[Official] Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

As long as your team actually pays attention to what game type they are supposed to be playing.

PSN is full of n00bs, which I've found out a lot the past 24hrs. The VIP's in Assassination have never heard of the word "cover" before (N)

haha most the guys in my team thought the best way to defend themselves in VIP was to run head first into battle...

Standing RIGHT next to a guy, pumping his body full of lead, seeing the blood spray every where and having him turn around like nothing ever happened and shoot me like two times and killing me - Fail.

Millions of turrets everywhere, placed in hard-to-get-to places and when you finally decide to do an attack on them, you realise the explosion from the turrent kills you and says you commit suicide - Fail. ( Overpowered p.o.s )

Grenade spam every-****ing-where, from both grenade launchers and thrown grenades. All you hear is "Blip, blip, blip" constantly and even the freaking turrets says "blip" just to keep you on your toes or what?! - Fail.

Running around people for a minute straight in some sorta cowboy dance trying to kill them and they are trying to kill you, finally you end up getting some lucky melee punch killing him - Fail.

Invisible walls, located between beams and openings that will absorb your bullets without any indication or sparks flying off the invisible wall - Double Fail.

The number of bullets it takes to kill people ( Personal gripe with most games these days ) - Fail.

Not being able to hear what the hell people are saying due to the brilliant BT technology - Fail.

Selecting me to be the assassination target 6 times in a row, every time we hit an assassination match - Fail.

Playing in a room full of Danes and every one being annoyed and frustrated with the game - Fail.

My hands being totally cramped up because of the ****ty DS3 - Tripple ****ING FAIL!.

To sum up, just had a game with a bunch of Danes I knew from various communities and Live, there was laughs and a relaxed atmosphere and yet the game managed to annoy.

Yay (Y)

The problem with the Assassination mode is that the game doesn't really make you aware that you're the target, unless you're actually paying close attention to the HUD. Unfortunately, not everybody does and as a result we usually find the target at the front of a fire fight :laugh:

It's something they need to address.

It even says "You are the target", if a HUD notice and a voice-over doesn't cut it, perhaps people need to be smacked in the face ... with a 2 x 4.

I know, but like I said the majority of people aren't paying attention. Either that or they aren't aware of what the game mode entails. I guess PSN is just full of newbies :p

I will be on in like 10 or 15 minutes for an hour or so. Have to drive my wife to dinner so she can drink, come home then I have about 2-3 hours.

Regardless of the details will be on in like 10-15 minutes. :laugh:

DL I will join you but one problem I don't have a mic yet. Although I do have an idea, start up the 360 go into a party and use the 360 mics?

A 7:15 EST US (which I think is 12:15 for most of you guys) I am going to create a game for everyone to join. Does this sounds good?

That is in almost exactly 90 minutes.

Sound like a plan?

Because this not being able to join easily with people is really starting to suck, and I want to play with everyone.

if anything we can play against each other if we have enough people, which I know for sure I will have at least 4 of us Americans on.

Let me know.

Should be playing for a good two to three hours.

If you're counting me as one of the 4, make that 3. I'll be on after 8PM EST.

I really love the MP aspect of this game. On the huge maps, you really get a feel for what it would be like to be in a big battle. Just had a game with some NW people and I really enjoyed it. Going to get myself a USB headset so I can speak with people as I play.

Best Multiplayer since COD4 for me.

Yeah, definitely had a really good time just now all. I have to maybe play with some of the server settings and raise the count up some perhaps, but I did the 20 players to try and keep the lag down to a minimum since we are all spread out across the globe, and it appeared to have worked as it was fairly lag free, a very little for me here and there.

So continue to keep playing, it looks like it just leaves the server running which is cool as I thought it might close it when I quit but then I remembered it was dedicated servers.

Really starting to like it and I personally realized tonight, at least for my playing style, it is more about being slow and tactical than anything else and taking my time. Not playing trying to match the frenzied firefights that are happening if that makes sense.

Hopefully my wife lets me back on. (Y) If not I may jump on earlier tomorrow afternoon if possible. game is starting to grow on me for sure.

You guys left and we totally got our asses handed to us.

0-7

Epic fail for the INS clan, lol.

I think it is very safe to say most of us are still getting used to the controls themselves.

And that leads me to this rant...

THE DAMN CONTROLS

For me, they are less than ideal just as a few people have already stated in this thread, but I am confident I will definitely learn them sooner than later. I also feel once I do, I'll feel completely fine using them so while I definitely currently do not like them, I will like them sooner than later, so they are not a huge issue for me right now. While playing, I definitely heard more than several people grumbling about not liking the controls and honestly questioning if they would ever get used to them.

Someone mentioned it before in the thread and I thought it was a very good observation. I agree and think the people who are having the most issues with the controls are in more cases than not people who primarily have only used the 360 the past few years. Do not get me wrong, I think there can also be people who hate the controls just because they are extremely limited and not ideal. No doubt about it they are easy to dislike.. However if you come into using the controls not really using the PS3 much over the past 3 years, it definitely makes them that much more frustrating to use IMO.

I still stick to what I said before though, I really think it grew on me tonight and am looking forward to playing more, maybe even later tonight when my wife falls asleep. :laugh:

Oh one last thing, I definitely do not think I will be ranking up as fast as Munky did, he is some sort of freak of nature with First Person Shooters I think. :p

well it's not that bad.. I'm now used to the R1 to shoot. One thing I don't like is the sprint where you have to click in the left joystick. oh and also to mention I do not like the sensitivity of the joysticks..... sometimes it's moving just too fast.. :s Otherwise, I'm now used to the control.

    • XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar.

However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more.
