Resident Evil (Questions & Discussions) Thread

Well we don’t know if they are zombies yet. If the story picks up after 4 then…

RE4 Ending

Spoiler

Wesker makes off with the pure sample of the plague, perhaps he uses it to make more “infected” people and not zombies?

RE5 will be more like 28 days later but you cant stay out in the sun for too long. that’s how i look at it.

but i hope to god that it’s nothing like this:

RE3 does take place before and after RE2, obviously RacoonCity is full of zombies in both, Jill and Carlos get to the Police station before Leon and Claire.

Its here in RE3 you find the file of Marvin Branagh the token black man the cop remember who becomes a zombie in RE2.

As for the after part I doubt Leon and Claire would be walking around a city thats been NUKE’d too bits, which is what happend in RE3, in RE2 they escape on a train and actually blow up the train to kill William Birkin.

Code Veronica begins…

So it was Capcoms fuck up to have the Police Station all boarded up in 3 then?

Actually one of my most fav parts in RE was when you have to stop the Train from crashing by inputing the right unlock brake codes, with the timer going down it really felt like a real situation that could happen, more of those types of puzzles I wouldnt mind.

Dont even get me started on Silent Hills puzzles good lord their insanely tough.

Well either that or Leon and Claire were walking around a pretend RacoonCity since it got nuked in part3.

I don’t know the official line of reasoning for the place being more boarded up or inaccessible, I assume from a designer’s standpoint that the police station is only a small chapter for Jill in 3 whereas it’s an enormous part of the story in 2. So making most of the station off limits to Jill was keeping the story on track more than trying to fit part 2’s aesthetics. All I know is that the timeline I stated before is correct, the events of Nemesis up until Jill gets infected are before 2, and the events when she recovers are after.

I don’t have access to them at the moment but somewhere on the web fans had collaborated to get all the data files and timeline statistics from the two games and had layed out who was where at what times, I do remember that Jill’s running narration of part 3 stated the specific dates in September when she was active.

editI don’t want to seem like I’m trying to overexplain or cover Capcom’s errors from a design standpoint, but the removing of various barriers and such could also be attributed to Nemesis having run of the station after Jill’s exit.

Just saying, how can the police station be demoilshed in 3, and nice in 2 if 3 comes anytime before 2? If 3 happened sometime before 2 it would go something like this:

RE3 beginning of game - police station destroyed
RE2 happens next - police station in nice condition
RE3 continues on after 2 - police station back to being destroyed

EDIT: sorry, just read above post, dropping it now as it’s not that important. :looney:

RE 3.5 can’t be bought to my knowledge. It seems like thats the new name given to the “beta” version of RE4, before it became what it is now.

what is this resident evil 3.5 you guys speak of?

I actually agree with this but since I’ve never played RE1 on the Gamecube (don’t have one) for me it goes - RE4, RE2, Nemesis and RE1(PS1 version).

You can’t buy it.

Resident Evil 3.5 was Resident Evil 4,before they scrapped the idea IIRC.

oh your talking about when leon was fighting the killer dolls and shit.

So I recently started up RE1: Director’s Cut since I’ve had that and RE2 forever and never really played them.

All I can say is HOLY SHIT the controls are awful. I put in on arrange mode and died like ten minutes into it because I couldn’t fucking shoot a dog running circles around me (nevermind the fact I had like no ammo).

Damn look at all of those zombies on screen.The combination of the shitty controls would have made that game hard as hell.

Wait, what, Pretend Raccoon City:rofl:.

Okay, you’re all abunch of douchebags…

RE4>REMake>RE2>RE:CV>RE3>REZero>Outbreak>Gunsurvivor

Nothings better than 4, period. So no more arguing the fact, aiight? REMake rocked because of the new Red Death zombie, AI that chased you from room to room and “three mean shark”. RE2 is way better than 3, I always got lost and the puzzles were getting really lame in 3. REZero was okay, a tad boring a yeah, the zombie leeche idea was really gay. I hated those damn chimps.

I tried playing RE4 Wii-Edition this weekend but was too high to operate the controls properly.

Is there a date yet for 5?

And does everyone else here agree that the third film will suck? Mad Max Vs. zombies! Gay-suckage!

And I’m glad RE3.5 got cancelled. Those ghosts and dolls looked really retarded.

Shit, Nemesis must have used Mr. Clean or something cause that shit was spotless.

they still going to do online play for RE 5 right?oh shit if they do i can already see the srk tags coming.

its gonna have online content. Maybe something like the mercenaries will be online but i doubt the main game will be.
