GG guyz. Those two maps were like mazes, still it's not hard to get a hang of which direction is which. LOL at the dude on the other team who was hiding in the pillar at the end of the game, his team just squad spawned to their deaths.

Wow that new medic laser looks nice! I didn't even noticed they changed it till now. Also am I imagining things or does the Campaign mode look nicer? Also, I can't for the life of me find the new guns on the new maps :/

Finally got my stuff back and was able to play some MP for about 20 minutes ....still as fantastic as ever!
...and yeah, I immediately noticed very much improved medic laser

Question:

Should I even bother with the DLC? ...or is pretty fragmented community wise?

You can get more ammo at an ammo crate apparently, or you just have to let it respawn

Hey pat :D (Guess who this is)

Apparently this game's still selling well...that or a whole mess of people recently decided to jump into the multiplayer side of things (look at HGH side...wtf?) This was in a completely random server; there was nothing that would specifically attract new players.

I think this wins the competition for weakest opposition ever :lol

All six maps for 11.99 is definitely worth it. I noticed allot more people playing the last maps then in the previous ones, so things are looking up. But yeah the community is pretty fragmented. Hopefully more people will get the bundle.

Might have to give this a go again this weekend.

Has the nade spamming decreased at all? I like how when attempting to fix the spawn "problem" a new problem of megafuck proportions is created.

Tell me it's better guys, I loved KZ2 multiplayer.

I'd rather see this happen next week so I could've gone for the 1% trophy. I've hardly played much this week and I won't be here on Saturday :\
Click to expand...

This reminds me of a question I've been meaning to ask: When does the a new 'week' start? Googling leads me to believe Sunday at midnight, but I don't have a definite answer on which timezone.

Also does anyone have any general tips on going for the 1%? In random pubs I have enough skill to finish near the top of the leaderboard (clan wars? lolno).. Should I play exclusive 100 kill bodycount-only rooms?

And I'm assuming I'll be looking at 20 hours at the least to compete for top 1%?

Thank you kindly!

Well, I reckon (I) could do it with <15 hours' playtime in a week. You'll need to get over 7000 points...so it really depends. Do you get close to 200 points in a standard length match? If not, then bodycount is probably your best option.

What's your PSN? (So I can check out your stats :p)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Goodbye Janice, you lived a long, fruitful life. :( :(

I think the weekly stats get updated on Sunday 12:00 midnight (GMT).

As for getting your 1%, well you already said you're looking at 20 hours/week (which is far more than enough). With that, stick to bodycount-only rooms (no rockets) and you should easily be on the top 1% if not even 0.5% ;)

Arc Tower is not THAT complicated, it takes time to learn the new maps and for tacticians to find all the right spots, it's always a bit rough when there's a learning process involved.

I enjoyed playing with you guys last night, except for the fact that I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. It was my first time playing Arc Tower. Yeah I'm one of the retarded teammates that Lyulf was screaming at. :lol

One more down. Welcome to the club. My PS3 was sent back today, I should get it next week. But in the meantime I lost my girlfriend and my flat and with it my TV etc. - so I won't be able to play till september when I'm in a new flat, I guess. Live sucks.

Ouch, I hope everything works out for you.

Mine was a 60GB US model. It YLOD'd on Radec Academy, and the funny thing was that the last thing I saw was KZ2's awesome motion blur effects on the frozen screen. :(

Anyone know what the issue is if it turns on and operates for 10 seconds or so, but then YLODs again?

Yeah, but it works long enough for it to sign in to PSN before it crashes.

I'm gonna try vacuuming the air vents, hopefully that's the problem since I've never actually cleaned the airflow system before. I think it's just overheating, because I left it in a cooler place for a while and that was what allowed it to work for as long as it does at the moment.

I'm home and dying to play this again, but don't have the time to download the new firmware, patches and DLC... tomorrow I'm leaving for London, next weekend it is then, I guess no one will be playing the new maps by then though :lol

and I was #94 in the world before the holidays, now I'm ranked #664, meh

Obviously I could take my stuff, but I would have to move it around twice then...it has nothing to do with her. I could use my PS3 on a tube though...but anyway, since this shit started I didn't play any games at all, I'm just running around outside and in the house thinking about shit and...bah. I hate it. This is the worst time of my life so far. Eight years and it's over, fuck, it's like a bad dream although I saw it coming...whatever.

Yep got the same problem while playing KZ (screen froze) and never got it to work again. I had to send it in for repairs (btw sony's service is great got it back in 10 days). How many more PS3 will be Killzowned by Killzone!!!! Every time I play I pray when my PS3 is running fan on full speed gasping for air! damn killzone!! :lol

Oh man, that sucks. Do your best to get it fixed if it's fixable. Also, Google and GAF search tool should help I guess.

Oh man, too many 60gb ps3 owners getting killzowned. My 60gb usually gets pretty loud when playing KZ2, and it has frozen once during a match, but so far so good. I'm still getting paranoid though, maybe I should get a second ps3 just for KZ2 :lol
