Resident Evil: Revelations 2 |OT| Yeah, but it's only $25

It's the prison from this game. Hunk looks awesome need to download him from the store.
I guess I didn't word that correctly but what level in raid is this this? I'm up to like 2-6 and seen nothing but resident evil 6 levels. And hunk is amazing. I'm using him and his downed attack is so awesome.
 
What stage is this? I'm on the 2nd set and still see nothing but RE6 stages.

It was a daily mission stage so I don't know.

I also seen the "Mayday" boss from Revelations 1 while doing the daily challenge. Also, I just have to say that I am loving how smooth and responsive the dodging is.

I am loving Raid mode but I hate how the weapon parts are permanent and you have to pay (in-game) money to get rid of them -_-.

Oh, damn! Can't wait to fight "Mayday" boss. I wonder if Rachael is there and what other enemies there are.

Raid Mode is so much fun. Too bad we have to wait til end of March for online play :(

Hmm, I'm working on coverage of this now.

I've had no issues with frame-times on my setup at 1440p but I have not been able to use any resolutions over that. nVidia DSR doesn't work and I can't go above my monitor's native resolution.

On a 1920x1080 monitor I get DSR factors of 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 and on a 2560x1440 monitor I only get 3840x2160 but MT Framework has always been a little weird like that for me.

Oddly at 1920x1080 frametimes are pretty much perfect using the built in framelock or using RTSS. At 2560x1440 it become a tad jittery unless lowering HDR Precision and Effect Generation to Standard.

If you guys are doing an article I'll key an eye out as you have way better tools than just FRAPS.
 
No decipatations or any other kind of visual damage is a real bummer. Made sense in the first game given enemies were fleshy blob things but enemies so far are humanoid so heads should be popping left and right!

Tried a little raid mode this morning.
I have to say I'm pretty disappointed with the shooting.
No head explosions, and no hit sounds at all, it feels like you're shooting at air.
Not satisfying at all, real shame.

Ah makes sense, haven't played today. Thank you. And I can't wait for online to play with my buddy. I can see myself sinking in over 50 hours easily with just this mode. So much better than mercenaries.

I'm pretty sure heads explode on normal enemies. Just depends on the weapon. Looked like a sniper took someone's head off clean yesterday.

So just to clairfy: The difference between the $25 and $40 versions of the game is the $25 version is just the main episodes and Raid mode while the $40 comes with all the DLC (HUNK, Wesker, Bonus Ep1 & 2, the 4 alt costumes, and the throwback map pack)?
Season pass comes with 4 episodes plus the 2 bonus, raid, hunk,and flashback if you pre-ordered. Disk or complete comes with all that above plus Wesker, outfits, and flashback map pack. Wesker stand alone is $2.50 and costumes are $10. Not sure about the maps since mine came with it. Hope that clarifies things. They also sell mivrotransaction things like more storage, and weapons but you don't need it.
 
Tried yesterdays Daily Challenge on raid mode and it was extremely hard at level 3. lol Tried the new special and add no trouble with the same level 3 Wesker. Pretty good stuff, got the Samurai Edge equipped on him!

I bought complete season (PS4). Both main ep and raid mode downloaded fine but downloading season pass giving me error. Am I doing something wrong?

God fucking dammit, why are companies like Capcom removing shareplay from their games?

This game would be perfect for split screen co-op but nooooooooooo, FUCK YOU CAPCOM!

I wasnt mad at first but then I remembered you can force online coop like that and got sad. I'm still holding out for a patch to play campaign online.
 
Is there a way to lower your level in raid mode? i'm missing out on medals because i'm above the recommended level.

*edit* I found it, you can change it before you deploy a mission.

If I buy only the Episode 1, can I upgrade it to the complete package without needing to buy it again paying the full price?
 
I can't believe this doesn't have online coop! I have two ps4s in the house yet I can't play this game with my SO! Forget split screen....

I think I know the last unlockable Raid character in this batch. You guys are gonna be unhappy. I sure was.

I think it's the matrix-glowy computer thing you have in the Raid room before picking your character. It's a non-character.

Cipher

Jesus, soooooooooo lazy if true.

Unless I'm missing something obvious... bummer, great a zero.

If true, a little eh, but the bright side is that there's more Raid Mode characters coming with the episodes coming forth.

Played about an hour of the campaign so far. Quick thoughts.

- my ai partner has died about 6 times already, I'm busy turning a crank and they're busy dying.
- shooting isn't fun at all, enemies don't react to your shots and so far seem to be bullet sponges.
- enemies look like they move in slow motion sometimes
- graphics are good I don't get the complaints here, looks totally fine to me for what it is. I like the look of the prison.
- having to switch to Moira to search for things got old after 5 minutes, holding her flashlight on enemies just to stagger them isn't fun at all.

I'm trying to like it but so far I just don't, I'll give it another go later and finish the episode up.

Alright so, any opinions on how my computer would handle the game? I have a Geforce GTX 645 and I'm able to run past RE games a-okay. I just want to know if I'll hit the same performance (60fps) and visual quality of the PS4 version. If not I'll do PS4. I don't expect anyone to know how my specific card would handle it, but maybe people can give me their experiences with their own setup on PC and I can go from there?
 
The AI may be bad, but it's nothing compared to Sheva's AI in RE5. My god that was the worst. Couldn't complete the game without doing co-op.
 
Are any of the guns you can buy with real money worth it? Anyone bought any?
Nah. They are decent but you'll be getting better things eventually after a few hours of play. Unless you just want to run through crap from the offset without a worry.

I just learned the skill to have your ai partners do attacks while you're not controlling them, should make things better. Also I like how your partner can't die to something random like those spinning blade traps, I witnessed Claire get caught in one for a good 5 seconds and she lost 0 health. Lol

I've watched some gameplay and the voice of the mysterious lady who talks to you in the campaign through the bracelets as well as in the Raid mode hub...
She sounds just like Carla Radames from RE6.
Don't tell me that she is the big bad that Capcom has said fans of the series will know?

I don't think so unless a discount method is setup for the stores, but I highly doubt it.

The price difference is pretty minimal if you buy the episodes seperately, only loss are some costumes which look dumb.

Would you recommend me to just buy episode by episode instead of the full pack?
I don't care too much with the costumes (I'd probably only buy one that I like the most and thats it), but it seems that there is some extra episodes, and I'm not sure if something else.

Also, since I will get it for XB1, I'm not worried about the platinum trophy limination for the PS4 version.

Wow, that good at least. and here I was thinking they did something good in making them avoid those traps. >_>

The PS4 seems have some huge frame problem(actually XB1 version too, just not as huge as PS4), Capcom please, no way this graphic will cause this kind of frame.

Was thinking of buying the PS4 version since I read on Steam Community and some Steam Reviews that the game also have huge frame drops on PC.
Now I'll wait til they patch it out.

Has there been a fix for the Raid Mode DLC stages not appearing on PS4? Character DLC works fine. I tried deleting and re-downloading everything and still nothing.
 
I just downloaded the compatibility pack on ps4 but the characters aren't showing up. Also raid mode has frozen twice now at the load screen after a mission.

How are you guys downloading the Compatibility Pack? The game says it's not available when I start it.

Do it through the store and go to the game's main page... not the in-game store link.

Man, I've been collecting everything and trying to get all the Medals in the Campaign. Have all the Tower Emblems, Parasites, and Kafka Drawings. 9/10 Medals on both Claire and Barry. I just can't seem to get that "get through the dark forest in 40 seconds" medal. Rushed through it a few times now and it just won't pop. Also need to somehow lure 8 zombros into the spinners.

wha? are you playing on hard? my Ai partner barely ever even got caught by a zombie and none of them have died once on two play throughs.

no idea what's going on there.

What bloody platform am I suppose to buy this on if every single one has a screwed up framerate? Are you telling me the Xbone version is the best performing?

It seems the Season Pass is basically the upgrade of Episode One to Complete Pack, am I right?

If it's $20, then it'd be Complete Season, which is the next three episodes + the two bonus episodes + HUNK. Only be missing out on the Raid Throwback Pack, Wesker, and Costumes.

Also, I need to play more Raid Mode, but so far it almost seems like all of RE6 has been converted into Raid Mode stages or something. XD; Have played the first five Raid Mode missions and the two daily missions, all seven levels have been from Resident Evil 6, various parts of Leon and Jake's campaigns thus far.

Very fun so far though, also while I'm sure is easy to do, I appreciate them including enemies from other Resident Evil games in the Raid Mode of this game. The Napad's from RE6 (big enemies with shells on their back) and the Executioner (the giant axe enemy from the first big fight in Resident Evil 5) both caught me by surprise.

edit: Oops, double posted.

Yep it's funny all the assets they're reusing, perhaps another reason why they're only charging 25.

Hoping with all the stage stuff, we get extra characters like Chris, Jake and Leon for Raid as well.

Played through both characters on PS4 and thankfully never noticed any heavy drops No issues with Raid either. Sucks for those that can easily notice this stuff. Only thing that i can't take is screen tearing.

Anyone actually able to upload data after a raid mission on pc? Always gets stuck on uploading for me and I have to force close the game.

I liked the shit out of what I was able to play.

This is a must-have.

Moira's flashlight breaks the game though.
You're able to clear mobs of enemies just using her, she's actually stronger than claire.
