Resistance 2: Rise of Man -- Deepest Console FPS Ever?

Note: This Info was revealed in a blog at onAxis via Surfer Girl. Also this information could be made up and therefore fake. Anyone who took the time to make this should really consider pitching ideas to Insomniac (if this isn't real).

A deeper look into...

The Resistance:

Weapon Cl@$$ Examples

These are just examples of weapon ****s in Resistance 2. Judging from the weapon models it looks to be set in present day or the near future. You can still play as either a Chimera or Human soldier.

Multiplayer

These are all possible multiplayer ideas Insomniac has instore for Resistance 2. If every priority is completed the Multiplayer could be the deepest ever made for a console shooter. Period. If you analyze it you will be impressed (especially if you are a fan of shooters).

Single Player Campaign (SPOILERS)

It looks like the game will take place in North America as well as Europe. There are supposed to be 10 boss battles throughout the single player campaign!

If this is true...

oh... my.... god.

Amazing.

I highly doubt this is ture though.

Resistance 2 -- Still far away from a release date?

How's about we get through 2007 and the first half of 2008 before we worry about Resistance 2?

well if every priority for every game was completed all games would be the "deepest FPS ever" :roll:

how can man fall twice?

the weapons are too generic...imma havta call BS.-Serpahim-

That's impossible.

Cows have repeatedly claimed KZ2 would be the deepest, best console FPS ever.

easy, if man gets back up again.

Surfer girl? :?, s/he isnt exactly known for reliable info, still, This would be pretty crazy if it was real.

LMAO@ the PS3 fanboys who love talking about games with unknown release dates, and games in which very little is known about. Can you blame them though? The PS3 is in last place selling 1/4-1/5 the consoles a month compared to the 360, has a lack of games, and not evena single AAA EXCLUSIVE for that matter. jd7-03

Look man, I'm a gamer. I don't pick sides. I am excited to see all of these features in Resistance 2 (if true). If it were any 360 shooter Lems would be all over it as would I :).

Ha! Pretty funny yes, but I put "deepest ever made for a console shooter."

There is no way that it won't be if all of these goals are met. Resistance 2 is already in alpha testing stage and still a long way off, so these features could very well make it into the game.

I can't wait for Resistance 2. Resistance was the best shooter I played....well, probably ever! And I played a lot of them!NathanDrake

You know, it doesn't look all that impressive. Going chart by chart:

The first chart is basically nothing worthwile- classes have been done often, and 5 classes is nothing to write home about.

The second chart shows a nice variety of multiplayer modes, more than the average, and rather close (if not at the top of) the scale. However, other than that, it's nothing you don't see in many games -and several of those options are intrinsic to XBL.

The third chart nice variety, but other than I say nothing special. And, um, 5 1/2 hours of planned SP?

The charts look impressive, but their content doesn't. I really hope this is fake.

I hope this game turns out grea. RFOM is one of my favorite games this gen. Gears is great and all, but no other game gives you the feeling of a large scale war like resistance does. Not even COD4 IMO. And 40player online is just freaking awesome :D. Try playing 1 hit sniper matches with 40 people....intense :D

They haven't released ANY weapon info really. Those are just models they will look at for inspiration. There will be a crazy number innovative weapons that are fun and balanced (just like Resistance 1... most creative useful FPS weapons ever).

No console game has offered this much as far a multiplayer goes. This is an insane ammount of gameplay modes and gameplay features!

TREAL_Since

So there is no reason to be excited by the first chart, then? Good we agree on one. I'm assuming we're agreeing on the third one, too, since you didn't mention it.

Oh, and I'm not sure that "no console game has offered this much" is true. In play modes, I can't say: First because I haven't played them all, and second because we need to know how different will all these modes be: If they're like Halo, where you might have 3-4 gamemodes that are essentially the same concept, then it's not very impressive. If they're all unique, then they might be on to something. As for "features", I can easily debunk this: Halo 3 has all the functionality seen in these design documents, except for "money", the "optional keyboard and mouse" and maybe "grudge match" (I say maybe because I don't know what they mean with it), but it has a couple things that this chart doesn't have.

[EDIT] Actually, there aren't as many gamemodes as I originally though. Most of the chart is taken by what seems to be a rather complex mode called "warfare", which does sound interesting, though I've seen similar things before.

Sounds pretty cool.

The last image shows that the singleplayer is only 5 hours and 30 minutes though.

Features not seen in Halo 3:
Bots/ Frag of the Day/ Online Tournaments/ Training/ Clans/ Grudge Matches/ K&M/ Money-Economy/ Clases/

Also if you read the explanation for the gameplay modes yuo will see that most of them aren't the same concept.

The only feature missing in Resistance 2 (according to these docs) is The Forge mode.

[QUOTE="-Serpahim-"]the weapons are too generic...imma havta call BS.tman93

Look at the Chimeran weapons. Thats where Insomniac gets creative.

EDIT: They arn't listed up there. Its only human weapons.....

Episode_Eve

Bots, clans, and clases aren't in halo, correct. I did mention clases was nothing new, though. Frag of the day is pretty much akin to bungie's favorites, online tournaments can be implemented in halo 3 through server-side playlists. Grudge matches, K&M and money I did mention in my post. Training is present in halo. I probably didn't put my argument through correctly. I first mentioned all that wasn't in Halo (though I did miss bots), and then pretty much wanted to say that everything else was standard in Halo. A small mistake on my part.

I amended my post with an edit because I had misread the table. Yes, the modes do seem different, but they're not many. I see only 6 of them, of which 2 are core modes, 2 are planned features, one is a "hopefully might be able to implement" and one is under "heavy prototyping", though this last one sounds like it's the most ambitious -and I did make note of that.

I see absolutely nothing special to call Resistance the deepest game out there. It's certainly ahead of the curve, but it's hardly unique.

And with a planned SP lenght of 5.5 hours.

Either those weapons are just place holders right now and Insomniac plans on replacing them with some of the crazy wild weapons they're known for, or I'll have to call fake. Also I'm not a big fan of class based multiplayer, honestly... :/

But otherwise, thats pretty awesome if real. :o

Needs more guns. Thats why CS and CSS are still such great games this many years after launch.

Oh, that and the rabid fanbase.

By then gaming will be dead, both 360 and PS3 martyrd like the DC, and all well have are minigame collections

So yes, the next installment will be called Resistance Part 23:cry:

That's impossible.

Cows have repeatedly claimed KZ2 would be the deepest, best console FPS ever.

This poking fun at cows for what they say 2 years ago is getting old. Lets try something new and original for once. You, Yellow_Rose, and Prid3r is not funny at all.

Louisiana -- All Your Base.... lol
