Resident Evil 6 Reveal? [IGN/EG: Teaser Vid Is Fake | No Reveal Or Announcement]

Why would this be a reboot if they're calling it "Resident Evil 6"?

If it'd be a reboot of the series they probably would name it more like "Resident Evil - First Infection" or something like that.

Also (and I think I said this before in another thread) I would love a reboot of the series. Start with RE0 or 1, keep the ridiculous storyline, but freshen it up a little, make the surroundings completely polygonal, slap some RE4 controls in, keep the RE4 style inventory, don't force co-op gameplay, and I'd be there day 1. Day -50 even if they announce reboots of that kind of RE1, 2, 3 and Code Veronica, I still won't forgive Capcom for cancelling MML3 though. But I'll still buy their games. I'm such a Capcom whore D:

I will be sooooooooo pissed off if they forced another co-op on us.

Make it optional for those who want it.... but for us the old RE fans, we want our game to be solo and scary again.

and oh yeah... this time is Clair turn, she didn't get her own game for a decade .

My Wife will be so pissed if there is some tacked on Co-Op. I want RE5 Co-Op once more with feeling please.

Acceptable.

Thanks, Kerrby.

I can't see Capcom releasing a sequel to one of their biggest franchises in 2 months with zero marketing ahead of time.

Are people really buying this?

Read the title again, man. "Revealed", not "released".

Please let this be for the next round of consoles. I doubt this would look much better than Resident Evil 5 on current consoles.

I think you need to re-read the thread title. It says revealed, not releasing. As in, they're going to start showing it off at the Tokyo Game Show.

Just got off a 16 hour work day :p

Thanks.

Nonsense! Nobody ever understands it the first time! (That, and we were all within two minutes of each other, so...)

You should upgrade to NeoGAF Gold subscription for 100 pages. >.>

Then, I hope not only it has co-op but 16-players co-op too. and a free roaming city with zombies ..and stuff. With running zombies and..heck, fat zombies too.


The logo reminds me a little to the original RE4 video, with the black myst...for some reason.

Yeah for some reason I doubt they are going to get up on the TGS stage or whatever and go. RE6 for Playstation 4 and Xbox Next. Oh by the way... Here's Sony and Microsoft to tell you about this new hardware.

This. I wouldn't mind if they went with the same style of camera as 4&5, but take it back to the fear/horror/puzzle-solving roots and make controlling the character as smooth as gears or dead space with the difficulty in combat coming from other aspects of the game like scarce ammo, two hit deaths or whatever. On the other hand, I would will for a static-camera resident evil at 1080p with incredibly atmospheric pre-rendered animated backgrounds and 3d character with great animations that blended well into the scenery, using the current consoles' power.
I agree with this much like you with me (you with me with you and me to you
fml confused lol
)

I want good ole RE 1-CV but with modern controls. If games like GTA4 can have story and depth then I can't see why we couldn't get an RE with openness and classic horror in the city!

I hope it isnt set in the fucking day time like Reisdent Evil 5.
That wasn't scary.

But putting up with AI-controlled Sheva sure was.
 
Teknoman said:
I support this. Seperate co-op scenario would be nice.

Totally agree here - and no more forced co-op. Also:

Leon and Claire split story campaign again, with improved melee combat system and deep gun modification. Online Mercenaries mode with 4 player co-op and loot that includes but is not limited to hats.

"Scary" isn't quite what I'd call that.

I really don't mind co-op, be it done Gears of War/Halo style or a separate campaign like Portal 2. As long as it's not forced upon. Forced co-op fucking sucks, and it always has and always will. I hate babysitting stupid AI in games.

It would've been if they kept the "daylight/sunlight drains you, blinds you for a few minutes as your eyes adjust" concept they had in the original reveal teaser.

Oh how much Biohazard 5 shat on me. Fuck you Jun Takuchi. :(

I'm still expecting the CO-OP aspects of RE5 to return. Despite all it's faults it was still the fastest and highest (?) selling game in the series; so i don't see why they won't take influences from it. But i also expect them to take influence from games like Dead Space. Y'know, games that have strong combat controls with horror elements and scares. I just hope they won't design the game as much around the co-op experience this time around.

But boy, this is gonna overshadow Operation Raccoon City. Seriously.

I don't know about you, but I felt a sheva shiver travel down my spine whenever she bitched about needing something. :p
 
If they are going to go back to basics, (and even if they aren't) they need to completey start fresh. New characters, maybe even no more Umbrella, but they can't recapture the mystery and creepiness of RE1 and 2 with how convoluted the story has become.

I'd really like something along the lines of the RE4 "Hooked Man" version, that was amazing, and a real shame that it was canned.
But it isn't going to happen :(

I would like a new story, with new characters. But more than anything, I would love to see a return to form... something along the lines of RE1 and 2. 4 was great for its own reasons, but the series just isn't the Resident Evil it used to be. I would love to see them take some risks with the horror genre and try to make something that'll scare the pants off us like the first two games.

Nighttime, single-player, no escort missions. And of course, scary.

I'm guessing 2013.

Resident Evil 6 to release before Half-Life 3/Episode Three. Place your bets!
 
Please no forced co-op. That's all I care about. The AI was super stupid in RE5, which seriously diminishing my enjoyment of the game.

Resident Evil is kind of like Sonic actually.
