They're different kinds of games, pretty much. Where RE4 places a lot of emphasis on precise shot placement and skillful execution of melee attacks this game places more emphasis on creating distance between yourself and unloading an ungodly amount of ammo in them until they drop. I'd say RE4 is harder, but this game is more annoying. If that makes sense

Tip for new players, the weakpoints to set up melee moves for the bulk of the enemies are
The arms, not the head
I would also like to know this, as I am about to get the game on PC myself.

I am. Searching for games to join leaves me with nothing.

You're playing it on PC? I was tempted to get it on PC (love me some KBM, and I have a decent rig), but there's no boxed version. :\
I was going to pick it up on Wii U instead.
As with the 3DS version, you may have much better luck starting a game and waiting for others to join, rather than trying to join a game yourself.

You gonna get killed if you try to run through unknown territory. Enemies on corners, enemies from vets on your 6.

I think RE6 is a considerably better game, and certainly more fun to play but many disagree. Don't want to discourage you from getting Revelations with my RE6 love
Both certainly provide a lot of long time value though. Revelations has Raid mode which is an incredible time sink, and Resie 6 has mercs and the other multiplayer modes.

RE6 is actually a good game once you realize it's made by Outbreak creator and is esentially Outbreak 3. Revelations feels low budged but is little more in line with older RE while 6 is push forward, kill, splosions, save your partner, boss, another boss, splosions! But it has good characters and voice acting unlike Revelations.

I had no clue it was by the Outbreak creator, no wonder I love 6 so much. Outbreak 1/2 are my favorite games in the series aside from 4/Remake. I wish Capcom would re-release them with true online. Incredible games.

Wow; did not know that about RE6; I loved OB1/2, they are my favorite alongside 2/4/REmake. so I will definitely have to get 6 at some point then! But I will get REV for now! Thanks you guys!
I also agree with ricochetguro; if Capcom would re-release OB1/2 I'd buy them in a heartbeat.

I still have a copy of OB 2. Good games, ahead of the online boom imo. I loved RE6 for the record but also love revelations. It's hard for me to dislike any RE game minus just a couple.
post your Steam page and I'll add you
I don't see any reason to pick up multiplats on Wii U (or any console for that matter) over PC. It's a shooter, so mouse/keyboard works so much better than a pad. Plus a buddy and I had 60 viewers last night streaming some raid mode S ranks

Online in Outbreak file 2 (because original didn't have online in Europe) was my one of first and most memorable online experiences.
And most hilarious with the in game voice options. Like when other players wanted gun or herb from you.
"Kevin?"
"No"
Kevin?!"
"No"
"Kevin"
"No"
"Kevin!"
"NO!"
God, so many moments that game had.
Do it Capcom, HD rerelease please.
What the fuck? How does this make any kind of sense?
Yeah, the Outbreak creator made the game. All right? So what? I should praise it because of his involvement? Game is absolutely nothing like Outbreak in any conceivable way (other then having online play). Outbreak was classic RE in an online atmosphere. RE6 is the complete opposite of classic RE in general... yeah, I guess that basically makes it Outbreak 3.
EDIT: Would love a HD release of Outbreak (with all the scenarios bundles into one game). Games were crazy ahead of their time. Excellent in SP and MP.

Believe it would just be like Left 4 Dead where other players don't see your modded appearance. No one else gets to see Lightning slaughter zombies ;-;

I'm not back home for another week and a bit but people should add me for Resie 6/Revelations fun. Still bummed all my PS3 Mercs experience doesn't transfer through Resienet. Capcom please!

People praising Eiichiro Sasaki for BH6 because he directed Outbreak is a bit disappointing. Outbreak itself was a complete failure of a game botched from the get-go, and it's very possible that he was responsible for that. Judging from his shit ideas ("every time Ada has appeared it has been a different clone") he's the absolute last person who should be allowed to have any involvement with the series.
Thankfully I can run this game quite well on my laptop. The true portable experience of Revelaitons!
I find Scarmiglione(one w/ shields) in this game to be very easy to kill when you have a 3000 power Magnum. 1 shot to the leg and 2 to the chest, and they are gone. I remember being killed by these guys a lot back on the 3DS. this time I came prepared. lol
A lot better. Actually fun to play. I love the Raid mode, it's why I re-bought it on the Wii U.

How was it botched from the get go? The Outbreak games to me were very much ahead of the curve and fixed a lot of the series's niggling control issues that had persisted for far too long. I don't really feel Resie 6 has much in common with Outbreak other than some unique coop elements and the ability to move and shoot though.
Don't get me wrong, I like Outbreak quite a bit. It's a good game at the core and is arguably one of the better games in the series from a creative perspective. But it's just not as good as it should've been.
20 scenarios planned and developed. Only five released (and another five later). No online in Europe. Absolutely no optimization. Poor netcode, etc. These are issues I doubt a competent director would've let slide past. For every step forward it made for the series, it took two steps back for itself as a game. As it stands, it's an incomplete game with great ideas but sketchy execution.

Ah, see where you were coming from now although "complete failure of a game" doesn't seem to mesh completely with your followup
A lot of those issues seem like things that would be out of his control though, especially the lack of online play in Europe (didn't know about that) I remember the game running well enough online, although it should be noted at the time I was amazed just at the fact that I was playing a Resident Evil game online
Most frustrating thing about the release was the lack of headset support, the commands just didn't do it.The other ten were actually finished?

I forgot to give this game props for the epilogue.
You know telling us what every character us up to at the end of the game is all we ask for.
But aside from this and RE3 off the top of my head, it's just something capcom doesn't like to do.

Yeah, I exaggerated a bit.
The other ten were finished, and quite a bit of their data is on the disks that were released. A giant Neptune, at least one other Tyrant, G-Birkin, dead Miguel, etc.

Shame :/ Would be nice if they one day gave the premise another go but that's rather unlikely I suppose.
Don't want to make a thread for it so I'll ask here. Are the gamecube versions of Resie 2/3/CV worth picking up? I have 2/3 on the PS1(and psn) and CV on PSN. Didn't know if they had any interesting extras.

Not that I'm aware of, but I do think they had the awesome Type C controls where you used the pressure-sensitive R-button to move. I really liked that setup.
Also, anyone that wants to play Raid Mode on PC, add me: http://steamcommunity.com/id/rocketdarkness/
I'm only level 4 or so, but I do intend to make my way through all the levels.
TGO
Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
Outbreak has the best theme music in the series, also best intro.
I have 2 and 3 on cube and they are just straight ports nothing new, unless you prefer the cubes controller then just stick with what you have. For cv i dont know.

straight ports & if you have the CV HD then the GCN version is a waste of time, I believe it was ported from PS2's CVX.

I am curious to know will there be upcoming DLC for this game? Or does this game have on-disc DLC like Resident Evil 6? Also for those who are aware of RE.NET Online Events, do you think this game will have events like Resident Evil 6? I can't think of a potential event in my head. I suppose it will be mostly related to Raid Mode rather than Campaign.
Beat the ghost ship level
ahhh. Will be a little while before I can do that. That will be a nice reward when I finally accomplish that. Don't think I even beat that level fully on 3DS either.
In the 3DS version,
