Standard meet up times (for whenever you have the opportunity):

Saturdays 6pm PST

[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.

For those who missed the details on the 1st UPDATE (aka patch) which released December 21st you can read the details here.

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!
Insomniac Games/Sony Computer Entertainment

Froze for me too, right as I was going "Wait, this is breach? There's only two nodes..."

Crash battle, indeed.

Oh, and some of you will remember I said I was grabbing pics during that team conversion game...

(Yes, I was intersecting with the gun model. I almost got a shot from inside a Chimera, too - which looks really hilarious, actually.)

Team conversion? Oh man, I missed it! Next time I guess.

BTW, if you want some good pics of Chimera, go into a custom game and spectate. Then use the free roam camera. Many times you can just walk right up to the Chimera or Humans and take a long look at the very detailed models.

The Chimera, for example, have the "hole" in the back of their throats. I thought it was cool.

Don't get too excited, it was a custom game. I'm really starting to prefer doing small-sided custom games than dealing with another ****ing person harping on and on about game battle.

And it's very hard to shoot with an SLR *and* control the game quick enough with dual analog. I think I need a partner for those sorts of things.

We missed a few people this weekend probably due to Easter but it was a nice turnout nevertheless and it was great to end on two TDM wins. One more month until the new maps... See you all on Tuesday.

Does anyone know if the docks part of the Grimsby map was inspired at all by the facility map in Goldeneye? It's alot more closed in than alot of the other multiplayer maps in the Resistance.
Everytime I get that "goldeneye start," in the vents, I think about the facility.
I wonder if that's a purposeful nod at Goldeneye.

I've wondered the same thing during games. I think it almost has something to do with that. Maybe a little easter egg for shooter fans. :)

Save one bullet each, don't stop fighting and don't let them take you alive
(okay okay, being chimera is actually pretty cool)
... because some things are worst than death
(like f*cking up in conversion, sitting on the bench while watching the others play)

So I finally bought resistance!

But I'm really bad at it :p.

i think I'll go through the single player before I start online as I've never really played an FPS on a dualshock/sixaxis style controller.

But if anyone wants to play an unranked game with me send me a friend request. My PSN name is alfgard and I'm pretty sure that carried over to resistance.
