SolidRed posted:RE6 was a labour of love. It has loads of references to the old game and my co op partner and I even decided the boss who follows you during the Sherry/Jake campaign is actually Steve from Code Veronica. You even use the Code Veronica bull dozer on him in one section. This made shooting him in the heart even harder. Why the gently caress would that make it harder

ImpAtom posted:The inventory system in RE6 is basically nonexistent. You have all your weapons at once and the most management you have to do is occasionally dropping some ammo to have room for an herb. What if you don't have any interest in the co-op? $40 still fair?

Is the agent forced into your game now, or is its inclusion optional? If it's the former, then good job wrecking one of the few immersive chapters of the game, Capcom.

I just started RE6. Playing offline, on Veteran difficulty. Is this ill-advised? Because boy, do the zombies hit me hard. Watching Leon roundhouse-kick the undead in half is as satisfying as ever but I really don't like dealing with co-op.

I've read that, in particular, the endboss of Chris' campaign is almost unbeatable without a co-op player. Is that just sour grapes, or do I need to anticipate a brick wall when I'm playing solo? It's not that I'm completely deadset against co-op (okay actually I am, it's one form of multiplayer I could never stand), but my Internet connection is spotty as hell on a good day and I really like having a working Pause button.

That's encouraging. Also I'd just like to say that the headset flashlights are super nifty and should be adopted in more games, assuming that the bulbs do not grow hot, because that would be really distracting when trying not to get eaten by something.

Are there seriously only 3 non-DLC Mercenaries maps available? Because if so, oh man, I have got to stop buying games from Capcom. This is like the fourth time they've sent me on this merry-go-round.

Wanderer posted:The point is that the other two weapons besides the Picador are hand cannons, the tilt-a-whirl slam kills one zombie and scores a long knockdown on any zombies you hit while Helena's spinning, and Helena's elbow drop is the fastest kill move in the game. If you're not playing Helena like she's a pro wrestler, you're doing it wrong. Yeah, but that applies to every character. Melee in the morning/evening/suppertime and high explosives when the mobs get too thick. Quick Shot melee when the enemy's packing a melee weapon or is a dog, conventional headshot melee otherwise. Apparently RE5's Mercenaries mixed it up a little? I dunno, never played it. Helena lacks decent ordinance, which at least puts her way behind Leon (the only other character I've used so far). The Hydra is flipping terrible even if I use Quick Shot to reload and the grenade launcher, at least, isn't too hot against zombies. I've only gone through Urban Chaos but it felt like a worse map by far than anything in RE4. You run through the side shops to break the crystals and scoop up the items and then do all your fighting in the central area, since the sides are too cramped to duck into. Also the body-armor zombies at around kill 50 spawn on the opposite drat end of the map every time and make me lose my combo and it is just crazy frustrating.

Len posted:Based on reading posts in other threads I just assume he's bad at games but blames the game for his faults. To be fair, RE6 is absolutely one of those games where, if you get hosed up, it is probably the game's fault. Oh sure just run me over with an unseen train two or three times, thanks bunches Is there much of a point to the slide maneuver? Mostly it just seems to rob me of maneuverability for a few seconds.

Krad posted:For the male characters, it's a better alternative than the shoulder charge, the range for that move sucks. On the other hand, nothing is more satisfying than fly kicking every single thing that moves until your stamina runs out with the female cast. Oh, drat it. Ada was the worst in RE4's Mercenaries too, what's the matter with her this time? Also this is a minor nitpick but her features are a lot less angular in this game, and that bugs me. Makes her look teenaged.

Krad posted:Her loadout is the worst. Her handgun takes longer than anyone else's to reload and her alternate gun is the bowgun, aka the most useless weapon in the whole game. Aside from that, her melee attacks also seem to take longer to execute when compared to everyone else's. She is just no Sherry/Helena, really. Carla packs Helena's pistol and a grenade launcher with about 20 rounds total scattered across all three types, so I'd say she gets the better deal.

Honestly, I'm glad Wesker is dead. He might have been RE's main villain but he was tedious as hell and even after his passing all people seem to remember of him is his Matrix bullshit and that SATURATION meme. That still leaves the question of where to take the series, though. RE6 literally nuked cities (in between swimming sections, who the hell greenlit that sequence), so it's hard to escalate much further. The co-op angle doesn't really seem to be paying off, either, which is fine by me, because bluh, co-op.

I kind of hope Capcom keeps up the naming scheme of their enemies. In RE4 it was Spanish because the locale was Notspain, in RE5 it was African because Africa, and in 6 it was Serbian because gently caress you, that's why. Let's go all-out and pick Icelandic for RE7. I want every enemy title to sound and look like the alphabet sneezed.

Question about the end of Chris' campaign. Is it even possible to kill Haos if you're playing as solo Piers? That zap cannon of his doesn't seem to do much against the thing and its cocoon ate a full clip of explosive grenades when I played as Chris. I only ask because if I ever do a Professional run I'd like to see it from the other side.

Vakal posted:Considering its long development time and the number of radically different versions that were scrapped, I'm thinking RE4 was the result of a lot of experimentation and hard work to make what we got.

ImpAtom posted:I don't really see a flaw in that argument. Seriously. Given the sort of things Gene punched to death in his game, the only way he could possibly fail a BSAA mission would be if he was laughing too hard at the enemies shuffling at him to throw a haymaker now and again. Or maybe he just tries to exterminate the entire BOW population of China with only the Yes Man Kablaam. He doesn't die, but he needs to clock out about halfway through Shanghai (working alphabetically).

Vikar Jerome posted:by direct relation im pretty sure it means you won't play the scenario in the demo in the full game. it will be another house/small town of houses involving this family. gameplay will still be first person horror like the demo. Capcom confirmed this, the demo's just a vertical slice. It also takes place in the RE universe's continuity, after RE6, which is unusual because RE6 ended with at least one entire city getting nuked by zombie gas. A haunted house in the bayou seems kind of trivial in light of that.

The Resident Evil series has been all around the map in terms of gameplay and tone (hell, it covered nearly the whole map in the last game alone, to its detriment), so taking a quick jaunt into Wannabe P.T.-ville is pretty in-character.

Spec Ops the Line was a good game salvaged from terrible executive decisions that had some interesting things to say about the nature of choice and consequence. Gamers got really really mad at it because they took the message as an indictment of them, personally. It was sort of a lightning-in-a-bottle situation, though, so who knows how RE7's script will turn out. It's got a really low bar to clear in any case.

Sakurazuka posted:Yeah, probably my biggest complaint with RE6 outside of the lovely Jake snow chapter is that is kind of outstays its welcome and the game would have been better with a more focused single campaign than four 5-6 hour ones, especially as a lot of them have you going through the same stuff from a different perspective. Jake's campaign was the most frustrating for me because it's packed with more gimmicks than any other character's and so many of them are a mess. The snowmobile, the motorcycle, I remember something in some kind of Chinese palace that ticked me off pretty bad. And the worst part is that Jake and Sherry are the only remotely fun protagonists in the game, personality-wise. Even Leon's all grim and subdued.

Ulio posted:One of the reasons, I quit RE remake is because the combat which I didn't understand how it worked. So you shoot the zombies in the head and they go down but they still don't die? So is it better to shoot them a couple more time when they are down? I lost a bunch of health because of them getting back up. The other question I have is, is the knife useful at all? Other than them being on the ground or the first lunge they do, it doesn't do much. aim until the crosshair shrinks, the shot will do more damage. they're still zombies so they don't die easy, but lining up your shots like that will make it take significantly fewer bullets than it would otherwise generally you're safe when they quit squirming but best not to linger around them too much just in case i didn't have much use for the knife either, it's probably best used to break out of zombie grabs RE's puzzles before the action-oriented entries were heavily inventory based. you are going to have a squillion keys and medallions and other assorted doodads needed to open various types of doors and you're going to have to constantly juggle which one of these items you want in your inventory alongside your weapons and recovery items. you'll never have enough room for all of them, hence the storage lockers everywhere. it's an acquired taste

the main problem with RE6 is that it changes up its gameplay so much and so often that there are bound to be several sections that a player will absolutely despise regardless of how much they like the rest jake/sherry is probably the biggest offender, that campaign's ADD as hell
