I got all the achievements in this game, dear god. The game was so glitchy enemies would teleport, turn invisible, and the hit detection was terrible. To get the Heroes trophy you had to cheat the system and use a shotgun that knocked down the enemy player, stun locking them. Worse is that you had to pay for the rest of the campaign.

[@Gaia_BentosZX5]

It all comes back to Keiji "Con Man" Inafune, a regular on this show. He lacks restraint.

[@MrPwnguin]

That stun lock was the reason I dipped out of that games multiplayer mode so fast

[@UAshton5090]

It blows my mind that Capcom has tried so many times to create a multiplayer RE game, but the one they continue to ignore that fits the RE style so well is Outbreak. Super biased towards Outbreak and I'm still convinced a modern update to that system would be the multiplayer RE game that would do it for them.

[@broderickfoster2107]

I know they’re overdone now, but what if they made a battle royale in something like Racoon City where the goal is to stay uninflected the longest. It keeps the survival aspects but at the same time each game starts with one AI infected who is guaranteed to spawn near a player. Once a player “dies” to an infected they have a short timer and then become one of the infected which pits them against the remaining survivors. The goal is to win by surviving the longest, and as such whomever is left would be rewarded with the highest amounts of rewards but the more you kill as an infected the more you can make up for your lack of winning rewards. It gives players something to do after being eliminated and can help speed up matches as the number of hostiles constantly increases. Survivors can attack the infected but nothing keeps them down permanently, it only stalls them with a short cooldown timer before they get back up and continue the chase after you. Essentially it’s the playground game infection taken to a battle royale format. I haven’t really seen any of those games which keep the player engaged after being “eliminated”. Players who enjoy hunting others would actively seek out being infected and then take their eyes to other survivors ultimately speeding up match times too so you wouldn’t have too much of a problem with stalling. As for a “storm” like mechanic it’s an apocalyptic city there’s hundreds of ways you can block off certain areas, but a big one is that you’re waiting to be saved by a helicopter before Racoon City gets nuked and so when there’s only a few players left an extraction point is created and all infected are informed of the remaining survivors positions. After that a very quick timer begins and if you miss it the infected get to you and you lose your chance at the winning rewards (although you get a comeuppance bonus for making it to the end). I don’t know, just could be a fun idea with familiar settings and fit the survival horror idea really well.

[@jimboc669]

That was the first RE game I ever played. Childhood memories of escaping the bar.

[@zer03d14]

Outbreak was ahead of it's time honestly, if it came out when online multiplayer was more the norm (and EU actually got the online functionality) it woulda been killer, just every few months add a new mission etc etc, it's the kind of live service game I'd actually be all over if done right XD REOutbreak would be amazing in this day n age, hell just reuse assets n maps from the RE2-3 remake and you can probably cut it up into several levels with tweaking before you even needed to make new models.

The trailers also did well to create the hype, and the idea of taking the roles of Umbrella mercenaries fighting alongside HUNK was cool.

[@termnus77]

They do have marval vs capcom for that I think. Unless you mean a pure RE fighter?

[@TheFEARSlayer01]

Call me crazy..but I'd kinda like an RE fighting game just for the ridiculous premise alone. That and also..the idea of playing as someone like Birkin, Wesker, Tyrant or Nemesis and just going batshit crazy with combos is an entertaining thought. I mean just being able to theoretically match up various heroes and monsters from the different games would be fun for the novelty. Although Marvel vs Capcom kinda already did that. It'd probably suck if Capcom did try an RE fighting game, but I'd find it amusing at least, so long as it didn't take away from any actual RE games being worked on.

[@DanteMasaru]

I'll tell you this for free: Despite being tremendously flawed in various areas, RE:ORC was legit fun to play (especially with friends (naturally)) back during the PS3 era. It's a turd, but was the closest to an RE2 REmake available at the time and I embraced it.

[@CyberLance26]

I dont think a game should be seen as a turd if its very fun to play.

[@DanteMasaru]

@@CyberLance26 It's possible, though kind of rare, that a number of aspects of a game are more on the negative side, but the fun factor is one of the few aspects that stands out (though not very much) positively. RE:ORC's presentation was not good (bad looking character models, especially during cutscenes). Combat, while enjoyable for the most part, was rather clunky. Story wasn't that engaging but it is a noncanonical spinoff about two factions. Perhaps "turd" alone is a bit of an unfair assessment, but perhaps more along the lines of a 'polished turd'? Though using the word "polished" is still a bit of a stretch, especially if one were to play the game nowadays. I'm sure it hasn't aged well. Oh wait, how about "crap-tastic"?

[@daddiodan6846]

The mp mode with the heroes was so broken. But it was broken fun.

[@bryanmoberg8408]

I replayed the steam version a couple years ago and it's a damn good time. It's a bad game, but it's sort of a good bad like re survivor or dead aim. Compared to dreck like re6 and umbrella corps which are very much a bad bad.

This game had a unique and often forgotten CQC System where you could take human shields, cut throats, shoot people in the face, and curbstomp. It also had an auto pistol mode where the torso would be controlled seperately from the legs allowing easy control of zombie hordes. Always thought the series had potential for a "monster of the site" globetrotting adventure with customization.

[@UltimateCerberus666]

a lot of people don't know about the CQC or the special executions cause they never bothered to explore more than one character

This game is a guilty pleasure for me, back when I had a working 360. I unironically loved the levels where you were fighting through the burning streets as the city fell apart. Four Eyes' ability to make the monsters fight for you never got old. I honestly even like some of the characters, but man, they needed more in-mission banter to help flesh them out more (thanks tiny script writing time limit). Its a shame you cant even buy it on steam anymore and it doesnt work. I'd honestly pick it up with the spec ops dlc on sale if it was possible.

[@user-zs5ub1ic1v]

This game is genuinely a lot of fun to play, even today. Its not one of those groundbreaking hits that everyone should rush out and experience, but if you have a few friends that like zombies or the resident evil franchise, this is a solid game to just boot up and have fun with. Certainly better than that *OTHER* Umbrella focused team shooter they failed with.

Now that I heard that the game was rushed in development now I get it of why the campaign was sooooo darn short (I mean I beated in less than 4 hours in my first try) and why they re-used the zombies designs like... A LOT! (in one wave I saw like 6 or 7 of the same either zombie policeman or guy with a yellow formal suit). But one thing for sure is that I enjoyed this "what if..." stories of RE2 in the main campaign and RE3 in the DLC campaign.

I'm starting to realize the big flaw in Inafune's flawless western-centric plan. Mainly, that he somehow expected communication between studios abroad to be as smooth as domestically.

[@darrylaz3570]

Not only that, Inafune's Western-centric plans often conflict with the existing fanbase who wanted the games to feel and play like how the JP devs made. Once you move hands to a Western dev, there's always the tiny nicks and ticks that feels different and will nag the playerbase and will often immediately feel lesser quality of. Don't get me wrong, back then he had a point. He was right back then when Japanese devs were struggling to adapt to the HD development environment. What he didn't account for is what the fanbase wants, the aforementioned communication difficulties, and that the JP devs eventually catch up and regain their stride nowadays.

This game is my guilty pleasure to go back and replay every couple of months.

Imma say it, i liked Re 6 & Re ORC. They were different, yes, but man, were they fun.

Funnily enough I was one of the number one players on this game on the PS3 . I mostly played Heroes mode, but this trick worked in all modes, just not as well. Let a zombie infect you after collecting max amount of first aid sprays, and your health will be multiplied greatly, but it'll also slowly drain. As long as you heal when needed, you'll almost never lose a fight as you'll have at least 4x more health than the other player. I only met 1 other dude who knew this trick through the entirety of the time I played this. Funny part about it is I'd have teammates who'd heal me with zombie spray, and I'd die instantly from the health loss. That was the biggest issue with this but having a mic and telling others not to heal you can mitigate this. I'd often be called a hacker, but it's just exploiting game mechanics to the fullest. I think my largest kill streak on this game was about 30 on Extraction. There was one spot left on the chopper and on one of the maps I camped the staircase to the top of the roof and managed to get that many kills until time nearly ran out. In Heroes mode, it'd make you just about immune to knife damage, and most guns would do a very miniscule amount of damage as Heroes have more health than other characters already. There's no way you'd die unless a teammate came along to heal the infected status. Other than that, it was absolute bullshit that half the story mode was DLC and I never played the other half other than the free first level.

I liked this one, especially the cinematics. Cool concept

This game is one of my guilty pleasures. I love the whole group and playing the different classes/characters.

i liked the game a lot. it only needed a few things to be changed. team member ai was bad. and making the other living people bullet sponges was a bad idea. if they made those changes it would sell. they could also redo the outbreak games with upgraded ai and it would do well.

umbrella corps is actually pretty fun to play, the most underrated out of the other online multiplayer RE games.

yooo nice to see that you're into bluesky too! I'm brazilian and wonder if the recent X ban was one of the reasons for you to create a bluesky account or not.

18:36 Is it me or have you featured this music in every RE What Happened video you've ever made? 😂 I mean, I get it, but yeah. 🤣
