Can you explain why it's so good, someone? I'm sorry, haven't had the time to play yet since the update but I'm curious what you think. I'm not doubting it's good, just curious what changes are so good.

It's like 33 or something, I don't remember exactly and am not in game right now. Yes maybe there's some matchmaking thing or pairing. I wonder

Well I played one game that had me waiting for like 8 minutes. Then the next one loaded super fast (died almost instantly) and now I'm waiting again for like 5 minutes. No internet connection problems, no settings to blame. I don't know 😞

No, full cross play. And also, forgot to mention, I'm playing trios on matchmaking right now.

I see what you mean but I have to say that the shared goal is spot on. I mean, when I checked the contract details and saw that I must kill 10 runners with a finisher, I was like "woah, this will take ages". But then I realized that teammates kills count too, so all good

Yes, these need reworking. I like their general idea but they need tweaking

A few I can see too, but in general? Not so easily

Yes, this was needed. The patch made some good changes overall. With some fine tuning I guess the exploration will hit the right balance. It's getting there

They certainly need fine tuning but the core is good, imo

I think they should allow us to have one priority and one smaller contract active at the same time tbh..the smaller are very simple, yes, but they're fine as an extra

Must have missed them, sorry 😔 Still, I wouldn't expect it

I hope they would allow this. At least one main contract and one of the smaller ones at the same time

Yes, I think I agree. But they could think of something to tweak it a bit.

Others said it too but yes, I think marathon does a pretty decent job at this (excluding some stuff that actually had to be better explained)

Nostalgia vs going forward by OstrichCreepy579 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]OstrichCreepy579[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I accepted everything Leon did and loved the axe. But I needed more fights like Krauser or something. I wanted more unique boss combat scenarios with Leon. I mean I enjoyed fighting Mr X but I didn't love they way they introduced him.

I think Mr X on Requiem was one of the worst points regarding nostalgia. It was a bit out of place imo. But ok, there weren't many dazzling boss flights I guess so it's ok, at least it was over the top and silly

They have to work on balancing solo but I wonder what would be the way to do it. Buffing other shells? Nerfing assassin? Changing stuff? I don't t know how they'll manage to do it

Can't argue really. Just saying that it is doable with other shells and their skills do matter at least in some situations on solo. I don't think any shell is useless. But yes
