[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;51739706]Weird, mind showing your other settings such as if you're using SSAO or HBAO? If the ghosting artifacts look like shadows rather than transparent leftovers of objects, it could be related to that setting. If you are using HBAO, try turning it off or use SSAO instead, unless resolution scale 1.3 or higher than that is completely playable for you frame rate wise.[/QUOTE] [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/89345506872344306/2CA304263B9B439BC0CCFB5C0BBE44704432FF5D/[/t][t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/89345506872344476/603452B07B8716010DF9368ACE9748D3569284B4/[/t][t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/89345506872344604/50DD36FCECA3CE9B1C527663C0F157A8D9E6372E/[/t]

[QUOTE=Rusty100;51739908][sp]how is he not being controlled when he's infected? his limbs grow back.[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]same reason why ethan isn't controlled. ~magic plot~[/sp]

[QUOTE=PotatoArmada;51739916]Ya that's very similar to what I'm getting on resolution scale: 1.[/QUOTE] Ah, I get that similar ghosting when using the HBAO+ setting, but it's gone for me when I use SSAO. Maybe I just didn't notice it due to SSAO handling ambient occlusion differently so I may still have the same issue. Have you tried with ambient occlusion off on your end and see if it still happens on resolution scale 1?

Did anyone else get their brightness all fucked up after the HDR update?

[QUOTE=LTJGPliskin;51738069]I found a book called "Fighting Street" in the Old House. "Fighting Street" was the name of the shitty TurboGrafx port of the first Street Fighter.[/QUOTE] there's also books called "Wartime Journalism" and [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_Home_(video_game)"]"Beautiful Home"[/URL] [QUOTE=Rusty100;51739908][sp]how is he not being controlled when he's infected? his limbs grow back.[/sp][/QUOTE] [QUOTE=BeardyDuck;51739926][sp]same reason why ethan isn't controlled. ~magic plot~[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]the "third party" gave Lucas a serum to resist her so he can monitor her for them.

can i have the pc vrsion by buying the xbox one one?

jesus fuck this game, i have to play it little bit by little bit to give my heart a rest. i screamed like a bitch when [sp]you get the arm in the old house and on the way back out theres a monster behind a door[/sp]

[QUOTE=autodesknoob;51740235]can i have the pc vrsion by buying the xbox one one?[/QUOTE] Yeah, you'll have to download the PC version from the Windows Store.

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;51740276]Yeah, you'll have to download the PC version from the Windows Store.[/QUOTE] oh cool, its just that i want to have it physical, but i dont have an Xbox one nor a disc reader for my pc lol. That shouldnt be a problem right?

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;51739926][sp]same reason why ethan isn't controlled. ~magic plot~[/sp][/QUOTE] To be fair, the same could be said of any Resident Evil protagonist and the fact that they are seemly the only ones immune to whatever magic bullshit is going on at the time. At least Resident Evil 7 sort of has a reason for it.

[QUOTE=autodesknoob;51740538]oh cool, its just that i want to have it physical, but i dont have an Xbox one nor a disc reader for my pc lol. That shouldnt be a problem right?[/QUOTE] I had to check real quick and sadly this doesn't work with a physical copy unless the copy comes with a download voucher. [quote][url=http://www.windowscentral.com/xbox-play-anywhere-faq]Does Xbox Play Anywhere work with physical copies?[/url] No, it does not. As described to us by Aaron Greenberg, Microsoft's Xbox marketing chief: "It is specific to digital because we have to be able to associate your account with the product. When you purchase ReCore digitally in the Windows 10 Store on Xbox One, that game will be tied to your account. When you go between multiple devices, we'll be able to say "this is your game, this is your game library." We're only able to do that digitally today." If you want to take advantage of Xbox Play Anywhere you need to have a digital copy of the game. Either by purchasing directly from the Xbox Store on your console or by using a download voucher from your favorite retailer. [/quote]

[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;51740724]I had to check real quick and sadly this doesn't work with a physical copy unless the copy comes with a download voucher.[/QUOTE] how sad, its still real strange for me that pc games arent being sold on discs now.

[QUOTE=Eonart;51740374][sp]Actually it's because her control takes a while to settle in, you can see it in some documents and Ethan only starts to get major symptoms (hallucinations) at the end of the game[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]People with strong mental fortitude can resist her control too [/sp]

[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;51740741][sp]People with strong mental fortitude can resist her control too [/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]I mean after Mia tells you all the shit Ethan pretty much despises the shit out of Eveline, so I'm pretty sure his developing massive hate boner for her had some part in him not getting controlled in the end once his hallucinations became severe[/sp]

Just finished the game myself too. I have mixed feelings about this. Was really hooked with family stuff in the beginning and really wanted to know why everything happens the way it is, but wasn't really impressed in the end. As for gameplay, it actually felt alot like classic Resident Evil, but because of that some parts of the game felt really tedious for me - just seeking for keys while avoiding enemies. Also the game felt kinda difficult for me at first with how many few items and bullets I had, and then after first major boss fight (which I had real problems with) everything became much easier - much more items, half of which I didn't even use in the end. Anyway, it was great but not sure if I'm going to enjoy getting platinum trophy for this - it requires speedrun and madhouse difficulty though.

I feel like a lot of the criticisms people have for 7 are applicable to the classic games as well, but people still bring them up because they're just so used to the series being third person shooters.

To me it just feels like RE1 but in first person which is a good thing for me

I just got to the greenhouse. That shit is horrifying.

Managed to figure out what was causing most of the ghosting. My monitor has some "overdrive" option that was causing it and it somehow turned itself on at some point. What little ghosting is left is probably just from all the post-processing. [editline]28 January, 2017[/editline] Pretty sure the cause for ghosting is actually the game ready driver for nvidia cards. Had absolutely horrible ghosting and artifacts in other games. Had to roll back, but now the game runs like shit. Not getting lucky with this game.

beat madhouse mode. infinite ammo magnum rampages feel good

So I only just realised it now but the DLC that is coming out the 31st is only out for PS4, PC and Xbox players have to wait until like the 21st of Feb. What the shit capcom.

I can't pin down why but the Revelations series feel very lifeless, almost as if they're unimportant in the grand scheme of the Resident Evil universe. Not to say they aren't good games, but Revelations 2 has no long lasting flavour to it at all IMO. May have something to do with how heavily it relies on call backs and 'member berries.
