it’s a time honored tradition to complain about RE controls… :wgrin: from 0 -5 no one ever said the controls were great.
The controls in RE4 were fucking awesome. For some reason RE5’s feel a little stiffer, but maybe because the controls are old now.
naw even then people complained about no move and shoot or even strafing.
the controls are the same, replayed RE4 last night and it’s just the same.
Don’t really remember people complaining too much; I know I didn’t. Everything felt so fresh, crisp, and responsive. It was definitely a step in the right direction, considering the series was not aging well at all.
Resident Evil 5 Full OST
I still like 2 the best, IMO. I would say give that one a try.
Just finished the RE5. Overall, I thought it was pretty good. The fight with Wesker at the end was too ridiculous though.
I’m sure a lot of you guys have finished the game, but for the sake of not fucking up the ending for someone…
SPOILERS
First I was thinking, cool he falls out of the plane, it’s over. Then the ship lands in a motherfucking volcano, I mean…shit. So after putting all of my ammo into Wesker save 2 shotgun shells, Jill and Josh show up. I was thinking great, he’s in the lava, that’s it. At that point I was thinking “Wow, a Resident Evil game that doesn’t end with me blowing up somebody with an RPG.” Then Jill hands over not one, but two fucking grenade launchers and we double team this fool who is already swimming in lava. I know the games all have a cheesiness factor to them but god damn.
I give the game an 8.5/10
In RE Outbreak File #2 the characters can shoot while moving AND aiming, ftw 
this nigga dsp has the most hilarious walkthrough of resident evil five so far. ha ha. youtube that shit
talk about…jill’s sandwich…omg capcom. i don’t wanna risk a ban but you can see through her battlesuit in certain areas.
:wtf::looney:
Anyone feel like tiering Mercenaries characters yet?

Also, I laughed quite a bit when I realized the L.Hawk was the “Lightning Hawk”, get it?
No. Please explain.
I’m on 6-2 now. Which shotgun is better: The JailBreaker or the M3? Also, I’ve just been stuffing all Magnum ammo in the “item box” the whole game. Will I ever seriously NEED it?
Cuzzzzzz T.Hawk from SF2 is Thunder Hawk.
Tribal Sheva is A-rank too IMO. You just gotta learn to aim the bow despite the lack of a laser sight.
The M3 has much higher topend damage, but the Jailbreaker has wider spread which makes it a nicer CC/area weapon. Honestly the Hydra is the best shotgun though IMO.
Magnums are nice on boss fights and enemies you don’t like fighting, but no you don’t actually need it.
I agree with that list. Both Weskers are definitely top, BSAA Jill has a damn powerful handgun, and Safari Chris is a boss killer with those 2 rocket launchers.
Just finished RE5. I liked it, but it seemed far too similar to 4 for me so it never felt like the game was amazing or anything special, save for the fact that it IS a RE game. Shit, even some of the areas(most of them later on actually)seem like almost carbon copies of areas in RE4 but with different layouts. Also, the boss fights, save a few, were pretty much all garbage.
Game was good still, great graphics and I actually really like the gameplay/controls. Now, anyone wanna lend me a hand getting some A’s so I can get more characters?
the tier list for merc seems about right, but tribal sheva is A rank. i tried out stars chris, but he doesnt seem all that but from the results people post up in youtube, he seems pretty good although its probably because of duo co-op.
the longbow is too good. it has unlimited ammo and it kills most things in one hit. shes the only one that comes with flame grenades which is good for crowd control. in addition, she has flash grenades against the exposed plagas and when things get too hectic. but thats not all, she has a grenade launcher which she doesnt really need and comes with a first aid spray.
i like bsaa jill over battle suit jill. the flash grenades are indispensable, i think the mp5 machine gun is better than the machine gun blonde jill carries.
seriously.
I’ve only had Mercenaries for a little over a week, so I’m sure my opinion will change over time. And I thought long and hard on Safari Chris over Tribal Sheva, I just like Chris’ ability to get out of “panicky” situations with his SG, and the RPG’s are always good. I’d say once I get more playtime as Tribal Sheva and I get better with aiming the longbow (although I think I’m pretty good at it), my opinion could change. I’m just not big on her crowd-control abilities. I was mainly playing her on the boat, so, that could’ve been influencing my decision, as it felt to me that she may have been disadvantaged there.
