ok just got 30 kills with a sniper in a game and didn't get a Sniper ribbon? WTF

Is it per round for the sniper ribbon? None of them fucking specify whether it's per round or per game. They're either different or some of them just aren't fucking working.

Holy fuck, I just finished a game with FFObsessed and another gaffer against some motherfucking noisy Italians. Wtf they were bitching all the goddamn time (and I could understand everything, as it's quite similar to Spanish).

This has been the most annoying game since I bought KZ2. Ughh

Every time I sniped one they'd just swear at me. I thought it was french actually one said "vous êtes un tas de merde"

Maybe a mixture of both, fucking bitches tho :lol

Are you guys still playing?
I will go back in a couple minutes. I'm preparing my 2nd dinner (pizza, lulz). Once I'm done I'll join whatever GAF match is going on, or if there's nothing, I'll create one.

That's possible, maybe there were French and Italian guys, but goddamn the Italians made me go crazy and goddamn did I enjoy each frag I made : D

I'm gonna play bodycount and see if i can get a sniper ribbon, if im fucked like with the boost ribbon.

edit: If you make body count only games, 5 mins, 1 round. You are a retard. Urgh.
 
I almost beat the SP this weekend on hard.
I just charged the temple and have reached Radec.
I did jump in the MP for a couple games, although not for long enough periods of time though. I'm glad I stuck with the SP more first. I'm also glad I played it on hard. I have a feeling it's helped coach me through learning the aiming. Anyway ... I think I'm pretty much at the very end of the game. It's been pretty epic so far. The story is OK. It's not amazing, but it's not bad either. The level of intensity is top notch though. Sooo many moments in the SP that just amazed me. I wanted to stop an look around so much more then I got to do.

Anyway ... hopefully I can beat the SP tonight. Then I can start tackling the MP.

I think I would actually buy mech games if they looked and played like the mech section of this SP. Soooo much fun.

Wow. The M4 revolver is awesome. Everyone needs to do themselves a service and do the 10 handgun kills/game x 8 in order to get it. It's probably my favorite weapon in the game, and will prove very valuable to me once I unlock Scout, and need it to make some kills on the way to where I'll set up shop to snipe people at.

Does anyone else hate the 'Pyrrhus rise' map? It's way to big, and open for anyone not a Scout to be useful. Especially if there are no tacticians, you wind up running from your side all the way to the other side and valuable time getting objectives done or kills is wasted. Easily the worst map of the bunch. Such a throwaway.
 
holy shit.. just finished the game... MATHA FAKKING last level :lol :lol

now i'm going for an easy trophy run and enjoy the scenery

thanx Guerilla! Goed Gedaan!

There is one good thing about playin the press copy, you get the Valor Cross and the Valor Grand Cross without playing against anyone but bots. Too bad I can't actually get more medals without an opponent.

It's my favorite map... and I don't even have the Scout badge yet (about 300 points left)
 
Me and a friend have been trying to work out a way to be on the same team when he joins a game. What's the best way to do this? Everytime I create one without faction balance it ends up that no one joins. As far as I know there is no faction balance filter in the browser. Any advice?

Tacticians make the map. Really is one of my favorite, great for epic charges and clashes. (HGH Industries is actually my favorite).

That was my favorite part, never before have I felt that every inch of ground was fought before. So intense.

It also runs and jumps! (They did tease with the buggy though).

I was disappointed to find that there was no coop in this game. Is this true that you can't join a MP game with a friend?

What difficulty are you playing on?

By the way, the game starting from where you are up and to the end is the single-player at its best. The level after the bridge, Suljeva Village, is simply fantastic.
Playing on normal, so far just fine for me for the first playthrough. I die here and there, but not often enough to get frustrated. I've got as far as the entrance to the academy I think? So far, I think crossing the bridge, and the first portion of the first level have impressed me the most. Especially the bridge. Sounds cheesy and like an unnecessary hyperbole but those two spots felt literally like playing some super-huge budget war movie. It's amazing how much they nailed core mechanics, visuals and enemy AI here. There's rarely that sometimes happens that throws you out of the experience

I actually played Uncharted demo a bit right after last nights KZ2 session, to see how the graphics match up and all. While I doubt I'll like KZ2 as a game overall as much (I'm really very fond of all things Uncharted), it all felt so much more innocent for the lack of better word. Probably for the best given the theme but it was just kinda funny how much of a contrast it was, despite the fact that you technically shoot at bad guys in both games.

I really really liked that map. I did my best on that one. Of course that was when everyone first got the game so everyone were soldiers. The assault rifle can suprisingly shoot pretty damn far.

Wow, I am part of the 10%.

How it works ? It doesn't seem to be point based, since I have friends with more point but they didn't receive any medal.


Is the game really able to detect my roxor skill and my beautiful way of killing ? :lol

Disagree, for 32 people, its great...some of the maps are too small for 32 people. I've been joining 'medium size' games, find them more enjoyable at the moment since I can't aim worth a shit...yet. I played 3 100kill body counts last night in a row on a 20 player large map and I actually ended all three with a +1 KD ratio...FINALLY.

How long does it take to unlock more weapons in MP? I am moving up ranks decently quick, but haven't unlocked very much.

You get 2 uselessish ranks (make a squad, then make a clan), then you get the SMG and the shotgun.
 
God ... I thought last Friday was hard. I wanted to go home and play badly. Now that I'm pretty much at the very end of the SP and have dipped my toes into the MP, I'm pretty much screwed this Monday at work. I wanted to call in sick and now that I"m here, I want to leave early.

Gotta stay responsible ... bad times ... stay responsible ... :lol

I played a couple of hours in the Neogaf BELIEVE server last night, man some awesome matches we had, i was liquidsnk_mx btw. I have to say that after almost 4 hours of online play i finally feel like i am in control of my actions, it takes a while to get used to the controls but once you do it's great.

Fucking love the game especially the fact that you can be playing for 40+ minutes nonstop, no lobbies or anything.

Warzone rocks.:D

who would have thought killing with the medic's healing weapon would be fun and better than a normal pistol?Shoots beams way more faster, Ultimate humiliation.

Ok, it says on my stats that I beat the SP in pretty much 5 hours and 15 minutes. I'm thinking I can readily handle Elite =)

Also, Kittonwy, I have a pic for you I took with my cellphone. I'll upload it later as I'm in school right now, but I know you'll love it.

Didn't even realize you could do this. :lol

Is there a list anywhere of what you unlock at each rank? And I still wanna know if it's possible to play with bots or not...

Only played for about an hour online so far (concentrating on SP) but i am loving it, only thing is I suck!!!!

Theres been more than enough said about the slightly sluggish/realistic (depending on your view!) controls but i do find teamkills hard to avoid at times especially when your getting used to it. Is there a no TK mode?!

Hey guyz a little help. I have reached the general star and i am getting the badges regularly.

But for some reason I dont even have a single one for a Mission specific:

Capture and Hold Defend Specialist - 10 mission points earned by capturing a point


I have tried every possible way and i cant get a single ribbon for this event ^^^^

Any help please :D

Ok something is wrong here.. my game FROZE twice on me =(. It froze once then i went back and eventually a few minutes later it froze again. I unlocked the medal to have the health packs to use for the other classes but it wont let me choose that and somehow i got the assault secondary badge before unlock assault class.

Oh, the Higgs Light Machine gun is so much more full of awesome sauce than the ISA one (no sights).
I kinda wish they could have done an open sight on that one. Make it kind of like an AK 47 sight, or with how the old STA 14 model looked with it's sight.

@ Squids- I think what it does is that it allows you to start mixing with the medic badge other unlocked secondaries. I could be wrong though.

Yea, TK can be turned off....my best frag moments were :

1) I was standing with my entire squad in close quarters, tried to hurl a grenade..got shot..it just fell to the ground..BOOM...whole squad is killed.

2) I was laying down heavy fire..and someone walked right into my bullet stream...frag headhot!

While holding a position you have to kill any enemies in your area to gain mission points.

It's up to the server, some have friendly fire, some don't. Apparently there no way to know until you join it though. Which I found REALLY annoying. I got into a game last night where everytime I threw a grenade, 3 or 4 of my teamamtes would immediately jump on it. I ended the game with -26...

Why do I always face the wrong direction when I get revived? It always feels like when someone revives me in the middle of a firefight, I get up with my back towards the enemy and die again like a second later.

Is there an advantage with being a squad leader? I like joining a squad but i never even considered forming a squad myself.

Hah, not from what I can tell. In all honesty I feel bad forming a squad myself, mostly because I die A LOT. I figure if you're a squad leader you need to treat yourself as more of a mobile spawn point to keep your team close to an objective. As soon as I get the medic health pack ability I'll do it more, and try to just provide support.

Anyone know how long it takes Killzone.com to upgrade your info? I wanted to browse it and check out my stats, but it hasn't updated at all (still says rank 1 and none of the game being finished).

Yeah, if you do the math with the number of players that appeared on the leaderboards last time I checked, you'd have to be in the top 3000, 9000, 18000 and 30000 or so for those awards.


Maybe some of his points were pre-patch, I don't think those count for last weeks rankings, next time you go to the game check out the last week tab on the buddy rankings and compare. I had 7000 points and only 1500 counted for the ranking (still got 1% though).



andrewdean84 over on IGN got all the trophies for being in the top 1% , and he said he and his brother basically only played against bots to level up. What a cheap player. That ticks me off that people who basically cheapened the game by playing against bots, are now getting rewarded for it.
