Resident Evil 2 - Spoiler Thread *UNMARKED SPOILERS* (Opening has leaked)
- Thread starter Noodle
- Start date
Any chance of a first person mode being added down the road? I know it's a long shot given that the game was designed to play more like RE4 but after playing the demo I just can't help but think how eerie it would be to walk around a la RE7. I got excited when camera modes were discussed but I doubt this will be one of them unfortunately.
I wouldn't rule it out, I feel like first person camera is way more likely than fixed angles.
We're talking 6-8 hours for each character, right?
So 12-16 hours for a full playthrough of the main story campaigns.

Damn the Chimeras need to be in more games.
Well RE3 had these:
So they are in Raccoon City... somewhere.
Yes.
Cool if resident evil 3 gets remade i can see these ugly guys in 4k.Well RE3 had these:
So they are in Raccoon City... somewhere.
Yes.
Drain Deimos will look great in the RE engine. Can't wait to see Nemesis too.Well RE3 had these:
So they are in Raccoon City... somewhere.
Yes.
I would be perfectly fine if they replaced the spiders and plant creatures with these cut guys from 1.5. I was so pissed the man spider was cut.

Yes, 6-8 for the first campaign you play is my educated estimate for the average player. Though I do the second campaign will go faster than the first like the original RE2 or RE1 or whatever. There is differences, areas exclusive to both characters, etc., but there's still applied knowledge of how to play the game, information about the areas, etc., which I think will make the second campaign go by a bit faster. This one is rougher than my first estimate, which I am pretty confident will be reflective of most people's experience, but I'd probably guess to beat both campaigns would take people 11-14 hours is my guess.
That however, is not including either HUNK or Tofu's modes, Hardcore difficulty (which is like a harder Arrange Mode for the main game), and other unlockables... (I fully believe Fixed Cameras and Rogue are in, but I don't know that 100%, I just knew that Fixed Camera was in development around the time the game was announced for the game as it was nearly done then and heard there was a mode you selected multiple characters in)

As an aside, I really hope Drain Deimos gets realized pretty awesome in REmake 3.
They took a segment of the game and filled with enemies. You had to get from point A to B killing all you could in the way. Add to that special weapons, customizations, different characters and special enemies and it does for a very compelling mode.
Damn the Chimeras need to be in more games.
Wtf are these?!
oh, so like battle mode from RE1, Extrem Battle from 2 or Mercenaries form 3?
These are those fuckers from the lab section of RE1/REmake that drop down from the ceiling in that boiler room
Their a cross between human and fly in the original resident evil only seen in the laboratory.
Pretty cool if that's how it works for the second game.
I'd suspected that key thing, because there's a few areas in the RPD which have doors locked by both of those keys on different entrances.
Ah damn I forgot about those bastards!
I gotta replay the original again soon. But I've never played 2 I'm sad to admit. Just one of those games that slipped by me. I wasn't even hyped for the remake until I played the demo. Went from maybe buying it on sale in a year or two to absolutely picking it up near release if not day one.
I'm hoping for a Mercs equivalent, but that might be a stretch.
This is something that ought be confirmed by now. Where are the spoilers people?!
One from the internet I thought I'd post here. To see if more of these sort surface pretty soon.

Wow so there is an actual fixed camera option? I'm genuinely surprised. I expected they'd have revealed that by now. Now I'm really curious to see what other secrets the game has.
So that's actual confirmation of a fixed camera angle mode? Damn I'm impressed, I wonder how it plays compared to the over the shoulder mode which seems to be how the game was built around.
False, but with a bit of truth. The beginning and ending of the campaign has differences based on who you play as first/second, but it's not really anything you'd call A/B campaign stuff. The only real differences are who you play as first goes through the front entrance of RPD while the second enters through the back entrance of RPD, and who you play as second fights the true final boss.
I'd wait for a bit more confirmation. While I do honestly believe it's in, these could easily be faked at this point. But as the game is out in the wild now, to see if more comes in soon or not. However, I think it's worth bringing up and sharing at least.
If fixed camera really is in, I wonder how if there are different control options like in the HD versions of REmake and RE0 (tank controls or the newer scheme).

If fixed camera is in, I wonder if and how they balanced the game's revamped controls and mechanics around it.
Thank Christ they fixed up the weapon sounds. They were awful in the demo.
Maybe the fixed camera mode is for a special / single segment of the game (Sherry's part for example) similar to the Japanese version of Resident Evil 4, which featured a classic camera similar to Code Veronica when playing as Ashley. But this time they maybe let you choose if you want a classic or fixed camera. I mean I have no idea, I'm just throwing ideas out here (in case that one photo isn't a fake). Would be cool to have a fixed camera as an additional bonus, but the game is designed around the OTS camera, so I don't know if it will really work that well. I guess we'll soon find out.

I currently have a theory that Rogue Mode is going to be a post-launch free update to REmake 2 they may announce on launch day in the launch trailer or something, but this is just a theory for now. A lot of odd comments recently may point to this.
I know it's probably a rogue-like mode, but I really do want a Mercenaries/Raid style mode to satisfy that addictive action itch.
You're not supposed to have theories. You're supposed to have answers and certainties!
Hope it's something that they continually update and add in new weapons/characters/enemies/etc.
Supposedly the campaigns between Leon and Claire are mostly identical, but depending on who you play first and who you play second determines who enters the front of the RPD and who enters the back, and also who takes on the final boss.

Then in REV1 you had "Ghost Ship" in Raid that was basically the entire ship you had to get through with a million enemies and different paths to get to the exit, also boss creatures were around.
