RE2 Remake. What would you want?

[Gradon]

Hmm, some things to stay put:

• Updated and sharp graphics, please.
• 'New' Gameplay, wouldn't mind that.
• ZOMBIES.
• Crimson heads, be alot scarier...
• MORE PLAYABLE CHARACTERS COZ IM A CHARACTER WHORE!
• Ada scenario, and past Sherry scenario on how she gets to RPD, and then you get bodyguarded by Claire, maybe boring to you lot but sounds great to me XD
• For the love of humanity, don't they DARE kill off Tofu's minigame!
• More weapons, I felt quite limited with what I had. :S
• Maybe some area, where in the background, you see the 8 Outbreak people, that'd confirm it as canon.
• More unlockables!

That is all.

[TheSelfishGene]

Quick-turn.
The rest of RE2 is great enough as it is.

EDIT: And maybe cull some of Leon's "Ada wait!" 's

[The Fallen]

For the gameplay mechanics to not emulate Resident Evil 4's. I want the original formula -- nothing else will suffice.

[Helegad]

True, Fallen. Very true. Scary angles are original evil, not RE4 shit.

[Gradon]

I believe RE4 was only scary because of no monsters/crappy ones, less puzzles, and less "OMFG WHAT TO DO?!"
If they remake a classic with RE4 gameplay, the game itself would be terrifying.
Albeit they don't fuck the story up is all.

[BLSR1]

Quick-turn.
And maybe cull some of Leon's "Ada wait!" 's

If anything, the need to add MORE.

[Twist]

If anything, the need to add MORE.

Imagine they lived together as a couple:

Ada: "Leon, I'm off to the grocery store"

Leon: "Ada, WAIT!"

Ada "Leon, I have to go visit my Grandparents".

Leon: "Ada, WAIT!"

Ada: "Leon, I'm just going off to destroy Umbrella, be back later"

Leon: "Ada, WAIT!"

Ada: "Leon, I slept with Chief Irons last night"

Leon "Ada, WAI- Wait, what?!?!"

[FeurMensch]

This is what I would really want in a remake

- Improved Graphics
- Classic mode or RE4 mode (gameplay type selection)
- More city street exploration.
- In game cinematics
- RE4 action commands
- Expand the streets ad sewer levels so them seem more realistic
- Re-do RPD to me more realisitc
- Be able to dodge/roll away from enemy attacks
- More dynamic sound design *
- Have dynamic 3d/pre-rendered backgrounds tied into each other
- Even more endings than original game
- Key characters can die (Leon, Claire, Sherry at any time in the game and this will effect the ending)

- More Zombie enemy variants with many more moan sounds.
- More enemies in the streets
- See any survivors you encounter die and then reanimate and peruse you
- Implement a heart beat sound effect when presented with many enemies
- Crimson heads return, this time make them more of a challenge
- Bring back hunters, only in labs though
- Bring back the deleted lab levels from Bio 1.5
- Enemies AI is more adaptable and will change as you attack.

- Have original RE2 unlockable along with Bio 1.5 **
- Expand HUNK scenario so we can see him all the way from gaining the G sample, till he returns to Umbrella

* Have maybe 20 different types of zombies with varring strength, speed and attack power
** That'll be the day...

I for one wish they'd take out the horrible 'love' between Ada and Leon.

Ada- Hi I'm going to fall in love with you after we've met in a hellish nightmare after 5 hours? Oh yeah...and I lied to you and will continue to do so! But you saved my life so that's instant grounds for marriage!

Leon- Ok! Ada kiss me!

Ada- Brb death

....shit if you ask me.

now for the serious stuff.
-Straighten out the timeline
-Maybe have some mention of the STARS
-Some more missions as Sherry and Ada
-Annette's G transformation
-Irons + mayor's daughter's corpse = ?????
-some parts as Wesker. (Wesker's report did mention him always in the shadows during RE2...perhaps some interaction between him and Ada)
-In the ending, a bit more of an explaination about Claire's leaving for Europe, and a bit of Leon's short time with Sherry.

Other than that...I think everything else I would have said has been stated a few times already.

[BLSR1]

I do think the should straighten out the timeline.

[Bertha]

Perhaps also some more interaction between Claire and Leon...and maybe Claire and Ada too. I mean seriously...the RPD building is big, but its not THAT big. Especially when you're running around in circles and backtracking constantly to do the puzzles.

Hm....perhaps even some mention of Jill and Nemesis. RE3 did occur before, during, and after 2 after all.

That would be awesome.

@ BSLR1: Damn straight! I'm pissed at how much of a mess everything in that damn timeline is.

[BLSR1]

Jill was only in the RPD for a short period.
Leon and Clair Arrive after she leaves.
Then Jill blacks out for a day.
Leon and Clair escape.
Jill wakes up and Raccoon City is destroyed.



They need to have the hole nemesis makes in the West wing in the REmake.

[Bertha]

I know the STARS shared the same office space...but the only ones ever mentioned where the Alphas. If they revamped the RPD building, they should reconfigure the layout for the STARS room.

Rather than Jill (since as you said she was passed out) perhaps Carlos or Nicholai. Carlos was most likely by Jill's side the entire time, save for his venture to the hospital, but Nicholai...he was wandering the city.

Of course...I'd rather have an re3 remake that supplied more info on Nicholai and his mission. Blending the games too much together would be a slight bit confusing and time consuming.

[TheOrganization]

yeah a mini game with nicholai would be good, not just the merceneries but one where you go about undertaking his secret mission
