Online? Just walk up to the blue door in the Raid vestibule to invite or join
For split screen, it's an option on the pause menu, again in the Vestibule

Yup, online co-op!
Its not showing any option when I reach the blue door. Is that because I still haven't downloaded episode 4?

That.... is a good question! There was a patch for online as well, maybe it only downloads for the full game. Not sure. I'd go ahead and get everything, then check for updates

Yeah I imagined about an update, but when I started the game it did not download any.
May be because of episode 4. I'll post here as soon as I finish downloading it.

Raid mode reminds me of multiplayer from 2 different games. It's basically 1, or now 2, person horde mode, but instead of "survive as long as you can" it's just clear X amount of enemies (around 30-40 or so, at least early off). You level up and unlock new weapons and customizable parts, which is the old carrot on a stick approach. This aspect reminds me of the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer, where unlocking new stuff is exciting on its own. Not as deep or random as ME3 mp is, though. It's not bad; fully appreciated if you consider it as an extra to the campaign.
You could always buy just episode 1 which will grant you access to full Raid Mode. I think the episodes standalone are like $6 each.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
Oh man, I didn't know you have to witness the giant's death in order to get Bloodied Gina.
I did the event several times. I missed one day and it's all over
I don't know that we even know how this actually works yet? Do we?

I haven't even been prompted for the online co-op update.
I did see some people mention on the re forums that they joined a hacker that killed the monster with their infinite weapons and got the medal next to that objective because of it. The peeps on there don't seem like the most reliable ones but seeing how crap this event was in general, I wouldn't be surprised it would actually work like that.
Just click the blue door in the Raid lobby.

I can't access online co-op neither.
When I go to the blue door, there's nothing to do... no button prompt, anything.
Just downloaded the episode 4 btw (and I have every episode installed already).
XB1 version here btw.

Oh, GREAT! I've just read that XB1 version still has not received it, and there's no time frame... 7 days after the PS4/PC release. Capcom had to shit on the XB1 version somehow, of course!! Amazing...

Nope, you'll miss out on a bunch of stages and characters buying just the first one.

It's still not out? Shit that sucks but I've seen nothing personally.
I'd like an answer to this as well. I bought the ps3 disc version. Is there anything I'm missing by going physical or is it all here?

Regarding the Wesker question, it was the self-administered virus supplied by Birkin to withstand the attack from the Tyrant in BIO1 that infused him with his powers, correct? IIRC the Wesker Children treatment was simply to boost the intellect of already unusually intelligent children, albeit in cases fatally.
Yeah all Capcom keeps saying is "When its ready" and "Sorry for the incoveinence". No time table nothing.

Completed the Omega mission. Died once, but it wasn't that bad, Also completed the last Gauntlet VIII (Hard) mission without dying and very few bullets left. I fully expect to bite it when I try the mission again on Very Hard.
So is that Huge Monster event mission finally over?
So is that Huge Monster event mission finally over?
That virus was used by all of the last thirteen Wesker Children. It was a variant strain of the t-Virus designed to elucidate the Progenitor Virus' ability to create physically and intellectually superior immortal superhumans.
Albert and Alex were the only ones to survive it, while Albert was the only one to become superhuman as a result but failed to gain any intellect boost or immortality. I am hoping at the very least that the virus caused Alex's illness.
What is this supposed to be, exactly?

XB1 online co-op is still not available.
Actually, the copy not being the original was the point. She's much like Robert Angier in The Prestige in this regard. She digitized her mind and memories and then implanted them into Natalia with the intent to kill herself and allow a new version of her to continue on.
Something I like is that this process is basically a digitization of what the Queen Leech achieved with James Marcus in BIO0. Separate entities and the original remained dead, but the original's memories were copied and it could carry on the original's will. I wonder if this was an intentional similarity, like how REV2 uses an enhanced version of BIO0's partner swapping system.

I can't believe I got the (end game spoilers)
really liked the game but
, fuck that
bad ending for not doing the Chapter 3's QTE with Moira, no doubt, this is the dumbest way to punish a player with a bad ending
the ending left me sour, I'm not gonna reply chapter 3 and 4 for the good ending

BIO1's good ending for Jill hinged on whether you waited on Barry coming back to drop a rope.
Resident Evil Revelations 2 will be available for Vita digitally this summer

So is this a form of retcon or a rather unneeded addition? As I understand it, until RE5, the only explanation for Wesker's powers seen in RECV was Birkin's virus, since there was no hint that he had powers prior to this.
In fact, he seemed to be surprised by his 'new' powers himself in Umbrella Chronicles after the scene in question:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K86odRxKnCk#t=2m00
To be fair, REV2's bad ending is extremely dark, wheras the good ending is a spectacular, gameplay-focused feel-good finale you'll otherwise miss out on.
BIO1's bad ending is like "Where did X go? Never mind, I'm sure they got out."
I'll always lament the fact that my first experience with REV2 climaxed with the bad ending due to the game dropping me a too-late hint to switch characters. It would have been better to make the good ending automatic and the bad one the 'secret' one imo.
I'm a little confused now too. There is only one virus involved with the Wesker Project. All of the Wesker Children were just normal children to parents of notable accomplishments. Birkin was charged with developing a t-Virus variant able to create superhumans. This virus was given to all thirteen remaining Weskers in 1998 to weed out the most genetically gifted. Albert survived and became superhuman. Alex survived but did not become superhuman. The rest died.
The goal of the t-Virus Project was to create a weakened strain of the Progenitor Virus capable of adapting to modern humans. The virus the Weskers were injected with in 1998 was the culmination of that plan and should've been completed to elucidate the intellect boost and immortality properties and correct instability, but the Raccoon City incident (including Birkin's death) destroyed that plan and the recovered G-Virus was too incomplete to act as a replacement.

Am I remembering this wrong. I recall reading that the Project W virus was given to their hosts by someone they trusted, that Birkin didn't actually create the virus but just handed it to Wesker, as Birkin was a person Wesker trusted. I might be mis-remembering as it's been a while since I've read RE5's files and it's a bit of a loose memory, but I swear I read that somewhere in RE5. In at least my foggier memory of this, I recall it being said Wesker was given the virus by Birkin, and also that the virus was given to the Wesker Children by those they trusted.
Birkin created the virus and gave it to Wesker not knowing that Spencer was pulling the strings by having him develop it in the first place.

Bought this and Bloodborne about 2 weeks ago, didn't play this becayse Bloodborne occupied all my time until I finished it last friday. Continued on from Episode 1 yesterday and WOAH. Should have started with this first. Finished all of episode 2 and 3 and this is a really, really good resident evil. Great pacing, good encounter design and actually tense at times. For only 25 this is an absolute no-brainer for anyone that enjoyed any Resident Evil ever.

Doesnt seem like the last part is translated correctly? Are we getting new characters?
At least they know there's high demand for more content in REV2. Unlike with how they completely ignored that for RE6.

Finished it yesterday.
DAT ENDING.
Holy shit. Best Resident Evil ending ever. Chills all over lol.
To be honest, I would prefer new content for RE6. >_>
I really don't like how grindy Raid mode in REV2 is.
