Yeah, the clan set up sucks a bit. However, it is likely that a lot of those people won't even play online all that much after a few weeks and we should be able to clean house a little at that time. Perhaps we can set up 1 or 2 clans for the more committed players and set aside a clan or 2 for those that just want people to play with casually. I imagine myself playing almost every day and I would like to be in a clan with people with the same intent.

This is sounding like a great deal of fun already. Too bad my stores wouldn't sell me a copy.
The stat tracking is awesome. This feels like it's breaking some new ground with the online.

THIS GAME IS THE BEST GAME EVERnib95 said:
I THOUGHT IT WAS ALRIGHT, SOLID SHOOTER, BUT I DON'T SEE WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT
THIS GAME SUCKS!
Now imagine the content of this post, posted for pages and pages and pages. It's going to be fantastic!
There will undoubtedly be some quality, Nib/Truant level impressions sprinkled throughout, though. Those will be great, I sometimes like reading GAF impressions over actual reviews.

I personally think the over whelming majority will be positive. Aside from the lag talk, the reception to the demo was largely very positive, and I actually thought it was one of the weaker levels or segments in the entire game. I did say this on numerous occasions prior to the demo's release. In-fact, I'd wanted GG to use a different level to showcase the game, but I can understand exactly why they chose Corinth River. It is designed to be an opening tutorial level, and as such the intensity, design and pacing is set in an appropriate way. To ease people in so to speak.
In any case, after I eat, I might start writing my review up.
I wonder if Guerilla Games want to expand Killzone ( like Killzone liberation 2 for PSN or Killzone Warz or Helghan date sim ) in the next years or will go to new IP after Killzone 2 .
I just hope Sony don't force them to stay forever with Killzone ( like what happend with MS and Bungie ) , if Guerilla guys want to do something else and new after Killzone 2 I hope Sony just let them do that .
personally I want to see some mecha combat game like Zone of the Enders from them , Sony already own Omeega Boost IP so ..yeah .

I'd actually like the guys over at GG to take on something new. They're obviously very talented. Sure, it would most likely still be an FPS, yeah, but something with a significantly different tone than the KZ series would be nice. Maybe something a bit more adventure orientated, in the vain of HL2 or Bioshock?dreamer3kx said:
Although, they'll probably want to expand on the KZ name, especially if KZ2 does as well as it seems like it is going to do, and who can blame them.

The universe is pretty big, so they can do a Killzone game without it being "Killzone."
I'll say it again but a space fighter game based on the first extrasolar war would be epic.

Game's I want in the Killzone universe after KZ2:
Space Combat Sim - Like the old Wing Commander games or Privateer 2 (<3) But with the ability to land on planets and go off exploring.
Free roaming FPS - In the vain of a STALKER or Fallout 3
I'd also like another Killzone: Liberation style game. Top down view, tactical shooter. Maybe combine this with the Space Combat Sim, so you can fly through space in first person in your own ship, then when you land on a planet and go off exploring the gameplay is in the style of Killzone: Liberation. Have big open environments, vehicles, exploring, lot's of action, RPG elements, back story etc.

I want KZ3 and KZ4 lol. But I wouldn't mind a Killzone fps game with more of an open world or RPG esque aspect about it. For example, when going through a battered up city ruin, why not have the ability to instead of just kill enemies, talk to the occupants of the city, buy, repair, upgrade weapons, talk to vendors in shops, walk around check out casualties, talk to other soldiers etc. I've always wanted more war esque fps to offer these kinds of RPG like aspects. But they never do. If they did, I think it could really strengthen the narrative, bonds between fellow comrades and give greater emphasis to the mission at hand.
In Saving Private Ryan, the build up's to the tense battles serve as a delicious starter of what's to come. And really help the viewer to understand and relate to each of the characters. Games should really take advantage of similar methods. More prolonged character studies or narrative segments. If in a shooter you spent half an hour talking to scared and panicking comrades, being briefed, setting up mines in prep for the immanent enemy attack etc, how much more tense would the actual battle be when it finally arrived?

I've been playing through the campaign, and man, the visuals are just so damn impressive. I mean, everyone has seen a lot of stuff in trailers, but playing it yourself is something entirely different. The way everything moves is just so damn convincing. This very well might be the finest looking FPS I've ever played. I mean, Crysis is still doing more from a technical perspective, but it doesn't quite have the same level of perfection due to its wide open world. I really don't know how they pulled all this off, but it's damn impressive.
There are so many smaller details that I'm sure many people will fail to appreciate, but when they all come together, the picture they create is like art in motion.

Playing that web based game and hearing what sounded like Captain Narville, I'd like to see a PSP spin off with him.Totobeni said:

So is the online clan thread and all that hard work Full Recovery did thrown out the window now? Since there are already 3 neogaf clans and the game hasn't even come out yet! :lol
Do we just join any gaf clan we can get into? I'm confused now.

I find your opinions constantly clash with my own. You don't enjoy killing Heavies, and you don't like the weapon in question. Both elements that many reviewers praised and loved.
You only use that weapon for a brief segment or two in the entire game, and it's absolutely fantastic. I personally wish you could use it more often in the game. Admittedly it is heavily overpowered against ordinary Helghan, but the flying bots later in that segment semi balance that out. You're only made to feel like a king for brief moments. Either way, it's magnificent when you do get it. You literally create a symphony of death. Dancing bodies every where. The number of grins that weapon game me....
