Granted, it was likely done to keep the sense of tension high, but in the end it seems to discourage teamwork, and isn't that what cooperative online games are all about?Īnother major gripe is that there's a lot of loading. With such a loss in communication, the result is that you and the other players often wander off alone, circumventing that whole interaction thing that makes online games so fun. You can only communicate with teammates through 'ad-lib'? movements that only encompass a few short phrases that are really no help at all. That's right, no voice chat and no chatting with a USB keyboard. However, here's the hefty downside: there's little to no communication with your teammates. If you loved it before, you'll probably love it here. Yet despite these differences, Resident Evil: Outbreak is essentially the same as previous incarnations: your ultimate goal is still survival, which is achieved by shooting zombies and solving puzzles while overcoming the often-awful camera angles. Another staggering difference is that Resident Evil: Outbreak is divided into five different scenarios that are pretty independent of each other ' meaning, there's no longer a cohesive story. Your adventure is completely independent from one another, and there's really no pressure to work together. However, just because you're stuck in the same boat doesn't mean you have to work together. There are still plenty of zombies that are achin' to gnaw at your neck, but now instead of going at it alone, you're working with several other characters - controlled by either the computer or other players if you take it online - to complete the scenarios.
Fret not Resident Evil fans, Resident Evil: Outbreak is essentially the same game you know and love minus a few changes.
