The Master of DLC Unlocking -The Jill Valentine Thread

Yeah, that gameplay footage looked VERY unpolished. And her face in her win pose was so…weird. =/

Damnit, she’s psycho, she’s supposed to be lookin’ like that. Move on.

Well yeah, but she looks so much prettier in the official screens. Actually, now that I’ve looked at the older (newer?) screens again, I can say that her skin tone is different there.

She looks like that in her win quote because it’s a facial expression, she’s having her angry face, and it looks awkward because she’s supposed to be pretty. It’s like that on purpose, it just makes her look more screwed in the head. Without any facial expression, she looks how she normally does, that much should be obvious.

Well that’s the problem. Wesker looks evil all the time, but Jill looks normal, hell, she even smiles during her machine gun hyper, and it’s not a creepy kind of smile. That victory animation just comes out of nowhere. And she doesn’t have to look fugly doing it, she never looked like that in RE5.

IIRC her psychotic behavior was periodic in RE5, right? Been awhile since I played the game. And no, Wesker doesn’t really look evil all the time, he has the same straight-face all the time, but that doesn’t make him look evil, though the constant black aura does.

Yea everyone calling her Victory pose a Mug Shot lol.
IDK maybe they could have spruce it up a bit.
Maybe not so mean but overconfident sexy look.

My favorite pose is DPH tho ATM.
But hey it is incomplete tho so gameplay wise nothing too big can be said.
I probably get her anyways.

Agreed.

Some of you guys worry about every little inconsequential detail… it is what it is and I doubt Capcom is going to change her victory image. I for one, have no problems with it. Remember, this isn’t the old Jill but RE5 Jill… they’re practically two different people/characters.

As for her gameplay, I’m liking how she can combo into her command grab (?) that seems to send the opponent flying into the corner and puts them in a hard knockdown. Apparently her f.C is an overhead; might work well with a low assist (e.g. Wesker) during pressure strings (hopefully we can combo off it).

Her j.S also looks like Cammy’s Focus Attack which is also pretty tight. Can’t wait for the final product.

I laughed my ass off at her win animation. She’s walking all sexy the CRAZY BITCH!

Well, that’s exactly why I am worried. You’ll have to see that ugly mug shot every time you win. This is the only annoying victory pose in the game, and despite what you say it is not faithful to RE5 Jill. RE5 Jill has no character. She just performs commands issued by Wesker, always focused, with a blank expression on her face. She only went apeshit after the overdose with that P30 thing. And she stopped talking when that happened. I don’t see her grunting or hissing during her victory pose. Also remember, she’s not evil herself, she’s just under mind control.

Ok, I’ll stop ranting, now.

You’re actually right but… I don’t know… I just try not to think too much about the little details. The one thing that I do feel is kinda outta place is the things she says during her Supers. It almost sounds like she’s naturally evil as opposed to being under mind control.
I really didn’t mind her win quote so much since she did sound emotionless as she muttered her line, regardless of the angry face she makes in the end…

But like I said, I try not to worry bout the details. All I really want is for Jill to be a strong character that I can work in a team.

Jill, I have no doubt, will be strong. She looks extremely technical if you want to do some of her more damaging combos however.

That’s not necessarily a bad thing if the damage of the super technical combo is very very high.

Litchi Faye-Ling anybody?

Man, I can’t wait until she is release I got the freaking SD edition gotta wait in March. After looking at her moves ah, man she is going to be beast she will be on my main team for tournaments. Go team Venture!!!

I was actually look all over for her and Shuma’s downloadable code until I looked at the back of the comic and was like, “Oh…”

Lets take another look on the applications the machine gun super. Its in an arch. It gets her out of corners. Gets the opponent in the corner. Gets closer to the opponent. Might be invincible? Has enough hit stun to start another combo? Cross over(head) potential? Paired with assists might be unblockable?

I’m thinkin its not meant to do much damage, but for resets and combo starter.

i just unlocked her and shuma.

holy shit, seth killan was right. shes the fastest character in the game. feral crouch makes her insanely fast.

she can go up, left, right, up forward and up back during the feral crouch. up forward feral crouch is a lot like omega reds omega strike but much much faster.

and her level 3 hyper is like bangs power up mode from blazblue. combine that with level 3 x factor, she moves faster than wesker and spidermans maximum supers.

dash is really good. no double jump nor air dash though.

i can see a lot of reset potentials with her.

That’s nice to hear, but would you kindly make a full write up on her moves :bgrin:. I’m desperate for new info. All these leaked vids make me both hype and angry (because of how scrubby the players are).

How the heck are yall doing this?
