I love how Luis uses the pipe for his melee. He finally got to use his “lance” from the story.
Don quijote.
He really is Don Quixote!
He’s a great knight.
That move is disgustingly good with its reach
Not just that, it's the most Capcom thing he can do... Final Fight, anyone?
I love that hunk after snapping someone’s neck is like “TADAAAAA, HES DEAD!”
Other villains: Who the fuck are you?
Hunk: Wanna see a magic trick?
Thank you , now i have this picture of hunk between missions being this calm and faceless killer and on missions he is doing every stupid thing what comes to his mind 🤣
It is great that they made his execution slow, now there is no reason to use it.
@@Wr41thgu4rd Instant kill on bosses.
@@livingcorpse5664 "WANNA SEE A MAGIC TRICK?"
*Shakes Head Rapidly*
"GOOD. ABRAKEDABRA!"
*NECK SNAP*
I'd like to imagine hunk wiggling his fingers going "NYEHEHEHE"
Papyrus approves
YOU LIKE JAZZZZZ
The mod fornthis game are going to be so much fun
HUNK after every neck snap: TA-DA!
"Oopsie~"
Fun Fact: Luis is impervious to his own dynamite. So you can get crowded, set it down at your feet, and shoot.
Fun Fact: Max literally says this in the video idiot.
they told max after the first luis match.
@@vanconojl No shit Sherlock
well TIL my first try ended cuz I got chainsawed trying to run from my own dynamite
And it gives him invincible frames
Leon's Mayhem mode: Fast attack and speed.
Luis' Mayhem: Dynamite for everyone.
Krauser's: Mutated arms!
HUNK: Mr. Death's neck snapping party.
i think leon's mayhem mode is a little nod towards the Ditman glitch in the OG RE4
@@BeannJuice nah, the ditman glitch is nodded at via a striker shotgun charm you can get in the firing range place
Krauser is an absolute monster. You can literally do a whole run just with the Knife. I just love how they really made the Knife such an important and destructive tool. As it should be. Its a freaking military grade knife.
And his flip and dodge is so cool combined witht that
I really wish you could leap across the map like Krauser does in the story
You can straight up cancel out of attacks to dodge and do some dope combos. Krauser is amazing lol
Oh no, Krauser's knife is WAYY better than military grade. Military grade isn't the bestm Krauser grade is
@@jamesmonroe1538 I actually bought his knife a few years ago, the type of knife he has is called a Mercworx Equatorian.
Chat: Krauser has a strong knife
Max: I sleep
Chat: He can wave dash
Max: *REAL SHIT?!*
To be fair, the wave dash is way cooler
How do you do it tho?
@@geeguy7429 "Holding LB he can dash in and out of fights"36:29
Krauser been with the Mishimas to learn their Wave dashes
@@geeguy7429 hold lb and attack. He can only dash in once per animation cancel though
The moment Hunk goes Mayhem 57:02 some dude on the rail tried to escape by helicoptering out.
Just like the OG, the game occasionally breaks in the most hilarious ways.

Needs one more timestamp: 1:47:14 for the most wholesome moment in the stream.
kool i mean cool
After all these years and just how little infos we know about him, HUNK is still the coolest and badass character in RE universe.
Thats one of the things that makes him so cool, his misterious aura. If they gave us more info on him that would be lost. It's very fitting for someone nicknamed "Mr.Death"
His RE2 remake theme is a fucking banger for tense mission type scenarios
@@alastor8780 It’s my favorite track in the entire remake series, I played sooo much 4th survivor in RE2make. That and Ghost Survivors was such a great value add. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that The Forgotten Soldier track is my other favorite, both tracks are cooler because of the crazy badasses they’re attached to.
@@spiraljumper74
I love how his RE4R Merc theme is a combo of his Original and Remake RE2 themes
@@alexferrier5732 True true. And fans been asking for his stand alone game for years I just don't know if we should get it or not though.
Oh and he is also nick named "Grim Reaper" which is adds about his badassery and mysterious nature.
1:18:36 That's Hunk's PS1 RE2 4th survivor music, really nice throwback. He was my favourite in the original, though Wesker was pretty cool.
I thoughz it was a remix of Re2r 4th survivor?
It’s both
@@avocadothecat that's in there too, I also noticed the cool miniboss theme is the original RE4 mercenaries music mixed with a new part
Wesker was my favorite in RE4 and RE5 Mercs, I just loved his thrust punch and overhead axe kick/stomp. Hunk was my second favorite for the neckbreaker, it was so satisfying on the chainsaw enemies.
Hunk: **snaps necks** TA-DA~!
Magic trick.
They need to let you play as Ashley and she has a fully upgraded magnum but can't handle the recoil so you basically one shot and stagger most enemies but she need to recover from every shot lmao.
Her Mayhem would give her magnum some piercing
Her mayhem is where she yells for Leon and Leon comes in with an infinite rpg and kills the entire map of 150 enemies winning you the game.
She also better be able to do a sick suplex but only under specific conditions like the glitch on the original GameCube
Jokes aside, they could take a page from how Rebecca played in RE5 Mercs. A bit of Rebecca with a bit of Lady D. where she pulls furniture out of nowhere to chuck at people (ala OG RE4).
It sends her flying back 10 metres each shot
Mayhem would be wrecking ball Ashley, Destroyer of Worlds (and walls).
Look man if someone snapped my neck and did jazz hands afterwards I wouldn't even be mad.
Same. Terminator 2 thumbs up as you fall.
Nah that's more like spirit fingers😅
YEAH
YOU WOULD BE DEAD 😂
Leon is out here playing a survival horror game while Krauser is in a character action
He's got Arnold body and hair, but Stallone's weapons...
I'd say that's an apt description.
Re 4 remakes mercenaries mode in a nutshell:
Leon is an appetizer
Luis is the hard hitting drink
Krauser is the main course like a good stake or burger
And hunk is the simple yet delicious dessert like a cake or ice cream
You really love food don't you?
Yep
Krauser: that’s not a knife, this is a knife
Max: Luis is actually pretty fun.
Me: Wait till you see Krauser buddy
I imagine Hunk saying *"TA DA"* after every neck break like Joker after his magic trick.
I have no doubt that ada and wesker will become playable with the inevitable separate ways dlc
Datamines show they are actually already in the files that came with the mercs update.
@@iMakeTheSpackle Was about to say something like this, think I saw something of it being leaked.
@@foodwich2132 iirc the leak was a 4th map, pinstripe leon, ada, classic dress ada, and wesker.
yes please~
Ada and Wesker theme is already leaked and Ada's theme is a remix of her original theme from RE2 OG.
Luis is arguably the strongest one here, his mayhem mode allows him to place an infinite amount of dynamite that he can't even get hurt from!
not only that, his melee is also ironically strong, the pipe has a 180°+ range and his rush melee can clear out a large amount of enemies.
Yeah People just gotta get good with the character, thats all
You could say the same about HUNK or Krauser. Both dudes absolutely shred
Completely agree, Luis is trully strong. It's like day and night when you discover he's immune to his own dynamite so you just plant it at shoot at your feet, and that on top of the s and the stagger he causes each time.
I feel like they're all OP except Leon, and even he's a vast improvement to how he was in the original Mercenaries
I’m pretty sure you can only place one at a time as in you must wait for the previous to explode.
Fingers crossed a few more characters for mercs in future dlc. This is gold in terms of fun.
Ada and Wesker are coming. I think there was some data mining that showcased room for 8 characters. So other than those 2, we'll probably getting 2 more. Could be an alternate Leon among them, or maybe a classic RE character that isn't in RE4 (Jill, Claire, Chris, etc).
@@thenonexistinghero Chris just gets a giant Boulder and throws it at the villager Claire uses her cowboy style magnum's Jill unleashes her re5 abilities temporarily enhancing her movement and durabilty
@@thenonexistinghero A smug-ass wesker in 4 remake levels of graphics and broken gameplay? I'm sold 😁
@@juanpagan7944 ngl i wanna see Leon and Krauser fight Chris and Wesker.
@@TheEphemeralEternity thatd be an intresting fight i realky hope weskers dodge tyrns into a teleport and his mayhem mode he loses his ability to use his weapon but he counters everything automatically and deals 2 times damage with melee and for adas i hope we get to use her grappling hook as her get away tool when cornered as a mayhem ability
If Krauser is this wild in melee, I can only imagine how crazy Wesker will be when he comes out.
He just need 7 minutes to clear all the stages.
@@garudanathanael5257 all he can spare after all
He is quite fun
He’s so fun
a
Hunk: Hey...wanna see a magic trick?
If Hunk ever gets his own game its a day 1 for me.
It makes me happy to see Luis getting to use his Lance.
This game is absolutely incredible. I was never big on Mercenaries, with Village being the one’s I played the most (maybe that was my problem), so I wasn’t expecting much but I was 2 minutes into my first game of RE4R Mercs and I started laughing to myself like a crazy person because of how much fun I was having. I was totally shocked.
The mechanics and enemies in this game are timeless. Very hard to improve on this gameplay when you've been seasoned from the main mode.
it sucks because it (mercs) has almost no replay value. they should make it into a rogue-lite with unlockable permanent upgrades etc and a fantastic progression system
I was never really big on Mercenaries either, but this one is fun.
@@celzolsen8988 What? 😂 you’re on your own there
@@brennanbarber7469 what is left to do in merc after getting s++ with each char?
Krauser's knife is so good, if you time it right, you can parry each arrow the machine arrow pig guy fires.
Capcom always know how to make a good arcade game.
Krauser just turns the game into a hack n slash and I'm loving it.
Hunk: "My favorite SCP is 173."
Ganado: "Why's that?"
Hunk: *Snap*
"Stupid ass game is so much fun" ─ Maximilian Dood, should be a sticker in the cover of the game.
I like how everyone else is playing Mercenaries, but Krauser is all TEKKEN in your face
I gotta say man, I usually tune out with other people's walkthroughs and gameplays. But you somehow make me want to watch your re4 footage from start to finish. You're the only person I don't get bored watching
I haven’t played mercenaries in the original, but this was pretty fun. It’s kind of nice that you can get high scores without any problems. Also, you can get the hand cannon by getting S rank on all three stages.
Ruined the appeal of mercenaries, they made it so easy it sucked all the fun right out of it. There was no reason I should not have gotten an S++ first run without knowing the map, item, or enemy layout.
@@Wr41thgu4rd true i hope there is a harder mode coming where it's much harder to achieve S rank
@@GameHopperME A No Mercy mode has been found in the files
The OG you had to 5 star each stage with each character... So, a minimum of 20 runs.
And as someone who personally didn't like Mercenaries mode, it can be a slog.
That said, it's not bad, just... it can be a tad unforgiving.
@@shelbyherring92 It's a challenge mode. Capcom didn't want to present players with the Hand Canon until they had proven they mastered the game's mechanics. I respect that.
Hunk is officially the doomguy of resident evil series.
so krauser vergil,dante or something
For anyone who needs some tips for high score: remember that enemies with mutated Plaga (The ones who's heads explode and a tentacle creature comes out) die instantly to flash grenades. This also applies to the spider Plaga on the Island map. Also, Luis doesn't take damage from his dynamite, so you can throw em down and shoot them if you're in a horde and need some space.
the ragdoll spinning at 57:02 lmao
I cant be the only one imaginings Krauser wave dashing like a Mishima because he can in the game 👀
I was just checking the playlist and seen this new video 😮 so excited to watch it
Luis immune to his dynamite explosion btw
I love that not just in mercenaries but the entire game they balanced difficulty REALLY well. I feel adequately challenged even on standard. And on mercenaries it feels like enough of a challenge for me but not being as punishing as the original re4s mercenaries could be. Like I've had a couple times where I'm like yeah this is going super smooth I'm gonna kill all 150 and then I just get chainsawed in the back or grabbed from behind and then chainsawed. I just feel like this might be the most perfectly balanced difficulty I've ever seen in a video game and that goes for both main game and mercenaries.
In today's video, Max demonstrates how to reduce the strain on the national budget by trimming down the pension spending. Goddamn genius. This remake is truly incredible.
Hunk: Chiropractor mode enabled.
Been waiting for this. Thank you Max 👍💯
Krauser is the easiest character to die on in my experience because he's so unga bunga that I forget I have a health bar.
In the 2005 version he indeed could die easier because he dropped into critical mode (slower movement) sooner than other characters when losing health
@@sapateirovalentin348 Oh, yeah... Well, I guess they had to balance his bow and big claw...
@@shelbyherring92 i am not sure though so take it with a grain of salt
Would love another kind of coop survival in this game. Players pick the characters and can buy from the merchant while surviving waves.
Yooo
Mercenaries should have it's own spin-off game. Maps and characters from every entry in the series.
meanwhile capcom be like "REsistance"
Yo I've been saying this! Every character, every stage, and add a co-op and versus mode just for the shits
There's Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, if that counts
Naw just add multiplayer. If they added a 4 player co op that would be crazy.
@@nullaccount1999 Yeah Mercenaries 3D is great, but it's too small. We need a console game
"Guess there's no keeping down the Grim Reaper, huh?"
Damn literally just got done watching your entire play through a resident evil 4 about 30 minutes ago and this drops right after. You're talking about good timing
This dude is legitimately fun to watch. I have subbed good sir
0:03 HunK: For my next trick, I'll make a life disappear... 0:05 Hunk: TADAAAAH!
In my mind, once the neck snaps the person in his hands become a 'thing' to discard and no longer part of the mission, that's how I see his animation
I love how every character has their own music.
17:55 Luis is praying for the sht that's going to happen XD
57:05 the dude spinning in the air, Hunk's too much for them lmao.
Near the end of this video, Max displayed some serious journalism gameplay skills haha
I’m so glad you love the spooky fingers hunk does as much as I do, I laughed so hard when I saw that the first time, and said spooky the exact same way as you did then 😂
Mercenaries is incredibly good and addicting. It does have RNG bs with enemy AI sometimes though. I got a combo of 148 on the Island to have the last 2 enemies nowhere near me. They only showed themselves after my combo dropped which felt bad and out of my control.
Some of the enemy combos can be infuriating time-wasters as well. I’ve quickly found the Molotov throwers to be the biggest threat in Mercenaries since you can lose seconds in the burning animation and they can drop fire on you while you’re mid-animation for executions or escaping a grab.
Some quick tips:
-Melee grants big time bonuses but it really breaks even for certain longer animations since the clock doesn’t stop while you’re using melee. Melee on Luis and Hunk can be a bad call sometimes vs Leon and Krauser which is pretty much always a good idea.
-I personally drop the TMP for Krauser at the start. It’s weak, inaccurate, and eats up potential arrow space. His knife and bow are better options 90% of the time. I like Krauser but I find keeping a combo to be the most difficult for him. Since he’s melee-focused, the odds of an offscreen enemy grabbing you and wasting time skyrockets and his only fast-kill options are the slow bow, grenades, and his Mayhem.
-Luis is immune to his own dynamite and shooting it makes it explode. You can easily drop 4-5 sticks per Mayhem if you’re quick but sometimes it’s smarter to let enemies group up around the dynamite first.
-For every character you can use Mayhem as a panic button. Triggering it causes an AoE of stagger regardless of the enemy type. Luis has a smaller AoE for every subsequent dynamite he places but it can still be used to stagger a boss out of an animation.
Only utility I've seen for Krauser's TMP is shooting the head and knees quickly for melee kills. It's not meant at all for killing on its own since it has level 1 stats if you inspect it, it's just supposed to set up melee kills at close range. Also good for picking off crossbow or other projectile enemies, you just gotta make sure it's fully loaded since it'll usually take a full mag to kill reliably. Overall I'd say he gives HUNK a run for his money as the strongest character, his only real weakness is ranged threats.
One time on island i got to 149 enemies and sprnt my remaining 2 minutes trying to find him but couldnt, not sure if it bugged or what
I remember grinding Leons dock stage on the OG, with the super salvadors. Cheesing them with grenades and I-frames on ladders while keeping the combo going. Was my final stage for the handcannon too iirc.I really hope it's still there 😄
oh yeah, that made the knife broken in the OG water world mercenaries
I can't wait to see Max playing the story on proffesional mode. I know how much he likes to stick to the most basic weapons and upgrade them to the top but I really hope he tries the handcannon, it's so much fun and a lifesaver with the hardest bosses... And let's not forget the golden egg against Salazar
Krauser has some sick combos. I got an S ranking just using his knife attacks. They def had people from their fighting game division working on the combat in this game lol
Awesome video! The RE4 remake has some parts that are faithful to the original while others are new, and in my latest action-packed episode of the original Resident Evil 4 series on mobile, I faced off against the formidable Mendez boss. Keep up the fantastic work!
I’m hooked! Mercenaries is so much fun.
I do wish Hunk had a second animation for the neck snap. It's kinda weird to melee a guy from behind, suddenly appear in front of him, then move behind him and do the neck snap
A little bit picky aren't we.
@@thirteen8582 Uh not really. I just think there should be a second animation of Hunk doing the neck snap from behind.
@@wildbard4112 Fair enough
Every other "nothing personnel" guy teleports behind you, but Hunk teleports in front of you! Now that's magic! >:P
hunk have 2 more melle animation,but only if you shoot enemy on leg
Hunk snaps neck: jazz hands
I absolutely loved that I heard bits of RE2R Hunk theme in his mercenary mode theme
It also has his theme from OG 2 mixed in
Always hit em with the jazz hands after snapping someone’s neck
The K in HUNK stands for Khiropractor
Thing about the Handcannon though, the way to unlock it [and achievement attached], is to beat the game on Professional without any bonus weapons. Now I know what people might think "Oh! Just do it on New Game Plus", but you can't do that. Specifically says New Game. Everything else that says "beat the story on [difficulty]" can be done in a second playthrough on a completed file. So to give two ways of getting the Handcannon, while I believe there should be more than just that for a reward (Like maybe Leons RPD outfit or able to give Leon HUNKs outfit for example), would have been nice too.
Luis is actually really strong on the village map, you can basically camp the whole time in that corner by the broken shack and clear the whole ramp with his mayhem mode. If you save it for bosses S++ is a breeze with him.
1:03:24 MAX AS OF 4/12/2023 the completion rate of RE4R on PS4
1. *STANDARD MODE IS ONLY 41.6%* 💪🏽
2. *HARDCORE MODE IS ONLY 19.1%* 💪🏽
3. *PROFESSIONAL MODE IS ONLY AT 11.9%*
6:31 this Arnold battlecry from the Predator cracked me up 😂
Watching Krauser in this really makes me want a spin-off RE game with him as the playable. Leon and Krauser co-op RE5 style spec ops game
There's an on-rails shooter with him and Leon
@@Asterail I know, I've played the all. 😉. I want something a little more hands on.
Max you’re getting jacked! I see you 💪🏽
Mercenaries is so freakin fun man I love Hunk so much. Hopefully Ada, Wesker and a few more stages get added too. Also, where is my RPD outfit for Leon Capcom…
The cop part of Leon died, he said so himself, so no RPD outfit lol
Ada, Wesker, and one new map were datamined a little before the mercenaries update. As for the RPD uniform nothing yet unfortunately. Also I respect the Ardyn pfp.
I just hope we could use all the merc characters through the main story. Especially krauser!
@@kosaku_kq5601 I've heard there's also a "Leon B" and "Ada B", which is Leon and Ada in different outfits and with a different loadout. The outfits are pinstripe and red dress but I don't know what the loadouts are.
We need a Zombie game with Character Creation Like Dragons Dogma 2 But with ONLY Zombies and Mutated Zombie Animals.
build your own base, find survivors, make a Town, and so on and so on.
So much fun, they did such a good job with this remake
Kinda like wesker in RE5 he was my favorite to play in mercenaries
57:05 look at that dude spin roun n round the rail. 😂
I was obsessed with mercenaries on the original Re4. Glad this one is also very cool
I'm loving this video merc was so addictive to me when I played og re4 I have it on my ds too but got a little rusty plus I have no use of my left hand anymore so playing us hard I try but u keep messing up ty max for doing this on CZcams so I can watch and enjoy❤
Maximum score:
1. Multi-kills, +1k for every enemy you kill simultaneously.
2. Time bonus, AKA headshots. +1k per second. Melee offers extra time too, though not as much, unless you knife them in the head.
3. Mayhem kills, especially on high multiplier.
Bruh this is so addictive fr been playing this the whole day
I never liked the mercs mode except in RE6, but this is probably my favorite version of it now. I still don't see myself playing often though.
Same, I much prefer the mode where you loot different rarities of guns with different stats. Revelations was the best.
@@nyrva2876 Yeah, the Raid modes in the Rev games where great.
1:08:35 one thing you can do is activate your mayhem mode instantly when grabbed by enemy instead of waiting to do knife retaliation.
I laughed so hard when Max had HUNK go ham with his machine gun while screaming,"AUUUUUUHHHHHGH!!" because it reminded me of his RE2 Leon B original playthrough when he had Leon dump all his submachine gun ammo into Berkin before ending the game XD
Krauser is my favorite in this one he is so tanky, he has dash and best melee 👍
hunk giving them the ol' razzle dazzle
Leon's mayhem mode should've been Chris showing up and boxing all of the ganados to keep the Redfield bloodline continued
Huge compliment @Max. He is obviously a skilled player, but wow... There were moments when his first Leon run looked like a horror version of John Wick. First attempt, immediately got S+. Very impressive.
This game are sick. Mercenaries even more fun than before. Looking forward to Weskin Time
Hunk and Krauser and super OP! But Luis and Leon are really fun too. I played for about 3 hours last night it's definitely addicting.
the crit path seems to be something like- find all the time orbs go out of your way on your attempt to get the harder ones *with more doors and such
then run towards the easier ones while starting your combo meleeing all enemies on your path to the last ones and finishing in a corner where you sit until the end building your combo
eventually they should add the time orbs over time to force map engagement during the trial
I’ll be waiting for the round 2 with Ada & Wesker
After hearing you could unlock the handcannon by S ranking each of the 3 levels I gave it a shot. I would say i'm about average, but S ranking is relatively easy to do with Leon.....honestly I am having trouble getting a A rank on ANY level with Luis to unlock the next character.
Every character is very fun, very different. Can't wait for Ada and Wesker.
Also funny that Village is the "basic" or "easiest" stage but it actually has the most dangerous bosses (scariest for me) in the chainsaw imo.
I felt the same way in the original. Castle is my favorite because it has more time bonuses and I only have to deal with a couple of Garradors
@@mbrillon765 Same for me too. I'm always terrified of Chainsaw or any enemy who can instant kill basically. Not a fan of instant kill at all. 😅😅
I wish they add Ashley! And make her a fun character, with comedic moves. That'd be great!
The necksnap for hunk is glorious and makes me giggle
Mercenaries mode is AMAZING. I was hoping that we’d get one extra map though. But the three we got are pretty fun.
