Resident Evil Megathread: COMPLETE GLOBAL SATURATION! - Games

[QUOTE=Zeos;51722101]Game still looks really blurry for some reason[/QUOTE] it's the FXAA

Post-game content spoiler: [sp]I went back to an earlier save to try out the Albert pistol. It took me 6 headshots to kill one mold! Was it a particularly strong enemy or is the gun that weak?[/sp]

Alright, I'm stuck [sp]Got the shotgun and the scorpion key, as well as went to the room behind the fake wall but the rest of the doors in the basement are locked and I've explored everywhere else.[/sp]

So I'm at the Old House. [sp]Is that fucking alien in the suitcase.[/sp]

Lategame tape thing I noticed. [sp]In the Happy Birthday tape when Lucas is pushing the keypad it makes RE2 menu noises.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Man in the Moon;51720170]anyone else getting some really frequent micro stutters? the [sp]guest house[/sp] section ran like butter but now I'm in the main house and it's really noticeable[/QUOTE] i'm getting really bad stuttering in the main house though i think it might be due to some issues in my system [editline]25th January 2017[/editline] it looks like the stutters are associated with a CPU drop, looking at the task manager when i have it running

About four hours in now, just got [sp] outside and I saved in Zoe's trailer[/sp] man this game is Soooo good at atmosphere it literally oozes it. And man that fucking [sp] chainsaw fight ending, I've never felt uncomfortable while playing a videogame, but that did it. [/sp] It's just fucking incredible all around. Also for another name drop, There's a book titled "the Abyss" or something along that nature By "Clive O'Brian" in the livingroom, Clive was the captain of the BSAA During Resident Evil Revelations.

caved and bought it yesterday the way it handles areas and the things within them are pretty smart. i'm pleased enough so far! [sp] though, i'd say whoever is saying it's not like outlast or outmanuvering a seemingly invincible enemy is sorta wrong in my books. but again, just saw my first lil' mold monster, so maybe i'm full of junk. probably am. [/sp]

[QUOTE=Exploders;51721118]HUNK's face has been shown before tho? RE3 ending screen one. [t]http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/9/95/Resident_Evil_3_Epilogue_8_Hunk.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20111224154352[/t] Outbreak version [t]http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/residentevil/images/7/7f/Hunk.png/revision/latest?cb=20101117135237[/t][/QUOTE] [t]http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/remitonton/imgs/9/1/91c8f343.jpg[/t] Don't forget Umbrella Chronicles. [sp]It looks the most like "Redfield"[/sp]

To those of you who've played RE7 at this point, can anyone tell me if this is the kind of game one should play alone, or could it be played with friends without messing up the experience?

Just beat it. (big spoilers obv) [sp]So what was with that ending? Obviously you finish off Eveline with the Samurai Edge, which is massive fanservice. But why was Chris working with Umbrella? Did the BSAA just absorb it and use the name themselves? Or is Chris basically working for the baddies now? And I gave the serum to Zoe, what changes if I give it to Mia?[/sp] Overall I really liked the game, though. It was survival horror, plain and simple. It's first person Resident Evil. Pretty short though, wish it was longer. [sp]So was the ghost girl from Beginning Hour just an attempt to throw everyone off about the plot?[/sp] [QUOTE=Spacewolf;51723532]To those of you who've played RE7 at this point, can anyone tell me if this is the kind of game one should play alone, or could it be played with friends without messing up the experience?[/QUOTE] Either one is fine, really. If you want to shit your pants, play it alone, in the dark. But with friends, I'd imagine it would be more fun and entertaining. Like a party game, everyone gets scared at once, you all laugh. [editline]25th January 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Ray551;51719555]Second boss spoilers [sp]Spider-Maguerite was fucking horrifying.[/sp][/QUOTE] I like how [sp]her weakness was literally bug nest FUPA[/sp]

[QUOTE=Spacewolf;51723532]To those of you who've played RE7 at this point, can anyone tell me if this is the kind of game one should play alone, or could it be played with friends without messing up the experience?[/QUOTE] that depends on what you and your friends do while you play I explicitly chose to not play it with someone because I immediately lose atmosphere and focus if I can't get invested in the game world

Beat normal and madhouse just now. Good game, last third is bad though.

[editline]25th January 2017[/editline] I like how [sp]her weakness was literally bug nest FUPA[/sp][/QUOTE] ending spoilers don't click [sp]going to be explained in dlc, but umbrella is "gone" at this point. the plot of umbrella corps is that other groups are plundering infested umbrella labs to loot their secrets. this could easily be one of those factions, with nu-wesker running the show + somebody just using the redfield name[/sp] [sp]if you choose mia you skip the mia boss fight, mia secures the serum, and mia is alive and on the chopper.[/sp] [editline]25th January 2017[/editline] also i'm wondering if anybody else noticed "clive r. o'brian" (revelations) and "alyssa ashcroft" (outbreak)

I just wanted to ask 1 thing: Is there a zombie anywhere in the game?

[QUOTE=hakimhakim;51723985]I just wanted to ask 1 thing: Is there a zombie anywhere in the game?[/QUOTE] [Sp]No, you have enemies called the molded, which are the new common enemy, there are different variants of them, way more terrifying than zombies IMO[/sp]

Does anyone know if moving your steam cloud save files out of the folder, creating a new one and then replacing that would cause issues with the anti-tamper system they have in place? I am having the issue of being locked in on 1 save file max, with the autosave as backup. EDIT: welp void that, it fixed itself apparently?

[QUOTE=hakimhakim;51723985]I just wanted to ask 1 thing: Is there a zombie anywhere in the game?[/QUOTE] No classical "walking corpse" ones here. [sp]But molded are basically the same both technically and in-universe, they just look like regeneradors.[/sp] This isn't a spoiler because early trailers as well as demo featured them. [sp]Only four monster types is disappointing, not helping that 2 molded variants look basically the same and other 2 monsters (bugs and more bugs) are only in one small section of the game[/sp]

[QUOTE=hakimhakim;51723985]I just wanted to ask 1 thing: Is there a zombie anywhere in the game?[/QUOTE] The definition of zombie has gotten so lose in Resident Evil that you could even just call the Bakers zombies at this point in the context of RE.

second boss/greenhouse spoilers/question [sp]whats the best non-ammo using way to kill marguarite? i am a hoarder. also the nerve gas grenades don't seem to do anything? do they work?[/sp]

[QUOTE=Mech Bgum;51724181]Amazing beginning, shit ending.[/QUOTE] How is it shit? [sp]You kill the Bakers, find out what happened to make them that way and take out the thing that caused it. Everything gets wrapped up and resolved perfectly.[/sp]

[QUOTE=Rusty100;51724116]second boss/greenhouse spoilers/question [sp]whats the best non-ammo using way to kill marguarite? i am a hoarder. also the nerve gas grenades don't seem to do anything? do they work?[/sp][/QUOTE] One advice - don't hoard stuff. Use shotgun and pistol as much as you like there's won't be any shortage of ammo even if you kill everyone on sight (assuming you only get headshots with each shot). Also never craft regular ammo for pistol - only strong. [sp]Flamer is useless beyond second boss, don't bother crafting and/or picking up ammo for it. Nerve gas isn't that much stronger than regular grenade.[/sp] By the endgame I had around 1000 bullets because I was hoarding and denied myself fun of shooting my way out. [editline]25th January 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Mech Bgum;51724181]Amazing beginning, shit ending.[/QUOTE] More like boring beginning, great ending. [editline]25th January 2017[/editline] [sp]Although I was upset by the fact they replaced traditional rocket launcher with Wesker pistol. Killing last huge-ass boss with RPG is a long-standing tradition goddammit![/sp]

Man... they probably should have gotten a different voice actress for Zoe, her accent is completely random and goes English, then Cajun, then Southern in the same sentence

Talking about hording did anyone else get the [sp]SMG in the ship? That thing basically completely replaces the pistol, since its ammo is really easy to find and you can carry a ton of it and it feels about as strong as the pistols do.[/sp]

I can't get over how this is just an old RE game but in first person. Like down to even how the encounters are planned. The knife even feels exactly like what doing the dumb old swings would

[QUOTE=Zeos;51724415]I can't get over how this is just an old RE game but in first person. Like down to even how the encounters are planned. The knife even feels exactly like what doing the dumb old swings would[/QUOTE] and is it just me or did the [sp]chainsaw fight[/sp] play REALLY similarly to the first Garrador in RE4 [editline]25th January[/editline] also this might be me projecting but the final boss looks a lot like [sp]The Dunwich Horror[/sp]

I love how [sp]Mia's knife[/sp] is actually kind of powerful.
