resident evil 4 ps2 assignment ada

Assignment: Ada

• Edit source
• View history

Assignment: Ada , also known as Ada the Spy in some regions, is a non-canon minigame featured in Resident Evil 4 unlocked after completing the game.

• 2.1 Loadout
• 2.2 Plaga Sample locations
• 3.1 Yellow Herbs

The minigame's plot involves Ada collecting a number of plaga samples as ordered by Albert Wesker (as opposed to collecting the single control plaga sample like in the main game). Ada does so and then reports back to Wesker that the mission was completed. She also states that Krauser was killed despite the implication that he had actually survived.

Although the plot is non-canon, it is interesting to note the ending scene has one of the biggest allusions to Resident Evil 5 in that Albert Wesker talks about "Significant changes in our world".

Gameplay [ ]

Ada wears a unique costume in the minigame which is a military-style uniform as opposed to her red dress as in the main game.

The game begins at the beginning of the island at Wharf A and ends at the Communications tower . The item layout on the map has been reworked for the minigame and pesetas and treasures are not found or used at all. The player must find the five samples of the Las Plagas parasite which are marked on the player's map. The only enemies featured are Ganado militia , Gatling Men , and Jack Krauser as the "boss" in the final area the player must defeat to get the last Plaga Sample.

The minigame is relatively short and is meant to be completed in one play-through as there are no save points during it. Ada starts the game with 6 & 2/4 Bars of health and has a slightly faster movement speed than Leon. The Plaga Samples Ada must collect take up space in the inventory instead of the Keys & Treasures menu.

Loadout [ ]

Ada begins the game with a set loadout with the default size case. In the GameCube, PlayStation 2, and the 2007 PC versions, she doesn't have a knife. In all other releases, she does. There are no other weapons to find besides Hand Grenades and ammo and the Merchant does not appear at all. Ada has the following items and firearms with the following stats;

• Handgun Ammo x30
• TMP Ammo x50
• Rifle Ammo x5
• Hand Grenade
• First Aid Spray
• Scope (semi-auto rifle)

Plaga Sample locations [ ]

Each Plaga Sample takes up 1x2 spaces of inventory. Due to them being mandatory in order to complete the scenario Plaga Samples are the only items in the game that cannot be discarded after putting them in the Attache Case.

Strategy [ ]

• In the GameCube and PlayStation2 versions, Ada has no knife, so try and conserve ammo and, to open multiple crates, line them up and shoot them in one bullet using the Punisher.
• Try to not get carried away with the Punisher's high rate of fire.
• Single-fire the TMP when possible to conserve ammo.
• Using The TMP full-auto is best saved to be used against shielded militia in close range, or multiple enemies, due to its high fire rate and high bullet consumption.
• Ada's melee attacks, Fan Kick and Back Kick, are particularly useful, due to your lack of a knife, and need to conserve ammo.
• Try to avoid Gatling Men whenever possible. They're relatively easy to flank in most presented situations, and not worth wasting ammo over, unless you are in dire need of a First Aid Spray or a Hand Grenade .
• Krauser is really easy to beat if you do this correctly. When he appears, dodge his attacks and run to the door you originally came from. Then equip your sniper rifle. Reenter the room where Krauser is. He will charge at you from the far end of the walkway, using his plaga arm as a shield. Try and snipe his knees before he reaches you. if you do, when he staggers, try and shoot either his head or upper chest. Repeat that until he reaches you. Just before he reaches you, re-enter that door again, reload and re-enter Krauser's room again. He spawns at the very end of the catwalk. Repeat what's above until he's dead. Grenades are more risky, due to their range, but also work well too if you can time it right. Sustained TMP fire at his knees is also effective. On the Wii, Xbox Live and PSN versions, do this same tactic, but try knifing him when he drops to his knee. This is very useful in speed running, as it only takes a few slashes to defeat him.
• Discard the Scope for the Semi-Auto Sniper since it is basically useless, this might help when collecting Plaga Samples since you need them in your Attache Case.
• After the fight with Krauser, no more enemies appear. Anything other than the first four Plaga samples may be discarded to make space in the inventory for the final sample.

Yellow Herbs [ ]

Due to Ada's low health, Yellow Herbs are vital in order to stay alive and take more hits. There are seven in the minigame. Collecting them all raises Ada's max health from 6 & 1/2Bars to 8 1/4 Bars.

Results [ ]

There is no formal results screen displayed at the end of Assignment: Ada . However, a unique credits sequence plays consisting of cutscenes from the main game but with Leon in his Special 1 costume and Ada in her costume from The Mercenaries minigame (The R.P.D uniform and Resident Evil 2 dress respectively).

In the Gamecube version, beating the minigame will unlock the Chicago Typewriter for the main game, in all subsequent releases, however, the weapon unlocks for use in Separate Ways instead.

Assignment Ada , also known as Ada the Spy in some regions, is a short mission that is unlocked after completing the game once. In this game, Ada Wong must infiltrate the Island Base and recover 5 Plaga Samples. The samples must fit into her small Attache Case along with her Punisher, TMP, and Semi-Auto Rifle, so item management is a must. The game must be beaten in one complete run, as there is no saving. In all versions prior to the Wii version, Ada has no Knife, so the difficulty is even greater. She must fire bullets to break crates and barrels to obtain items so, do not worry about killing every single enemy and proceed to the next area as soon as possible.

• 1 Storming the Beach
• 2 Inside the Base
• 3 The Lone Guard
• 4 Chicago Typewriter

Storming the Beach [ edit ]

When infiltrating the beach area, be careful about shooting enemies of edges into the water, or else you may run short on ammo. After all the enemies are dead, collect the items around the area. Climb the ladder at the rear entrance and crawl through the vent duct to get inside the Base.

Inside the Base [ edit ]

Once inside check your in-game map. The locations of the Plaga Samples are marked with treasure icons on the map. Find them and kill the enemies guarding them. In the Research Lab, collect the Plaga Sample and then defend yourself from the enemies that lock-down the room. To get out, operate the security console to unlock the door.

The Lone Guard [ edit ]

At the Communications Tower you will have to defeat Krauser to obtain the final Plaga Sample. Use your remaining Hand Grenades and the TMP to defeat him. Once he's taken care of ride the lift to the top of the Tower and call a Chopper to pick up Ada.

Chicago Typewriter [ edit ]

Completing the mission allows you to purchase the Chicago Typewriter , a Tommy Gun with unlimited ammo, in a completed file of the main game (GameCube) or Separate Ways (all other versions). The gun does come with a high price at 1 million Pesetas to be exact in the main game and 300,000 in Separate Ways.

Resident Evil 4 Remake Makes Separate Ways More Than Just PS2 Port Filler

Ada Wong serves and slaughters in equal measure.

My first foray into Resident Evil 4 was on the PS2 . I never touched the GameCube release that Capcom made irrelevant by announcing a port to a better platform before we even got a chance to play it. The exclusivity meant nothing, so for a lot of gamers, the wait for a version on Sony’s beloved second-generation console was more than worth it. I joined the ranks, and remember pinching a copy of the survival horror classic from my brother at the ripe age of 11 before promptly playing it to undeath. Even today, it remains a masterpiece.

It gave me nightmares, I still remember thinking about the hostile screeches of the Ganados and rustling winds outside my bedroom window, convinced that something awaited in the woods beyond. For context, I lived in a field in the middle of Wales which could double as the set for the Blair Witch Project, so it couldn’t get much spookier. But every fright was complemented by memorable characters and bombastic action set pieces that still impress, and as a closeted child who would grow up to not only be a girl, but like them too, Ada Wong hit different.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Preview - Shinra’s Sophomore Slump

The suave secret operative in a flowing red dress kicks ass and takes names, but we weren’t given a chance to play as her until the PS2 port. Even then, both of her smaller campaigns were made up of reworked environments and boss encounters designed around continuous waves of enemies instead of something more compelling. Assignment Ada is the shortest and least memorable of the two additional campaigns, which feels more like a fancy minigame than anything else.

Clad in spy attire, Ada is tasked with navigating the island from later on in the main game to acquire a number of Los Plagas samples before delivering them to her employer. The plot is technically non-canon, but words from Wesker in its final scenes do allude to the narrative of Resident Evil 5 in some ways. Assignment Ada is a fairly forgettable slice of action that not many of us talk about today, and I doubt it will surface in remade form like Separate Ways did. If it does, I hope it receives the same prestigious treatment.

Separate Ways was a different kettle of fish entirely, and back on the PS2, it aimed to explore the events of Resident Evil 4 from Ada’s perspective. We saved Leon from the evil clutches of Mendez, found the infected who stole his jacket, and embarked on a few other escapades that sought to explore more of her character. Consisting of five chapters and appearances by the likes of Leon, Luis, Krauser, Wesker, and Salazar, it’s a fairly robust mini-campaign which to most, would justify either the first or second purchase of the survival horror classic.

Still, it was clearly operating with near identical assets and ideas from the original, so much so that I could see Ada being a skin with little distinction if I broke it all down. The remake goes way harder, weaving Ada’s journey into the events of the main game and giving her a meaningful arc of her own with greater moral duplicity. She is her own character now, building on her appearance in the Resi 2 remake with a willingness to betray her superiors if it means doing the right thing.

From early on in the campaign, we witness new interactions between Luis and Ada, along with frequent radio communication with Wesker that paints him as a far more sinister and less comical villain than past depictions. Ada is also infected this time around, battling with what appears to be a constantly evolving spectre that morphs the landscape and acts as a returning boss battle throughout. I’m yet to reach the end, but an omnipresent threat like this makes the mixture of new and returning environments feel that much fresher. You also have weapons not found in the main game, distinct puzzles, and upgrade paths to uncover. It’s not a bonus that Leon’s adventure can live without, but the last piece needed to complete the story.

I’d recommend Separate Ways not just to Resident Evil fans after a neat paid bonus, but also newcomers and those who want all the possible context ahead of where Resident Evil goes next. It will no doubt tie in these interpretations of Leon and Ada into either more remakes or entirely new entries that take the canon to incredible places. There’s no way to know just yet, but this mystery only makes such a complementary expansion all the more exciting. Now I can’t wait to finish it before running through it again and again.

Originally posted by The Who : I am pretty sure something akin to Separate Ways is under works, and it will probably be sold off together with the game again as Gold version later on like they did with RE:Village. Hirabayashi outdid himself with how good and detailed everything is in this remake though, so I'll forgive them. lol ...Now, I just hope they can also maintain the horror focus for Separate Ways. RE6's Ada left a bad taste in my mouth with how too badass they're trying to present her. I play this game to get scared, not to feel like a superspy throwing one-liners at every enemy and situation.

Originally posted by Pääpeelsepuuppi : Originally posted by Shao : Separate Ways didn't exist before the PS2 release, so it is technically DLC even the years before so whine all you want.

Originally posted by Shao : Originally posted by Pääpeelsepuuppi : Well that's a bit of a silly statement statement. it was not "technically DLC". "Technically" there was no "Downloadable Content" on that generation of consoles to begin with.

Originally posted by Pääpeelsepuuppi : Originally posted by Shao : There was, the Xbox has DLC content during that generation.

Originally posted by Shao : Originally posted by Pääpeelsepuuppi : Fair point, it actually might have. Wasn't the xbox the first console with it's own HDD? And I think PS2 also had an HDD expansion, which might have allowed some games to have content updates and DLC. however. When it comes to most games. "DLC" wasn't a thing and it's a bit silly how all extra content is now called DLC.

Originally posted by Burn Paw : Originally posted by Shao : Well let's be fair to the devs, the quality of production has increased in cost as things get better. Back then games had much less to go wrong with, the limitations were apparent, nowadays you can pretty much give life to anything in a game if you have the manpower and talent that it demands. I can stand behind the idea of making content DLC so long as it's not expensive to the point of being considered extortion like how Activision does it. Capcom if anything have been the upmost respectful in term of DLC content that isn't just cosmetics or just PC gaming in general by even providing a Demo which is extremely rare nowadays. I'd rather have the game released early if it's technically completed and if I'm satisfied then communicate with my wallet that I enjoy the content they released.

Originally posted by Krelgarsh : Besides of mercenaries, do you think these modes comes as dlc in the future ?
