Played Resistance online the other day and played a human vs human for the first and hopefully last time. What the hell is that nonesense? It is too hard to tell who's on my team. At least in Halo it's red vs blue and you are actually red or blue.

Enemies have their aliases in red above their heads.

Yeah but it's not same as I lose a split second before my brain catches on.

Stop playing stoned.

Edit: Your crosshair goes red too I believe. I sold my copy of the title months ago. Wish i didn't.

Just wondering. There's a thread for "another" console FPS going where they're talking about sensitivity settings. I'd like to ask, what sensitivity are many of you playing at? Me, I'm playing at the default setting, which seems fast enough for me. Anyone playing this higher than 4 sensitvity?

Just to respond to another thread... Ted isn't leaving Insomniac. it's obviously a very silly rumor, and if it is true that an ex-intern started it... well, we have no idea how they would get such a thought into their head.

Anyways, just giving official confirmation that it's false since the mods locked the thread and BuddyC isn't on AIM for me to bug so I can post in there.

I think most reasonable people assumed as much, dude. I think Odysseus had the best post in that thread, "ted price to leave his own studio to start his own studio?". But hopefully your comment will stop any small brush fires from flaring up.

Yeah we have people playing with every possible setting.

I'm probably the only person in our clan at 9.
Big E is probably the only one at 1.
Sutdawg is 7 or 8.
A bunch of people in between.

Well, when you have a crazy rumor that is completely false, you deny it quickly... Someone saw it on Gametrailers earlier and e-mailed Ted, and he left me an e-mail so I have been squashing this on various boards since I got back from a panel I was at tonight.

I thought Ted leaving was to balance out the influx of Bungie employees?

Oh, it's been that widespread? :lol Sounds like good times. I'm sure it will make an appearance in this thread too soon enough.

Wow ridiculous it's obviously a counter rumor to the news about Bungie.

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

Resistance has me hooked.
I think about it when I shit.
I think about it when I shower.
I think about it on my way to work.
I think about it when I dream about beating Aeon to 2000 defense kills.
Resistance has me hooked.

One day during online play:

efertlis: WHAT THE FUCK?
m3freak: what? what happened?
efertlis: Some dude killed me.
m3freak: ....
efertlis: You can't kill me.

Earlier:

[ lots of chatter in the lobby ]
sutdawg: m3geek is...
hijo: [ interrupting ] how's it going, guys?
sutdawg: blha blha blah [completely drowned out by Aeon whining]
sutdawg: he he
m3freak: what the hell is sutdawg talking about?

During a game:

m3freak: nice work, hijo: 7 and 976
hijo: I was going for stealth kills.
m3freak: really?
hijo: thanks, m3freak. I appreciate it.
m3freak: I'm just saying I was surprised by your massive suckage.
hijo: ....
hijo: fucking m3.

Meanwhile:

[grenade goes off, careksims dies]
careksims: what the heck man, I was like 1 foot away from it
[careksims chucks a grenade 50 ft over a guys head, and blows up a window]
careksims: why don't my grenades kill anyone?
careksims: ...
careksims: come on, man...::sigh::

M3Geek, you owe me 25 seconds of my life back for making me read this whole thing!

Although the Careksims part was funny... it might actually be the first funny thing you've ever said.

Right now I am at 2 but I think I will be trying 9 tonight. With my little hiatus I am starting to lose single engagements which I would normally win 9 times out of 10.

I used to play quite some time on the default setting, then lowered it to 3 (enjoyed all the headshots, hated the backstabbing), then stepped it up to 8/9, too twitchy, played some time on 7, played more Warhawk (less RFoM) and had to drop a notch to my current setting of 6. I think it really takes constant training to maintain a good performance on 7/8/9, but it's clearly an advantage.

Hey thanks I got an invite from queeg or something like that I think. The game was full though! But thanks anyways.

Man Resistance has some GREAT AI.

I second that I'm playing through the SP again but this time on hard.

I've already finished it on every mode, ect, but I played through it a bit this weekend, just to show my buddy what was up in between rounds of finishing Halo 3. What I like most about Resistance SP, especially the harder modes, is how it makes you learn to use all the weapons at your disposal. Sounds like a simple thing, but I'm always shocked at how few FPS games really make you utilize the entire available weapons set.

Sorry I kept on disconnecting. My network was acting weird. I could get on but then 10 minutes later I would be kicked. I could then get immediately back on but the problems continued. I think it may have been a dns error but I am not sure. Going to leave my PS3 on all day and hopefully yesterday was just an isolated issue.

That's too bad - Kittonwy was freaking hilarious. He gave me material for days - now I just have to work on a story/poem/or something else lame.

Sounds like I missed a fun night. Plus side I'm in a new department at work sort've so I won't have to be to work at 6am after tomorrow. Bad thing is I'll have to close more like this Friday and Saturday. I'll be on Friday night though but might not make it Saturday cause I have a meeting at 7am Sunday.

just finished the main game ^_^

slightly odd but not the mega-boss that I was half-dreading, so it's all good ^_^
The level of intensity made up for not fighting a big bad boss at the end. I still remember having a meltdown on Normal trying to beat the part where the Hybrids are sniping down on you with bullseyes while you fight two angels.

I so hated that. It took me like 15 tries to beat it.

It was. Even more amazingly awesome than when you joined us in a similar state.

:D

Well, maybe not...but certainly more, uh, RANDY...

...

I wish I was taking the screenshots. I had fun doing a bunch of Uncharted screens, but it's not the same. Uh, and I didn't get paid. (OK, I feel like a chump now...)

F U and your cool job, JS!

Ok... how did you do uncharted screens for free... and on top of that, WHY do you like doing screens? I've blogged on our site about the pain it causes.

LOL the parts we could understand were really funny. Some of it ran together though. About the girl: all I could figure out was that Kitton was all "RAWR!" and she was all "RAWR!".

The Royal Bank of Canada must throw bitchin' keggers.

Why? I'm a photographer by trade so that sort of thing is fun for me, trying to capture "the moment" when the action and angle make for a good composition and all that... Compared to spending hours and hours and hours on one shot and (at least in the "good old days) spending countless more hours in the darkroom, it seems like a fun diversion. Short answer: I'm sick like that! :D
