For those interested, PR and download trailer here: http://www.gamersyde.com/news_resident_evil_6_announced-12366_en.html

 

[Zeal]

Bring on the Brohazard, baby.

 

[Tempy]

It's a pretty cool trailer and looks a lot of fun, but I have a feeling some Resident Evil fans are not gonna like it.

 

[Nirolak]

The one with the bald dude. Which is interesting, since he seems to be an BOW dealer, or something. Same voice actress as Ashley.

Oh right, *that* Ashley.

 

[randomwab]

Also; at about 46 seconds into the trailer, is that an RE1 music throwback?

God, I want those Leon moments.

 

[Murkas]

Another TPS :/

Aiming out of cover, sprinting into cover blah blah blah.

Same shit, different name. Guarantee it shares 50% of it's controls layout with other TPS's making it feel even more samey

Bet theres an online mode too when I can shoot 12 year olds.

Leon stuff looked ok.

 

[JimmyRustler]

Leon..?

Bought.

Why? He seems nothing like in RE4. I just can't believe they messed around with one the greatest game characters ever. This is like a nightmare. What has my favourtie seris become?

 

[Deleted member 30609]

I have to wonder how long each section will be. RE5 was already much shorter than RE4.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

OP says you can.

Oh shit, really? Better go read it again cos I missed that detail then.

 

[Hero]

Leon's part looked okay. Chris' looked terrible.

Will wait for the inevitable Gold Edition.

Really wish they weren't so focused on the co-op.

 

[Cartman86]

Looking good so far.

 

[brandonh83]

 

[LiquidMetal14]

CG trailer :/

Seriously? Damnit, I was just getting ready to watch it when I finished reading this page. Not watching CG.

 

[Xpliskin]

Survival-horror is dead and buried.
This will be a good action game I guess.

"revamp on all new levels" , this is the same gameplay as RE4-5 and other TPSs+ some uncharted influence.


Is the co-op optional ?

 

[biosnake20]

That same report suggests this game is being styled after both Resident Evil 4 and 5, attempting to find a middle ground between horror and action.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

from the reaction here, this game was supposed to have pre rendered backgrounds and circling the same environment 500 times to collect pieces of a valve that you use to turn off a steam pump and get the Heart key for heart marked doors. also, player characters should not have been able to do anything but stand still and fire one bullet at a time.

this is like 2003-era gamefaqs level of strawmanning dude

 

[Acquiescence]

It's the year 2012 and Leon still has that floppy fringe. Move on Capcom...let it go.

 

[StuBurns]

Go watch the RE5 E3 trailer, now that is how you do a trailer.

Too bad that wasn't how you do a game.

The trailer is hardly an indication of anything here, other than settings and mood. The amount of action could be consistent with the game, or it could be completely out of whack to make an 'exciting' trailer. We really don't know at this point.

 

[iAmMaximus]

Time to go back and beat RE5.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

I thought the same.

The graphics are definitely a step down.

Down? What were you watching? They looked on par to better than RE5 to me.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Why? He seems nothing like in RE4. I just can't believe they messed around with one the greatest game characters ever. This is like a nightmare. What has my favourtie seris become?

He's Leon. It doesn't matter. Leon=bought.

 

[V_Ben]

Well, that looked pretty ridiculous. If fucking insane is the direction RE has chosen to go, I'm ok with that.

 

[EhrgeizVII]

I remember the times when you were freaking out over one zombie in a small corridor.

Now you can take out 300 at a time without breaking a sweat. Damnit.

 

[Einbroch]

Uh, wow. Yes? Yes. That was amazing. Holy crap.

Who cares if it looks more dudebro-y, guess I'm a dudebro. God damn. I said GOD DAMN.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Looks like what I was expecting.

 

[TTP]

Seriously? Damnit, I was just getting ready to watch it when I finished reading this page. Not watching CG.

It's not CG.

 

[Seraphinianus]

Go watch the RE5 E3 trailer, now that is how you do a trailer.

and then the game was nothing like it.

apparently people don't understand that the B.O.W shit is now a worldwide pandemic...how are they supposed to use that concept and not have everything be completely over the top and insane?

 

[strafer]

Claire?

 

[plagiarize]

a friendly reminder:

Any of the three main story branches will be selectable early on in the game, allowing players to see each storyline through to completion before starting another one.

[Deleted member 30609]

For the negative people. It doesn't even come out for 10months. Chill. :lol

If it actually comes out in ten months, they'd want to be content locked by now, surely?

 

[Vamphuntr]

At 2:43 you are controlling a tank. LOL Capcom.

 

[ultron87]

Seriously? Damnit, I was just getting ready to watch it when I finished reading this page. Not watching CG.

It looked like gameplay to me.

 

[Scythian]

Unimpressed, really. First part of the trailer looked awesome, and then began to drift away until Chris began running, taking cover, sliding, etc. Looked boring IMO. Kept in mind this is kind of early, and we'll be seeing more about the game as we get closer to the release date. Interested in how it plays out.
Funny how this mainline entry seems more like a spin-off and Revelations like a step in the right direction.

 

[AwesomeSauce]

HELLL YEAHHHH THAT TRAILER WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loved RE4 and RE5. That co-op was awesome with my buddy, best co-op experience I've had this gen.

Man, I am so hyped for this!!!!!!

 

[Gravijah]

this is like 2003-era gamefaqs level of strawmanning dude

it's seraphinianus, just check his post history.

 

[ColonelColon]

Holy shit, Leon just killed that zombie with an axe.

 

[Special J]

is this the same engine re5 used? i think it looks worse than re5 (aside from the cutscenes, which still look great to me).

worse? how in the hell.

how does such a cool trailer filled with cameos from RE past leave people disappointed holy shit. some people are just eternally bitter.

 

[MichaelEM3]

That was fucking rad.
As someone that likes the Resident evil of old and new, it looked like a perfect blend.

So hyped.

 

[Tambini]

The Leon section looked amazing.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

Claire?[/QUOTE]

That looks nothing like Claire and the press release already confirmed the partners are new.

[quote="TenshiOni, post: 34405246"]That was fucking rad.

Serious question: How exactly is it a blend? Where in that trailer did you see anything indicative of a [I]blend[/I]?

I just wanted more RE4/RE5, not Gears of War.

...

Don't use that concept.

 

[Vire]

Down? What were you watching? They looked on par to better than RE5 to me.

Looks pretty rough in a few spots in the trailer.

 

[Rpgmonkey]

Leon section looks awesome and got me REALLY pumped. Chris and the other guy kinda put a damper on things, but for what they are they still looked pretty darn good.

I'm in.

 

[Sadist]

LEON!!! His scenario looks a lot more interesting.

And what, was that... Ashley? Hory shit

 

[Team Klimt]

At the end of the trailer: "PC version to follow at a later date"

YES

 

[Vamphuntr]

Turret level confirmed

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

OP says you can.

You're right, I saw this:

"Sources tell us Chris and Leon will have seperate stories in the game that will eventually overlap in some capacity."

And I read that as you play as both of them in the story and their paths overlap.

I glossed over the Ada paragraph because I don't care that much for her.

So, I take it back. Good job, Capcom. I'm just gonna play Leon's and pretend Chris' doesn't exist, probably! Well, no, I will play Chris' story but it's nice to know if it's as bad as it looks you can just forget about it and have Leon's story without it being forced on you.

 

[RedSwirl]

The trailer has me intrigued and optimistic but...

That same report suggests this game is being styled after both Resident Evil 4 and 5, attempting to find a middle ground between horror and action.

Please, less RE5, more RE4. In fact, really the only thing RE5 even added to the franchise was unnecessary co-op and a shittier inventory system. I hope to God the inventory system is more like 4.

Tense single-player and co-op action all set against a constant theme of horror.

What I strongly hope is that one of the campaigns is single player and the other co-op. What ruined RE5 for so many people was that Capcom designed it for co-op to the detriment of the singleplayer.

 

[Grisby]

I think it should be accepted that mainline RE games iare never going to go back to being completely survival horror but instead try to be a blend ala Dead Space.

Which is fine with me and all but the animations just looked so stiff, like getting into cover and all that. Leon's little breakdancing spin shoot move looked neat but also completely ridiculous.
