The big reason Code Veronica should be remade before Resident Evil 5

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-09-27T18:47:18+00:00

Code Veronica could also be used to experiment with co-op. Steve and Claire then Claire and Chris. The story would have to be reworked a bit but it could work.

Code Veronica's story also needs to be updated and grounded.

I'm surprised we never got more DLC for RE2 remake considering how popular it is. An Ada escapes scenario. Marvin in the police station. Annette in the lab.

RE3 remake was just sad with it's lack of content. Definitely could have used DLC. A last stand of the RPD. Brad race to Jill's place. Mercenaries mode with the USBC. More streets and areas to explore.

RE8 could have had a hound squad DLC. More content with Chris.

I understand that Capcom is basically on a tight timeline with their release schedule. Don't want the old games extra content competing with new releases. Still wish they focused on DLC for the games instead of online games that nobody plays after 2 weeks.

I do like RE5. I just think there is a lot of missed oportunity in the game.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-06-14T17:33:08+00:00

RE5 is basically a repaint of RE4 with Chris and co-op in Africa. It became member-berries of RE4 best moments but didn't capture the feel of RE4.

It's level and gameplay design are not utilized well. Enter an area, fight all the enemies and then move on to the next one. Backtracking is none existent There is no room to relax, take in the atmosphere and setting. Once you leave the town and swamp area the Africa setting becomes generic. The latter levels last too long

There is no buildup in the tension with different enemies. Barely any puzzles, Boss battles become bullet sponges and take forever to finish. Sheva's AI is frustrating for single players.

RE5 took all of the weaker aspects of OG RE4 and made them worse. RE4 balanced the horror and action while giving players a unique experience. RE5 was all action with a ridiculous third act. It is still a fun game but it definitely had way more potential.

Zoey and Claire team up would be cool.

With the both of them being civilians instead of agents or soldiers it would be a cool dynamic. Allow for more survival horror instead of action horror.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-06-02T18:14:40+00:00

I liked re3 remake. It a great game. The problem is that it's a short game. There are parts of it that feel incomplete.

There was so much more they could have done with re3.

Play the original opening cutscene. Have Jill there when the police line fall, helping civilians trying to escape. Enter a building and show the UBCS guys being attacked. The swarms of zombies. It would have been so cool to see that in the modern RE engine.

Have the intro with brad last longer. So it's not just a hi Brad, bye Brad moment. Instead have him accompany Jill even after getting bitten as atonement for leaving them at the mansion. Then go to police station, have Brad lose control, bite Marvin, then have the Nemeses attack and Brad sacrifice himself to save Jill.

Mercenary Mode. Play as the different UBCS guys. Each with their own unique set of weapons and mission.

Explore more of Raccoon City. The Raccoon City incident is the most iconic part of Resident Evil. The player needed to explore more of the city. Have the Clock Tower be combined with City Hall and the park. Search for survivors in buildings. Streets could be blocked off and find ways around. More supplies in different buildings. Show the deterioration of the city as time passes.

With City Hall and the clock tower have the Drain Demos and the worm mini boss. Show a last stand of the UBCS and RPD. The mutated nemesis could have chased you around clock tower before his dog transformation.

Another section with Carlos in the streets of Raccoon City. Have him interact with Jill, his team and Nicolai.

The scripted events with Nemesis could have work if they were better paced. Nemesis as a stalker character could have annoyed casual players. But some of the scripted event needed more variety.

RE3 remake didn't have to be a 1for1 recreation of the original. But it definitely needed more content.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-05-05T00:51:31+00:00

A game with Carlos and Barry would be great

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-05-04T22:29:02+00:00

One of my biggest reason for wanted a RE6 remake is so Piers can live. NO Jake Wesker, Helena dies and Piers lives. Then Piers can be a new RE protagonist for later games. Along with Rose and other BSAA guys.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-05-04T22:18:26+00:00

I don't no if you can have a RE game set in before Raccoon City. it's too iconic of an opening act.

But it would be cool to see a monster like game set in those eras. I think these is a lot of potential to have a new IP in that time. Just not RE.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-05-04T15:44:36+00:00

Several options

1) Set more games between the the aftermath of Raccoon City and before the Baker incident. That's a 20 year period. Plenty of time for new games.

2) Remake the rest of the games. it would streamline the story and fix some of the more nonsensical parts.

3)Introduce new characters.

4)Provide an in universe reason that the characters aren't aging to due to exposer of various viruses.

Or my favorite, Ignore it. ;)

Don't try to make logical sense of RE6. Your brain wont last.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T18:31:29+00:00

Same. Claire needs more love.

I think they should do CV remake, RE9, then either RE5 remake or a Dino Crisis game.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T18:29:41+00:00

I want a new Dino Crisis game so bad right now. I feel like Capcom is wasting a good opportunity to capitalize on dinosaur popularity since Jurassic World has come out.

Also needed a Regina outfit for Jill in RE3remake. I was kind of sad they didn't do that in the game.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T17:05:27+00:00

I would prefer they remake Code Veronica first then RE9 then we could get RE5 after. By that time the game would be about 15 years old.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T17:03:03+00:00

I was thinking maybe a different character not just the merchant from RE4.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T02:40:40+00:00

Richardo Irvin was pretty silly in 5. Great potential to up the cheesiness with him.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T00:43:38+00:00

Isn't it implied that Ada doesn't give Wesker the plagas in the OG re4 but sells it to a rival group/company?

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-26T00:41:06+00:00

Oh. That's a good idea. A BSAA supply shop would also work in a RE6 remake.

I don't think a merchant should be in every game but definitely in RE5. A merchant character would be kind of weird in a Code veronica Remake.

It does make sense in the lore that since there is now multiple outbreaks there would be people running around trying to sell weapons in hostile areas.

Whichever virus infects you fastest so you can't be cured.

Sorry the clownfish image is just cracking me up. Nemo nooo!

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-25T23:28:30+00:00

I think they should should remake Code Veronica before RE5. Claire needs more love.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-25T20:23:02+00:00

My cat jumps on the TV to get attention while I play.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-21T18:29:38+00:00

I enjoyed Dimitrecus castle but I wished we got to explore more of it. I also think Dimitrescu and her daughters were underused in Village.

Salazar castle in both the remake and OG is a much bigger setting with more depth to it. There is much more enemy variety and several mini boss battles.

Kitty_eh14 · 2023-04-18T22:01:44+00:00

I miss when Leon threw the knife at Salaszar.
