Resistance 2, your thoughts?

[alucard_101]

I just think that Resistance 2 looks sweet, especially because of the new weapon, the 'splicer' the weapon shoots sawblades, and no, that's not the only reason you should want Resistance 2, the online is going to be massive, unless you compare it to M.A.G, but thats focusing on multiplayer, for Resistance it's just for something to do when you finish the story, which itself needs to be played at least twice. anyway, what are your opinions, if you think this game sucks, you need serious mental help, anyone who loves this game, sweet, I just want to hear your opinions, so yeah, go for it

Your tolerant of other opinions.

Good game. I feel like its what if Call of Duty 2 had a baby with Halo 3 (which is awesome!)

Eh, I find it hard to be hyped up for games these days (except for LittleBigPlanet I have a nerdgasam everytime I see gameplay footage/trailers for that) but I'm definately going to be getting Resistance 2 when it comes out.

8 player Co-op FTW.

Multiplayer looks a little bit too much like Call of Duty 4, but that's not a bad thing at all. It'll be fun. I just hope I can walk more than a few feet before I get killed by the large numbers of enemies in multiplayer. That happens to me a lot in Battlefield: Bad Company...

Looks alright....

well at least I'll have a reason to use my PS3 some time soon, such a lack of good exclusives is killing me and MGS4 didn't last long. But resistance really was good with that gritty WWII feel but with an alien sci-fi twist. R2 is really beinging to look like the epic game that the PS3 has been waiting for, for so... so, long

It's Insomniac and they have yet to drink the fail sauce like FR and SK so R2 should kick major ass.

Even though I don't have a PS3, I must say that the Resistance series looks quite good.

But honestly, I really think that M.A.G will flop. People say that it's the bomb due to the 256 players (I think that's the number anyway). All we've seen is a (pretty average looking) CG trailer, that really doesn't sell it. Plus, think of lag in games with around 16 people. If you're not American then you'd know. Now think of that with 256 people. I don't see how in the world a dedicated server could take this, MUCH less a peer-to-peer connection. Not everyone in the game is going to have the best broadband money can buy.

Resistance 2 is one of the few games I'm looking forward to this year. A sequel was destined to happen, and if the gameplay is as good as the first one then I'll be very happy. Multiplayer was interesting but it didn't hook me as much as say, CoD4. Co-op gameplay though.. now that might be worth a look.

Tell me, how many people are online playing in WOW at any one time? A fair few more than 256?

Yes, they have said they are looking to MMOs as inspiriation on how to decrease lag to nil.

How much information per player action do you think a shooter needs compared to an mmo?

 

[LivemeLifefree]

It looks boring just like the first one, and yes I played the first one.

RESISTANCE 2 FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are in specific two things that gives me that opinion:
1. the 8 player online co-op which is a different campaign than the Single Player one, so don't play through the same story two times.
2. there are rumors that there will be a FULLY AUTOMATIC SNIPER!! if that isn't awesome then nothing is! (except from the Skyblaster weapon in Freelancer ofcourse)

 

[Thadawg]

I agree with LivemeLifefree.. Looks just like the first one, and I thought that was one on the worst FPS's i'v played.. So cant say i'm really looking forward to it. At all.

But I am looking forward to pummeling some Hellgast! That looks cool!

Welcome to Counter-Strike.
Also for the MMOFPS/RPG I'd say they'd need about the same, maybe the FPS one more because more action is going across the screen.

Well I don't think that a ping of 500 on an average day is something to look up to. Would you like that half second of lag in a shooter?
