I'm a Resident Evil 4 mod and we do it like this Submit your score in the "time with loads" for example: a "950650" score will be "9h 5m 0s 650ms"

Hi!, well atm we still working on it, figuring out how to make it the best looking possible and trying keeping the submit format the most we can, it might be can have some changes, but we gonna explain it later once it be ready.

Category we decided that it will have more visibility in main board than being in extension level, so we gonna manage like the extra mode that it is same like LIN/DE dlcs.

So please stay tune for it!.

@LeonSReckon we've thought on that, i was thinking of using IGT for put mercs timer you finish the run (on this mercs score build with time too so maybe ppl will want to share it and show in board), the score column and maybe using LRT column like you said, but maybe we gonna follow that format.

@R0DEATH I have the best idea for you if you set the time for the board to show the highest 1st then if you submit IGT in the IGT column and Submit the score in the LRT column the board would just ignore the IGT because it's not the default timing method for placement so people can still see how much time they got while also being placed by the score not the time I hope I made my point clear but damn I wrote an essay

Hello. Ive been playing mercenaries on RE5 for many years. I am not that active anymore but every now and then I do some runs for banters.

This game has been around for a long time and understandably people have moved on to different games over the years. RE5 obviously is not the best game of the series but its the coop aspect what makes it really stand out from the previous titles and I can objectively say that this game is the best coop RE. It is certainly much better than RE6 and the other spinoffs.

It was a very good decision to ditch the gfwl edition as it is heavily outdated and brings along technical issues. Not to mention the issue with "grandfathering" where especially the pro players keep insisting on playing the significantly inferior version, despite the fact that there's an official steam version released by capcom. No offense and credit to the very talented players but how can you be so NARROW MINDED to stick to an inferior version FOR SO LONG.It is something that I never saw in any other game, the bunch of players need to understand that and adapt.

This category could need a little more improving because it does look abandoned. It seems like virtually nobody cares about RE5 mercenaries. I also have a few ideas how to make mercenaries a little more appealing to at least attract a few more players.

With a freshly newly established leaderboard for this category we could give players back the chance to enjoy the mercenaries WITHOUT the cheaters.... just like the old days where you could easily see who's on top or what the top 10 looks like. Nobody wants to look at the official leaderboard because there are simply thousands and thousands of cheaters and nobody makes the effort to scroll up for literally a few minutes just to see who has legitimate scores.

With speedrun. com there's finally a centralized source where players can gather and post their legitimately verified scores.

Ive been a really big fan of the mercenaries & I am fairly skilled at it. I wanna give the mercenaries THE RECOGNITION IT TRULY DESERVES.
