The Resident Evil brand has seen an identity crisis in recent years. Word is that it's getting back to survival horror roots. Where should it go? Take a look for my opinion.
Dragon's Dogma 2 continues Capcom's hot streak of favorably reviewed games as the studio lands first on Metacritic's top publishers ranking.
Responding to a query about frame rate problems from IGN, Capcom said in a statement that performance issues on PC may be linked to the heavy amount of CPU demanded from NPCs in the game.
"In Dragon's Dogma 2, a large amount of CPU usage is allocated to each character and dynamically calculates the impact of their physical presence in various environments. In certain situations where numerous characters appear simultaneously, the CPU usage can be very high and may affect the frame rate," a Capcom representative told IGN. "We are aware that in such situations, settings that reduce GPU load may currently have a limited effect; however, we are looking into ways to improve performance in the future."
What a load of bull there blaming the npc load for there poor performance? the new hitman games has way more going on beyond that they are saying any pc cpu is not powerful enough?
In the article it is also stated a ign reviewr got motion sickness playing ps5/pc version but still enjoyed it? like wow if that was me i would knock it down alot and asked for a patch asap.
So those about to play thank denuvo get a barf bucket if your on pc play 720p because like cites skyline its going to be a unoptimized cpu mess.
Man those on series s/steam deck/rog ally rip :(
Project Zomboid a simple looking isometric game has a similar problem as the Zombies are CPU heavy. If this is the issue GPU tweeks won't do anything, you need less calculations per NPC or more static NPCs
Well that’s just great…looks like I’ll be holding off on buying this on PC until it’s fixed. If I wanted low frame rates I’d just buy it in console smh…
Capcom Boosts Starting Salaries in Japan by Over 25%! Strategic move to attract top talent and align with industry trends amid economic inflation.
Well there is a lot of laid off talent out there. Very smart of them to target that. Plus if it’s in Japan, that’s a great place to live.
I really approve of Capcom for doing this and will show my appreciation by supporting them. There are a few Capcom games I need to get... and this includes Dragon's Dogma 2. Support companies that support the people working in the industry over shareholders! REMEMBER: Shareholder's don't make games!
25% sounds like a lot, but it's from $1,560 to $2000 per month. That's $24,000 a year. Unless u became a monk, that is below poverty line.
back to survive horror
Onto the shelf of discontinued IP's.
Semi-Reboot
First game will be a remake of the first RE, few things will be different. Mansion dosen't blow up in the end
Zombies/experiments wander into Raccoon City earlier just a day or two when STARS get back
Raccoon City event happens much earlier since events have changed. STARS members are involved in Raccoon City incident
Second game will be much different since Leon will arrive when the quarantine is happening. He sees Claire trying to break in to save her brother and decides to help her, Ada tags along to help find her "boyfriend" John. So really you could have at least three games inside Raccoon City, basically the Raccoon City incident could last nearly an entire gen. Claire could end up getting separated from Leon.
Resident Evil 2: Raccoon City - Leon/Ada
Resident Evil 2: Raccoon City Part II - Claire/Carlos
Resident Evil 2: Raccoon City Part III - STARS Team (Where Nemesis is finally destroyed by them)
Obviously not a year after each other like AC. Least then by the time it reaches Resident Evil 3 the games will be changed so much they will have brand new stories.
Best part about this is that we get to play as the characters we love
Capcom fixes it's own story they messed up
Can get rid of the Plagas
Can return to it's survival horror roots
At the end of the day it will basically be an alternative timeline kind of like what JJ Abrams did with Star Trek, same characters, different outcomes. However I'm not saying do what Ninja Theory did to DMC, they changed EVERYTHING.
i love Resident Evil the first ones on gamecube were the best inside the mansion. That was when Resident Evil was actually Resident Evil not this nonsense we have now.
i would like to see a reboot with a return to survival. and id love to see the end of forced coop partners. coop, AI or actual people, should be optional.
