Is the Clan Option unlockable from the beginning or do you have to unlock it a la COD4?

Thanks for any replies. I didn't see it in the OP, so hopefully I wasn't too blind if it's there.

Looking forward to the game, but I'm a little surprised there are only 8 multiplayer boards. Most online shooters these days often have twice that.

Yes, I know, there will be DLC, but from my personal experience with Resistance 1, very few people usually buy the new maps and then the community ends up split.
 
Another amazing thread!! Great job to everyone who took part in making it.

The backstory to this was an impressive read. I'm glad it was included into the official thread.

Great thread. As fun as it was watching the numbers climb on the old thread, its nice to have a fresh platter upon which the shit has yet to land on. Looking forward to this when the game actually releases.

MP maps are 2x bigger than your standard fps.

DLC implementation in R1 was shit.

If the beta is anything to go by, the 8 maps will all be top quality maps. I'd rather have 8 great maps of which I don't want to vote-skip any of them, than have 10-12 maps where I only like 3-4. But we'll have to see how the rest of the maps are. I don't think anyone, including reviewers, knows how good the rest of the maps are since the servers aren't online yet.

I asked this in the other thread but I don't think anyone replied...

Post-game extras, are there any?

I would like to know this as well. Please tell me there is a slo-mo mode like Uncharted!!1!

This man speaks the truth! I paid for both map packs and it rarely got into the rotation of games :( They were beautiful too!

I bought the first, then realized that I wasted my money as hardly anyone else did, then I only got the last map pack when it became free recently. Sad thing is I haven't played it at all since the last map map was made free.

Every side gets retarded fanboys though once there is a good enough game to rally behind. KZ2 happens to be the one that looks like it fits the mold of well reviewed game, plus selling millions of copies. They're at what 2.5 million pre-orders thus far? That's insane given the installed base, and the fact that it's pre-orders.

Just like Too Human had 2 million plus pre orders? :lol Hate to say it, but no midnight launches means that they are nowhere near 2.5 million. Not even in the same ballpark, area code, etc.....

OMG Too Human redux.

How much did it sell?

I think the 2.5 figure floating around (for which I have no confirmation) is for NA and PAL, and GS is not the only place you can preorder games.
 
I hate sells age fans.
Can we talk about the game and not sells.
Now it's pre orders.

It's not like you guys are marketers or anything.

As said by others, 2.5 million is what they've said for worldwide. And this is more than just GS like others are saying. I'm personally getting mine from Amazon as I have a gift certificate.

Edit: The only reason I brought up pre-orders is because my point was that when a game gets as well received as KZ2 has thus far, plus it seems that it's going to be a multi-million seller, the fanboys will rally behind it. I don't care what it sells or not, it's not going to affect my enjoyment of the game other than that I hope there will be plenty of people to play against online.

Awesome OP as usual. A couple questions about that theme. Are all of those images the rotating backgrounds for it? Also my flash drive never seems to be recognized, any tips on how to get the theme onto my PS3?

I think you can save it directly to your PS3 from your PS3 browser.

Based on how many people bought the CoD4 maps, I don't think you need to worry about there being too much of a split when they release downloadable maps. Tons of people bought the map pack on CoD4.

The arm-chair business executes irritate me, too. I've said it before and i'll say it again: There should really be a separate sales-only sub-forum.

But if we don't know how much the game sells then we can't tell how much we enjoyed it. :D

Oh, sorry if I brought sales in here. I just thought people should have known that there isn't going to be a mid-night launch for this game. I too dislike sales-age in my gaming-age, but I didn't think it was thread worthy. But I didn't really care about the sales, but the fact that the game isn't going to get a mid-night launch, which I would have loved to attend.

Again, sorry

It was nothing personal against you, no worries.

Hey, have you decided how you are going to split up the clans, as EU I think has something like 66 members which if I remember is 2 over the limit. Plus, as 16 is the max size for a clan match, how are clans going to be divided into teams?

Secondly can anyone in the Beta tell me what the starting weapons for the Assault class is?

I don't think Mid Night launch has anything to do with sales talk.

I agree with the others.
Sales talk need a sub forum, so people can bicker about sales over there :lol
