Anyway, welcome back. Even with the Warhawk beta, our clan still has excellent turnouts on game nights. Four more days before May ends, can't wait for the new maps.

Think snowboarding on giant sand dunes. I will post links to my photos later onde I have gone through them.

Hey guys,

I had just about the worst Friday night playing Resistance ever. First, right when I log in, I play one game and then everybody but four people leave. Then I play a few matches and I'm sucking. Then I quit out and see that over half of my friends list was playing War Hawk. Went back to Resistance and played with Patsu. I was swearing a lot and doing even more terribly. Sorry Patsu. Worst night ever. Sorry for any derogatory "comment" on my PSN. I was having a REALLY bad night. :(

Damn guys, if something about my connection was f'ing things up that badly you should have told me. ;(

I'll try to figure it out and hopefully fix it before the next time I'm on - I don't have any d/c issues at all in any other online console or PC game I play. My first instinct is to blame my router ($39, it was literally the cheapest wireless router I could find at the time) which has given me bad connections and other home LAN issues since I got it, but honestly I have no idea what it could be. Anyway, I'll poke around and get a new router like I've been planning on doing anyway.


I wasted 10 minutes looking for the perfect image to go with this post, but I couldn't find a jpeg of Milhouse yelling "No wait, it's ok! My mom bought me deodorant!" at the simpsons as Homer drove off. :lol

:lol You were playing fine. I heard you yawned/soft "arghed" more than swore (Actually I don't remember you swearing, must be inside your head :D) . You also topped one of the TDMs: 28 vs 10+ (I came in second with 1 fewer kill).

May be because I am used to playing alone in ranked games, regular clan games are funnier because of all the thrash talk (, echoes and ear piercing rings).

That last round of Meltdown was a close one!

I noticed that if you do get Papa, it's a great spawn point for a couple of guys (or even just one guy, as we did this last round) to head over to Delta (the node at the enemy base) if you take the tunnels. You can pop on Rage while in these tunnels, because when they see you on the map it looks like you are off the map...and then turn Rage off as you are underneath their base. They'll never expect you.

Oh, and when you spawn at Papa before heading to that base, pick up either the Arc Charger or the Rocket Launcher at Papa.

And when you come out of the tunnels and into their base, pick up the shotgun by the stairs. So it's a trivial knockout of the node with the rocket launcher or arc charger, and with the shotty plus Rage you should be able to take out all defenders after they notice you.

vertigo I'm folding right now, but feel free to add me to your buddy list. Kaching is the head honcho for the clan so you're gonna have to msg him to be a part of the clan, but if you're own when I am then I can ask for you to be part of the party.

Must be talking about Manchester, thats the reason why me and Sutdawg are always Papa Squad. Funny thing is on Saturday when everyone bailed before I got on, we played that map and me and Agent X were at Papa I got the Arc Charger and we decided to use the Tunnels to go to their base while Vernia defended. I had this huge smile on my face as I came up with the Arc Charger ready to fire just to see Patsu already took the Node :(.

Oh Yea last night was my first time ever using the Arc Charger secondary on a group of people, Instant 5 kills off two shots :D.

This isn't official by any means but some of us seem to think that we are getting the maps and the International Server on Thursday May 31st. Strongest reason being that the Japan update happens June 1st and their PS Store has it's updates on Fridays.

Those first two games I played last night were bad I went 14-17 and 9-14 :(. But once the warm up suit came off or should I say the WarHawk Flight Suit I went 20-10 and 49-29 to finish the night positive :D

Heh heh...brought a LAARK to picnic at their base. Took a couple of tries though. Apparently, they didn't think too much of the idea. :D

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL OMG AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Aeon seriously i laughed for nearly a half hour. I just keep think about it cutting off her leg, ahahahahaha. I had never seen that. I actualy have two ferrets; they are both very nice but the older one, the female will go ape scat on you if you mess around with her. She will only bite the face, he doesn't like going eye-to-eye with people. Thats even what she looks like, oh man that is funny. I need to get that footage i have of them fighting, very funny.

That commercial reminded me of the game me, you and Sutdawg were Popa Squad and then your character stopped moving and we heard you in the background screaming no and why did you do that, it was going in the wall to attack the neighbor right:lol.

I have this major headache this morning which I think is from Resistance withdraw so expect me on tonight.

Sutdawg how long are you going to be a Junior Member? Thought it was 100posts.

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.

Message from IG:

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

Didn't know they were on :(, and we need more evenly balenced objective games so I can rack up on def kills.

Argh was doing awesome in a game with M3 but then got the weird disconnect symbol before being kicked seconds later. And I'll be there for about an hr or two for the meetup so I'll make up for all you drunk people like always :).
