LegoMan1031 Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Jut bought this! From what I have read here I am really looking forward to it, not got the cpp though - sounds like I can easily do without it. Had no problems with the mercenaries controls.
Mokong Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Just beat Episode 5 on HELL mode.... god damn my nerves are shot to hell. For those that don't remember ep 5 is what Stage 15 in RAID is based on... the first water part with the steam pipes that you run round in a circle for. Those Sea Creeper things kept bloody getting me and I didn't want to waste ammo on them just in case. So I kept trying to just run past them but every bloody time they caught me, never managed to dodge even one Wasted a load of herbs Though still managed to get through it without dying.... only 1 herb left now though Then the bit at the plane crash with Grinder and Jackass and the invisible Hunters... FFS I barely had enough ammo for that and given the situation I wasn't even able to try look for extra ammo. Died once there but managed to survive (with Jam all over screen) on 2nd try, zero M.gun ammo left and 2 shotgun shells Not looking forward to Episode 6 much.. think I'll leave that for tomorrow.... oh why can't you bring your Raid guns into Campaigne
dazzybee Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Back from India; Girlfriends working tonight. My 3DS, Res Evil, CPP, headphones (hope the sound is better than on the demo) and me have a date tonight!
Debug Mode Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 I've been playing it while using Sennheiser HD 205's and I think it sounds absolutely amazing. I've seen debates on 4chan about which sound mode it sounds better in though, some people think stereo is better than surround sound. I've also had 3 streetpasses these past 2 days and did a bit of local play with a friend, I'm loving the extra content.
dazzybee Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Yeah I found the sound so ugh better than the demo. The shuffling sound is a lot less pronounced and the zombie death noise is also more subtle. Excellent sound and particular music; really added to the atmosphere. Can't wait to play more and unlock raid mode!
RedShell Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 @Mokong X\-C, how's your HELL mode playthrough going? I started one today... oh dear. It's not going to go too well I think. Even the very first Ooze gave me trouble. :p

Well, let me know when you get back into Raid Mode. :awesome: BTW, (was going to post about this before, but forgot) I saw this on the official site for the game: My box art is just your bog-standard 2D artwork though, and I definitely got the game early. Did anyone get a lenticular cover?
LegoMan1031 Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Did anyone get a lenticular cover? Not me, but then I only bought mine last week in ASDA.
S.C.G Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Happy -Jill- Valentines Day N-E! And what better way to celebrate than with our review of Resident Evil: Revelations. Enjoy! : peace:

The Bard Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 This game is so unfortunate. It could have been cool, and the atmosphere is fairly reminiscent of the first RE, but it got fucked by the 3DS' GPU and god awful circle pad which makes the skillshots that actually define the Resident Evil combat, impossible. There is also nothing that looks so pathetic as the little puddle of tomato ketchup that the enemies dissolve into when you kill them.
Debug Mode Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I really liked it personally but I do agree that it's pretty terrible that enemies just melt away into some unconvincing blood, but I suspect that's a RAM limitation as it disappears very quickly when you move on. I think they could have made the loading a bit more bearable on the elevators if they actually stopped displaying the game in all it's choppy glorry and moved to an actual loading screen. I imagine it would have made loading a lot faster too.

I imagine it would have made loading a lot faster too. Some of the ships doors made it go all choppy when it was loading n all, the doors with a big circle in the middle. What also made me lol was when your partner ran in front of u and goes through a door first, u try and run behind them with the door wide open and it slams in ur face! Ha

Ha It's even funnier in raid mode when you're playing with friends. Too many times one of my friends has said "Cheers for that, asshole" because the door doesn't stay open. But hey, it could have been worse..
Oxigen_Waste Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 I finally got this today... erm... I'm having severe problems with the controls. Even with CCP I can't aim properly... It just feels weird and I don't know why... I'm very used to playing 3rd person shooter games and have never had an issue, but with the 3DS analogs I'm aiming like 3 year old... what the hell am I doing wrong? oO

Ha Haha, yeah, I remember playing online with a guy from Germany I think. I just saved his arse 2 seconds earlier and what thanks do I get; a slammed door in my face hehe. Great online game though this RE:R. I finally got this today... erm... I'm having severe problems with the controls. Even with CCP I can't aim properly... It just feels weird and I don't know why...

I'm very used to playing 3rd person shooter games and have never had an issue, but with the 3DS analogs I'm aiming like 3 year old... what the hell am I doing wrong? oO I had this problem when first using the CPP, then I used the calibration, played a few games of Raid Mode and have never looked back since : peace: if you haven't calibrated it yet then I'd suggest doing so in the options as it makes all the difference, if it still doesn't 'work' instantly then just spend a little more time with the game after doing this and see what happens. ---------------------------------- Btw did anyone enjoy reading my review of the game? I hope it was satisfactory at least, as I haven't reviewed a full retail game in a good few months.
Mokong Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) WHen ye guys say "CCP" Are ye refering to the Classic Controller Pro... in which case can ye tell me who ye hooked up a Wii device to yer 3DS :wink: Or do ye mean to refer to the Circle Pad Pro?

Heh, I didn't even realise that I'd started doing it too, I think it's purely because the abbriviations are so darned similar.

Actually I do that quite a lot, I'd actually already deleted before I saw your post anyway I'm glad you enjoyed the REview!
LegoMan1031 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 But hey, it could have been worse.. Lol, well I didn't mind the door sequence tooooo much, think I just got used to it, seeing an open doorway just makes you want to run through it but as I said gets more frustrating when you can't...
dazzybee Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 Bizarre. Although the demo isn't amazing it's still pretty good. The game itself IS amazing however!
Kav Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 I finally picked this up today, I think I'll get through it by next week so I can join you lovely bastards on Raid Mode!
Coolness Bears Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) I see.
