thanks for clarifying, had not noticed. Hype +1
30 years after KZ3 Templar's old buddy Rico will either be a General or court martialed. Both positions offer plenty opporunities for an assassin to apply bullet to head.
I want the Vektan and Helghast weapons to feel even more different than before. Vektan railgun pew-pew gun for run and gun and other weapons that are precise and fast to deploy, but weak or with small area of effect explosives. Helghan made weapons that are big, loud, take time to aim, have lots of rounds and fire fast and heavy slugs, but inaccurate, with lots of tracers and or smoke effects and highly explosive materials, collateral damage be damned.
Yeah, notice the coloring is reversed, even on the player model's back...

Or he is just a washed up old dude drinking whiskey in a shitty slum apartment on the Vektan side of the wall... and playing as the Helghan assassin, one of the optional side missions is to put a bullet in his dome.
Edit: I really hope GG reads NeoGaf... if so, everyone hates Rico, let us end him.

Concept artist are the guys that draw pictures. Look at what that guys fields of expertise is in, he's not a concept artist.

There are rumours that KZ:SW was running only using approx: 1.5GB of RAM.

I'd like to think that 60fps would be possible if they have approx 7.5GB of RAM to play with for the final game.

I started with KZ2 as well but I did skim through a back story timeline of the universe that they used to have on their website. For whatever reason they took it down, but some fans did manage to copy all the text to a wiki, unfortunately without all the artwork that went along with it.
http://killzone.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline
In my opinion you could start at 2 and still enjoy the game, but it would be more enjoyable if you did skim through this to get a brief understanding of what's going on. Really no game in the franchise does a good job of settting up the back story for you, which is a shame because they really detailed it out (they tell you all the major events that happened starting in 2055 with World War 3 all the way through the beginning of Killzone 1 in 2357).
These new pieces of concept art (along with the artist's comment, "Hope soon there will be more pics of this dude") makes me think the game will feature dual campaigns a la Halo 2.
I haven't been following the KZ:SF threads super closely, so please forgive me if these images have already been posted and whether or not the above assumption is already old news (or debunked):

Snowy mountains in the background too,seems like we'll get another Icy Incursion.
Seems unlikely, you'd need to redo lots of animation work at this point. I imagine they'll improve IQ, effects, etc.

Concept artists are guys who make concept art.
There are tons of 3D concept artists these days.

Isn't it a bit short-sighted to make animations that can't scale/use interpolation or whatever wizard's jizz makes console ports look just fine in terms of animation on PC at 60 fps?
Why would they ever need to prepare for PC ports? It'll never happen. And I disagree, often PC ports look awful in terms of animations.
Its 1.5gb vram, not 1.5gb total ram. So game wasnt designed around 1.5gb ram, but around 1.5gb vram and 2.5-3.5gb other ram, thats a big difference. Even if they have now 8gb unified, they will be using max 3-4gb for VRAM and VRAM wont affect fps in that great way.
Most animation scales up to whatever framerate. Not like the animation in this game is anything special, anyway. I can only hope most of what we saw will be scrapped, animation-wise.

Fair enough, but searching for 3d concept art pretty much only gives me pictures of raw untextured 3d models, nothing like those 2 pictures you linked.

I just don't think animations are designed around framerates anymore. There are points designated for the animation and the rest is interpolated. Jett is referring to the same thing.
Animations looking awful is not the same as animations being locked at 30 fps. Halo PC has an excellent demonstration of this as you can run the game at 60 fps and see the animation running at 30.

This could be a truly spectacular launch.

Their launch lineup is looking good so far. Killzone, Watchdogs, driveclub and obviously several as of yet announced third party titles.
Why do you think that? just because of Killzone?
From the one's shown so far I'm just excited about KZ,I don't need to buy a PS4 for Watch Dogs.
and first party as well.

Great launch lineup indeed: Killzone Shadow Fall is a far superior launch title than say... Resistance Fall of Man.

RFOM was awesome. No one does guns like Insomniac.
If it's Killzone 2 style MP then I'm all over this shit.

And you know this how?

Yeah, it seems way better than the current gen launch I would say. KZ and Watchdogs alone would be enough for me.

Infamous isn't launch aligned?
We don't know.
Trickster

True, but it never hurts to have solid games on your new console, even if they're not exclusive. And Watchdogs looks pretty solid imo.
If they have infamous 3 as a launch title, then I think they might already have the strongest launch lineup ever. At least of the last few gens.

woah lets not make any crazy assumptions just yet guys
RFOM was a magical experience at the time
Sure, if that and Infamous are in the launch lineup then I can say it's stellar.

We don't know yet. R:FoM was an outstanding game back in the day imo. But no doubt we'll be impressed by K:SF
There was a GG staff playing on stage during the reveal. They got burned really hard for KZ2, so I doubt they'd go even further than that by pretending there's a guy here playing. That's Microsoft Kinect reveal stuff.
I hope not.

WTF?!?!!!!!!!!! How is this possible? Okay I know technically how, but what will the game look like apon release? And can they really retool everything to take advantage of say 6 GBs of usable graphics?
There is no way that they'll have too many big games at launch,just saying.

Sorry... based on the backlash, it's obvious a lot of you loved Resistance. IMO that game was a letdown (just like the rest of the PS3 launch titles). At the end of the day i enjoyed the Killzone series far more than i enjoyed the Resistance series (on the PS3)... and ultimately i'm very excited that KZSF is a PS4 launch title.
I think we are all PS4 & KZ supporters... my apologies for not liking Resistance.
