I'm still worried that K3's just been CoD'd up... do you guys think enemies go down way faster when playing online now?

CoD'd? Whats that supposed to mean

CoD'd? Whats that supposed to mean

Making the game play/feel less like Killzone and more like MW2.

Here is a Quick Look of the multiplayer beta.

 

[Electro UK]

Just taking the weighty, tactical feels of the gunplay in KZ2 and turning it into the fast-paced, super soldier action of MW2, Hav.

 

[Superhero 101]

I think it looks a lot more smoother then KZ2

I am getting that!

 

[Superhero 101]

129 is a bit too much for me but it is pretty cool

 

[Electro UK]

I want to throw all my moral values out of the window for that replica

 

[Havok83]

129 is a bit too much for me but it is pretty cool

Its the replica that makes it so expensive. I bet it would be closer to $80-$90 without it, which is alot more reasonable

After spending about 6 hours in the Beta, all I have to say is I love it. First I have to say that I never got into KZ2's MP. Can't really explain why, but it never felt right to me. Maybe it was the controls or the balance, but I never liked it. All that has changed with KZ3. The controls are rock solid and the balance between classes is way much better. The visuals are jawdropping. It easily eclipses KZ2's and it is only in Alpha stage right now. The melee system is so much fun and easy to pull off. So far my favorite classes are Engineer and Infiltrator. Engineer is my favorite of the two, especially after upgrading his turrents and his repair ability to reprogram the enemies turrents. All and all I can't stop playing it and can't imagine what the full game is going to do to my brain.

I felt the same way about KZ2's multiplayer, though I'm not a multiplayer person in general. Good to see your impressions are pretty good on it.

Thats not a bad thing IMO. I loved KZ2 but it did feel a bit sluggish at times. MW has the best feel out of any shooter out there but I love the structure, class system and approach of KZ2 better. Tweaking it and making it feel better is pure win in my book.

 

[Electro UK]

I guess it's just how you look at things. I'm really not a fan of Modern Warfare's super-fast aiming, short burst of fire is all it takes to kill, multiplayer. Killzone 2 and Bad Company 2 took different approaches that work miles better for me.

 

[Superhero 101]

I think its a huge improvement over KZ2 though i mean the engineer class seems really better

 

[KALEL114]

Dude! You got in the Beta too? What's your PSN so we can kick some Helghast or ISA butt.

 

[Superhero 101]

no i didn't but i have been watching a lot of the beta videos.

 

[eternalinferno]

well I gotta say, I'm having a blast with the beta, I like that the fact that the gameplay hs been sped up a bit and everything feeling more fluid than K2, but not to the point where it feels like CoD, it still has it's own unique feel to it, and I am hooked right now, I myself couldn't really get into K2 multiplayer but I see this game being my next uncharted

 

[Superhero 101]

i just wish they make it public to everyone soon

Dear E,

I apologize for those explicit and derogatory msg's I've sent you on PSN regarding you playing Killzone 3 while I sit in shame & jealousy (for not renewing my PS+) I didn't mean it and I drank a little too much fruit punch.

Hopefully still your friend,

JaD
