So now I know it: I'm crap at Resistance 2. Tips?

Every game, I average around 3-5 less kills than deaths... now that I think of it, that's probably if I"m lucky.

Anyway, in this game, it always seems he who shoots first, wins. It seem sthat even if I do shoot first, the opponent does a simple strafe and dodges my shots. And it always seems that whenever I do the same, it's no use. Every weapon I use, I suck with, except I am somewhat decent with the Wraith, though it takes too long for that gun to start up, and the Fareye, but I always get sniped by other snipers first, before I can take out standard infantrymen.

I always get out-gunned in seemingly every firefight I"m in. I seemingly on get kills if I sneak up on someone, though it is pretty rare.

Anyone got a prescription?

This requires some luck. It works best with a hedgehog but its okay with a frag too. So if somebody is close to you, and is shooting you from behind, it is very unlikely that you will live unless you take a corner. What I do is turn around quickly, get a glimpse of where the other person is, get a quick trajectory, and throw the grenade. All this needs to be done in a very short time, thats why you need to be lucky. But if you do get the kill, its the best feeling in the world.

Also, another tip with the Wraith. If you are sprinting and you run into someone, put up your shield automatically. Wait until they begin to reload, then just unload on them. Or you can also run right up to them, throw a grenade at their feet. That works too.

Good Luck!

1. dont run everywhere. when you run, you show up on the radar.

2. keep and eye on the radar, look for the red dots, they're the enem. if you see one comming around a corner just wait and try to get the jump on em from behind.

3. aim for the head. if you start shooting first and lose, it means you were getting body shots and they were getting head shots.

4. be on the move constantly, the kill cam will show where you were when you killed the opponent and the first thing on their mind will be revenge.

5. if you cant use the wraith properly, the bullseye is the best short range weapon, but piss poor medium ranged accuracy. but the carbine is a well balanced weapon for short/medium range, plus the secondary fire is a 40mm which is a one hit kill.

6. melee from behind=one hit kill(most of the time)

7. set the sensitivity to your liking, most of the better people have it around 80% but thats too much for someonewho sucks. start lower then work your way up as you get more comfy

8. i personally dont trust the grenades, they never blow up early enough, they aren't guaranteed to kill and they're and long animation to throw. if you want to use em, use em from far away.

9. dont be intimidated by a high ranking guy on the other team. high rank just means they play alot. it's not a measurment of skill. i've seen alot of privates own generals.

10. dont get angry. at first my k/d was like .3 when i was around 1000 kills. it sucked bad. but now i have 3800 kills and 2700 deaths.1.65 k/d ratio(ranked). you'll et better with time.

11. get some practice in unranked matches. ranked matchs are retarded. people in there are damn good by comparison. but going into unranked will give you some practice will aiming at least.

12. dont be a camping sniper in a game with me. one of my favoritve things to do in skirmish is walk up behind snipers and melee them.and since they're usually the crappy players they always head right back to the same spot. easy kills.

Just keep playing. Oh and play in Orick it is much funner.

That is how I got better.

My suggestion is to experiment. You just need to find your weapon of choice like people in this thread. My weapon of choice is the Auger.

I don't like Resistance 2 competitive. The map design is horrible, the weapons are unbalanced, respawns are often either miles off the target or right beside an enemy, there are so many people that you're likely to get shot down without even knowing what hit you. The road to 10'000 kills will be long and annoyingBenderUnit22

The weapons aren't unbalanced but this is a common misconception for people. Experience and time teaches people though that the only balanced weapon is the 40mm on the Carbine. Everything else can be overcome through various methods.

YOu guys give some nice tips. See you online soon I hope. I just got the game and I'll be ready soon.

yeah but you kinda NEED to shoot. i usually run till im about 50m away from the target if i know theres gonne be enemies there. then i walk the rest of the way.
