Resident Evil 3 |OT| Desperate Escape

I always thought they cut the Bowgun from Claire's toolset to give it to Ada in her DLC campaign, as it later becomes her signature weapon in RE4 and RE6 for consistency sake.
I cannot even remember the last time I wasn't able to preload something on Steam. Shit is weird as fuck.
Yeah it would make sense.
Speaking of the Bowgun, it is a shame it never returned. It has lots of potential to be a really cool weapon. Imagine this, explosive bolts, fire bolts, poison bolts etc etc. It seems like it would be a really useful weapon in the current REmakes due to the ammo crafting.
If they do a CV remake, using the bowgun to take off limbs and it stabs them into the wall (or takes their limbs off outright) would be some great horror gore.
Been playing for hours, maybe 3-4 by now, and it is fucking goooood. Very fearful about length though, and Nemesis sucks.
I've been screaming for RE2R story DLC for over a year. People here disagree with me, but they dropped the ball on that. Ada/Marvin campaign etc. there were lots of routes for story DLC and I would of gladly paid for it too. With them not doing story DLC for RE2R, I feel like they are just gonna drop RE3R, add a survivor/mastermind or two to Resistance, and move on. Shame, because there are a bunch of routes for story DLC for RE3R as well.
I thought it unlocked at 1am EST? Wouldn't that be 7 hours (a little less now)?
Yeah that could be a good way to showcase next gen technology. Like you shoot a head of zombie of and it pierces to the wall while the body is at the same place it stood.
I agree with you on the DLC.
Especially cause Racoon City is a setting that is screaming for more stories. They could have also made some stuff from RE 1.5 canon as well like the cut monsters and Elza Walker. Ghost Survivors should have been an actual story dlc instead of reskinned Hunk mode. I wouldn't mind buying it.
That fact is interesting cause it does make me wonder if the devs of this game played them. I feel EW2 structure could have worked very well with REmake 3.
Spent my first 45 minutes in with the game. Too tired to go on, but the first impression is pretty damn good. But the game moves at a breakneck pace. Which makes sense as the zombie outbreak is hitting its peak.
On normal ammo seems to be abundant. Haven't been in real trouble in regards to offensive power, but the quickstep needs some practice. Zombies hurt you bad so it would help to master this quickly.
About the intro;

I really like the added part of the appartement; btw, Jill had a shit appartement haha
Yep, the Evil Within games would work well and look incredible in RE Engine.
Played the game for about an hour so far on Xbox. General impressions:
Really pleased so far.
- Game feels maybe a little bit more linear than RE2 so far, but there's still a fair bit of back-and-forth across areas so far.
- Game looks just as good as RE2 to me during gameplay. Cinematics are maybe a bit improved.
- The game definitely leans more on action than last time, but absolutely still focuses on horror too.
- Nemesis is fucking terrifying when it appears. It's an absolute tank.

Toying with whether to play this on Standard or Hardcore first. When it came to RE2R, for a first play I felt Standard was a little easy but Hardcore was a bit too frustrating with how tough everything was. Sweet spot would have been right in the middle for me, less ammo like hardcore but zombies not taking 10 bullets to put down. Un-sure which to go for for RE3. Don't want it too easy or too hard...
Enjoying reading people's positive comments. I can't wait to play it.

I beat the game about 10 minutes ago. I liked it and if I were to give it a number score it would be about an 8/10 (with RE2 being a 8.5/10).

Took me about 7 hours to beat on Normal difficulty. A solid companion piece to RE2. Graphics and gameplay are great as expected, story was interesting enough. My biggest issues is the lack of Nemesis and the content from the original RE3 game that would've been cool to play through (such as Gravedigger boss and the Clock Tower). As for Nemesis, I was expecting more moments of tension with him. The only time he chases you around in an open area is the first 1/4th of the game and the rest is scripted events or boss fights. Overall, it's a solid RE game and worth a buy if you're a fan. For anyone else it's better to get as a rental or on sale.
Am surprised the Collector Edition didn't bring the Extra DLC costumes etc like RE2 Collector..
Capcom forcing me to buy that on the side?? Capcom def ain't back.

Huh, there wasn't a code? It's a preorder isn't it, I think people here got the physical version with codes for the costumes.
In my case I got an email from amazon with the code. Game is arriving sat.
I'm starting the game and I have one question. Can you always temporarily defeat Nemesis when he chases you for upgrades or is he undefeatable like Mr X?
You can down him for stuff. All it takes is a single grenade.
I only got the OG Audio voucher. The actual box doesn't say anything about the DLC content like RE2 did.
Pretty sure you can't during the chase set pieces (like the bit in the trailers where he has the flamethrower).
It's incredibly stupid there's no pre-load. I won't have much trouble downloading the game, but there's folks in areas that will have to wait nearly a day, possibly longer to play.
Pre-loading on PC should be a mandatory requirement if you want to pre-sell your game. Physical copies aren't something we get to take advantage of; even my boxed copy of Sekiro came with a cardboard "disc" with a code printed on it.

Should have checked my receipt.
It's right there lol
But RE Collector had a separate slip inside the box for all the costumes. I suppose RE3 doesn't have as much?
Yeah fuck that second boss. Its not telegraphed how your supposed to beat it and it doesnt give you enough ammo to actually do what you need to do
damn at least i got fast internet but my classmate is going to have a terrible time :/
hi all, I have a NZ account on my PS4 alongside my main account. If I log into the NZ account and boot up the game, will I be able to switch back to my main account and play it as well and earn trophies and whatnot?
e: seems like this doesn't work!

I wish steam put clearly the remaining time until a game is available, it's so stupid. You can see it clearly on PSN, for example.
Well it's definitely supposed to be included:
Maybe check for a mail or something from the retailer.
Steam will launch in two phases. Europe and Asia in 30 minutes, and the rest of Americas in 5.5 hrs.
Edit: as of this post.

I'm in the UK so can download it in 30mins? That's awesome, I'll leave it to download overnight while it's quiet :)
Thank you :D
