Is this the worst starting gun in Resident Evil games history?I can't even think of anything positive about this thing
>>735564362It's good for giving yourself a challenge since otherwise Leon drop kicks everything with no limits.
>>735564362It has the best accuracy for shooting zombies in the knees.Headshots are worthless with this thing though. Also, why is there a TAC-light on the gun if you can't use it?
Honestly all handguns sucks ass on this game, Matilda is okay in damage because of the burst fire and the Silencer weapon is only good because its silenced.
>>735564362Holy fuck this game is so fucking ugly RE engine was a mistake
>>735564362Its complete shit, which is a problem because its the coolest handgun in the game. The pistols sucked in the game sadly
>>735564753you're not respecting the artistic direction you chud
I love it, its the best looking gun leon has had till now, and fully upgraded works good enough even on insanity
>>735564362It hast the fastest reload, and not much else going for it
>>735564543The flashlight bothers me toohttps://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrequiem/mods/1001
>>735564636And the Silencer has the highest damage per shot while also having a high rate of fire. It’s just objectively better than the Snapper. This game really needed exclusive upgrades.
>>735564362>california compliant magazineswhat is leon DOING
>>735564362Why does Hunk also have a P320?
>>735570845Blame Kendo. He’s losing his touch.
>>735570731Isn't there another gun with a sight on it you can't use? This is disappointing. It didn't use to be like this. The sights in RE4 were all actually functional items you could attach and detach.
>>735564362It boggles my mind why he went from this flawless piece of German engineering to that piece of involuntary discharging dogshit. Sure as fuck hope Kendo somehow managed to fix that safety hazard waiting to happen before handing it over.
>>735571332What’s worse is that the Snapper is called the SG-19R
>>735571274The flashlight isn’t an attachment, it’s a skin you unlock after beating the game.
>>735571274You're probably thinking about the Clatter Carbine. And you can, in fact, not use the sights.
>>735571682Yeah, and that's the problem. It should be an attachment, or at least it should automatically turn on in dark areas in lieu of using a handheld light.>>735571887I bet you can't use the light on that either huh. That's really lame. Between this and the reused bosses and areas, it really shows it was an asset flip cash grab without real attention to detail. They couldn't even be bothered to make the tacticool doodads on the gun function. Meanwhile the CQBR in 4R has Ironsights and you can mount any of the rifle scopes on it.
>>735564362>"LOOK AT THOSE SNAPPERS"
how do you from this...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpFQfijSNI8
>>735572651To be fair, it is a bonus weapon. All of them but the Matilda can’t be upgraded or customized because they’re designed to be incredibly overpowered.
>>735571630No its not
>>735573083It’s because people kept abusing the handgun and letting everyone else know it was overpowered.
>>735571887The optics aren't aligned either, what a piece of shit
>>735573550Yes it is. Look at it in the model viewer. The serial number is also the release date of Requiem.
>>735571081More the fact the dumbass based his guns company in California like a retard. Dude should have moved to Texas or somthing.
>>735572651The difference is that the CQBR is found in game, which the Clatter Carbine is a bonus weapon.
>>735573671You can blame the fact these guns are mostly scanned of airsoft weapons rather than the real thing. Which I guess is cheaper than flying over your design team to the US for a few weeks to scan and model real guns instead.
>>735573550Nigger.
>>735573550
>>735564362It looks cooler than the gay ass Silencer 9
>>735574239>>735574361Damn
fuck this thing, a replacement with the RE4R pistol it is
>>735564362jesus christ leon looks awful
>>735574239>>735574361What the fug
>>735576598He’s dying
>>735564362>p320 sig>it's the worstcanon
>>735564753>I'm a retarded consoloid used to shitty standardized hardware and lack the mental capacity to process that a single screenshot of a game playable on a real system and not my cuckbox can either look better or worse depending on the settings
>>735576791I’m glad I made my first PC to experience this.
>>735564753RE Engine is fine, it's just Raccoon City is a sterile place that looks like total ass with no mood but "foggy mid-day". Most of the rest of the game looks alright besides the finale labs being really boring too.
>Best handgun is the hideous sci-fi looking silenced oneVery very gay
>>735577462It’s a real gun though. Arguably ahead of its time.
>>735571332If you believe the discharge shit about p320s I have a bridge to sell you.
>>735577570Modern guns do look like hideous sci-fi guns so that checks out
>SIG>Slow as fuck rate of fire>>735570738Maybe they'll do it like Village and the DLC adds another upgrade once you get enough ranks in The Mercenaries mode.
this pistol sucks dick. I just went through Raccoon City as Leon on Insanity and it's really dull. There's just no great action set piece. Like RE4 has the water room, the double garradors, and other memorable shit. Also blisterheads are fucking stupid.
>Always thought Sig guns were great as a no-gunz dude playing vidya>See people talking about this gun somewhere else>They are apparently shitWait what, since when?
>>735578921It's mostly the P320 having no proper quality control. A major oversight with internal mechanisms and no proper safety catch to prevent its always-cocked hammer from going off has turned it into a misfire nightmare where stuffing it in a holster or other means of carry is a ticking time bomb of a discharge. I don't know about the rest of SIG shit going bad or so forth, but this gun is the absolute worst choice to make for Leon.
>>735564362>Is this the worst starting gun in Resident Evil games history?its, may allah forgive me for uttering this word, a Sig, so yeah, of course.
>>735577596Sure thing Mr. John Sig Sauer.It's such a non-issue they're still to this day running PR damage control and fighting lawsuits about that dogshit pistol.
>>735564362>Is this the worst starting gun in Resident Evil games history?pretty muchits as bad a graces guns which are meant to be bad on purposehell, its even worse than ethans pistols in the shitty FPS games
>>735564362Gun is ass. Immediately replaced with the silenced pistol.>>735577596Not a gunfag, wasnt it some ammo that was fucked up and that caused it?
>>735580498>Not a gunfag, wasnt it some ammo that was fucked up and that caused it?gun's design. light trigger for easy pulls, always-ready striker to make it ready to fire from a quick draw compared to a firing hammer, theoretically makes it a "pull from the holster and you can start shooting immediately" sort of deal. in practice, the trigger is TOO light, the safety isn't enough to prevent problems from occurring, and any manner of pressure upon that trigger can risk the striker going off and discharging the weapon.it's legitimately a case of "did not think the consequences of this through in order to make shippable product". they'd fundamentally have to change one or both mechanics to stop it, but production stopping would be metric tons of cash lost so they'd rather bury the claims in legal defense.
>>735579041Don’t forget that they’re made in India.
>>735579041>>735582843To be fair it's a custom variant by a trusted gunsmith, couldn't he fix that shit
>>735580885tolerance stacking is probably a big factor here as well
>>735564362This game looks terrible with pathtracing off
>>735582885Considering how heavy the gun feels for being a residual peashooter by RE standards, I wouldn't be surprised if Joe basically weighted the motherfucker down and stripped out any problematic parts altogether for something that basically may as well not make it a P320 at that point, RE's penchant for knockoff guns in modern titles aside.
>>735577905>a revolver with no ability to adjust your aim after each shot because of its oversized calibre>"reliable"
>>735564362Why do they insist on giving Leon that neanderthal forehead? It looked terrible in 4R too
>>735573671>>735573927It's a flip up magnifier, noguns-sama.
>>735579495Tell me you didn’t play 7 or 8 without telling me you didn’t play 7 or 8. Ethan’s Pistols in 7 are a bit subdued in 7, but not awful, and he has enhanced ammo that deals triple damage. In 8, it gets ridiculous, and his pistols are objectively better than Chris’s, and that’s not even counting the extra customization you unlock through Mercs that gives a majority of his guns exclusive upgrades.
>>735577905The Redemption is still the better option.
>>735580498Iirc, it's likely due to modifying a da hammer fire design to work with a striker fire system.
>>735564543You can use the taclight in newgame+. It's not on the gun during the first run.
>>735564362Leon's handguns in general are functionally useless in RE9. You should never keep one in your inventory because it just clogs up the ammo drop pool and 90% of the combat on insanity is knocking over zombies with a shotgun anyway
I don't think I appreciate video games very much. They seem uncalled for.
>>735578921their old hammer pistols are great
>>735583563They’re good for stunning zombies so you can slash at them until they get knocked into a melee state, or shooting them until they go into a melee state. Other weapons are better, but I prefer to not waste my good ammo on trash mobs.
>>735583563Some hold Insanity as the game's true difficulty but nah, that shit's just too fucked in the other direction from Standard being too easy. And when you do Standard, the handguns are excellent stunners and can kill most zombies besides the extra durable ones with plenty of ammo to spare. They give Leon way too much ammo, and even Grace can just kill everything with some good pistol, magnum and injector usage.
>>735582885>couldn't he fix that shitHe could. All memeing aside, Kendo seems to know his shit as a top notch gunsmith. That thing may as well not be a P320 anymore in any capacity outside of the general shape of the pistol itself.I reckon japs settled down on the design long before the DischargeGate shit started gaining traction just because it looked cool. Too bad the P320 is now eternally sullied by Sig's incompetence in creating a safe weapon and their subsequent response after people were actually very close to, or straight up getting hurt from it. It doesn't really matter how true or not it is, it's gonna be eternally haunted by involuntary discharge memery, and deservedly so.
>>735584043He’s getting old, Anon.
>>735564543Hey it look koul crpcom like so do kids
>>735585607Who's to say it's not a family business at this point? He moved on from a few Kendo customs to serving the DSO directly and forming Kendo Tactical Arms. Obviously Robert got fucked early on, but that didn't stop him from continuing the business.
>>735564362finally finished this gameit was pretty good, enjoyed a lotkinda disappointed that releasing elpis was the true ending... I thought I was gonna destroy the world instead... :(
>>735586275You hit the retard filter, and somehow made the correct decision. Amazing.
>>735586174Because we don’t have any other named Kendos
>>735586584good things often happen through happy accidents
>>735564362looks and sounds cool, thats all i need.
I dont understand how both RE8 and RE9 somehow fucked up the simple appeal of RE4s weapons: They all have different pros and cons with unique abilities that makes it fun to personalize your playstyle. In 8 and 9 the later game weapons are just straight up better than the early ones
>>735573580I remember it had penetration too so you can potentially kill 3 in one shot if you align them right
>>735564362what a fucking DOGSHIT fire rate holy fuck, cant stand pistols with shit fire rates
>>735577004i find modern lighting in urban areas in general to always be>ass in the day>beautiful at nightcyberpunk looks fucking horrible in the day.
>>735587134They are all relying way too much on PBR and conditional lighting, so environments and materials only look good in a particular time of day / scenario lighting. Shit looks better with path tracing, but not by enough of a margin to make it worth the performance loss for most people. If I had PT off for this it would be mostly some flat shades with no fancy shadows because even RT mode is inexplicably gimped in this release solely to make PT look better.
>>735577905>that webmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etRxv1Lvf1E
>>735587283And without PT, most of these distant buildings would have zero shadows, so it'd all look extremely flat.
>>735586649I know main characters not reproducing is kind of an RE meme but if I can see someone pumping out kids it's certainly Kendo, attributing to the fact he's not a main character to begin with. Either that or he took people under his wing. It's not explicitly said in any game so far but it's not a stretch to see it happening either. The guy's like what, 60 or 70 by 2026 I think?
>>735587283it's funny how we stopped doing baked ambient occlusion, yet lighting is STILL not good enough to compensate. pathtracing on btw.
>>735587554I just hope if they ever do something weird like make us actually play some Kendo descendant in their attempts to keep things "relatable for fans" that we actually have some gun autism mechanics, or it isn't worth it at all.
>>735587615It's annoying what's missing in the lighting. Like, messing with graphics enhancements for 2 through 4 remakes, some guy's enabled contact shadows on each of them. But Requiem, by god you better be using Path Tracing, boy, because we're not giving you those shadows without it. And even WITH it, everything is still an inconsistent mess. I genuinely think they took steps back from 4R in some of the pipeline just to emphasize Hair Strands and a PT licensing deal.
>>735587016That was the Punisher in 4. You can only get penetration in 9 if you use the Claire Charm.
>>735587904ray and pathtracing are 100% gimped to work on as many configurations as possible. which makes sense, but also now we're back to square one; baked ao would have looked better, and been cheaper. especially on character faces, which have 0 contact shadows.
>>735587554Ethan broke the meme.
Would you guys say RE2make is scarier than RE9? I gave up on 2 awhile ago but I wanna go back to try again.
>>735590038I would say all RE games have the same level of scary
>>735564362is that what Requiem looks like? lol
>>735588047Debatable since he's an autistic mold monster, but fair enough.
>>735586942This really disappointed me with 8, first time through i wondered "is the 1911 gonna be the high damage low rof and mag size wep?"Nope. The skorpion you get at the end is the best fucking pistol in the game with insane damage and rof and mag size and youre fucking stupid using anything else.
>>735564362Why did we ever go away from the beretta 92. It was perfect
The handguns are shit because they're all 9mm based outside of the RequiemIn the RE universe where a BOW outbreak is weekly/monthly, the 9mm has zero utility outside as a practice/recreational roundEvery LEO, military and gubmint agent should be carrying .45, .357, .44 or any big revolver like Barry as their main sidearm with a generic ass 12ga shotgun as their primary
>>735590038Mr X is pretty panic inducing before you know what to do and where to go.
>>735586942The LEMI was such a piece of shit. At least it has the excuse of being so beat up it had to be taped together.
>>735590930147gr 9x19 NATO is a great load compared to standard 124gr 9mm ball.45ACP is dogshit especially if the spoopy monsters have chitin armor or whatever the fuck lore shit makes them tough. 7.5FK would have been a good semi-wildcat cartridge for an intermediate gun for the game.
