Killzone Shadow Fall looks fantastic. Have my copy just sitting here waiting. I really enjoyed Killzone 3 and 2. Although 2 a bit more story wise than 3. That heavy gunplay in 2 was fantastic, better than 3. It always seems though that Killzone has an interesting world but GG does nothing really with it. Hope that Shadow Fall fixes that. Am loving the more open sandbox gameplay.

PS: Yes, I love Resistance 3 and would love to see the franchise continue.

Saric looks like he'll be a cool villain.

Also terracide is a really cool word

I read "Saric" as "Sanic"

I still agree though

 

[GloveSlap]

man. I really have the money to buy 2 PS4 games. but I really want 4. not sure what to buy yet

COD, BF4, Killzone and Need for Speed.

I really need help here

Compromise for 3 games and do the Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal at Target on Nov 15th.

Thank OP for the hard work, especially the back story stuff. This will be my first Killzone game so I have no idea what happened in the other games.

 

[Zero315]

Amazon shipped out my copy this morning as well, expected to arrive monday. I was really hoping they would hold off just in case they do end up matching the Target sale. Man, this is gonna make the wait for the system unbearable!

I've been avoiding most of the trailers and stuff, but the odd screenshots and gifs I've seen have gotten me hyped as hell!

 

[Violater]

Unsee that I dare ya

Nice that they unlock all the weapons immediately, but how do they rationalize still locking away attachments/abilities?

Same way as in KZ2. PERFECT balance which makes progression feel really rewarding thus giving you something to strive for.

i wonder which trigger setup i will prefer. i've long held the view that r1/l1 are better for shooting, but i was quickly able to get used to using the triggers when i played shadow fall earlier this week. i didn't end up switching the controls in the settings.

 

[Kane1345]

Unsee that I dare ya

That comparison combined with your avatar = Perfection

With how naturally your index fingers go to the triggers on the DS4 I feel like it would be a uncomfortable to use R1/L1.

Yea, but he is closer to the comic version sans the immensely buffed up physique.

At least he doesn't sound like Patrick Stewart gargling on a testicle, so that's a plus.

Why on Earth would you get CoD, Killzone AND Battlefield within 6 months of each other? I'm going for Killzone and Battlefield.

Man the Higs will always be at the forefront of my favorite enemy designs.

Because I want to experience 60fps 64 player Battlefield! Killzone takes priority at the moment though

 

[SwiftDeath]

I'm so excited for this game

God I hope it lives up to my irrationally high expectations

 

[Figboy79]

People hate on Resistance 2 (me included) because it was like a frankenstein. It removed most of what people originally loved about R:FoM and then tacked on CoD controls and mechanics as salt in the wound.

I don't play Call of Duty, because I'm not a fan, so I guess I didn't notice.

My main complaint with Resistance 2 was definitely the removal of the weapon wheel, but I loved everything else. Controls felt smooth and responsive, just like Fall of Man. The two weapon limit was annoying, that's for sure. I thought the story, and campaign design was very enjoyable.

The chapter with Hale going through the dark hotel filled with Grims is still one of my favorite moments of the series. But hey, differing opinions and all that, so it's no big deal.

Man the Higs will always be at the forefront of my favorite enemy designs.

Goddamn the hype train keeps rolling on here, it's so hard to resist buying a launch PS4 right now. As for Killzone, thank you for the story updates in the OP. Will the game be a standalone story or will I be lost if I haven't played the others?

 

[Omiee]

Are we going to start a clan? What is the clan support like? Clan support on ps3 was awesome!!

got my shadow fall bundle pre ordered and cant wait for this game to drop.

 

[GreatMightySymp]

Anyone know if this would be a good pickup for someone who hasn't really played many shooter titles but is interested in learning?

That trailer from E3 blew me away, but I'm basically a newb in the genre so if the game is basically aimed at the hardcore who have played the previous ones it'd be a waste of money if it took an insane amount of time to get decent at it.

If it's anything like the Super Stardust series, it starts at a pretty accessible level and ramps up in difficulty over several levels/waves.

It should be as good as anything for a beginner.

Pretty sure Killzone is nothing like Super Stardust.

Wow, I thought I was still in the Resogun OT. That's embarrassing.

I figured. Resogun is a game that gets in your head.

Don't admit your mistakes! Pretend that you were talking about the post-launch co-op horde mode.

 

[TheRealTalker]

We barely know about the main guy it is weird

We've seen his face in the body scan right?... or was that a placeholder face?

Because after that February demo the guy is always wearing a mask

 

[Alias03]

Mine! Thanks

From what I understand, he's mute, or at least wont talk much. GG is going for the whole "you are the soldier" thing where the perspective never shifts from your eyes, or something.

and I fricken love that. its way more immersive.

He does talk. His voice actor is actually pretty shitty. Everything is first person so I doubt we'll go too much into him as a character unless it's a playable segment.

yea his voice actor sucks, he sounds weak and pathetic

Killzone has no aim assist, so unless you have very good reflexes you might find MP frustrating. But then again, everyone will have no aim assist so it might be so tough.
