50 Facts about the RPD
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- I’ve always said that the real main character of every Resident Evil game was the locations the games take place in. The Raccoon City Police Department building is one of the most iconic locations in the entire Franchise.
So today I thought it would be fun to take yet another trip into the RPD, this time, seeing what we can uncover within its walls. And with that, here are 50 facts about the RPD.

Claire was holding her stomach when approaching the only toilet in the game. I feel you. We've all been there...
She didn't want to shit in front of Sherry though.
If Claire drank a lot of water that day she would have wanted to, pretty bad 😂
LMFAOOOO GOOD ONE
Hahahahaha….. makes me wonder whether or not if the other character was taking a shit or piss when we weren’t playing them and the one we were playing was just holding it? 😂
@@123RADIOactive *playing claire*
Leon: YES THANK GOODNESS!
*pushes past Mr. X running*
Leon: MOVE!
*Slams bathroom door*
Mr X: ....(the audacity of this man)
I thought Jill from the movie was just reloading her 2nd handgun, seems like a reasonable thing to have a backup firearm in case you lose the first one, in the middle of a zombie outbreak lol
She is, I actually had to go re-watch the movie. She first comes in with her duty belt and leg holster. Then she goes to her desk, grabs a shoulder holster with a second pistol.
Please do one on Spencer mansion, if you haven't already
Why does it say no subscribers?
Great idea
I second the Spencer Mansion idea
Bro I see you everywhere, especially on the recapped movie vids
I was just fixing to suggest this myself.
Kai, when you mentioned "Having a dead tiger on display would be highly ilegal" i was like... well wasn't the man doing a whole bunch of ilegal shit anyways? LOL
I mean yeah, but the murder-dermy stuff was all done behind closed doors, so to speak... so the comparison would really only be apt if he had like six dead blonde women-dolls displayed alongside the tiger in a public-facing hallway
yeah, the man was going to stuff the mayor's daughter after killing her
Not just that... he was the chief! 🤣🤣 He could say anything about that and not get arrested
Who, chef irons....yeah pritty much
@@MbareCalo Animal Rights Terrorists in a nutshell
One fact I've told Kai about that could have gone here is a Easter egg in the RE2-3 remake where Chris's desk contains a CD with a piano key layout on it, implying Chris started practicing playing the piano after the mansion incident where he played so poorly, he needed Rebecca to complete the Moonlight Sonata puzzle for him.
One of my favorite classical pieces
But, ... but, ... his hands are made for punching boulders - not playing the piano !
@@jackwilliam4436 unquestionably, but Chris got showed up by a piano twice and he never wants to be stuck like that again XD
@@jackwilliam4436 LMAOO EXACTLYYYY
I wonder why there was a les paul electric guitar near his table...
*Wesker, sitting at his desk, thinking things only that a megalomaniacal psycho would think of*
*hears everyone leave*
*reaches into his desk, pulls out Rebecca's film negative:* Heh heh. Yeah.
*Jill, Chris, Brad, and Barry:* "...Wesker?"
*Wesker, frantically putting it back into his desk:* "WHAT?! What did you see?"
*everyone snickers*
*Wesker:* "...They know too much. I need to get rid of them..."
XD
😆😆😆😆
Chris"what was that Wesker"? Wesker"nothing"
Is that why he lure them to the woods and manor?
@@hipsterwriter could be
For the Resident Evil Apocalypse one, when the camera comes back to Jill, you can now see that she’s wearing a shoulder holster and is loading her 2nd gun. It’s not an error.
while you are correct, thats even weirder that she put on a shoulder holster complete with its own gun between camera pans XD
@@Gojiro7 its a reference lol the movie is filled with references from resident evil and other movies and games lol
My childhood home
Agree also the classic croft manor. 💜
Really feels that way ❤

@ 6:18 it was explained, the director of Re3 said the reason why those doors were boarded up was because there were still alive police officers hiding in the RPD and certain doors were boarded up because most doors leads up to other doors so to prevent zombies and lickers from walking all around the whole RPD the police offices boarded up the main doors, how ever when the zombies got out of hand they had to break the boards down to escape into the roads of racoon city however some police offers were caught and killed by lickers and some zombies, after Jill left and before clair and Leon arrived, a speed runner asked the director of Re3 that exact same question
The RPD main hall theme will be always my favorite theme in any RE.
USB drives have been around since 1996 btw.
Yeah, and in 1998 lot of the manufacture are started to use it, but in umbrella context, i guess it is possible if the pc already have usb port because they need the best technological advancement for their project.
And thanks to the chief connection, the rpd are the first one that can try this.
The RPD is such an iconic location.
what does RPD mean?
@@lolo4403 Racoon Police Department
Most memorable place in the whole franchise, RE 2-3 and even Outbreak❤
6:44 Sam and Nate Drake from Uncharted 4, even their prison uniforms are blue :D
That haunting music when you first walk in, the echo of Leon/Claire's footsteps.
What's funny is I used the "original music" mode for RE2 Remake and it freaked me out so badly that I couldn't play with it on. The space and the sounds used to accentuate it were so perfect in the original game.
I understood the reference.
I know. What a coincidence.
Uncharted four didn’t exist yet, so it would have to be just a coincidence.
true but it might still be a reference. they also disappeared indicating perhaps they made a great escape?
#21
Actually, they've explained it in one interview saying that when Jill was there - there were still survivors and police officers in the RPD who barricaded and unbarricaded doors and windows.
Ah, thank you for this comment. I didn't even know that re3 took place before re2 until Ink Ribbon said it here. But what I was really wondering is WHO removed those wooden boards
@@ChevyboyCaprice_ resident evil 3 takes place before, during and a whole day after resident evil 2. The night Jill becomes unconscious and you play as Carlos, is the same night that Leon and Claire enter the city. As a matter of fact, if you play the original res evil 3 and 2 respectively you'll notice little things that they did to connect them. For example in re3 near the stairwell in the western corridor, there's a window that the nemesis bursts through, in resident evil 2 that same window is boarded up, presumably by a police officer who tried to secure that broken window by the time Leon/Claire get there
@@mynameisinigomontoya8179 ahh, that's what's up! I appreciate this comment, but there's one things that doesn't much sense, is officer Marvin was unconscious in re3, but was conscious dur re2, shouldn't it be the other way around? Where Jill speaks to him, but than he dies by the time Leon and Claire get there
@@ChevyboyCaprice_ so resident evil 3 remake actually shows you how he gets the bite. Brad Vickers from the Stars team is zombified and Marvin hesitates to shoot him when Brad speaks to him with his final bit of humanity left. Then Marvin lowers his gun and brad lunges at him then bites him. Marvin shoves him off and runs inside. At this point he heads inside and then falls unconscious. Later that night Jill finds his body but thinks he's dead because of the severity of the wound. The following night he wakes up and that's when he meets Leon/Claire, already slowly dying and injured.
Hey Kyle, 50 Facts about Tyrants? Most iconic bosses in the series.
💯💯💯💯💯💯 was just thinking that
That would be awesome.
I agree. Definitely need a video dedicated to Tyrants! Especially one about Mr. X!!!
What about some of the Baker family members? Or just a video about the Bakers?
I ALWAYS wondered why Leon's uniform was different.
Because he’s Pure
He's wearing the Winter uniform
Cause he was the protagonist lol
@@Commodore22345 yes
I think it'd only be fitting to do the other most memorable location in the RE series and that being the Spencer Mansion. Love the list videos you do. Keep up the good work.
upvote to this
6:14 "never properly explained"
There's an explanation
*adjusts nerd glasses*
There's some files in RE2 that mention break in.
Excerpt From Operation Report 1.
"1:00PM. The west barricade has been broken through and another exchange ensued. We sheltered the injured in the confiscation room on the first floor temporarily. Twelve more people were injured in the battle.
Recorder: David Ford"
At least... i believe this is the explanation. RE2 was obviously written before RE3, but to think that there's officers in the building at the same time as Claire.
She doesn’t reload twice.. she just making sure her backup is ready to go.
2:30 And the reasons Irons scattered the weapons is because he was paranoid that he might be infected with the T-Virus so he fully lost his mind even though he was crazy and evil beforehand and decided that since he believed he was going to turn or die he'd take everyone in the city with him.
Additional fact:
In the RE2 remake, when you explore Chief Iron's office, among his collection of taxidermied animals, there is also a F***ING DODO!
This implies that either dodo's haven't gone extinct long enough, if at all, before Iron's managed to kill and taxidermy one.
OR (the version i prefer) Chief Irons commissioned the Umbrella corporation to clone him a dodo for him to kill and taxidermy
If I can be boring it is likely that he simply purchased a Dodo that was already taxidermied.
@@daltonbecker4494 also a likely possibility.
It's just that Irons doesn't really seem like the kind of dude who takes the easy way with his hobby.
Hmm that's very interesting. I'll have to look into it!
OR, he just bought one from the store.
@@InkRibbon and the RPD is in dead by daylight
It might be a design flaw or the designers simply forgot, but there isn't any desks or even an office specifically for Bravo team. There's an office and desks for Alpha team but there isn't anything for STARS member Joseph Frost who died in the intro to RE1. I always found that kinda of weird that they weren't even mentioned except for the team picture found on the wall in the OG. Great video once again nonetheless KM! You are indeed a living RE encyclopedia.
It's likely a design flaw Thankfully they corrected it in RE2& 3 remake
Rebecca is Bravo team and she has a desk
@@mynameisharry8739 I think Don mean the whole Bravo team..
@@mynameisharry8739 I should reiterate; only the survivors of the mansion incident have an office/desk area.
@@InkWarrior this is where a thought came in.
We have never seen the S.T.A.R.S office before the mansion incident, so maybe there were more desks and they just moved them away.
Then again there isn't really anymore room for more desks.
The RE2 remake had a nice detail where the desks of deceased members had boxes on them with their stuff in it
Just wanted to say. I’ve been an RE fan literally since the first game came out, and I love your videos. I’ve learned random facts I’ve never known from you.
It is one of, if not the best setting in the entire series, just full of mysteries to be uncovered within a concrete jungle. It's different everytime, so good.
1:15
Coca cola with RE2: OMG, remove that, or we will sue you!!!
Coca Cola with Parasite Eve 2: OMG put vending machines everywhere and also add a can of Coca Cola that restores your MP!!!
Since RE Outbreak is canon. It is possible that the survivors from Outbreak had done the baricade since they were there first before Jill/Carlos
Yea but who undid them?
There were a few other unseen cops still alive in the station at the time so they probably removed them to get to certain areas
From my understanding, Outbreak is not in main canon. Resident Evil from my understanding is that there is main canon which is the lore, and then 2nd canon which only parts of it are canon to the over all lore. My understanding is that Outbreak is 2nd canon.
Yes outbreak where a police car pass by them when they escape that suppose to be Claire and Leon going to the r.p.d before jill
@@Seriona1 that a sequel to outbreak
I love the RPD but I will always love the mansion from resident evil one the most. Can we have 50 facts on the Spencer mansion?
Ink ribbon: the locations are the real main character.
Chris Redfield while punching random environment objects: I'll show you main character!
Been waiting for this! 🥰 Can you do the Spencer mansion, the labs or raccoon city next ❤❤
My favorite location in all of Resident Evil the St. Michael Clock Tower its more of a creepier atmosphere the both the RPD and the Spencer Mansion in my opinion so if possible it would be nice to see a video about that
I love the RPD the most but Spencer Mansion has got to be next :)
You missed another RPD fact, in RE3 you know that window where nemeses breaks and jumps through outside of the dark room just before the stairs leading up to the stars office, when nemesis breaks the window it magically gets replaced and repaired when Leon and clair enters the RPD a day later
That is true. I remembered mentioning this years ago but I guess it is because the producers wasn’t sure if they were making Resident Evil 3. Plus, what happened to Marvin’s body when Nemesis chases Jill in the room she found Marvin. He disappeared
Ohhh yeah! You're right!
My favorite police department in video game history
This could be a thing. Vids about RE mansions, laboratories and about Raccon City.
Keep up with the great job :)
Fact lists on locations is a good idea. Don't forget about the Survivor locations that nobody ever talks about
Personally I like RE Survivor
@@zakazany1945 I've never played the first, but I like where they were going plot-wise (I think it come out between RE3 and RE:CV?). I did play through Dead Aim a few times and honestly I feel like RE4 ripped off a lot from it lol
that scene from apocalypse also jill wears her holder from one of a sudden :D
Would love to know bout racoon city itself. Did umbrella just set up shop and build the city as a cover or did the city existed first? What people were there and how influential did umbrella impacted them before all hell breaks loose.
Another great video! Interestingly, when you keep Marvin alive for Scenario B, there are less zombies in the room accompanying him (3 instead of 5). This is most likely due to Marvin being a "super zombie" of sorts and harder to kill than regular zombies. Also my theory on the dust chute being in the clock tower is to provide a shortcut to bypass the zombies that spawn through the windows after exploring the library, as Claire can also do this as she exits the RPD via Chief Irons' office.
Actually, that just means that Marvin must have killed two zombies before turning.
Ah yes, The "Wow a clearly breakable wooden door that needs a key to get through, lets find the key in God knows somewhere instead of shooting the door knobs" building.
In reality you cannot break a door knob by shooting at it. A Bullet is mostly lead and will just get squashed if it hits stronger metal. It's much easier to just break its frame or its hinges. crowbar, axe, hammer, and screwdiver are more usefull for force open a door than a gun. 🙂👍
@@anggi8699 yeah i kinda figured that aswell but will a heavier bullet like a shotgun shells penetrate? I mean leon has one.
@@katomts i did watch some videos about breaching technique done by army, and if my memory correct they did use shotgun and aim for the door frame rather than the knob. Btw this is what happen when lead bullet meet steel lock. Spoiler alert: epic fail. 🤣
czcams.com/video/Kb5As8k5L_M/video.html
@@katomts
A shotgun doesn't shoot a single bullet (normally, such ammo exists tho), so it would be even less effective to shoot at the knob
@@anggi8699 not exactly, if you had a shotgun, you could shoot the hinges resulting in the door coming off
"The universal serial bus (USB 1.0) was developed by a consortium made up of Compaq, DEC, Intel, IBM, Microsoft, NEC and Nortel and introduced in 1996."
I think that makes sense because it is a state institution and the more likely to have access to new tenochlogy than the private person. especially when it comes to military / security etc.
Yeah I heard somewhere that government tech is usually five years ahead of what hits the civilian market.
Also Umbrella sponsored them so state-of-art tech shouldn't be surprsing.
You're right but Kai mentions that USB _storage drives_ weren't invented until 1999. But like Damian said, Umbrella assuredly got them the latest-and-greatest tech before anyone else.
6:15 honestly the boards didn’t even need to be there as those doors were locked by the computer in the lobby anyway
The raccoon swat is actually referred to as the spf or select police force. They were a replacement of stars and bear striking resemblance to Leon's uniform which begs the question was Leon an SPF rookie?
SPF have body armor over black uniform like Kevin from Outbreak. OG Leon just wanted to make a good first impression by reporting in full uniform. Or donning it in response to all the 'riots' in the remake.
@@RichterBelmont2235 I dunno, they look pretty similar. Also the novelisation alludes to irons recruiting new men to replace stars, somewhere in the region of 12 (same number of stars members). You'll see from the opening fmv of resi 3 that on the main street battle there isn't more than 10 spf behind the barricade and Leon was late for work which is why he donned his uniform straight away.
@@Natedawg38 How could Leon be selected for a Selected Police Force if it was his first day on the job?
@@RichterBelmont2235 ah but was it his first day on the job or just his first day in raccoon city? Besides, the resident evil universe doesn't seem too hung up on lack of experience to gain admission to an elite unit if the person seems to have clear aptitudes in training and high intelligence e.g. Rebecca Chambers - she was 18.
@@Natedawg38 Go find me proof where it is explicitly stated Leon has been inducted into the SPF then.
Everyone, the note and even Leon himself said he was a rookie cop. not a highly decorated police equivalent of SWAT.
I rarely click on videos about lore and hidden information in video games, but I must admit, your videos are quite entertaining. I got high not knowing what to watch, and I'm 4 videos into your RE stuff. You're doing something right friend!
RPD is also playable in Reverse and Dead by Daylight.
And Umbrella Chronicles
@@Denkersis
We don't talk about it
@@steelbear2063 Come on, it's a cool game to play from time to time, and I say that even though it butchered one of my favorite RE's
Should absolutely do more 50 facts about places. I think there’s a lot of opportunities with the incredibly rich environments that capcom makes for the games they produce and develop.
I wouldn’t mind a video on Raccoon City in general. Maybe use a lot of the locations from RE3 1999!
Yassssss I love them RPD!!!!! THANK YOU
The Spencer Mansion!!!
Great video. - I wonder if any inspiration for the the police station location was taken from the film Assault on Precinct 13 (1976) - some music in that film seems similar to music in the original Resident Evil 2 - perhaps those two prisoners in the Outbrake version are a reference to that - although probably not.
This "xx facts about xx" template is really awesome--I hope you do some more of these for non-character entities in the RE universe! :D
We all know the double reload is the best way to take out zombies.
Imagine having to go all the way to the tram to use the bathroom! Also it's just one so you know it would be always crowded and in use!! 😆
The Umbrella labs might serve as a good 50 facts video; y’know, since there’s so many of them at this point.
The RPD station is one of the most iconic locations in Resident Evil history.
It's so iconic that they made it a area in Dead By Daylight
@@pirobrony8101 Nice 🙂
The use of shutters inside the RPD in RE2make to close off entryways is a reference to RE1.5 which also had them. Also, I think the cop who gets ripped in half when dragged under the shutter is another reference to 1.5 and how zombies could be cut in half in that game when a shutter was closed on them.
Absolutely awesome video thanks Ink Ribbon you rock !😎👍
can you make 50 facts about carlos
I always thoughtJill arrived after Leon/Claire, the window nemesis smashes through is intact for Leon/Claires run
All the sounds of re2.... so much nostalgia...
The Spencer mansion is very iconic place you could do...
without a doubt this is one of the most iconic location in the RE universe, great stuff man ! keep em coming 😊
Nice list! I just realized that Brian Irons taste in art (like the painting of the woman) really reflects his true nature as a predator! :O
If you want some list ideas, maybe do one on Alexia Ashford (or the Ashfords in general), Helena Harper, Jessica Sherawat and Alex Wesker! :D
OBVS!!! next best would be the spencer mansion!!
Well the part of the "Doors being boarded up " well if you look at the files in the OG Resident Evil 2 & 3 it's said that there were police officers in the RPD Hours before During & after Jill got there they were trying to find a way to escape my guess is that found their way to the main hall & try leaving through the front/side gate that's why you see so many Zombie Cops when you try to make it to the side gate as Leon/Claire
I think its time for a 50 facts about Raccoon City
Thank you so much and I did mention saying this to you @Ink Ribbon one of your livestream and is such a memorable place in the whole franchise , RE 2-3 from Original and REmakes and Outbreak and Operation RC thank you for the history in 1996-1998 😎🎮🎵🗝🔪🔫🚓🧟♂️
How about a video about Raccoon City? The whole town. ^^
I love watching contents like this 🥰
8:08 - USB was available when the game takes place but they wouldn't have had access to it. I noticed this immediately when the game came out. I always kind explained it as they live in a parallel dimension or something where USB was invented a little earlier lol
Beautiful made video kai thank and on point!!!
hi very good video! ifound a lot of stuff i didn't knew, i wonder if you can make a video about the park in re3 the secret cabin the dead bodies that are supposed to be supervisors killed by nikolay the graveyard used to bury people who got infected by t virus only to "wake" 48 hours later like marvin from the rpd and turn into zombies... the pond in the park where umbrella threw the defective gemma hunters and they started to breed there in the pond. the river around the park you see it if you choose to jump in the nemesis decisions... and more lore that i couldn't remember...
Great video! I’d love one about the Spencer Mansion!
So Capcom decided to use a dog picture on the RE2 Remake to make sure that Chris can still have a chance hahaha.
6:15 okay, I asked that in my last comment, but I'm glad you mentioned it. Someone had to have removed the boards, but it's unfortunate they don't say who.
This location is so iconic to me that I'm able to draw a 95% accurate map of it from memory
I love the RPD!
Great video. Never played the original 2 and 3 REs, maybe one day I’ll give then a shot
Og 3 is definitely better
Deveria jogar. Podem ter envelhecido um pouco mal, ainda mais pela jogabilidade estilo "tanque", mas são jogos excelentes.
@@Aeneiden Jill's my favorite character!
@@renangeek47 Cara, pior q adoro o tanque! Tem seu charme.
@@Helder- tbm ñ vejo problema algum, zerei o 2 original de novo no emulador de celular jogando no touch kkk
Eu me refiro a geração mais nova de jogadores a galera vai estranhar pra krl.
In RE2, depending on which way you enter the library in Scenario 2 either the shutters in the Club key hall to the basement will fail or the shutters in the 1st Floor west hallway will fail. :D
12:13 "Remember to drink water."
Me feeling thirsty after eating beef jerky while watching the video.🙄😆
This was really enjoyable
You HAVE to do the mansion from the first RE next.
Please do one for Raccoon City! :)
7:33 I believe in OG RE2, one of the dog's nametags (above the cage doors) in the kennel reads "JoJo", the other one reads "Rockey". Dunno what the third one reads, you're gonna have to ask the eldritch vaseline prerendered background gods for that one.
7:58 probably in RE universe, some technologies were developed earlier but not produced for public.
More example is in RE6 where Leon and even Ada has unusual "phones"
The RPD is like that clubhouse we remember fondly from our childhoods. Only this one is filled with monsters and fancy keys.
Yeah that mystery door had me trying for days to figure out where it went until I finally realized I knew where it went. Lol no internet at that time
Dude at 1:45 if You play the RE3 Nemesis and you enter this room, you'll see a poster of a young Kobe Bryant dunking near the door.
Imagine, RCPD got wiped out by slow moving zombies. Even Chief Irons hide guns and made confusion, we can still see they made a barricade and on defense
I had no idea re 3 took place before re 2. Totally missed that all this time
The amount of research and editing that goes into these videos is insane.
I love how the wall in bathroom in RE 3 explodes and In RE 2 The wall in the bathroom is already missing.
Also the boxes Jill destroys become wood to board windows in remake2
@@brandibadgett2587 hell yeah, same thing with Marvin. In RE 2 he's already been bitten and in 3 he isn't lol.
the lack of toilets in RE2 was a reoccurring joke within the Resident Evil newsgroups back in the day
Chloroform is used in taxidermy as well. Either would be a possible use given the context
Keep these up! They're my favorite!
About the point 34. If you see the map,the west waiting room an the Licker's hallway, they are not in the same position with the outside wall.
The RPD is def one of the most iconic buildings in any video game
Also in resident evil 5 with Chris and sheba there's a part where Chris runs up in the building and you can see the name MS-13 scrawled along the wall.
Dude I can't believe you took my advice when I commented about you making 50 facts about raccoon city that's great man I'm so stoked that actually worked for the first time. Awesome man! I just recently had another perfect idea for another video you can do thats perhaps the biggest one for you yet dude, you should definitely do 50 facts about umbrella itself. You can certainly cover all of there facilities, laboratories, and on map locations including all of the B.O.Ws that were created by umbrella themselves and even the mercenaries that were hired by umbrella that went to raccoon city in resident evil 3 (Carlos Oliveira for example) to help rescue survivors. I really think that's the perfect choice for you next man! U should definitely do it!👍👍
oh wow i learned so much! particularly the last one about there being no toilets in the RPD! loved this. Thanks!!
Glad you included the Ex-files, which were also a reference to X-Files!
Fact 51: we all left our hearts in the RPD
The police station being boarded up is the main reason why I never understood how Resident Evil 3 happened before Resident Evil 2.
Well if you read the files from RE2 and 3 there was police officers in the RPD before & after Jill got there so its very likely those unseen police officers were the ones that took the bords down
