I started playing the Resistance 2 Beta last night and stayed up till about 3 o'clock in the morning it was that fun. First it took about one hour to download (but I really can't complain) and then I quickly went to join a game of co-op campaign and started to play as a solider. Then about 3 minutes into the game people were yelling for ammo and for health so I switched into a medic which I surprisingly liked. In most team based games (for example Team Fortress 2) I felt being some one like a medic was a chore but it really feels fun in this game. I quickly unlocked a Machine Gun for my medic class as a secondary weapon and even though I was playing the same level about 14 times I really liked it. Now lets talk about the classes: first there's the solider your typical heavy character with a Chain Gun and your secondary fire was a shield that you could shoot through but your opponents could not. Now your special for the solider class (lets call them a perk) I think is called "Iron Heart" makes damage done to you less, so if you were getting attacked it would do 50% less damage. Second there's the Medic (my personal favorite) the weapon the medic has is like a life drainer, the primary fire shoots a beam that sucks up the enemy's health and stores it in your gun. The secondary fire shoots a green ball and coming upon contact of a friendly heals them. The medic's perk is a large circle were any one inside it gets healed. Last but not least is the special-ops, the weapon is a burst fire (3 shots in case your dumb)Machine Gun and the secondary fire is a ball that attacks multiple enemy's. The perk is advanced ammo (by the way special-ops can give out ammo).
Well co-op puts you and 7 other people against overwhelming odds, the Beta level puts you in some lumber factory (outdoor) but can get very hard when everyone is spread apart (and you well get spread apart). Well I've had fun and I would like to thank Sony for giving me a Beta code (I'm not special or anything i'm sure most of you have one). Ok thanks for reading and I can't wait to review/play this game.
