Mid-December, they can't be serious, maybe Capcom is counting on Christmas to drive the sales up, but those who got the game on launch will be screwed.

blitz06234954d ago

Even a patch has to be announced to be free which it is supposed to be in the first place

crxss4953d ago

i'm liking the new camera option, december though... seems so long away

calibann4953d ago

A *free* update!? How generous of them to fix their game for free.

AznGaara4954d ago

If this was for PC it'd be up ASAP but thats the problem with dealing with Xbox and Ps3's online system. A patch has to go through multiple "phases" within Microsoft and Sony, like play testing etc. which usually takes time, in order to finally be approved for download.

Skate-AK4953d ago

It only takes 2 weeks to certify a patch. Not a month and a half.

GrahamGolden4953d ago

pc sells crap and thats why consoles will always be the priority for devs...u can buy the best pc in the world made by nasa it wont change that so stop crying and do like every pc nerds do...wait last for your crappy port thank you...meanwhile u can go play what is meant to be played on pc's...fps hack paradise,f2p mmo's and blizzards latest craps MoP and diablo 3.

Very mature

AznGaara4953d ago

@GrahamGolden... cool story except I play my Xbox and Ps3 more than my PC.

I'm merely stating facts. There isn't that much of a barrier that developers have to go through on PC that they do on consoles. On top of developers doing internal testing at their end (lets say that takes 2 weeks) they have to wait for Microsoft and Sony to do testing on their system (taking another two weeks = a month already).

"A free update is coming to Resident Evil 6."

So much crap, is wrong with that sentence. I don't know where to start. It's a goddamn UPDATE, of course it's going to be free. So what, are we supposed to be grateful that they decided to fix the crap they didn't in the first place? Though who knows. Maybe next gen, they start charging for the updates too so little kiddies can buy updates with their mommies' money and rub it into the faces of other kiddies.

First Kid: "My game is less broke than your game, na-ha-hahaha!"

Second Kid: "Mommy, buy me an update patch, please! My guy keeps falling through the floor and Timmy's mom bought him the patch, it's only $19.99...please mom, pleaseeeeee!"

2v14953d ago

the system is broken you sir need speak more

showtimefolks4953d ago (Edited 4953d ago )

ok maybe i am missing something but when did a company charge us for an Update? all the updates are free so capcom can stop beating their chests

buy it used sell it on ebay capcom needs to loose on this one let's make a point so the next game they make they will make sure to release a quality product. RE fanboys are hardcore but admit the fact this game could and should have been much much better. stop kissing capcom's ass they stopped caring when this gen began and they realize that dlc is a good thing even when done wrong like lock it on disk

kparks4953d ago

beat it on vet and pro the game sucks but i beat every game i buy tho....have not played it in over a week!! nobody will be playing it by the time the patch comes out

FREE update.

lmao arent all updates/patches free?

guitarded774954d ago

That was my exact thought... then I was like "Well, it is Capcom".

vork774954d ago

so was they going to charge us for a update then think "naw lets make it free" lol

mafiahajeri4954d ago

Lool that would be the day when devs charged for patches xD

Eyeco4954d ago

LOOL could you imagine the thought of a dev like Bethesda charging for patches ? the funny thing is I can see this happening in the future, when you consider this generations surge of on disc DLC and Online Pass's where only a couple steps above that low.

brish4954d ago

"lmao arent all updates/patches free?"
- DoomeDx

Capcom already charges people for DLC that is on the disc. I wouldn't be surprised if capcom wanted to charge people for patches.

vork774954d ago

and if you dont patch it you cant play it lol

JAM_brz4954d ago

ROFL

don´t be too exicted yet, they can change their mind and charge us. It´s Capcom, don´t you forget!

3GenGames4953d ago

` (Under the ~) is not an apostrophe ('). The apostrophe is next to the return key, or enter. Off topic, but I'm just trying to help dude.

JAM_brz4953d ago

@3GenGmes

Thanks man, I'm brazilian, and if you don't haven't said that, I'll never know...

ps: now with '... lol

CalvinKlein4954d ago (Edited 4954d ago )

with capcom it helps to clarify and re-affirm someones beleifs that they are actually giving something for free.

maybe it is an on-disk update that they were gonna sell as DLC.

Awesome_Gamer4953d ago

They had to confirm it's a free update, you can't be sure anymore with Crapcom.

Oh….wow, RE6 huh….urm, cool, just what we always wanted.

1Victor482d ago

EW
NOOOOOOOOOO
In what mind make sense to do this with the worse game on the series 🤦🏿

DivineHand125482d ago

I loved Resident Evil 4 back in the day and enjoyed Resident Evil 5 even though I had to do co-op to beat the final boss. Shiva was just too dumb.

Resident Evil 6 on the other hand, was so bad that I stopped playing after an hour in the game. That was before I even played any high-quality single-player games outside of Mass Effect, Portal, and Skyrim. I can't imagine playing RE6 now.

Chances are their next remake will be 5.

Profchaos482d ago

I just don't get why it's already on the platforms via BC unless it's a remake which would piss everyone off as fans are hoping for either the original game or code veronica to get the remake treatment

CrimsonWing69482d ago

Isn’t it already backwards compatible?
