WTF is going on with the preorder Samurai Edge hand guns and deluxe version Samurai Edge???

[BigV419]

why is Leon getting Chris's prorder Samurai Edge gun? Wouldn't Claire be the one to more then likely have it as she is Chis's sister much like she had Chis's S.T.A.R.S. knive in the origanal RE2. lore wise this would make way more sense, then Leon haveing it. So, i guess the reasoning is Claire is a female so she has to have the other female "Jill's" gun? *face palm* and then you have Wesker's Samurai Edge too, what's the point in haveing it if you get the prorder too? also, both Jills and Wesker's Samurai Edge looks damn near identical just diffrent names, and i get that Claire will have one Samurai Edge and Leon will have other one too but it makes Chis's prorder Samurai Edge Usless if you have both Wekser's and Chis's for Leon. and why is Claire being nurfed with a crappy Smith & Wesson six shooter in the base game, the ammo capacity is lower, the reload is longer, and the recoil is way heavier, this is inharent in all six shooter revolvers. seemly the only way to have a better performing hand gun with more capacity, faster reload, less recoil for claire now is to be lucky enough to get the preorder Samurai Edge otherwise your screwed and still stuck haveing to buy the better gun though microtransactions, pay to win? also, where is Claire's Browning HP hand gun from the origanal RE2? so the police car/tanker scene is no longer present and she no longer get's that gun then? ok, i just wish at least there was more variations between the diffrent Samurai Edge guns. i get that Chris's is diffrent, but again Jill and Wesker's are pertty much the same model with diffrent names, seem a little lazy, would be nice to see the full Kendo's Albert W. System Unit attachment like the silancer, mussle brake/rail extention, and light addons much like in RE7 on Wesker's Samurai Edge. i donno something diffrent to set them apart tho, becuase Jills is actually supposed to look just like Chris's anyways, just hope Wesker's Samurai Edge is at least a .45 caliber if anything.

edit:i found video footage that shows Claire with the Browing HP in the RE2 remake, and it has a lazer site fixed to it too, might be an upgeade? i hope the Samurai Edge hand guns get their own upgades too

five*

This is no ordinary revolver, it is much worse :\

So its PEEPEE gun then? Oh ♥♥♥♥♥

I think Clairs hand gun has a random head shot (critical) chance. I’ve seen a single shot drop a zombie with a head shot.

So Kendo actually made a batch of Samurai Edges for the whole S.T.A.R.S. team. They were customized, but seemingly not really tailored to any special person.

This. I'm pretty sure Barry's Edge (which we all know is the best) is so heavily modified because Barry is supposed to have done much of the work himself...he is a gun nut after all.

Because Chris left it at the station and Leon finds it?

Plus its a game stop looking for immersion in a fantasy setting..

The prototypes the main team recieved were all slightly different because they were prototypes, each person who got one got to pick things they wanted out of their gun, and the best overall version ended up being the standard model. Barry likes his guns big so he went for the 40mm caliber (which turns out still wasnt big enough for him, or maybe he just preferred the revolver so he did not use the edge)

As for the appearances, the Wesker model actually stands out the most, it has stainless steel silver on the lower parts of the gun, compared to the ot her edges that were solid black.

As for why Leon gets chris' model and claire gets jill's model, I think it really is just that claire and jill are both girls to be honest.

Lore wise, Chris lost his pistol in the woods outside the RE1 mansion, which is why he does not have agun until he finds one on a deceased stars member inside. Jill still has hers in re3 so it does not really make sense for Claire to have that one either, it is purely just to have the guns in the game.
I kinda wish they were unlockables instead of being dlc stuff but whatever.
