Seriously. Idiots need to put things into perspective. Of course the preview code will have bugs. "Could garner a B"? Why even bother speculating the score this far in advance, just because of some various bugs?

I often don't mind nitpicking of games I'm interested in, but in this particular case it truly seems they have a beef with this game.

I'm on the fence about it. In any game I've seen that attempts a first person body (Breakdown and Mirror's Edge included) it's just not done very convincingly. You look down and the feet slide around and shit... it's kind of dumb.

Some devs do first person body only at certain times in the game, where they have total control over the animation, and I think it works pretty good. Gearbox does this with the Brothers in Arms games, where you see your body during a parachute drop, or when you get blown off your feet. GG even did something similar in the original Killzone with the context sensitive player vault.

Of course, I haven't really played any first person shooter that manages to get that feeling of being in a body right, even when there is 3D model of it like in the games you mentioned. Probably only because the player often isn't governed by the same movement/animation restrictions like the AI and often hover over the ground rather than drawing any traction. Regardless, I would still like to see something down there, but I can understand the technical and resource issues that would involve.

Man... the character design is so good. :D Still can't find any shots of the ISA scout.

Yeah... there's that one, and then the one I used for my avy... but other than those I can't find any. I've been going through the MP videos to try and get some screen grabs, but it seems like no one uses the ISA scout in any of the vids.
 
I started up Liberation last night as well, didn't intend to play for 4 hours :lol

Got gold on all the first challenges as well too, woo perks :D

Currently stuck on the steam area.

I hear you. I mean there's a torrent of stuff. Must resist... doesn't help that I click on this thread everytime there's a post.

I'm kidding myself I'm lucky to not be in the beta; y'know to keep it fresh and bubbly for Feb. :(

That's my favorite PSP game actually. I actually tried to beat all challenges on gold (didn't succeed but close).

What's with all the controversy surrounding this game?

I don't think that there's anything wrong with what he said in that blog post. A lot of you are just being very very hyper sensitive to any remote critisism.
 
I see the guys at 1up are still dead set on downplaying Killzone 2 as much as possible. The sheer amount of nitpicking and searching for flaws is ridiculous. I would have been fine with this if they did it for every game but they clearly don't. More often than not the completely gush over heavily flawed games (Fable 2 and GTA IV come to mind), hardly ever mentioning their flaws. For shame 1up.

I don't really see any problems with what they wrote, they said they liked it a lot so whats the problem. You guys completely skip over the positive things they say and attack them for talking about what their concerns are, you know their jobs.
 
I'm not particularly fan of how those jeep things sound, I hope those are placeholders because my lawnmower sounds more bad ass
 
Man ... I'd really like to see some rain to go with those lightning storms.

Can you imagine GG's take on rain?

It would be hard to do both of them in 90 x 120... you going to make your own? You know how to host an image?

If so... go to "User CP", then click "edit profile"... third box down give you the option to upload an avatar address.

Tinypic is fine to host plain (non-animated) avatars and you don't need an account to upload. Make sure your avatar width is 90 pixels or the forum will resize it and you'll get shit from a mod.
 
recklessmind said:
That one will get resized... and be over the height limit.

I'll do some in a few minutes... and upload them. Need to eat something first though.
Click to expand...
really? I didn't know if less than 90pix width will get upscaled to 90.
 
Oh shit!, recklessmind, Hazaro many many many thanks!!!!!!:D rarely one finds such kind people on the internet.

Thanks you again guys.
 
Hey can I have one of those KZ avatars if you're going to make a couple, Steven Gerrard seems so out of place.

Just read the storyline on KZ.com, god GG you have an amazing backstory, utilize it!

EDIT: Full Recovery do you have that old GG avatar free? That looked awesome.

Aye, I hope it will get a good book art with story of this universe for Killzone 2 CE.
Or in-game either like a idea from below \/.

I have an idea; Instead of clogging the game with endless exposition, they should utilize the PS3 browser to connect to the Killzone web page. If players want a deeper back story, then they can read their hearts out. Wouldn't/shouldn't take too many modifications of making the storyline web page work well ingame. :D

Tempy, do this!

I meant novel, graphic novel, art book specifically. I agree, over exposition in a games story can come across awful, it's better to have a hefty chunk in the games opening equilibrium as opposed to several unconnected blobs throughout. For example, "There are some Helghast, they invaded your planet, go and kill them" NOT " were invading Vekta", then in the 6th level, "BTW these guys invaded your home planet".

I don't know how much sense that made. /\

If you have a particular screen you like... I can do some more. Don't mind at all. Mine are kind of boring though, can't do the animated stuff.

Yet.
