WC - The fact you’re alert enough to be reading this suggests that you’re probably aware that the Resident Evil 6 public demo dropped on PSN and XBL this morning, and has already been met with an extremely mixed, some might even say overwhelmingly negative (depending on where you read) reception. Sure, it was plastered with the typical label that it isn’t necessarily representative of the final product, but then, why bother putting a demo out at all?
Is a stupid reason
Alot more people will complain if the characters dnt move
The only things on this list i could agree with is the "zombies with guns"...and maybe the camera. I noticed it was kind of awkward in the demo while running,But I'll just have to get used to it.I'm still looking forward to this game screw "what culture" and their annoying 14 page articles with one or two paragraphs on each page.
1) aiming speed is SOOOOOOOOOOO SLOW and can't be configured
2) can really only sprint straight (meh this one's not too bad)
3) sprinting up or down stairs is slower than walking???? what's that now capcom???????
I think we can find a truce here somewhere.
Of course, he found it loaded and he'd had previous training when he was still a breather.
You can change the aiming speed. The pause menu is muddled up beyond belief.
You have to go into the section that has an eye (the name escapes me) and I think it was in the right hand column, 2nd from bottom. Took me a while to find it.
I'm a little disappointed in Resi 6. Before playing the demo, it was a day 1 purchase. After playing the demo, i'll pick it up when it's a lot cheaper.
IGN/GameInformer could learn from it
But like you said, lot's of people did complain on the fact you can't move and shoot in the previous RE titles which is probably why they changed it.
Not being able to move and shoot is just unrealistic.. and annoying imo
Of course, I didn't read the article because any story that spreads their articles into 14 pages just to get clicks is not worth my time.
i loved 5 but this is now a not buy for me.
On topic : I wasnt sold on the demo at all, everything was very...clunky. Aiming felt weird, it was all very closed in and the sprint was annoying.
14 f&&(/)ing pages!
IGN/GameInformer could learn from it.
Actually your not it's been in the top 100 on Amazon's pre-order list for over a month and currently sits at number 17.
True fans of the series are loving it and the loud mouth haters make it seem like they won't buy it and that it sucks. Truth is they will buy it and it doesn't suck.
In all my years here and on other gaming social sites I've come to find that roughly 90% of comments come from people who can't afford the games at full price, are new to gaming and think CoD is god of gaming, are under 15 and yet know everything about gaming except who actually makes the games and last but not least have opinions about everything that they know nothing about.
What to take away from this people who hate do so to get attention because they don't get it where they want it so they are miserable and don't want to be alone so they try to make others just as miserable.
Please define true fan of the series. As a true fan of the series and someone who was hooked from the very first opening scene of the first resident evil, I must say that after the E3 footage of seeing a zombie get his head literally kicked off, I haven't so much as bothered to read any more info. Not hating on you, I'm just curious as to what it is about this game that true fans can get excited about.
@imalwaysright:
Spot on with everything you mentioned as to why RE5 was a pile of rubbish. I couldn't believe they had those zombie like things carrying rocket launchers.
i also agree with everything imalwaysright said.
that said, even though id prefer the games to go back to what they used to be ( RE1-3 ) it is what it is, no amount of whining is going to change that. ill buy this one and although i likely wont enjoy it as much as the old ones, ill likely enjoy it as much as 5, which was a decent game.
perhaps one day ill get lucky and they will make an RE game with resident evil 4's updated gameplay and polish, objectives and atmosphere as well as boy/girl campaign from RE2, and a nemesis like boss from 3. that, imo, would be the perfect RE game. no more firefights, no more co-op nonsense, no more Micheal bay action scenes. survival horror with those previous things i mentioned. until then, ill play w/e rubbish they put out
Just what in the friggin' hell are you smoking, son?!
Ive played every game in the series, and for the most part i liked them.
After playing RE6 demo, unfortunately, this will be the first RE game i will not be playing/buying.
It just simply doesnt feel like RE anymore.
Sorry Capcom, u wont be getting my money this time.
I know stupid right....you try and help people out and you get bubbled down for it.

Actually if you have been following the series from the very beginning the original T-Virus was designed as a bio weapon that would bring back the dead. As Umbrella made superior versions in part 2 and 3 they started to weaponize it think Mr.X and the Tyrant. All of this was leading up to undead soldiers.
Like I said this path was laid out from the very beginning of the franchise...knowing the history of the series helps you to better understand why the changes have been made.
Playing RE5 was a big let down, I mean why do these back from the dead zombies have to shoot you with AK's and bazookas while riding dirt bikes and trucks - those things in RE5 were not zombies but homeless people on bath salts.
1 graphics
2 map is too helpfull
3 you can move while shooting
4 lame obsticles
5 clunky triggers
6 boring objectives
7 over genorous loot
8 poor mini games
9 zombies with guns
10 team mate revival
11 too many weapons
12 hand to hand combat
13 controls and camera
14 inventory
people complained that RE5 didnt do this and said it sucked for it.....now it does it and people are complaining??? wtf make up your minds....
no matter what japanese company you are, you will be bashed by stupid idiots whether you fix the problems or not
^^^ THIS!!! i loved the demo, the game is going to be fantastic!
if anything will save the bashing of this pile of shit thats leon only
Anyway, I didn't like Chris or Jake's campaign as they don't feel like Resi at all, just some cover shooter with COD elements...
However, I was impressed with Leon's section so because of that I caved in to temptation and pre-ordered it.
Chris campaign felt more like gears of war and war games , the best one was the first one was the best , i love how the pistol shoot :)
Silly me... a few days later and I was in a world of disappointment. Again. I'm too trustfull.
The Javo with guns have terrible AI
Cover system is shit
Camera is weird
But thats really it, its fluid and it works.
People can keep crying about what its not but i choose to focus on what it is, and its fun. I could have sworn thats what we play games for but i guess thats just me.
BTW the Javo arent zombies, so thats a mute point
There's just so much wrong with the game that it's tragic, with the absolute nadir being Chris' portion. It's sad to see that this is what the Resi series has been reduced to now.
God awful controls...wow you must be joking the controls are simple, easy to pick up and master, cover is simple...using the brandish button while up against a wall makes the transition from firing outside of cover to taking cover while walking super smooth.
You need to take some more time with the mechanics because i was kicking ass since the first demo came out.
Also you show you don't know the roots of the series the bio threats of massive level have been there since part one...
Again know the roots weaponizing the zombies has been the goal of Umbrella since day want...Mr. X says hi.
When did you get into gaming yesterday...step the game up because it's clear you haven't been following the series longer than a day.
Quit trolling the RE6 articles it makes you look like an asshat and it's disrespectful to the 3 people that read your god awful capcom funded PR website.
It's run and gun, not survival puzzle horror
thanks Capcom,thanks a lot !
Now that you f***ed this one up,can you bring monster hunter to the Vita & Megaman Legends 3 ?
I mean a while ago zombies weren't suppose to run but when they did they became more awesome.
Ummm..no they weren't awesome at all Resident Evil wise,if I wanted a running zombie I would play a game like Left for Dead,at least that game is optimized to handle quick gameplay and is somewhat generic(no offense!)..
RE on the other hand was a really great horror game with puzzle solving and a great story till they pulled of RE4 then things went down hill from there..! agree or disagree,that's a fact,since then we never had zombies & now they are bringing them back but they can run and hold guns for F*** sake,how would anyone think that that is a RE game is beyond me ! :|
The RE franchise went down the generic road and I don't think it's coming back which is a shame.
