Could someone put the new videos online for those of us who won't have a PS3 until next week ?

I don't believe there's that much to get. At one point it was "commonplace" for boys to find Carrie Fisher attractive. Jaffe said he liked Indiana Jones when he was growing up and Star Wars came about around the same time period (and from the same director), so it would have been common for him to find her attractive when he was younger.

patsu said:Heh heh... ran into Click again; this time playing against him in Team DM. But I have been careful in avoiding the man in-game. So I only got killed by him once (Phew !). I'm trying to improve my ratio you know.
did he leave the gaf clan? i think he said he was going to (or considering it at least).
This is your enemy, the enemy clan member, a despicable and vile creature that will sleep with your mom AND your gf (picture shown is not actual member of an enemy clan, just a visual representation in the form of a panda, a vile and despicable creature in its own right):
It's time to lock and load!!!
RAWR!!!

List of people who clearly posted their PSN tag in this thread (for US version of Resistance):
NeoGAF name: - PSN tag: - Time Zone:
kaching - kaching (NeoGAF US Clan-leader, PM your details)
Clan roster: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p62Ro_nUUSfscF9g032W-Aw
For all the Noobs
TO JOIN:
1) LOGIN to Resistance MP online at least one time.
2) LEAVE any clan you are in right now.
3) PM kaching on NEOGAF to get added to the clan roster.
4) WAIT a couple days for him to get back to you.
5) In the meantime if you want to play with the clan, send one of the gaffers a buddy invite (please tell him you are from gaf) so he can get you invited to the party. ^_^
Standard meet up times (for whenever you have the opportunity):
Tuesdays 6pm PST
Saturdays 6pm PST
Sundays 6pm PST
(Monday Jan 29th: Times adjusted slightly in favor of the ESTeemed)
[NEW] CLAN PAGE!!!
Recently updated with news, including the new ban policy, please visit and read.
http://vjarmy.com/clangaf/
The login is "gaf", and the password is a five-letter word starting with "w" that is frequently used within the clan. (If you can't figure it out, PM Remy.)
If anyone wants rights to help contribute, please drop Remy a PM about that as well.
Suggestions suggest(!) that creating parties and going into ranked games together would be the preferred thing to do for the meet ups. So no longer do the first one to get online create a room but instead invite everyone to a party. This however makes it very important that you're all a part of the NeoGAF clan (pm kaching with details, make sure you've logged on to Resistance online at least once before) or simply have all folks listed above on your friend list. Again, the first one to get online should start a party and invite the others as they come online.
Also, it has come to my attention that over 20 people have started to show up for these meetups and that means one party is not enough. If that is the case then one of you simply need to create a second party. If you're the party leader (of either) then posting your details in this thread would be helpful.
The Wedge tactic explained:
The "flying wedge" is the term given to our tendency to mob together in a violent swarm and shoot the everliving hell out of anyone who dares get near us. It leads to multiple assists per kill which leads to a 20-60% increase in points. 16 points for a kill is far better than 10!
It does not, despite its name, resemble a true flying wedge - although generally whoever is at the front of the pack will get gunned down while those behind break through and destroy the opposition. So maybe it's not completely inaccurate.
Also people, it would be a big plus if everyone invested in a headset. For headset details and recommendations, follow this link. Good group play is helped by using your headset to report in changes that occur in the heat of battle. Enemy groups, Snipers, Node status and so forth.
A great addition was made to http://www.myresistance.net on Monday Feb 5th in the form of leaderboards viewable straight from the site. It's time to get famous or die trying.

Hey all-
Insomniac Games and Sony Computer Entertainment are happy to announce that we will be instituting a new ban policy for Resistance: Fall of Man online gameplay, effective immediately. Players may report cheaters using lag devices or using exploits to leave the intended playable area. Make a report by sending a private message to the MyResistance.Net "cheating" account (username: cheating). Cheating and the use of in-game exploits is not allowed in any game type, including custom and private games.
To enforce this policy we have in-game moderators documenting players who are involved in using, discovering, or sharing exploits with others. These moderators have the ability to join and observe any game or user in ranked, custom, or private games without the knowledge of the players in those games.
Initial bans for first-time offenders will be 24 hours. Bans will grow in length with each successive rules-violation, and attempts to circumvent a ban are grounds for an extension of it.
If you have questions, please feel free to post them in this thread.
Thanks!

Great games tonight, I actually won 3 free for all games when I broke away from the clan tonight. 2 of them were back to back which was surprising since I've never won 1 before. Playing with the clan really does make you better. If it wasn't for the game against that cheap pokemon clan I would have a 1.0 Kill/death instead I'm sitting at .99

I want to join the fun. Just got my ps3 yesterday and my PSN ID is angelcurio.
I just loaded Resistance on my ps3 and cant seem to get online with it, any kind of help would be greatly apreciated.

Just on resistance. I load the game, go into multiplayer, then on the screen where it is suppossed to show the servers, only the resistance star logo is seen on the back like loading the screen, but it never loads, then shows up a message that says that there was an error and that the servers list cant be loaded.Bad_Boy said:
I cant try it again right now, since i downloaded the motorstorm demo and i will need to hit my brother with a bassevall bat to make him stop playing it.

The difference in Resistance is the smarter you play, the NOTICIBLY better you perform in the single player mode and there's always a smart way to approach each of the scenarios, when I finished superhuman and looked back at the way I approached a particular level before in normal or hard, I would never tackle it that way again. and you are rarely out of ammo, I'm not saying it's easy at all, it's not, hard and especially superhuman are quite difficult but never cheap. What I find is not having enemies with a regenerating shield is a total blessing because that can suck the ammo right out of you.
It really bugs me that enemies in Resistance are mostly bullet sponges with, so far, the shotgun being the only weapon culling any sort of reaction out of them when I shoot. There is just a very lacking feel of power behind the weaponry and return fire will continue endlessly no matter how many shots are dumped into their brain. Taking on the giant chimera reminds me of the lame Rocket trigens from Far Cry.
Gears of War suffers similarly, but the cover system helps to alleviate the 'spam and strafe' simplicity of Resistance bouts.
Started on Hard mode, but after an hour or so I dropped down to normal. It's still a solid challenge, but I'm at a loss for feeling out any sort of strategy in this game. :/
If not for the excellent multiplayer, I'd feel guilty giving the game(based on the campaign) anything higher than a 7/10. Far from Insomniac's finest hour, but I'm only halfway through and losing interest with each passing level.

After trying once again to get online on resistance, this is the exact error i get:
"Error en la conexion de red. Desconectandose de la red."
In english, it is "Error in the network connection. Login out from the net" or something like that.
I really want to play online, so any kind of help will be greatly apreciated.

Resistance SP can be exploited very easily, which is why people will find the MP experience much more enjoyable. The AI is pretty good, but it does have its share of issues. I'm sure all of this will be cleared up in the sequel though. I'm sure Insomniac was aware of these problems, but being a launch title, they had no choice but to release it without fine tuning it heavily.
Angelcurio: Run the network test in the XMB.
Edit: After googling your problem, it seems it might be a server-side problem. :\
"I did find some ports listed that PSN uses so one could try forwarding those on the router. PSN uses TCP: 80, 443, 5223 UDP: 3478, 3479 -Online Gaming uses UDP: 3658."

I ran the test before posting and everything was ok. I can get online on the playstation store, download demos, the online ranking on GT:HD works, but when i try to get online with resistance is impossible.
How do i forward those ports on the router?
Are you using the wireless feature on the 60GB PS3? If so, try using the supplied ethernet cable. I had a similar problem with my PS3, I could do anything except get into Resistance matches. Even after going though the trouble of changing all the router settings, I couldn't get it to work, so I decided that the wireless is garbage and switched over to wired.

Am a noob when it comes down to network settings, so i dont really know how can i acces my router. Must i do it via hyper terminal?
Ok, i saw that i can acces my router via firefox by writing the ip adress, so what must i do now?
Core407 said:
"real deal," eh. I'm not really sure what that means....
we have "real fun," if that counts.
We ussually play more team based stuff, more than against each other. But, we typically have at least a few matches of a custom free-for-all.
I'm not yet sure how long I'll be on tonight. But if I'm on, send me a message and I'll ask that you get invited to the party.
