Resident Evil (Questions & Discussions) Thread

Fuck it. Read at own risk. If you’ve seen previous trailers, you probably know this already. It’s about a certain boss fight.

[SPOILER=]An explanation on why it’s garbage.

At one point you fight El Gigante from RE4, in his RE5 incarnation.

In Re4 you fought him three times total. If you fought him, twice, you’re a little bitch.

The first is solo, though the dog could help slightly.

The second fight has you fighting him in a smaller space, while protecting Ashley, and probably depleted off ammo after the cabin showdown with Luis.

The third fight has you going up against two of them, in the room with the lava.

This is assuming you’re not playing on easy, and without special weapons like Chicago Typewriter or any of that. Even if you played the game before, if you fight him of off a clean game (no items carry over) this dude is hard, every time.

Now in RE5

The fight against Gigante has you stationary (as in not driving) on a jeep with a fucking gatling gun, infinite ammo. Gigante coon shuffles from left to right. Thats all he does. If he moves towards you, shoot him. He picks something up to throw, shoot, and he’ll drop it. Ammo is infinite. AMMO IS INFINITE.

Sheva is also laying into him. After the ways you fought him in RE4, WTF is this shit. Thats why I laid it out before explaining how you fight him. It’s just sad.

It’s especially sad, cause most enemies in Re5 are agressive as fuck

[/SPOILER]

And a small tip, for the whole game: Learn to love your sniper rifles.

He doesn’t need a spoiler tag because he didn’t spoil anything, really. He’s just telling us there’s one boss fight that’s crap. No biggie.

I think he was asking me to spoil stuff, using spoiler tags so others wouldnt be pissed off.

Also, I dont like the characters in this game at all.

In 4, you had amusing baddies, luis.ada and ashley. This game those people filling in ar just annoying.

If they make a live movie for 5.

Use Bourne, Zoe Saldana, Belucci. Throw in whoever else for the rest of the cast.

An RE5 movie would be neat. A younger Robert Patrick would have made an excellent Wesker. I vote Thomas Jane for Chris Redfield.

^ clive owen could be a badass wesker.

yo these alternate outfits are fucking awesome :woot:

and “graphic filter” is easily the dumbest thing I ever seen…EVER! all it does is put a black n white or red hue over everything. so useless. dont see why anyone would ever use it.

Wii owners are getting Resident Evil/Biohazard: Dark Side Chronicles. I’m assuming it’s gonna be a sequel to UC.

As long as some actual effort is put into this one, I’m down. I’m sure I’ll enjoy it more than I will RE5.

about something I saw:

see

[details=Spoiler]from what I saw on youtube in chapter 3… yea, that part could be a problem. bush-africans throwing spears as if we watchin a episode of Johnny Quest… I dont feel it’s racist but I can see how dumb asses will try to make up shyt about that.

oh yea, GO JOSH! [/details]

from what I learned for handling the AI is I only allow them to remain defensive and to give them only pistol ammo. she holds all of my health items and I hold onto 3 guns with grenades. so far works well when I’m by myself. :tup:

source? :pleased:

Link maybe?

Fake.

PvP in a RE?

The Dark Side Chronicles scan shows Kendo’s shop with zombies.

“The evidence in question has come from official Capcom statements in the last few weeks; In regards to possible remakes of beloved RE entries such as Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica, Capcom had responded to fans of both titles that a future announcement would be underway.”

Dear god please Capcom remake RE2.

Code Veronica too! And make Claire’s alt costume playable throughout the game instead of just that time trial thingy. :rock:

The announcement turned out to be the Dark Side Chronicles. There’s a scan out there from famitsu showing the RE2 scenario with Leon and Claire. Sadly, it looks like we’ll never see an RE2 remake.

They’ll probably have to butcher the storyline and events in RE2 to make it so that Claire and Leon never got seperated.
