Terminator: Resistance


In November 2020, a free update included a new game mode called Infiltrator mode, allowing players to play as a T-800 infiltrator as it clears scavenger, resistance and Tech-Com patrols and hold-outs to locate an officer of the Resistance known as Daniel Ramirez.




Terminator: Resistance



On August 29, 1997, the military computer artificial intelligence defense network Skynet became self-aware and initiated a nuclear holocaust called Judgment Day.[a] In the decades that followed, Skynet became locked in a war to exterminate the surviving remnants of humanity. Meanwhile, pockets of human survivors organized themselves into a resistance military organization dedicated to the destruction of Skynet, led by John Connor.


In 2028, Jacob Rivers becomes the sole survivor of his Resistance unit that was deployed in Pasadena after a Terminator infiltrator's attack. While evading Skynet patrols, Jacob makes an alliance with a group of human civilian survivors composed of Jennifer and her surrogate brother Patrick, an elderly man named Ryan, scavenger Colin, and hospital nurse Erin. While gathering supplies for the survivors, Jacob meets up with a Tech-Com unit led by Commander Jessica Baron, and learns that she was forced to abandon his unit during the attack on Pasadena in order to minimize further resistance casualties. Recruited into Baron's unit, Jacob is tasked with carrying out reconnaissance missions in order to cripple Skynet. While carrying out his mission, Jacob is pursued by the Terminator infiltrator unit, and receives unexpected aid from an unidentified stranger. Convinced of the threat of the infiltrator unit, Baron provides shelter to the human civilians in Jacob's care. After suffering a sabotage in the Resistance defense systems, Rivers finally disables the infiltrator unit pursuing him.


Terminator: Resistance features multiple endings, which makes sense for a game set in a series with a multitude of timelines. Protecting your team of surviving resistance members will help dictate where the story goes.


While the main game does feature sequences in which the player fights alongside other resistance fighters, those soldiers are never given a real personality. The Annihilation Line DLC changes this by giving the player a handpicked squad of soldiers to fight alongside.


With him in this position, the player gets a chance to learn a bit more about his character and how he treats his fellow resistance members. They also get see what he was doing in the days leading up to the first Terminator film.


Story wise, Terminator: Resistance Annihilation Line delivers a fun and nostalgic experience that keeps with the tone of the original movies. The synopsis is rather simple: something happened to the resistance base in Northridge, and John Conner has handpicked a special team to figure out what.


John Connor orders protagonist Jacob Rivers to assist in the investigation of Northridge Outpost, a civilian settlement that's gone mysteriously silent. Rivers and a small team of resistance soldiers led by Kyle Reese then head beyond the Annihilation Line to work out what's going on.


Those who have played Terminator: Resistance will undoubtedly mention weapon imbalance as one of the core flaws of the game, yet many will also admit they don't care. You're stuck with traditional ballistic weaponry for the first few hours before getting your hands on the coveted plasma rifle, which changes the nature of combat. Resistance doesn't toss all the guns out with the bathwater, though. It fuses plasma rifle tech into carbines, machine guns and other weapons in an attempt to upgrade them. This does make sense from a movie-centric standpoint. In the first Terminator film, Kyle Reese expressed doubt that he could destroy the pursuing T-800 with regular weaponry, so it only stands to reason that the human resistance would mass-adopt plasma rifle technology to fight back against a future SkyNET. From a gameplay standpoint however, it whittles away any remaining challenge.


So, with the release of the upgraded PS5 version, as well as the DLC Annihilation Line with a standalone campaign to boot, developers Teyon are hoping to give the game a new lease on life. Unfortunately for them, like the human resistance against the Terminators, they have failed once again.


Luckily there is a ragtag bunch of resistance misfits taking part in this quest, and Kyle Reese, together with Ferro, Evans, and the player, pack a serious punch as a dysfunctional quartet. Ferro and Evans are both seen very briefly in the original Terminator movie, although it's fair to say that Annihilation Line doesn't do much to bring much to the characters outside of typical tropes. Reese, too, isn't built on much beyond the character template provided by the movie franchise, which feels a little like a missed opportunity.


Terminator: Resistance is a first-person shooter with RPG's elements. It was developed by Polish studio Teyon Games and it is set in post-apocalyptic Los Angeles. As a Jacob Rivers, lead the human resistance through dangerous and devastating parts of America and fight against robotic killing machines. It is based on popular Terminator franchise, so if you have ever watched Terminator, definitely check this game out!


The action scenes, which is to say, 90 percent of the movie, involve Armageddon between men and machines 10 years in the future. The film's most cheerful element is that they've perfected artificial intelligence so quickly. Yes, Skynet is self-aware and determines to wipe out humankind for reasons it doesn't explain. A last-ditch resistance is being led by John Connor, or "J.C." for you Faulkner fans.


There is nothing visible in this world but a barren wasteland. No towns, no houses, no food, no farms, no nothing. Maybe they live on Spam. The resistance is run from a submarine commanded by Gen. Ashdown (Michael Ironside), who wants to destroy Skynet and all of its human POWs. Connor, who is not even human, vows to save them. Wait. That's Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington), the guy from the past, who looks so much like Connor that maybe he only thinks he's Wright. Marcus is a convicted murderer from the past, awakened from cryogenic sleep.


The story of Resistance has no connection to the events of the new Terminator movie, Dark Fate, but it's clearly released to benefit from Sarah Connor's return to the big screen. Rather than being set in the late 1990s, in the immediate aftermath of Judgment Day, it casts us as resistance fighter Jacob Rivers in the year 2028 - the year before John Connor sends Kyle Reese back to 1984 to save his mother, and a reprogrammed Arnie to save his younger self in 1995. 041b061a72
