OT = Official Thread

Thank you, I am now one step closer to understanding official GAF vernacular.

 

[Ricky_R]

Going by the thread's subtitle I take it GG left the stone age rain?

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Hot damn this turned out nice.

 

[CF22]

Not a big fan of first person shooters but Killzone feels like the first game I should play on my PS4. Maybe it'll change my views towards FPS.

 

[makingmusic476]

I'm still conflicted I should get this or bf4 for a launch game. Help me sony gaf

You posted this in the official thread knowing exactly what kind of responses you'd get.

I'd say you're already leaning Killzone.

It's what I'm getting.

 

[TimeEffect]

Going by the thread's subtitle I take it GG left the stone age rain?

It's special Vektan rain. Yeah, that's it. Rain on Vekta is different.

 

[Respawn]

I'm sorry but people are fooling themselves if they think KZ is going to do what Halo did. KZ will be great, perhaps the best launch title of this gen, but it simply can't do what Halo did for console gaming/FPS.

You're right it will be better. Had to say this to you since you couldn't leave it be.

 

[popokarimu]

Heads up for anyone who preordered this at Amazon, they are suddenly showing it as in stock and shipping now.

Killzone Shadow Fall:
Pros: 1080p 60 FPS MP, very likely SP campaign story will be better than BF4, SP campaign will be more open ended and less corridor style maps, free MP maps, customizable game modes, all guns unlocked at start, dat chirp

Cons: max 24 player count, Killzone series considered good but not great by many, dat rain?!

Battlefield 4:
Pros: 64 player count, huge maps with destruction, vehicles, lots of guns

Cons: DLC maps may fragment community, time spent unlocking guns/attachments may take a long time, crappy SP campaign story

But either game should be fine, really. I am going with Killzone because I didn't like the way DLC maps fragmented the community in BF3, and Killzone seems to be a better 'next gen showcase game'

Hmm. Not the case for me.

 

[Joeki11a]

This will be the first game you will play right?

 

[Rebel Leader]

Hmm. Not the case for me.

IT BEGINS!

[K' Dash]

Just got my copy, now we wait.

 

[Joeki11a]

Hmm. Not the case for me.

just walk to gamestop and get it...

I have the game for 4 days now

 

[RoboPlato]

I am more excited for this than any other single player FPS campaign of the past few years. It's taking what I loved about older FPS in terms of level design and mixing it with next gen tech. Everything they've said about the single player was how I was hoping FPS would evolve and it's great that they're going to be setting that standard on day 1 of next gen. I really hope they pull it off.

 

[Kssio_Aug]

Wow, nice topic!
Ill do my subscription.

 

[DangerMouse]

I really hope they address this too. I think this criticism has been leveled by many reviewers at each one of their games. I don't know if they just can't fix it or won't out of stubbornness.

Reading the Killzone timeline proves to me that they definitely have a rich backstory to the whole game, but you would never know it from playing the games.

Yeah, still so much potential. Now would be a great time for it to really fully come through in-game being a launch game and given the time jump making everything new, hopefully our character is pretty memorable as well.

 

[A Serious Man]

You're right it will be better. Had to say this to you since you couldn't leave it be.

Halo: CE is important because it proved that consoles were a legitimate platform for FPS's, ushered in the console FPS era and shifted attention to multiplayer gaming. Killzone (or any other FPS) cannot do those things. They've already happened, they are one-time events. All Killzone can do is build upon them.

 

[PrimaNocta]

Next Gen....is.....here.....bitches! Can't wait to get my hands on my PS4.

 

[Strider]

Heads up for anyone who preordered this at Amazon, they are suddenly showing it as in stock and shipping now.

Thanks for pointing this out.

I changed my order to free shipping since it's still estimated to arrive before the 15th. Saved me a few dollars

 

[Jigolo]

The good old days:

Can't wait to play Shadowfall

 

[paperheart]

Radec, fantastic job on the OT man. Wonderful.

I've played and enjoyed both Killzone 2 and 3, so I can not wait to play Shadow Fall. I already have my copy that I got from GameStop on the 30th of October, so I'm ready for the 15th!

 

[Kydd BlaZe]

Got this preordered and payed off along with my PS4.

Gonna be glorious.

Loving the OT!

 

[Courage]

PM me your PSN ID guys, I'll add you to play MP.

 

[Neuromancer]

You can add bots to online matches for any Warzone you create.
Human players can replace bots during the match, to ensure that there’s always a consistent amount of players present in the Warzone.
You can even add bots to only one faction, to allow for ‘Bots vs. Humans’ type Warzones.

Very cool!!!

 

[SniperHunter]

Just got my copy, now we wait.

I will pick it tomorrow

 

[Original Man]

Hmm. Not the case for me.

mines said the same thing, but all I had to do was refresh the shipping speed and the delivery date was changed to the 12th.

 

[Mik_Pad]

Wow, nice OT!! I'm sad I have to wait 3 more weeks for my imported PS4 to arrive :/

 

[Nakazato]

Got my copy just need my ps4 to DL it ................

 

[Rebel Leader]

Mine still says the 15th

Not here

 

[TheRealTalker]

It's special Vektan rain. Yeah, that's it. Rain on Vekta is different.

Must be the extra weight of gravity due to the planets sheer size compared to Earth... Not so much to harm humans but enough to have heavy rain....

Spoiler

tales from my ass

 

[Grinchy]

I don't even want my copy to ship early. It's hard enough waiting for PS4 as it is.

 

[kittens]

Do we know how thorough the customization options are for Warzones? I want specifics. What can be toggled on / off, what has a range of options (movement speed?), etc. A video of all the options or a written list would be fantastic.

 

[illmatic22]

Thank you for the welome to next gen. Body is ready.

 

[Sum-Mischief]

I think I be downloading this in the background. I hope to play early morning ...

 

[Alias03]

Do we know all the MP game modes yet? I know there are a total of 8 and 4 of them are new so I'm curious. I hope there is a CTF game mode (both Battlefield and COD took out CTF) cause that is always my fav game mode.

 

[Oozer3993]

I already have this sitting on my shelf. I just need the PS4 to play it. Just 1 more week to go.

 

[Rebel Leader]

XXXXXXX:Thank you.
I have successfully changed the shipping speed for your order and still the delivery date is this coming November 15th. I am so sorry about this. Since the item is in demand, we tried to supply all the customer who ordered the item. Do not worry, I will a create a note about this to our account specialist and request to have the delivery date move to a much earlier day.

But If I buy a new copy I can get it earlier

kidding about the gif =p

 

[Psychoward]

Nice OT, great title, hopefully awesome game. I can't believe we're a little over a week away.

Apparently the main character,

Spoiler

fuck knows what his name is,

is surrounded by some sort of futuristic distortion field which hides him from enemies but as a side effect, gives off the illusion of the rain flying straight through the ground.

This would explain why in the MP the rain splashes realistically off the ground, the troopers just don't have that form of cutting edge technology.

 

[X-Frame]

Wow, absolutely fantastic OP Radec!

7 days left!

 

[Ghost Cell]

Fantastic OP. This will be the game I christen my PS4 with. Really looking forward to the single player. Hopefully it lives up to the hype.

 

[beast786]

I just checked my killzone 2 stat.

456 hours of MP

 

[Aspiring]

Oh man amazon are also listing knack as in stock.

With people that have this in the launch day bundle with amazon, will they ship the game out first or both at the same time? I have the knack bundle.

But my order for Killzone still says estimated shipping November 15 : (

Hope it ships today I want it : (

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Oh man amazon are also listing knack as in stock.

I preordered Killzone separately, and it still says ETA of the 15th, even though it's showing as in stock.

They'll ship the game separately, starting tomorrow I'm guessing.

 

[Empty]

excellent op. i have really high hopes for this. i hope guerilla can deliver like they did with kz2.

 

[Aspiring]

I preordered Killzone separately, and it still says ETA of the 15th, even though it's showing as in stock.

I too ordered seperatly and mine is saying the same : ( hope it changes today I want it : (

They'll ship the game separately, starting tomorrow I'm guessing.

I do wonder but I think it will be together as it's a bundle. Who knows though.
