Killzone 3

PaddyBomb

What were they thinking with the Marksman class? The best AR in the game goes to the sniper class. An absolute beast of a machine pistol goes to them too. Crazy

A popular explanation to the ending currently circulating the interwebs:

Apparently in the game there is a mural of Radec, Stahl, Visari and a bloke who looks the spit of Visari (a double maybe?), i don't know where this mural is (it is there apparently) but i'll check the opening credits when i get home. In the opening credits Visari's daughter is seen to pull her hand away from her father and feign disgust, this is believed to be because she realizes it is not her father. Therefore it can be concluded that the 'Visari' that was killed by Rico was the aforementioned double, thus we can believe that the character that lands on Helghan at the end of the game is the real Visari!!! DUN DUN DUN!!!!

I don't fecking believe it.. This is exactly what I was thinking earlier, never got a chance to post though..!

I think if you also check ending of Killzone 2 Visari does say something smart to him in that (or his double).. All points lead to Visari and him coming back will only lead to an awesome game and story, unlike that of Killzone 3.. I hated that Stahl dude..

NOTE DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED IT..

wonder who that was getting off the space ship... I think it could be Visari.. Even though he is dead, but that would make the game better.. Them 2 Helghast leaders where just so annoying..

Anyways I have just got to the demo part in it on Elite so may finish that today or tomorrow...

Hehe whist I already did post it ...

Btw YouSavedMyLife nice sig

It's plausible but i found it hard to believe.

If Visari was still alive then he would have returned to rule at some point in the 6 months that elapsed after his death. That said i still think it would be great if he was brought back though given Helghan seemed to be obliterated i wonder how the Helghast would be able to come back from that.

Good point.. But tbh if you faked your own death would you show your face before 6 months .. I know I wouldn't... Stahl just wore down the ISA now if Visari is back I hope he just destroys them and Killzone 4 will probably be the last one, but never know..

WolfForager

To further back up my claims:

I'm sure you've noticed this, but in the scene before you reach the start menu when "Visari" is giving his speech, you can see Radec, Stahl and a soldier on a platform from which a shuttle is leaving, once the shuttle has left Stahl shoots the soldier to eliminate any witnesses, obviously whoever is on this shuttle is very VERY important... *cough* Visari *cough*

was it not radec that done the shooting?.. also is radec not dead? did we not kill him at end of 2nd one?..

Yeah it was Radec that shot him.. Also at the end of that scene it appears this was said: ''Sir we have to move the ISA are here''... That obviously means that someone got away before the ISA could get to them AKA Visari

WolfForager

Either way, the soldier was still shot :P I think this happened well before the end of KZ2

Ohh yes silly me haha... I posted an extra bit just there if you want to check it out in previous comment.. not sure what it means though

WolfForager

Yep, i think we can safely conclude that if there is indeed a KZ4, Visari will make one hell of a return!

TestTransmission

Anyone playing this with the sharpshooter?

WarZoneBrother

More from watching the vid again...
The person who is the Vasari look alike says ''all preparations are in order... And also ''the package is ready''...

I fecking loved Visari so I hope to god that KZ4 does come and we see him return and possibly wipe out all ISA.. Because personally wiping them out would be the best way to go

Just had some really good games in Warzone there....on my own.:( Twice in a row I got over 14000 points. I think I have my new weapon combo sorted. I'm unstoppable. :pac:

I really really hate it when people just sit around (in doorways too) waiting for people to come to them or they are sniping. They seem to forget that there are objectives to be achieved. Sometimes I find that I'm the only one heading towards the objective. :mad:
Hence, why I die a lot but seem to get some points for objectives.

What class/loadouts are you all going for?
I'm playing medic, fully kitted out with both the top weapons for the medic
with the extra ammo perk. No need to worry about collecting ammo for me!

Hehe I am one of those snipers

Sniping is just unbeatable.. But I only snipe on certain maps which I know.. I think it's fair for snipers to stay and kill enemies that are going towards the objectives too.. But what is gay is in one of the maps the ISA spawn point every time theres campers with RPG's sitting in there beside ammo crate firing rockets every 2 secs just waiting for someone to come through.. It is one of the jetpack maps..

YouSavedMyLife

Maining the Eng at the moment. Unlocked everything bar the last sidearm. Putting Turrets in camper type spots in the corners of rooms, or facing corners of hallways so people walk through and even if the rocket misses them it hits a fall and blows them up The last LMG unlock is a beast of a weapon. In fire fights i drop down to crouch and it decreases the crosshair spread immensely. The other LMG is handy for long range maps.

Second class is the Tact only cause if someone on my team isnt using Tact and we dont take spawns and the enemy do your team will get owned hard. Recon with the Silenced SMG is a great run and gun set up also.

PaddyBomb

I'm using Tactician at moment and unlocking Infiltrator with my unlock points as I get them. Really like the assault rifle in this class and the bots get you a lot of assist points with a few kills a game.

Too many Marksmen in this game and it's really frustrating when you seem to be the only person going for the objective. The controls are perfect, not too heavy and not too light but I think they've messed around with the multiplayer a bit too much. All though I'm enjoying it, I'd like to see a few changes and a few more things from KZ2 added in.

kearneybobs

There way too many snipers in this game. Like every other multiplayer shooter out there.

Any specific reasoin as to why I get stuck on the same map sometimes when playing Warzone. It's usually the one from KZ2 with the mechs.
And that one never seems to be included in the list of maps when you get to pick which one you wanna play on next?

Because its a DLC map, as is the TDM map Blood Gracht. So they have them set in there own little playlist. So when it came to a vote and say Blood Gracht won the map vote people wouldnt get kicked who didnt have the DLC pack. Its kinda annoying, but whats way more annoying is that everytime i search for a game it seems to put me into the DLC maps playlist. I leave Blood Gracht cause i wanna play some other map and it brings me back into another lobby playing Blood Gracht :mad:

tonydude

That map with and jetpacks, does any1 ever shut down the emp, its an easy 150 xp. Way too many snipers, although i came upon a nest of them tonight and knifed 4 of them and set up my lvl 3 turret to mow down 3 spawners running out against it good times. Started playing killzone 2 story tonight nearly finished, then onto 3

tok9

Hey lads, just wondering is it worth getting a move for Killzone 3?

YouSavedMyLife

Im starting to tire of the multiplayer in this game. Operations is just way to unbalanced in the Helghast's favor. Same goes for Warzone, planting bombs or capping the propeganda speaker are close to impossible on some maps. Thats if people actually do go for Obj. Camping is rife in this game as people know is pointless to go for the Obj so they camp areas, which i am guilty of. After a few games of camping choke points i realised, hey im just not having fun. Plus i find the whole aiming from the hip vs ADS mechanic is annoying. In CoD and many other "modern" shooters ADS is the way to go except at extreme close ranges. But in KZ3 Hipfiring is king except at extreme long ranges. It all feels like a game of luck when i come up to an enemy and we go gun on gun. Not to mention the spawns. I think the spawn nade in KZ3 was better than the spawn points we have in this game. Well the main peev i have with it is that the enemy is invulnerable for a certain amount of time after spawning, which makes taking active spawn points impossible

I may just blitz the singleplayer and trade it back to gamestop as i saw today they are offering 45 Euro for it, 5 euro for a weeks rental, not bad.

kearneybobs

I do miss the spawn point grenades from KZ2.

I have to say, the maps are pretty dire in this game. Some of the best two, are the two from KZ2, and they weren't even the best ones from KZ2.
Pyrrhuss Crater is a fav of mine though.

I'm not sure if I'm beginning to lose my patience with this game.

Time will tell, and I'll be damned if they think I'm willing to pay €7 for two maps every month or so. The userbase for the game started out fragmented from the get-go, what with the retro map pack. And people say the COD map packs are a rip off!

PaddyBomb

Just got spawn trapped with my team on one of the snow maps there. Bring back the spawn grenade and spawn on squad leader, why did they take them out? Anyone else feel they've taken a few steps back with the multiplayer on this and Killzone 2's was better?

This game is going to flop horribly if they don't sort it out soon.
