They have to be dazed first, then you'll get a button prompt for a melee attack. Just hold the button down to charge it.

So does the CCP work pretty well and is it worth it for games like RE?
It's worth it.
Hopefully MGS3D's retail release has a framerate faster than a brothel on Mardi Gras. That was a bad analogy.

There are staggers but its not like RE4. Plus in major action segments there are just too many enemies on screen, taking the time to stun one is not a good strategy, it just becomes about pure crowd control buy unloading with everything you got while running away. RE4 is all about crowd control with strategic shooting and maneuvering. Its still fun but a step backward in the combat department IMO.

Taking a break, finished chapter 3 and played one Raid mission. I don't have much of a history with the franchise (my dad played them and I played some of the earlier ones and RE4 and RE5 for a few hours each). Really enjoying the single player, co-op, all around production values, and of course, it looks beautiful. It has me really excited for the 3DS' future.
Mercs is my top played with around 100 hours so I'll be curious as to how many hours I end up with in Rev.

I just had my first taste of raid mode, I just wanted to try it out. OMG, I am going to be in love. Raid mode may end up my favorite thing about the game.

This is simply not true. Crowd control in this game takes a lot more strategy and environmental awareness than RE4. For one you have to keep more distance as the range of the Ooze is vastly greater than that of a standard ganado. Second, preparing a stun move is critical when dealing with larger crowds. In RE4 it was enough to get a kneeshot, move in and melee since there was no charging time for the melee. In Revelations crowd control is a lot harder and relies on good planning. Melees can be amazingly helpfull when executed efficiently.
It's definetly a change from RE4-5 Mercenaries, but after getting the hang of it, it works just as well, if not better in certain instances, as it isn't a easily exploitable as before.
It helped,
because she wouldn't run away if you didn't.
You can also run away and if you get to the last room you meet Parker, then you can do all the previous rooms with him.
Don't know if it's a bug.
My problem with that is that she can't follow you, like all enemies, they can't open doors etc.

Joined a random yesterday to go over Raid Mode. He was level 1 and started in the first chapter and we wound up going over all the chapters up until 7. It was pretty fun, but not as fun as Mercs. I thought it was a bit on the easy side (we beat every stage on our first try and got an S ranking in all of them) although I'm sure later chapters will pick up in difficulty (I'm not sure what level the difficulty was set on, it was chasm which I believe is normal?)
Thank you akimbo, add your tags here (and a location would be nice for lagless action):

Wait till you unlock the bonus stage. That's where the real party's at.

Anyone in Europe or Japan manage to get a Streetpass hit for this in particular? If so, what was the max amount of hits you could get at a single time? Just wondering
I couldn't put this game down last night. I kept saying to myself, "Ok, one more Episode", but the game had me hooked. Often found myself just in awe with how gorgeous this game is (even if their is no mouth animation when they talk). The game just looks so amazing graphically and I'm loving the sound work and music thus far.
For me, Revelations feels like the perfect blend of classic and more recent Resident Evil games. The exploration bits on the ship are just amazing and everything from the exploration, atmosphere, puzzle solving, etc... It all feels very reminiscent of the older games. Even the more action oriented sections have a nice dose of tension that really keeps you on guard. Just so many awesome moments and I'm only about half-way through.
Unlocked Raid Mode, but didn't know "how" to unlock it until I figured it our right before I was done for the night. So I decided to give it a try real quick online and wow, the other guy and I got out asses handed to us. He was level 5, but with me being a level 1 I felt like I was barely doing damage to the monsters in the mission he chose. We got up to a boss room and that's where we met our fate...twice. Loved it though and I can't wait to put many hours into Raid. I feel like I'm going to enjoy this mode a lot more than Mercenaries from what I played.

There just something so fulfilling about Raid Mode!!!

I was stuck on the first boss until I figured out a cheeky way of keeping it at bay...
This made it a bit easier, but it was still tense as hell. I really regretted how I had my weapon upgrades set up for that section, I've been much more mindful of them since then...
I've since done the second boss and entered the Bilge. If I were off work, I'd probably complete the game in a single sitting, sleep be damned - but alas! Here I am
The game is absolutely amazing by the way. I haven't even touched Raid mode yet. If you're on the fence, get off it..
I used all of the cannisters on him, then went back upstairs to the room where you first release him. Wait for him to come in the room, fire off a shot or two then jump out of the window before he gets to you -- unlike the Ooze zombies, he can't climb out of the window, so he goes all the way around via the door, when he reaches you just jump back inside the room and repeat. If you've got a stock of BOW grenades and regular grenades, it'll work even quicker.

Wow the
in Chapter 5 was just terrible. And it lagged like crazy. Ugh.

Lagged? Do you mean dragged? Because, I didn't experience any performance lag in that section.
Also,
those are definitely the worst enemies in the game. You can one-hit them with a rifle, though.

Holy fucking shit this game is amazing.
Certainly got that feeling when I tried it. With only so much ammo around us there was such a strong feeling of hopelessness as we were just surrounded by incoming waves and a very persistent boss. I can see it becoming very fulfilling, by not only completing it, but also being able to keep all your spoils. We had some nice drops in the game I played, so it hurt losing out on them in the end.
Quick question about ammo in Raid Mode: Is it always available for both players? I noticed that even though I picked up an ammo crate, my partner was able to pick it up as well.
How'd you order a Circle Pad Pro from Amazon, or did you mean that you ordered the game from Amazon and got the CPP elsewhere?
Anyone else absolutely floored by the visuals in this game? In general, I haven't been all that impressed with the visuals produced by your average 3DS title. Mario was lovely, of course, but most games gave me the impression of a super charged PSP.
Revelations, though? Absolutely incredible. This is a game that would not look out of place on PS3 or 360 (at least with a few minor improvements).
The lighting, shader usage, animation, etc. are all top notch. It FEELS solid and looks like a very recent game. Honestly, I can't think of any game on the Wii with such elaborate shader work. The fact that it sports AA in 2D mode is a cherry on top.
The only disappointment I have is the fact that all of the cutscenes are simply video clips. I was really hoping they would take the realtime route. I also noticed that, while playing, character mouths are not animated at all.
Still, the overall visual package is outstanding and suggests the 3DS to be more capable than I had expected. Great to see!

Have you been reading the thread?
I wasn't suggesting that nobody else had discussed it, rather, just a way to open a discussion on it.
Most of the thread that I've seen involves either Raid mode or the CPP, though.
Just added myself to the list. Also added everyone listed to my 3DS. Look forward to doing some Raid Mode runs.

When walking through the caverns, it felt like I was looking at a portable version of Skyrim, complete with light shafts, blowing wind and particles everywhere. I couldn't believe how beautiful the surroundings looked.
Also, the cut-scenes aren't truly stereoscopic 3D, as the characters aren't dimensional, but rather cardboard cutouts surrounded by 3D environments. No complaints though. Still looks great.
I feel that's a problem than almost every game I've played recently has.
Gears 3, Alan Wake, etc.
It's definitely NOT a problem with all games, but it is frustrating when it occurs.
In the case of RE:R they basically jacked up the gamma which results in washed out colors.
