Say what you will about this game but mechanically it was very fun. Main story was w/e but I easily got ~10 million points alone doing COOP mercenaries.

Then they dropped reunion and I played even more. Excella/Wesker is some of the most fun I've had in vidya.


Yeah most other RE games are better but I don't know what else to say beyond that. I had so much less fun with 6.

>>381284080
Mechanically it still felt like a dumbed down RE4

>>381283542
merc gameplay mode killed the series.

>dumbed down

Both RE 4 and 5 had invul on QTE's.

4 only had only had 2-3 types of QTE's for an enemy (head, legs). 5 had at least 7; ground, head, arm back, arm, front, legs front, legs back, and level 3. That doesn't include special team combo melees either.

There was strategy in mercs to use grab melee attacks on enemies (like crhis's back leg shot) to percent plaga spawns and gain invul during enemy attacks. A team that is well in sync can perform level 3's and they are varied and fun.

Basically it expanded the QTE system with a bunch of fun characters. You're fucking dumb.

this is how resident evil fans treat RE5

>>381285237
people still consider QTE's to be anytime you press a button for something? it used to be pretty universally known that it was "press a sequence of buttons for an action in this one forced cutscene in which you have no control over."

it's always merc fags.

>>381285237
Holy shit, why can't anyone at /v/ use the term "QTE" properly? A QTE is when the player isn't in control and he has to push a button in a very short time period to complete an action, usually to avoid getting killed. Shooting some guy and running to press a button when he's stunned isn't a QTE.

That being said, you can't really say that RE5 feels more fleshed out than RE4 because there's 3 more melee moves per character (its 5 moves per character btw not 7) when RE5 falls flat onevery other gameplay aspect. Hell, even the levels in RE4 were way bigger

>>381285237
>>381285956
Also stop using random fucking slang like "INVUL QTE", just saying "invulnerability".

And one shit I seriously hated about RE5 was the shop and how fucking random it seemed, first there's no plot explanation as to how the guys get the guns and secondly I never felt confident about upgrading a gun because you were getting a new pistol like every 3 levels and the next one completely outclassed the previous one

>NOT at least 7

Let's use Wesker

>head - Cobra Strike
>arm front - Panther Strike
>arm back - Jaguar Kick
>leg front - Tiger Uppercut
>leg back - Mustang Kick
>ground - Windmill

Each has tactical uses/different damage etc.

So at least 6.

8 if you count level 3 attacks.
>Ghostly Butterfly
>Rhino Horn

You can't count.

>>381286218

Sperg about terminology all you want. It's just you choking on your own bile. I call it a QTE or whatever because the camera angle changes to make it more cinematic, you get invul, it's a single button press, and it's not the same as say a move in a fighting game.

Hey let's make it even better. Let's do Chris on Mercs EX on PS4.

Head - straight
arm front - hook
arm back - kick
leg front - uppercut
leg back - neckbreaker
ground - stomp

level 3

>backhand
>haymaker

Team combos:

>leg front- Rising Upper
>Leg back - Hammer Blow

10 moves!!!!

TEN! More than 3 times RE4 and twice as much as you're trying to lie and say there is. Eat my ass.

Ultimates? Like in MOBA's?

No, those don't have camera angle changes and I don't think all of them offer invul.

Did you mean SUPERS in fighting games?

In that case no as well because thsoe usually take more than one button to do a super. Marvel takes directional + 2 buttons, SF takes charge motions, double fireball etc, KOF takes double fireball, qcf hcb etc. etc. Only some are cinematic, not all of them offer invul, and usually none are done on a single button press.

You're really dumb.

But I don't care about defending the main game. I beat it a few times and it was pretty lame storywise but I didn't care because I liked playing COOP with my friend and mercenaries is very fun for us.

I like the game more for its mechanics than its story- as rare a stance that may be in this day and age. Sorry if that ruffles your feathers but I'm not trying to say it's game of the year- just that I had a good time with a specific aspect of it.

5 is a great co-op experience.

And sure, it's not nearly as good as 4, but compared to 6 it's like a work of art.

>>381287732
>take more than one button to do a super.
2/3 is still a majority. still doesn't address that QTE's, for the longest time, were used to described moments when you lost all control of your character to do a scripted animation that you could not perform under normal gameplay
circumstances.
also double lol for your deluded post under this one.

>>381287990

"I don't care to defend the main game in a thread about defending the main game".

I mean yeah I'm sure Metal gear survive will actually have more gameplay than MGSV, doesn't mean that I can call MGSV a work of art or MG survive a perfect game

You got in a thread that explicitly says "Why does RE5 feels like such a dumbed down cheap RE4 spinoff instead of a main game " with the defense of "it's not a dumbed down RE4 because there's a bigger FUCKING NON CANON MINIGAME in it!". Like saying that your mitsubishi isn't a gas guzzler because you only need to fill the tank every 3 days instead of 2 days

You need to cut the needless aggression out.

Controversial opinion time: 5 has the best controls (in my opinion) and while I love the RE series I have difficulty getting into the older ones (cuz the controls aren't as smooth) and the newer ones (cuz the controls are too loose) that said I while agree that it feels more formulaic (less of a journey with supplies and resources and more of a game).

I said it expanded the QTE system. I didn't say it improved on the story or whatever else.

It literally added more moves per target per character. That is my only argument.

Go read my original post. I only say it expanded the QTE system. Why are you so mad? Can't a person appreciate a game in different ways? RE5's story is a train wreck so what I got a boulder punch and a fun minigame out of it.

The thing I disliked the most about 5 is that all the jokes and campyness from 4 was just thrown out the window, and replaced with "muh serious" story. That being said, I still thought it was pretty fun on first playthrough, and Mercenaries is fun as fuck.

>invul

The biggest reason why RE5 isn't as great as it could have been is because CAPCOM didn't have a backbone when confronted by the crybaby niggers screaming "DAZ RAYCIST".
The same double standard jack offs who didn't complain about an American going to Spain to off a lot of their native villagers.
I mean, fuck, all of those twats weren't even fans of the Resident Evil series. They just heard about a game where whitey goes to Africa and kills blacks.

>CAPCOM didn't have a backbone when confronted by the crybaby niggers screaming "DAZ RAYCIST".

Kind of a mis rep of the story. They had the game looked at for one scene where a white woman was being dragged off by black dudes. It was determined to not be racist and was pretty fucking stupid to begin with. Regardless, they whitened up some of hte models, added some white and brown people, etc. Seemed like they backed down.


Then halfway through the game you literally fight nearly blue-skinned ooga boogas that jump 10 feet high and chuck spears at you.

>>381290783

The coop made it fun moreso than the QTE's though. 4 had QTE's and I hardly played that mercs at all. I never said the QTE's were good, just that I had fun with a mode.

It was built as a co-op game from the ground up

You won't have fun playing it single player

That's what Revelations was for.

I think he's making fun of you because of the term "INVUL" itself, I'm even on the fighting games scene and I've literally never heard anyone say "invul", and it sounds pretty stupid desu.

>halfway through the game

Agree, they only whitened the start because they knew the people whining weren't actually going to play the game in any case, so once they showed them "see guys? no racists here!" they went back to the super black enemies

I listen to a lot of fighting game stuff and play a few of them myself and I have heard it plenty of times. In fact, it's where I got it from. I usually say it when I don't want to type invincibility over and over.

>Why does this game feels like such a JUSTed low budget indie game?
that's my major complaint with most Japanese games. Sure /v/ loves that shit but I really enjoy how western devs polish videogames before churning out. Never understood how nobody here ever cares about how clunky the game is, but only for the le fun core gameplay meme (even though I really didn't enjoy it in RE5-6).

>>381283542
They understood some of what made RE4 great and misunderstood a lot more.

You also have to consider what kind of bad ideas didn't make it into RE4 due to scope cuts or arbitrary choices - things they may have simply gone the other way with RE5.

There's the cultural and demographic targets they wanted to hit in Japan and in the West, and the dissonance that results from trying to do that in a single product.

Lastly, this was at the height of the "if we copy call of duty, our game will also seem 5 million copies on day 1!" bullshit that was proliferating the industry.

>>381283542
What the fuck is indie about it? The production values are obviously high.

>>381293313

Maybe indie wasn't the right term but lazy. Changing a functional and "believable" system to have the player upgrade their arsenal by just fucking adding a menu screen reeks of lack of polish

All the complaints about single player and the retarded AI for RE5 are perfectly justified. Co-op is the best in the franchise though. Also, the attache case in 4 sucks. Being able to hot swap in 5 is infinitely better
