| *Sound Of Rain said: I don't understand the big problem...Someone explain it to me. Don't games always let you play it again without resetting anyway once you beat it? For example, like with Resident Evil 3...once you beat it, it says that you beat the game once but you can continue to play it without erasing anything correct? The only issue I can see with this is that if your really stuck and it would be easier to just start over then to continue on...you wouldn't be able to start over until you beat it...but if you can't your screwed.(Running out of ammo for example) This is Mercenaries though and not a story lined game...you just shoot the mess out of zombies to get high scores and play with people Online...so whats the problem? |
The problem comes in when you have something like two siblings sharing the game (not uncommon), you want to rent the game, or you buy it used. The game is made so only one save can ever exist and only that save can ever exist. If you're playing with a brother or sister, you have to share the save and only one person ever gets to unlock a given thing. If you're renting or buying used, then you should give up any hope at actually unlocking something.
Even playing online, you're at the mercy of whatever previous person already unlocked for you. Hopefully they've gone down the same progression path you might have gone down, otherwise, you're stuck with powerups you don't care about.
