The huge issue with Gangster Jake is the lack of any sort of gun that allows for melee setup of any kind, and no hand-to-hand. The knife is next to useless in Mercs.
Either I'm doing something very wrong with all the other characters or something really right with Helena (Officer) & Jake (Gangster), because with those two I have my highest scores.
^ Honestly, Chris's wasn't too terrible I thought (keeping in mind you only drive as Chris half the time, haven't tried Piers' half). The snowmobiles were meh, but again not awful. Far from good, but not the worst. Jake and the motorcycle though... I wanted to break necks. I'm never playing that part as Jake again. Sherry all the way because then I don't have to drive.
As Sherry you got nothing to do, every now and again a few motorbikes drive near you but they literally die in seconds even on Professional, then you're just sitting there doing nothing again. You shoot the truck at one point also, tha is it.
I'm pretty sure I died like 20 times with my co-op partner in that scenario simply because of the driving controls. Cranking the analog stick to the right or left to avoid a car, and Jake barely moves. Hell, even making turns, it is literally impossible to make a perfect turn because the game doesn't allow you to turn more than half an inch at a time.
That is the low point of the game for me. Other than that I think it's a great game, but that annoys me above all else, weird elevator QTE included.
Use the brakes....turning is fine.

Anybody else feel that the narrative seems off? It's like, they tried to combine s bond film, a micheal bay film, and your typical zombie/bioterrorism movies together. Though that does give me an idea. Imagine, a more bond like resident evil.

They were trying to mix in Bond film since RE4. Mr Leon Kennedy became a super agent and learned how to do all kind of acrobatic super bullshit. There's a whole bunch of James Bondish things in RE4 and RE5 was a continuation of that trend.
Back to RE6. I forgot to mention how ridiculous the chinook chase was, in Jake's scenario. It's an example of a good idea which could look totally awesome but was realized in such retarded way, that I couldn't help but feel retarded playing it. We have to shoot each helicopter for like friggin 10 min straight and than Ustanak conveniently jumps to a next one. It becomes totally unbelievable after the shit just goes on and on. Were those choppers even friendly or Neo-Umbrella's? Doesn't matter because their pilots were obviously just a bunch of suicidal morons.
Rather than doing such poor gameplay the scene should have been made into a cinematic. But that pretty much goes for all chase sequences in the game.
Here's a very useful video about the counters. It's definitely easy to do if there's no lag, but I'm gonna have to practice some more on doing it in Mercs.

Terribly designed section for Sherry.
It's incredibly awkward, especially when playing without a co-op partner. You just sit there and drum your fingers, waiting for your turn to do something. Although, compared to having to drive as Jake, I don't feel right complaining, haha.
A lot of the co-op partner parts seem absolutely awful. Its almost as if they wanted to make it single player but they were unable to.
Spoiler:
During Leon's final fight with Simmons, when you're fighting him with Ada, Helena gets to do jack shit. She literally has to stand there and just watch the whole thing. Control doesn't even switch over to Ada for 2nd player.
