Is there a U.S. NeoGAF clan?

 

[dralla]

how do the maps scale for 8 or 16 player games?

 

[Septimus]

It isn't screen tearing. It's a static interference effect.

 

[A.R.K]

So I was reading some threads on Killzone.com and see ppl complaining that there is no team talk option unless you are in a squad? and the squad can only have 4 members. But you see I convinced 6 of my friends to fu**ing pre-order this game cuz I know how awesome it will be but now I can't talk to all of my friends at the same time in a game even though we are on the same team? Sure prox-chat will work but you can't expect all the team members to just stick around in one room and chat!!!!!

Also when you join a friend game, you can end up on the opposite side and you can't change? But I want to be with my friends!!!! Thats how you play as a team and work as a team. Sure I'll play random games but when I have my friends online I want to ONLY play with them in the SAME team.

WTF??? plz tell me this is not true. And unfortunately if it is, I hope GG fixes this crap.

On side note, Amazon shipped my copy!! Woooooooo

This is some of my major concerns that I thought was the standard for an FPS multiplayer.
This must be fixed asap.

Why do I have to start a new server to be able to change settings?
Why cant I disable bots when I think there is enough PPl in the server.
Why can all chat whit each other at the same time? I know that you can talk to ppl when you are close to them, but not otherwise.
Why cant I talk to all my team mates without having to start an group?
Why is the quality of the voip so bad?
Why is that so hard to change team? You must enable "not balanced teams" to be able to switch teams...
WHY is there no PARTYMODE?!

This must be fixed, I and many of my friends play allot of Mp and there is many futures that I though was standard that is not in KZ2 mp. Why is that? Can this be fixed tempy? Ian Howie?

I really would like to get this answered.

The less "real" people in a ranked game, the less experience you get. Like, exponentially less, so if they are trying to rank up that way, good luck to them, because it's going to take a hell of a lot longer.

That seems like a decent enough compromise. Couldn't a small clan just get its players together to scrim against some bots, though? In that case, you'd still have plenty of humans in the server but you'd all be facing bots on easy.

Didn't know the ranking is important to most of the players. But the skill won't improving alot if keep "cheating". That's why I don't care them.

Play with cheaters in fair match, they will extreme shitting in the pants.

Well, ranking is tied to unlocking new badges, weapons and character classes, so it's a pretty big deal in this game.

But yeah, I agree that guys playing against bots a lot of the time will be at a disadvantage against real players.

 

[dork]

WHY is there no PARTYMODE?![/B]

honestly this question should be asked before any game is even released..hell that should be priority 1 for any game that has a multiplayer that wants to stand the test of time

 

[KZObsessed]

Can't believe you only get a bronze trophy for each set of medals :lol

[Aeon712]

I just looked at my clock and it's almost 7pm, I still have to work on a project >_<. Damn this game for being so good. Finally brought myself to turn it off.

 

[M3Freak]

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaccck!!! It's nice to see people from the R2 thread making their way over here, including those that insisted R2 was a good game.

Also, swwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet vindication!!!!!

HA! I told you. And Bob. And many others. Now, where's my lollipop?

Just saw the Brian Cox ad on UK TV.

Looked very good.

Thanks for that.

 

[Ceb]

That GAF game was good. Shame about the lag though.

 

[Zeliard]

I just got the (automated) Gamestop call, telling me it'll be here tomorrow morning.

Torturous bastards.

The girl on those messages is far too cheerful for a normal human, by the way.

Indeed.

My suicide rate went up 200% in that match. Both times I fired a rocket I had a teammate run into it :lol

 

[alba]

lagggggggggg

Yeah it was quite laggy compared to like this evening, i don't get it... too much people playing maybe? I don't know (we should do this again tomorrow, was fun )

The Palace with Redec is damn hard on Vet

 

[-viper-]

Had a game with many GAF members for a few hours. KZ2 is pretty good online, but it was laggy as fuck.

Seemed like everyone was teleporting around me. :\

 

[Felix Lighter]

So tomorrow's the big day. Really looking forward to playing with other gaffers.

 

[Nemo]

So, those friendly turret bots in MP. I noticed one was shooting, I was standing in it's line of fire and it killed me, but it said it was suicide. Is this a bug or did I see that wrong?

Yeah, was a blast. My tactician finally got air support

[Revolutionary]

It was horribly laggy on my end.

Those few times I did well were the times where it was somewhat manageable.

...anyway, yes, we need to play more.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Did it target you or did you walk into its line of fire? If it you walked into the line of fire then a suicide makes sense. The turret builder shouldn't be punished with a team kill in that case in my opinion.

 

[alba]

Can't believe you only get a bronze trophy for each set of medals :lol

Yeah, i did like 150 damn spawn points in like 2/3 games I only got two ribbons (gonna take a while)

That was just alba's game. I had to leave

Play other servers, they're smooth as anything.

Well I created it but I left for like 5 mins and It was still going... so I'm not exactly sure how the creation server thing works (the guys who were playing while i was gone, did you still have lags or?)

I need to understand!

 

[Nemo]

I was behind someplace for cover and about 45 degrees behind me was the turret. How's that my fault?

 

[xiked]

Keep in mind that things can be changed just with a little update but it will take time.

well I hope so, because PPL in general are not patient and I though KZ2 was the big SONY shooter but it fails in some very important thing, the COMMUNICATION. The key to have fun in a game. GG should really take notice of my and many others similar complaints and fix it very soon. I love KZ2 how it feels when you shoot and I really hope it will become big. but right no it is so big of an hassle to be able to have fun whit friends.

 

[DoomGyver]

I think the lag was caused by a bunch of US players invading EU servers. :lol

 

[Felix Lighter]

I guess I'd have to see how it all went down to really know whose fault it was but in most cases a turret builder can't prevent teammates from walking in front of a turret. The teammate should avoid the turrets fire.

Alba hosted? I guess that is exactly why he was the one who teleported the most around me D;

 

[3rdamention]

I want to get in on a gaf game tonight, or get in with the Gaf East clan game. What time does Kolorzone start? Tonight? Tomorrow Morning?

 

[alr1ght]

Having no party mode prevents a group of people staying together and dominating the other players in game after game, thus ruining it for them.

 

[alba]

I did? (Weird) I hosted first but then left so someone else must've been hosting it and then I came back so I have no idea what happened there? pointed back to me? who knows... I sure don't XD

I think the lag was caused by a bunch of US players invading EU servers.

Well then, by logic only the us players should be lagging, not everybody :0

Well then tomorrow or whenever someone does host the GAF game, we'll see how it goes if it's not laggy then it must be me!

 

[SwitchBladeKneegrow]

Got the call that the gamestop up the street is selling at midnight tonight, not really liking some of the Multiplayer comments I'm reading though...decisions, decisions...

 

[Felix Lighter]

Come on. You're against friends staying together game after game? A party system improves online play immensely for me.

 

[pseudocaesar]

Hopefully the servers are running a bit smoother soon, lagfest.

Special attention for Elpresador at the launch party in Amsterdam:

:lol

Friends do stay together game after game. If you want to be on the same team you need to find or create a game without auto team balancing. By default it's on, to stop people stacking one team against the other like in the Beta. Urgh.

Killzone 2 - Limited Edition Collector's Box 24/02/2009 DISPATCHED

Hopefully I'll get it tomorrow. Valkyria Chronicles arrived in three days, which was sort of surprising. Especially considering it was sold out.

I wasn't in the beta so I don't know how that went. I just like playing on the same team as my friends. Not to ruin anyone else's fun, but because playing with friends is just more fun. It's not the end of the world, just an inconvenience I guess.

 

[careksims]

I was right. Nothing good like early releases ever happen in San Diego No midnight launch for me! Tomorrow at 10am. Gah and I see people playing already on my list.
