screenscreenshot
- The C-Virus will be the new ultimate “bio-weapon” in this title. - Zombies will now wield axes, pipes and guns. If properly disarmed, these can be used against them. - Zombies can now dash, jump and climb. - Players can move and shoot, run into cover and dive onto the ground and fire while on their backs.
- All new Mercenaries
Mode is available Day 1 for everybody, no DLC stipulations.

- Mercenaries Mode will be Capcom’s boldest, most expansive mode yet
- A tramatic event
occurs in Chris Redfield’s
life during his mission in Lianshang, China. This
completely changes his personality to a more cryptic and pessimistic
Chris Redfield.
- Ada Wong is somehow
responsible for the
Tragic event in China,
which sets Chris on a
rampage after her.
- Wesker’s son’s name is Jake Muller, who is a mercenary fighting in Europe with the goal of earning cash for him and his mother.

- Jake is immune to the
current viral outbreak
and is contacted by
Sherry Birkin in attempt
to convince him to help save the world from the recent catastrophe.
- There are 3 seperate
campaigns combined in one story, all taking
place across the globe: Sherry and Jake, Leon, and Chris.
- Leon’s first mission, taking place in a
University, will be a
throwback to the
original RE games in
which horror and atmospheric tension are the key elements in place.

Resident Evil 6 set for
release October 2nd, 2012

Oo might have to play that first lol! This makes me think Mercs mode might have a bigger roster filled with some of the older characters from the previous games (ex. Jill, Clarie, Billy, Rebecca, etc.). Or a horde mode. Could be both. I just know which character I'm going to spam Mercs mode with X3 .

Hmm, I thought this would be in Eastern Europe. Maybe whatever happens in China ends up breaking Chris completely. Argh! Where is a trailer when you need one? D:

Definitely not doing Leon's scenario on my own. Nope.

then whats the point of begging for RE to be scary again if you're too scared to play it alone?

I didn't beg for RE to be scary. To be honest, I really don't like "the scary" part which is the reason why I never played any of the older games. RE6 will technically be the first "zombie" game I'm going to play since I'll probably pass on ORC. And since that's the case I think I would find it to be more enjoyable and easier to play with a friend. Like how I played RE5 for the first time. Once I get used to it; I'll probably play on my own.

Last screenshot reminds me of MW2..

Didn't they already mention that the more regular type of zombies will be encountered in Leon's scenario, while Chris and Jake will face with some more modified creatures called the J'Avo that are more intelligent than your run-of-the-mill zombies.

From what I've heard, Leon's scenario interests me the most in terms of gameplay.

Leon's scenario, only because of the regular types of zombies.

lol at the last pic,zombies mercenarys is just what whe need

i bet this game is going to turn into shit if leon scenario isnt at less decent in terms
of the horror aspect, because if it is just a couple of "scary" parts/chapters

this is going to turn into resident evil:COD

Don't be so pessimistic. Just wait for the game, play it, and then you're free to bash it as much as you want.

And CoD is actually a really scary series.

i am not really bashing it,i think the game is going to turn ok for the most part
but a zombie dressed has a military guy and holding a machinegun is taking things to far
seriously,what are they doing with the series?i mean if leon scenario isnt achually scary
and all the others are completely action,then this just isnt resident evil anymore
but i am just especulating,whe will just have to wait
but i am not to optimistic about this,i bet it will be a great game,but i doubt that they
will achualy add major horror elements in the game


the only part that i have my hopes up is leon scenario,i know that chris and jakes
will be just like resident evil 5

RE5 was completely action. RE4 was almost completely action. Were those bad games? No. Were they still RE? Yes.

I love the old RE gameplay and I'm looking forward to play Leon's scenario, but if there's no horror in the game, it's not necessarily a 'bad RE game' to me.

Horror does not make a good RE game. It's the gameplay combined with story and characters. If there's some horror thrown in then it's only a plus.

Exactly.

Now that I think about it, it's not the horror that I really miss in the new RE games (especially since REmake is the only RE game that can scare me these days). I loved the fact that you had to use your brain in those games, and I kind of miss that in the new games.

i didnt say they were bad games,afcourse they were great games,i just said that if leon chapter isnt achually
scary or at least has a decent ammount of horror it means that the series frow now on will problably
never return to have some decent ammount of horror in the gameplay,and it becomed just another
shooter and action game with some zombies on it,not that it is a bad thing,but it just means
the series will problably never return to be survivor horror games again,at least not in the same scale
then before

but yeah i agree with thom,the reason i play resident evil is because i love
the story,characters and the gameplay,of both the new games and the old ones

Pretty much sums it up for me.

ThomVD wrote:

This too.

The only time I don't like an RE game is when it's glitchy and not fun to play. So far, none of them have had those problems (aside from ORC and maybe Outbreak).

Resident Evil has always been about playing a really fun and well thought out game. And there's always horror. Every game has monsters that would be terrifying in real life. That's horror right there.

Thing is, I think it's cool that Sherry can kick butt now. Now whenever I play RE2, I'll be like "Hey, in about a decade or so, she'll be killing Zombies. That's pretty cool."

You named it!!! That is 100% correct my friend.

Card games on motorcycles

Am I the only one who used to play RE back in the day because it was friggin scary? the series isn't scary anymore but I still love it. We all came to terms with that when RE5 was released, and we got an awesome throwback with the brief LIN.

What I'm trying to say is, the game won't suck if it's not horror oriented, I'm playing it for the story and characters, but I call bullshit on you guys saying RE was never about horror for you. RE made survival horror happen, and they were the best, but going out of your way and saying that RE never was horror, and the horror it had, all it did was make the game better? RE was Survival Horror, that was it's identity only now it just needed to evolve.

I loved RE for the story, characters, and horror element (REmake, Outbreak 0, and 3 anyway). It's what attracted me to the series. I believe 6 will do great. I'm actually excited to play all 3 scenarios.

They never scare me, the only time they ever did was when I played RE0 for the first time back in 2002, that scared the fuck out of me. REmake had it's moments too.
