BTW... this is for ps3 folks, no boxy's allowed.

Um... I've been playing resistance online, and it's either i suck or the guys online are invincible! i mean it takes twice as long for my to kill them as it takes me to die :(... So now I've resorted to using grenades as they the only things that can kill the guys one time

Dude you are sooo right, I have managed to come out with the highest score once though so it aint mission impossible! But Ja when ure shooting away face to face its like those buggers are invincible! try getting the weapon upgrades along the way, dont bother with the gun ure given when you spawn.
 
Lol... the gun you given only works on the chimera(if you human) and vis versa. But still... i mean i get 7 kills, and thats only with grenades... and how do you get weapon upgrades? i mean ilve just upgraded from private(aka noob) to the guy higher(i think is private major for something).

Oh, ya, i've played gears on my friends box, isn't the game for me(ha ha ha, finally a reason for me NOT to get a box). I like resistance, only problem is the maps are to big for 6 or so players, so you end up running and getting no action.

I don't think it's fair comparing Gears to Resistance. They are very different games. I guess Halo 3 will be the resistance game for the Xbox.. That or Unreal 2008....

I heard the new patch released for resistance breaks the online play though...

lol... if you try enough you can get in, and ya resistance and gears are two very very different games, resistance is like unreal 2004, with less people and less chaos... but it's fun to kill people with a shot gun,
 
I play online and don't have any problems killing anybody. Don't get to number 1 but I kill enough people.
 
well... it's getting easier to kill as a level up, only thing is that it's just the factory of, getting used to a the joysticks.

Good game, and there's no lag, which is pretty awesome.
 
Scotty, I'd suspect it is a lag issue. Even though the game looks like it's running fine (the box compensates so there's no jitter) you probably find your shots are off because of server lag.

It's a common thing, it happens in the likes of Gears or Battlefield or anything like that, fact is, on a shaped account you have, at best, 400ms+ latency to anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere (half a second or more), there's no way around that, even if the game looks smooth.

Try rather hosting localling.
 
Wow this thread is loaded with PS3 people, it's hard to keep count! Sorry couldn't resist :p

Hmm very valid point, the best way to check your lag is to run up to a wall and take a few pot shots at it from about 5 meters away. See how long it takes before you see the effect... Sometimes I play Gears and everything looks fine but the lag is actually over a second...
 
No problem, try the local host thing. As a note though typically you can host 4-5 guys on a 384 line, you'll need 512 or 4Mb to host more (note it's the upload speed that the issue)

@Gav, exactly - I've been trying to play ranked and often get over 2 seconds worth! And the guys still b**** like little girls when I chainsaw them :D

What account do you have? I would be interested in seeing real-world comparisons between SAIX and Verizon. PM me if anyone wants to try...
