I've opened up the thread, since the game is now in folks hands. Remeber those Spoiler Tags though folks. Remember them well.

[xfactor]

I'll start off by talking about the non-spoiler stuffs first, concerning the game structures

- The game is divided into chapters, with sub chapters.
- There are checkpoints littered in between chapters, sub chapters and within the sub chapters itself
- There are files in the games, but you can only read them on the spot.
- There are also supplement articles which you can read from the main menu. I have only 2 articles at the moment, so I guess I'll get more as I proceed further.
- The first article is a RE timeline, while the other is BSAA (its establishment is actually quite interesting). The articles are about 40 pages long
- A paragraph is shown from the RE timeline article during the loading time. The 'timeline' progress as you progress in the game
- You can unlock figurines by purchasing them from the main menu. They are the same as those in RE4
- In between the chapters or after you died, you can access the trade menu, whereby you can organise the items between the 2 characters, purchase weapons, upgrade weapons and sell stuffs like treasures
- to operate the stationary weapon, you operate it like a normal weapon (hold right shoulder button and press)

If you already watched the leak live feed, trust me. You're STILL missing a lot, as the bulks of the plots are shown through the documents and the Library.

I am just at the start of chapter 3. The bike chase at the end of chapter 2 was amazing even though I was slightly disappointed at the El Gigante boss fight that happened after. As I had suspected you only fight him with the mounted gun with some occasional QTE sequences.

I don't think it's as good as RE4 so far, hopefully the later bosses will be a bit more creative.

Chapter 1-1

Spoiler:

Couldn't help but feel that the villagers were a lot easier to kill compared to the demo, maybe the demo was just tuned up a notch ..

spoiler to end of Chap 3-3

Spoiler:

I like the way they show the insanity of Irving. From unleashing the Uroboro virus upon the BSAA as a setup, to unleashing the bat BOW on Chris and Sheva, and the El GIgante BOW, to turning crazy and injectng the control plaga into his body.

Then the crazy Plaga plot with the Plaga type 2 and 3? Whoa.

[A-J]

so uh ..

Chapter 4

Spoiler:

show spoiler

Just started on chapter 4... doing both an amateur and veteran run tonight. Veteran I'm doing solo and Amateur is being done in split-screen co-op with J_Man757. I'll technically have two playthroughs done by tomorrow afternoon, most likely.

And man, I love earning trophies on this sucka.

end of chapter 6-2
Spoiler:

I'm now pursuing Wesker on the boat, where Wesker have his flashback. Whoa...Wesker was manufactured? That's quite a plot twist there.

And then Wesker was making use of Jill's antibody due to the dormant T-virus which she got from nemesis in Raccoon city incident, to create the Uroboro virus...WHOA.

and concerning Licker...
Spoiler:

show spoiler

Apparently its not the same licker as those in Raccoon City, as this licker is called Licker beta. I guess there's some form of modification from the plaga or uroboros virus, and they definitely look muscular than the previous games.

That clears up why he would go through the trouble to keep Jill alive from the start. Man I really want to play this, all these news files that people skipped over really seem to add to the plot.

Thnaks, that cheers me up alot. I didnt watch it all mind you, but i just happened to see a few very key cutscenes and battles, and a friend spoiled the ending so i ended up watching that, and i was so mad at myself thinking i had ruined the whole plot, gosh i am impatient. This cheers me up alot, even though i only watched a few areas shown, im glad to know theres alot of depth to teh story and game.

As well, its living the game that makes it real, it isnt know until you youre self see it

Wow, Re 5 seems massive, and im going to avoid any further spoilers to keep it that way, lol, ill post my prgress here when i get it next week.

[A-J]

dude, the library has 12 case files, each well over 30 pages long lol, trust me, you're going to be reading the crap out of the plot
