More "new forms" of Resident Evil games may be coming, is this a good thing?

Rely on Horror: "People are upset with Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, especially loyal Resident Evil fans. There’s no denying that fact. Slant Six’s entry into the multi-million dollar franchise aims to once again re-invent the series with a tweaked, squad-based gameplay system. Though we already know that Capcomm has expressed their freedom to experiment with the series through their non-numbered “spin-off” entries, could there be more Resident Evil titles heading our way to offer drastic departures from what we’ve been used to?"

Resident Evil racer!!!
Resident evil pool
Resident Evil pinball

those above were just a joke :)

Resident Evil Rpg (hey really make a good turn based J-RPG!) :)

RedDead4717d ago

Star wars did it, and the best Star wars games are made by different devs. RTS, RPG, flight sim and Battlefront

GrieverSoul4717d ago

Dont worry guys!
RE Operation Raccoon City will be a flop. The critics will tear the game apart because of the bronken gameplay. You know, you have seen the video. The Umbrella Corps can run and gun and Capcom stated the fact that run and gun doesnt provide accuracy while shooting. So why bother with this game? Its broken before its even out.

See what I did here?! :)

I think Resident Evil needs to go back to its roots. Loading stair steps and doors included. There needs to be an actual element of HORROR.

Venoxn4g4717d ago

I want more new REs with old good fixed camera.. it added horror :)

bronxsta4717d ago (Edited 4717d ago )

They just don't understand do they?
I'm not the biggest fan of RE but love slow-paced survival horror.

All we want is a scary, sweat-inducing experience that's low on ammo and high on zombies and pants-shitting moments.

If they want to reboot the series, start fresh and cut away all the convoluted plots, fine. Just make it scary and tense and not focused on action.

Instead of making Operation Raccoon City why didnt they make a new Resident Evil outbreak.

Hey Capcom I want a remake of Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2 on Switch or, maybe Switch 2. I loved both of those games on GameCube.

MeteorPanda5d ago

Good. capcom and square enix were my two favourite developers and now it's just CapCom! Square enix keeps missing the mark, their sparks gone.

Capcom Is 'Aware' of Dragon's Dogma 2 Frame Rate Issues on PC

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 :(

Man have we dropped that quality bar for acceptable performance/optimization

Am I hearing that right, that reviewer with a 4090 is getting drops into the 20s when there's several NPC on screen. Sorry but there's zero excuse for that. BG3 had hundreds at a time on screen and that's a pretty game. What an absolute piss poor engine

just_looken55d ago

@andy

Yes the is correct but every review is giving it a past and or saying that its great that the performance is like the first ps3/xbox one game.

2012 20-30fps 2024 20-30fps dragons dogma keeping things the same reviewers like that apparently

just_looken55d ago

IGN put up a video showing the 4090 struggling aswell as console performance all versions are like the first game with fps issues.Remember dlss 3.0 can almost double your fps like that cyber punk video so without dlss on your looking at 30fps on the most powerful gpu that is out right now.

Capcom where is Deep Down???

Tapani55d ago

@andy85 At launch BG3 dropped to under 30fps at the final chapter on 4090. I played the game at launch and had that experience. And that was with a 5800X3D. Everything watercooled and fine-tuned CPU/GPU and memory at 32GB with good timings, and a fast SSD etc.

just_looken55d ago

@tapani

I am sorry are we comparing a AA game with a small budget with alot going on 24/7 to a AAA game funded buy the billion dollar capcom?

You are right yes but that was patched and that team loves there community but if the first dogma said anything we should expect a patch or 2 but that is it.

andy8554d ago

@Tapani indeed but that was hundreds of NPCs. Not a few. It's piss poor

Can they be aware of the need for 60fps on consoles plz

just_looken55d ago (Edited 55d ago )

Oh no kidding that "pro" model better have a 60fps mode.

But that ps5 pro PSSR will no doubt be a hold back as i see very few devs make a fsr/dlss/pssr game like really sony why did you spend millions to make upscale tech on the 6800 when amd already has fsr 3.0 just sitting there.

I remember the ps4 pro patches that dwindle over time yes new games had the modes but they were not standard and that was without the base ps4 using another upscale tech.

Edit:

In tldr form devs now make fsr upscale for ps5/xbox PSSR upscale tech on ps5 pro game then dlss/fsr upscale tech pc version and we also have intels xess just insane workload

Eonjay55d ago

'Oh no kidding that "pro" model better have a 60fps mode.'

Perhaps but only if Capcom addresses the issues first. substantially more powerful hardware is struggling.

Furesis55d ago

I mean it's not helping but this is something more than that. Plenty of games with denuvo that work fine

just_looken55d ago

That could be also taxing for sure sense the ps5 also supports that dreadful drm

This is also running off the RE engine remember those re vids with the denuvo drm on/off

MrDead55d ago (Edited 55d ago )

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

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH54d ago

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…
