7 minutes of Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City NYCC

Konrad from GamerSheep.com writes: "For a Slant Six (Socom) developed game, I have to admit this one looks really promising and fun. As the player you take control one of six playable characters in a four player co-op campaign. The cool thing is that Operation Raccoon City will allow the player to make major “what-if” decisions such as killing Leon Kennedy, one of the main characters of Resident Evil 2 and the protagonist of Resident Evil 4.
TAKE NOTE! The players are running and gunning! Thanks for catching up with the times Capcom."

Looks awesome! I hope Slant Six wont mess it up.

I was waitin for Resident Evil Co-op zombie bashin game ... but normally Im not the kind of person who ever complains about camera angle ... but this game has got zoomed in camera angle which for some reason is makin very uncomfortable for viewing and covers lot of screen area from left.

They have to zoom bit out of characters back when in third person mode and when in scope mode or aim mode they have to do something with characters coverin the complete left side of screen. (I just saw uncharted 3 beta and gears of war 3 in comparison to this game ... they got it right.)

davidmccue4592d ago

Looks like left 4 dead on steriods

Oldman1004592d ago

This looks terrible. Capcom and Slant six seem to have no passion for this franchise. They can go screw themselves with this quick cash in.

dangert124592d ago

Seems like they have created a new genre

'Action Boring Attempt At horror'

ScytheX34592d ago

definitely agree with both of you, seems like crapcom has lost real interest in developing an interesting story and settings 2 games ago (re4, n 5) and just wanna create something for the masses to enjoy rather than stick to what made the franchise, horror, suspense, story, and characters. Just take a look at RE5 Jill and RE Revelations, just about tits and ass when it comes to characters instead of creating a new character with an interesting background and non all TnA they choose a bitch with an emo haircut and showing just as much tits as candy from your local strip club -_-

newhumanbreed4592d ago

Of course they don't. Mikami knew Capcom would milk Resident Evil 4, so he pledged not to port it. This is why the GameCube version was superior to the PS2 port.

Just hope Mikami comes back to Capcom and takes over his franchise again, which I doubt will ever happen. R.I.P. Resident Evil. It's a shame you have to be milked like this.

GillHarrison4592d ago (Edited 4592d ago )

I know a few people that worked on this game, it literally is nothing more than people with no passion just looking for a paycheck. I'm sure there is a few people that appreciate it, but still.

jbiz3304592d ago

ugh.. didnt they mess up SOCOM? pass...

ScytheX34592d ago

lol yeah, also this is pretty much Socom: Z-Day Edition with special guests characters from RE!

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.

MeteorPanda4d 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."

just_looken54d ago

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 :(

andy8554d ago (Edited 54d ago )

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_looken54d 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_looken54d 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.

Cacabunga54d ago

Capcom where is Deep Down???

Tapani54d 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_looken54d 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.

andy8553d ago

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

lellkay54d ago

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

just_looken54d ago (Edited 54d 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

Eonjay54d 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.

Furesis54d ago

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

just_looken54d 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

MrDead54d ago (Edited 54d 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

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH53d 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…
