| RE relies way too much on shooting to switch perspectives every time. It would get annoying. I find the OTS camera just fine. _________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

It wouldn't have to. OTS and shooting aren't exclusive. They could totally have less enemies, or just less times where you would shoot them, and still have OTS.
They could also mix in fixed camera angles for areas without any shooting, just to enjoy a great location._________________ -Vae Victus-Suffering To The Conquered-"The ultimate lifeform...Tyrant", Albert Wesker, REmakeConsumer Recreation Services  |

Nothing needs to make sense in video games. I would assume the batteries would just keep going foevah.
Btw. Revelations is going to have the ability to use temporary first person view while shooting. It was also used in Dead Aim. |
Oh ok.Anyway,had an idea.Wouldn't it be cool to have to find the batteries?That would be sweet!If you didn't use them you could just sell them.It would be interesting I think. |

| Man, resident evil 2's camers system relies on predefined angles, which I didn't like. a lot.
But re4 and re5 has improvised their camera system, which I super liked. |

I think there was some game you had to find batteries for your flashlight... Anyone played Alan Wake? I never did but I'd assume it had that.
A nice way to create more suspense. Just make it so the batteries or some equivalent don't run out TOO fast, like in Penumbra or Amnesia. They are scary games but that would take a bit away from the game._________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |

| I want shooting in my RE games so switching perspectives is just a bad idea. The way they have it now is just fine. Also, they could have the flashlight work like the headlamp/nightvision in AvP. Have a headlamp that only lights up a small part of your view and then have nightvision that lights everything up but runs on a battery. So you have to stop using the nightvision to let it recharge. Actually finding batteries would suck though. Just let the flashlight recharge on its own when not in use. _________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

Even though I really like Resident Evil 2, I have to agree with you on the whole camera system. It gets annoying after a while, but you also kinda get used to it and learn to deal with it. Resident Evil 4 camera controls were awesome because you had SOME control over the camera, but not complete control like in Resident Evil 5. I like the camera system in Resident Evil 4, but at times I did get kinda annoyed with it. When it comes to the camera system for Resident Evil 5, I hated it. That's odd because the camera system for RE5 is very similar to the camera system to Final Fantasy 12, which I liked. To me being able to control the camera completely in a game like Resident Evil 5 is a bad choice. I prefer the camera system of Resident Evil 4 and would like Capcom to make another Resident Evil game with that camera system |

| I must add that moving and changing the camera angle was a bit weird in DA. I got used to it but it was hard at first and felt really awkward. _________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |

Speaking of, do you remember how Leon held the flashlight with his gun in the RE4 Beta? That's something I would like to see.
Even a flashlight on the gun.
I didn't like the flashlight on his belt the whole time..._________________ -Vae Victus-Suffering To The Conquered-"The ultimate lifeform...Tyrant", Albert Wesker, REmakeConsumer Recreation Services  |

It should've been a whole game...
Come to think of it, it could make a cool spinoff  _________________ ~The Weapon of Mass Distraction~ COMMUNITY:Resident Evil Forums Chat Group: [link]Resident Evil Forums Facebook: [link]Come check my Let's Plays: [link]Gaming forum I'm moderating: [link] |

| I liked aspects of it. Mainly just the animations for Leon holding the flashlight in dark areas. I wish we had some stuff like that in RE4. _________________ -Vae Victus-Suffering To The Conquered-"The ultimate lifeform...Tyrant", Albert Wesker, REmakeConsumer Recreation Services  |
