Resistance 2 revealed in Game Informer

Oh man Fire, that was fun as hell last night. We need to get you, me, Myrrh, and Deathchild in a party - I imagine we could all get a lot done.

Elei WTF. WTF. WTF.

Dude... no XYA love?

Im into nuggets... Forget it Elei, we are so over.

I will make sure not to invite you to Gears parties if you get it.
 
Got it after I voted last night. Pretty great so far, I love setting traps with the magnum. Exploding bullets = love.
 
Just beat SP for the first time. Neat ending. I got myself 500k Exp too.

Dude! I should be mad at you! My friend request toward you has been waiting for like, 3 months now! You're never on to accept it!

But if you get on I would be more than thrilled to fight the chimera with my fellow baby daddy.
 
After finishing the game 2x over now. I must say this was a mediocre campaign.
The high points were incredible and gave so much hope during my play times but man...

There were so few high points and the entire time between high points was bottom of the barrel stuff. There was no decent or do able time between high points, it was just bad. Not to mention the story just went to shit in this game. Where the hell is my narrator chick.

The platforming and omg stay out of the water thing Insomniac tried here is horrid.

Insomniac's theory of "make the bosses bigger and it will automatically make them cool" failed hard. Every boss battle was terrible for me, best of the terrible was the godzilla dude. I have allready quoted that godzilla part as one of the worst FPS experiences i have ever had, and he was still the more impressive of these lame boss fights.

What the F happened to the visual quality of this game? I was told or lied to by Sony that bluray had no limits when it came to gaming... So did they run out of texture room? Do not get me wrong... Like most of my complaining about this game there were high ups and terrible downs.

When i first entered Chicago i almost shit myself it was so beautifull. There are just too many drawn out and long parts were the visuals are shit and it makes me sad. Really takes away from the beautifull parts.

Thanks god the controls are smooth as butter and the gunning is great.(except run... wtf is wrong with me i can not run proper in the game)

Dude i like the game because i am having fun. I love resistance still and i wont let this kill it for me. But man wtf are you thinking Insomniac. F you.

EDIT: I believe i can take back any negative about online Fire
 
Honestly, if you can play through Resistance 2's campaign and end up with a final conclusion of "mediocre" there's not much more to talk about it because I just couldn't disagree more. Yeah it had high and lows, but it's lows weren't really all that bad. There's no point where it ceases to be fun for longer than 30 second intervals that function as breaks in the action, and a lot of the time they're just to lull you into a sense of security only to spring a trap on you. Some of the graphics don't look as good as others, but you can't seriously blame Blu-ray. They are not a dev team like Bungie or Kojima Productions that can focus on a game for 3 years. They produce games yearly and with quality that shames lesser devs who spend twice as long for something not nearly as great.

Fire this was a bad campaign and thats all there is to it bud. This campaign was as good as Dark Sector and nothing more.

I mean what the hell happened to the story? I think Insomniac has taken a step backward in Resistance 2.

The high points are the same exact 3 things over and over.

ONE: large amount of spitter bug things or cocoon dudes are coming at you... Survive.

TWO: Large amount of enemies are making a B-line for you while they completely ignore the 20 or so troops fighting along side you. Most of these large groups consist of 1 or 2 dudes using the beam gun.

THREE: 1, 2 or even 3 robot spider guys are shooting rockets at you while other little nothings annoy you.

I can give you the online is fine for me now and the co-op campaign is a cool idea.

I was not blaming Bluray for the visual issues fire i was being sarcastic. With that, i ment to blame Insomniac for such inconsistancy.

I am too much of a shooter fan to not enjoy the game and the controles are sweet to me. But i can admit the games story is told in a terrible way and the campaign is mediocre.
 
Offline co-op is hard. My brother and I were playing last night and we failed a whole lotta times.

I just read on some forum that it doesn't save Player 2's exp in offline mode. Is that true? If so, that shit needs to get changed.

The co-op is hard, no regen health shield and you must work together. Those facts mixed with the b-line AI is tough.

Its funny the AI is great for the co-op making it very challenging but that same AI tactic is annoying and at times dumb as shit in the campaign.

EDIT: The second players stats are not saved offline. No idea if they plan to change that and also could you run different psn id's and maybe it saves it then? Like the child id's.
 
For offline campaign...

1. They are planning on making you able to log into multiple PSN at once. It's going to require a firmware update from Sony, and may carry over to Warhawk. They wanted to do it for launch but it's a function at the moment not possible cause of PS3's firmware. Insomniac have a LOT of sway though over Sony, and they say they're trying for it.

2. Forget soldier class offline. 1 person = medic. 1 person = special ops. Me and a friend beat a few of them the other night. Soldier class is useless without special ops, and you need a medic.

This offline co-op is pretty cool and is something my local friends who are not into online are loving so far. I think i have said before they love to do terrorist hunt in Rainbow6 but R2 co-op is their new thing lol.

That's good to know. I always thought it was weird you couldn't do it in Warhawk, so hopefully they'll fix it there too.
 
Just finished the campaign, I liked it.

Spoiler:
Poor Nathan turning Chimera, Capelli saying "Forgive me sir, it was an honor." then boom, shoots him.

I accidentally exited out of the credits, was there a post credits scene like in the first game? Or should I not bother re-watching the credits?
 
I didn't see anything, Elei.

I'm currently working on my super human arcade mirror run through. It's hard <_<
 
Got it today and I'm pretty close to the end, such a kickass game, I still need to do the co-op mode and the 60 player multiplayer.
 
Finished single-player yesterday. I thought it was great until the last boss.

Everything in the game killed me tons of times, and then the last boss doesn't hit me once. Lame.

Still a good game, though. I finally started to play online last night. I was having trouble joining games when I would click through the list, but no problems getting into games when I let it pick for me.

I've been wanting to play through the online co-op as well. Hit me up if you want to join me. PSN - JasonIsAwesome
