Apparently this game takes place 10 years after Racoon City Incident, which would leave it about one year before the events of RE5, which probably means Wesker ain't dead, and being the final boss in competitive UMVC3 just isn't enough for him.
Seems like it'll be RE2 style again with the multiple character storys all happening at same time (Leon in America, Chris in China, Ashley/new guy somewhere). Just judging form the trailer, I can already tell I'm going to like Leon's story more than the other two's.
Anyway, I'm excited for this. Re5 was aite, but I'm hoping they take different routes between the two aka. Chris being more rambo-style missions while Leon is more survival-ish.
Leon > Chris btw. Discuss.

RE4 was the last really fun Resident Evil for me, while RE3 was the last "creepy" RE imo. I always loved the books and the old story lines, now its just action shoot-em up style instead of "survival horror", at least that's how I view there turn in styles after RE3. Was hoping RE6 would take a turn back to the old ways and make something that scared me a bit more, don't think I like how this one looks, might be fun to play but just not what I was wanting. :/

The Las Plagas were zombies, they just weren't undead.
at :34-:36 why did they switch from leon to the women in that scene lol, also is it just me or is the character models and textures weak for a game thats coming out in these days. Looks like could have some decent zombie gameplay though.
hopefully it will be designed as a single player game this time. I didn't care about RE5 at all because the single player stuff SUCKED and a game just isn't scary or atmospheric at all in coop.
also rofl i forgot how bad capcom is at writing decent dialog in their games.

Yea same. I remember being scared shitless burrowing RE3 and realizing that Nemesis doesn't "go away" when you walk into a new area. as far as personal favorite list of RE's go, mine is : 4, 3, CV, 5, 2, 1. besides the multiplayer, RE5 was just meh. I might of rated 2 over CV, but i played 2 for first time ever like a year ago, and it just felt really outdated. Played it for lore/understand what leon/claire was like originally. Found it pretty cool how Leon went from RE2 the "new unexperienced rockie, who's lucky to make it this far" to RE4 Leon "cool collected CIA solo man BAMF" :D

i doubt this game will be anything like that of the pre-RE4 games, but i can see how they work slightly more elements of survival in Leon's story to balance out the "guns blazing don't give a f*ck about ammo" route of chris.

...and why is Ashley in this?
avenge daddy??? i didn't think she was THAT annoying. it's easy to hate on her (and even sherry, although she has more leniency considering she was like 8-10) considering you have to drag her along, barely does nothing to help you, and provides another game over condition. I'll be happy if they include claire somehow though, but that's really unlikely
