dwarf Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 Out late in 08 I don't know about any other PS3 owners around here but for me Resistance is looking very promising. Now I've never played Gears, but I liked Resistance: FoM, and even though I thought the campaign could have been improved upon, I liked a lot of stuff found within the game. The new trailers are quality also and according to the developers the online has vastly been improved with more people being able to play. Their focus this time is splitting teams into separate squads and splitting objectives between them, which sounds interesting. Its gonna be awesome. (Killzone looks slightly better but oh well)
LegoMan1031 Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 I'm looking forward to this. Seems to be a marked improvement over the first (graphics etc). Will it fit in with my obsessive gears of war 2 gaming (i can see the future, lol) i don't know but i have got my pre-order for this in anyway, £29.99 on gameplay!
dwarf Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 Did anyone here play this online much? I have seen a brief clip of online but can anyone confirm how good/bad it is? I imagine it being very good, local mult is very fun.

Domstercool Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Resistance 1 was pretty good online, very fast and frantic.
dwarf Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 Yeah I meant FoM sorry. I think it may be a good FPS because you don't just die instantly like in Unreal, you get a chance to settle in and gun people which is cool.
flameboy Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Yeah I meant FoM sorry.I think it may be a good FPS because you don't just die instantly like in Unreal, you get a chance to settle in and gun people which is cool. Yeah I only recently picked up the game and played some smaller online matches to learn the ropes and got to grips with the pace and such like pretty easily. Can't wait for this. Almost finished Resistance FoM and love it.
Sheikah Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 This is genuinely one of the very few FPS games I have any interest in. The first game was fantastic online, with a lobby and connecting system better than any other FPS online I've played.
flameboy Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I'm still playing through the 1st game. Up to Somerset...not sure how much further I have to go. I do find it a bit of a slog in a way. I think mechanics wise it is brilliant think it looks good to. But for me so far there have been a lack of great, drawn out set pieces. there have been a couple, but nothing the kind of the grand scale I perhaps want.

But then that's true with a lot of FPS too.
Aimless Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 This is genuinely one of the very few FPS games I have any interest in. The first game was fantastic online, with a lobby and connecting system better than any other FPS online I've played. Were I in the Beta I might be able to tell you that the online system has much improved, now featuring a Halo-style party system so that you can stick with a group of up to 30 people. But alas...
dwarf Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 I've borrowed this to play through online and it is actually very fun. I agree about FoM set pieces though, would be nice to see more. Thing is, I'm starting to get cravings for Killzone 2. Hopefully by then I'll have an HD TV, a headset and maybe a better net connection. Reason why? The guns look meaty and from the videos it seems like the guns have a lot of weight to them. Firing a gun has never looked so impressive.

But alas... It's such a shame no one from the beta can tell me this.
flameboy Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Online is far, far better than the campaign. But then that's true with a lot of FPS too. You see I've always been a single player man first then online...I have enjoyed the online on this tho
Choze Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 It's such a shame no one from the beta can tell me this. Should we tell you?

Choze Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 The story Trailer is stunning Teh beta pointed to alot of good things. Graphics will be stunning. Liked the cool parallax mapping they were using in places like pebble on the ground. Looks CGish. Very epic. 1st game is nothing in comparison.

Chris the great Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 im playing the first now, and have to say, its just average, though it leaves fairly high hopes for number 2. the e3 trailer actualy got me excited, had an air of cloverfield to it.
Choze Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Do you mean the one on PSN? if so yeah tis awesome... Yeah the timeline one. Its so cool. One of the best game trailers imo. The ingame graphics are a nice improvement. Alot more normal/parallax mapping and higher res textures. Plus its more epic.

dwarf Posted September 22, 2008 Author Posted September 22, 2008 I thought the first was really good. Just borrowing it off a friend, the campaign was longer than I thought, maybe didn't have enough variety or bosses, but it was still challenging. Online is quality too, so I think Resistance 2 tournies are in order. Made better by everyone having headsets too.
Choze Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Well looks like we have a new best looking game. copy pasted from neogaf First ever look at Co-op: Resistance 2 'Co-Op Switch' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21593 Resistance 2 'Co-Op Lift' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21594 Singleplayer: Resistance 2 'Goliath' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21582 Resistance 2 'Bunker Battle' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21584 Resistance 2 'Firefight' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21589 Resistance 2 'Orick' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21585 Resistance 2 'Drone' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21588 Resistance 2 'Firefight' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21589 Multiplayer: Resistance 2 'Defend Beacon' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21591 Resistance 2 'Victory' gameplay HD - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21592
