I think that most, people that complain about controls, didn't play the series, before, sure i thought they were not great, but the more got used to them, the more enjoyable, the game is.

lol...you're all babies.

What makes a game control bad? Is it because you can't do what you do in GEars 2 that makes RE5 control bad? Well its not Gears 2. You need to learn to play with what the game offers and not think about...what could have been.

Control is EXACTLY the same as RE4 if you change the options. No one had a problem with that games controls...

 

 we shouldnt have to change the controls, that is why i had a problem with killzone 2...

since when? I don't like RE5 but it's not because of the controls. There's a reason controls can be altered. it's like expecting everyone to be able to wear the same shoe.

 

Im saying they should have call of duty controls (everyone loves them) and have less amo and running zombies chasing you. (for horror) while having strategy to where you shoot the zombies. That my friend is how they should of made RE5...

 

And I'd hate the game even more than I do now. There's a reason the game isn't called call of Duty: Resident Evil. If they went back and made real RE games, more would actually buy them and the series won't be dying in Japan. I won't expect you to play them though because kz2's controls are too much for you but that'll be beyond awesome IMO

 

are you saying if they made RE5 my way it would save the series??? (i dont think i quite understood what you said)

 

I had a sinking feeling that you won't. Did you play RE1,2 or 3? I'll bet you didn't. Thats why you think it should be like cod

 

damn you got me...i didn't play those...

 

I could tell easily. If you had, you'd realize that the series is very different from cod...even beyond comparion. I don't blame you for your opinion though. They tried to make thier own gears with co-op expecting to sell millions and  millions. We'll see how that turns out. The part I don't understand is the extensive bundling in Japan where it probably won't even break 0.3 mil on ps360 combined

 

you never know, cod4 did o.22 on ps360 w/o budles so im gonna say 0.7 for RE5 w/ bundles.

 

 

 I was actually talking about front-loaded sales not lifetime

The controls don't automatically become good just because they used to be worse.

It did for me, i've gotten comfortable with it, and it was blast, playing it with a friend. As for didn't play the series remark, I meant RE4, not pre-shoulder view games in the series.

4m dissapointed RE fans, lolz! j/k

Agreed. They sucked before but most didnt realize because the games were new. They were really revolutionary for there time. Now there have been plenty of  games out that have almost perfected the controls and we get this from capcom. Pure dissapointment on my part. I downloaded the game and played it for 10 min. I forced myself to play that long. The KZ2 demo however, I got used to the controls quickly, they made sense and were very easy.

The controls are fine. They are responsive and easy to work with. The complaints were mostly from 360 owners anyway, just too used to gears controls.


RE5 is not a shooter. It still holds onto the survival element. The inability to run and gun is part of that.

You either run or fight, not both.

 

Yeah, for me they suck. It takes way to long to select anything. I never did like having to combine AMMO with gun to reload. Just reload the damn thing. It felt sluggish, the AI was horrrid, ah, junk. It did look a lot better than I expected though. But as all the Wii people here say, " Graphics dont make a good game". This one is pretty no doubt, but blows hard compared to everything else out.
