Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

Seb Downie, the QA manager at Guerilla Games explains the four difficulties in Killzone 2, over at the SCEA forums;

The difficulty system is not based on enemy counts, but more on damage modifiers and health. The health of you, your buddies and the various enemy types and the damage that all of you deal out. As the difficulty goes up, your ability to Run ?n Gun goes down. You?ll be spending more and more time ducking from cover and recharging. It becomes a lot more tactical and needs a bit more brainpower as you go up. The lower difficulty settings is more for folks who like to storm into rooms, guns blazing. Do that on the harder difficulties and you?ll get more than a black Recruitit

Let your girlfriend play this one, or your mom. Anyone caught playing this for any other reason than seeing if he can get through it blind-folded needs a open-handed sTrooperer

If you are new to FPSs, or haven?t played one since Doom, then you might want to start here. Will provide a challenge in pVeteraneran

Now we?re talking. This is your first playthrough. Hop to it Elite>Elite

(unlocked by completing the game once on any difficulty)

We up the anty a bit and remove your HUD and crosshair. Try that on for size, but don?t come crying to me if the big bad men with the orange goggles take you out back for a proper slapping.

I'm most likely going to be in Uni tomorrow when this gets put up on the store. Think I'll take my PSP to Uni and use remote play to start the download so it's ready for me coming home :p

Andy, you sound like a serial stalker! Plus you both have my Black SuperDry jacket! Discraceful!

Yeah but I have two, one leather and one army style, so therefore I'm better :p My army one has orange stitching too :heart: 360 colours ftw lol.

hey DM AB , if you meetup which i think is gonna happen all due to KZ . get a mugshot of you together. (AB , maybe u can try punching him just when it goes click :p )

Pfft, he'll be bowing down to me more like.

I was here first, both on NW and this planet :p

Can't wait to try the demo, what time of day will it be online?

Most likely around normal UK PSN update time (4-6pm). But no one really knows, just don't expect a 12:00am launch, it'll be sometime tomorrow during the day/early evening.

Typical, had to be on the day I'm in uni longest.

Ah well I have the next 4 days to pick it to pieces.

Same :pinch:

11am-4pm, I'll be home for about 5.30. By then the EU PSN will probably be choked with all the fake yank accounts :rofl:

Just seen the post about difficulty levels, Elite doesn't sound hard at all if thats the only changes. I play like that already on most FPS :laugh:

Yeah, most console FPS games with their generous "auto-aim" ;)

Well they also change health and damage modifiers etc, just taking away the Hud wouldn't really change much, lol.

Though How do we know how much ammo we have? or is there a display on the gun. O.o

I'm guessing you maybe don't?

In real life you wouldn't know :p

We'll see...

Wtf, you guys don't even listen to how many bullets you're firing in games? Pfft, noobs lol

I don't keep exact count, but I know when I'm low and if I have enough to get one more kill before a reload. I even bug AJ to reload on WaW :laugh:

Oh man can't wait to take you PS3 gamers on :p

Depends on the game, I can usually tell automatically, though that depends on if I have played the game before a good bit and how many kills I would usually get compared to difficulty etc.

Though I usually just reload after killing a bunch of enemies just in case I run into a bunch I didn't expect and am stuck reloading.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
