Resident Evil Outbreak in March

wow.....this game sucks. if they dont add communication (voice or typing) this game simply cannot be played. i was on for about an hour and refuse to put it in my system again. where can we send our "reports"?

So far, is the beta anything like this:

???

Saw this awhile back and thought it was pretty funny.

It wouldn't be like that at all, because you cant talk to the other players.

Doesn't look like you can choose you teammates

i thought they said that they weren't going to do that from the start. they want it to be so that you never really know whether or not your teammates are real or AI controlled. hence one of the reasons why they didn't add voice and opted for the mix and match dialogue instead.

more impressions though. thanks.

Log into the underground. There is a beta tab up top.


-About the communication. They can't use voice or typing. That would ruin the game. All it would take is one guy who has finished or came close to finished the level, to tell everybody how to solve every puzzle or simply walk everybody through the level ("follow me", "do this", etc)...where is the fun in that. The true appeal of RE has never been the action.

The AI controlled characters are non-selectable characters, so you know who they are.

I'd be certain the lack of voice, is to keep from ruining the puzzle elements.

Regardless it just isn't FUN. I don't have as much time as I used to for games, and I'm sure as hell not going to waste time on one that I don't enjoy.

yeah i like the idea, its just not fun as chux said. and i went to the beta test board and its worse than here with repeat threads

Then they shoulda redesigned the game, or not made it at all. Capcom's just been lazy here. This game is bullshit.

so the final has been out in japan how long. i know the disc says v1 but i think the game is done and theyre just stress testing the servers.

I played a bit of this at the last E3--it had some really interesting gaming ideas like really forcing co-op on you and but it felt really slow--plus you could at least communicate with the people in the kiosk next to you. I think the lack of any proper communication is pretty dumb. Theres only like 10 preset things you can say like Yes, No, Come Here, Give Item, etc. Also the game is HARD. Death comes all too easy. The Random Enemy and Item placement is cool but some of the item fetching stuff is really tedious. I still want to like this game though...it doesn't really seem like a must have app with or without the hard drive.

"My life is shit" Jim said that when I hit the square button. Only redeeming thing about this game if you ask me.
