[Official] Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

I'll test it later, but is the bolded above anything to do with the aiming/moving?

People on GAF are saying they tweaked the dead zone/acceleration of the aiming. Minor changes, but they say it feels better. I can't verify any of this because I'm still at work. Patch isn't even out in the US yet.

Yeah

Killzone 2 patch has improved the controls

Killzone 2 has been patched to version 1.2. Minor tweaks have been made to the controls.

Some have complained that Killzone 2's controls are "plagued" by input lag. Some say that it is a deliberate move by Guerilla Games to make Sev's moves feel realistic and weighty. I personally think they are two different issues.

The latest patch includes a few minor tweaks to controller input, despite comments from Guerilla Games that no changes were to be made.

Some forumites are saying that the patch has improved the supposed input lag, including the removal of the controller's deadzones (there used to be a delay before turning).

I can neither confirm or deny these rumours, but download the patch and test it for yourself. And remember, be wary of the placebo effect.

[uPDATE] - More reports are coming in that the controls have been improved, but so far our information is limited to the multiplayer controls.

[uPDATE 2] - The control tweaks have apparently also been made to the single-player. Any changes are minor and do not impact the feel of the game. The changes might feel like an improvement to those who were adverse to the controls before the patch.

WTH is wrong with KZ2 online thing......for some reason......I level up and then when i quit the muiltiplayer game and check my stats - it doesnt show that I did......has anyone else had this problme?

Yeah I found that out. What i did was I played another round and my stats were back.

Sorry all I never got to hop on, or else I would have tried to set up a match. We will get one going soon, real soon.

I will actually try for sometime this weekend, would be pretty impromptu though so keep an eye on this thread, if I can set it up, I will.

And when exactly did they release the new patch? I read it here, launched the SP game after I read it about 5PM Eastern Time US, and never got it? So just curious, especially if they made the controls a bit more responsive.

Yeah I found that out. What i did was I played another round and my stats were back.

Or you can go to main menu and log back into Warzone, should update that way.

Its like in Halo 3 , the last match never appears on the web stats, really annoying little bug/issue.

So is there a server you all usually play on? I'm not sure how that works with KZ2 (or PS3 for that matter). Didn't get to play any last night because I went out. I might have some time to play today though. So I'd love to jump in with you guys if possible.

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.

    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
