Interview with Ted Price about Resistance 2: secrets still locked

Ted Price, main man behind Insomniac Games, talked with IGN for a bit about Resistance 2. While you won't hear much about the single-player adventure and all the mysterious features it supposedly has in store for us, he does speak about the 60-player online squad matches, the time setting for the game, details on the co-op mode, and some other stuff. Part of it is covered in the above interview, and we'll try to summarize the rest of interest from what was written down at IGN.

Interestingly, you have a radar that finds your "rival squads" -- people that have killed you the most online. This is cool because you can hunt them down. Conversely, you can form squads based on interests (age, hobbies, et cetera) so you can forge real friendships in and out of the game, which could lead to increased performance and whatnot while playing.

Co-op mode is "story light" -- not as many cinematics. With the class system, there's no auto-balancing, so if you're not careful (or particularly skilled), you might end up with a full party of Medics or something. You'll see lots of cars from the 1950's pop up, like Cadillac's or Thunderbirds. True secrets are kept pretty close to Price's heart, so you'll just have to wait for more information as Resistance 2 nears release.
