It's fixed guys, downloading 9gigs

Mine isn't, still only the 102MB file to download on Steam, bugger :(

Have restarted Steam twice, I wonder why mine isn't playing ball. Maybe because I used my retail key to activate it and they haven't updated that sub yet?

Is the DLC just extra stuff outside the main campaign? I can wait, especially when it's three times the cost of the main game right now but I would like to replay RE5 when there are people playing it.

Assuming this does actually get patched properly sometime this weekend.

The DLC is completely isolated from the main campaign, yes.

Will RE5 digital keys from other stores work? So far, it's coming up as invalid for me. Brought mine from Gamefly way back and I don't even think they sell RE5 PC anymore.

That DLC price. At least they could put it on sale too. :/

While i am at it, does this game have any good graphical mods?
Click to expand...

There's ENB Series mod that removes the graphic filter (the grey-green filter) and that's it. But, to be honest, that's all you need. RE5 is a really good looking game with great image quality.

I'm still getting an invalid key message for my retail cd-key. Guess I'll have to wait some more.

For Dark Souls and Batman Arkham City the transitions went pretty smoothly, so I hope this time around it will be similar. Although now it's Capcom, so you never know.

It took me a few days before my Dead Rising 2 retail key worked in Steam after the transition.
keep trying every day.

AH, the retail sub is working now so I'm downloading the game again.
Edit: And the first thing it installs? GFWL. Wow Capcom. And of course then the game crashes on first boot, lovely.

Any news on the filter mod? More so the one that gets rid of the filter. Is that still working?

Will this work with the Steamworks version?

I'll try it right now.

-------------

It shows up but I can't activate the effect. F11 just brings in a Black screen.
I think were gonna need a new mod for RE5 to get rid of the filter.

I played a Chapter just to test it out. I used to think it didn't play too bad but Jesus Christ the slow 90° turning... and I keep trying to strafe... and for some reason keep hitting X to run rather than A. Has REmake done that to me?

So is RE5 Steamworks now?
If yes I would download it now on my steam account, I only waited that the GFWL thing was removed.
Click to expand...

Seems like it. I just installed it and played the first couple chapters and no sign of GFWL. I even unlocked a few achievements.

Also, I have to admit I'm mildly annoyed that they didn't bother renaming the app to "Resident Evil 5 / Biohazard 5" to be consistent with the other games. That's what it says in the store but in my library it's still just Resident Evil 5. It's a minor gripe but it still kinda bugs me. :/

I see, at least everything is working now without GFWL, the price for the gold edition is still steep though, especially I already own the normal game and still need to pay €14.99, damn it Capcom.
That is weird anyway, Capcom gives a crap about consistency it seems.

You can strafe in re5, its in one of the control types. Type C or D maybe?

How long is the dlc?
Click to expand...

A couple of hours each episode (there are two). I might be a little generous here. There is also other stuff like costumes and mercenaries stages if you are into it (and you should be, its amazing).

It's good, it was well worth the price when it was released. Not so many years later, though.

Ok, thanks. I'm too busy playing bloodborne now. Might buy the dlc later.

GFWL keys are slowly being added to the steam key list. If it doesn't work now try again later, same thing happened with Dead Rising 2 when it switched over to steamworks. It's possible it could take a day or two.

Good! I'll play it today. The DLC is only R$ 13,60 right now here (or 4.27 US dollars).

Edit: I was mistaken. This is the price of the full game.

Mine is updating now. I'm afraid to open it though because people are saying their save games are gone. Should I wait?

They said that they'll be releasing a tool to migrate saves and achievements from GFWL to Steam at a later date. So if you don't want to restart everything, hold on for that.

Oh shit, scratch that. Seems they just did update it, my library now says RE5/Bio5. Nice!
