1.5

[Vixtro]

Sorry if I'm asking too much, but I wanna know how RE1.5 Petition was working at that time. The Petitions were sending to Capcom's spam box?

Quite simply, Capcom want nothing to do with 1.5, to them it was just an unwanted build during the creation of RE2, it's taboo history.

There's not enough interest in 1.5 for Capcom to even care for a start.

Inflames' plan with the petition was to ensure all the signatures were appropriate (basically he would delete all the nonsense signatures like people signing names like "Leon Kennedy" "Chris Redfield" ect. to leave only the signatures that looked proper). After he reached 10,000 of those proper signatures (which he did), he intended to print out the list on paper and make sure it was hand-delivered to proper officials in Capcom Japan through some contact he had that could do so. When he got the signatures, he closed the petition.

He had it planned out pretty well. It wasn't just spamming Capcom's e-mail or anything.

I'm sure Capcom was aware of the petition and interest while it was still going. Bioflames was even featured in at least one magazine back then. But yeah, it's just like Vix said, by that time Capcom considered 1.5 taboo and not worth finishing and releasing (obviously they aren't gonna release a buggy, unfinished game). The Japanese fanbase didn't care much about it, and 10,000 signatures collected online for a couple of years didn't mean anything to them. Was a noble fanbase effort though.

that sucks.He could have a million signitures and they still wouldn't have cared.
It just goes to show you how capcom treats their hardcore fans.Like crap.

At least Inflames and everyone else were dedicated.thats all that matters.

How about the trailer Jerome is doing? Anyone think that will generate some interest? Did you do any "advising" on that project Alzaire? ;)

Hmmm... RE1.5's curse is hitting me pretty hard at this time. So many people bailed out on me on this project, it is nowhere close to my first expectations.
I am kinda depressed
Patient Zero, on the other hand, sounds and looks great

Really? THe screens looked quite promising (I haven't seen the behind the scenes stuff). Is the release date still Oct 31st (I think that was the release date I read about?)?

[imacwesker]

Yes, the video is still scheduled for a Halloween release.
I am working extremely hard to keep this schedule, even if I had to remove/cancel a lot of things. I still hope the RE1.5 fans will like it

I recently updated the Resident Evil 2 article at Wikipedia which should now be a pretty informative and comprehensive read. Thanks to anyone who provided sources in this thread!

Err not one to make a big fuss on an Error but Leon's model in Retail was 701 Triangles not 450 and the zombies (male) were around 407, varying on the different models.

Mikami said 450, so that's what's used on Wikipedia (no original research).
