OH. MY. ****ING. GOD.
This must be somehow related to the PS3 freezing, BUT FOR THE THIRD TIME, MY RESISTANCE SAVED DATA HAS BEEN CORRUPTED. **** this shit. I'm not even going to bother TRYING for the black-ops shit now, as every time I do my data just gets ****ing deleted before I can finish and I have to start over from SCRATCH.
Surely this has happened to someone else?

I think it's your system dude. We played a good 7-8 matches (and they're still going so jump on if you like) and zero issues. The carbine has been balanced great. I'm getting a tremendous amount of quick headshot kills, way more than before.
I was playing in ranked and haven't hit an assault round yet. Meltdown like 5 games in a row. I'd love some CTF and certainly breach mixed in. Also the autobalancing helps out when we're dominating the other side
Assault is the shit. Been in four very fun, very competitive matches in a row, the last one was omgsoclose for the last 5 minutes guys were freaking out on the headsets :lol One of those matches where even though we lost we were laughing about the awesomeness of it.
I do notice the game lagging a fair bit at the end of matches, but no other problems. My brother said he was d/ced in the middle of a match but nothing to me yet in a few hours of playing tonight.

you mean episode 301? its awesome by the wayAeon712 said:I played a quick game with M3 earlier, we were hoping for Assault but got Meltdown instead
Assault is amazing. It's really, really different from both Breach and Meltdown. I'm doing up a strategy post now for the clanblog - should be up by Thursday evening at the latest (if I don't finish it right now).
Post-results lag needs fixing ASAP.
The new map/health bar for nodes is great and was much needed.
New spectator mode is much appreciated, although I wish the "roaming cam" had some noclip - but I can understand why it doesn't.
We need to do single weapon conversion more often. Those sniper rounds were fun.

.Good thing you left nades in, I wouldn't have stood a chance. I didn't even fire one sniper shot that second game

Hahaha, I suck at this soooo bad, but I love it, it's good fun... hopefully no one minds my suckitude too much :lol
Oh, I also forgot:
To everyone involved in that epic Meltdown match, I salute you.
To everyone who wasn't: We were playing Nottingham Meltdown 32, which is the 5 nodes pattern. It was the second round, and we had already rocked them a bit the first round. But that's no excuse for what happened next:
At exactly two minutes into the round - I checked the game clock, it read 23:00 - all nodes were either in our possession or being converted to ours. It was the quickest Meltdown lock-down we've ever done.
We did the usual "lob all grenades into the base" thing that we do after a lockdown on Nottingham, but something curious happened maybe 30 seconds after that...
They stopped coming out.
FEAR THE WEDGE.

Hey, I had to get off early tonight to work out... then I chilled with friends and went out to eat. I had like eight party invites when I got back :lol
I'm kinda like Patsu... I just leave my PS3 on all the time... if I don't join the party/message back, that means my PS3 is just sitting there on, but I'll try to be better about at least closing out of Resistance.

Don't worry about it; just realize that when I'm hosting the party, I sweep the clan list every round and invite anyone who the menu still shows that I can "Invite To Party". I apologize about the deluge.
Also, Assault post is up. If you didn't get a chance to play tonight - and even if you did - please read this.

Please see the regular announcement about clan night if you don't already know the login or password.
Also, if anyone wants to add their thoughts on strategy, post them here and I'll add them to the post.

I wish I could have been a part of that - sounds like you guys had a blast.
As for the update:
1. love the new node energy bars on the map - extremely helpful
2. carbine headshots - awesome,.
3. I walked away from several LAARKings. Nice!
4. Spectator mode is cool. I really, really liked the free roam mode.
5. Assualt rocks my socks. We need more practice to get the strategy down pat, but the game we played today was a blast.
6. WTH is with the lag after a game is completed? I thought my net connection was messed, but everyone is seeing it.
More impressions on Saturday since I didn't play much today.

ggs today jer and unregistered, thanks for playing with me. it kinda sucks playing without other clan members now heh
That's definitely part of today's update. I played last night so I made a point of checking Players Met before logging into RFOM today and updating. No players from last night's games were on the PM list. After updating and playing a few rounds, PM list was working.shagg_187 said:Pinch me if im late but...
"Players Met" has been fixed for Resistance...
When was that fixed? I Just noticed it (Unless it was part of the current update)

Damn you Sony Asia Where is my goddamn patch, in fact where is my FIRST patch....I just cant wait for international servers when everyone is being forced to update at the same time.

it's just that Sony Asia which runs the Asian side of the Sony network is not releasing us the patch!

Playing Resistance online is a real blast. I really could jump in and play the game without any issues even though it is the first console fps game i play, and the first one i have played online. Also, i havent finish a single level of the single player campaign, i just got my ps3 a couple of days ago and since gaf was playing online, i decided to join the party without having played the game before handAeon712 said:Fun games tonight, Angelcurio you should really get a mic. Playing with Gaf is awesome but hearing us all talk is a blast
Are we game on Friday to try out the new modes or waiting till the normal Saturday? Ross wouldn't tell what time the modes were going up
I still havent got a BT headset, but i am still searching for one who has both good price and good quality.
I'm unsure how far up the shotgun is on my priority list after the update. This is how it used to be:
1. Bullseye
2. Shotgun
3. Carbine
with the bullseye and shotgun pretty much "neck in neck." But now I may like the Carbine better overall. I'd also like to throw the arc charger in that list somewhere (since I have only ~4 kills with it).
I think use the carbine more and just put it in the slot before the shotgun, so I can quick tap to the shotgun when I need to.
Also, I was trying to start using the sniper rifle a bit more during the games with dave and unregistered last night. The missing reload sound when using the scope was really bugging me.

Wow. I'm not really sure why I typed all that. I only intended to write the first sentence.

Hi everybody. I'm finally back from my 2 week vacation. Some would call it a ban.
Tanod + LBP/Home Excitement + Miyamoto keynote disappointment-ton thread = IQ - 150
Even though I'm back on the boards, don't expect to see me on clan nights for a while until after the 1st. Grad school is kicking my ass and I have officially made the request (1UP article got me thinking) to my wife to have her hide my controller until I get through some school stuff. I did "get permission" to turn my PS3 on today to get all the updates. But tomorrow, the controller goes back into hiding. Not gonna get a chance to check to see how the updates/new modes play yet so I'm really disappointed because it sounds so awesome. *grumble*
See you on the boards.

PS: MotorStorm is waaaaaaaay fun but God of War 2 is awesome-er so MS got bumped. How awesome is MotorStorm, you ask? So awesome!
I feel you... I'm getting my ass handed to me this quarter but I hope to be on during the weekend maybe for 1 out of the 2 days to try some of the new game modes. I got a lab to write up so I'm not sure how it will all turn out but I'll try to finish it up to get some playing time in.tanod said:Hi everybody. I'm finally back from my 2 week vacation.

Man I need to get back to playing this game again I want to try out the new game modes and I want to play with some of the new clan members. Are the new maps out yet? I was caught up with a lot of school work and I was also caught up playing crackdown and winning eleven on the 360. I'll probably get on tomorrow night and play with you guys hopefully I wont be too rusty.

Ok, so I played some Resistance campaign. I'm at the beginning of the York part, in this 'base'.
Things I like: the guns feel pretty good, the body reaction of chimera to fire, the animation/physics(?) of the chimera feel like they have weight, clean crisp look, the two guns I have used 2 guns so far (bullseye and the regular gun) feel pretty good, difficulty feels pretty good at medium but don't know yet if I chose the right one (can you 'up' the difficulty mid-campaign?), the game feels well-developed and put more thought into it than the standard shooter (for example I liked that there is an explination for the health system).
At the moment most of the 'nitpicks' I have with the game are either due to me being used to the 360 controller and sometimes having difficulty with the controller for example when trying to alt-fire while crouched. like t

As the resistance servers are region locked, maybe we should create a Euro GAF Clan?

Couldnt have put it better mate, im pissed off no new patch heck no old patch come on sony japan sort this shite out.
I bought a headset yesterday, so hopefully I can start playing with you guys soon.
Could someone please clarify a few things for me relating to headset usage? I didn't have a lot of time to play around with it yesterday, and also almost no users in random ranked matches have headsets, so I couldn't really test things out extensively. I assigned voice chat to left on the dpad, so obviously when I'm playing a game, I just press left whenever I want to talk. However, does this extend to the pregame lobby as well? And also, if I understand correctly, if I join a squad, I just talk without pressing anything?

Just wanted to say welcome to the Euro-GAFfers.
You better practice up good for those world-wide servers in May. BALLLLLLIN!!!
I'd like to hear some more first impressions too. Enjoy the game.
Did they change something with the patch!?
Actually, if you want to talk to people outside your party, you do have to press to talk in the game lobby. That is also the only opportunity to trash talk the other team.
In-game,
Push to talk will only transmit to your teammates in team games.
In Free for all, you always have to press to talk.

I've barely gotten the chance to play so far (the power has been gone for five hours now in Carlton, Melbourne. Just came back up again). Still on my first singleplayer level and I had one custom team deathmatch online game. I have one larger problem though. Whenever I try to send an buddy invite i receive the Error 80710017 so I have no friends on my list so far.
