General opinion is that it's basically a preview of the Lost In Nightmares DLC for Resident Evil 5, so you can pretty much ignore it.

Wasn’t that well released by the time Revelations came out? I think it’s just a reminder that RE5 happens next.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

Yeah, preview in the sense of 'a look forward,' not in the 'game trailer' sense. Sorry, bad phrasing.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

The story was just filler/backstory, it came out WAY after RE5. I think Capcom was just using is as a New 3DS tech demo of some kind, it sucked on the New 3DS but was fine on regular consoles that had normal controllers.

I've just started re remake on the switch and I'm super impressed by the atmosphere, just wondering how many save ribbons you get on a normal play through?

I tend to pick up and play in short bursts and my wife uses the switch as well so resuming isn't much of an option. Just don't want to burn through my ribbons early!

Twenty-five-ish or so, if they didn't change that. They come in batches of three, at least on normal.

I think there's way more than 25 on Normal, I remember saving nearly that many times and having plenty to spare. You'll never run out of saves unless you save like, every time you kill a zombie. Don't fret it.

I might've missed some, but yeah, there are so many, one way or the other you'd have to be actively trying in order to run out.

Give the partner a rifle because they’re basically an aimbot that will just delete enemies autonomously. This will be less effective in close quarters, and fail in scripted scenarios like gimmick boss fights, but it’s the best tactic overall.

Posts claiming human partner is necessary are greatly exaggerated. Thats only required to get it done on the hardest difficulty. Its really not all that hard.

A human partner isn't necessary, but it makes the experience much more enjoyable. RE4 is still the best implementation of having an AI partner near-constantly following in the entire series, mostly by making Ashley as much of an unobtrusive hanger-on who stays out of your way as possible.

The Capcom leaks continue. And they got real big real fast.

quote:

As more information from the leaked data packages continues to trickle out, Capcom’s alleged game development plans for the next four years appear to have made their way online. The schedule includes a mix of sequels and remakes, while others are only listed under their codenames.

Here is a list of the biggest names listed in the purported schedule:
Resident Evil Outbreak - Q4 FY21
Dragon’s Dogma 2 - Q2 FY22
Street Fighter 6 - Q3 FY22
Rockman [Mega Man in North America] Match - Q3 FY22
Resident Evil 4 Remake - Q4 FY22
Monster Hunter 6 - Q2 FY23
Biohazard Apocalypse - Q3 FY23
“SSF6” - Q4 FY23
Final Fight Remake - Q2 FY24
Power Stone Remake - Q3 FY24
Ultra SF6 - Q4 FY24
Resident Evil Hank [likely, “Hunk”] - Q4 FY24

Real talk though, I don’t know anything about the source credibility but that list reads as some real wish fulfillment. Also, the idea that three iterations of a Street Fighter entry could be plotted years in advance like that seems kind of impossible. Obviously there’s some forecasting that needs to be done but two update installments?

The list is Capcom's plan, not a definite schedule. Nothing on it should be taken as gospel, especially now that it's loose in the world.

It's probably safe to assume that at any given time behind the scenes, they've got all sorts of early prototypes, test phases, and designs going on, particularly now that they're trying to do more things in house again.

To Umbrella (if it still existed) winning means having a steady stream of wealthy customers to sell their bioweapons to and a civilized world left in which to spend that money, so that would be a bit off-brand for the series.

A ranked Claire in RE2 PS1 and unlocked Hunk. Man the 4th Survivor doesn't gently caress around, particularly the upstairs save where it appears impossible to avoid taking damage. Also limping over the finish line and getting an E ranking is the funniest RE thing I've seen in a while, that was loving hard work dammit

Winning for Umbrella actually meant having a genetic caste system where the 'elite' were physically transhuman and superior to the 'weak' who would serve them because they've always been insane eugenicists. It's actually one of the neater points of RE's story, that Umbrella's BOW bullshit is all a sideshow/byproduct of a bunch of rich colonialist eugenicists trying to psuedoscience their way to an imagined transhuman feudalism using stuff they didn't understand that they dug up all over the world, because they were crazy ideologues.

It was Spencer's thing but he's the one who picked from cabals of like-minded idiots like the Ashfords to run his company. He and a past Ashford together discovered the crazy magic king-flower in Africa. The past Ashford, being an Ashford, immediately went 'it makes superior people into ultra-kings!? Excellent, let me eat this and-' exploded from super-cancer. Oh, Ashfords.
