Resident Evil Challenge
(Installed on Ranked Servers)
(First Person + Third Person Over-the-Shoulder variants included)
Resident Evil challenge brings a combat experience heavily inspired by Resident Evil game series to AS:RD.

In this challenge, ammo is scarce, forcing players to make their shots count.
To combat this disadvantage (and until you get your hands on sufficient ammunition and better firearms to defend yourself), your melee combat capabilities are much greater and more complicated than before:

Brand new melee system:
Dealing damage to some swarm types in different ways are able to stagger them with different amounts of force. You are able to deal a much greater amount of melee damage against staggered enemies, as well as creating a pushing force against nearby enemies.

Staggered enemies come with glow indicators used for identifying them.
Staggerable enemies are Drones, Rangers, and Uber Drones.

Overhauled Chainsaw utilities:
(Important tip: Chainsaws should not be used in a traditional way against staggerable enemies for this challenge!)
You will also have access to chainsaws with limited durability. They are able to instantly kill any staggered drones.
Furthermore, switching to a chainsaw right before taking damage from any swarm (including certain projectiles) allows you to PARRY the attack, completely neglecting and deflecting the damage.
Failed parries will put you in an one second cooldown before you can attempt to parry again.

Looting:
Killed swarms have a chance of dropping loot that can assist you in your run. Strategize your approach and make your shots count to make sure you don't run out of ammo too soon.

Other:
All other swarm types remain unchanged, except Shieldbugs and Boomers whose health have been halved.
All parasites are replaced by doubled amount of xenomites.

All marines can hack.

Good luck.

Can you provide an older version?Players reported that this would not happen in the previous version.

I tried multiple times :,(
I just can't figure out what went wrong.

No error logs, no hints from crash dumps, nothing.
I don't know what to do :(

If I figure out something, I will immediately update.

Very fun mod! You have to be very smart / strategic with ammo conservation. Aliens will drop more, and also different weapons / items. Definitely a team-oriented game.
