lol yup exactly
 
Where are the damn offscreen shots already GAF?!

I can't play this 'till at least 2 hours from now. I need some pics damnit lol
 
Short demo.... but very impressive!

I just aint used to the reloading thing yet..the gun seems to be in the way while reloading..blocking the view of sight.
 
I use cover constantly. Maybe you don't need it on easy but I can see it being essential on harder difficulties.
 
Was I imagining it, or do the bullets seem to slow you down when you get hit? Running towards enemy fire felt like swimming up a strong current.

What kind of glitch...would make this happen:


1) Hit X on "Killzone 2 Demo" on XMB
2) "PLAYSTATION 3" Logo appears
3) Demo loads up and asks language
4) Demo asks me to adjust brightness
5) I choose campaign
6) Level begins to load with a cool menu screen saying what the misson is (and screen is sixaxis controlled)
7) Playstation 3 cuts off


It's done this 3 times in a row. What. The. Fuck?

Delete demo, and redownload. That's definitely bizarre........ Would be a pretty F'd up time for it to go if your PS3 was on the fritz.....that would be the pure definition of Killzowned....
 
Man sucks to hear that the demo is short, oh well I already got like 50 hours worth of playtime during the beta...AHUAHAUAHUAHA
 
I will ask this again since the thread is moving along so fast.




Can you restart the demo when you complete it or does the game exit to the XMB so you have to load it again from there?




Is the demo timed or can you run around as long as you want checking out stuff?



Is there a restart function in the "Start Menu" so you can restart the demo from the beginning?

You aren't trying to play on a non-PAL, standard-definition TV, are you?

EDIT: Never mind...you are getting a menu screen...
 
You guys should mess with the lighting system. It's bloody amazing, I was going nuts with the rifles producing some incredible shit. After you clear the warehouse just mess around with the gun and objects and you'll be amazed. Oh yes, the sound is WOWWWWWWW.

Everything works perfectly until it gets to that loading screen. It looks as though its done loading and about to start the level, and "BEEP".
 
fuck...what a short demo

I liked it. At first the aiming felt really wonky, but I got used to it. It seems like they relied too much on aim acceleration than a steady flow. I want to play more.

The majority would just be offscreen camera shots, you don't want that shit. We have plenty of good screenshots already.

Plus it's not stuff we have not seen already.

hird playthrough and the encounter in the warehouse was again different. AI is well done.

Actually... its a PC monitor. But it's 720p. I play all my PS3 games on it...

But now that you mention it... go on...

Try re-downloading, maybe a file got corrupt.
 
Played 25 minutes, paused it for you, GAF. You best appreciate this...


First off, for those with surround systems, full DTS support! I don't have a big time system (home theater in a box Pioneer unit), but the mix is excellent. Music is very orchestral, really sets the mood, from the menu screens on.

Once you configure your options (Alt 2 control scheme with toggle off FTW) your off for the demo. It's made up of the infamous landing sequence that we've all seen a million times on Medium difficulty (only one possible).

The graphics. So yeah, wow. I'm on a Panasonic 700U plasma and it's safe to say that this game will dominate set-up/screenshot threads the way Uncharted and Gears 1 did...

Control has some real weight to it, using Alt 2, feels like Cod4 but just a little slower. Cover mechanic is really intuitive and popping in and out of cover gives the game a real Gears as an FPS vibe. Really fun, no problems with the controls, but I'm not that heavy of an FPS player to begin with so perhaps its easier for me to adjust...

Back to the graphics for a moment. The special effects GG added really give the title the extra leg up from other shooters I've played. Think of the effects we saw in MSG4 in Act I where the dust gathered on screen, then slowly fell to the ground. KZ has that level of effect intricacy. Lens flare, losing focus after a blast nearby, dust from the grey mud around. Great stuff. Animations are really slick, great mo-cap.

Also, crank your Sub up to 11 for this one folks, I can't get over how solid the audio mix is. CoD4 had my favorite FPS mix up to this point, but I think this supplants it. The V/A is ok, nothing to write home about, but I'd say its Gears level of corniness and frat humor. Once again, great orchestral music during gameplay as well. Has a real Star Wars (the original ones, not Hayden-ified SW) feel to it.

One last thing, the load screens are really something. You use sixaxis to move the screen in a 3-D manner. Its a fun little diversion similar to MGS' smoking Snake during Act installations. Looks slick.

There's been a lot of "just another shooter" talk going around, and they're right. This is a shooter right on equal footing with CoD4 and Halo 3 because those are the other FPS' I play. It's the little touches that made those games stand out and this game has those touches in spades.


Just a damn good gaming experience so far. Good times GAF, good times.



Edit to add: Thanks for those shots Kaako, I'm gonna install this demo on my Family room PS3 to see how it looks on my Samsung DLP as well now... :D
 
When you are done with the demo... The BALLET OF MOTHERFUCKING DEATH trailer plays... I am sitting on my couch with the biggest shit eating grin I've had in a long time :D

I use a TON of cover, more-so than Gears 2 almost :lol
Click to expand...

Me too, I spent most of the section in the warehouse sprinting from cover to cover, the AI was pretty aggressive even for normal difficulty.

All kinds of fun lobbing a grenade behind them, hear them panicking then picking them off as they sprint for cover :lol

Am convinced, day 1 sale for me now :D

Such a good feeling...I had the biggest fucking grin as well. It's perfect for the people who haven't even seen/heard of this game...they see that and BAM, jizz all over.

Hmm. Sam's big problem with the controls in his review build had to do with not enough aim acceleration. I wonder if this has changed, and in what direction?

I'm at 40%. I can't wait to see for myself and compare it to the MP beta.
 
This is horrible, I was hyped beyond belief for this game and now I'm getting motion sickness. Is the ghosting while turning around normal? While turning I can see the guns cross hairs twice. It so irritating.

do you have an old lcd by chance? maybe its response time is letting you see that?

imo this game will be worth radical experimental surgery
 
My God videos don't do this game justice. I still can't believe how good this game looks. It also feels pretty awesome. I love the weight to everything. The visuals are just sick.
 
oh i didnt know about the sixaxis on the loading screen

the graphics for the intro cutscene just blew my mind, so much so that any reviewer not spewing about it is clearly a bitter xbot

the atmosphere is absolutely incredible, like COD4 but with much more polish and special effects.

the AI is AWESOME

they shift in their cover as you move around to try and get them.. had one guy do the KZ butt scooch to perfectly put himself back in cover after i moved to the side of him, then he jumped round a corner as i moved some more

BEST GAME EVER

just wish they had unlocked the higher difficulty levels
