Resident Evil (Questions & Discussions) Thread

Ok I know we are days away from this amazing game but whats up with special weapons? any hand cannon action or chicago typewriter?

You could always go to Gamefaqs and read all the unlocks for the game.

:looney: No reason for me to make up stories.

I think that guy is a liar.

He could be. Then again Biohaze has been around since 05, and never had much of a “active” forum. Quite a bit of work to register there and troll.

At any rate, they are saying Capcom made a mistake in leaking the trophies too soon, hence them dissappearing after the recent sync update. He found a japanese player who hadnt synced yet and hadhim copy the trophy objectives.

Take it for what it is.

:,(

The news about the RE5 mulitiplayer update isn’t fake or a lie.

We will see.

Because obviously this game - with it’s stop and shoot targeting system, would make for a great game of “whoever see’s the other person first gets the kill” deathmatch.

This game has more weapons than RE4:

List of Weapons

Miscellaneous

Now they’re just makin’ shit up.

I also love how the egg is still being considered a weapon. They might as well arm Chris with a Nerf gun.

Weapons work a little bit different in 5.

Every weapon can be upgraded for Firepower, reloading speed and capacity.

The exceptions are stuff like grenades, the Stun rod, and the G-Launcher which has different properties depending on what ammo is used.

Some weapons get a 4th property to upgrade. Some have Piercing (shoot through shield, barricades etc), some have Range etc.

Not every gun gets a special upgrade like in RE4. However, some guns get an insane boost on the last upgrade. The standard pistol you start the game with, has a clip that holds 70 bullets when upgraded.

When you upgrade certain weapons ( M96, Ithaca shotgun) and max them out, you unlock new hidden weapons.

Spoiler for unlockable weapon and Rodimus

Spoiler for Shin mech

[SPOILER=]The noctovision is a launcher that can be reloaded. You can only use it during one fight. Can’t buy it. It’s a piece of shit too, much like the Flamethrower [/details]

damn I wish they stayed with this direction for RE4 and also RE5

That’s kind of a lot of trouble to go through to be lying.

I think it’s legit.

Some games really don’t work with versus multiplayer.

Max Payne wouldnt work. And for RE5 I dont see how it would work either.

And games (and movies) need to stop using fucking bullet time. In gameplay or cinematics.

It was cool in the Matrix, and Max Payne, but it’s fucking 2009 now.

Ooooh The camera zooms in on the bullet Chris just fired in slowmo, and pans out at the moment of impact.

Yeah I totally agree. The control scheme, would be pretty shit for multiplayer.

You pretty much have to have open ended areas with minimal cover, to expect people to be done in a reasonable amount of time.

I think it’ll be a lot like the GTA IV multiplayer. It’ll have a lot of people on around release date, but in the long term will be short lived.

I hope I eat those words, and get served, but I couldn’t imagine Multiplayer with Resident Evil 5 type controls beign long lived.

Actually, this game could more or less work in multiplayer. It would be weird as hell but it could.

Spoiler territory for gameplay this time

[SPOILER=]

Remember in Re4, way in the beginning. At some point, you bust through a window, and there’s three guys throwing dynamite at you. You get a prompt, that allows you to take cover. I think this was the only time in Re4 this was used.

In RE5, this mechanic returns, and has been fleshed out. You can take cover behind objexts, walls, and stuff like that. While there, you can reload, and hold the shoot button to immediately pop up in aiming mode. When you release, you’re back into cover. If you’re against a wall, you’ll pop around the corner. Also works with grenades. While in cover you can not move though. So if you’re against a pillar, you can’t shoot from the left corner, shimmy to the right and shoot from there. You have to release cover, go to the right corner, and activate cover again.

Annoying

This shit is pretty important in RE5. you will have to use it. You’ll see why.
[/SPOILER]

There you have RE5 versus mode. I don’t think it would be fun though. I hated that shit in single player. Versus other it would be a snooze fest.

The problem isnt even about the controls, but mechanics.

I can’t wait for RE5!! only 2 more days! woo hoo!!

Man, that looks so much better… just has better atmosphere. RE4 and I’m guessing RE5 is gonna be fun, judging from the gameplay videos i watched, but I’m glad they said they are reinventing themselves for RE6.

Its not like survivor horror anymore, its action.

And that’s what I miss the most :\

RE2 Remake! Make it happen!!

Action horror I would say.

The fact that you can play with a Human, pretty much destroys any sense of survival.

Me and some guy I met playing the demo today, and who is also supposed to be my Resident Evil 5 partner now were fucking putting in work.

Even though I’m not scared, there’s still a horror aspect in the game though, if only because all of the fucked up creatures.

Its Action Horror, deal with it.
And i’m hoping that this reinvention for RE6 doesn’t put it back into the old RE zombie game.

I pray to god it does.

I hope they don’t turn it into Gears of War because of all the controller bitching.
