Cacpcom

 

[Chindogg]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

 

[Oregano]

The background image looks like a Woody Harrelson shop.

 

[Broritos]

What a revelaiton.

 

[Doctor Rover]

Wars he covered.

 

[Mediking]

I guess you could say... we all should FLANK WEST away from the game.

...

Sorry.

But hey. OP's avatar is hype as heck.

 

[Graphics Horse]

Flanks a lot

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

The URL still calls him Frank though.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Was he the main character of Dead Rising 4?

 

[Dark Ninja]

Captain Marvel still looking great

 

[Axass]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

Sure but we're talking of a proper noun, everybody knows how to spell Frank, even in Japan.

 

[Azure Dream]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

It's well-established by now what it should be.

 

[JayEH]

It's a typo, nothing to do with that.

 

[mas8705]

Who can forget about Flank West? He was always my favorite character in the Daed Rising series. And who could forget that mode when Flank turned into a zombie in "Flank Rising!"

Such an underrated character if you ask me.

Spoiler

sarcasm hurts

 

[The Dear Leader]

Hank East when?

 

[FSLink]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

We know. It's just funny. Especially with a company notorious for typos.

 

[Mediking]

Captain Marvel still looking great

She looks great but the graphics in this game are still subpar.

 

[lucebuce12]

But hey. OP's avatar is hype as heck.

*clears throat*

 

[sixteen-bit]

The background image looks like a Woody Harrelson shop.

Frank looks like Mel Gibson.

I take that back, Frank looks like hank azaria!

Is Frank West the most generic white guy in games?

 

[KingBroly]

Captain Marvel still looking great

Captain Malver, you mean


And none of the Marvel characters have this problem

 

[Deleted member 126221]

Meh. Would've preferred Prank West honestly.

 

[Dark Ninja]

She looks great but the graphics in this game are still subpar.

Looks fine in gameplay to me. The backgrounds are really nice, you can see them in this new gameplay video Max uploaded https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwyIMDPtFvI&t=0s

 

[RoyaleDuke]

NOOOOOOOO.

What did they get rid of TJ rotolo too?

I wish DR3 and 4 didn't exist because of how badly they ruin the franchise.

This only further proves my point.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Captain Marvel still looking great

she looks like she hasn't slept in weeks

Captain Malver, you mean


And none of the Marvel characters have this problem

 

[JayEH]

NOOOOOOOO.

He's the voice in this game.

 

[cordy]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

This dude lmao.

 

[RoyaleDuke]

He's the voice in this game.

Wait, so they have the voice of Frank West but not his actual model?

Like... that isn't Frank West.

I don't know who the fuck that is supposed to be.

 

[Asd202]

I swear Cacpcom you are doing this on purpose.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Reminds me a bit of that MST3K tough guy name joke.

"Flank Steakhard!"

 

[Zap Rowsdower]

Engrish aside, at least its the actual Frank and not that imposter from 4.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Wait, so they have the voice of Frank West but not his actual model?

Like... that isn't Frank West.

I don't know who the fuck that is supposed to be.

Nobody looks like themselves in this game.

 

[Tempy]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

Writing it in romaji as FLANK is still incorrect.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Malvel vs Cacpcom Infinite.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

Translators note : keikaku means plan

 

[DorkyMohr]

Jim West

 

[Masterspeed]

Captain Marvel still looking great

I think she looks terrible, what's going on with that head? She's got like 6 inches of forehead above her eyes.

 

[ffejeromdiks]

Was he DR4 frank at first or something?

 

[Zero-ELEC]

I think she looks terrible, what's going on with that head? She's got like 6 inches of forehead above her eyes.

she has a ᵗᵉᵉᶰʸ ᶠᵃᶜᵉ

Was he DR4 frank at first or something?

no the joke is that his name is spelled wrong

 

[Jackano]

Guys you remember that in Japanese the R and L sounds combine and can be interchanged right?

Writing it in romaji as FLANK is still incorrect.

You're both right IMO, but what Chindogg said could be part of the explanation, I don't think it's a straight unlikely typo.

 

[Ferrio]

Are we sure that's his name and not a command?

 

[Demonfang]

Fer-lank westu

 

[L Thammy]

what if his name was always FLANK but they translated it wrong from the original japanese

 

[Tempy]

You're both right IMO, but what Chindogg said could be part of the explanation, I don't think it's a straight unlikely typo.

It's a damn typo.

 

[ffejeromdiks]

no the joke is that his name is spelled wrong

Lmao shit, I guess my brain was autocorrecting it, I didn't even notice.

 

[katsubento]

OK, now that's embarrassing.

 

[Kuraudo]

Clearly Capcom are trying to differentiate between the Frank from Dead Rising and the Frank from Dead Rising 4 by renaming one of them.

 

[VeeP]

Captain Marvel still looking great

Her whole head looks.... wrong? Her hair, face. Costume looks dope tho.

 

[pinkurocket]

Yea obviously he's flanking from the east in that picture.

 

[mreddie]

This game is a trilogy of errors
