[Official] Killzone 2


Recommended Posts

Munky now has them :) I will be online this weekend too for a few games, will tell the girlfriend to watch a film or something.....

If someone sends me a PM with the details the alert will send to my phone and let me know.

Okay, there's an account that has been set up with myself, johhny0 and audioboxer with the DLC for this. If anyone else would like to join the group to split the cost of this and any future DLC on the game please PM me. Obviously only 2 spots left now due to the 5 activation limit.

If you're referring to me then I am thoroughly insulted! :laugh: :p

Thanks but I'm not too happy with it, I always go for a 2+ ratio and then try to keep it there. Just need to play some more and train with a few classes, then 2.0 shouldn't be difficult.

I suck at FPS games clearly.

Just need to have a goal :p

I'm trying to arrange a game for tomorrow evening at around 21:00pm ( GMT +0 ), would anyone be able to play around that time?

I don't think I'm going out tomorrow so yes.

Had a killer hangover today, I don't think I want to go through this again Sunday. Plus I have an exam on Wed.

I might be on earlier during the day for some rounds so if anyone sees me jump in.

Sounds good, now what would you prefer - Me setting up a Body Count server or I join a half-full server and you all join me through the "Clan members playing" list ? Because under the current system, I doubt we'll all be able to on the same team without being seriously lucky.

I will be about for that if it's at 9. Will be off to the pub for the match later West Ham v Liverpool and will grab my headset.

Sethos I don't think I have you on my PSN, feel free to add me if you want to. Tag is in my signature.

I added you (Y)

I might start up the server an hour earlier, then people can join as they get online.

Server is going up in around 20 minutes, name will be Neowin.net and hold 16 Players. It's a Body Count server at a 15 Min / 100 Kill ratio, 3-4 maps in the rotation.

My brother is watching a movie on my PS3. I'll join after he finish if you guys still online.

Not a lot. I set up a server and 2-3 people showed, I then told everyone in the lobby I was redoing the server to change some options, they never came back once it was up. Then me and Andy decided to find a regular public server, I tried to find a medium sized server yet I'm constantly hit with the "Not the appropriate rank" or whatever, a few of them limits badges and forces autoselect (N) Then all you have left is a huge messy server, one big rocket-launcher cluster**** where proximity voice ruins EVERYTHING - All those people running around with $2,95 headsets making SO much noise. At some point KoL and Phee joined, we teamed up up but it was still that cluster**** server, so I told them I'd try and set up our own server again. One round, then munky had to eat, then it was me vs Kol and Phee and then I decided to shut down the server.

All in all a lame experience, one I will never repeat. Nobody is talking, everyone are cheapskates buying the cheapest headset they can find, allowing hosts to limit badges, force stupid options and generally tweak the game is massive failure, the rocket-launchers are just dominating the bigger games and Killzone 2 is a perfect example of why players should never be in charge of setting up the servers beyond extremely basic options - Radec academy is so overplayed because the point-###### can get tons of points.

    • How can it beat a Steam machine without a serious GPU? The two CU iGPU only provides about 5fps in gaming. That's not going to make any gamer happy.
    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.

You can also switch between three sound profiles including Beats Signature for balanced music playback, Entertainment for films and gaming, and Conversation for clearer voice in calls and podcasts. Physically, they are designed to be worn for long periods without feeling heavy or awkward. The ear cushions use UltraPlush engineered leather while metal sliders allow you to adjust the fit. On the connectivity side, the Studio Pro use Class 1 Bluetooth for a stable, long-range wireless connection. There is also a 3.5mm input if you want to plug in directly, including use with in-flight entertainment systems. Controls are located on the headphones and include a "b" button for music and call control, a volume rocker, and a multifunction button used for switching listening modes, EQ settings, power, and pairing.

    • "lets you pause updates by choosing an end date, for up to 35 days" Wasn't it "indefinitely"?
    • Those extra reboots are related to the UEFI Secure Boot certificate update thing.
