[Dance Inferno]

You guys need to calm yourselves. I watched this stream today and it's the same answer they gave when RE5 was released. This is not an official Capcom position, just him saying that Capcom may listen if the fans clamor for it.

In any case, put me in the "yes" boat. I would love to see this.

 

[randomwab]

There's not enough talent left at Capcom for me to trust them with a Resident Evil 2 remake, or REmake 2 or whatever it would be.

Honestly, no thank you.

 

[AkuMifune]

Then I will clamor for it by avoiding RE6. Just give us what you clearly know we want instead of what you think western gamers would buy more of.

 

[Zaventem]

Just to lay all the cards on the table, that way there's no rumor-mongering or things like that, no, we are not working on a Resident Evil 2 remake as of now

Bullshit they're working on it.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Clamor is back.

But seriously, this is one of the most requested games, what the fuck Crapc, wait, Capgod.

 

[Einhander]

Yes Capcom we want it. Do it!

 

[Darkangel]

If they did it like REmake with 1080p prerendered backgrounds, tank controls, and new areas/content then I would support it 100%.

If they want to make it in the same style as 4/5/6 then they should forget about it.

I think if RE2make were to happen, it should have been done right after REmake since the original team was still around.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

Hopefully fan support does not translate into financial backing.

That would be quite ridiculous and shameful for a Japanese publisher.

You have my moral backing for REmake 2, Capcom!

 

[Data West]

 

[SovanJedi]

Not that this will eeeeeeeeeeeeever happen, but if it did I am also in favour of it being in the style of REmake. What a great game. If my Wii wasn't kaput I'd pop that in right now and play it all over again.

 

[Levito]

Let's create our of RE2 remake dev team, gaf.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

For those that are doing the "Megaman Legends 3" skepticism; I'll put it this way:

When Megaman Legends 1&2 came out, no one really loved them including critics and consumers.
When Resident Evil 2 came out, everyone loved it.

 

[Himself]

I dread whatever "improvements" Capcom has in mind. Im playing RE2 on my Vita right now and its just fine. This coming from somene who LOVES REmake.

 

[SMT]

Response #1: Kickstarter!
Response #2: Just like Mega Man Legends 3 amirite?


Now, which one should I go for...?

Post is full of win.

WIN

 

[Kacho]

I am here to show my support.

 

[rvy]

Yeah, the onus is on us. We hold the resources to make it happen. What do you want? A paid demo? I bet it has crossed you mind.

 

[Darknight]

Awaiting RE 1.5 with improved textures. Thanx Capcom.

 

[stone128]

Do it Capcom!

 

[Barrel Cannon]

I'll believe that when Megaman Legends 3 hits shelves. Capcom did that out of spite. Such a rotten thing to do...

 

[antitrop]

What the fuck kind of answer is that? What's a dev room?

 

[TheSeks]

Fans have been begging for this for 10 FUCKING YEARS CAPCOM, what exactly is "fan support"?

This. I'd love to get Biohazard 2/3 REbirth's but they simply aren't gonna do it because Capcom is stupid.

Fan support has been there, but Capcom simply hasn't been listening. Instead we get Gears of Evil 6. :/

 

[CrunchyFrog]

hahahahahaha, this MUST be added to the OP

just like MML3 amiritegaiz? fuck you capcom

 

[Mpl90]

CapcomEuro still remembers Megaman Legends 3, I see. Salt in the wound? TONS of salt in the wound.

 

[Despera]

RE2make would be great!!

But from the current capcom? No thanks. I can do without another disappointment.

 

[AwayFromInfinityx]

They just started developing the PC version?!
Come the fuck on Capcom

 

[TriniTrin]

Didnt they say the same thing for some mega man games... look what happened there!

 

[Concept17]

There's not enough talent left at Capcom for me to trust them with a Resident Evil 2 remake, or REmake 2 or whatever it would be.

Honestly, no thank you.

Agreed. The last RE game that I enjoyed as an actual Resident Evil game was 2. 4 was a great action game, 5 was shit, and if the demo is anything to go by, 6 is even worse. The series is far from its roots it may as well be titled something else entirely.

 

[Soodanim]

If its in the style of the RE1 remake then hell yeah. If its like RE5 or RE6 then don't bother.

Unfortunately, I can't see Capcpom doing anything other than an RE6-style remake at this point. They're too far gone to do anything else.

Prove me wrong, Capcom.

 

[JonathanPower]

The thing is that RE2 was a survival horror game, where you had to survive through zombies and monsters trying to kill you, while modern RE games are just third person shooters. RE2 was scary, it was the shit back in the days. This generation we have Dead Space 2 which shows what a modern survival horror should be. So just imagine if Capcom were to make a game scary as Dead Space, but based on the ambientations and story of Resident Evil 2; then, it would be the best RE game ever.

 

[G-Fex]

Resident Evil 2 with these graphics? YES PLEASE

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

No, more like RE6 with a RE2 skin.

Aka ORC but playing as Leon and claire.

 

[Majmun]

Resident Evil 2 with these graphics? YES PLEASE

I would die.

But I'm sure Capcom's remake would look like a Re4 clone.

Then I would have to SKIP. Thanks Capcom, but keep that to yourself.

 

[stone128]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

No, more like RE6 with a RE2 skin.

Aka ORC but playing as Leon and claire.

God no. Prerendered

 

[solarus]

With capcpom anything is possible with fan support.

 

[AppleMIX]

I'm a little torn, the old style of resident evil is fairly outdated game design but I certainly wouldn't want it to be like RE6.

 

[Piers]

I really doubt they will.

Darkside Chronicles and Operation Racoon City, imo, felt like Capcom's way of revisiting RE2 whilst avoiding the route of RE1 remake on the Gamecube, more than anything. They clearly heard the demand to go back to RE2 again, they just didn't want to do it the way oldcore fans expected.

 

[MechaX]

Response #1: Kickstarter!
Response #2: Just like Mega Man Legends 3 amirite?


Now, which one should I go for...?

I will admit, the first things that crossed my mind were these two responses and a third response in the vein of "The Capcom Test Continues..."

 

[Muffdraul]

Damn, I've always thought of myself as a staunch Classic RE dude who thinks RE4 and beyond are "greasy kid stuff" bullshit compared to the real thing. But I feel like a pussy n00b with all of these people seriously still wanting prerendered backgrounds and contextual tank controls. Real time 3D engine with over the shoulder camera controls are the LEAST of modern RE's sins.

 

[itxaka]

Either this is to get some publicity for the RE brand for the RE6 launch or it's cacpom being cacpom with their tests and shit.

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

Typical PR response, I don't think we'll se a REmake 2 anytime soon.

And the worst is that they wouldn't make it like REmake....so maybe is for the better.

 

[Metroid-Squadron]

 

[Soodanim]

Lost In Nightmares showed that it could work with RE5's style. If they did REmake2 like that, I'd love it to bits. If they did it in RE6 style, I'd video myself setting fire to a stolen copy and hand deliver it to Capcom.

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

That was such a tease

Lost In Nightmares showed that it could work with RE5's style. If they did REmake2 like that, I'd love it to bits. If they did it in RE6 style, I'd video myself setting fire to a stolen copy and hand deliver it to Capcom.

Actually, pre-rendered or bust. While RE5 LiN looked good it couldn't compare to the atmosphere in REmake. Imagine glorious pre-rendered backgrounds on 1080p....*drools*

 

[TheBear]

I've disliked a lot of game companies over the years, but I am beginning to grow a true hatred for the motherfuckers running CAPCOM. They are in charge of some of the most loved franchises, and it seriously feels like they are going out of their way to fuck with the fans. I honestly do not understand the contempt they have for the people that have supported them all these years. I will be very angry when I purchase RE6 for PC in 2015.

 

[hao chi]

*bunch of images

Capcom is Rebecca, and all those doors are forums where people have been wishing for a RE2 remake for the past 10 years.

 

[gconsole]

Lol. We will see RE2 remake the same day with FF7 Remake.

All the fan need the fact check. Its difficult enough to not go ahead with that idea. If current RE never see the light of going back to be horror game. There is no way in hell Capcom will consider remake the horror game which will sale less than the new entry with new audience.

And without enough talent in hand. I think Capcom should leave it till they have one. Unless you guys want RE2 remake in RE 5/6 form?

 

[Muffdraul]

Lost In Nightmares showed that it could work with RE5's style. If they did REmake2 like that, I'd love it to bits. If they did it in RE6 style, I'd video myself setting fire to a stolen copy and hand deliver it to Capcom.

See, I'm not being that specific. To me, RE4/5/6 are all the same "style". Whatever minor differences to their inventory systems or UI or whatever don't matter. I say take everything about RE2, do it in a real time 3D engine, do an over the shoulder camera, and that's it. Same inventory, same weapons, same everything. Just in a more modern engine. Wishing for Cacpcom to do a full on classic pre-rendered background RE is ludicrous, they'd never do it. Because it wouldn't sell.

 

[RealDeadOne]

What? An RE2 remake is so obvious it hurts. What do you want fans to do, send mass emails to Capcom? Like they'd even listen anyway, we all see what's happening with MegaMan.

And even if it was made it would end up RE6 style and be crap compared to both REmake and RE4, graphically and gameplay-wise. I can probably count on one hand the talented people still at Capcom now.

 

[cvxfreak]

If Capcom did do a remake, I think they'd likely do it on 3DS and/or Vita.

 

[Levito]

If Capcom did do a remake, I think they'd likely do it on 3DS and/or Vita.

I'm ok with this.

 

[Muffdraul]

I didn't realize people saw such a difference between RE4 and 5 and 6. Same shit different number as far as I'm concerned. More or less.
