Surviving The Village - S+ Rank PROFESSIONAL Walkthrough - RE4 Remake Chapter 1 

Thanks so much for this, I've tried many guides but this was the only one that got me past that major survival test in the village. It was driving me crazy!

This is going to make my Handcannon run so much smoother. So excited to check this out! Thank you for doing this in depth guide.

Amazing explanation, will for sure be using this on my S+ run!!

Dude, super helpful video and thanks for the positivity and pep talk!

Thank you for this awesome guide. Can’t wait for part 2.

Now i'm in the Castle stage and holy mother of Leon, this is gonna be like the impossible "no-save" challenge.

These are some quality helpful videos! I appreciate a multi skilled gamer able to excel in different genres of games.

Finally ps5 footage of s+ on pro. Usually every other one I see uses infinite ammo.

Excellent idea. Thx!

thank u I survived thanks to the 2 grenades strategy u mentioned. I have hope now to get hand canon

Wanna share if you want to kill/ring thebell without waiting Start the first stealth kill like the vid then Just get grenade in the right house like in the vid (not shotgun) BUT don't throw it yet, run around a bit to get ammo from crates&gather people, climb up he tower but don't move anywhere (or else it collapses), shoot anyone climbing up ladder, ez 10 killed, When chainsawman appears, wait before he starts climbing (meanwhile kill more people climbing), use grenade on hoards of enemy below when he chainsaw is climbing up, go to the collpased floor to get down, Go into shotgun house (push cabinet downstairs first so enemies pile there), get shotgun&grenade, jump out right window and throw grenade on hoard of people piling at the window you pushed the shelf to block 15++ enemies died easily bell rung right away

Been trying to make it through this section but holy heck, always come out no ammo or heals. Tryna get the S+ pro for the accessories then go for the other trophies

When a pitchfork enemy charges, you can shoot them once with a pistol to cancel them and run by

You think we'll get campaign patches on randomness of this game? Like maybe fixed stun value (enemy seem to adapt by your bullet amount) Fixed "default / non agressed" behavior Also maybe fixing hitbox & damage value? I notice enemy deal so much damage even in standard if you have full HP, and gradually deal less as you die

If you complete proffesional mode on s+ do you get the hardcore trophy aswell?

there's actually alot of consistency in the game,(with the exception of a few instances like the ppl that throw TNT in chapter 2 for instance) things play out differently if u make slightly different movements or do things at a slighly different speed. as long as you do the same thing consistently the enemy's will too. iv been practicing speed running the game on a fresh file, with no dlc,or bonus weapons, costume perks or ashley armor. if you need any tips or help let me know and id be happy to lend my insight. if S plus is all you are aiming for dont forget to mention that going back to title screen to reload when you die saves a ton of time. nice of you to help others.

I can't say anything for certain, but I think the ganado climbing on the ladder in the shotgun house can be triggered when you get up the stairs. I have done multiple runs on professional where I have enough time to get all items on the 1st floor and as soon as I get to the 2nd floor the ganado just happens to be almost done climbing but still with enough time to kick them off.

Hey how come there are treasures in spots that aren't in the PC version at least? Like there's no necklace at the beginning and a lot of the overhead gems are like different.. is there like a special extra treasure version or something like that?

If that 1st lady is facing you, thats it from the start, i also attempted it and got to the ladder kicked it down jumped through the window and the lady was waiting for me on the roof. Ive attempted the run about 30 times and its never once gone for me in the villiage where the lady is not facing me the second i turn the corner. So im totally stumped, attempted to go the other way and i get swarmed so fast i cant get to a grenade. No cat ears for me it seems, the worst of it is i thought oh ill buy the 5 tickets and upgrade the Chicago Sweeper straight away, but theres no Merchent until you beat the villiage, so im kinda screwed.

15 Saves is a bit over the to not gonna lie. Gonna need CAPCOM to increase that to least 20 or so. Getting S+ is too difficult man.

just to be clear, the bell goes off for 2 reasons....1) You kill 15 enemies in total, or 2) you last 5 min in the battle whereby the bell goes off anyway....so the best strategy is to kill nobody and just run around for 5 min; this will save you 2 grenades and shotgun shells. You will lose a few minutes of the play time running around, but in the grand scheme of things it doesn't for the S+

I’m so scared to try an s+ run, I’m worried I’ll get to the end and not make it in time

I’m really hoping they tone down the enemies a bit in this difficulty. This is just wayyy too difficult to do. RE7 & RE8 hardest difficulties weren’t nearly this hard. Those were possible but this is beyond those.

Very good.

Idk i just cant seem to get past it

On the beginning of chapter 5 with Ashley ...when i just leave the church ,Ashley get picked up... How do you managed here ...... without the ARMOR of course And i don't have any flash Grenade

It not okay to die because dying like 50 time in chapter 5 where they storm the house, is enough for me to wait for unlock everything key DLC so I can get cat ear, put it on, do professional run S+, and murder the shit outta these tanky, aggressive villagers with unlimited shotgun I beat Elden Ring, I beat every single bosses in that game, no time limit or limit save, you strategy your moves, what best armor and weapons But this require you to hurry up, plan ahead prediction, no strategy at all and shitty weapons Enemies TELEPORT!!! I have encountered teleport Dr. Salvator, manic chainsaw in chapter 1 villages, I was running away, HE IS WAY, WAY FAR AWAY, as I turn to grab the green herb near that gap in the hole for Ashley to get in that house, BOOM, he was right behind me, and stab that motor in my back!!!! I gave up after that because THAT WAS UNFAIR!!!! I came back to try it again, I decided to camp the best spot in that tower, where the floor break, but it won't break if you stand near the ladder. I shot every headshots, then it take 2 or even 4 HEADSHOT TO STUN, THEY FREAKING TANK!!! So I jump down and escape and the bell ran after freaking 5 mins.... This mode is unfair and too stressful, elden ring and dark soul are easier compare to this shit mode

Their all farming still while being infected lol

There's no viable strategy, the game is way too hard on professional, and ennemies have some mad randomness in their behaviors so you can fail any time, i have tried all these stratégies in these videos, it never works that fine, there's always something that go wrong. Finishing thiis under 5h30, Pro S+ requires two things over tactic, strategy or anything, it's skill and luck. It is way too hard for most, only 0,5 % people did achieve S+ wich means 99,5 didn't, didn't try or failed. I'm not gonna inflict that to myself, i beaten professional difficulty to unlock that crap handcannon bullshit so i know, Capcom went over the top this time, i like challenges, but this was painful, too hard to be enjoyed.
