I began modding the story mode of RE5 a while back but other things have kept me busy lately but i'll get back to it soon. I began modding the enemies to make story mode harder but even putting in tough enemies with insane amounts of health and making changes that should make it hard, it just doesn't do it still. I mean, first time using the story mode mod i'm still working on, you'd think this is tough but after you've done it once then it becomes easy because you know who will be where and when you know that it's just too easy since most of the enemies move slow and are no real threat.
I hope RE6, if they make one, I hope it goes back to the roots but makes use of things like Directx 10. I doubt Dx11 will be used for a year or 2 in games. Dx10 could easily help make RE a horror/survival game because of the shaders and such it can utilize. Capcom would need to go very slim on ammo and make weapons very limited. I'd like to see like i've seen in a few games before. I'm referring to the weapons being visible on the character and have it be like real life. Your character should be able to have a holster for one pistol and hold one weapon on their back with a type of holster and one melee weapon and that be it.
I am not saying they should limit what weapons you can get, just limit what you can carry and also limit ammo accordingly and most importantly make it so that enemies do not drop ammo ever. They could just put various ammo crates around or better yet, they could do like i've seen in some games before and not really give much of any ammo ever but allow enemies to drop their weapons when they die and you can choose to pick it up, exchange with a weapon you are carrying or keep the one you have and keep going. If you knew you didn't have virtually an unlimited supply of ammo like RE5 offers, then you'd be more careful.
Also with what Dx10 can do with shaders, they could make it really spooky, creepy and add a true horror setting to it and the survival aspect as well. The ideas as to what could make RE a big hit again can go on for a while but unfortunately we only get to talk about it and Capcom gets to decide what will be. I'll say this though and I can speak for several people I know, if Capcom doesn't make some great changes with RE6, the RE series may spiral downhill until it's gone because even us loyal to the series will tolerate this sort of game like RE5 for only so long before we're like wanting to download and try it before buying it and then if it's like RE5 we'd decline on buying it and there goes money lost for Capcom.
