Article says that Leon and Chris have separate stories, that Ada has a story, and then a new character has one.

I'd assume, based on the article, that you have Leon, Chris, and New Character in main storylines, while Ada's is probably a Separate Ways sort of thing you get after beating the game.
 
I hope the partners are not new. They keep throwing new partners at us and it seems completely unnecessary when much of the old cast gets overlooked.

This should be #1 on Nintendo's Wii U target list for launch this year. Being serious about third party support and having the horsepower to run games like this aren't worth a damn unless they actually GET the games.

Given that they're on good terms with Capcom, it should be an easy get.
 
guys i just realized: with mikami gone and takeuchi in, leon is probably going to be the boring serious guy from the CG movies :((((

RE5 was near broken SP...but the coop was amazing...I hope they keep coop as part of this, but fix the SP problems...
 
You have a PS3 or 360 right? Nothing about WiiU will make this game any better.

And reading the IGN link, more action horror akin to RE4 and 5? FAIL. Damnit. Will hold more judgement until more solid info and video comes in.

Local co-op could be better thanks to individual screens. That's how I played RE5 and I'd take my own tablet over splitscreen if given the option.

You would think so, but maybe they haven't provided enough help with Wii U development kits or made it more difficult. I think a version of this hits Wii U at some point, but I think it's especially important at launch and at Wii U's probable launch.

Like I've said, this is why they should make co-op its own separate campaign like Portal 2 and Uncharted 3 did. That keeps the single-player game unsullied and allows for important atmosphere-building tools like actually isolating the player.

The separate character arcs sound great, like Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2, and Resident Evil: Code Veronica had. Also cool how both Chris and Leon get their own partner. I figured Ada would be in the game. Please let that third character from a "third primary narrative" be Barry. I hope the control mechanics are more like Resident Evil 4 than Resident Evil 5. I'd rather not have co-op be a staple feature in this installment.

Those rumoured details sound good to me. I hope they're true.

Edit: Although I'm not too fond of the idea of globetrotting. I would rather have them stick to a single location.

I just realized that too. Everyone creaming over Leon better reign in their expectations, he's not going to be the person he was in 4.

Well, Darkside Chronicles came out after Degeneration and he was more like normal Leon in that.

No co-op hopefully.

Either way it's hard to take this series seriously anymore. Rumored details don't sound very good at all.
