RE "controls" were never shitty anyway. They were a part (or a result) of the whole game design (fixed camera, narrow corridors).

And they are the exact same in BH4. Some people just find them easier to use with a third person camera.

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Safe Head > Pyramid Head lol

Can't wait for the cosplays

 

[Anteater]

I hope IGN has new(er) info on Monday, man I hate mondays.

 

[shinobi602]

It only frustrates you because you refuse to adjust to it.

Wh..what? What kind of logic is that lol? "Just eat the asparagus". "But I don't like asparagus". "Just adjust to it"....

I beat both RE4 and RE5 and still despised the controls. In fact that's my only gripe about the RE series.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

I don't think he designed a single one of those.

I don't give a shit.

There's nothing wrong with the controls in the RE series.

How did you find the controls in BH6?

 

[Hunter-Zero]

Nobody needs to adjust to that because today is just stupid and does not make any sense, there are better ways to add tension to the game, tank controls are something from the past.

 

[DEADEVIL]

H3LL Yeah!!!

We NEED another good Survival Horror game.

don't like != bad

re controls work exactly how they were meant to work

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

WTF

He was the main director/creator for all of them


Why do you think his name carries so much weight?

Why do you think they mention Resident Evil in the article?

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Could be good. Nothing screams "take my money" though.

Would need to see some game play.

 

[Nemesis_]

I hope IGN has new(er) info on Monday, man I hate mondays.

The fact that a lot of the media has been taken down leads me to believe it was meant to be for Monday's reveal.

ALL OF MY MONEY, MIKAMI. TAKE IT. ALL OF IT.

Gematsu has an more through translation:

Story
When Detective Sebastian and his partner rush to the scene of a gruesome mass murder, a mysterious, powerful force is lying in wait for them. Witnessing the killing of fellow police officers one after another, Sebastian is then attacked and loses consciousness. Waking up in a land where monsters are wandering about, Sebastian has to fight his way through a world of death and its close friend madness in order to understand what’s going on. Sebastian has to face his fears in order to survive on a journey to discover what lies in the shadows of that mysterious force.

Key Features

A Return to Pure Survival Horror: From the father of the survival horror genre, Shinji Mikami. He appears once again as the director of this game, one which makes your blood run cold, but heats you right back up. Players must survive on limited resources, experiencing that supreme match of action and horror, that indescribable terror. To survive in an afflicted world, your anxiety and nerves will be pushed to the edge.

Brutal Traps and Enemies with Puzzles: While struggling to survive, you’ll have to face indescribable terror, cruel traps, and sly mechanisms. Players can die in a trap all too easily, however, at times they can turn them against enemies.

In an Unstable World, Not All Horrors are in Plain Sight: The player is driven into a corner as the world distorts and warps according to mysterious and evil horrors. The scenery: hallways, walls, doors, rooms, buildings, and even nature, all transforming in real time based on the player’s actions. And the threats keep coming from all directions.

A Supernova of Horror: By setting one foot in this world weaved from lush backdrops, characters with personality, and a polished story, players will be sucked in, willing or unwilling, tension and anxiety rapidly mounting. When that fear is smashed and conquered, you can experience the bliss that can only be found in The Evil Within.

I find some of their word choices a bit odd, but gets the same basic message delivered.

Explain why.

 

[Slappers Only]

That trailer sure as hell didn't do it any favors, but I'm looking forward to seeing the game.

 

[shinobi602]

How did you find the controls in BH6?

They were definitely much better, but with RE6 felt a little...loose. Especially when enemies would swarm you. It didn't help that the game was a piece of shit though :-/

 

[Strike]

idtech5? I thought id said they had no plans to license it out to devs. Interesting.

You're trying to decry an admired industry legend. That tends to be met with hostility.

Director =/= designer

They are separate roles.

 

[Ridesh]

Yes, yes, YES.

I've been expecting a game like this for a long time, and made by Shinji Mikami?

Perfection.gif

 

[NoirVisage]

video was okay..then I pieced together the premise from the pics and and the story..

....

all my money..Thank you Mikami!

It's Pyramid Head, but... with a box.

 

[shinobi602]

re controls work exactly how they were meant to work

Well yes, it's an opinion...if I don't like something that usually means I find it to be bad.

 

[Host Samurai]

If this game does well, than Capcom will be kicking themselves in the ass.

 

[SirIgbyCeaser]

Why not call it ... Doom: The Evil Within, Zenimax.

I'll PM you my mailing address for you to send me a check

Oh yeah, get ID more involved in the development.

 

[Persona86]

It only frustrates you because you refuse to adjust to it.

Moving and shooting is vital, how am I supposed to take the character seriously if he can't move properly. Stop and shoot wasn't even good in the past anyway, I distinctly remember being annoyed that I can't move like a human being.

 

[shinobi602]

There's nothing wrong with the controls in the RE series.

You're certainly entitled to your opinion

 

[Defunkled]

maybe it'll be as clunky and japanese as vanquish

Vanquish?! Clunky?! The fuck outta here.

I don't take police officers or federal agents who move and shoot seriously.

I don't think I could think of anything worse ;_____;

 

[angular graphics]

idtech5? I thought id said they had no plans to license it out to devs. Interesting.

This is what Bethesda said when they thought Rage would be a hit and Doom 4 would have been released by now. These days Bethesda is rumored to want to turn them into a tech house..

 

[Risette]

I don't think I could think of anything worse ;_____;

what

It would be like the thing above come to life except better...

 

[Nirolak]

This isn't a license actually. Tango is a wholly owned subsidiary of ZeniMax.

Well if they have monsters sneaking up behind them, then they have no instincts.

 

[Risette]

RE4 has quick turn.

 

[abadguy]

I hope it doesn't let you move and shoot.

He said he doesn't want it to have shitty controls.

 

[Nemesis_]

Do that if you want but don't let iD near it. >_>

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

Director =/= designer

They are separate roles.

of course

But let's not sit here and pretend that the Director isnt the one who has the vision for the overall game

look at Kojima Productions and MGS: Rising. It was cancelled because they didnt have a leader who knew what they wanted.

Trying to downplay Mikami's role in shaping what RE4 is today must have forgotten Devil May Cry and the prototypes that got cancelled before he found what he was looking for in RE4


You also can't say he doesnt have any design experience. Just because he isnt a director doesnt mean he cant lend his design skills to help with the development of a game

 

[Persona86]

RE4 has quick turn.

So the best tactic is to turn around and stay in one place like a sitting duck, not move away and shoot?

My point is players should be given a choice, if you don't wanna move, that's your choice.

 

[News Bot]

*snip*

 

[Risette]

He said he doesn't want it to have shitty controls.

I know what he meant; that's why I said I hope it doesn't let him move and shoot, since the controls in RE4 are perfect.

So the best tactic is to turn around and stay in one place like a sitting duck, not move away and shoot?

My point is players should be given a choice, if you don't wanna move, that's your choice.

Bad choices shouldn't exist.

And if you're sitting in one place like a sitting duck, you're playing it wrong. Utilize the quick turn and keep your distance.

Wait what???

 

[D-e-f-]

idtech5? I thought id said they had no plans to license it out to devs. Interesting.

Well, they aren't. Tango is part of the Zenimax/Bethesda family so I don't think that is considered "licensing it out."

Wait what???

Living under a rock? How's that goin' for ya?

 

[Backfoggen]

Id tech 5 could create some great looking indoor environments.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

Mikami? With those visuals? Yessss please

 

[Slappers Only]

idtech5? I thought id said they had no plans to license it out to devs. Interesting.

Same parent company means they don't have to license? Not sure how that works.

 

[Nemesis_]

Living under a rock? How's that goin' for ya?

To be fair Tango haven't been in the limelight for a very long time and when they are they were partly ignore for not having any news on the projects they were working on >_>
