Just saw the Quicklook... so this game is THAT horrible, huh? Didn't expect that, even after 5 was mediocre.

 

[News Bot]

Saw this on Kotaku and LOL'd:

Unfortunately for this commenter, I thought RE3 was fantastic -- even with Nikolai and Carlos. Nemesis is still the best series antagonist. Utsanak is a poor, poor substitute.

The BH3 comment is utter horse shit. I don't understand how that game actually gets the criticism it does. It takes everything that made BH2 great and improves upon them, meanwhile adding new mechanics which added to the overall fun. It is also the only game for me that has truly given a bleak, desolate and terrifying atmosphere.

What kind of answer do you expect?

 

[MiamiWesker]

Eh I wouldn't say the hate is unwarranted although the 3s and 4s are ridiculous. What bothers me about the game is that, for a Capcom game, everything feels super janky. Even the Capcom games that are considered "bad" i.e. Lost Planet 2, are very polished and technically impressive but RE6 just feels...sloppy as hell. I'm enjoying it but it's jarring to go from super technically polished games like Dead Rising, the Lost Planet games, Resident Evil 5 etc. It's as if RE6 was made by a western studio.

Outside of the camera what exactly feels sloppy to you?

More like:

Resident Evil 1 - Ground-breaking
Resident Evil 2 - Improving on the last one
Resident Evil 3 - Improving on the last one

Resident Evil 4 - Ground-breaking
Resident Evil 5 - Boring and repetitive rehash of ideas
Resident Evil 6 - Capcom forced lobotomy on all employees.

Please kill me!

2nd Chapter with Leon: So Zombies can teleport from nowhere when lighning strikes? And the can jump at you and not even the shotgun can stop that attack.

It's a fucking joke!

When they're in the animation you have to roll out of the way, stay on the ground it's easier to get head shots right after they fall on their faces. I don't know if quick shots work.

You have good taste, sir.

Except you think Chris has the worst campaign in RE6, so... maybe not, haha.

You can also counter, right?

No no, I think Jake has the worst campaign. I'd actually say Chris was my favorite due to its consistent quality, whereas Leon has its ups and downs.

Then, I take it back. Best taste confirmed, as I also think the same.

 

[Frillen]

Played some Leon chapters now, and I'm impressed. Tons of variety and thrilling gameplay. One thing I do hate though, is that a shotgun blast can't cancel out the enemy's jumping attack.

I guessed that already but it's completely BS that you can shoot them down with the shotgun. I mean what's the physical law behind this?

That's more videogame logic isn't it?

 

[Ledsen]

A lot of "yup" basically. The game looks and sounds awful, and I was really looking forward to it.

The reception is pretty mixed. So someone might say "nope". Ultimately, nothing will be discussed with a question like that.

 

[Lucent]

Damn. B rank still with 92,720. Had a 45 combo. A rank must be 100,000+ =l

Did it with Helena. Her loadout is fun.

 

[Sojgat]

If you time the dodge right, the jumping ones usually end up on top of me.

 

[Amalthea]

Since when? Since zombies can teleport trough thunder, which happen to hit only trees next to Leon?

 

[Papercuts]

The Catacombs merc map is really fun. Ended up getting an S rank on my second try, rank 24 on the leaderboard right now and I still could do muuuuuch better. Really wish the preorders weren't off that mode.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

word of advice: don't walk on the left side of the bridge on Chris Chapter 2 if you want to avoid an otherwise unavoidable death.

I know, I know spoilers, but I'm trying to get people to avoid as many of Capcom's dumbass game decisions as possible.

 

[george_us]

The animation, the texture work, and some of the character models compared to previous games all stand out to me.

 

[Space Runaway]

For Leon's Campaign, I recommend failing the

meat grinder/shredder

qte in chapter 4. Awesome death sequence when you do.

 

[Snapshot King]

Difficulty suggestions? Started with Chris on Pro and got SMOKED in the demo area. Ive beaten all the prior games on their max difficulties, should I bump it down to Veteran or Normal?

 

[MiamiWesker]

Oh graphical stuff. There are moments where it looks really amazing like a certain section in Leon's chapter 2.

 

[Riposte]

How is gun fire on Professional? Does it make cover mandatory, like it is in a game like Mass Effect?

 

[News Bot]

As so-so as the story is, I'm really liking the files. There's actually an explanation for why the J'avo disintegrate when they die.

News bot, please help me on difficulty suggestion. Should I bump down to Vet or Normal? Pro is proving a little much.

Yeah just mainly graphical things. Gameplay wise, outside of the camera, I've been having some fun.

I started on Veteran and am really surprised how much damage these damn Zombies do to me when they grab, but I didn't have any skills at the time so I should be able to remedy that a bit. I'm gonna just stick with this for now, since I thought the demo was too easy.

 

[gconsole]

Just finish Leon chapter 1 with friend. Got a blast. The game is just fun. Those reviewer is seriously sick and im not kidding. Now i feel a lot more relief playing this game. I thought its gonna be bad ...

 

[News Bot]

I played the game on Normal, but I heard Veteran is challenging without being too... ball-busting. Can't speak from experience though, I've only played Normal and Amateur so far.

 

[Dance Inferno]

Looks like people who pre-loaded the PS3 version of the game are having issues getting it to boot up, and apparently they cannot play against disc-based players. Capcom is working on a fix for this.

Edit: Seems to be limited to Europe.

 

[MiamiWesker]

I am playing on veteran and I am dying plenty of times and am on low health almost always. A lot of the time its the damn camera that ends up messing me up but I'll manage. It seems like a nice difficulty for a good challenge but not stuck on a section for an hour kind of difficulty.

 

[Mega Man's Electric Sheep]

What's amateur like? I want my first time through the game to be as painless as possible, but not TOO boring, lol

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Just started the Leon campaign and I like it so far.

 

[ULTROS!]

This game is kinda janky.

Leon Chapter 1:

Spoiler

After Leon got run over by an ambulance, he obviously falls down under the wheel and says "guess we're not going that way".

 

[Dance Inferno]

What's amateur like? I want my first time through the game to be as painless as possible, but not TOO boring, lol

Apparently Amateur does all QTEs for you, so if you hate those it might be a good difficulty to go with.

 

[Lucent]

What's amateur like? I want my first time through the game to be as painless as possible, but not TOO boring, lol

Easier than normal. And I guess the QTE's are automated or something. At least that's what I think Dusk Golem listed earlier.

EDIT: Beaten by a character not even in the game. D=

 

[MarshMellow96]

I think I'm playing with camera speed on 3 and aim speed on 5. Turning camera speed right down didn't do anything for me. The camera still gets a little jumpy indoors.

 

[Astral]

RE.net has the audacity to tell me my date of birth is incorrect.

Pfft. Jill >>>> Sherry.

I'd say go for Normal then. Amateur is a breeze.

 

[Lucent]

Pfft. Jill >>>> Sherry.

lol. I haven't played the game beyond the tutorial and some mercs with each character, so I can't really say how I feel about Sherry beyond her demo sections (which I liked her character there), so I can't say much on her. But I prefer girls with short blonde hair. =P

But yeah I already miss Jill. She looked great in RE5 imo. Going through the DLC with her and Chris was great.

Is there a way to change to a laser sight where you can see the beam? I found the bit to change color but I'm not finding it. I feel like I've seen gameplay where they have it but maybe I'm high.

[The Frankman]

Most polarizing game of all time.

hi

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Being able to move and shoot is a welcome addition.

We don't want you to, thank you very much

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

How does the Split Screen Co-op work between console versions? I assume you can sign-in to XBL with both GTs and earn achievements for both players as you play, but can you do the same for the PS3 version? Also, does it make a save file for both players when you save, or just for P1?

Can I get an answer on this? I'd like to go to the store soon and get it for PS3, but if I can't do split screen where we both get our own saves (and hopefully trophies too) then I'm not gonna even bother.

 

[hamchan]

word of advice: blah

Intentionally spoiling the game for people is not cool.
