I wonder if Moira can still defend herself somehow. Also I hope Claire has some RE6 moves.

Yup, 6 is best.
Rev and RE1 are best costumes though.

Loved Revelations 1 and I'm liking how they are building these games into like their own side story through multiple games.
I was already excited and these details make it even better.

What? RE5 Chris is CLEARLY best Chris.

Yeah, that's true. I just don't like the idea of them also joining the gang in their escapades.

If raid is back they really REALLY need to improve. Went though 2 difficulties of it and it wears on you quick. I never want to mess with raid again if it can be helped.
Its poor mans everything in that mode.

Reading more, i'm not too keen on this approach, Claire is best as a survivor not a fucking gun expert or soldier whatever, she was more or less perfect in the CG movie a few years back.
Having Barry's daughter be the healer and support of the group gives me flashbacks to RE5's lame co-op experience in places, not something I want again.
Burton has two daughters, wonder if they changed that or not story wise.

it makes sense though, the original cast is only getting older in the timeline so they are probably trying to introduce some younger characters they can use as protagonists in future titles.

-> I'm guessing that Moira will just never die... don't get your hopes up with permadeath. this is a 10h single player game ... not dayz
Revelations was no Survival Horror Game. Resident Evil 1 (especially Remake) was Survival Horror.
PS. Hi Everybody. My first post^^ Hope the spelling is allright, English is my third language
dont know having characters have distinct roles seems like a better aproach, claire is clearly the more experienced person, unlike barrys daughter, and seeing as moira is the only one with a flashlight might give unique gameplay experiences

She went through Raccoon City, CVX, and Degeneration. I think she's going to know how to use a gun quite well after all of that. So I don't see it as a stretch since she is a veteran to this stuff at this point. Hell she was at the Umbrella HQ at the beginning of CVX. No "survivor" is going to be pulling all of that off.
As for the rest we just have to see. Gameplay will be at TGS

Yeah, I don't think I want to play Raid mode again after yesterday. Too many bullet sponge enemies. We spent like a good 5 minutes stabbing an enemy with our knife because we were out of ammo, and he just didn't want to die.
Keep levels and grinding out of my RE please.

That would be too much a change in character. Wesker worked cause he was there from the start, the characters had major history. Also he was so unabashedly an asshole you just loved to hate him.
I feel the best route for this series would be a reboot, do it sort of like Star Trek, remix the relationships a bit. Make the story more cohesive this time.

Its an extra mode.

Game looks great so far, but I really wish there was a male playable character. I don't mind playing as a female character (my favorite game of all-time's main character is female), but I always preferred being able to switch it up for variety purposes.
Also, RAID Mode or bust please. And more of an RE4 styled inventory system and upgrade system, please thanks.

Mercenaries is also a extra mode and it doesn't wear on you like Raid does.

I think NewsBot said that Barry will be playable. I think I read that in Capcom Community board. Let me check on that I'm not 100% sure.

Bullshit she's not a gun expert, she's survived multiple games and a movie. She wasn't doing typical survivor stuff. And let's not forget the intro to resident evil code veronica.

I'd take another Ghost Ship over every Merc map and character ever combined.
Mercenaries is great but once you do well on a map its so repetitive.

There is honestly not a singe detail that I don't like. I welcome the return of my favorite RE character. Please Capcom, please get Alisson Court.
Also I'm not getting the hate about the Claire scans. The main one is kinda wonky cause it's not perfectly laid out and the one in game shot looks nice.

RE6 Chris is best Chris
Also, 2002 and 2007 Chris looks like Piers Nivans.
That's because that chart is only showing his face.
Here's the full thing:
REmake Chris is the best Chris.

. seriously, it seems like her butt is the only thing that stayed consistent throughout this entire series. Her looks have been way more inconsistent than the other main characters. Her hair is Especially in the first gif, her hair is three different shades of red.

Man Claire has seen better days... She looks pretty awful. Maybe seeing her in action will be quell my fears. However, it's really weird, I can't shake this feeling looking at the scans that it's eerily similar to The Last of Us. Hopefully that isn't the case but I dunno atm...

They both run into that though.
Once you're the recommended level for a map with weapons for that level there's nothing to it. All Raid mode had going for it was the illusion of progress since the game purposefully kept XP gains low so you would grind and have to spend more time in the mode. The idea was there but the execution was lacking. Level did nothing more than let you use more weapons and buy better cases. Which once again you needed to grind to get enough BP to do so.
Basically you can have a XP mode such as raid without the reliance on grinding which is what they need to fix. They need to add more variables to the characters and not be so stingy with the XP. Makes no sense to do a level 5 levels under the minimum and get just as much XP as running through a 3 minute level 1 level under.

So does this mean that we will finally learn the "official fate" of Barry in RE1 since we have Barry's daughter in this game? Possible Barry appearance?
We never got a definitive answer on what his exact fate was supposed to be.

If they ever expand on Mercs that would be a interesting take.
Razgriz-Specter

I think trying to survive longer would definitely be more enjoyable than just a slightly better score in the same time every single game.
Its my only real problem with Mercs.
One of the loading screens in RE 5 states he survived the first game. Hes also the chopper pilot that rescues Jill at the end of RE3.

Somewhat. Not quite to the extent TLOU does it. Revelations 2 sounds like it's going to have that same dynamic.
Black Soma

I started playing Raid mode because I had heard good things about the Ghost Ship level, but I'm already sick of playing the same levels filled with hundred of bullet sponge enemies.
I think I'll go back playing RE6 Mercs. Now that is always fun to play.

Dual female lead roles - nice. (weren't there supposed to be three main characters though?) I must admit that I was looking forward to seeing Rebecca, but I'm happy to see Claire back even if she sort of looks dumb. Anyone besides Chris and Jill.
Claire and Leon survive Racoon City only to run into each other at some random airport in all of United States where a zombie attack just had to happen at that specific time. I couldn't really stomach Degeneration and it kind of staled RE for me.
I might still get this, but the storylines are getting ridiculous now imo. I really enjoyed the classics for the realism (relatively) and detail they presented in storytelling.

Oh for fuck's sake Capcom ENOUGH with co-op and partner characters in Resident Evil.
