Does the RE Engine even run on Switch?

OW doesn’t need 60fps, projectiles and hit boxes are fucking massive in that game, and the projectiles that aren’t are fucking hit scan lol.

Already not playing my copy of OW on PS4, so won’t be scooping it for Switch.

Prolly wouldn’t sell much tbh. But maybe they could risk it like SNK did with Samurai Showdown

I’d rather not have Capcom fuck up yet another fighing game franchise, let it stay dead

Multiplayer shooters play like shit at anything less than stable 60

LMAO at re-releasing the worst DMC game, the DmC reboot was actually way better than DMC2. Thats a complete waste of time & resources :joy:

Cool story bro. Game doesn’t actually need it tho. You feeling like it plays like shit and it actually doing so are two totally different things.

And yea I thought it was funny seeing DMC2 in that Switch Highlight Reel. Like who highlights DMC2 for anything?

Hmmmm…I’m actually starting to wonder if Dante has a real shot of showing up in Smash…

Dunno.
But outside some stuff, i think that it wouldnt be impossible to make it work on switch, with some sacrifices here and there.
Speaking of capcom engines.
What happened to their Phanta Rhei engine?

It was going to replace their MT framework, and yet they are still developing games on it, plus the RE engine and UE4.

Last news about it was like on 2017 or something.

I have a harder time picturing Dante NOT being in Smash. Honestly, i figure its just a matter of time until he’s in 🤷🏾

8326

If it does, we will finally have Dante vs Bayonetta.

I don’t see why Switch couldn’t run RE Engine. Would have to take performance hits of course, but I imagine if Capcom cared they could pull it off. iD and CDPR haven’t been scared away from the system due to performance.

I doubt it. A Switch version of RE7 exists and it’s only playable via cloud.

Hell make Starcraft II for the switch

Panta Rhei is probably vaporwear at this point. RE seems to be their engine of choice moving forward.

Considerint that the native input lag of OW is 8f, being at 30fps wouldnt help at all
Also, while in theory it will be playable at 30fps, it doesnt change that it will be less responsive.

8332

I dont mind single player at 30 fps, but multiplayer? WTF?

Thinking in terms of timing and what gaming Icons are left that havent shown up or been represented and have been on a Nintendo platform and I almost feel like what Capcom is doing is the excuse to make it happen. We don’t know how many more slots we have for season 2 but If have roughly around six then who else are we going to see at this point? That’d be pretty crazy if Dante did make it in cause that’d make 4 Capcom reps. I feel like Crash is going to take one of those slots at this point at least.

But RE doesnt have a lot of the physics features, fluid simulation, etc that PR has.
Perhaps RE is a derivative version tailored for more smaller scope games.
