Resistance 3 | No Spoilers

Platform: Playstation 3
Release Date: September 6, 2011
Developer: Insomniac Games
Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment

Plot[/center]

The game will not follow the main protagonist of the previous two games, Nathan Hale. Instead, it will follow the story of Joseph Capelli, who was introduced in the previous installment, Resistance 2. The game takes place in 1957, 4 years after the events of Resistance 2, where Capelli has since started a family with former protagonist's, Nathan Hale's, stepsister, Susan. The Chimera have since become the dominant race in the world, while the surviving humans have turned to cannibalism due to a lack of food. Around 90% of humanity has been eradicated.

The game begins with Capelli who is living with his wife and child in Haven, Oklahoma, an underground human outpost. On August 9, 1957, Dr. Fyodor Malikov turns up to ask Joseph for one last favor, which is to help destroy the wormhole created in New York City after the Chimeran Fleet was wiped out on June 26, 1953. Soon afterwards, a Chimeran Death Squad finds out Haven and attacks the town. Capelli and the other residents fight off the Chimera, in which he subsequently decides to follow Malikov to New York.

One of the Chimeran goals seems to be to open a wormhole. To where is unknown, but it is presumably to their home planet.


Resistance 3 features 16 player competitive online multiplayer with both deathmatch and objective-based modes. It also includes a customizable progression system where players spend points earned by playing online to unlock customized loadouts that include various tactical and combat attributes. There is also a co-operative mode where players can team up to play through the story mode either online or split-screen. Unlike in Resistance 2, there will be no 8 player co-op. The multiplayer maps are set in locations around the world such as the Fort Lamy prison in the Republic of Chad, Africa; a Trainyard in Bogoto, Columbia; a seaside map set in Wales, and Alice Springs, Australia. Some of these maps are not included in the story mode.

the feel is in the middle of rfom and r2 has both of its traits its like the evil child of it. They still need to fix a few items... Carbine is to weak, shotgun is way to good, the invisible perk chimera get is way to good cant even see them at all, spawns are eh easy to spawn camp

Firstly i would like to thank you for posting to help get this active, secondly i agree with everything you said. The game is really good its better then i expected.

better than i expected as well, i was thinking it was going more towards R2 but now after playing it i think it is in the middle and almost its own game. I think the graphics seem better than both RFoM and R2. The R2 qualities it has are eh i wasn't a fan of the berserks and a few in this game seem a little to good like invisibility

Yeah the berserks are kinda gay, i wish there was no killstreaks in the game too but whatever they arent that powerful.. the auger is a beast but you have it for a short time ..

The graphics are better, but i still like the scale of characters in RFoM, what i mean is how much bigger the characters were on your screen, and i dont like that chimera and humans are the same size still.. but the game is its own game not a carbon copy of cod like R2 was.

yea killstreaks arent that bad at all just not into them its hard to get auger and mutant but the 3 kill streaks are WAY to good imo.

I liked the feature RFoM had with chimera can see threw ways but will be seen on radar and humans can run without being seen.

They completely got rid of that trait the chimera had!

Yeah i know, i dont understand why it was a cool idea.. but i think they got rid of it because of overheating but overheating is how they kept their strength in the first one in check so they werent overpowered.

It was before its time, too bad IG tried to copy other games and lost their identity in R2, but R3 is back on track.

yea no doubt. got rid of a few weapons and brought new ones in... i wish they didnt nerf the carbine and sniper. So much different to snipe in R3 doesnt feel like a resistance game

Agreed i dont like the sniper scope or how fast the sniper rifle can shoot, i liked the pause between shots that 1 had.

yea they i think eliminated sniping basically. Its not the same its harder to get headshots because of how the characters are..

also going to miss making my own person not sure if they completely took that out because it is jsut a beta

Again i agree with this, i like actual character customization that 1 (and i think 2 had? not sure i forget).. i mean ill take picking a skin because its better then most games but i prefer my own customization.

You know how it has no scope at first? i wonder if i upgrade it fully can i use it without the scope anyway because i like it with the iron sights better.

yeah they need to make the invisible guys become less transparent while moving like halo does. In Reach the faster you walk the more visible you become, but also when you get close to a invisible enemy your radar scrambles so you know theres an invisible guy around so it helps prevent camping.
