Resident Evil 6 What type of mercenaries do you think RE6 will have?

[JujuLodestar]

I actually guessing a mix of the Slay all enemies and Re5 mixed with ORC type of controls but if it's actually zombies (with feet of Hunters) what do you think they will do
(I understand RE4 &5 were infected humans) but if you have zombies don't you think they have a different type rather than just killing here's an idea: Missions for trophies or something or maybe unlocked content here's some idea for a mission
Survivor: Cleared you're first mercenary mission
Slayer: Clear mercenaries without taking damage
Team slayers: (Same as Slayers but in DUO mode)
Team Survivors (Same as survivors in DUO mode)
Hero of Raccoon: Clear every stage at least once
Shinigami (Translation-God of Death):Clear all stages with an SS (guessing they will have ranks)
Edit: Can someone tell me if you can get infected in this game

If I had to guess I would say

Characters that I know for a fact will be in it (The maingame playable characters always make the cut.)
Leon
Chris
Jake
Sherry
Piers
Helena

Characters that I believe will be in it
Ada
Simmons
HUNK
Claire
Jill
Albert Wesker

Characters that I HOPE will make it (but I think are unlikely)
Alex Wesker
Krauser
Luis
Steve
Barry
Rebecca

Wesker, Luis and Krauser are dead, so I don't think that they will be in RE6 mercenaries, but... But I want Barry (in fact, he is alive) with his revolver a lot!

Luis and Krauser I agree with...However, I don't think Wesker is such a stretch...He's one of the most popular and pivotal RE characters of all time...So I'm sure he'll be involved...

 

[bruno]

I would like to see Jill and Claire, even though they aren't in the main story. I'd also like to see other "lost" characters like Barry, Rebecca, Carlos or Billy, but I don't think we will see them in Mercs.
If Ada really has a "clone", I'd like to see both of them, with different fighting styles, weapons, items, etc.
Another nice addition would be a generic BSAA soldier, or a bunch of them and you can chose the type of soldies.

Them being dead means nothing.

After all Krauser died in RE4 and yet he appeared in mercenaries.

And lets not forget Albert and Excella both appeared in mercaneries even though they to died in their respective games.

Its not a matter of "if they are alive" since this game is a mingame that has no bearing on the story.

 

[KennedyKiller]

There was another thread, called Mercs Dream Roster...This is my post from that...So, I know the vast majority of these won't happen, but It'd be so cool...Hey, I can dream can't I...

Leon-RE6, RE4(With Jacket of Course!), Mobster Attire, and Dante from DMC's outfit...
Chris-S.T.A.R.S. and BSAA(The BSAA version of 6, not that it looks much different), and Ryu from Street Fighter's outfit...
Jill-S.T.A.R.S. Casual (I'm not a fan of her BSAA looks)
Claire-RE2, RE: Damnation
Helena-RE6, other possible skin...
Jake-RE6, Albert Wesker attire
Peirs-RE6, S.T.A.R.S. attire...Maybe give him Brad's outfit, or Barry's outfit...
Sherry-RE2 (only fitted for her older form), RE6, and a goth look...Cause that'd just be cool...
Carlos-RE3
Wesker-S.T.A.R.S. and RE4
Manuela-Standard RE: DC outfit
HUNK-RE2, RE2(Maskless)
Ada-RE6
Lisa Trevor-HOW FU-KING COOL WOULD THAT BE!!

That's a 28 Character Roster...That's flipping insane, but would be so freaking sweet..

 

[JujuLodestar]

Yeah i miss the Lost characters
i don't like the idea of maskless HUNK
Also the damnation Claire was an Alternate costume for claire in ORC that they cut off
actually....
Leon RE4- Jill- RE5 Carlos-Casual had costumes cut out
BUT the main point of this thread was do you think that they will go with ''Defeat as many enemies as you can''
Or a Like Bio-Hazard or in a way Nemesis type mode (RE6 Nemesis Mode:That giant mofo in the trailer try's to kill you while you kill zombies)
(Bio-Hazard: Collect C-Virus Samples while Eliminating the Infected)

 

[Redfield Fan 93]

Since they are blatantly dropping SH and heading towards action, Mercenaries should be beefed up lots.
All these are either what i would like to see.

Game Modes: one mode gets tiresome after a while
(SP & CO-OP)
RE4 & 5 style time limit mode
RE3's Run to extraction and get kills to increase time before time runs out was fun and alot more challenging than 4 and 5s.
No Escape mode where your score is increased by how long you survive for, death is inevitable.
Game mode where its just fixed cameras and slower paced would be cool for older fans like myself to play.

Characters: Loads more Characters for longer replay value
(With a variety of clothing from past games, NOT retarded costumes. (SP & CO-OP)
Chris - Costumes (RE1, REX, RE5)
Leon - Costumes (RE2, RE4 COAT,)
Sherry - Costumes (Similair to RE2 outfit)
Jill - Costumes (RE1,RE3,RE5 BSAA)
Jake - Costumes (Weskers RE1, RE4 & RE5 Outfits)
Claire - Costumes (RE2, REX, Regeneration)
HUNK - Costumes (SAME AS EVER, NO REVEAL!)
All characters from RE6 and all Secondary Characters in the other games such as Carlos and Sheva and ALL S.T.A.R.S Members would be incredable and would make me reconsider if RE6 is worthy of my satisfaction because ATM im not as pumped as i have been for any other RE game...

 

[bruno]

I would like to see a 6-player mercenaries game. Also, a FREE versus mode.
However, I fear that they'll leave out as much extra content as possible for DLCs. For example, they may sell lots of costumes seperately, or a scenario with Ada's point of view, etc..

Redfiels, read my last post in this thread:
http://residentevilnews.com/community/threads/more-re6-info.4518/
There's a lot of Survival Horror elements in this game, and it is going back to the RE origins, while keeping a modern gameplay.

 

[Gar Bageman]

Has anyone in the know said whether or not there will be a death-match mode? That would be pretty cool.

One thing I do know; Barry + Running and gunning = One happy Dan

Knowing the fact that Re5 had versus mode, we can hope for dm in Re6.

 

[Aleck]

I like Barry too, but they need to give him a more updated outfit and another signature weapon, as opposed to the same old red vest and revolver. I realize his appearances are rare, but he should at least get updated in his looks since everyone else has.

If it's just cameo appearances I think his look should remain the same...So that the players can identify more and bring back such great memories...If it's actual STORY driven game that he's in then he should be updated...

 

[tharsheblows]

I cant wait for a new mercenaries mode. Capcom said that mercenaries will be there most expansive mode yet. I think that there will be more than two players who can play mercenaries because the pre order mercenaries maps look huge. I hope that a lot isnt changed with the rules of mercenaries. I hope that each character gets there own load out and we can't pick each individual weapon. I hope that each weapon loadout is BALANCED and not one is OVERPOWERED than the other. For example. Wesker (S.T.A.R.S.) weapons are extremely stong where as sheva (CLUBBIN) are weak. There needs to be a balance in everyone's load out. Although I kind of like the weak loadouts because this made me better with mercs as I can play with anyone and still manage to keep a 150 combo on any stage. Practice makes perfect. I hope that there is a difficulty setting on mercs to give mercs more lasting appeal. The enemies should always be random, I dont want to know what is gonna come out at 50 on every playthrough. I would also like enemies from previous installments of Resident evil to make a return in the mode. I would hope ALL of the characters from the story are available for mercs, even the late President Adam Benford and the new antagonist Derek Simmons. Hell even put Helena's sister in there, the more the better. I also hope that enemy spawning is also worked on so that there should be enemies on the map at all times. Don't you hate it when you kill all of the enemies on screen and you can find anymore and lose your combo because they haven't came out yet? (Missle Area Stage I'm talking to you) This was improved upon with the dlc mercenaries reunion but it still needs work.
Other Modes

RAID MODE

For the people who dont like the time action-timed mini game, this should be a mode for them. I haven't played raid mode but it looks kind of like what revelations story mode would be if it was 2 players so it doesn't really appeal to me as the same as mercenaries. I shouldn't speak on this as much seeing as I haven't played it.

HORDE MODE

Imagine having a horde of zombies/ BOWS trying to kill you nonstop until everyone dies while each wave increases in difficulty, sound fun doesnt it? I have a feeling that if this is included that it would combines with mercenaries but I hope it isn't. Who knows? I may like it that way. Their should be at least 6 people to play this mode with.

SLAYERS/SURVIVORS/VERSUS MODES

I have a feeling this will return seeing as it was in Operation Raccoon City and RE5. With the new mobility in RE6 such as run and gun, this should be a blast. No more stopping and shooting. The modes from ORC should also return but should be improved upon greatly.

CHARACTERS/ MAPS DLC

I think its obvious that dlc will be returning. I think that they should do character/stage packs based on virus and/or who are they affiliated with. for example:

S.T.A.R.S. Pack Includes: Barry, Rebecca Weskers Jill (S.T.A.R.S.) Stages: RPD, MANSION ETC.

Uroboros Pack Includes : Sheva Alomar, Josh Stone, Wesker (Midnight), Irving, Excella Stages: Volcano, Public
Assem. ETC.

Where have you been pack (lol): Billy Coen (UPDATED), HUNK (UPDATED), Rebecca (Updated) Barry (Updated)

SOUNDTRACK

For the love of god, please make the music random and/ or change in the online modes, at least for mercenaries. I would hope that they will include some of the The Mercenaries 3d soundtrack. At least put the survivors theme in mercenaries just for me lol.I don't really have a problem with the soundtrack just change it up a bit.


Well that's about it, cant believe I just sat here and wrote all of this but mercenaries is one of my favorite online modes ever. This maybe the first time that I try online mode before playing the story considering how much I enjoy mercenaries. DONT LET ME DOWN CAPCOM LOL.

PS: MY APOLOGIES FOR DISCUSSING MODES OTHER THAN MERCENARIES.

Love the idea for the soundtrack or at least enable us to use music from our XMB (Nemesis theme ORC )
I wouldn't mind those DLC thoughts but to be honestly i just hope they keep mercenaries to the minimal i don't feel like the 6 players is really needed (Not just cause the game is called Resident Evil 6)
But we'll see soon enough

Thanks so much for the reply, I thought I killed this thread with my long message but it's nice to know that it was read. I just cant help myself when it comes to mercs or the other online modes. I would still love mercs if it was still 2players but I think it would be much more fun with playing w/ 2 or more partners. I wish Capcom would've showed us a teaser for mercenaries rather than the gameplay honestly but the gameplay was most important.

Huh....looks like that's something we got in common, also my laptob's f-uped so i didn't notice it actually i like all you're ideas really their....crafty
But i have one problem with over two people....
How well they cordinate with the team...I'm a Lone Wolf myself but if i'm on a team i'm a team player I've met some pretty ungrateful people always asking for my items without giving me anything then they spam the ''come on!'' or start shooting to the brink i've muted my t.v for matches I would rather have the ''If you don't work with you're partner you're screwed'' moment over the whole ''Team'' based kind of mode anyday

Well you're going to meet a lot of ungrateful people when playing online and that's on any game. This is why you need to communicate with your partner.I've also played a lot with out a communication and sometimes you just know that someone is good just by what they do when the game starts or how the play when the game is in session. Although I hate quitting on people, I would if someone kept spamming the "come on" button because this lets me know that they are maybe new and dont know what they're doing or just being a complete dick. I would hope that they would learn from me quitting that it is highly annoying and not to do this to future partners or they will also quit. I don't know how someone can play online games with the tv on mute. I need to hear if someone is behind me or coming from the side by hearing there voice. I've always played as a team on RE5. Whether it was through co-op story or mercenaries I never played it alone. For a lone wolf like you I would suggest that you can maybe join some type of RE5 mercs clan or become gaming friends with a player you've played with and you know he knows how to play if you dont like playing with random players. You wouldn't have to worry about knowing if your partner is good or not because you would already know because you've played with them before. Also if you like joining randoms (l do this a lot) on mercs join the Japanese. Almost Always the Japanese players are extremely good. I have met a bunch of people who Ive added who are good at this mode and dont have to worry about the crap that you put up with. Now that I'm good at it I still like to join randoms and help them out or be surprised at how how good sum1 is. This crap I wrote is a cluster f***k, I hope you understand this.

I understand completely and i'll tell you this i can manage to hear the majini's even with the mute button,Hell i even heard the exacutioner swing on me with my t.v mute and i got out of the way
I'm not one for teams though i've been a Lone Wolf my whole life (gaming wise and not)
But i agree the Japanese are the ultimate at RE5. I manage very well on my own and do better as well but i've been put with so many ungrateful people i refuse to be on a team (mostly why i insault my own teamates)
Put i still end up saving their *** everytime
