Official Killzone 2 -- For Hellghan!!!!

[Spliff]

I tried Resistance 2 online and found it mind numbingly boring.

That being said, I'm already bored with Killzone I think...I find it hard to have fun with the game.

That being said, I'm already bored with Killzone I think...I find it hard to have fun with the game.

Resistance 2 took everything that made the first successful and threw it out and they tried to take lil' elements from a multitude of shooters like COD4, Halo, and UT3. But failed.

I think you just need to play KZ with me, perhaps then you'd have a blast!? I'll be on all this weekend.

It's just the controls, after the patch they seemed great but then after settling into them the changed were hardly noticeable. And I can't even begin to describe all the times I've lined up headshots and somehow magically missed. Another thing killing it for me is the fact that aiming down the sights is barely more accurate than the hip-fire. Dunno, I've been playing it to give it a chance, already got top rank, gonna get all the badges and see...just for some reason not enjoying the game. I think it could also be aside from all but 2 maps, the rest are terrible IMO and just funnel people into 1 or 2 points.

glad i'm not the only person that has a problem with this. in COD it was perfect to get more accurate shots on the target. it would be great if they could fix this in Killzone2 for their ragdoll responses.

I have to agree the aiming still seems off. I also have had people in my sights and missed. Other times I am sure I have missed an enemy with hip fire but I still manage to get a kill.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

hell i still think its funny that even when crouched and aiming down the sites its still incredibly inaccurate.

 

[Starkiller]

I can get a head shot looking down the barrel of an assault rifle with one shot. The controls are different but I like them, if everything handles exactly like COD I'd be a bit worried. I like the heft of the weapons. I love the maps, there's so much detail, so much action going on, it's chaos and I love it. The one with the extreme wind is just an example of how awesome and huge these maps can be.

I hope we get more downloadable maps in the near future.

i've lined up headshots perfectly with the sights, pressed the trigger lightly so it fires once, and it misses. i fire in bursts, missed. i just hold the trigger and fire away and it magically gives me my headshot 3 seconds into auto fire. it doesn't make sense.

speaking of CoD4, looks like i'll be getting back to that if something doesn't change with KZ. oh, CoD...i should've never turned my back on you.

exactly...it's literally "hit or miss" with the aiming in this game. it really bothers me when the shotgun has better accuracy from a distance than an assault rifle does.

 

[MinMay]

I just had 27 kills 6 deaths...not bad for about 2 hours of online matches. I have must have been lucky....then the next few maps...average about 15 kills.

Awesome game...loving it!

the shotgun is the bane of my existance, i've been picked off with HEADSHOTS standing well beyond one-hit-kill range with it. HOW????

the game really has a problem with balancing, like with the RPG's guys have killed me almost point-blank range with it(not that i have a prob with that) but it doesn't hurt the guy with the RPG one bit. and i know it's the assault class so they have double xp, but a missile at that range should kill both of us.

i don't get how a game can claim so much realism and miss these things.

mind you all I love the campaign as i don't have a problem with their "heavy shooter there" but in multiplayer there's just no excuse.

I'm finding multiplayer somewhat of a challenge also, but haven't progessed too far yet. how many 1000's of xp do you need to get a sniper rifle?? just spent a bit more time playing and to my excitment i managed to unlock the ability to place turrets. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[hairlesswookiee]

^^^i think you are Lt. now so you have a couple more ranks to go. i also just unlocked the engineer badge, but have been playing the medic to unlock the "field medic" ribbon for healing guys with the health packs.

 

[darthman]

Cool I'll keep at it. Finding it hard to adapt to this one after all the COD 4 & 5 i've been plaiyng.

 

[Spliff]

the Scout Class(when you get the Sniper) is the last rank, you needs 2800XP to get it.

 

[Starkiller]

I've had it for 3 days and I have about 1500 pts. Scout class is the best and I cannot wait to unlock it. Ppl with RPGs are ridiculous, but usually when they kill me from that distance they die as well. What annoys me is that teammates get in my way when I throwing a grenade in a tight corridor or something and I end up committing suicide...

 

[Spliff]

Scout is pretty sweet, I feel kinda guilty about it but i think it's fun picking up an assault rifle and camping at the top of some stairs or in a corridor with the invisibility on unloading into any unlucky person coming through it.

i got half a team doing that once, lol.

Anyone know how the radar works? Sometimes I can see the enemies and sometimes not....is it only when they are firing or being fired at?

Sabatours(?) don't show up on the radar as you have to point at them for them to appear on it. They are probably the scariest class when there are 32 people playing. There was one match where the other team always took either my name or my friends. Our whole team kept randomly shooting us at times because they were paranoid . Snipers also don't show up unless their cloak is off of course as well. Also if they hiding behind a wall outside of your LOS then you won't see them as well...Engineers mostly.

I've been having fun with multiplayer playing mostly Assault class. Shoot 3 rockets then run around and get more kills with the revolver. Double health helps a lot when dueling with pistols. Nothing beats boosting into the target and killing him .
