[PS3] Resistance 3 [SPOILER ALERT - Contains R2 story discussion]

[Billy Idol]

I wonder why such a low rez, its not like the game looks better. Are they supporting 3d?

Yeah, I am curious too?!?!? What happened? Hope that they get the aliasing under control somehow (either by proper art or some fancy AA tech)!

jstevenson mentioned something about proprietary server tech and then refused to reveal more. May or may not be related to the PSN Pass rumor. We shall see !

Supposedly somewhere in this thread:
http://www.insomniacgames.com/community/index.php?topic=54277.1335

To be honest stuff like this actually does nothing for me. There's so much competition for online MP at the moment that a game like R3 probably won't get me online at all. I'm far more interested in the SP game and would rather they focus their attention on polishing and developing fancy proprietary tech for that side of the game.

By the end of 2011 if it's not U3 that takes all my online MP game time it'll be some other game. I just want R3 SP to be as epic and godly as it can be

Ah... my favorite FPSes so far are mostly server-based: RFOM, MAG, and looks like R3 will be among them.

They claimed that SP will focus on scary atmosphere like in RFOM.

As for low res, how low is it ? According to earlier interviews, Insomniac prefer to use only RSX to do graphics. In R3, they may still rely on RSX as much as possible -- even for 3D -- while reserving the SPUs for physics and AI (e.g., in RFOM, every Hedgehog spike trajectory was calculated on the fly).

R3 beta sign up (If you don't have Socom 4):

Just in case you’ve been blissfully living underground, we want to remind you that there is a war with the Chimera going on. Would you kindly help us fight them off? All you have to do is fill out this form for the chance to apply to join in on the Resistance 3 Beta, which is starting soon. Those of you randomly chosen to brave the Bullseye bullets and Auger assaults will be treated to a sizable slice of the revitalized Resistance 3 multiplayer weeks before its full release.

If you aren’t among the first recruits given access to the Beta - don’t fret. We will be randomly distributing codes to a select few throughout the duration of the Public Beta. All are welcome to apply, but only some will be chosen for the opportunity to truly resist. Are you one of them?

Well I hope depends to 3d because graphically seem everything except wonderful to justify so low framebuffer I mean I can to understand for game like Red faction: armagedon or even crysis 2 (afterall even the terrible average of fps, GI it's impossible for this generation) , but for this one... I'm really astonished from so mediocre result...

Are all these pics from the most current build? I saw the game at e3 and thought it looked good, seems odd to see these low quality pics now.

 

[patsu]

No idea. The boat demo is quite old though.

The community manager got me into the August beta. I'll be able to find out more. ^_^

 

[RenegadeRocks]

Applied for the beta. Hope I get it !

 

[RenegadeRocks]

New Weapon :The Mutator ! The games graphics look really good here !

BTW< if anyone gets an extra code please remember me as the one who asked first (and needs it most desperately !)

There has been only 1 guy online when I tried to play the beta.

But it looks nice, from running around I have not seen any jaggies.

I never played RFOM or R2 in competetive mode, only SP and COOP in R2.

But the game feels heavier and less twitchy, but that might change with mod upgrades like faster running etc.

I was on the fence about this game due to the removal of COOP, but I do like the Resistance Universe and well, might be a decent SP time waster

 

[ShadowRunner]

Does the beta include Move support?

Does the beta include Move support?

Yes, I did not try it, but there is a menu there for it at least. When I entered, it said, no Move device is currently connected or something like that.

Well I have received code and downloaded it, so yes.

But nobody has been on, when I tried, except for one guy, who I just murdered, well 3-1 in Kills over 2 rounds.

 

[patsu]

I see Gaffers queuing up for the codes. You'll get more friends to play with soon. ^_^

 

[RenegadeRocks]

Brand New SP Footage played by IGN ! The game looks very cool to me, feels like R:FOM visually ! Its the Haven level during day, must be the start of the game.They are titled Part 2 and 3 in true IGN style, there's no part 1 ! ! They, too, seem to love the graphics of the game !

 

[RenegadeRocks]

30 minutes of the beginning of R3 with dev commentary !

Two of the Insomniac masterminds behind PS3 exclusive Resistance 3 recently stopped by the Game Informer office to show off the upcoming sequel. Creative director Marcus Smith and lead designer Drew Murray sat down with me to play through the first 30 minutes of the game complete with their commentary.

Insomniac revealed more in Comic-con:
http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/118/1182900p1.html

At today's Resistance 3 panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Insomniac Games revealed a new web-based game that's tied in with the upcoming PlayStation 3-exclusive Resistance 3. It's called Global Resistance, and it'll be playable on the web at MyResistance.net.

Developed by Soap, Global Resistance is a strategy game that allow gamers to tie both their Facebook and PlayStation Network accounts to their Global Resistance campaign. By doing so, gamers could potentially earn in-game perks and unlockables in Resistance 3, including multiplayer skins and more.

Looks like a promo game to generate buzz. Still targeting the same audience.

How 'bout some Ratchet and Clank web games ? If done right, it should help boost sales of existing R&C titles.

 

[assurdum]

My complaint it's about explosion effects & resolution (but even some colours not really convice me so much). If the game was 960x704p why insomniac not have use a better buffer for the special effects? The explosions animations seem really 'essentials' & not so beautiful to see in a game which really require that...& the colours of the lights appears just...weird... I can't explain but remind me to ps2 even with the deferred light seems outdated...
