Title note
So far, Capcom's marketing has only referred to this remake as "Resident Evil 3" without the "Nemesis" subtitle. Spartan198 (talk) 21:54, 11 December 2019 (EST)
Glock
Jill's Glock looks more like the full size than the 19.
She's holding it in the statue that comes with the collector's edition of the game[1]. I'm pretty sure it's a 19. Spartan198 (talk) 06:44, 12 December 2019 (EST)
Here's a higher-res image of Jill's character model[2]. Definitely a 19, though I was wrong on which generation. But I see that's been corrected already. Spartan198 (talk) 10:54, 12 December 2019 (EST)
![[2]](https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/residentevil/images/4/42/Jill_Full_R3make.png/revision/latest?cb=20191210163135){kind=link}
I am so glad they are again using real weapons like the original unlike RE6. Though why replace Jill's iconic Samurai Edge is beyond me. They kept Leon's gun the same in the remake and the Hi Power. Excalibur01 (talk) 19:52, 12 December 2019 (EST)
- Could be because Jill is on suspension and had to turn in her samurai edge and the glock is her personal weapon.Kornflakes89 (talk) 16:43, 14 January 2020 (EST)
- The Samurai Edge has become something of an "Excalibur" (lol) to RE fans. It wouldn't surprise me if one or more versions of it are DLC weapons like they were in RE2. Spartan198 (talk) 07:25, 13 December 2019 (EST)
- I've always wanted an 92 ever since Die Hard Excalibur01 (talk) 22:46, 13 December 2019 (EST)
Also, how much you wanna bet they kept the factory sights on it even though no real shooter would ever keep them on Excalibur01 (talk) 19:52, 12 December 2019 (EST)
- Keep in mind that stringent gun control keeps most Japanese from ever becoming "real shooters." Spartan198 (talk) 07:25, 13 December 2019 (EST)
- You'd be surprised how knowledgeable some gun geeks are in Japan. The Airsoft community there is pretty hardcore Excalibur01 (talk) 22:45, 13 December 2019 (EST)
I was watching someone's reaction to the new gameplay trailer and I noticed something weird at 2:31 in the video. I think Jill's Glock had a suppressor on it as she ran from Nemesis. You can see it at the above timestamp as she rounds a corner. At first, I thought it was the shotgun barrel but I paused and played that section over and over (I'm on my mobile at work.) and I swear it's a suppressor. Can anyone confirm? --Bad Boy (talk) 20:48, 27 February 2020 (EST)
- I saw it as well, but it goes by so fast and the background is so dark that I can't get a decent shot of it. Spartan198 (talk) 20:57, 27 February 2020 (EST)
I just saw parts of the demo and it looks like the base Glock is the correct 15 rounds. Unlike Leon's VP70 that started out with a stupid 12 rounds. Excalibur01 (talk) 21:07, 18 March 2020 (EDT)
I am laughing at the C-More red dot sight you can add to your Glock and period correct. It's not being attached through some invisible rail. Excalibur01 (talk) 21:25, 19 March 2020 (EDT)
M933 possible in 1998
I mean, one could assemble one considering you just add a shorter barrel to an M4's flat top. The poster actually shows the rifle with what looks like an Aimpoint Excalibur01 (talk) 23:59, 11 December 2019 (EST)
Since this is still a remake and taking place in the late 90s, quad rails were not a thing yet, so it's hard to imagine them having it on an M4 Excalibur01 (talk) 00:07, 12 December 2019 (EST)
According to an M4 carbine progression timeline chart I found on PEO Soldier or something years back, KAC first introduced the original RIS (later replaced mostly by the improved RAS) handguard in 97. I don't recall exactly when the M933 was introduced as a factory setup, but 11.5" barrels had been around since the 60s and flat top uppers were nothing new when the original game was made in 98. Spartan198 (talk) 06:39, 12 December 2019 (EST)
This is practically the same when i was wondering that about the 3rd Gen Glock 17 when editing the RE Outbreak page, as far as i know, they were still yet to be produced, the SIGPROSP2009 was definetily anachronistic for the time period the game is set in (1998) versus the year it was made in (1999) i think. Still, i really like how Carlos' Colt is set up, notice how he has a rear sight in conjunction with his Comp M2, most games when mounting an optic either the rear sight is down or is completely removed so props to that, when the optic is damaged and goes off, you still have a reference point of aim.--Death Shadow20 (talk) 10:41, 12 December 2019 (EST)
- Special Forces guys were the first ones to do that. They basically took the carrying handle that's removable from their M4s, hack saw the handle part and leave the rear sight so they can cowitness a rear sight with their red dots Excalibur01 (talk) 00:16, 5 January 2020 (EST)
Jill having a 2nd Gen Glock or a 3rd gen would both make sense since 3rd gens were introduced in 1998. Since the game firmly takes place in 1998 like the original. We can surmise since Umbrella is the mega corporation that the 90s warned us about, it would be safe to assume they'd armed their private army with the most advanced gear they can get. Though oddly in the poster and in the original, the rifles used by the Umbrella troops had red dots on them. The one screen shot we have of the rifle placed down doesn't look like it has one on it. Excalibur01 (talk) 19:48, 12 December 2019 (EST)
- Considering Jill is loading a flush fit mag in her Glock in one shot and has an extended mag in it in another, it's safe to assume RE2's weapon mod system carries over and the red dot sight is a mod that can be found somewhere in the game world. Spartan198 (talk) 07:16, 13 December 2019 (EST)
- In fact, I'd bet my last dollar she'll find parts to mod it into a full auto like the G18. Spartan198 (talk) 07:28, 13 December 2019 (EST)
I'm really hoping for an easy mode like in the original where you start off with all the best weapons to just have fun with the game. Excalibur01 (talk) 19:48, 12 December 2019 (EST)
Benelli M3 with M4 stock
There's a screenshot of the game rolling around with an M3 that I can only assume was modeled after the M3 made by airsoft company CYMA. [1]

- Appreciate that, thank you. Spartan198 (talk) 06:59, 13 December 2019 (EST)
Wanna bet they will only use the pump action feature and not the semi auto feature? Excalibur01 (talk) 22:29, 15 January 2020 (EST)
Possible 870
So, I was watching the new trailer yesterday and I noticed Jill using what appeared to be a Remington 870 or it could be possibly be the Benelli with wood furniture. You can see it in the trailer at :48 seconds in. I tried to take a screenshot but I'm having trouble uploading it but I managed to find this instead. [1]
![[1]](https://cdn3.dualshockers.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/RE3_Jill_ShotGun.jpg){kind=link}
- I already have the 870 listed on the page, but thanks for bringing that shot of Jill with it to my attention. I'll try to upload it. Spartan198 (talk) 07:19, 16 January 2020 (EST)
- It's unusual, but not completely unheard of.
Spartan198 (talk) 18:05, 16 January 2020 (EST)
- You mean sling mount? It may be incorrect, but the default stock is clearly textured as if it were made of wood as you can see wood grain on it. But I've pointed out the goof nonetheless. Spartan198 (talk) 00:05, 21 March 2020 (EDT)
Nemmy's rocket launcher
A Nintendo Super Scope? That's hilarious. I guess the Duck Hunt jokes were more suitable than I thought. Any opposition to uploading a reference image for it? IIRC, we've done it before for Nerf guns used as the basis for a prop weapon. Spartan198 (talk) 07:36, 16 January 2020 (EST)
Federal ammunition?
Played through the demo and noticed a familiar sight on the assault rifle ammo. Possibly a temporary texture? I wonder... 1 Jimona (talk) 19:28, 19 March 2020 (EST)
Kinda weird they let you pick up assault rifle ammo but not use the assault rifle in the demo Excalibur01 (talk) 21:56, 19 March 2020 (EDT)
You can, you just have to die and you get an option to switch to assist mode. You start with 4 extra item slots and an assault rifle with spare ammo. However, you can create magnum ammo, which is labeled as ".44 AE." Jimona (talk) 22:18, 19 March 2020 (EST)
I'll have to boot up the demo and get some pics of the 933, then. How many times do you need to die? Spartan198 (talk) 12:21, 20 March 2020 (EDT)
Just one. There's a button on the bottom right that should give you the ability to change the difficulty.
Easy mode returns
Some people wanna call me a pussy about it, but I had fun playing the original in the assist mode which starts you off with the best weapons because RE3 is more of an action game vs RE2 Excalibur01 (talk) 21:55, 19 March 2020 (EDT)
There's no shame in playing easy modes instead of the super meta play in my book. That being said, it annoys me the AR has a lower rate of fire compared to the real thing. But still fun to play with nonetheless.--Death Shadow20 (talk) 07:55, 20 March 2020 (EDT)
It's confirmed that Easy Mode returns? I won't bust anyone's balls for playing Easy Mode. It's a good way of "training" oneself for the normal difficulty. I just wonder if the remake will have similar perks for playing on the normal difficulty, like the original did with the extra weapons and enhanced ammo. And I also hope I can still get the game when it releases, since a mandatory state-wide "stay at home" order went into effect at midnight with all non-essential businesses closing down. Spartan198 (talk) 12:20, 20 March 2020 (EDT)
- Someone data-mined the demo, a lot of the stuff that wasn't in the demo was scrubbed but there was some stuff left in, according to it, there's four difficulties, assisted, standard, hard and an unlockable super hard mode. Playing on assisted starts you with the Colt 933. As far as extra weapons, I haven't read anything about that but I'm pretty sure that one article I read said that Nemesis will drop special ammo when you down him. But yeah, hope you can get the game when it releases.Kornflakes89 (talk) 02:02, 21 March 2020 (EDT)

Street date broken
An outlet in France broke street date due to everyone being trapped at home.
