Resistance 2

Woo hoo ! I just got my R2 beta code. Downloaded and patched to 1.02. Entering game now !

[size=-2]UI has improved further after the beta, voice quality is indeed great, etc.... starting game. See ya ![/size]

Can I just redownload my closed beta...and get a patch update? Not that I care. I'm enjoying MS2 and LBP :) Oh and KZ2...which I haven't touched.

deepbrown, to answer your question in GAF about "what's improved":
* Speed has been tuned (Overall faster but I heard the competitive play is still not as fast as R1 to make it more accessible to newbies).
* The colors are more saturated and the overall picture more refined.
* Default control is different
* I have only played Orick co-op so far, the map is slightly different.
* Enemy AI cranked up. Hill top fighting is now epic (^_^). Unfortunately, the Titan in the factory/warehouse is still relatively helpless when faced with 8 human enemies. In case of doubt, I thought the Titan should go into berserk and charge against a random guy. Right now it's doing very little to cause any damage. Will post about the Hybrids when I learn more. They appeared much more nimble and aggressive in the Hilltop battle now.

Pretty sure they are both separate builds / files, so the closed beta won't even call for the patch, or function with the Open Beta...sorry man :(

That said, kind of sad that 'nades go further now, and iron sights importance was tuned way down :( Loving the speed change though.
 
Someone in GAF mentioned that the Qore subscribers will get theirs between yesterday and this afternoon.

GameStop pre-ordered customers are getting the beta in the same timeframe as Qore subscribers. Should be soon.

Depends on which weapon you use. Spec Ops' rifle pretty much requires iron sight to fight effectively -- unless the enemy is right in front of you.

Well, I just mean in general. I would have been happier if they would have just sped up the game (like they did) but left the important of iron sights as it was. Right now the only use the serve, in my limited experience, is getting a closer view to enemies that are far away.

That said, co-op still rocks the house, and I'm still an insomniac groupie.
 
This was brought up briefly here. Resistance 2 will support online split screen. :)

As development on the game is wrapping up in here in Burbank, and the last few bugs are hunted down and squashed, we wanted to make an announcement we’re very excited about. Since Resistance: Fall of Man, one of the biggest feature requests for the game was that we implemented split-screen online play. We are happy to announce that Resistance 2 will feature 2-player split-screen play for both competitive play as well as our 8-player online co-op campaign!

Why fucked ?

If you preordered from GameStop, you should bug them for your key. I think you needed to enter the key GameStop gave you on the Resistance site to claim your beta code. Unless you followed through the steps, no one knows your email. Call the Sony support line listed in the above thread for additional help if your beta code doesn't work. If your local GameStop ran out of the keys, then it would be a different problem.

If you subscribed to Qore, now that is Sony's mistake. They should have your email since one is needed for sign in. Might want to check your spam filter and then call Sony if the beta email doesn't arrive.

Sony is the one giving out the codes. Read the thread. When you call Sony they have no clue. Gamestop is now saying it's upto Sony. I called Gamestop. Sony is useless as per the many responses in that thread.
 
I did.

Some people registered their GameStop key but the beta code has not arrived via Email. These people should be angry. Then again, you can walk over to GameStop to get a new one like this guy: http://www.myresistance.net/smf/index.php?topic=80607.msg2324251#msg2324251

I just went to the local GameStop and got a brand new voucher and it worked instantly as someone else posted. It looks like their database got screwed up or something and a LARGE batch of GameStop entries with redeemed codes didn't get the email.

I think everyone who has a GS order go back to the B&M store or the 800 number to get a new voucher code.

If they would have just put the normal redemption code on the damn voucher none of this garbage would have happened.

For some others (like me), I haven't even gone to GameStop to get my key ^_^
Will do so now to get one for RenegadeRocks.

This is only the first wave of Email. The beta will last until mid November.
 
Gamestop gives you a code to register with myresistance.net (it's on a card), Sony had nothing to do with it.

I understand the drama, at least with respect to its source.
 
Ha ha... it's a 3 page thread (at most 60 people complained, probably some more affected). There are at least 15,000 beta players active now. That's wave 1.
