[Official] Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

Played a couple more games, I'm now ranked Major. With that I unlocked Tactician and they can use spawn grenades. Basically smoke grenades that let team mates spawn at that point. Pretty handy (Y)

<snipped>

Awesome to hear, I gotta start playing matches with you more if you do use the Tactician badge a lot.

There have been so many matches I've played where I had to run across the map just go kill the enemy.

Since no one had spawn grenades.

Damn, the Battle Replay on the killzone website is really damn cool.

In fact the whole damn site is impressive.

I have to say, it is a little discouraging that DM is already half way through ranking up if I am reading what he said correctly, as that seems really quick to me and I like incentive to keep playing a MP game. I have to say my first impression of playing is one of intrigue. I was not completely sold, but I definitely enjoyed myself and had fun, and see the potential for us all having fun playing together, so I think strictly based on that fact it will have a long life span, but again does seem very quick to fully rank up.

Yeah its stupidly fast/easy :(

Once you've unlocked the classes it's all about the ribbons/medals. I don't think there is any further unlocks (in terms of weapons) once you've got all the classes. That is what is most disappointing, especially when the standard rifle is the best one (at least imo). The other sub-machine guns control like ass and I'm not a fan of shotguns (n00b weapon). I only need 3 more weapons for the rifle man iirc.

So I'm with Antaris and hope they expand the ranking system.

I actually haven't played MP yet. Did get an hour of SP done though. I'll be online tonight if you guys are playing. Although the down side is that I don't have a headset. :s ..

I might be playing 2nite.......drop me a line if I'm on

I just got the game and will be ready to go in about 40 - 50 mins if anybody is around still. If not ill do a bit of solo multiplayer to get the feel of it till tomorrow when I can hopefully join you guys.

Tonight I will be without a mic but I will have one for tomorrow.

PSN account is Green_Eye_09

Munky add me as soon as possible please dude cos I cannot be arsed to go through this whole thread just

Oh, BTW man, congrats on the purchase. (Y)

And also since we are not friends yet, add me, DLDirtyLarry, as I can also send invites to people for the clan.

I played an hour of MP and haven't yet gotten used to the feel of the controls. I still came in first on my team however, although that's not saying much as my team sucked. Haven't won a match yet. My K/D is just under 1.00, though the very first game I really stunk. I hate how you start off with a crap weapon and no ammo.

^ hopes you get the game tomorrow because its amazing.

Ive played the first killzone and I knew when they made a 2nd killzone, I was going to be amazed but today i was overly amazed.

I checked out a copy and bought it over to a friends house and we played SP and MP, OMG, I love this game. I am getting a PS3 just for this game most likely by the impression it left on me. Also a blu ray player would be nice :).

Tried out MP last night. Really enjoyed it. I wish there were medics so they could revive me while i was down :p

However, there was one annoying thing with the interface where it would take 3 seconds or so to even update after i had pressed a button. Anyone else get this?

I won't be on much next week either - I have my last real exam on friday, so I gotta study for it... the fact that I haven't really paid attention in class somewhat contributes to that :p So I'll probably be online in the (CET-)evening for a couple of days - hopefully with some more gaming next weekend and the weeks after that :)

I don't think any of us are gonna be playing, the servers are down :laugh:

Back up.

So I've heard anyway.

I'll be on in an hour or two, gotta go do some shopping for tonight.

Rant... What ever idiot designed these controls should be shot. Having to hold down L2 to do anything is retarded. These controls are so bad, I can't even play more than 2 seconds of it without hating it. Lack of crouch, 10 control schemes that are pretty much the same with 1 or 2 buttons swapped.

    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
