Resistance 3 will feature 16-player Human vs. Chimera deathmatch and objective-based modes set in locations across the globe, down from the 40 and 60-player mayhem in RFOM and R2.
James Stevenson, Insomniac Games Senior Community Manager, had this to say in regards to the multiplayer changes:
"Rest assured... our biggest motivation in determining our new player count was the fun times that we and the community had on maps like RFOM’s Busyard and Rooftops, as well as the Bayou House and San Francisco maps in Resistance 2."
Resistance 3 will offer a customizable progression system. Players will have the ability to create their own progression paths through multiplayer, spending their hard-earned points to customize loadouts that fit their unique playstyle. Each player can choose and level different support abilities – such as a Bubble Shield, Ammo Beacon (give ammo to teammates) or Radar Beacon (enhance your team’s radar). There are also tactical abilities you can use against your enemies, such as the Doppelganger (projects an image of you nearby to distract enemies) or Dash (an explosive burst of speed to evade enemy attacks).
