We want zombies we want zombies!

Maybe there will be an alternate play so if you beat the game in X hours without saving, all the villagers "skin" turns into Zombie. The enemies stay just as smart as the villagers, but they look like zombies now.

Maybe if it got harder then it would make sense, unless you were refering to the fact that villagers are smarter than normal zombies?

I actually don't think ditching zombies is that big a deal... Obviously these guys are sorta like zombies, but since they're not real undead zombies they can bend the rules a bit (kinda like how in 28 days later, they weren't really zombies, they were infected with RAGE)... Making them stronger, smarter, faster, etc...

And although the basis of RE's storyline had to do with viruses that turned people into zombies, the zombies were really the least of your worries in the game... not much of a threat unless you were surrounded or out of ammo...

And I'm kinda steal this from IGN, but what sounds more scary to you, lightning flashing and seeing 1 or 2 zombies off in the distance, or seeing a couple torches heading towards you, then lightning flashing and revealing that there is a nice-sized group of weird-azz villagers heading (faster than zombies would be) towards you with knives and crap...

Though one thing I think is stupid in the trailer is when a villager grabs Leon and shakes him... What the hell is that gonna do?

It's funny because I was gonna mention something like that but decided not to...

Well, I found that funny... Or more like slightly amusing...

... Why? They're obviously smarter than zombies... Zombies stand around and then stumble towards you... These things come at you in groups with various weapons and work out ways to get to you...

In one of the movies (I can't remember if it's the one in this topic) it looks like they were even communicating with each other in a "You go this way, I'll go home!" sorta way...

And these things seem to be faster than zombies (able to run at you... I'm not counting V-acts as normal zombies)... Aaaand as for stronger, they can do more things (climb ladders and such), and can carry weapons.. Seems stronger to me...

What were you wtf-ing about?

Canyarion · 06-10-2004, 06:01 AM

Ehm I don't think theyre stronger. Isn't the T-virus supposed to make them much stronger? The fact that they don't carry weapons, has nothing to do with their strength.
These new guys don't look stronger, since Leon can now kick them and stuff...
