256kbits upload usally means the other 7 players get a lot of lag all the time
Is that if I'm hosting the game? Usually I have zero lag when I join a custom 8 player game.
Well, I haven't noticed any lag before world wide servers, so if I had to guess, I'd say your problem would be related. Even after that, nothing deal breaker, mostly not even noticeable unless you know your stuff.
First I started to use NA only servers, but not being able to find matches frequently I had to switch world-wide. Depressingly, nowadays I'm not allowed in ranked matches either way unless I create a new account and pretend to be a newbie FPS genius. Hence I'm stuck with CoD4 for my online gaming needs.
And for the record, there is no way Resistance has traditional host-server p2p model, though I'm sure it does a lot of p2p tricks to ease dedicated server load. So upload bandwidth requirement should be sublinear wrt number of players.
Nice and all but I want to see prettier humanoids enemies now. (X-ray, Cloven?)
Despite Resistance being one of my favorite games of all times, I actually hate monster shooting/fighting in games.
Thats if your hosting.
The host's uploadspeed is the only thing that matters for everyone 99% of the time, after the obvious first bottleneck.
Well, the full moon podcast is out now, apparently there are some details about Resistance 2 in it.
I haven't listened to it, but apparently the single player levels are completed and just need twining together in the story and fine tuning. GI played the game in 8 player co-op and those scans are confirmed to be in game.

Well, in that sense there is almost no info regarding single player campaign and competitive multilayer.
Of course looking at the sales of original Halo on Xbox, one may conclude coop is the only important component of any shooter.
I'm glad to learn that classes are not in team deathmatch (at least for ranked) though.
Some misconceptions put to rest.

Chameleon is a creature - not a stalker/vehicle
Random level generations is for co-op, not singleplayer. Plus changes set-up, but isn't procedurally generated
New soldier classes only in co-op, not online competitive multi.

I didn't know that you can choose the servers you'll play on... I'll try it again this weekend. I haven't played Resistance online as much as I'd want to...
On topic, I hope there will be traditional DM on R2 'cause I usually don't like class based multi.
Joke from objective me, reality from the diehard Resistance fan inside.
Unlike you, some people actually enjoyed Resistance and have faith in Insomniac as they always deliver. If there is hype it surely is not because of online ambitions of Insomniac alone.
Maybe, but I wouldn't call it "overhype" just yet, at least until I see the game to determine the appropriate amount of hype....then that sure is overhype.
BTW, gaf has a strong Resistance community due to excellent online features of Resistance, so it's normal for gaffers to get over excited.
Thanks.
I see some poly edges on rocks in one of the pics.

Wow!
They are the same ones as in the zip file.
Bullshots of course (downscaled press shots for the print
)That said, Insomniac haven't disappointed regarding AA yet, hopefully they will do good by us again.
