What's wrong with the spawn points? If your unhappy with them use the tactician class ad capture some :?

I spawn in front of enemies most of the time or vice versa

WolfForager

Ah yes, but i believe that that's the point of tactical insertions, capturing them and keeping them. Your probably spawning infront of enemy tacticians trying to stem the tide of enemies

I dont think so wolf


how does that class work anyway, how do you do tactical inserts ?

WolfForager

There are pre-determined spawn spots all over the map, the tacticians job is to stand there until the bar turns green, then your entire team can spawn there until an enemy tactician gets there and turns the bar back to red again. This is the problem i think your running into :P The only spot your guaranteed not to get shot at is your home base.

Just finished it there!!! WTF!!!

ISA blew up a starcruiser with a nuke over a planet and killed millions. I dont wanna be a terrorist! What were they thinking. Millions of innocents dead!
Couple of questions. Which planet was it that was destroyed Helghan or Veckta

SPOILERS TAGS PLEASE. Some people haven't finished it yet.

Aiming with the Sharpahooter is possibly even better than using a mouse. Moving on the other hand will take serious getting used to. Shame they stripped the MP of some nice little features.

Mr E

Its a brand new game ... careful with the spoilers. Not everyone can play it from start to finish so quick.

Jesus Christ, why would you quote that? I had missed it the first time, cheers. Good job.

Officially out of this thread until I finish it. See you all in the spring.

Shotguns are over powered and the spawning is crap

Really my only 2 problems with the mulit player so far

edit

No kill cam is disappointing

Same as meself,the spawning is crazy,I died 4 times in the space of about 5 seconds of gameplay and the worse thing is not even knowing what happened,a killcam would vastly improve the multiplayer.
Singleplayer is better than I expected and I had high hopes for it,pity it's not a bit longer

cursai

Sorry!!!!! Forgot about spoiler tags!

cursai

Can't connect to multiplayer. Whats the craic! Anybody else having this problem?

if you insist man, and are wiling to overlook the removals errors and deficiencies that make this seem a step backward but the hype that was kz2 has all come flooding back to me. the basic concept, environments characters and sluggish movement, shoddy mechanics all hiding behind a monochrome gloss the blue v red, good vs evil yanks v english back to basics game of spacey quasar reminds me this was supposed to be a COD beater MP staple franchise but failed so bad

played some bulletstorm before this, was tons slicker will get back to it very soon

Yeah, they should have just released KZ2 and charged 50 quid:rolleyes:

I don't miss 95% of the removed stuff, I'd be more concerned about audio problems and redraw issues. Personally, I love the heavier movement in KZ

Just been playing the multiplayer last night. I feel like the multi lacks the polish that makes the CoD multiplayer experience so good. I dont mean the gameplay now, thats top notch. I mean the pre game lobby, loading screens and all those things that where removed from KZ2. Time between matchs for TDM take way to long. Would be ok if there was something to do there like look at all the players stats or something, anything! Also no map names? I dunno what bloody map i do be playing apart from Frozen Dam.

And medics, oh god. Whats the point in this class? If your lying on the ground you havent a clue who is a medic close to you so you dont know if you should revive or not. Plus the fact that if your shot to the ground you take a death on your record even if your revived or not. Pointless

Lack of Map name is bad, spot on with the medics as well. Only goo thing is they're normally very good to update when needed. One thing I have seen is the deathmatch mode seems to be on one map a lot, if not all, of the time.

Call of Duty has polish?? Any time i try to play it these days i get booted out of the lobby after every game. I'd prefer having to wait an extra minute or two in KZ3 than have to search for a new game every time.

Lemme guess you play on the PS3? Ive never had any problems with Blops or MW2 on the Xbox, so consider my "polish" to be Xbox360 polish

Pressing square during post game scoreboard lets you vote for the next map

WolfForager

Ah i see... I concede your point then :P

Actually, has anyone set up BOC- yet?

kearneybobs

BOC? care to elaborate?

WolfForager

The boards clan we used in KZ2.

kearneybobs

Haven't heard. Count me in.

whiterebel

Just noticed you can press square button and it brings you into the map vote screen......:o

kearneybobs

It isn't there all the time though. Does it work all of the time? Even if the prompt/option isnt there. Must give it a try. Saw it once, but it was too late to see where it brought me.

WolfForager

Can't get into any MP games, get's stuck on the briefing screen everytime.

EDIT: OH SNAP!! I'm in!!

RAIN

Anyone else notice a weird jingling sound when you move in game? It's driving me nuts?also had the audio probs reported. Mp is good but the campaign is all over the place. I'll play for a stretch then wonder if I'm actually enjoying it. The fights are full of cheap deaths, bad cover mechanics and guys flanking you with no help from your ai mates. Theres no time to just enjoy the game after the stealth section, you're too busy checking to see if someone is above you about to blow you're head off. Whole thing reminds me of the favela level in mw2. Trial and error instead of skill.

TheJBurner

i want this game so bad... just havent found the time to buy it.

just going to try the online now if anyone wants to add me gamertag is same as here.

And someone else gets a kill, I see no problem with this way.

I'm trying to get into a game of operations and it keeps saying ' The world is full cannot join game' WTF!

Really liking the campaign, don't like the multiplayer at all and think the fact that majority of players are cloaked takes away from the game instead of adding a new element.
Having to shoot your own team players constantly to see if they are cloaked or getting killed by a presumed team mate just isn't fun.

I couldn't disagree more, TBH. AI is great, both enemy and comrades, apart from the odd stupid moment. The amount of times I've gone back to get ammo, and the team has killed off the opposition in my absence. I find the cover works well, as I never really used it much in games before, but if the cover is high enough, i think it works well.

Didnt notce the jingling but it might be something i notice now you ave pointed it out !! Thanks for that

Cant say i noticed any of those problems with the campaign either, only got caught once from guys up above and they where flame thrower guys but i just pulled back and shot them.

Guys flanking you is a good thing, My AI was pretty helpful through out too. Once or twice they ran in front of me but thats not something they can program for.

Finished campaign there earlier.. Not as good ending as killzone 2 anyways.. Then again I just loved the killzone 2 ended.. Only down fall is it took me only 4hrs 10mins.. Seriously WTF.. Nearly every game has at least 7 to 8 hours play.. I will play on elite now though..

At the end a bit p1ssed me off and I kept dieing (27 flipping times)..

RAIN

LOVE the multiplayer now. Gave the campaign a break because it was wrecking my head, went back and started it again on normal, much better Dnt think playing it on hard was a good idea if I wanted to just relax with it! So I take my early grumpy comments back! The jingling is in the multiplayer and on a bother TV so I think it's just part of the game. Loving the perk system in the multiplayer, the way they've tweaked the classes is genius. Never used engineer in K2 cus I hated the shotty but now it's awesome. Gah so good, it's like battlefield in a good way. So much better then freaking Halo:reach.

I think the jingling noise is letting you know a grenade is beside you?

4 hours only? Wow.
Cheers though, I was thinking of getting this but there is no chance I'm paying €50 for a 4 hour campaign.
Might give it a rent.

Is that not the sound effect when your moving? The sound of the ammo and grenades being carried by your character jingling.

Grumpypants

Picked up the sharp shooter today it is very good for shooting, but really tricky to look around i keep looking at the ground or the sky !!! Will take some time and i wont be going online with it.

The attachment itself is nice though good weight to it feels like a controller rather than a cheap plastic add on.

I realise that now but it was driving me mad at first!

killzone is gonna be beast

I find that it's one of the best MP game's i've played in years, however i don't see it getting anywhere near as big as Battelfield, Cod, Halo or even MoH. If it was on the 360 i really could see it becoming massive, but on the PS3... for some reason i don't see it happening.

It's nowhere near as good as battlefield for me but definitely trumps the likes of COD,MOH etc.

And lets face it the Helghast are the coolest bad guys in any shooter.
