    It's not fair the way people are review bombing this game because they're angry that Capcom didn't include things in RE3 like merc mode or a longer story... separate devs made this game... this was outsourced, and you know what folks!? They did a pretty darn good job. I think this site, in terms of user reviews, has long since lost all credibility with the gaming community as a whole.

    En un mot : addictif ! J' y joue depuis plusieurs jours déjà en tant que survivant et y prends presque plus de plaisir qu' avec le jeu solo ! 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

    Great multiplayer game, graphic is good, sound is good, gameplay is awesome... It just need more balance and better server
    It's perfect for the rest

    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.

    The only problem this game has is the lack of crossplay. Everyone else complaining, I believe missed the point. They're trying too hard to relate it to past games, or other games entirely.

    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

    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!

    Thanks for reading,

    Very fun and interesting to play. Have been playing it over and over again. I'm so glad Capcom is trying new things like this, to keep fans happy. People have to understand that changes are sometimes good. The fact that you can play Resident evil with friends together is so cool. I also like the fact that you can be that the good guy or the bad guy. Hope they make more games like this. IVery fun and interesting to play. Have been playing it over and over again.

    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.
