I might watch her other videos some day since she makes some very good points but they are pretty long videos.
ID: hve2ggiEspecially OG2 is probably the easiest RE game out there. 3 is also not that hard except Clock Tower Nemesis boss fight and the second Gravedigger boss fight. Code Veronica is way harder than original trilogy. (Still not that hard though)
ID: hveublpSeriously, am I just bad or is there legitimately no way to avoid taking damage during the Steve segment.
I just run and munch herbs.
ID: hvdv00eThere’s a speedrun strat for doing Steve chase with no damage but well, you would need a save state just to practice it. Even then it’s still quite risky.
ID: hve30pwYeah I heard you can get by him by like running around him in circles clues first but just having a couple healing items is much safer. I’m not trying to beat any world records or anything like that, just wanted the rocket launcher. Also, I’m playing on PS4 so no savestates.

What's your overall favorite game now and why did it take the crown?
ID: hve3actHonestly several games have surpassed Code Veronica over the last 20 years. Currently The Last Of Us 2 has the throne. Game gets a ton of flak but honestly I’ve never played such an amazing experience through and through.
ID: hvev7wuTlou2 :/ you need to play more games my friend
-
Excellent, nice work on the A rank! The pile of insta-kill moments towards the end of the game make it hella tense lol
-
It's a fantastic game. I am currently playing through the whole series in order and after platinuming Code Veronica on PS4 I actually instantly replayed it and got all trophies on PS3 as well. It's my kinda thing - inventory management, puzzles and lots of backtracking. Super cheesy dialogue, but somehow or perhaps even thanks to that the game has that old Resident Evil creepy vibe. As a contrast I am playing through RE5 Desperate Escape DLC right now. Perhaps the worst RE scenario I played so far. I don't care about all the stupid action, man. Give me my puzzles and slow burning horror.
-
WOW, that is truly amazing TBH. I played CV late last year, I think it took me 15 hours.... Well done
ID: hvdvxndCV is a game I started and stopped a ton of times because it never grabbed my attention or it got too hard. Last summer I decided to play every resident evil in chronological order and I think it took me around the same time to beat too. Still one of the tougher RE titles today, shame it’s so silly, but I think that’s what gives it its charm.
-
I’m playing it now for the first time in years and I am just screwing myself left and right. I’m at the end but I kind of want to play through it again already.

"Look at your 10, Claire. He's hot. He can continue the bloo--"
"OMG Chris wtf, no! Haha!"
ID: hvfezqpThis result screen always seemed a bit off to me.. This does not look like a sibling relationship
-
Cool
-
I’m proud of you bro!!
-
Good job and I'm glad you liked the game so much.
-
Code Veronica! ❤
An absolute masterpiece. Definitely my favorite! Congratulations for getting A-rank!
-
Nice! Just beat this game for the first time recently.
I got an E...and that's with infinity herb lol.
ID: hvgmpxoI just found out about this glitch after I finished the run actually, I think it’s a super cool glitch but the game honestly gives you enough healing items. Really for A ranking it just depends on not saving, not using retries, not using first aid sprays, and doing it quickly. Once you learn what key items go where and have a good memory of what enemies spawn where and how to run past them it’s not too hard. Just takes some practice.
-
Niiiiiiice ZERO SAVES!!!! Well done!
ID: hvgmzpxYou get one free save after the plane fight. I definitely used that save lol. The game doesn’t count it though, it still says save 00 Starting part 2.
ID: hvgpywyStill, either way, well done. Not something I'll be tackling anytime soon lol I'm stuck on the RE3 Remake atm.
-
I don't think I ever noticed the old couple behind Chris. The Redfields are not done killing monsters I guess.
-
This was the only reason I boight the Dreamcast! Remake them shits!!!
-
If they remake CVX, I want it original af, with fix camera
-
I'm glad you and many others enjoy it. I personally hated my 1st playthrough and just haven't revisited the game. Same with re0
ID: hvdw3ngI’m with you there with both titles. They’re not my favorites, particularly CV tho seeing that fan remake from ROE looks preeetty sweet.
ID: hvdwcouOh yeah it's nothing with like the story or even setting that I have an issue with just gameplay. If CVX is made RE engine I'll hop on that right away. I'd love it actually
-
Congrats! Soft-save runs stress me out and I tend to crack under the pressure, always getting hung up on some tricky part later in the game.
I've screamed in a rage so many times trying to kill that mutant-lion looking form of Birkin near the end of Leon's run. If he nicked you sometimes you'd just get snagged and he'd deal damage like every frame!
Last time I played CV Steve must've killed me like 10 times before I did it right. I can only imagine how many runs he'd destroy without being able to practice.
-
Congrats on beating it. I absolutely love CVX it’s one of my favorites in the series
-
i once heard a rumor that the lady in the background with the blue dress is actually jill looking for chris
-
Definitely one of the harder re games
-
Nice job! Just finished this for the first time myself a few days back, and it's excellent. The A rank wasn't too rough for me but the conditions are unforgiving. Bravo!
-
Pisses all over 4,5,6,7,8
ID: hvgndjhHard disagree. CV is my favorite, followed by 2 remake, but 4, 7, and 8 are fantastic games as well, and 5 and 6 are still good, heavily flawed games.
ID: hvh3o8xYou don't have to hard disagree. Just disagree. You use 'hard' there and makes me feel like there's oceans between us. 🙁
