Forums - Sony - IGN hands-on Preview of Resistance 2!

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/871/871976p1.html

There seems to be some originality in the multiplayer.  The weapons were thought to be good, I mean, this IS Insomniac.  Also, the bit about microobjectives for small groups within the larger multiplayer game sounds pretty crazy, I can see that getting pretty frantic.  They said even in this early build, things look noticeably better and the controls are solid.  Also, you get awarded for EACH bullet you put in an enemy :D  Maybe this will reduce the pain when I do all the work damaging someone only to have the kill taken at the last second......I hate that! lol. 

Thoughts?

Oh, they are also planning some kind of social networking thing where players can be matched up based on their attributes or similarities. Pretty neat stuff.



Sounds good to me anyway :D

Can't wait to get my hands on this game! Then i'm hoping for another Ratchet and Clank game for 09!

Yeah, me too, I love Ratchet.  Maybe 2010 though, I don't know if even Insomniac can pull a '09 release off.  They make other devs look pretty bad sometimes, lmao.  :)



The idea of having different objectives for different groups seems pretty good. Also nice to hear that there was no lag when they played with 56 players on the server. The only thing I liked about the first Resistance was the online. Glad to read a positive hands-on for the MP of the game.

Yeah i know what you mean NYANKS!

They can pull off one great game a year while others struggle to have one every 2-3 years! They are an amazing company :D



yh this seems good still. i just want to see as many trailers as possible. i dont like the idea of the character models looking slightly better. i am getting a little worried

Why, you mean you expected more than slightly better I suppose?  Or sarcasm?  If you are actually worried, there are months to go, so don't fret yet. <----   lol @ rhyming.   :D

i am a little worried because this game is going to be one of sonys big hitters and if the character models only look a little bit better than they have not surpassed the character models of GeOW that was made ages ago. so to be fare any games that are going to be out in the near future really do need to be able to graphicaly outperform a game that is getting old. especialy when the game is arriving on a system that relies on graphics so much.



@obieslut, I think they're referring to the character models looking better than they're previous build of R2, which the character models were already leaps and bounds above Resistance 1. Also if they're using the same engine from Ratchet and Clank Futures, expect this game to be running at 60 frames per second :D This game is going to run phenomenally ^^



From 0 to KICKASS in .stupid seconds.
