>RE6 counters and quickshots are backKINO
>>731000524>>RE6 counters and quickshots are backI know you're samefagging your own thread, but nothing in any of the previews even remotely implied that.Leon's action is just different animations for the same melee prompts.
>>731001038You can literally watch the footage, he does a counter on the chainsaw guy and he performs a quickshot while surrounded by several enemies
god i wish i had a platonic bro friendship with leon, he’s so hot
>>731001179> he does a counter on the chainsaw guyA pre-baked animation for that specific scenario. There's zero indication that was real gameplay.>and he performs a quickshot while surrounded by several enemiesHe doesn't.
>>731001248>A pre-baked animation for that specific scenarioNo it isn't, you can literally tell its gameplay because the animation gets cancelled prematurely, he counters just as the zombie is about to start swinging his chainsaw
>>731001365There's no counter occurring there.It's pretty obviously just an alternate outcome for that enemy, where if you deal enough damage his chainsaw explodes and Leon kills him. There's nothing indicating that this is a gameplay interaction rather than a finisher.
>>731001516>There's nothing indicating that this is a gameplay interaction rather than a finisher.He literally dodges around him as he's swinging, just like how RE6 counters worked
>>731001632And again, there's no indication that this is a counter.The fact that the chainsaw falls away from the enemy, with no interaction from Leon shown, indicates that this is just a setpiece. Additionally, current RE games display those type of interactions in the game's UI, which again, is not shown here.
>>731001712>indicates that this is just a setpiecethe hud is literally on screen, there's blatant animation cancelling going on, and Leon even loses a bullet when he performs the move, you're actually retarded if you think this is just a scripted set piece
>>730997823leon, I dont think he was infected
>>731001756Yeah, because that's the retarded special gun shared between Leon and Grace.It's more likely that that has special properties that cause a unique kill animation, rather than them introducing RE6 counters and just never talking about it and having zero gameplay indicators in the HUD (which they have had for literally every other significant mechanic in the series since the remake of 2).
>>731001712You are now aware that all combat, counters and finishers are scripted because it is a video game.
>>731001905Are you being retarded on purpose?A counter is a unique gameplay interaction. It's scripted in the literal sense, but it is something engaged with by the player that can be engaged with at any opportunity that allows for it.The webm is showing a very clearly static, pre-baked scenario, again, likely unique to that weapon (which is why Leon switches to it before the kill shot).
>>731001038We don't really know how they work yet. There's no stamina bar unless they've purposely programmed it to be invisible in the showcase. I don't get what allows Leon to just do a cinematic point blank shot, he seems to do it at will when the enemy is not even stunned or attacking. It looked like a counter when he goes behind the zombie and shoots him with the magnum, but then wtf is the hatchet's parry for?
>>731001990>The webm is showing a very clearly static, pre-baked scenarioNo it isn't, the zombie literally drops the chainsaw out of nowhere because its fucking gameplay
>>731001225He's too good to waste his time with normal people. Even the developer in a recent interview said they probably wouldn't be able to be friends.
>>731002061The zombie dropping the chainsaw shows that it's a static scenario- that this is something that happens at the end of the fight, a la Jack always knocking Ethan down next to Mia. There is no gameplay interaction from the player akin to a counter initiating the dropping of the chainsaw.>>731002028Again, it's likely tied to the unique shared weapon rather than any actual deep gameplay mechanic, hence why Leon switches to it before that happens.
>>731001365The timing for this seems weird, I guess since they swing the chainsaw very abruptly, that was the very last second you trigger the counter attack. But what is the hatchet parry for now, we're just going to have 2 different counters? I also hope it's not too centralized. RE4 remake didn't have 1 central defensive mechanic. Some attacks you can parry, some you have to physically avoid.
>>731002104They've literally showed him performing takedowns with other guns too, it's clearly a gameplay mechanic
>>731002147>The timing for this seems weirdThe counter window in RE6 was huge too because the game is gonna be designed around people playing at sub 30 fps
>>731002168And again, it all seems to be pre-baked interactions, it's just the one you posted is so obviously that. Go watch the full gameplay and he literally switches weapons, aims, and then it transitions to a takedown which implies that this was because of the weapon being fired, not a counter.It's more likely just to be a take on Chris' block into haymaker system from RE7 but with when you aim and shoot your gun.
>>731001516Leon hadn't even shot him for a few seconds, nor did he ever shoot his chainsaw, and the zombie was about to attack when Leon did the counter. What looks like happened is since Leon successfully triggered the counterattack, the zombie just awkwardly drops the chainsaw and submits himself to the counterattack since they probably didn't animate every outcome.
>>731002267>grabs in fighting games are now "pre-baked interactions"This is just mind on contrarianism brainrot, you're literally arguing about nothing
>>731002363I'm arguing that this obviously isn't a counter, it's just a standard gameplay interaction with a flashy scene.
>>731002460It's blatantly a generic counter move that can also be used on regular zombies hence why he just randomly drops the chainsaw, you have no idea how actual scripted flashy animations look
>>731002635If it was, there'd be a flashy HUD indicator like with the parry.
What is the lore reason behind all the zombies having goofy ass giant mouths with fish lips? Seriously they all have giant mouths.
>>730997823have twitter melt down over this yet?
Why can't Crapcom settle on what fucking genre RE has to be?
>>731002898Because fans keep kvetching about how everyone wants survival horror RE but sales say otherwise
>>731002898Why should they settle on a single genre?
>>731002821That's just an average African American gentleman.
>>731002785that's because the parry mechanic already exists, Capcom often makes more in-depth mechanics promptless because they know it just confuses casual players
>>730997823too based for 2026
>>731001834He has these flashy kill animations on all the weapons though. With the handgun he shoots them under the chin, and with the shotgun he sticks it in their mouth. The question is still how he triggers them, and what are the requirements. It could be a counter, but there's one instant where a zombie is neither stunned or attacking, and Leon just goes up to him and shoots him under the chin with the handgun.
>press X for awesomeand people are soifacing over this? lol
>>731003140>that's because the parry mechanic already exists, Capcom often makes more in-depth mechanics promptless because they know it just confuses casual playersWhat?The parry mechanic was new to the remake and it had an on screen prompt. That was three years ago, that was the newest RE game.>>731003174Like I said, it's likely just a take on Chris' block in RE7 based on the rest of the footage. It's something initiated probably dependent on the following>weapon being used>where you are aiming>health of the enemyRather than an actual counter. It's designed to look cool, not be functional as a mechanic.
>>731003174Could be different takedown animations based on what the zombie is doing, probably does the dodge one when you perform it while an enemy is attacking. The melee attacks seem very context sensitive like in RE6.
>leon is a superhumanwhy?
>>731001365>>731001516the UI looks horrible
>>731003279Capcom has been cultivating the cod audience since re4
>>731003336but re 7 was great re 8 was fun toowhy are they back to re6 silliness
>>731003259>What?>The parry mechanic was new to the remake and it had an on screen prompt. That was three years ago, that was the newest RE gameThe knife parry in Requiem is still in the game, only its a hatchet now, the counter obviously doesn't require it but looks like it requires bullets instead
>>731002821>refining the gunplay>means putting in anime finishersWhy
>>731002267>and then it transitions to a takedown which implies that this was because of the weapon being fired, not a counter.This may the case since there is an instance where Leon runs up and does the point blank finisher with a handgun, and the zombie wasn't attacking or stunned. But what is the indicator that this can be done? Possibly if you try to shoot a zombie up close and they're one shot away from dying with the weapon you're using, so maybe not something you can always predict unless you know they're one shot away from dying with that weapon.
>>731002898Survival horror action, with varying degrees for each of those between games. They all have finite resources therefore it's survival, they're all about horrific bioengineered monsters, and they all involve gunplay so it's action.
>>731003352>but re 7 was great re 8 was fun too>why are they back to re6 sillinessVillage was literally one of the silliest games in the franchise, did everyone just collectively memoryhole the stupid magneto white where you pilot a scrap mech and he makes meme references?
>>731003612lol boulder punching chris was at the top of sillliness anon
>>731000524>RE6 IS ACTUALLY LE KINORINO MASTERPIECE!!!!stfu revisionist niggerfaggot
>>731002925Wasn't RE2R one of their most successful games?
>>731000524the director explicitly stated that it's based on re4 melee system
>>731003279What has he done that was particularly superhuman in this game? He kicks zombies like he's done since RE4, he does some fancy gun kata that doesn't require you to be superhuman. Only other thing is crushing heads with his foot, which is probably easier because zombies are prone to their heads exploding.
>>731003830So was RE5 and RE6
>>731003380It can't refine the gameplay while also having anime finishers? more context sensitive actions are technically refinements.
I’m worried about 9. I don’t think I’ve ever played a good dual protagonist game with differing playstyles, they all suffer from “Sonic Unleashed syndrome”. Not to mention that gameplay wise, the series is now a mess between Re8/7, 6, 4 and 2 remake, 4, it’s gotten very messy because every new entry tries to keep iterating on other previous entries while being within a new mechanical entry.
>>731004358>I don’t think I’ve ever played a good dual protagonist game with differing playstyles, they all suffer from “Sonic Unleashed syndrome”.DMC4 and DMC5 are good no matter what /v/ contrarians say
>>730997823bro this is so racist
>>731003352Leon doing context sensitive melee prompts and some flashy finishers that we still don't fully understand is not the same as Leon doing unarmed melee attacks at will, leaping onto the floor and rolling around and shooting, doing gun kata quickshots to automatically shoot enemies all around you, having a ridiculous sprint speed, and over the top QTEs with explosions and plane crashes and shit.
>>731003562Well almost every shooter has limited ammo, does that make them survival? For me the core characteristic that distinguishes survival horror from a horror-themed action game is that, besides forced encounters/bosses, you're never directly rewarded for killing anything and it's always theoretically better to just avoid it and save resources. Monsters don't drop items, the only reward for killing them is that you don't have to deal with them anymore, and ideally it can actually make things worse (Crimson Head-style mechanics).Obviously it's pretty difficult to combine that design philosophy with action which is part of why I don't like the games where they do try and do it, like RE8. But I suppose that completely segmenting the two styles into totally different missions/campaigns is a step in the right direction, if you really have to try and do both in one game.
>>731003660That's one instance of a silly portrayal of physics, vs a wacky world with werewolves, 9 foot tall 1930s style woman living in a castle with adopted daughters who can turn into a swarm of flies at will, a woman with a walking talking doll animated with a parasite, a goofy and pathetic monstrous guy who acts like a child, and Magneto.
>>731005127lol are you retarded
>>731005127RE8 is just perfection
>>731002925>>731003735Yes, as was RE7, another survival horror centric game. But so was RE6, the most ridiculously action-oriented RE game in the franchise. So really RE sells regardless.
>>730997823>>731001365it looks like they've finally given him a less aged face. good.
>>731001785infected?
>>731005180clearly you are if that is your only response
>>731005860you exactly
>>731004773>Well almost every shooter has limited ammo, does that make them survival? It is technically true but nowhere close to the same thing, Leon doesn't get a loaded gun from every ganado he kills. When you're playing a shooter you're generally not going to be taking your time lining up your shots unless you're doing a stealthy kill, because ammo is far more abundant. And there are now 4 numbered mainline RE games where you find loot from enemies you kill, including money for permanent upgrades, so you do have incentive to kill them on top of not leaving active threats. All I know know is regardless of what genre Resident Evil is, it offers a unique gameplay style I don't get to experience with other games. I remember trying deadspace and it just did not click with me like RE games do.
>Complaining about RE9 being too "silly" while defending RE8This board gets more retarded by the day
>>731002925>kvetchingI thought that word was a typo but I just found out it is a word
>>731001225He's an alcoholic he's probably annoying to deal with in person
>>730998756>What timmy gon d-
>>731009117wouldn't it be lenny in this case
>>730997823>Leon curb stomps a niggerWhat did capcom mean by this
>>730997823>leon crushing a nogs skull under his heelAnd they say capcom won't remake re5 lmao
>>731001990Counters are pre-baked scenarios too buddy. It's a contextual action, just like a finisher, that when the player presses a button at the correct time, an animation will play and calculations will process.Welcome to video games.
>>731010949do you know what a curb is?
hey Leon changed his hair color again
>>730997823and that's a good thing!everybody hating on this is either trolling or just a pathetic subhuman aka pajeet
>>731015362Cute lil guy
>>731015362every single new RE always has pearl clutching faggots talking about "not muh RE", the only consistent thing about Resident Evil is that the fanbase will always bitch about how its not Resident Evil
>>730998128Is Resident Evil quietly one of the most based, anti-nig game series out there?
>>731013252Always looked brown to me, I don't know why so many say he's blonde in RE4.
>>731019096Leon did NOT say that...
>>731019096This collage doesn't even include the funniest one
>>730997823Does Gideon want to breed Grace
>>731019327I need a pic of the black female civilian zombie model from RE2 remake, the one that is only found wandering in the cell area.
>>731019234He thought it
>>730998756>I can't RE
