Resident Evil 6

Capcom - Making Player Lower Standards to Avoid Disappointment.

Is that why Revelations is a great game with horror elements? Capcom do listen to fans as hard as it is to believe for some fans.

I wouldn't know. I haven't been able to play it yet. Buying a new console for a single game I'll probably like isn't my style.

I'm liking what I'm hearing though. Although I kinda hope for a AI 'Go home and make me a sandwhich, Pierce' option to get them the hell away being able to toggle the AI should help. I still think forced co-op is a poor choice - you're never going to have everyone able or wanting to play co-op, and making them isn't always the best choice - but if you have to have the damned partner theme continue, then you need to make the AI continue. Yes, I know some folks find Sheva's AI awesome. I didn't, and a lot of other people didn't, including some reviewers and such. And while I'm not the best player in the world, I'm not that shitty either. RE4 is simple enough on Normal - I found RE5 with Sheva unplayable on Easy. It was one of the first things Capcom talked about with RE6, that the AI was better, so obviously they felt the reaction to Sheva was negative.

I also like the sound of the exploration. It's obviously optional, and probably just a the odd extra section to go and get an extra gun or more supplies...frankly, I would not be surprised if you explore the entire game carefully and only add on an extra hour or two to the game, if that. But at least it's there. Hopefully, assuming there idea of exploring isn't clicking around a room after you've murdered everything in it. It would be nice to think there's extra scenes, extra snippets of story and files, maybe even game altering events down those paths but I know when to call it a day. I got some exploration. I'll be happy with that, once it's confirmed.

And you people said I was mad to complain! That nothing would ever happen because all Capcom cared about is my money! Well, I stopped giving them my money and now they fucking obey, don't they!? Bow before me, and know I and I alone saved you from RE6 playing like ORC!

Seriously, though, it is nice to see Capcom reacting to some of negative feedback. Now they just need to not bring out Resident Evil 6 - Turbo Director's Delux Edition next Spring with new content that won't be released as DLC so that the day one buyers are shafted and I might start thinking it's a company and not a soulless machine designed to bring about the Apocalypse through fan rage. Of course, RE6 is going a bit too well...maybe it;s time for Even Numbered Game Syndrome to strike, and they re-hire Mikami who cancels it and starts again?

I thought Sheva was much more of a problem than Ashley.

Been a while since I've played RE5 so I can't remember how much trouble I had with Sheva, but this video made me lol.

Never encountered anything that bad I think. Really hope the AI is better in RE6 since I'm not much of an online gamer.

I think it was Dracarys who explained the AI there is, apparently, not at fault - it's the fault of the player for giving her the wrong weapon and putting her on the wrong settings. It's somewhere around page 70 in this thread, I think, if you want to read the full explanation.

And that is "bitching" about it, exactly how? RE6 sucks to you, your opinion. The topic going gone seemed like a shitty topic to me, my opinion. How that triggers the word bitching in your mind is beyond me. If you didn't like criticism, then don't put yourself out there for some. I'm not going to deprive myself of putting out my opinion just because it might scorch your bottom. And my video is shit? Coming from a guy who just had a hissy fit over me calling his topic shitty? Oh aren't you a bright little one.

Well your video was. The quality was terrible and the voice was way off. At least what I said was true. A bright little one? Lol if you wanna call me something grow a set and come out with it. A bright little one lol I aint gay you know that right?

O rly?

I've been thinking more about concerns over RE6's horror content. It seems like the theme Capcom is going for this time around is less horror and more horrific. At RE6's E3 booth, they set up a 9/11-esque "missing persons wall" complete with a few memorial bouquets. We know at least two cities get destroyed in RE6. Chris watches his entire unit get wiped out. Leon has to put down his friend/boss after he gets infected. Another man watches his daughter die. Helena has to betray her principles to save her sister. Jake and Sherry are torn away from each other. Maybe these things aren't jump-out-of-your-seat scary but they sure are horrible.

One thing that disappointed me about the demo when I got to play it was some of the enemies moved very similar to Wesker during his transformation. At least, that's what it felt like. Of the three, I had the most fun with Jake and Chris because the gameplay was right there. Leon's ate a chunk of my time during the 30 minute session, and I had a lot more to see and appointments to keep so I couldn't constantly get back into the long ass lines to get a ticket to go back at a specific time in order to get another 30 minute playthrough.

Outside the booth they had pictures of people as if they were missing. I wanted to stop by where they were getting the pictures taken, but I passed it by when I was on my way to an appointment and never passed by that area again.

Yep. It's a different kind of horror, but it's still horror. "Survival" horror means jump-scares, the odds are stacked against you and resources are limited. This kind of "action/entertainment" horror is all about making it as big and exciting as possible while also making it disturbing and creepy in context. I really like what I've seen so far.

And the fact that shooting the legs off of a J'avo means they sprout wings and fly around with their human upper bodies still intact creeps the hell out of me.

Also, the RE6 wall'o'many awards makes me feel much better about this game so far!

[shanemurphy]

The flying mutation is cool but by far my favorite mutation so far is when you shoot their legs off they grow spider legs and can walk on the roof and jump at you.

[Vito]

LOL at SxT, what a flop.

Bertha damn you for playing the demo. T_T

Likewise, so was your topic. Don't see why it's so hard to swallow for you. And who cares about the quality? Many people, especially over on CU and gfaqs got quite a few lines correct even from the "bad quality". I simply used a noise canceller and figured out 90% of the dialogue itself. I would say a topic about how paint dries and analysis on it would be a lot better than the whining you were on. Oh, and I don't give a rats ass either way, you know that, right?

Nothing says that more than line after line of monotonous text.

You two pop your tampons back in and piss off.

If I understood this correctly, my line was to his "im not gay" claim. So I don't see how my quote has anything to do with the rest of the texts.

Enough. Of. The. Bickering.

Enough. Just stop. You're acting like children, and if that's how people will act, people will be treated and reprimanded like children. Get on topic.
