Resident Evil ORC First Impressions

I would have to disagree with everything you said.

It's just a matter of perspective, I prefer to see the glass half full instead of half empty XD

I don't understand how something can be half full, it's either full or it's not. lol

@Mercy: I agree with all the things that you've pointed out, maybe except for the bosses. If online is really that bad then this game's just a one player campaign, so it may be a beta for Capcom so they can later release something like "ORC complete edition" or "Ultimate ORC" with all the split screen and dlcs, because the game feels empty to me as it is now. BTW, the game played on something harder than normal is a pain in the ass.

Spoiler:

Well lets just say that they've got work to do on the online and DLC's and patches are sure to come once the complaints start rolling in. The only way you can win is if you're cheating using a broken character, but that's only because you're going up against cheating broken character players. They just can't play the game for what it is, they added too much broken mechanics to piss players off. There can't be two of the same character, so if someone chooses your guy you have to suck it up with a class that you're unfamiliar with or second best at.

On the bosses, I don't see what's so fun about shooting, dodging, shooting, healing your idiot AI, but if that's your cup of tea, I can see why you enjoy the boss fights. Though when I was fighting the two Tyrants, I found that Four-Eyes' ability to view enemy health came in handy as one Tyrant came a minute after the other, I could focus my fire on the first one so the next one would be easier to kill.

I get your point, but except for healing the AI (which is really stupid), shoot dodge and shoot is what bosses are all about really

IDK. I was watching Winters play that hospital level, the part where Nicholai is sniping you through that window, and that looked stupid. It lasted forever, and he got shot soooo many times and it just kept on going.

I think the best boss fights got to be somewhat challenging firstly.

Cool presentation. But most importantly, gameplay wise, you need some skillz to be utilized. I think dodging is something that can be cool.

The 2nd Krauser fight in RE4 is a good example. He was all over the place, with his Bow and his TMP and grendes and sneaking up on you with his trademark knife.

It was really cool and fun. Interactive.

Some of the stuff with Birkin was interactive, and I kinda liked it. Like when he knocks you on the ground and you gotta move from side to side while he's trying to smash you with his pipe.

Yeah I didn't like the Nicholai part...although you should play it by yourself....you're not gonna like the final boss too much if you think Nicholai took too many shots...

If it's a Tyrant or something I'm cool with that.

I don't like having to fight too many people shooting at me with guns in RE though. Occasionally it's ok. Alfred, Krauser, etc, but there is a limit.

No, it's Leon and only if you choose to kill him instead of letting him live.

Its fucking sold out everywhere where I live. Gutted. RE5 wasnt even a sell out here so I thought ORC definetly wouldnt be. Must be all the COD freaks.

You're not missing much lol

I know but still, the chance to stroll around Raccoon city whatever the circumstances is always appealing lol.

Actually, it doesn't feel like Raccoon City at all

Everyday my dislike for this game grows. When it first came out I was like "It's not bad" but now I'm starting to hate it. It's a poor man's SOCOM in a Resident Evil wrapper. Kind of like if you put RC Cola into a can of Pepsi. It looks good but in the end you just feel cheap.

I was trying to play through it again, but it really bored me and annoyed me to be honest

Yeah...I saw countless walkthroughs and both endings. Definitely not worth it to me. I might pick up Batman AC instead.

Yeah same here dude, I havent played it since Tuesday, I just dont feel like playing it, instead I want to play Counter-Strike. lol

Arkham City is a much better game for sure

I must be the only one playing online here. It's not that bad when it actually works.. Getting started takes friggin forever because your team gets kicked for no reason, joining a squad and finding a match takes forever, and there are an innumerous amount of glitches and bugs that prevent you from being on your game which includes: Invisible Zombies, Invisible Team, Invisible enemy team, teleporting from place to place, switching guns without actually trying to switch guns, spawning into zombies, Teleporting hunters, and team standing in place when they're actually playing.

I thought it was pretty weird when Ada and Leon kissed though. O.o

Why is that weird? They kissed in Resident Evil 2.

Jesus that blue text is too hard to read!

I haven't played the game yet because I'm not paying $60 lol. I have however seen full game plays and it looks like a lot of fun! The only thing I don't like is that you can't play the Heroes outside of the online mode, and that you can't have offline multiplayer!!!

Totally, heroes mode looked fun to play. Anyway, I finished the game, and

Spoiler:

You know how I ended up killing Leon? Idiot AI. He was standing behind a box and I was ducking under it, he was trying to shoot me and I blind fired all my clips into him until he died. I have to level with you, he killed me four times before that idiot AI saved me from staying up too late. And killing Leon.. Claire.. And running off with Sherry.. I have to admit. It was the most satisfying thing in the game.
