Capcom Producer Matt Walker responds to Concerns About New Resident Evil Game
- Thread starter stormfire
- Start date
Yeah, I'm of the same mindset. It will be the most obvious second class game if the only major big bad guys are Mr. X and Birkin, straight outta the RE2 remake, and there's not much new beyond that.
I disagree that branching out = keep interest going
That's what sank the series in the first place

My biggest concern is that it just doesn't have the level of polish RE2 and RE7 did. The UI, animations, and general look and feel of the combat isn't reaching the heights of their previous efforts, and it's comes off as jarring and disappointing.
The idea of a multiplayer RE is great, and the concept feels pretty cool overall. It's the execution I'm a bit bummed about.

When did RE ever sink? With the release of 7 and Remake 2? I mean just because 7 and Remake 2 didn't sell as well as 5 or 6, I wouldn't call it sinking the series. :)
It's still alive.
I expect RE8 and R3make to be more of what I want so I don't mind REsistance too much. I'm just happy it doesn't look like cheap shit like ORC and UC did.
Resident Evil is the worst IP to say this about. Not when RE4 and RE7 exist.
It needs more polish. There need to be more restrictions on how the mastermind player or whatever it is interacts with the other four. Start by changing how enemies appear in a room.
I think it's become clear that open communication from devs if a bad thing since nearly all fan bases can't actually handle it.
I mean it's not for me, but it's also not like they're calling it Resi 8, so I'll just ignore it
Truthfully I haven't I paid much attention to any backlash but I thought the trailer gameplay looked really rough and figure this is what people are complaining about. If the game is good I doubt there will be many detractors. That gameplay trailer didn't inspire any confidence though.
I like that they're experimenting with how to translate Resident Evil 2's gameplay to a multiplayer experience.
There are a lot of ideas that haven't gotten the opportunity to coalesce within a project. The enemy invasion mechanic in RE6, along with the DLC four vs. Ustanak mode, for instance. I'd like to see where that could lead when given its own space.
They made RE2R. They're making RE3R and RE8. They don't have to be distracted by adding a versus mode, or gimmicky multiplayer functionality, if Project Resistance can be a way for a seperate team to play with those ideas.

I don't know why people can't just fucking chill and let them try out shit they want to do. There's nothing wrong with diversifying gameplay in a spin-off game. I mean it's not like "this is the new direction all future RE will go in" or anything. You'll still get your familiar RE experiences.
If RE Survivor, Operation Raccoon City and Umbrella Corps didn't sink the brand I don't think this will. I'm not overly hyped for the game after watching the footage shown so far but I don't doubt Capcom has either/both RE3 REmake and RE8 in dev as well, so if Resistance turns out lacklustre I won't be too bothered.
Eh, as a Switch owner I'm tired of Capcom's 'buy this if you want that'. I'm just wary of them trying to do something similar here. I don't want to buy this. If it bombs it would be a waste of resources. If it succeeds Capcom will make more of this shit. So...
It's literally RE2 assets and gameplay in a RE Outbreak like game. Only new twist is the 5th player stuff. How is this more different than the series going from survival horror to linear action game to a first person survival horror game!
It's funny peeps are shitting on survive, it was legit survival horror and has a relatively fun multiplayer mode.
Looking forward to the beta for this game and eventually the release. Who knows, this may b be leading to the Outbreak revival that many people are seeking

You assumed gamers are entirely more reasonable than they deserve.
This.
However Capcom could spend all these money on something
There is a much bigger difference between a multiplayer Dead by Daylight / Zombie Master spinoff and a single player game than two single player horror action games where one is third person and the other first person
I agree with him.
I believe that the series has only endured to 2019 because it has mixed it up on occasion, largely to success. Not always a success, but I think it's been kept fresh and lively due to their willingness to take risks and flex their creativity with the series.
That said, I don't think Project Resistance does anything for me at this point, but I'm not disappointed that it exists.

Supposedly RE3 Remake is outsourced too. Capcom getting ready to fuck up a good thing.
Sounds like good reasoning to me, resident evil as a series and it's spinoffs have always tried new weird stuff (often failing miserably to be fair).
I suspect this will be one of those less
Successful attempts but I wish the team the best in proving me wrong, just please don't end up feeling like an attempt to jam a beloved ip into a genre that's perceived as a cash cow right now,.

This. They branched out enough and prior to RE7 lost all good will.
This game could be awesome - people should be more openminded and at least wait until they have played or seen more of the game before the bitching.
Capcom has delivered the last 3 years - they are not dropping some trash just because. Its in their best interest to deliver a quality Multiplayer experience - hate it or love it but you need these GaaS titles to bring on money in this age.

I just learned about this game a minute ago. I'm definitely interested in more operation raccoon city. edit: err or whatever that ps2 game was called. edit 2: it was Outbreak.
Do we know for certain that they are making a RE3 remake?
If so I'm not worried. Even if this game is shit at least we have a good game to look forward to.
