Why the fuck was the Resident Evil 2 thread deleted? I guess I'll start a new one.
What does everyone think the chances of REmake 2 being announced at E3 are?
Will it be fun?
Will the new movie reboot actually be faithful to the source material?
Did anyone else enjoy 7?

Even then, 7 was the right ammount of crazy and silly without being a shitshow, now, if only the characters were more interesting, it had unlockable outfits and more types of enemies, then it would have been completely ok in my book.

RE1-3's combat was so boring and you know it. It's just an artificial challenge and you know it. Because it makes you unable to see the enemies right in front of you? Then just fix the their positioning to keep them appear unexpected even with FPS/tps camera, make creative use with corridors and containers. Because it would make the combat easier if you can just aim on their head? Then just put more of them or make them stronger.

As long as they keep the non linearity of the original game, it would be fine. What made 4 truly shit compared to it's predecessors was how linear it was (and the QTE thing, that was a shitfest), and it's sequels were basically 3rd person CoD with zombies. What made 7 shit was because it's full of scripted sequences, just like 4 again.

The combat wasn't really the main draw of RE you fucking tard.
It was slowly unlocking a large puzzlebox and later seeing how fast you can get through it. Why do you think we got 8 games in that style before RE4? And back then, the only people who said CV was bad were fanboys, and nobody really said 0 was bad till the HD rerelease.
The combat was only there to increase difficulty and add a challenge, which it succeeded at doing. The only RE boss that even came close to Nemesis was Professional difficulty Wesker.

The fixed camera and tank controls of RE was just a product of it's era. A lot of PC action games back then followed to formula of Alone in the Dark into their action-puzzle games, RE was just one of them. It wasn't a very good formula, that's why people abandon them unless for nostalgia purposes.

The characters were very relatable, ordinary people trying to do their best to survive the madness of post apocalypse Raccoon City.
There was no former special forces or spies with hidden agendas.
You had to cooperate with other survivors by sharing itens and ammo, healing and fighting enemies.
The online gameplay was a very fun experience, fortunatelly a few japs were able to restore the servers and now we can play online again on both PS2 and emulators.

The controls aren't crappy. They're tank. Tank controls are some of the easiest shit to master and I've never understood how anyone could fuck up at them. I grew up without tank controls, and when I was 12 and decided to go back and play my brother's copy of RE, I was like 'these controls are weird' for about 10 seconds and then fucked around for a minute and got used to them.
The only part of RE combat you can argue is crappy is the melee combat, but that's also why there's ammo everywhere and they have more guns than most survival horror game (and for retards who say all survival-horror games have to have shit combat or no combat at all, you only play shit like Amnesia, and when cite SH2, you probably played the godawful HD version. Survival-horror combat has never been shitty, just slow).
>The fixed camera and tank controls of RE was just a product of it's era
And it worked and gave us beautiful looking games because it used it's limitations to its advantage. RE3 isn't too much of a looker now, but back then it sure as hell was, and REmake and 0 still look good. Hell, with some touching up, GS4 and the Outbreak games would probably look beautiful on modern platforms.
>RE was just one of them. It wasn't a very good formula, that's why people abandon them unless for nostalgia purposes.
People stopped doing it because RE4 was successful and cause it's own brand of unimaginative, derivative TPS games that all look and play the same, and people say are good because 'woah spook'.
There's nothing wrong with traditional survival-horror gameplay. The issue here is you and your casual mindset. Get used to it or don't play. RE1-3 were a huge success on the PS1, as was SH1-3 on the PS1 and 2. REmake and 0 were huge successes a while ago, and they used this same formula you claim wasn't good, and say what you want about people pandering to REmake because it's REmake, but nobody gives a shit about 0 and that got good ratings.

I used to enjoy talking about it, but it's fucking terrible now, because all of them think they're in the minority, when in reality, everybody is saying Outbreak is amazing and you should play it online, because they never actually played it online and hear stories from other people about it.
Let me tell you how it was online, according to some people over at Project Umbrella.
According to them, it was fun for the first month (if you lived in places where you could actually play online, i.e., America and Japan), but after the first month, it was filled with speedrunners.
Outbreak is not some underrated hidden gem anymore. It's an overrated game that is REv levels of unbearable to play offline most of the time, and people talk out their ass about how great it is. Now, I'm not going to just give it shit, the added lore and characters are fun, but Christ the fans are retarded.

I wouldn't mind over the shoulder if the game was built from the ground up to support it. RE4 made good work of it, because it still limited your fov and allowed enemies to reach you if you were too reckless. Throwing in enemies that could punish you (chainsaw guys) for letting them get close worked well with the new camera angle too. Having said that, if they do go third person, I'd like there to be an option to either go fixed camera or put it in the original game as a bonus with the original camera.
>>14800894
The Anderson movies are their own thing. The closest to the original games were the first two movies. Everything after that and even the second movie went completely off the rails. They're dumb action movies with bioweapons in them. They're more what-ifs than anything else considering how often the setting either changes or characters return from the dead. They're just meant to be dumb and fun.

Outbreak was a lovely series, but it was pretty doomed from the start. It was on the ps2, which only connected to the internet via an add-on. It also came out during a time in which dial up was still huge and dsl was still gaining traction. I would love for them to re-release it and give it a few touch ups and I'm sure it would make bank. It was just a fun game that came out at the wrong time. At the very least, it should have been co-op like 5-6.

Outbreak really should just get a re-release. If remake 2 does well enough, we might just see 3 and the outbreak series return.

Resident evil 4 still had tank controls. You could even make combat even more intense in a 3d space by making the character's aim shaky when enemies get too close to the player character. It would play exactly the same but have an over the shoulder camera with 3d environments. Stop being an obtuse faggot.

But they were used with a different style of gameplay and different camera setup.

That's more annoying than anything. I prefer the tight control and fixed camera angles of the classics.
>t would play exactly the same but have an over the shoulder camera with 3d environments.
So it'd play completely differently. RE4's camera is not meant for survival horror. It's why it produced games like DMC and their only solution was to use CV style angles and switch to over the shoulder when using your weapon (but that idea got shitcanned). Remove the QTEs if you want, you can't have tension if you can head shot your enemies and they stumble back for 10 seconds giving you enough time to run past.

it's not perfect. It feels slower paced compared to the original and overall the style of the original is just more fun. REmake also has the problem of feeling empty when you don't know where to go and you're just wondering around an empty mansion. Not saying the original didn't also have this but it's worse here. As far as remakes go it can be considered "good". Maybe if they had 1080p(and higher) pre-rendered backgrounds, I could bump it up to "great".

RE sequels had even less puzzles than the first one while AitD games stayed puzzle heavy. I'm not saying which one is right or wrong, it's just that RE has always been the more action oriented take of the survival horror genre.
>The controls aren't crappy. They're tank. Tank controls are some of the easiest shit to master and I've never understood how anyone could fuck up at them. I grew up without tank controls, and when I was 12 and decided to go back and play my brother's copy of RE, I was like 'these controls are weird' for about 10 seconds and then fucked around for a minute and got used to them.
And I was addicted to RE2 on N64 emulator when I was 11. Just because the controls are simple doesn't mean that they're good controls. This and the fixed camera aren't really fitting in the action heavy gameplay of RE.
>The only part of RE combat you can argue is crappy is the melee combat
No, the whole combat is crappy. Your character just shoots at the general direction of the enemy, there little input from the player. What makes a combat good is how much control you have on the character you play, and here you have very little control. With the automatic aiming it's sequels and remakes had, there's even less and less player's input.

That stumble is a necessary part of making the gameplay work, it's a sign you know your shots are hitting. The issue people had with RE6 was that enemies would sometimes tank headshots and brush it off.
>>14821068
>it's just that RE has always been the more action oriented take of the survival horror genre.
That's not an excuse to turn it into a TPS when it clearly worked better with fixed cameras.
>And I was addicted to RE2 on N64 emulator when I was 11. Just because the controls are simple doesn't mean that they're good controls.
Actually it does. If the controls are easy to get used to, they're good. They're not god tier, like Ratchet Deadlocked controls, which are probably the best we'll ever get for TPS besides Vanquish and RE6, but they're good, they do their job perfectly and everything they tried to add also worked well.
Also, RE4 had the same controls but from a different perspective.
>No, the whole combat is crappy. Your character just shoots at the general direction of the enemy, there little input from the player.
That's not crappy. That's mediocre. And the combat isn't the core of the gameplay until RE3, where they add enough mechanics and ramp up the tension so that the combat works better. CV is the only game where I'd argue the combat is crappy, and that's mostly because it took RE2's combat while trying to amp up the action from RE3.
>With the automatic aiming it's sequels and remakes had, there's even less and less player's input.
The automatic aiming was always there in the Jap version and in rereleases first of all.
Second of all, the combat was only really a central aspect of 3 and CV. In all other games, the central aspect was solving the big puzzle of how to get out of the place your in, and that was and always has been much more enjoyable than the combat heavy action games, where you just fight through linear rooms of the same enemies you saw 4 hours ago, with the puzzle of escaping and slowly unlocking taking a backseat or not being there are all.
>So you care more about graphics than gameplay. Noted.
Combat isn't the only part of gameplay tard. Gameplay is also the running around and finding items, reading through files, and avoiding combat when needed.
>Very elaborate argument.
I mean it is. The only people who say tank controls are bad are people who casualized themselves and think they're terrible just because they're a product of their time and limitations.

>It's another "armored vehicle controls r bad" episode
As someone who recently has been playing through the entire series, having just finished with 4, I gotta say it was kind of a disappointment. I had fond memories of it and everyone here will tell you how great it is, but It really is lacking the things that made the franchise great to begin with.
One of those things being fixed camera angles. Yes over the shoulder might be more immediately intuitive, but it fundamentally changes the gameplay and in some ways not for the better. The action of running up to a zombo in 2 or 3 and quickly pulling the shotgun upward at point blank for headshots is an input sequence that differs from pointing at something's head and blasting it from any distance in RE4.
That's not to say it's any worse, but it is "different" which makes it completely in the realm of opinion for which one you prefer. That's the real crux of the issue. It's "different" which means the people who liked the older style aren't going to be happy even if you think it's superior, it's just not the same game anymore.
Personally I've run through RE1 about a dozen or more times so far, RE2 about 10, RE3 twice (I was itching to get into 4), and code veronica only once, and I can't see myself sticking to 4 like I did with the first ones.
Anyway, my point is you guys gotta quit stomping around going "YOU FUCKING BABIES JUST WON'T ADMIT THE THING I LIKE IS BETTER" when it's fucking apples and oranges. In my opinion, RE4 should never have been a Resident Evil game and you guys can't really be called Resident Evil fans but I won't sit here and say RE4 is an objectively worse game that you can't enjoy. I would expect the same in return, quit trying to convince everyone that TPS is better than fixed camera because it ain't gonna happen.
It's like trying to start a debate about isometric view against crpgfags, at the end of the day everyone has their preference and it doesn't fucking matter.

But RE4 is objectively better. I grew up with the series and had RE, RE2, RE3, and CV at release, and I loved them at the time.

>If the controls are easy to get used to, they're good.
The NES had a lot of games that controlled horribly despite only having 2 buttons + dpad. So did 2600, even less buttons. And it's not like WASD + mouse is any more complex than tank control, yet more controlable.
>That's not crappy. That's mediocre.
Same meaning pretty much?
>And the combat isn't the core of the gameplay
Try playing AitD 1-3 where most enemy encounters could be solved with puzzles, and even then the devs still considered it action adventure game. RE is pretty heavy on the combat and enemy evasion. In fact, it probably is the center of it because most of the puzzles are just simply putting objects in slots with very simple hints and riddles.
>Gameplay is also the running around and finding items, reading through files, and avoiding combat when needed.
And RE had little of those. In fact, I finished RE1 through 3 without reading a single file. They're just item fetching games, memorization of slots before finding an item, not highly puzzle games. Avoiding combat is mostly consisted of running past a group of zombies.
>The only people who say tank controls are bad are people who casualized themselves and think they're terrible just because they're a product of their time and limitations.

Because Leon is a government agent and an anti-Umbrella operative, as well as anti-BOW. He is what would be labelled as an important individual, and having someone who can easily get to them is useful.

Imagine if Steve came back in a Claire game, or if Piers popped up in a REv game.

Ark could be another candidate for a REv game, or Capcom could do the smart thing and remake Survivor for VR in the RE Engine (which would bump it up to being one of the best RE games if it had the high production value of 7).
You could also renew interest in Bruce with a port or a first person remake of GS4, but people probably wouldn't buy the port.
