** The Anal Probe was made less finicky than it was in the first game's remake. While it still has the "timed shot" mechanic, timing the shot incorrectly no longer causes it to misfire; instead, a properly timed shot causes the probe to return and refund the ammo spent, collecting nearby brainstems as it does so, while an incorrectly timed shot will cause the probe to remain where the victim died as an ammo pickup, requiring the player to collect the probe and brain manually.
