Corris Veteran Posted November 27, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2008 Animal Crossing taught me that if you bury money in the ground with a golden shovel, there's a chance a money tree will grow :o Try that! Pssh, didn't work when I was a kid, the only thing I got out of that was some dirty pound coins. If a cheap deal of any kind happens to appear, like ?28 or something, I might get it, but I might just get it for Xmas anyway, I've got a ton of work to do, and haven't played a game in over a week.:cry:: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/673092-official-resistance-2/page/19/#findComment-590193526 Share on other sites More sharing options...

soniqstylz Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 And I just bought those RealTriggers for $5 US, have not seen them any cheaper than that, but the best $5 I ever spent. Are those like RealDolls for gamers?

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted November 28, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2008 @DM I just tried to join your party, but failed :( Oh, no idea why that was? I was playing a 60 player match and it was pretty full so maybe that's why. Last I checked I was 5th on the score board, might have finished higher I dunno :p Pleased with myself cause I hate playing FPS with the dualshocks. I'm still holding my own against players who are probably a lot more comfortable with it than I am, so (Y). Also, I swapped the sprint button to L1 and reload to Square. The thumb sticks on the PS3 controller are s*** for pressing down to sprint.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted November 28, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2008 I know but I'm just trying to make more like games I play on the 360. COD4 & 5, Battlefield etc all use the thumb stick to sprint. And placing your fingers on R1 and L1 for firing / aim just feels so wrong :/ Think I'm happy with my setup now though (Y) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/673092-official-resistance-2/page/19/#findComment-590194156 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might mess about with controls at some point, as I tend to melee for some reason in MP when I am trying to shoot. But does not happen in SP, so not sure what that is.

Corris Veteran Posted November 28, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2008 Resistance 2 Advertising Takes Over Dublin NewspapersSony scares the living **** out the nice folks in Dublin. Ireland today, will full page advertisements for Resistance 2 masquerading as front page stories declaring "America Under Attack!" Kotakuite Cyruss sends us full scans of the four-page wrap-around that lovingly embraced the actual free Dublin morning papers Metro and Herald AM. Stories range from the front-page spectacular to a scientific analysis of the Chimera and a letter from the President of the United States to the American people, urging them to band together against the Chimera threat. This is some of the most brilliant marketing I've seen in quite some time. I can't find anywhere on the front page where it says this is a joke, so not only will it sell the game, it'll move a ton of papers, meaning more advertising revenue for the free papers. Everybody wins - except poor America, of course. Kotaku Badassery! I'm pretty sure I have the same newspaper, well, one with more pages that came with a PSM3 issue.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted November 28, 2008 Author Subscriber² Share Posted November 28, 2008 LOL, wow that's absolutely awesome. Best marketing stunt I've seen in a while :D Even bigger LOL at the people on Kotaku Irresponsible Advertising, meet idiots who can't pay attention and are easily frightened. Idiots who can't pay attention and are easily frightened (and like to sue), meet Irresponsible Advertising. Considering what just happened in India...and the overall "uneasiness" of the current global climate, I just can't see the logic in "America Under Attack" in giant print in a newspaper.Yes. Even with a giant alien on the cover. :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/673092-official-resistance-2/page/19/#findComment-590197086 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheee Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 That newspaper is mad, unfortunatly, it does come at bad timing with what has happened in India etc, but you can tell its fake, like the president etc, and saying the game comes out etc. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/673092-official-resistance-2/page/19/#findComment-590197306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted November 28, 2008 Author Subscriber² Share Posted November 28, 2008 Just played some of my first team objective based games. Damn it's fun, a lot of back and forth, but it's cool constantly being on your toes! Almost at level 4. I'm getting annoyed at the amount of time it's taking for my imported Socom bundle to reach me, I really need my headset. Puts me off online gaming if I can't communicate :( Which is why I've waited so long with R2, but im a bit hooked now :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/673092-official-resistance-2/page/19/#findComment-590197370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpu killer Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 They ruined co-op for me. My roommate and I loved R1 coop because we got to play through the SP campaign together and it was a lot of fun. The new mission-based coop seems like bull to me, and I played it for a bit and didn't enjoy it at all. I don't mind the new coop for massive online games, but for 2-player offline coop I would have loved to be able to play just the SP campaign with a friend, guess that was too hard for Insomniac. Oh well. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/673092-official-resistance-2/page/19/#findComment-590197390 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. Clearly due to development timescales effort was put into the 8 player co-op campaign. To be honest, I prefer that this time around. Co-Op in most SP games is just a tacked on buddy, and while it's fun, there's so many games offering it now, something a little bit different is good. If you can get 3/4, or even the ideal number, 8 buddies together, you can't disagree the prospect of having all 8 of you, headsets intact playing Co-Op won't be worth a shot. The element of having classes as well mixes it up, you're not just two identical gunning characters running through a level. I'm dying to try it out, but without a headset it will be pretty crappy for me.

l3thalsab3r Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 just wondering. since a few people are starting to get their copies of r2. do we have enough people for a full 8 player neowin co-op match?

Michael1406 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Just finished the main storyline. Tomorrow is co-op time methinks. If I'm available at the time, I'd be up for a team-based game. I have a headset. But not one of Sony's fancy new ones. Not that it matters much - mine's currently under my bed due to a lack of use.

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted November 29, 2008 Author Subscriber² Share Posted November 29, 2008 I'm still waiting on my Socom bundle (for headset), but I'll jump on Co-Op whenever. Got to level 5 online, so I'm getting better at the game.

Pheee Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Well I havent had coursework for a few years, but have work everyday... but just the selection of games is killing me.

Michael1406 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 It's the same with me. I've still got things to do on Assassin's Creed, GTA4, Dead Space, DMC4 and Dark Sector, and I haven't even put Bioshock into my PS3 yet! But still, I can't stop doing co-op missions. I got 2nd in a 60 man match yesterday morning. That match went really well though - had 10 kills 1 death in the first 3 or so minutes.
