Find all the intel, security cameras, and other collectibles in Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. This guide details their locations and rewards.

Alright, so you're diving into Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City and want to know about all the goodies hidden around? This section's all about the stuff you can collect beyond just ammo and health. We're talking intel that unlocks cool stuff and security cameras that give you bonus XP. Let's break it down so you don't miss a thing!

Collecting Intel

Throughout the game, you'll find various pieces of intel – think files, video tapes, discs, you name it. Keep an eye out for these! Once you snag one, you'll need to find a special laptop to upload it to Umbrella corporate. Doing this nets you experience points and, pretty cool, gallery images. You get about 50 XP for each intel item you send off, and a gallery image pops up roughly every 1.5 intel items. The best part? These intel items always show up in the same spots, and you can grab them over and over. So yeah, you could totally replay the first mission a bunch of times to snag all the gallery images before you even get to mission two if you wanted to!

Security Cameras

Just like the intel, there are security cameras dotted around the levels. These look like the black orb cameras you see nowadays, usually mounted on walls or ceilings. Each one you blast gives you a 50 XP bonus. But here's the kicker: if you manage to destroy all the security cameras in a given level, you'll get a sweet 500 XP bonus. So, it pays to be thorough and keep your eyes peeled for these little guys.

Items & Ammo

Besides the intel and cameras, you'll also find your usual survival gear. Sometimes, enemies will even drop items when you take them down. Here's a quick rundown of what you might stumble upon:

• RECOVERY ITEMS
  • Green Herb — Instantly heals a bit of your health. Always good to have!
  • First-Aid Spray — This gets added to your quick inventory when you pick it up. Use it by pressing Left on the D-Pad for a big health boost.
  • Anti-Viral Spray — Also goes into your quick inventory. Press Down on the D-Pad to cure yourself of any T-virus infection. Essential if you get bitten or puked on!
• AMMO ITEMS
  • Pile of Bullets — Tops off one clip for both of your currently equipped weapons.
  • Ammo Pack — Fully restores ammo for both your weapons. You can use this three times before it disappears.
  • Ammo Crate — This is the jackpot! A big box that fully restores ammo for both weapons. You can use this an unlimited number of times, so don't be shy.
• GRENADES
  • Frag Grenade — The classic red grenade. Thrown by friend and foe alike. Explodes after a short timer, dealing heavy damage in a decent area.
  • Flashbang Grenade — This blue grenade stuns enemies with a bright flash. It explodes on impact and affects a good chunk of the area, making them easy targets for a moment.
  • Incendiary Grenade — An orange grenade. Works like a frag, but when it explodes, it leaves a burning pool on the ground that damages anyone who walks through it.
