Operation : Raccoon City Trailer

AHA i knew it. moral choice system!

[Mr. Spencer]

To all those complaining about the animations, don't forget that it's only around 45% complete at this point. Lot more work to do in improving those animations and adding extra polish. I think the finished product should be pretty good.

Don't be so fucking logical!

[valentinesdead?]

Ah, that's interesting. I'm a big fan of "what if's". Always reminds me of the awesome, old-school Marvel "what if?" comics.

[Mr. Spencer]

Don't be so fucking logical!

Fine. This game is going to be terrible, the animations are so bad looking even though it's a very early build and I can't believe they're using Leon AGAIN. Man, I can't wait to gun that fucker down even though it's non-CANNON.

Better?

[PracticalAl]

Haha, now that is f*cking bleak.. (Is it sad that had to double check to make sure it wasn't a Photoshop? Damn this internet age! *Shakes fist*)

Looks like a MGS and RE mash up. It looks like it will be a fun multi-player game but storywise will probably be a big joke like RE4.

So. Much. Unintentional. Comedy. Must. Resist.

[Mr. Spencer]

There's an agenda at work here, a secret agenda perpetuated by a cabal of Outbreak fans who wish to smear this game before it's even released.

I like the way you think.

Unless Leon had prior knowledge of Umbrella before entering the city, that Umbrella was aware that he had, there is ZERO reason for the USS team to make Leon the main target. That is what was so lame about the trailer, as I was watching it.

Leon, rookie cop, first day on the job, automatically the main target. So lame.

It's almost like they are playing on the fact that we know about the future, and are using that to make Leon important. Unless the USS team are time travelers and see what Leon did in RE4 and DSC, there is no reason why Leon is the main target.

I really hope they explain this. Because I have a feeling that they have no intention of doing that.

Someone should get this question to them in an interview.

Yeah, I know people are explaining it with the fact that they're hunting down all cops, but the "I found the target" line also bugs me.

Without time travel involved though, my best guesses are

- The game spans through multiple periods like outbreak. The 'shoot any police officers' line occurs earlier throughout the week. On the 29th Umbrella realized there's supposed to be a new recruit entering town and didn't want to risk him finding anything (even if it was a very small risk, killing one guy doesn't seem like it would be too much trouble).

- They've mistaken him for someone else. Remember that backseat zombie in RE2? Hell maybe that zombie used to be an actual threat to Umbrella and they didn't realize he's now a zombie.

- A total retcon of why Leon is in town.
Actually this wouldn't surprise me. It's still weird how the outbreak could have been going on for a week without Leon and Claire hearing something about it or how they even got into the middle of the city before realizing something was wrong (so they just happened to take the ONE road that wasn't covered in blood and destroyed vehicles?).
If anything, what still bugs me about RE: DC and this game is that they show them just casually strolling into the city when it looks like half the city is on fire.
Not to mention the whole military barricade thing that was brought up in RE3 and Outbreak but there's no explanation about how they got around it without fan speculation ("They took the side roads and the military only blocked the main roads" is a terrible explanation, sorry.)

45% complete and releases later this year? I'm calling BS on that.

[Darkmoon]

Yes, I found that number a little odd too. Either the game is depressingly small or they've only got the simpler stuff left to do, with most of the heavy lifting already complete.

Or we should expect the game sometime 2012.

Or unfinished at release like Slant 6s last SOCOM game.
