Last months console sales out yet?
I just watched a vid over at gametrailers about Evolve… that game interests me, but I wish there was something else to it. When a game is PURE multiplayer, it seems like a half-ass thing to me…imo that’s an incomplete product. At the very least, a single player vs. bots mode with something resembling a story…at least that would be something. Multiplayer should always just be a “piece” of the game…as opposed to the whole thing. This was one of my only complaints about that fps-version Shadowrun that was out on 360 some years ago…it was all multiplayer + a very short “training” mode, and that was it.
^invalid post on srk of all places
All of this kind of talk would get people losing their teeth quick in person.
Play nice, you lot.
Jesus Christ. Are you bitches all 13?
no not yet I don’t think those will show up until next week.
Also Bayo 2’s trailer is out in 60fps glory

pick your poison
No it’s valid. After all, we spend most of our time in Fighting Games in Training Mode, which Evolve does not seem to have.
On top of that Fighting Games don’t require you to have friends playing them to have fun. Hell have the time it involves pissing people off. But when it comes to things like Evolve you simply won’t get max enjoyment unless you have a crew to run with.
Resident Evil Revelations 2 will see the return of Claire Redfield; introduces Barry’s daughter
Damn, was hoping for Barry himself, but whatever. Moira sounds like she’ll make for a more “classic” RE experience (item management & running away from enemies). The site has some magazine scans showing the two. The second pic seems to indicate that Moira can temporarily incapacitate certain foes by blinding them with her flashlight.
EDIT: Moira’s hair & coat remind me slightly of Best Dante :lol:.
Some new Resident Evil Revelations 2 info that GAF is getting from a magazine.
info from from front post
Spoiler
Earlier this morning my issue of the November Gamesmaster Magazine turned up in the post and with it were some exciting details for the recently announced Resident Evil: Revelations 2, set for release early 2015 for the PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
Many of the details revealed include the return of Claire Redfield, the daughter of Barry Burton, plot and enemy details and much more. This information was revealed when Gamesmaster sat down with Resident Evil: Revelations 2 producer Michiteru Okabe.
I will list some of those exciting details below, but if you want to read the article in full, then you can pick up the November issue of Gamesmaster Magazine. I have also taken some images direct from the magazine, for which you can find below.
Claire Redfield will return as the playable lead and it is said that “In the time since we last saw her (Claire), she’s grown to be a seasoned veteran.”
Claire will be joined throughout the campaign with Moira Burton, daughter of the legendary Barry Burton.
The campaign will be playable in co-op or singleplayer.
When playing as Claire, her style will be more combat focused. Whereas Moira will be supplying Claire with health herbs, provided the flashlight and general support.
Claire will be the only player death that will result in a Game Over, one of Moira’s key roles will be to help keep Claire alive (though Claire can obviously heal herself).
The story will take place on an abandoned island detention facility.
The campaign will begin with Claire and Moira awakening after being abducted.
The events will take place between the events of Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6.
Gameplay will be much more Survival Horror orientated (much like the first Resident Evil: Revelations), bringing the series back to its roots with less over the top action, unlike Resident Evil 5 and 6.
Fan feedback has played a part in the development of Resident Evil: Revelations 2.
Producer Okabe said that “The project has been finding the line between listening to fan feedback and also doing something different to confound expectations.”
Okabe also said that “I want this to be both a game that doesn’t lose what made its predecessor great, while also bringing something new and exciting to the Resident Evil series.” He also added that “Achieving that lofty goal by bringing together past and future will make this an itchy-tasty prospect indeed.”
Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will feature a new “Afflicted” enemy type, which “may look like zombies, but are in fact something quite different.”
The Afflicted enemy will be both fast and able to deal heavy damage to the player. It is also said that they will force the player to decide whether to take them head-on, sneak up using stealth and applying a take-down or the player can run for the hills and “preserve ammo”.
Resident Evil: Revelations 2 will run at 1080p and 60fps (for the PC and new gen versions at least).
Sucks for player 2.
Barry better be playable in Raid mode.
It sounds like Moira wont be able to fight at all. Who the fuck would co-op run that as Moira? I know I wouldn’t. Won’t catch me being the left hand function of Alan Wake no sir. I think Barry would break Raid Mode. Do you not know how broken tier he was in RE5 mercenaries? They gave the man a Samurai Edge, and SW500, and a headbutt melee that one hits common zombie 100% of the time. He was baby Wesker.
I’m so glad to see know that Claire will be back. She’s my favorite RE lead. About fucking time she come back! Moira part sounds ok. It’ll be interesting to have a second player play a strictly supporting role. I’ll hate to play as her as her part portion sounds run simulator-ish. I’m curious how Barry’s kid ended up in this mess.
I dunno, if playing with a random, I think I’d rather be in control of the herbs & flashlight. Can imagine the asshatery of some not lighting the way or failing to heal you :lol:.
But yes, gotta also have that Raid Mode again for my conventional co-op jollies.
Also inb4 inb4 feminists use Claire as an example of how women are made to appear lesser than men in video games.
I can just hear it now…
“I mean look at Claire. They made her a woman who cant juggle a gun, a flashlight, and healing items at the same time. Meanwhile you have all these other middle aged white men who can shine a flashlight while holding 5 different guns and still heal themselves! It’s so demeaning that it takes two women in this game to do what one man can in others.”
I’m warning you all now as someone who hates this gaming feminist buzzword bullshit. EXPECT that shitstorm to happen. It will happen.
I remember feminists attacking the first Revelations games over Jessica and Rachael. This new one doesn’t even have anything to pretend to be offended over…yet.
So Moira is Elizabeth from bioshock
Ah, the First Lady of Resident Evil finally returns (yeah I have her over Jill right now, you got a problem?).
Sounds mostly like what I described in a previous post, hope it’s a good game.
Sounds great for first time players, or people who are willing to actually “co-operate” in a supporting role. I can see how this can be a problem for a some who wants to play aggressively in 2nd player, but it’s nice to know that this isn’t completely catering to that kind of player in the first place.
Jill lost all her cool points when she became zero suit anime zombie waifu
