  1. The time sync issue was fixed with the update of playtv, so you need to find a way to hook your ps3 up to the net and update it.

    Thanks, looks like ill have to hook it up at a relatives house.

    Does anyone know if you have to have playTV hooked up to an antenna when updating?

  2. FInally got my playTV from UK today, very happy except for one small issue,

    The EPG is set to GMT+0:00 (9.5 hours out of sync for SA) and cannot be changed (even by changing the ps3 system clock).

    Just wondering if anyone else has this issue, or if it has been fixed with an update.

    Unfortunately for me, i cannot get broadband where i am, so it looks like i'll be sitting on version 1.00 for a while :(

  3. I think 2 players wouldnt be nearly as fun or as functional as you said mate. It doesnt really work unfortunately. Its sucks you dont have broadband, I was online last night with 4 and then 8 players co-op and with a mixture of classes it works really well. Im Yet to play multiplayer competitive but imagine with 60 players its going to be nuts! No chance on getting hooked up to the net?

    The only reason i dont have broadband is cause of my location.

    Can only get wireless with a usb modem, which i dont think can hook up via ethernet to the ps3 very easily (if at all)

    In co-op im up to Orick (location 2) and ive only done 6 out of 61 missions.

  4. Can someone help me out?

    I only just started co-op (offline, i dont have broadband) and im finding it incredibly boring and hard.

    Its not because me or player 2 suck (i completed the campaign on normal (8h 36m) and difficult (8h 36m also))

    After realising the campaign difficulty also affects the co-op difficulty (had it on superhuman: all chimera have bullseye mk2) i changed it to casual, but it was only a tiny bit easier.

    Chosing a medic and soldier leaves the soldier out of ammo and defenceless

    Soldier and Special ops leaves you vunerable if you take damage

    and special ops and medic is ok until enemies come at you.

    Co-op is meant to be played with at least 3 people (hence 3 classes) so why did the developers put in 2player co-op.

    I mean its good that they put it in there, better than nothing, but i would have thought they would subsequently make it a bit easier, seeing as youre down on numbers.

    Can someone give advice or tell me how they do it.

    Currently the only way that works is choosing any classes, but have one person always stay way behind, out of the way while the other does all the work.

    This way there is less chance that both people will die at the same time and fail.

    Its slow, boring and not co-operative but its the only way that works for me.

    Help please

  5. Yeah the games good. Bought it on Friday finished it 2day. Its harder than part 1 I think. However i liked part 1 storyline better.

    Took me 8.5 hours to finish on normal, now playing on hard.

    However, I felt it was easier than resistance 1. Maybe because last time i played #1 I was finishing superhuman.

    Number 2s storyline is more outrageous and mythical than #1, which was more mysterious.

    Dont know if i like the cliffhanger/twist ending though, so much is left unanswered.

  6. I got is yesterday night, Ive only played it for 2 hours, but its really good.

    locpender: it is much more like halo than the first resistance.

    Resistance 1 tried to be very realistic and conservative, but resistance 2 goes all out.

    The enemies are way more sci-fi, theres a better team atmosphere and the levels are very varied

    Massive ships float above you and huge battles go on.

    Also, you swap weapons sort of like in Halo (although i havent played halo much)

    All in all its a great game so far, much more fun, I think, than the first.

    EDIT: got it for $88 at bigW

  7. Hey everyone, I got an email today from news@uk.playstationmail.com with a redemption/voucher code for Home.

    I don't know if they're rare or not but seeing as how I don't have broadband, I wont be able to use it.

    It expires on the 1st of December.

    Also, I dont know if other people can use this code, but if you want it, the first post on this topic will get it PMd to them.

  8. I've been reading around the web and I'm seeing a lot of reports of people saying firmware 2.41 has stuffed up their Ps3.

    Sony claimed that 2.40 caused a 'limited number' of problems for users, so they pulled it straight away

    Yet 2.41 seems to be causing more than a 'limited number' of problems, and its still available for download

    What's going on? Post details here if 2.40 or 2.41 has stuffed up your system and what the problem is

  9. from playasia

    "Version US

    ESRB Mature

    Titles rated M (Mature) have content that may be suitable for persons ages 17 and older. Titles in this category may contain intense violence, blood and gore, sexual content and/or strong language. "

    so is this the uncensored version or not, i thought it would be R18+ in the US

    , or dont they have that rating

  10. I can't wait to get into the meat and potatoes of the narrative, and actually do some networking (speaking of: haven't even tried the game's 'intranet' yet... as I said, scratching the surface doesn't begin to cut it ;) ).

    looking forward to that parody filled intranet

    btw, two questions

    1 what version are you playing (ps3/360 , uncensored/censored)

    EDIT: should have read that earlier post, censored 360 version, right?

    2 have you discovered any form of offline multiplayer

  11. No problem at all mate, glad it worked well for you!! I also had no problem with the screws; I was extremely careful with screwdriver selection and pushing quite hard when undoing them.

    Agreed. I found the screws quite easy to unscrew, but it is easy to see that the wrong screwdriver could quite easily strip them.

  12. I am thinking of buying this game of Playasia.

    Is there anything i should know before ordering it from Playasia, such as (PAL etc). Im not fussed about the censorship in the Australian copy. im just buying it from there coz its cheaper, I just dont wanna be region locked to multiplayer online play with mates who have bought the Aussie version.

    Cheers

    Hash

    are you talkin bout the 360 or PS3 version

    as far as im concerned the ps3 version has no region code issues (i hope)
