    Because of this poor game, Resident Evil 3 is the worst project ever. Capcom need's to stop to try this generic game types and think about Outbreak Remaster.

    They half-assed Resident Evil 3 Remake because of this, a side game that no one asked Capcom to make.
    They could've easily focused solely on making RE3R, and then a few months later release a full co-op mercenaries mode or better yet, make a new outbreak title.

    It's just not good. I would have preferred to pay 40 for Re3 alone, this didn't add any value to the overall package. Could have easily released this by itself or with a new resident evil. I go less of a game I wanted to get something I really didn't care for.

    El juego está roto. Yo se que tiene mucho del estilo de los juegos de Viernes 13, Dead by daylight y todo eso, pero es que o es injusto o aburrido.
    Si alguien se pilla a William Birkin la partida se acaba en nada de dos guantazos. El mapa es estrecho y en vez de dar terror, parece artificial. Un muy mal juego.

I really wanted to play this after seeing others play the beta, but, just like playing Call of Duty for the first time in 2020, everyone else has played the game so much that they know exactly what to do.

    My theory is that the game was cancelled even before the launch with RE3. If we pay attention, everything that came with updates is content that was already made, but kept off the game to use as update later, to give it some extra life through the year. +

    Even though Resident Evil Outbreak is a PS2 game , the game had better and much more realistic gameplay mechanics than this year's Resident Evil Resistance. Too shame they wasted their time and resources for this mediocre game.

    Haven't been hooked on a game Ina while but this multiplayer is insanely fun. Majorly playing as Valerie currently rank 21 and rank 20 as Spencer. The dead by daylight comparisons are there in terms of 1 killer vs multiple survivors but that's where the similarities end as i dbd immediately bored me. On the other hand this is what dbd couldn't do correctly. Haven't even touched campaign at all.

    As of writing this, it's the 4th, the day after the games official release. I haven't ran into connectivity issues, I find games fast and easily, both as a Mastermind and a Survivor. The connectivity issues people are facing seem to be based on the beta, but they're forgetting that the beta is literally a test before the game is even finished. You shouldn't judge anything that isn't fully finished. Now that the game has been officially released, it works much better.

    THIS GAME IS NOT RE OUTBREAK.
    A lot of people were sort of hoping it would be like Resident Evil Outbreak, two games for the ps2 that took advantage of the primitive online play at the time. It was essentially a Resident Evil game, but with friends. This game is not that. With the addition of the Mastermind, it becomes an objective based asymmetric multiplayer horror game. You have set objectives in a set order. First is find the puzzle pieces, second is kill the security guard and use his key card to unlock terminals, and third is to destroy red cores. Because of this, it's also nothing like Dead by Daylight, which I've seen a lot of people compare it to. Personally, I think this game is better than DbD, and, on playstation, at least, has much less connection issues and glitches. The gameplay itself is fundamentally different, and anyone who says otherwise has obviously not played Resistance.

    The game is a ton of fun. It's a bit balanced in the favor of the mastermind, but I don't really care that much because I have a blast fighting back anyway. The imbalance doesn't really show too much until the last segment, where you have to destroy the bio cores. Since you're essentially locked in a giant room, it makes the mastermind very powerful. I think making the cores weaker, or allowing them all to be attacked at once could really help balancing.

    The final point I'd like to make is that this is essentially a free game, all you need to do is buy resident evil 3, which many of us were going to do anyway, and you get this fun game mode on top of it. They easily couldve released them separately, each for full price, or made resident evil 3 full price, and resistance a free to play game, and either way, both options arent great. Given how short RE3 is, I'm personally very satisfied that Capcom decided to give us a whole other game to go with it to really make the 60$ price tag worth it.    … Expand

Beginning players will find it frustrating: starting out at level 1 and getting matched with a room full of level 50 players meant I spent the majority of the round wiggling my sticks after the survivors decimated my cameras and rolled any monster I could put out with seemingly unlimited miniguns. Playing as a survivor yielded the same result, meaning no matter what you play as you're not going to have much fun. Anybody sticking with the game long enough to level up won't find themselves rewarded, either; the repetitive nature of the game and the small selection of maps will quickly wear out anyone who has made it that far.

    Resistance is a great multiplayer 4v1 experience where 1 person is the mastermind behind all the zombie placements and the other 4 people are survivors who have to perform a series of tasks in order to escape, there are 3 areas which must be hastily completed before the timer runs out. Teamwork is an understatement in this game, players must help one another through or failure is imminent.Resistance is a great multiplayer 4v1 experience where 1 person is the mastermind behind all the zombie placements and the other 4 people are survivors who have to perform a series of tasks in order to escape, there are 3 areas which must be hastily completed before the timer runs out. Teamwork is an understatement in this game, players must help one another through or failure is imminent. Solo queuing can sometimes make this a difficult task, however if solo queuing isn’t your thing then taking control over the mastermind is so much fun, trapping people in rooms whilst you take control over a zombie and rip them to shreds!

    Customisation on loadouts is big in resistance, levelling up each character requires points earned from playing which results in unlocking the ability to equip more skills to your characters. There is also a lot of cosmetic items aswell, which you can get via opening cosmetic crates using earned points and completing daily/weekly challenges etc. As of now the only micro-transactions in the game are rp/xp boosters, however points are given quite generously post game so no need to go spending cash on this. There is no pay to win feature.

    VERDICT: You’ve gotta appreciate this game for what it is, there are little to no bugs and the game has only just been launched which is impressive now days, characters and masterminds all feel balanced and playing with friends is a whole lot of fun. Especially in custom games if you have a full lobby of the gang online.

    The only problem I have with the game at the moment is it can take a while to find people to play with, whether this is due to a low amount of players actually playing the game or not I don’t know, sometimes you can find a match in 20 seconds and sometimes it can take 3-5 minutes, other than that the game is excellent in my opinion. It’s almost like a short and sweet spin off of Dead by daylight/left 4 dead. I don’t understand why resistance isn’t better received by gamers, some people just need to give it a chance, how can anyone complain when it’s essentially a free game as Capcom could’ve sold Resident Evil 3 as a lone game for the same price and people would’ve still bought it!

    RE resistance is a good time for a short time that I think would truly be great with a group of friends. The game pits survivors and a mastermind against each other both played by players. The survivors play like typical resident evil characters all having their own special abilities like hacking the masterminds cameras, temporary unlimited ammo and a aoe healing ability.

The game pits survivors and a mastermind against each other both played by players. The survivors play like typical resident evil characters all having their own special abilities like hacking the masterminds cameras, temporary unlimited ammo and a aoe healing ability. The survivors need to collect key items in each area to advance with their being three areas in total per map. The Mastermind has a set of camera from which he can observe the survivors from as well as set traps such as mines, zombies and other creatures including an ultimate monster depending on which mastermind your playing. The mastermind are given a deck of card that include the above items and where you apply them creates a strategic gameplay style that was fun to mess around with. The goal of the survivours to escape all three areas by beating all the objects within the time limit and the mastermind has to stop them from doing so. The actions of each faction increases or decreases the time which means a well placed monster can change the tide quickly if the survivors aren't careful. Playing as the survivors gives you new micro sized RE areas to explore that I honestly enjoyed exploring and the structure of being able to buy stuff based on performance gave me strong COD zombies vibes which is rarely a bad thing. Overall this game was enjoyable and not the afterthought I assumed it was.… Expand

    I gave this a 3 because I think they have a great idea and gameplay seems good, but the game is incredibly difficult for survivors. It’s not at all balanced and you will quickly find that out in first few matches. The menu navigation is horrible and you will likely find it confusing to invite friends and get in a match. Also, the perks are not well explained and pretty much useless whenI gave this a 3 because I think they have a great idea and gameplay seems good, but the game is incredibly difficult for survivors.

Also, the perks are not well explained and pretty much useless when zombies have to be shot 10 times in face to kill them. This only makes the experience worse when you only have a few minutes per section to clear. I really think this game would benifit from not having such a short time limit. Resident evil has never been about rushing so why make the multiplayer a rush experience? I’m at a loss for words and feel like this was a missed opportunity.… Expand

    Really quite a terrible mess of a game. Hitboxes are poorly implemented, a large number of hits with both melee and firearms simply wont register. The majority of matches will be with masterminds who are lagswitching making the game unplayable for survivors. Voting. Repetitive. Avoid at all costs.

    I did not expect this game to be good. I doubt anyone did with RE multiplayer game track record.

I doubt anyone did with RE multiplayer game track record.
    Most people at best thought REsistance will be some dinky multiplayer mode on the side, tacked on like some included on disk small dlc. It's not. Instead we're talking full fledged AAA spare no expense production values type of a game that a lot of love went into, with typical multiplayer replayability and gameplay depth. If you get hooked hours will fly by. Each area has tons of unique art assets none feel copy pasted, varied zombies well animated creatures, quite a lot of voice acting (surprisingly for this type of game) from the masterminds and survivors that is fantastically written with fitting voice delivery. During my time with the game I went from who are these clowns to I want a Resident Evil campaign game with them. Part of that is due to plentiful great one liners that get thrown during the match and part how team dependent the game is. You'll start appreciating these characters a lot more when they are saving you and you are working together. Players playing the characters well in a team game creates appreciation which bleeds to the characters themselves, and this game does it masterfully. Teamwork is paramount as survivors, you go lone wolf at inappropriate time, which is most of the time, you get shredded in high rank games. You are completely dependent on the mercy and experience of the other three people. Game is set up that even decent mastermind(think dungeon master) has advantage over a lone survivor. There are still plentiful times when people feel like the superstars, but everyone needs to work together to give you that moment. And moments you will experience.

    REsistance is incredibly good at creating numerous OH S&#%! situations and close calls that can go either way. I don't care how often it happens, any time I just barely squeeze through the door to supply room with bioweapon right on me I'm glad I don't have a bladder problem. In this game some supply rooms don't have doors too. Short story shorter, when you run into the wrong one, calming music or not, you are gonna get your ass beat to the soundtrack right in front of the item box by the player controlled Tyrant, murder city style. It goes without saying game doesn't stop when you open the map either. RE2 this is not.

    Now for a cringy dark souls reference. You know how when you beat a boss in fromsoftware game it feels really great, unless you invite other people and slap it silly with barely any satisfaction because boss fights are best to be experienced solo in souls games? Well, REsistance is ideally designed to give you that rush you get when playing souls solo, but with a team. Against human controlled boss.

    I wrote ideally designed, because right now about one in maybe even ten games fit that description for me, the other nine times it is either slaughter or slap(kick?) the mastermind silly go around. I have no idea how a game in 2020 that cost millions of dollars to develop has no proper match making build-in to adjust for player skill and knowhow, a decision which in turn completely sabotages the health of the game. You can be matched with god tier mastermind as four newbies who get lost in starting supply room, in a game where team work is essential. It doesn't even take four, a single player who doesn't measure up is a huge liability. I've been in many games where we have three people getting pummeled at the exit wasting precious saved up time just waiting for some guy that is on the other side of the map, maybe this time trying to hit that crazed marathon running zombie dog that's been pestering him for minutes. (spoiler: he dies to it shorty.)

    Let me make this perfectly clear. There are no words in English language to describe the arse whoop down you will receive from mastermind when you start playing this game as a filthy noob right now. Survivors can win a match in ~15 minutes, but you can also be in unrecoverable situation in under 60 seconds instead, leading to a loss right at the start. Match after match. I have no doubt there are people who uninstalled this game without getting anywhere in it. It is a testament of how good it can get, that can I can sit through unbalanced matches so I can finally get a game with people near my skill level where this game shines. I feel very fortune that I know and was part of these games because if I started playing late I probably would have shelved the game too. The problem with lack of match making has only gotten worse since the six weeks title been out. People were disappointed with scripted nature of Nemesis in RE3MAKE, Capcom overcompensated and now as of latest patch we have the strongest bioweapon in the game that can go almost everywhere. Rank 1 Nokolai mastermind decimates entire teams with it.

    There have been multiplayer RE games before, most weren't that great to put it politely.

Les maps sont sympa , pas trop grandes et les personnages deviennent de plus en plus fun à mesure que l on monte en niveau ( conseil pour les nouveaux : restez groupés ;))je me réjouis de voir arriver de nouveaux emplacements et tester MM

    Yes, it has major network issues with serious lag and long MasterMind queue times, and there are gamplay balance problems, but honestly I just love playing it. It has a fun charm to it and even just playing it solo-queuing I am having a blast. All the survivors are fun to play and have unique charm to them too. At least give it a go, I feel it is worth it

    Overall, the game is fun and a worthy addition to the Resident Evil franchise. All it needs is a couple of tweaks and a dedicated fan base, and it could become one of the more popular Resident Evil games purely because of its endless replayability and fun factor.

    With a refined matchmaking system (and rewards to go with it), as well as a balanced set of character classes and improved monster control, it could be a sleeper hit for many. For now, though, it feels like a missed opportunity. The fact it's bundled with a fantastic 5-star game in the form of Resident Evil 3 Remake, certainly helps. But as a standalone product, it's a fun but ultimately flawed experience; albeit one we hope improves in time.

    Resident Evil Resistance is wildly inconsistent. There are great ideas buried underneath abysmal balancing, annoying technical issues, and matchmaking woes. Playing as series icons like William Birkin and Mr. X is an appreciated novelty, but the routine objectives make playing as the survivors tiresome. With enough love and care, hopefully Resistance’s better ideas can rise to the surface, but right now there’s still a lot of work to be done.
