Join some on the weekend, and I'll be sure to sign my clan up too. We can consider that something of a friendly game.FFObsessed said:I'll probably join some small free tournaments next week so Lince & I can get some practice against some n00b clans so we'll be at least semi decent when we play some real clan games :lol
We can discuss then how to get this joke of clan back into the swing of things!
Also, are any of you guys gonna be on at 4:30pm-late? I'll be hosting VGEvo KZ2 Fridays tonight, so if you want to join our server you're perfectly welcome. We should get a handful of players at the start, but it really picks up later on.
Add me on PSN - rc94.

It's the perfect place to start, The only reason it wouldn't be is if you cared for the plot in FPS's. Fortunately, the Killzone series doesn't put much emphasis on grand narratives and character development, so you're probably better jumping into the series at it's current peak.

Good long epic game Rick >_<
385 points. Never forget...
edit: woah wtf it's 6am!

I played a few hours tonight and I had such a blast. Great game.
Oh I forgot to ask earlier if anyone can provide me with any Killzone 2 strategy sites to accelerator my learning. Info such as weapon stats, hot spots on maps, callouts, explanation on the pro/con of the classes, badge guide, etc. This badge system is easily understood, but I cant seem to find a list of badges on how they are obtained.
FYI I play medic but I noticed no other medics during my games. Granted I was playing on a beginners only server, but I saw a few engineers which I know is unlocked after medic seeing as how I only have medic so far. I understand if it isn't your style, but at the very least run it during the beginning ranks as you dont have much other options. If you want to run shotgun, go nuts, but for the people using Assault Rifles I don't get why they don't roll medic until something better comes along.
P.S.: How do I accept squad requests. I was squad leader and someone wanted to join in. I press select and go to squad, but all I see is the list of all the squads with no way to accept invites. Is it time sensitive? If so that is VERY inconvenient in a game where you are likely to be in a gunfight.

There should be a list to the far right of the Squads screen listing people still "on their own", with icons indicating those you have sent an invite to as well as those who asked to join.
You simply select and confirm there.
In your case, if he didn't show up on the list, perhaps he joined another Squad while waiting for your approval. Or left the game altogether.
And no, there is no time limit involved.
As for your request about suggestions, hints and stuff, you might want to visit the official tutorial pages (which are STILL hidden in the NEWS section despite there being a FAQ one.)

Thank you for that info. It is irksome how unintuitive it is, but I learn. I really dislike how their website is setup. I can't find what is relevant without some dirt on my hands. Thanks for showing me where the tutorial stuff was. Hell even MGO, as god awful as their website is, had tutorial links on the front page.
How deep is clan support in this game? Coming from the 360, the only game I played with "Clan" support was CoD4 and that materialized as nothing but a tag. I guess next logical question is who has room in their clan for medic?

The clan support is extremely deep. I really can't think of a game which has better clan support than Killzone 2.
Everything from clan setup games, to tournaments and web site support... it's nearly flawless.
I want to start making videos and gifs of Killzone since the game looks so good. How do I manage to get my gifs lower in filesize since this one here is about 6MB and it's doesn't look half as good as the gif's in the OP.
BTW I did optimise it before uploading it but I'm using a very old version of Jasc Animation Shop to make the gifs.

I got the Killzone 2 Map Pack Bundle recently, and all the maps are amazing. They were well worth the money. Just wish it was easier to get the Bolt Gun and the Flamethrower, but oh well. One day, one day, I will get them both and get the trophies, hopefully.

As I said earlier, got this game a week ago. Just finished it, but I must confess the end disapointed me a lot... When
starts talking I was hoping a great scenario move / end twist... but this ?
Don't get me wrong, I loved the game, this is my only disapointment...
What do you think about the ending ?

Killzone 3 ?

JonStark said:
yeah, think disappointment of the story was the general consensus for most people who finished this game. They didn't even spell out the history for you before the game (even though the website has a brilliant backstory). Oh well hope they learned a bit for KZ3 single player.

I'm so angry right now, I was about to throw my controller against my TV when it said for the 15th time tonight " error 4512 - disconnected for the server " after I earned several ribbons...
I'm TOTALY PISSED to play such a good game but not being able to grind my way and reach medals because one match on two ends by me being disconnected by error 4512. How come, after 21 hours playing KZ2 (amazing) MP, I'm not even, half to the medal because I can't end games and earn ribbons.
I'm so pissed because never, I endured connexion issued. Resistance 2 worked fine. BF BC worked fine. BF 1943 works fine. But Killzone 2 is just spitting some shitty netcode to my face.
After several games tonigh, it feels like once I earned a ribbon (assassinated a target or planted 2 charges in R&D, or killed 5 dudes with C4) the game JUST kicks me out of the server FOR FUN. And when I'm hitting back the lobby, the server is still up, but the stats aren't sendable anymore cause I " left " the game already...
I'm so done with this.
Heading back to play LAIR.

I think that's it now. Just the 3 packs. If you want to join the Universal GAF clan, I think Raist will have to free up a space. But he's planning to do that anyway I think.

tomorrow it is, I was playing Folklore waiting for you and by 10:25 I got a phone call and had to leave. Yesterday night I could have played with GAFe King Live (Facism) but I was so pissed about something related to Uni that I had to spare some adrenaline blasting asteroids in Stardust HD for 3 hours...
and KZ2 still looks fantastic, I've been replaying the campaign these days and the wow factor is still intact, tremendous achievement what Guerrilla accomplished without using the PS3 hard disk. I hope Resistance 3 could benefit from Sony tech-share (they're not first party right?) and take the best of Uncharted and Killzone engines... *drools*

ok tomorrow is fine! Sorry I was late, forgot the football was on!
I replayed the SP on hard with no crosshair recently and it was still awesome. Graphics still took me back in places and the game was just pure fun, even a third time through. I think the cruiser level might be my favorite level. Felt like a real invasion. I think with KZ3 they can do a much better job tho. They need to really make something special with the next one.
Just had some really good matches online then... 32 player... on Tharsis... I was quite surprised. :lol A few people were warping but there wasn't much overall lag. Must have had a good host, was a US game as well. Finished top with 58-8! 6-0! nice nice yes yes! Half my kills were with the M4 :lol Which is good because when I first came back I couldn't hit anything with it so I've improved since then. Ready for some free tournaments whenever you want to try some. We'll probably be quite poor at small games but they're best for practice! And I think we had the most fun in those kind of games.
sO yea, i picked this and MGS4 up.
Started Killzone 2 first, love the graphics (lots of blur though that shit hurts my eyes) but holy shit am i not accustomed to the controller and the controls.
After about 10-15 minutes i couldn't keep going so i started MGS4.
WoW MGS4 i'm at
and i can't get myself off of the game.
Will come back to KZ2 later in the weekend

Kittonwy said:We dominated like GAFe KINGZ.
Me and Crush "teh Legend" Dance just had a pretty epic long game. 3-2 down, we just managed to win S&D attack and then finished off with an Assassination attack win. How unfortunate for them. mwahahaa!
Just need one more trophy for KZ2 perfection now. Playing the map packs just then made me wish Guerrilla had given us something a bit more substantial in regards to DLC. Maybe a new co-op mode or even some SP stuff rather than just a few map packs. Treat the game like a platform like Burnout Paradise, but I guess that's only a viable option if you don't plan on bringing out a sequel anytime soon. As much as I'd like that stuff I would rather they put all their effort and resources into just making a KILLZONE 3, which they are doing, so no big deal. It's nice to want things tho.

Eric Boltjes (lead online game designer) just posted a question on the KZ2 forums:
For me it would definitely be "General Lag" certainly not limit people to their own region!

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol Just one thing
Edit: Man I can easily list 5-10 things they need to fix, and that is off the top of my head.
Map Imbalances
Lag
Double Deaths
Class Imbalances
Boost
32 player cluster fucks
The slide show when you play in 32 player games (frame rates drops)
More Better Weapons
The impossible head shots from bots
Bigger more balanced maps
No respawn mode (More game modes)
More classes
Smoke Grenades and the electric grenades (should have been in mp)

Yes! I now have 100% of KZ2 trophies again!
I dedicate this achievement to the memory of Tiddles.
May he rest in peace.
