Resident Evil Code Veronica: Fans are pushing #RemakeCodeVeronica
- Thread starter Blackbird
- Start date
It's one of the few RE games I haven't had a chance to complete thanks to how difficult it actually is to get. In that sense, it's very deserving of a remake.
I felt that way about RE3 and, well, we know how that turned out…
First twitter post shows Steve... yeah now I remember a good reason I cant stand part of CV. Sure they could improve him like Carlos... but seriously Capcom's already busy remaking RE4... plus remaking games is just not something I like at all... So no, dont remake CV. Or any other RE game. Just make new RE games instead... that's a much more exciting prospect.
Honestly, this is my sentiment as well. Doesn't hurt that there have been so many RE4 ports and twists on its gameplay or the years, from Wii to VR, that I never felt like the game went away long enough for me to ever miss it.
This is perhaps the game in the series with the highest potential in regards to a remake (chance of improving the game from the original).
I'd love to see them do a high quality remake. I enjoyed the game on DC and I recently tried to play the 360 port (on Xbox BC) and couldn't get past the tank controls.

RE3R was outsourced though. I'd imagine we wouldn't have to worry about getting another cliff notes reboot instead of a remake.
I'll take RE Code Veronica. I played the remakes of RE2 and RE3 and loved them.
I know we're probably not going to get it, but I'd prefer a remake of 1 first (yeah I know, it's been done).
There would just be something satisfying about having RE1-RE4 in the RE Engine, which would open up lots of future opportunities.

And what studio do you think is helping with RE4's remake? Your not getting Capcom's A team working on a remake for CV. You'd be lucky to get the studio who worked on 3's remake.
Money. Think about it. Your Capcom... you have a choice for RE games to remake. Do you take the bastard child or the beloved child that has a license to print money? Not a hard choice. An uninspired choice for sure, but I see why Capcom would do it. I dont care too much though, after the perfection that RE4 VR was last year, Ive already come to terms that RE4 REmake wont better it. Still be there day 1 though!
Not really seeing what future opportunities remaking 1 yet again brings to the table. Beyond being another cash grab because it'll totally sell. I can get on board with a VR remake though. 7 and 4 VR showed me that 1 in VR could possibly be the most amazing thing ever.
I legit like Code Veronica. I only played the Dreamcast version and enjoyed it. It is a bit too long, but I think a remake treatment could be great for it. Especially since it is canon and definitely can help clean up some things for the overall timeline of things.
Plus, it had the best knife (outside of RE2's knife that was tied to FPS) out of any RE game.

VR was what I was thinking of. All the RE Engine games now have mods to enable VR.
Even if a RE1 remake didn't officially allow it, it would be modded in soon after release.
I am very much of the opinion that Code Veronica is the worst classic mainline RE game, which is why I very much would like a remake.
Bastard child, the one that has a license to print money is still selling copies and making money. Get some money out of the one that isn't selling ATM. The only thing I'd be apprehensive about, as Capcom, is restoring faith in REmakes after 3 had so much negative reception. Get out 4, a game already beloved, and show that you can make a great REmake still then release the game with less acclaim.
If it was only about already massively success things getting remakes and re-release we wouldn't see nearly the amount of remakes we have. It's about renewing a potential sales source to a modern audience.
RE3 didn't really have problems to iron out, though, not like CV does. And besides RE3 Remake is a really good game, even for its failings as a remake.
2 and 3 need to be fixed first. At least 2 so they can patch in a cohesive campaign and add in all the stuff that was cut.
Capcom didnt need to restore faith in remakes going into 3s release and either way it sold less though still enough from Capcom reports. Capcom knows if they announce a remake of 4, it'll generate hype. And even if its a bad remake or whatever, its selling more than CV even if that's a good remake.
Trust me, I dont want a remake, I dont really care for them at this point. I want RE9 (which hey is coming anyway) and more REvelations styled spinoffs, but Capcom clearly wants to do more remakes. And I really wont be surprised if once 4 is done, they loop back to 1 and remake that. Or remake 5... both to give me the Tyrant boss fight that was cut, and because that did insane numbers as well.
No, of course not, because 2 was excellent. 3 was not well received so I could see not wanting to do Code Veronica, a game already not well-received, and instead going with a fan favorite that they know people will buy. That's the point of "I can see why they'd do 4 over CV after 3", people will buy 4 after 3 but may not buy CV after 3. If 3 was also excellent then no reason not to roll out CV, with 3 being meh then do the thing that will generate its own hype over "Capcom has already done 2 amazing remakes and now it's CV's turn".
Is there anything that says the same team for the REmakes are the same ones working on the proper entrants? If not then the REmakes aren't preventing the timeframe for the numbered and if so then just having more resources doesn't mean a game will release any quicker. No one would be surprised by anything, but it makes less sense to me to not give a second shot to a game that could turn out very good and sell well with a REmake than doing a REmake of a game that already received a well-regarded one.
I mean, yeah :D it needs a full on remake more than RE4 for sure. Change it up here and there and it can be a great entry in the series
Never gonna happen. Capcom's gonna try and do every other online MP idea before revisiting their actual good online MP idea... seriously, Id be there day 1 for a remake (especially as us PAL PS2 owners got an offline RE: Outbreak back in the day...)
Now we have better voice chat, online netcode and services etc. the thing feels like a no brainer. So its bizarre that with how Capcom loves to re-release stuff this hasnt happened!
I'm all for it if they give Claire the same treatment they gave her in the 2 Remake, and then completely and utterly remake Code Veronica so that it's unrecognizable from the original in how they treat Claire.
I'm honestly still surprised they never ported it past the 360 and PS3, especially since Capcom put so much work into that port, bringing the whole game into MT Framework. I don't think there's ever been a PC version actually.
A full-on remake would probably be an improvement. One of Code Veronica's problems was it kind of dragged, pushing the original RE formula past its logical conclusion. This would be a case where trimming the game down would actually benefit.

Having 3rd Person RE2 style remake would be great tho.
We can have both.
It needs a remake because the original was never good. Capcom made the right decision not calling it RE3.
There is a massive potential for improvements for CV Remake… also chronically it is supposed to be no brainer after remaking R2 and R3.
But also can't blame Capcom for jumping directly to R4 since it will be a gold mine for them.
Hopefully they do CV next.

I would have taken first DC Remake over any RE remakes… but Capcom want something to sells multi millions copies like 4-5 and more, DC sadly isn't that popular :-(
RE3R was not really outsourced, at least not in the way you're probably meaning. M-Two is a Capcom studio and the main team also did work on the game in limited capacity. It was a Capcom production.
