Fun couple of matches. I need to figure out how my mic works still.

It's RemyVJA. You did send me a friends invite.
Just as a word to the new players: from my experience playing in GAF nights over the last week, the easiest way to get invited into the parties is to be a part of the clan. As nice as it would be, it's nearly impossible for everyone to add everyone else as friends; it's much easier for whoever's running the party to hit the clan tab and just add everyone who's online.
So, send kaching a message and get a clan invite; then you're much more likely to get picked up when we get parties going.
Also: When we're playing Ranked Team games, switch your squad to Tango (you can do this in the Staging screen by hitting triangle, or you can do it in game by pausing and then going to Options). This way you don't have to hit L3 to voice chat, and in game modes other than DM, you can choose to spawn near the squad.

I don't know if the party is still going on but if it is please send me an invite. mgs_van

I'm not quite sure where the notion to have a custom room came from; all the GAF games I've played have been in a party, so that we can all be on the same team and jump into ranked matches.
Parties can also create custom rooms as they see fit, so if we got 20 people one night we could split it 10/10 and play team games privately.
Parties > Private Room

Thanks for putting that together Wollan.

You were having trouble with the SOCOM mic too right? I picked up a Motorola H300 for about $30, works fine (long as you don't mind using batteries).

Ya thats what im using. Thanks ill look into the Motorola H300 but I was also wondering if you manipulated your ports in any way. I was wondering if this may be causing some issue.

Tuesdays 8pm PST

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) 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.

Nah haven't had to mess with any ports, H300 seems to work without a hitch. Your SOCOM mic is probably just an old piece of crap like mine. :lol
Kittonwy said:
The best thing to do is to join a squad once you're in the game. Once the game starts tell all Gaffers to join a squad (or two depending on how many guys you have). Once you're in a squad it's open mic, so you don't have to worry about holding down L3 - you can just talk freely. Sometimes my mic craps out once a game starts and I have to reset it. This usually fixes the problem, but reseting also results in the game freezing for a few seconds (i guess the headset resyncs itself and causes a slight freeze). pretty annoying, but it usually works

Hi guys,
I know you experience some wonkiness with the servers yesterday. Here's the official skinny:
JS
Thank you for your recent patience with server issues we encountered on Sunday, January 7. We wanted to first ensure that we fully understood the reasons for the outage before we sent an update regarding fixes. The server downtime was due to several fixes we implemented to correct the stats backlog. We have made significant progress processing backlogged stats and we anticipate that the backlog should be cleared within the week -- barring any other unforeseen issues that could arise. As soon as the backlog has been cleared, we will make an announcement in-game and in the forums.
Thanks again for your continued patience and support. We really appreciate it.

I might be hallucinating, but i swear there used to be an option to "Join Buddy" from the buddy list. Last night when we the big game was going on, I was basically at the mercy of the party leader to invite me. I didn't see any "Join Buddy" option, even with people out of the party. I was out of the loop for about an hour until i could get in the GAF party.
Can you clear this up for me?
PS: i would also like to donate $15 to the "Patch Resistance to use the XMB Buddy List" fund.

Hi
Just had my US ps3 and get resistance .
Im about 1hour solo (get into the transformation lab) so far its great , but the multiplayer is amazing....
When were creating a game , were creating it on Insomniac/sony server?
Im amazed how well the net code is done....playing from EU with 0 lag is kinda impressive...
but what im also amazed is to see 20 fire grenade + 20 hedgehog , with all the hedgehog lauching hundreds of needles , i mean WHAT amount of net code is going through all of this? calculating every needle impact (sometimes like 500 of them) for 40 players? i say wow.
ANyway since im very bad few questions:
Humans ability is to crouch and to have unlimited running if u want
Chimera ability is to speed up for some times and to see through some walls?
How is the tilt control used? didnt find .
thx

Yep. Also Chimera get a damage boost when in "Rage Mode", although it cuts away at their own health bar. Humans have radar to see their teammates and moving enemy positions on the map, while Chimera can only see themselves.
Chimera players can seem a little overpowering at first when playing on the human side, but if you leverage the human advantages it balances out. Use your map and radar to help set up your attacks, and abuse your sprint advantage. The default rifle has superior range to the more powerful Bullseye so use distance when you can. Don't forget you have a grenade at spawn, they don't. And above all, the Flamethrower is your best friend.
Tilt 90 degrees left to bring up the map, 90 degrees right to bring up the score. Shake the pad when you're set on fire to put out the flames, or shake off a Bullseye tag.

Done! Close range vs. a Chimera in rage mode is basically bad news (unless they suck).

Yeah I think there's a limit but it shoots pretty far. Keep in mind the bullets will trail so if an opponent is moving left or right you have to lead them a little bit. Aiming down the sites (zoomed in) takes some getting used to. As always aim for the head.

Going through the game again I cant believe how satisfying it is just punting a chimera like 20 feet with the jeep...hahaha classic

Wicked game there, although the team got to be a bit too small to cover a map of that size.
Might seem like a small thing, but seeing as how I've been adding a few people to the GAF clan just about every day for the past week or so, I really appreciate that the game launches from cold boot with little preamble. You can skip past Insomniac's logo sequence within a few seconds and you're dumped right to the main menu without a title screen in the middle.
And I hope there's a generous limit on the clan size because the NeoGAF RFOM clan is growing at a pretty healthy rate.

I finally got back to college and had some time to take a few screenshots of Resistance in HD (last time, I did SD just for comparison purposes). Since this thread hasn't seen new screenshots in a while, now seems to be a good time to post a few for new PS3/Resistance owners.
Note: Some minor spoilers are in my screenshots, since they're taken from the 2nd to last level in Campaign mode.
