Resident Evil 3 SPOILER Thread (Early Copies, Datamining, Leaks pre-release)
- Thread starter Dusk Golem
- Start date
Oh my dear lord..... HOW did these people get copies 2wks in advance! Send me to France
What is your CPU? I had this same exact issue with RE2 and it ended up being 4 CPU cores was just not enough to run that game. My 4690k was clocked at 4.7 and cpu usage would be fine until you walk over a loading barrier that causes the game to start loading assets. When this happened my CPU usage would spike to 100% and the game would freeze just like in your video. I ended up upgrading to a 9700k and the issue was gone.
Hm, Jill packs a punch in the Demo. 5 to 6 is short. Maybe he rushed?
I suppose they could have just rushed it, and then 5h30 is a good time.
Probably but I remember people saying the same of Remake 2. Players first run were between 3-9 hrs.
To be fair, I do remember my very first playthroughs of RE2R taking roughly 6hrs. And hardcore on 2nd run has to be done in less than 2hrs. Granted, it's with different scenarios.

Heads-up, beating a RE game in under two hours for a reward is a consistent thing in the series. There's rewards for this in the original RE1, RE2, RE3, REmake, and also the more recent RE7, RE2 Remake.
I was also going to throw this out here, pre-release a lot of the early reports on RE2 Remake were saying similar things, I remember someone's early first playthrough screen got out of someone beating RE2 is 5 hours and there being freak outs about it.
The game will be a bit longer than a single campaign in RE2, but only by a bit. There is more optional stuff, but no second scenario. The game does have an unlockable mode which remixes enemy and item placement, and of course Resistance as well. But to see how it ends up feeling overall.
Honestly you'll probably see varying play times based on a number of factors, though I will say this now Normal being easy doesn't surprise me in the least (in my opinion most RE games are pretty easy on normal).
It honestly all sounds pretty similar to the last few entries early reports, not to take away from some concerns but being the horror enthusiast this early word does sound quite familiar.
Hate how 5-6 hours is considered short now by some. That's a decent time given it's a remake of a PS1 RE game and people will no doubt beat it quicker or take longer.
Well, this recent developments hit my hype pretty hard. It's obviously just early impressions but they are talking about stuff that I was afraid of, particularly in cut content and campaign length.
I'm afraid once again RE3 might be under RE2's shadows.

Length I'm a bit disappointed, expected it to be a bit longer than the original (like 8 hours or so), but it's a small issue and he might've been missing a lot of optional content.
But hardcore mode having no ink ribbons, and autosaves, that sucks! Man I loved hardcore mode in re2 and that was the best way to play it that echoed as much of the original as possible, so I'm really disappointed by that. They probably made it to contribute to the different style of re3, but still IDK.
and no giant spiders...ooooooofffff
Well I guess better to be disappointed about those details now then when the full game releases ;) hype still on!

Doesn't it unlock only after beating the game once? I wanted ink ribbons the first time playing :(
Welp, RE Engine cannot render creepy spiders confirmed. Length is not problem for me, but the extra mode (MP one) is something i don't care about. Waiting for reviews and impressions before i buy it. The demo didn't sold me.
Goddamn Capcom. What the hell were you thinking? They are butchering RE3.
Can you ask him if there are some brand new enemies? After RE2 cut content is to be expected...

Oh so it begins. My first RE2R playthrough took 12 hours so I have 0 reason to believe someohe who allegedly has and completed the game in 6 hours and didn't rush it on first playthrough. Even if true, me and him have very differnt playstyles on a first run.
Then there's info from him that contradicts what we heard. Unless he can prove it I don't believe anything he says.

Sure he has the game and completed it because he's posting real screenshots.
I have an i7-4790k. I never had any issues like this in RE2 or DMC5, though. I'm thinking the stuttering I'm getting is some kind of bug related to framepacing. If I change the frame limiter in the game from variable to 60, then the problem becomes far, far worse.
I found one thing which helps with the problem. I have a 144gz g-sync monitor, and if I turn off g-sync and limit monitor to 60hz, then the problem is mostly gone.
I know, but he can be bullshitting about some of the fine details. Literally contradicts some stuff capcom said...and isn't that grave digger?
edit: it's not hehe

No, that's hunter gamma.

Few tidbits from the French guy sharing his opinion:
-No Spiders is confirmed.
-Interesting Tidbit: There's an in-game shop, you earn points for completing challenges in the game to buy unlockable weapons, infinite ammo for guns, and other things. One of these things is a return of the RE7 Tokens that give you special properties when you hold them in your inventory (even some for a challenge like ones that double the damage you take).
-Clock Tower is very small, composed of a few rooms and a boss battle. Hospital on the other hand is much expanded.
-Weapons the guy confirms (though says unlockable weapons in the game's challenge/point store):
-Knife
-Flash Grenades
-Normal Grenades
-Shotgun (can be improved with parts)
-Glock 19
-Glock 18 (fires bursts of 2-3 bullets)
-Grenade Launcher (can also launch planted mines)
-Lightning Hawk Magnum
-Confirms Nemesis has many forms during the game, more than the original.

I'm actually willing to bet the Park was changed to an optional location, since there's several of those in RE3 Remake now. I'm a bit suspicious because it is mentioned, and I can see a hypothetical scenario the Park was converted into an optional joint. But, to be seen! I would've expected it to be cut actually but there is a map for it in the UI files. Maybe the Park was cut in development, but I kinda' am thinking it might be something else up here.
