Resi 4 Ada video (seperate ways)

[Retro_Link]

A video of Ada's seperate ways has been released;
The video explains part of the reason for her being there in the first place, aswell as some of her FMV cutscenes and some of her gameplay;

The video contains some spoilers; but alot of people have played this game anyway (and for people who own the GC version, it's a great chance to get an insight into Ada's mission);

I think it looks really great!!

I heard that her mission explains why the bell rings and the vilagers dissapear at the start of Leons game...
From the video i'm guessing Ada rings it as a distraction to help LeonThe video also shows off some of Ada's weapons...Being able to use the grapple gun in set areas (as shown in the video) is a really nice feature!
I've also seen some screens (on the Resi 4 website) of her using it in a set place to get onto a village style roof;
probably the roof she decends down from in the 'hidden' cutscene in Leons story
(to help you against the village chief at the very start of chapter 1-3; i think!).
Personally i don't like Ada's bow weapon;
I haven't played much of Mercenaries, does she have this weapon or is it an exclusive?A couple of questions i have;
- As Ada explains;
what do you think her personal reason for being their is?
As she kinda hints at; do you thinks it's to reastablish contact with Leon?Also
- What is the gun Leon is using in the first village cutscene? It seems strange it wasn't the standard handgun, as it should be!
- Also is it just me or has the valley where you fight El Gigante been widened? Or maybe some scafolding has been removed!

There is also a new video showing off the exclusive secret costumes (which are abit rubbish IMO);

Nice Find. Im torn whether to get this on release day as it is out the same day as Fire Emble on the cube. Probably go with FE as I have the cube version of R Evil 4 but I will pick it up eventually.

I get more and more tempted by the ps2 version daily. I think I will get pick it up even though I have exhausted the cube version!

I've preordered the special edition. :D

Ada's Report is now online. :grin:


Report #1
The only reason I've taken on this
mission is to get closer to my own
objective. No matter what happens, I
can't let anyone figure that out.
Of course, hiding in the shadows isn't
my style. I'll have to reveal myself to
him and offer advice once in a while.

Here's what I know so far.
Osmund Saddler's cult is known as Los
Illuminados. They've resurrected some
sort of parasitic organism they call Las
Plagas. That's all my organization knows
for sure, though Saddler's occult
activities seem worthy of investigation.

The Salazar family, castellans for
generations, possess the ability to
control Last Plagas. The organization's
hypothesis is that a unique frequency
of sonic wave sensed only by the
parasites is used to control them.
The same principle used in dog whistles.

This was inferred through the analysis
of a tissue sample we retrieved. The
tissue contained an organ presumably
used for sensing sound waves. I've seen
cult members carrying ceremonial rods
and I wonder if they emit these sounds.
Of course, this is purely theoretical.

The organization needs samples of the
parasite to confirm or disprove these
theories. That is the main objective of
my mission and the only way to prove my
loyalty to the organization. The opening
moves in this chess game have been
played. There's no turning back now.

Report #2
Among all the people involved in this,
Luis Sera has the least entanglements.
He works for no organization, preferring
to move on his own. I'm the one who
told the organization of his importance.
I did it because I like him. His history
betrays an enthusiasm I once shared.

It was a stroke of luck that I happened
to intercept his e-mail for help. It
seems he can't trust the police, so he
sent the e-mail to an old friend from
college. He must have thought his friend
was still alive. At any rate, that's how
I managed to find him.

Apparently, he'd been conducting his own
investigation of the cult while doing
research on Las Plagas. A brilliant
scientist. He's accumulated a pile of
data and pieced it all together. Must be
why Saddler hired him. Too bad Sera's
snooping has aroused his suspicion.

When I told him who I was, he
practically begged to be taken into
custody. He needed protection. He said,
"I have no love for Las Plagas or this
stupid cult. I want out. I just want
peace and quiet again." I ordered him to
bring me a master Plaga specimen -- a
sample -- for evidence.

Looks like he's one of the few people
whom Saddler actually trusts. Tracking
him down and getting my hands on the
sample shouldn't be difficult. I doubt
the cult will take kindly to his escape,
though. I'll have to guide this along if
I want it to go smoothly.

Report #3
Jack Krauser has been the subject of
extensive study and research by the
organization. His skills and personality
have been tested both on and off the
battlefield. If he weren't the best, he
would become a liability that would
jeopardize the rest of us.

My conclusion? He's a great soldier. No
more. No less. As long as he's well
compensated, he shouldn't cause any
problems for us. If he does start to
get restless, I can take care of him.
I've studied his combat style and can
deal with that arm of his if necessary.

Krauser answers directly to Wesker, and
it was Wesker who decided that Krauser
should be sent to spy on the cult. He
also decided to send me along. I wonder
if it wasn't to keep an eye on Krauser.

No doubt Krauser has already fallen to
the temptation of Las Plagas and the
power they represent. This could have
dire consequences for the organization.
On some level, however, this may be a
necessary development, as his role is to
disrupt this farce of a play.

That said, the stage and its players
will ultimately come crashing down in
the end. Bad luck for him, but he'll
play the patsy in the end and take the
fall for all of us. That's why I need
to make sure things keep going exactly
as they are.

Report #4
Leon S. Kennedy... Perhaps the most
essential part of this mission. This
story wouldn't be complete without him
and his formidable survival skills. He
has what it takes to survive against
overwhelming odds. I've seen him do it
before. And he's improved since then.

Practically a genius, he has the smarts and
he knows how to use them. On top of
that, his service as a government agent
has toughened him up. I'll work behind
the scenes to make him think he's the
primary player here, thought it may be
naive of me to think that'll be easy.

Considering the involvement of both
Saddler and Krauser, the possibility
of unforseen problems is there, but I
need him in the supporting role for me
to achieve my goals. I'll do whatever
it takes to keep him in his place and
make all this go smoothly.

Of course, his role didn't exist at all
until a few months ago. Back then, my
role was much simpler, too.
But that was before the President's
daughter was abducted and Leon was
dispatched alone to find her. Talk about
a major script revision.

I don't think I need to worry. Leon's
been through worse and always comes up
smelling like roses. His consistent luck
is part of the reason why I have
absolute and unshakable faith in my
vision of what's in store for him.

Report #5
It wasn't easy, but I'd say the
mission has been a success. Getting my
hands on the sample was my initial
objective after all. But I've sent Wesker a
different present, just as the organization
ordered. Pretending to work with him
was entertaining.

Albert Wesker... I wonder where he's
headed next. Something tells me this
whole affair was just a taste of what
he's got in store. To him, Umbrella
represented power. He used it to hide
behind while he made plans of his own.
And now the umbrella's been folded.

With the sanctuary of their old umbrella
ruined, those in power struggle to erect
a new one. They are aware of their own
crookedness and deceit as they engage in
their personal war of light and
darkness. That's why Wesker will stop at
nothing in opening his new umbrella.

The giant pharmaceutical corporation S
maintains medical and drug facilities
the world over. We know for certain that
Wesker has been in contact with them
following Umbrella's demise. There's no
doubt we'll next hear from him there.
The organization must remain vigilant.

But Wesker's not stupid. He knows
exactly what the organization is
thinking. He and I still have time to
continue our little game of cat and
mouse before the next move is played.
This mission may be over, but the battle
is just beginning.

THANKS for that 'Dante', much appreciated;

Ada is still talking about Luis here right;
It was a stroke of luck that I happened to intercept his e-mail for help.
It seems he can't trust the police, so he sent the e-mail to an old friend from college.
He must have thought his friend was still alive.
At any rate, that's how I managed to find him. Wonder who his friend was!!?
