Resistance 2 Coop in 2023 (Mini guide)

[servus99]

Hi there, 

Here are some tips and videos for getting all coop trophies except the 8 man trophy in solo offline coop. This will take a lot of time, you will have to complete 6 missions, about 10 times each to get all intel. So basically 60 missions which each take from 15 - 45 minutes per run.

 

Tips and tricks:

- Add a second account on your ps3, so the progress is saved for your second controller as well (Fun fact: Second profile will get all trophies as well, if you play one more mission after being done on your main acc, I recommend you play Axbridge for this as it is the shortest mission)

- For your main controller 1 profile pick Spec Ops, this class deals the most damage per second and can give itself ammo, use the Auger as secondary gun to give you unlimited shields which you can use for cover, also really abuse the secondary shots on the main marksman rifle, you can stay in cover, shoot out the balls and kill everyone without risk, upgrade fire rate and extended magazine early on to increase your fire power, also the armor that gives extra ammo regen, it lets you resupply yourself quicker, which speeds up everything

- For your controller 2 profile, remember to use a 2nd account to save progress, pick medic for an easy way to get to level 30 (xp boosting method see below), or if you play the missions just use Spec Ops as well to level it up a bit

- If you have some friend or family member to play with, then let them support you with medic while you shoot with Spec Ops, or play solo and leave second controller standing in safe spot, but move him to get better respawn points, as you spawn on him

- As far as I can see there are two parts that are impossible to do solo (maybe possible in 2 player coop, but I just played solo), these are: One of the two defenses in Bryce Canyon where the team cant die, and the one and only defense section on the last mission Holar, Iceland

- You have to get lucky to avoid getting a defense section, on Bryce Canyon it only shows up 20% of the runs, but on Holar Iceland it unfortunately shows up and kills more than 50% of all runs, which is bad

- I killed all elite enemies (trophy for 200 killed) with controller 1, but I dont think it matters

- other than that, just play play play, this can take 20-30h of active playtime

 

XP Boosting method (AFK Level 30 for both accs simultaneously):

- Use spec ops on controller 1, medic on controller 2, have spec ops throw ammo towards medic, while the medic shoots his R2 heal shot, so he picks up the ammo

- If you just want to level up the spec ops on controller 1, stand anywhere while doing this, you can fixate R2 with rubber band on the medic, but you will need to keep pressing L2 on the spec ops (or turbo controller)

- If you want to level up both, then restart chicago until you get the starting point with a bridge in front of you where 2 chimera are standing on, move the medic fully in cover, and place the spec ops slightly out of cover (right side top of the stairs leading down), now the spec ops will get hit and get healed by medic while the medic gets the ammo from spec ops. Doing this, you will have 99,999 points with medic in 2h and the spec ops in 4h, so you can leave it AFK for 2h if you like, and when you max the spec ops to lv30 for controller1, then medic will be max as well

This is cool, great work. Hopefully someone can figure out a way to get the 8-player trophy via LAN or xLinkKai.

That would be nice, also the same goes for the ranked trophies...

Amazing guide. At least Coop and Campaign can be done before it rests uncompleted on the shelf.

Yes. Intel in the coop mode just means you get 1 intel every time you finish a mission, so you must do each mission 10 times or so to get the 60 or so intel pieces.
