strange mate ,didnt have any issues with the beta,but its quite frustrating now with the retail copy .How many games have you played approx.?

That's for the downloadable copy though. But yeah; that's crazy-large, and the version on the PS Store should carry some sort of 8GB minimum card size warning. I guess you can't play online without downloading the patch first? Not sure how these things work.

You're right, you can't play MP without the patch installed. I tried it.
8-10 I would guess.. But I did have a game where the game crashed while I was on the waiting list just before a match started. And once the host had problems and we all got disconnected because of that, but never had problems connecting to a game.

Still trying to wrap up KZ1 and start Liberation before this drops. Man OG KZ is a real POS at times. Helghast start becoming noob tubers like bad, and your squadmates are completely useless. And the checkpoints make no damn sense. Its like GG literally forgot to insert them at times.

That is a monster. I'm so glad I went with the physical copy.

Tomorrow morning. Don't know which time zone.
Ok thanks.
No issues on my end either. Sounds more like it is related to your setup.
I was told my embargo ends tomorrow 9 am GMT+1.
Retail version it is then.

Digital version for me. Can't wait till the 10th!
I've got my eye on you, chap. My hopes and dreams rest in your hands.
The retail version took 3.1GB less than the PSN version before and still does now.

Yeah, I bought it on PSN for I think £5.40 a couple of months ago, and played it to completion. I had quite positive memories of it from the PS2 version, but I really didn't like it upon replaying. Technically it still felt like it needed a lot of work (I swear, it has no improvements over the PS2 version), the controls were twitchy and imprecise and in the wide-open outdoor areas the draw distance is just horrible. On the other hand, I thought the level design was generally good, the AI was pretty good and I like the overall premise, the art and technological design. Overall it's not a great game, but I'm glad the series has improved since then.

It's crazy how much space this game takes up. I prefer to have digital copies of games for the sake of convenience and portability, but it sucks when you constantly have to delete things out of your library to make room. You would think Sony would make more money if they sold their memory cards at a loss so people could actually buy digital games. It would be like going to a grocery store that doesn't allow shopping carts and only allows hand baskets. Seems like I have no choice but to get the physical copy.
lol you don't say. I really wanted that pre-order M224-A1 but 4,5 gigs is just too much.

That must have additional assets in it. If those assets will translate into playable content remains to be seen.

The patch might have fixed this but thought I'd flag it up in case anyone here encounters this.
I got stuck on the Valor Card screen earlier - game was still running but I couldn't get beyond that screen. Restarted the game and it took me straight to the Valor screen again - not even the main menu came up.
Only way to remedy it was delete and reinstall the game. Which took about 3 hours as the wi-fi here isn't great.
This was pre-patch though (and was something people flagged in the beta) so hopefully they have got rid of that bug.

Already pre ordered and have it pre loaded. Was hoping to get a couple more days out of the beta then move straight on to the full game without missing a day of killzone. Sigh.
My Vita doesn't even show the game size after the patch, lol. Has to be pretty big. Only 5:30 hours left
I want this!!!
Well Rayman Legends will suffice for now

Wow, stupid phone...
I still can't believe that I just bought the game for half price. And it supposed to come out on friday haha! What's even better is that I'm on holiday for the rest of the week.
It's a DD though, had to make some room for it. Goodbye Soul Sacrifice.
I hope it's not just preloading... That would be depressing.

There was a patch that added on multiplayer and a 5th chapter to the campaign. However, the game fails when you try and update it. Cant make a connection to the now offline server. For the PSP you could just find the files online, dump them to your memory stick and then run the update patch from the games area. On the Vita you don't have access to the file system, so you can't manually place the patch and run the update.
So it comes down to, I've never seen anyone get the patch successfully applied on the Vita and really hate having an incomplete Killzone Liberation on my Vita. Does anyone have a trick to get it to patch?
There is no way of getting Chapter 5 on Vita, I asked Guerrilla about it.

Did they tell you why?
Do you think that there is any way to convince them to make it compatible?
Wish they would just patch it into the game that you download from the store so you didn't even have to worry about updating the game yourself.
They didn't.
Let's start one of those twitter movements lol.
If it wasn't on a website or the Vita could load it in it's own browser you maybe could download it but I don't really know.

Slightly offtopic but – it's kinda funny how you always use the phrase "fellow GAFfer". Like every time.
I don't mind but I certainly notice when you're around, it's like your version of "would you kindly..."

That's the The_Monk's thing

Even if you could download it then you still need to run it and I don't know if the Vita would let you do that. I kind of want to try and see if there is a way to hack the original UMD dump and integrate the files, but that might be beyond my expertise. For such a high profile franchise of Sony's and for a new portable game in the franchise coming out, I don't get why this was never addressed.

Anyone using this grip? Planning to buy one as well.
Works great for me, I'd like to try a Hori, but this one is good enough. No hand pains, so far.
