EZ Quick Time Event. (English)
If you suck major at QTE like me, who could not even get one right because its too ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fast, i found an exploit that i used on Medan, and it seems to work on this one too.

The trick is pretty simples really, no need for a long guide.

1 - whenever you see a button display, pause the game
2 - remember the button you just saw
3 - then keep pressing the button you just saw as you unpause.

It is a great way to get also the quick time achievement.



WHEN ON THE MINES-RUINS, DO NOT PRESS THE BUTTONS OR YOU WILL CHOKE YOUR SOLDIER, THE GAME WILL PLAY WITH YOUR MIND, SINCE WE PLAYERS GET OBESSED/COMPELED TO PRESS QTEs
Eventos em tempo real (dica rapida) PORTUGUÊS
Se você é péssimo em EETR (Eventos em Tempo Real) que nem eu, que não consegue nem acertar um unico evento rapido, porque é muito rápido (logico), encontrei um exploit que usei no Medan e parece funcionar neste também.

O truque é bem simples, não há necessidade de um guia longo.

1 - sempre que você ver a exibição de um botão, pause o jogo
2 - lembre-se do botão que você acabou de ver no ecrã
3 - Pressione varias vezes o botão que você acabou de ver enquanto tira o jogo do pause .

É uma ótima maneira de obter também a conquista (achievement) do evento em tempo real, ou se quiser manter todo mundo vivo.





NÂO PRESSIONE O BOTÂO QUANDO ESTIVER NAS MINAS-MASMORRAS, OU VAI SUFOCAR O SEU SOLDADO, O JOGO TA TENTANDO TE ENGANAR

I think you actually should kill Merwin because it allows you to save Eric without an event, and Merwin WILL die no matter what and it doesn't really help. also if ur doing a run where Rachel gets infected, do not do the QTE for when Rachel is grabbing for Jason's gun so you can kill Rachel or save Rachel if you have the uv light.

Yeah I accidently suffocated Merwin and Rachel fell and I'm like oh shit, like how was I supposed to save them both.

If you want even easier QTEs, check the Accessibility Options to make them all single action button and hold to complete button mash.

Using Accessibility Options does not prevent you from getting achievements.

Also you might not want to disable the QTE timeouts because then you can be forced to pass some QTEs that you want to fail on purpose.
