Honestly this just looks like Crysis 3 level eye candy to me. Gotdamn.

 

[Evolution_1ne]

KZ SF looks a lot like Crysis in general. I personally preferred the art direction of previous Killzone games.

I have to say, I miss that highly stylized K2 look as well, though this looks great.

I remember when they first revealed it and it was really blurry and post-processed, I think that looked awesome. They ended up clearing the game up a lot...

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I can't imagine what GG's other game must look like. I'm sure it will be even better.

 

[ChrisG683]

Crysis 2 looks better than this game and then with Maldo's textures... too good.

True dat, MaLDo textures are godlike.

I remember hearing one of the art-directors saying he was most proud of the Helghast side of town. I have no doubt that will be gritty as fuck and more atmospheric.

What we've seen is supposed to look colourfull and shiny. You have to want to live there and protect it. We've seen glimpses of gritty.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

So when are we going to get a full direct feed match?

 

[shinobi602]

Crysis 2 looks better than this game

Have to disagree there. Hell, it looks as good as Crysis 3 to me.

 

[X-Frame]

This so much. This is all I want right now.

 

[RoboPlato]

So when are we going to get a full direct feed match?

Full match? Probably today or tomorrow. Direct feed? Probably not for a while.

 

[SniperHunter]

Do you guys think they'll add the DoF before launch?

depends. If they are going for 60 FPS, they will will remove dof and motion blur (none are present atm). If they lock at 30 FPS then they will add dof, motion blur and AA.

 

[Esch]

The uber tweaked Maldo version looks better, but that's it.... And it's indicative of how ridiculously good this game looks that people are comparing it to the absolute cutting edge of PC gaming.

the single player (initial terrorist demo) looks better than Crysis 2 and Crysis 3, simply because of the art direction.

the actual tech is way behind, obviously.

 

[BruiserBear]

These new screens definitely look nice. I really wish this game was running at 60fps though. I just think more developers need to make that their target on these new consoles. I was super happy to hear 343 made that a priority going forward.

Tech isn't that far off. If they get the post processing from Feb back in and the newer AA method they mentioned in the first tech presentation it'll be pretty damn close.

 

[hoserx]

looking at the crysis vs KZ shot comparison......... uggghhh at Killzone's FOV.

 

[Yasir]

Do we have numbers of multiplayer count etc and whether clans are back in?

Yea the game needs both post processing and AA asap! Looking forward to the TGS trailers

 

[RoboPlato]

FoV is actually a lot wider than previous games. The weapon position is what's off. It's not distracting like it was at E3 but it's still not quite in the sweet spot for this FoV.

Do we have numbers of multiplayer count etc and whether clans are back in?

24 players max

 

[SniperHunter]

24 players max

wish they had gone for bigger maps and 42 or 32 players

 

[Pound_lb003]

Dear Guerilla,

Please... Your new IP has to be an RPG with graphics better than this. Please. I beg you.

Dearest, Kindest Regards,

Me.

 

[RoboPlato]

I think 24 is a pretty good sweet spot for Killzone, especially since there don't seem to be any vehicles.. Enough to be hectic without getting too far into clusterfuck territory. BC1, BC2, and BF3 all had 24 players on consoles and felt very populated and I doubt the maps in this will be anywhere near that size.

Killzone's MP isn't made to be similar to something like Battlefield or other open-level shooters. It wouldn't suit it. It's a down to the ground, in your face infantry faceoff on smaller scale maps. 24 players is perfect.

I want Mechs!!

I dunno, KZ2's multiplayer with 32 players is really awesome. It's a clusterf*** but it's awesome!

 

[Bradach]

i love the mix of fabric, metal and lights on the character models. Looks excellent.

 

[SniperHunter]

looks like the multiplayer is still in pre alpha, not playable at gamescom eh?

 

[RyanardoDaVinci]

That shit was a blast in the early days of the game though. Just utter chaos.

All 4 spawn grenades in the S&D room in Radec Academy; 32 people constantly spawning every few seconds; grenades, C4, and rockets exploding everywhere -- and some guy still manages to somehow arm the objective amidst all of that.

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

Honestly this just looks like Crysis 3 level eye candy to me. Gotdamn.

Because...hUMA.

Spoiler

Looks better imo. Don't tell KKRT00 I said that.

 

[LtOrange]

Really? I was hoping to get some footage of some matches today. This makes me kinda nervous actually.

Actually BC2 was 32 IIRC.

The sniper is looking really cool and never doubted the graphics

 

[Zaventem]

Wow the ISA actually look cool this time around!

 

[meppi]

it reminded me of the Villa, a map in Rainbow Six Vegas 2:

And we have the next gen debut of wall guy as well.

 

[SniperHunter]

it will probably be playable at tgs

 

[TheFatOne]

32 players was mainly a clusterfuck because of GG's idiotic decision to let the players throw Spawn Grenades on the fucking objective.

Those were the days. I remember just destroying teams because of their own stupidity. Just camping at their spawn with the shotty. Are spawn grenades coming back for KZ SF?

Edit: If there is a GAF clan for this they should split it US vs Euros. Was fun playing against the laggy Euros in K2.

 

[Guymelef]

Next gen wall guy in a Rainbow Six Vegas 2 image?

 

[VanWinkle]

Looks like motion blur in this screenshot:

 

[Dictator93]

That is actually radial blur from an explosion. Different thing

30fps, FXAA. Yep... you got dem PCs good brother. Fight the good fight.

 

[Zaventem]

God damn he looks cool. I know what class i'm going for.

 

[calder]

Not with shu playing. He was terrible. Lol

Are you crazy? Shu was so damn good his mere presence made the enemy freeze up and lose the will to fight. He has the aura of a winner, that's more valuable than the ability to actually shoot people standing still in front of you.

I especially laughed when the Helghast in front of him stopped and turned his back, so Shu meleed him... and then meleed the air a few more times for good measure lol.

 

[Llyrwenne]

I just noticed the callouts for the part of the map you're in under the radar, that could come in pretty handy for communicating with other players, even outside competitive or clan play. I'm really excited for this game. I loved KZ2. 24 players isn't really an issue for me, I always thought that that was the sweet spot in KZ2. I'm really happy that they're bringing back all the customization. The free DLC is also great, ensuring the multiplayer has a longer life without splitting up the playerbase every time new DLC comes out. For me personally, this game alone destroys the XBO launch line-up.

 

[msdstc]

Jeez the visuals are insane, and the game looks fun, but hows the gunplay and controls?

gunplay/controls was always good in killzone.

 

[SniperHunter]

FXAA was temporary, they will implement a new AA method for the final version. Maybe FXAA + new method both

 

[SMZC]

Not really.
