dwarf Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 Nah haven't really played Cod4. You probably need to know the intricacies of the game to understand it. Maybe you know some of this stuff but hey: You noticed how I was blowing you up a lot? 4mm on the carbine, you get one if you pick up the large ammo crate after someone dies, they only appear 1/5 of the time. Grenade - If you look at the radar you can see when someone is rounding a corner, so I lob one at the floor so that it detonates when the person runs over. Magnum trap: just lay the floor with loads of magnum bullets and press R2 when someone runs over them. Then there's making sure you shoot someone in the head, which means it doesn't take a full clip. You can easily kill 2 people with the carbine with 1 clip without aiming at the head, you just have to concentrate the bullets. That's part of the Resistance gameplay. There's tonnes of other tricks I use but can't think of them off the top of my head.
dwarf Posted March 27, 2009 Author Posted March 27, 2009 Yeah that's quite a tasty patch. I've tried the 3 maps, one is awesome and the other two are decent. The update was good in itself because meltdown mode seems pretty cool, I haven't tried the superhuman co-op however. Basically it's lengthening the games lifespan. May have to get one of the skins but not too sure.
Ryan Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I might play this on and off for the trophies, doubt I'll buy any new maps.
flameboy Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I would consider playing this online but prefer Killzone tbh so going back would be hard although last time I couldn't play Killzone when I kept getting disconnected I played some Resistance 2 and did really well...
dwarf Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 I like both equally - Resistance is sort of.... Harder? Online with Killzone it seems like anyone can kill anyone whereas in Resistance if someone is better they will always kill you.
MATtheHAT Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I bought the map pack for this but still not played them yet. Personally I prefer this to Killzone, even though I suck.
dwarf Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 ^ I was impressed and disappointed with the map pack at the same time - There's one really good map that is hectic/tense and fun. Has lots of places to explore, many nooks and crannies plus varied levels (outpost). The other 2 are seriously MEH. Pitstop is just ridiculously small even though it is intended for 10 players - you have no chance to prove any skills because there is a constant cross-fire. The other one is OK but just not very exciting at all. Anyway I can tell why most people prefer Killzone to this, it's slicker, looks better, slightly easier to get into etc. With this though you can't rival a good kill streak - you feel Godlike at times.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 So I started playing this at around half 2 today and im not impressed at all. I adored the first game and loved the PSP version but this just seems really bland with very little story. I really miss the wifey from the other two games who narrated the story. Im playing it on hard so I can unlock the super hard difficulty and so far it hasn't been a challenge at all. I still have a fair bit to do as ive just killed the spinner queen so im hoping it picks up...

Online is where it's at, as for the campaign, it's fast paced action and done decently, but I don't really care for FPS single player frankly.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 All done! The game really seemed to drag on towards the end and I still haven't a clue what the story was about. I did think the end section after the last boss was pretty cool, shame the ending was awful. Im abit reluctant to try the online section of the game, I dont have a headset for coop mode and with the game being out so long I will no doubt get tanned in competitive games.
dwarf Posted September 19, 2009 Author Posted September 19, 2009 Just have fun with the 60 player stuff man.
Hero-of-Time Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 I was gonna give the game a go on Superhuman to get the trophy but it turns out all I needed to do was delete the update, put the difficulty on Superhuman and then load up the last check point. Sweet
