Insomniac today detailed the forthcoming Aftermath map pack and the large 1.50 patch so without further ado here it is:

The DLC comes in two forms: new competitive multiplayer maps and character skins. The Aftermath Map Pack features three new battlefields, two set in Twin Falls (Aftermath and Pit Stop) and another in Orick (Outpost). All of the maps support 20-player Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch, while Outpost also lets you play 20-player Core Control. The Aftermath Map Pack will be available for download through the PlayStation Store for 3.99.

We also have six new competitive multiplayer character skins. In addition to our usual band of brothers (of the human, Cloven, and Chimeran variety), we even have two selections for our female R2 players. You can download the following skins through the PlayStation Store for 0.69 each: Rachael Parker, Female Soldier, Ravager, Cloven (Retribution model), Ranger Variation, and Black Ops Variation.

Then we have patch 1.50, or what some on the MyResistance.net forums have been calling the “the big patch.” And it definitely lives up to that nickname—it’s quite substantial. Once you install the patch (the download prompt will come up automatically once you start R2), you’ll now be treated to:

Meltdown Mode: We’ve read the message-board comments. We’ve seen the online petition. You want it? You got it! Patch 1.50 brings back Meltdown, the popular Resistance: Fall of Man multiplayer mode in which each team attempts to gain control of the map by capturing beacons.

Superhuman Co-op Mode: Does your eight-man Specter squad possess the skills to survive this all-new difficulty? It features stronger enemies and disables auto-respawning (only another squadmate can revive you), but dishes out bigger rewards (double the Grey Tech and XP per round).

Second PSN Login Support: Your fellow couch potato can now save their character’s multiplayer progress, thanks to the added option to log in with two unique PSN accounts.

But that’s really just the beginning of patch 1.50’s offerings:

XP balance adjustments for competitive mode
Announcements screen
Failsafe save support
Password protected custom games
Added ability to “Report” player
Teams switch sides between Core Control rounds
Players now automatically go to staging after every competitive or cooperative game (regame)
Localization updates
Various stat fixes
Collision fixes on Bryce Canyon and Holar Tower cooperative levels
New leaderboards
Map fixes for competitive Chicago level
Games with Friends and Clan members in them are now highlighted in the “Find Game” screen
Limited late joining has been added to ranked games
Deathmatch spawning has been improved
Players can’t earn progress towards Berserks when they are dead
Reduced sprint speed of core carrier in Core Control games
Cooperative XP bonuses have been increased by 30%
Cooperative games respawn time is now 20 seconds
Players keep their grenades if they get revived in a cooperative game
Players now have a “Join Game” option for players on their friends list
A player’s own name is now in white in the obituary text
New Medals

SCEE’s Jekyll and Hyde nature rears its head in yesterdays update once again. The good see FIFA’s Ultimate Team and trophy update go live and Rockstar’s South Central update for Midnight Club: Los Angeles which adds a whole new district to the games map. The classic Silent Hill makes a surprise appearance, Helgahst invades LBP and Power-Up Forever - a shoot-em-up from Namco crosses the pond. But… Unreal’s Titan pack was left out which has enfuriated Epic who weren’t told a thing despite it being on the US update later in the day (see their forums for details), due for us europeans next week apparently (grrrrrrrrr). The Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 demo didn’t show either so will probably be in next weeks update (if you can’t wait grab it from the US store, its worth it)

Can’t live without your PSN details? Feel the need to post them all over internet forums?

Well happy days for you because as we told you earlier, EU trophy cards or Portable ID’s as they like to call them are available for you at the official eu/uk playstation sites. Head over there and sign in with your PSN details, click a few boxes and you can create a shiny purple ID badge with your trophy count so you can show off your platinums, or lack of, to the world.

EA’s monster RTS (Real-Time Strategy to non geeks!) Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is due to be released later this month and the kind folk over there have decided to drop us a demo which will hit the PSN this coming Thursday.

I know the EnjoyPS3 crew are big fans of the C&C games so will no doubt be all over this like a bad rash!

Popped killzone in lately?  of course you have, so i guess youve alredy updated to the new 1.20.  What does it do yo might ask? well :

  • Boost — We’ve identified and fixed the bug to do with the boost medal not being awarded. It will go into a patch we are working on at present, but there is a workaround in the mean time to get it. Simply ensure that you are the Game Creator rather than client and you’ll be awarded it.
  • Network Errors/Honor Ranks — We are also looking at fixing a good bunch of the network errors and are looking into the complaints about the Honor Ranks as well as a couple of other bits and pieces. We’ll provide a list of fixes when we are close to releasing the patch.
  • Bots — We’re working on a permanent solution for the bots stat padding and have some internal solutions that we’re going to work on implementing. We’ll let you know what those are when we’ve got the patch together and the solution implemented. We will NOT be wiping ALL stats and padders will be looked at individually by the moderators.
  • www.kz.com — www.killzone.com is being sorted out today to deal with the massive traffic it’s been facing and hope to have some long-term solutions in place shortly. The stats are currently empty on the site and will be repopulated today.
  • Controller Issues — We have not stopped looking into the complaints and will see what we can do about it. Any possible changes will have to be carefully implemented and tested before being deployed though.
  • Charge disarming — We have identified the issue where sometimes the C4 charge in Search and Destroy will not disarm. Will be fixed with the next update.
  • Shotgun Aim Assist — Investigating the problem and will patch it up.
  • Clan Games — Sometimes the clan that does not turn up for a match is awarded the win under specific circumstances. Will be patched ASAP.
  • Battle Replay for Map 8 - Corinth Crossing — The BR on www.killzone.com is not quite right and will be fixed soon.
  • Ignore list — Was found not to be functioning correctly. Will be fixed in the next patch.
  • Crashes — Crash when using Saboteur disguise in certain situations. Will be fixed in the next patch. Infrequent crash when trying to start a game with an empty game name. Will be fixed soon.
  • Medic/Assassination — There is an issue with the Assassination target HUD icon displaying when playing as a Medic. Investigating and will be fixed.

Phew, i hope that stops some of you crying on about these problems that have now been fixed!  There was a auto aim?  lololol, where has that been all my life?  Well its off to frag some more fools.  See you on the battle field.

Mar 3

So all you geeks who are at work or on holiday just cant help to know what your currunt amount of Golds are, or how many do you need on that great new game you just brought (it better be KZ2) ?

Well those good folks at Sony have came up with the solution.  Although in the real early stages (like an hour or so) you can already see what games and trophies you have to brag to mr one Bronze that you are the better gamer.  Head on over HERE to see waht the crack is!

Helgaust are the rulers of this world, how dare the ISA try and test the EP3 clan?

Bloooooooody love this game.  The multiplayer is unlike anything else and full admiration goes to Guerilla games for bringing this master piece home to the PS3.

If your finding it trickt then dont threat, your not the only one!  But trust us and stick with it and you will soon be a headshot master before you know it.

Take a look at the flow chart below to see what goodies you get for doing the specific tasks ingame.

Just became a general myself and am now trying to get those cheeky combinations going.

Fancy joining EPS clan?  Well youll have to prove it first by adding us to your PSN and then come and battle with us.  We may not be the best, but where damn good and will give anyone a run for there money.
