Tale Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Indeed, it looks very exciting. I just hope they balance out the encounters some more. The original seemed cheap sometimes. However much I love it, it was frustrating to feel that the only way to win a level was by luck or trial and error. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Musopticon? Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Augh, I like it. I know I'm waiting for Gears 2, PS3 must be more than thrilled about their own counterpart. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today.

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 That looks awesome. Plus Killzone 2, the PS3 is starting to stand a chance. "Alright, I've been thinking.

Tale Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 (edited) I refuse to believe several of those shots. There's another one, very much like that, except it features two of those walkers, and planes flying in the background. You will not convince me that those planes are not painted on there. Which causes me to be highly suspect of the rest of the image. Edited February 21, 2008 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Meshugger Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 This game needs a in-game video. As Tale said, those screens look to polished.

Morgoth Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 *looks at screenshots* I see angry faces in heavy gears, I see big guns, big war machines.... so I see nothing new, actually.

Tale Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) W-hat are you saying? I'm saying that if you're going to generalize something, try and generalize it right. Resistance is not the greatest fount of originality, but it's not burdened by the overuse of large, angry enemies with big guns. The descriptors don't match up. Unless you're looking for a game where the enemies are midgets in swimwear. Edited February 22, 2008 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

walkerguy Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Midgets in swimwear! I think it was an excellent idea to have an alien shooter based not in the future* or even modern-day, but in the past. * Star Wars included, despite the whole a "long time ago..." stuff, you've got to concede that its a futuristic franchise Twitter | @Insevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llyranor Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I'm in the beta. 8p co-op is fantastic. It's not like your usual co-op mode, instead implementing various class-based PvP elements to it. Only, instead of fighting another team, you're fighting massive legions of AI. IIRC, there are 6 maps, based on the PvP maps. They're semi-randomized. Each map has a bunch of zones, and every mission you're being sent to different zones, so this should have some good replayability. There are 3 classes. -Soldier - big gun, and a secondary fire summons a shield which allies can hide behind. -Medic - attack beam to absorb enemy hp and refill your secondary fire ammo. Secondary fire is a wide area blast which heals allies but not you. It's a good balance between having to shoot enemies to replenish your secondary fire, and trying to keep your time alive (you can also revive dead allies by going next to them and pressing a button, though anyone can do this). -SpecialOps - Don't know the details, but this is your ammo guy. Keeps allied guns running, and replenishes shields as well, I think It's a good balance. You need your soldiers to actually deal good damage and to absorb shots with the shield, your medics to keep people alive, and your SpecOps to keep the war machine going, pushing forward slowly on and on, as you're advancing your shield. Deploying shield near corpses so someone can get near to revive, fending off attacks from multiple flanks. You really get overwhelmed. Didn't get the party wiped out yet, but there's been some instances where more than half the team was dead. Good fun. (re: Nick, medic feels a lot like the monk in GW in terms of awesomeness/keeping the team alive - only, without GW crap) (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Looks fun. But those explosions are pathetic. "Alright, I've been thinking.

Meshugger Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Multiplayer sounds more thought out than i expected. Triple 'A' i am confirmed?

Llyranor Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Depends what your definition of triple A is. Awesome co-op? Yup yup. There's also a 60player PvP mode, but I don't give a crap. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 No one gives a crap about the explosions. I sure as hell do. Blurry blasts of yellow just won't do. Not when the rest of the game is so damn good looking. At least the playstation is actually getting shooters this time around. "Alright, I've been thinking.

Llyranor Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 More impressions about the other co-op classes that I'm too lazy to compile into paragraphs: Llyranor says: spec ops and soldier are awesome Llyranor says: spec ops is also a sniper Llyranor says: you feel a bit redundant, since you're just shooting and giving ammo Llyranor says: i mean, it feels 'pointless' until you play a soldier and realize how crucial you are Llyranor says: as a soldier, your ammo/shield depletes in SECONDS Llyranor says: you constantly need ammo supplies Llyranor says: yeah, the balance is really well done Nick says: nice, that's perfect Nick says: so we need AT LEAST 3 players Llyranor says: at least Nick says: and non-balanced classes = death Llyranor says: I'm never playing this with less than 8p Llyranor says: you don't need to know the others Nick says: so it's literally PuG GW Nick says: only, not GW Llyranor says: as a medic, i had to constantly shoot at enemies and waste time to replenish my healgun Llyranor says: whereas if i had a competent spec ops, i could focus more on healing Llyranor says: the spec ops is really important Llyranor says: as a soldier, you're a tank soaking up buttloads of damage and dealing it back Nick says: ah, right, specs can charge the healing crap too, I see what you mean Llyranor says: but left on your own for a few seconds, and you're virtually defenseless Llyranor says: and the shield is awesome, building defensive flanks from various positions, creating opening spots for medics to revive, or specs to snipe, blocking doorways, good stuff Llyranor says: i'm really happy with the gameplay Llyranor says: the only real complaint i'd have is that some bosses are just soakboxes Llyranor says: they just stand there while the team surrounds and shoots it Llyranor says: not much challenge Llyranor says: the rest of the game is a good challenge, though (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkreku Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I must say it looks surprisingly good for a straight-on FPS. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41596.html Very varied, cinematic and action-packed. And none of those huge-bodies-with-tiny-heads characters from Gears of War! I'm mildly impressed. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

Llyranor Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I can't honestly say I give a crap at all about the singleplayer. Maybe if the story campaign had co-op... (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
