Resident Evil 6 Review

If for a moment forget the hysteria in the press and to abandon prejudices, the Resident Evil 6 can rightly be regarded as one of the most ambitious projects of the studio Capcom over the past five years.

The new part of the popular franchise has joined four separate stories with different characters in one story line, tied at the next global conspiracy Restored Umbrella Corporation andthe next version of its employees invented a strain of virus that turns people into zombies."Casting" primary characters include a selection of familiar from previous parts of the series of characters that make up a couple of newcomers.Stark contrast stands the previous games of the series significantly increased the scale of the events:and then our heroes will be to shift from one continent to another, adding to the traditional mechanics of various new types of gameplay.In fact, Resident Evil 6 - four different games, at least two of which are trying with varying degrees of success to try out unusual and highly controversial decision of game designers.

The first of the four parts of the narrative offers to try their hand at the role of Leon Kennedy and his new companion Helena Harper.Plot complication here revolve around the mad desire to save his sister Helena and Leon trying to understand the chain of events that led to the death of the president and the massive invasion of zombies.In the development of the plot mechanics and these episodes are most reminiscent of the last license of the series, due to the large number of 'normal' undead, interesting bosses, and more enjoyable for fansoriginal games surprises. However, like other episodes of the sixth part of this storyline suffers from three major drawbacks.First, the script too much bulge of tissue narrative - imagine that you walk into a room where the floor is somewhat lifeless bodies.You do control shot, throw a grenade or release the clip in potential adversaries, and nothing happens, but once you step over an invisible trigger, as the former dead with joyalive, requiring the controller to play solo in a series QTE.Such a dubious approach to the development of the history of the game is more resentment than delighted by a surprise attack another representative of the underworld.Second, the creators of the project from Capcom have relied on the system of shelters, while not awarding players a convenient control for this type of gameplay.Let them, with Leon tactics pryatok needed only a couple of difficult locations, but with the rest of the characters lack the normal mechanics is clear and strong rejection.

Finally, thirdly, the view from behind the shoulder camera and jump rather cause dissonance than the joy of the developers have decided to go by introducing innovations.And if a third person was made possible after a patch change, the camera is no longer possible to do anything.The rest of the campaign for the Leon is very exciting and filled with atmosphere of old parts, despite the fact that there are very few puzzles.It is important to emphasize that it has a sense of danger and, most importantly, enemies and unexpected traps with difficult bosses still give players the sought Challenge, reinforcing the desire to movefurther.Also tied to the passage of a joint two users co-operative presence on the screen dictates the second player, that will not only keep the bars next lift, butto help in the battle with the bosses. There is no doubt pleased that even in the absence of a living partner, the artificial companion has never let you down in difficult times.

The second part is about sweet couple Chris Redfield, who here is very similar to guzzle life of Max Max Payne 3, and his subordinate Pierce Nivensa.Although Chris was previously difficult to suspect the love of boys, this chapter is able to sow some doubt in you.In contrast, the campaign of León, in this part of the far more massive explosions and shootings shooting a bazooka, and battles with giant monsters.But as noted above, it is a terrible system of shelters spoils the impression from such a mixture of Gears of War and Call of Duty, although some types of bosses and enemies look quiteI wonder what makes us once again with a sigh of sadness spoiled pereuslozhnennym management experience.

The third episode is one of the weakest for six parts.Jack Miller and Sherry Birkin may have been able to create an interesting duet in theory, but in reality, too many fights and techniques melee close combat do not give the fullenjoy the game of the two actors.If a flourishes undertaken camera can somehow get used, then accept the obvious blunders melee mechanics boevki impossible, and once you understand that to kill any enemyIt takes at-least three successful strike as adopted shortly before the game session dinner be sure to ask out.Through the appearance of the boss at the end of each chapter is literally, and especially the final (the final) battle can only be described as the saying goes, triple feyspalm.How this quarter of the story could get to the final version of the game, and someone from the test group she could like - strongly unknown.And yet, gritting his teeth, until the next patch you were to pass this part at least, in order to get to the second (if not to the first) most important story campaign Resident Evil 6 - upHistory of Ada Wong. Today, with the advent of the update, you receive a message, and from developers, which among other things says the opening of the campaign Ada Wong and free access to it, regardless of the passage of other campaigns.

Single coil fourth episode of Ada Wong offers everything that we love about the classic series, unchanged.There are different puzzles and interesting levels with the effect of adrenaline, like a submarine, the plot narrative that captures the imagination and of course a little bit of stealth.Episode of Hell and the campaign for Leon - the best moments of the game, and most likely, like the fans of the fourth part of the series. Too bad for the pleasure need to spend at least 15 hours for the passage of two is not the most powerful sections of the game.

Resident Evil 6 is trying to be the most successful project, offering players all that can give them a real pleasure, even trying to modify the elements that have become a part of corporate identityseries.For example, this item is included in the tradition, as plants, now is not just the sum in a healing potion, and is divided into different versions of the wafer with tablets, which can be used, one forminimum health recovery. A bit of realism and all the action adds physics objects, forcing the heroes to step over the dead bodies.

Monsters that in the last few games license much lost ground, can now boast an army of more than fifty different creatures.Not only that, now the zombies are different in speed, appearance and type of movement, so once the game has armored zombie cops randomly firing from automatic weapons, semi-decomposedbody style "Evil Dead" and the immortal enemies, consisting of pieces of broken bodies. Bosa, as mentioned above, have made a big step forward by offering monsters for every taste: from the invisible to the deadly giant snake or tarantula centaur.

Resident Evil 6 - a significant step for the entire series as a whole suffers from unnecessary scene fragments, sometimes unsuccessful management, a large number of QTE, poorly designed systems and sheltersnot always friendly camera.If you throw out of the game two episodes of the four trim levels are boring, make the intersection of stories more interactive than just a collection of screen savers, and to correct the above shortcomings, we have before usIt would be probably the best Resident Evil in the history of the series. With regard to multi-user mode beyond the traditional Co-op, then the activity is equal to zero.Players do not even use the opportunity to invade the world of the other players (in the style of Dark Souls) in the form of monsters and kick someone's ass, not to mention the mode Mercenaries. A pity - some interesting ideas in the rudiments of the game is definitely there.
