I think the heavy pop in is because of the PS3?

Very likely, especially if you look at something like Wolfenstein, which was similar.

OH BOY. Someone is streaming The Evil Within, if anyone is curious: http://www.twitch.tv/savok_gear

No one post any spoilers here without marking them. Guy who posted the PS3 screens (Seraphiel) mentioned this to me. XD;

Thought so, I guess last gen and idTech5 do not work that well.
I hope PS4, Xbox One and PC will work better, but I'm pretty sure of that, the PS3 version is only 7 GB right?

Oh wow nice looking the stream before it gets reported by Twitch people.

Guys did they say for how long that 10% discount for Plus members will remain?
I'm afraid they gonna remove the discount today when the Store updates, should i go put the pre- order now before they remove it or do you think the discount will remain there until next week when the game comes out?

I think it says on PSN that the discount is there until launch.

My guess is that it'll disappear the second the game is released, right at the same instant the review embargo is up. Just like Bethesda did with Wolfenstein

With the game having leaked and retail copies starting to ship to stores for pre-orders. This was expected. Brace yourself everyone. ITS COMING!

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Funny, the guy who streams seems to be Russian....well that figures..

 

[Saphirax]

He also provided some comments on the PS3 versions performance.

I've preordered the PS3 version, hope it doesn't end up looking too bad .

Anyone have any idea when GMG sends out their keys for Steam typically?

Usually a few days ahead. My guess will be they'll be sent on this weekend, as that's when the Steam pre-load apparently starts.

why you do this to me? i'm too weak to resist ( .__.)

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Lol anybody seen the cutscene in the stream, there was a cutscene like in

Spoiler

Resident Evil 1, when you 1st meet the Zombie, and he eats Kenneth.

 

[GavinUK86]

I'm probably going to play this on easy first, because,

1. I'm a big pussy

2. I want to enjoy it for its story on the first play through.

What do you guys think? Good idea? Bad idea?

i'll be playing on normal. mikami stories are.... meh. this one does look like it could be an exception though.

 

[Dusk Golem]

Seraphiel (guy playing the PS3 version) confirms on the PS3, load times when dying are 15 seconds.

Great composition. The boy Sebastian fearless as fuck

 

[kodecraft]

Seraphiel (guy playing the PS3 version) confirms on the PS3, load times when dying are 15 seconds.

I just read that too, but to be fair the PS3 is only 7GB so not much going on there vs X1/PS4/PC.

 

[User 479360]

Beautiful screen

The game's enemy designs are great.

 

[SlasherJPC]

Seraphiel (guy playing the PS3 version) confirms on the PS3, load times when dying are 15 seconds.

Much improved. I would guess next gen would be even better in that regard?

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Would think so, because it has more resources to draw from.
PC will depend on SSD or HDD speed I guess.
PS3 seems to have VSync issues too.

Oh god, spoiler??

I think it may just be the lighting.

 

[Nibel]

15 seconds are a lot to me, but since this is last gen I hope that PC loading times will be better.

 

[Black Soma]

Seraphiel (guy playing the PS3 version) confirms on the PS3, load times when dying are 15 seconds.

Ah, nice. They were like 30-40 seconds in the build Pete Hines played.

 

[Dusk Golem]

Just calling PS3-playing dude Seraphiel from now on, as a heads-up.

"cutscenes are skippable, not much pop in anymore, no fps drops, lighting is like they said, pretty meh on (PS3)"

15 seconds are a lot to me, but since this is last gen I hope that PC loading times will be better.

To be seen certainly. However, 15 seconds is also a substantial improvement over the 30-40 we originally had.

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Sorry if its been mentioned before gents, but when is the review embargo lifted for this? I'm none too worried anyhow after reading DuskGolem's detailed impressions from preview events but still curious to see what reviewers think.

 

[Alkastelca]

He looks older? look at his hair.

Oh god, spoiler??

On some screenshots he also has a mustache so yeah something is definitely going on.

 

[hwy_61]

Have you played Mikami's games before or you caught up in the hype?

RE1, when I was like, 15. I liked it a lot from what I can remember!

 

[The Xtortionist]

That frustation sounds terrible for me lol, bulletsponge heads

Worked for RE4! Heads were spongey AND they could pop out a plaga

Probably gonna be the 14th. Hasn't been confirmed, but based on the release-day embargo for Wolfenstein that's the safest bet.

 

[kodecraft]

The guy in the stream is playing TEW like RE4, shooting everything in sight, melee when enemies get close, this is my play style.

Ammo doesn't seem so short in supply. You got other things to use to be effective, so Sabastian can kick some ass, instead of being a submissive survival horror protagonist

 

[Novum_Veritas]

You'll be satisfied with the beginning of TEW as a RE fan

@kode, which difficulty though?
If he gets plenty something tells me Easy mode.

Alright thx for that.

Damn, so we skipped RE4 and Vanquish, and tryna jump into TEW?

 

[hwy_61]

Sure, why the hell not.

Wow you're right. I never noticed that.

Interesting.

So supplies aren't quite as limited as in The Last of Us, but they aren't quite as abundant as in RE4, either. Guess we'll just have to experience it for ourselves.

 

[GavinUK86]

stream is ps3 right? looks pretty rough. as to be expected though i guess.

 

[TheBlueBomber]

Resisting the urge to watch that stream (watched a few mins, and i think that was enough to keep me happy lol) im so pumped for this to come out already

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Yes, it is the PS3 version.

 

[Northeastmonk]

That's how I feel when someone plays RE5 and 6 when they skipped 4.

Did the guy streaming just grab a copy off a plane? They got it pretty early.

@Twitch @Bethlog WTF? @AdamSessler @HomeDepot Not cool!

I've got my theories, I've taken a few peaks but I haven't watched in-depth. But from the bits I see, I notice the enemies have some differences, I'm assuming it's because he's near the beginning and this area with the

Spoiler

village

is an obvious RE4 call-back. But to be seen, all I know is they're going down easier from the bits I've seen in this early area than they did in the area I played (which is set in Chapter 9, where he is right now is Chapter 2).

I have to get out of here

From the looks of it, yes. Seems like a nice balance of "enough" ammo, not scarce.

It honestly looks good to me.

Yea I noticed you have to be quick on the trigger or whatever you're using as a weapon, because the enemies will duck and bob and rush you. So you can't really sit there and wait to get the perfect head shot, the guy streaming has missed a few times because of this.

Other than that he is pretty good at the game, kicking ass.
