It's early in the game, just after the boat level.
Some really good looking environments there, shows of some great lighting. Saw an interesting weapon too.

One of the unfortunate things about this game is that there are quite a few to climb.

I have pretty much covered all I want to so that everyone can get a fresh experience like I did. I will let you know that I am on my third play through. That is the single player. It's like Resistance 1 in that respect, it's just plain fun to run through the game on higher difficulties and realize the way you played the last time isn't going to cut it this time. Best part of all that? Weapon wheel. The return of which has made the guns I choose completely change any scenario / encounter I am happen to be on. No longer are you handed the gun needed to complete an area (Resistance 2.)
As an improvement over Resistance 1 you now find yourself ever more immersed in the characters and story thanks to all the events being tied to a more meaningful fight. It really is humanity's last push to save all that it has left. Every now and then you run into a part where you think it's going to be a cut scene but instead you realize "oh shit I have to actually fight THAT?"
If you didn't like the series a whole you should really give this a chance. If you loved the first and hated the second YOU MUST play this. If you liked the first two then you know what to do
I won't comment on the new weapons and changed secondary modes of fire as that is one of the more entertaining factors of the new game.patsu said:
Yeah, for me it's just that in games with heavy emphasis on the atmosphere, immersion is a huge part of the fun for me. If my character feels like a human being or like a mutant is important. You need to see me how I'm playing such a game, I'm not rushing through it just shooting shit but I really try to immerse myself in the word step by step. Whatever, maybe it's part of the story. Capelli got infected and grew very very long arms so that he could hold the weapon 3 meters away from him and push it to the right corner of the screen. Something like that. Actually he should be able to shoot around cornes while still standing behind them if he holds the weapon like that. ;D
To be serious, I'd really love to hear an explanation from IG why they did this and how it makes any sense. I thought the KZ3 solution (while it had it's own problems) was pretty much perfect and it didn't hide the beautiful wepaon models. Also I don't think it's hard to offer at least three different crosshairs to choose from, is it?

Yes, you will level up slower in the full game, 60 is the lvl cap and from there you can start from the beginning again and choose another upgrades/perks (keeping your old ones). And yes, there will be plenty more, you can find the full list 2-3 pages back in this same thread.

Yes, it's horrible. I don't know what's worse, that a professional did that abomination, or that the team found it acceptable.

Exactly my thoughts. How you can have such a HORRIBLE looking element in a game that so heavily hinges on its visual impact/immersion is beyond me and basically a slap in the face to the player. It's ONE animation! And sure, you could use that exact point to rebut me, but it's seriously crap.

I went 21-7 and 21-10 in my final two games in the beta. And in my final one I got the last kill by M203'ing a guy against a wall. Very satisfying way to send the beta out. Can't wait for the full game! I'd honestly peg R3's multiplayer above the CoD games.

Thanks guys, appreciate the info
Friday can't come soon enough.
For me, it looks great as it stands. Forgot that the RFOM style narration makes a comeback. Kinda miss Ms. Rachel Parker though. What happened to her ?
Bumped into someone who's playing R3 yesterday evening. He was in the chatroom. He played it on hard, going through superhuman now. Told me AI is great, they can do a variety of moves, including shoot at friendly AI. Looks like I need to play the game to experience it myself. 8^)
BobTheFork, you went to Insomniac to play R3 ?

Capelli's voice is so dif, lol.
Not a spoiler, but I'd really freak out if Hale suddenly showed up in the SP somewhere. NO ONE RESPOND TO THIS SAYING IF HE DOES OR DOES NOT K THNX
It still looks pretty good. The art and setting design is really unique. Go back and play R1. This looks much better. Res could be worse, I guess.
edit: WTF, the ladder is fine. I half expected this awkward teleportation/camera shaking mess. It's just simple and quick. What looks so bad? Hand over hand and you see the side of the ladder.

LOL. I don't know what is Molotov Cocktail. ^_^
Out with it... what does the grenade do ?
Now that I recount our conversation more carefully, I am not sure if the weapon is in MP. But we were talking about MP when he brought up the grenade. I assume it is also an MP weapon but did not double check with him.
EDIT: I looked up wiki. Molotov Cocktail sounds like Airfuel grenade though.

Well it does replace the air fuel grenade.You can see it in the E3 trailer at the 51 second mark.patsu said:

Just finished my playthrough of R1. The pacing is so weird in that game. Like in Somerset and Bristol and then in the tunnels...the levels just kinda end. The end of the level where you get to the top of the tower outside London is a single stalker battle and then it ends. Bizarre.
Loudninja said:Stop using message boards as hype indicators.
I think I agree with the others. The days of being compared to gears is over. I think the equivalent now is Dead Island.
Amongst friends at least, Dead Island seems to have more hype behind it. Even though Sony are throwing a lot of weight behind Resistance. And the previews have been favourable.
edit: I still think meta-critic counts for something though, and R3 will easily get higher reviews; it does have the advantage of being a first rate console exclusive. If it hits 90 though, it could go big. Still, I'm betting it'll be around the same as R1/R2 though.

Extremely disappointing, yes. The Campaign certainly was, but the co-op was fantastic. Competitive is YMMV.
Despite all that, I'm still looking forward to playing this one. The only thing that killed some of the hype for me at launch was the 8p co-op wouldn't be back.
But, it looks like that's Overstrike, so we'll see.

Wow, is this true? That was my favorite part of R2. So much fun and addictive. Is there anything equivalent?Boombloxer said:
