Resident Evil will be a House building simulator...putting the resident back in residence, yeah!

 

[crops55]

Well I certainly hope it will be completely different. I thoroughly enjoyed playing 5 and I appreciate any kind of risk taken to try something new, but babysitting and intrusive micromanagement aren't exactly what I had in mind from a Resident Evil experience.

 

[Salsa]

RTS awh yeah

 

[ZombieFred]

You know, I have always been curious if Capcom would take a note on how the gameplay worked in Uncharted (more so with Unchartedrakes Fortune) because the first title alone kept reminding me of Resident Evil; the music score later on being a key note here (being similar to Resident Evil 2's RPD facility). If the gameplay was tweaked around that changed to be more survival horror esque, I reckon it could work.

 

[eXistor]

All I want is a retrurn to classic horror and puzzles.

 

[toastyToast]

How about playing the role of a landlord with an unsavory tenant. The goal is to evict him but he wont make it easy.

Resident Evil.

 

[Small Mailman]

I'm not judging it this early when we have little to no info. You should all be doing the same.

Resident Evil.

I chuckled.

Anyway, I wouldn't mind going back to horror. And bring back Leon somehow. Or remake RE2 already, fuck.

Interesting. Make it as much about "survival" as it is "horror", strand the main character with little supplies and no chance of contacting the outside world in the wilderness (surrounded by zombies or "infected") and put in the Uncharted traversal mechanics for exciting escape sequences.

 

[ant1532]

Jokes aside vitality sensor while playing RE to make sure you don't get scared would be funny.

 

[Raide]

Some Survival and some Horror would really be sweet Capcom. Oh... probably another Military Zombie Shooter then.

 

[IonicSnake]

As long as it conrols like Dead Space and we'll never see the RE tankcontrols again I'll be very happy. Hopefully they'll go back to zombies and survival horror.

 

[Always-honest]

Probably a zombie infested cart racing game?

Dead Island might do the 'survival' and 'horror' combo.

The RE6 press statement will look something like this:

With Resident Evil 6™, Capcom™ will finally tie the Resident Evil™ and Ghosts 'n Goblins™ franchises together. The medieval ancestors of the Spencer family spread the Thyraent™ virus among their peasants. Sir Arthur Redfyld and his fellow S.W.O.R.D members have to battle hordes of the undead.

 

[Raide]

I was hoping for a Professor Layton spin off. Solving brain taxing puzzles while avoiding Zombies trying to tax your brains.

Sounds pretty awesome actually.

 

[Ushojax]

Just make it good. Don't cough up a self-plagiarized turd like the last time.

 

[isamu]

please please please P-L-E-A-S-E- make it a racing game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leon, Chris, Claire, Ada, Sheva, and Sherry, against a bunch on Ganados, the Kimbo Slice Majini, The Executioner, and the "Woohoohoohoohoohoo" Majini, around a giant race track within Racoon City!!! Do it Capcom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[StickyFingers]

Maybe something like the RE4 Beta was??

This I like.

What we have now, I don't like.

They need to go back to the survival horror, not that action jazz what everybody is doin.

I do hope RE6 is more in the direction of that YT video.

 

[The Praiseworthy]

They will make it a shooter... I just know it, no way they are making a horror good RE games for us... Because they hate us or at less the old classic RE fans.

 

[shadyspace]

Operation Raccoon City does not inspire me with hope of them taking this series in the direction it should be headed.

 

[rockman zx]

It's going to be a game for the mass market, they will aim for 3-4 million copies or something high like that, I doubt they can sell that much with a true horror game, it's going to be an action over the top game for sure.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

I can’t say if we’re going to make it (Resident Evil 6) survival horror or a shooter, but I can say that it’ll be totally different.”

survival horror or bust.

 

[Freezie KO]

Non-co-op action in a zombie environment. So like RE4 minus any puzzles that game had.

 

[Night_Trekker]

Weren't they promising to reboot the franchise not long ago? What happened to that?

Also, I have no faith at all in RE without Mikami.

 

[JaseC]

So, it'll suck?

He said "completely different".

Eternal Darkness type screwing with the player please.

Oh my god I laughed so hard at this!
HAHAHAHA

 

[Replicant]

Feel free to copy ideas from Dead Space.

This. Although I'm talking more about atmosphere and control. But knowing Crapcom they'll put really fast zombies instead.

 

[Leckan]

Will it be done by a western developer and will it be released this gen are the real questions.

 

[Vinterbird]

So who should develop this? Since Capcom is only doing new IP internally and outsourcing sequels, who should be up to bat? Epic Games?

 

[brotkasten]

Totally. Different.

[mugwhump]

The series needs to return to its roots


And by roots I mean RE4

 

[eso76]

Could be a free roaming sandbox ?
i can't think of a lot of different things it could be without it being a competitor to Dead Rising or other Capcom IP's.

 

[scitek]

I bet RE6 started out as DMC5.

 

[jdforge]

They really ought to produce another title similar to RE4, or REmake. RE4 is an almost perfect evolution of REmake, with REmake the quintessential vision of the series' origins.

However, if they are able to replicate the transition from REMake to RE4 with something entirely new, that would also be great.

 

[.la1n]

Like numerous other have said, I have no problem with being able to control the character during action sequences ala Dead Space / 2. This is really the ideal route to go with the series. You have your action set pieces sprinkled around a generally creepy setting /creatures.

Just don't make it out in the damn bright ass sun open wide as hell Capcom, we need clausterphobic settings mixed with the ocassional open area.

Also last but not least, for the love of god if you bring back an old character they don't need to be redesigned. Do not steroid them up or turn them into a playboy model.

 

[Clott]

I haven't watched the Resident Evil 4 Beta video in a while and that thing was tense! I can imagine dreading seeing the hook man, and it seems that light was his weakness, to take him to the windows and have lightning weaken him was a great idea. That's where we have to go back to!

 

[badcrumble]

Capcom has no idea what to do with this franchise anymore.

 

[Dyno]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Looks that way, they haven't even decided on a genre!

 

[badcrumble]

Looks that way, they haven't even decided on a genre!

They need to pick a director with a strong and bold and clear vision for the game instead of designing games through focus groups and feature checklists like Resident Evil 5 and Operation Raccoon City.

 

[NEOPARADIGM]

Bigger arms.

 

[RepairmanJack]

I really don't understand what there is to choose? Resident Evil already has side games for the shooter genre, why turn the main franchise into that too?

They should go back to survival horror. I would really like them to go back to the puzzles, the cramped hallways, the slow zombies, and very little ammo.

 

[Ichabod]

I think RE could work from a first person perspective. They'd just have to make sure to focus on desperation, survival, and terror (ala Amnesia) and not turn it into a dudebro modern warfare clone.

 

[Vinci]

It'll be a tactical strategy game.

Awesome.

I'm in.
