I've been waiting for about 18 years for Barry to make his return to the series as a protagonist not involved in REmake or what else...gaiden?
I remember playing CV after his RE3 cameo hoping he would show up, but nothing. That's not to say that the Chris vs Wesker story wasn't great and over the top...but Barry. Where's Barry?!

Aside from that, I was thinking that since RE is bat poo poo insane anyways, and I never mind seeing antagonists coming back (climb out of that volcano Wesker!), Rev 2 also including Claire...and looks like it might involve the ocean again, and well...I'm predicting that the tyrant from CV that was launched out of the plane makes a dramatic return after years of wandering the sea floor...waiting for this perfect moment to settle things with Claire :v:

Man, any job dealing with the ocean has to be horrific in the RE universe. I mean, hasn't the t-virus and other bioweapons been introduced to the ocean at least twice now? It's a big place, but can you imagine how much hazard pay anyone working underwater'd have to get because of zombie fish or "Some hosed up giant guy with explosive arrows sticking out of him?"

Wow, I knew Capcom was creatively backrupt but a lot of those points are directly from Code Veronica. I'm not sure what they're trying to do with that coop partner, though. You can be Claire and get all the guns and other crazy stuff and you can be Moira who cowers in the corner occasionally healing Claire. That sounds like tons of fun to an out-of-touch Capcom designer/producer, I'm sure.

Actually playing as Barry Burton would be like playing as Gandalf. You're on a different playing field compared to the rest of the cast in terms of power.

And much like Gandalf, he will return when he is needed thanks to whatever plot contrivance Capcom can cook up as Barry the Slighly Going Grey.

I think it is their response to everyone bitching about coop AI in single player... This way you are now the only character doing something, and the AI is just there to support and assist you (this sounds exactly like ellie/joel).

problem is I hope it isnt going to be lame for human coop.

That's fine for the AI but for human coop that isn't very fun and if it's interesting it'll be interesting for five minutes before you realize that all you do is run and hide while Claire is suplexing enemies to death or doing some over-the-top stealth kill or is wielding Barry's handcannon and blowing enemies in half with it.

Or maybe that character is a girlfriend mode cuz, you know, girls don't know how to play these crazy video games! Haha! Right fellas?!

He's just doing the Resident Evil 2 sliding movement. That was always a fun thing. Some jerk just happened to be shooting him at the time.

I'd wait to see more information before I'd assume that means the character is utterly incapable of combat. I'd assume it means that there is a mechanical difference but it's probably more akin to Jill/Chris in the original Resident Evil as opposed to "one character fights, one character can only heal."

Yeah, that's probably a better comparison.

I also assume we'll see the return of Raid Mode or something like it as well. It'd make no sense to cut that out of the game. Not just because it's been in before but because it's ripe for Microtrasactioning.

There's always a battle mode. Likely we'll see Barry and Chris in it in addition to other characters in this game.

As long as they don't renege on a robust combat system I won't care what they try to do.

Also it would be great if there were no instant kill glass cannons like the Wall Blister which you can't break out of.

Those things were awesome and not bad at all. You pretty much always knew they were coming due to their sacs. Plus, they had one of the coolest kill animations in the game.

Nah, Barry died and had his ashes forged into a Magnum which his daughter carries around and seemingly talks to.

So, basically Janeane Garofalo's character from Mystery men.
