The Killzone Franchise Thread

[Vile]

I've never played any of the Killzone games, but 3 looks pretty badass from the commercials - is it one of those games you can pick up off the bat or do you need to get 1 and 2 to get the controls?

 

[Superhero 101]

It's a game you can pick up when the game loads there is like a little written narrative that explain the events of 1 and 2 right before the CGI clip and main menu

Favorite Map So Far has to be the Jungle one the colors are just so pretty to look at...

 

[sandwraith]

I keep ending up in Saloman Marketplace or worse, that map with the Turbines and jetpacks which sucks because I don't know how to work those damn things. Maxed out my Tactician (primary class), 1 unlock away from maxing out my Engineer. Will start with Medic once that's done.

need to read some reviews to see if this is work distracting myself from the awesomeness that is BF2BC.

When you first start out, it is like target practice and your the target. When you start upgrading the classes, things get a lot easier.

I got some time in this morning/afternoon, managed to bring my k/d barely over 1, it was down around .70, .60, so I'm playing better now but I can't believe I still haven't won a single game -_-

 

[KALEL114]

That sucks. I am below 1 right now, but I have been steadily getting closer to it.

You know what happens to me? I keep having my team all spawn as the same thing. Most of the time they are all a Marksman. C'mon! We need Engineers and Medics too.

I have been going back and forth between Medic and Engineer. I played as Engineer through out the Beta and really did well, but I am really enjoying the Medic even more. Hopefully you, I, and maybe some more peeps from here can get online and play a few rounds. I will be on tonight and maybe in a couple of hours.

Its Tactician and Engineer for me. I've come to realize that those are two of the more hazardous classes and you've got a piss-poor mortality rate.

Still, if you ignore your K/D rating which is utter crap when you consider Connection flaws and such, if you do what your class is meant to do, you'll find yourself extremely seasoned on the battlefield.

Case in point: Tactician. A class where Initiative is more important than your kill-rate. Capture and Hold is your element. But so is Search and Retrieve if you realize that Propaganda speakers spawn close to TSAs. Defending a position is where you excel. Not in defending but seizing the opportunity to capture enemy TSAs when the Enemy starts spawning from the closest TSA to breach your position. Grab a Medic and another guy, capture points and pick off stragglers. Cut them off from the rest of the map by letting them have 1 TSA and homebase, then pump them full of lead and explosives at every access/egress you know the area provides. Its a beautiful thing when you and a bunch of other players who know what they're doing helps form the perfect killzone.

I'm starting on my Medic pump now. Got my TSA Gold Medal and I've got my sights on EXO Killer Bronze. Lieutenant Colonel I in 6 days worth of play. Awesome.

I've got a review up for anyone who hasn't broken down and bought it already.

 

[KALEL114]

Alright, so I maxed out the Engineer and it is awesome. His final primary gun is a beast. Last night, I raised my KDR by .08. I had a 17-2-3 game as well. Think I we stick with that class from now on, especially since it seems everyone I have on my team lately, wants to be a Marksman.

Incredibly well-written review.

Really love your sites layout too.

Thanks; always good to hear that people like my design.

 

[Superhero 101]

Ugh i hate how there are people who only use rockets!!!! I swear they should just ban them!!! Or GG should do the whole custom thing where there are no rockets allowed!

 

[luvaluva]

Favorite game modes? I grew fond of Operations.

 

[Superhero 101]

Everytime i try Operations my team isn't even able to plant the stupid charges.

Just finished the campaign and it was ok. The ending felt like a week before going gold they realized "o noes we forgot teh ending" and slapped something on there. The fun of the MP is starting to wear off for me now. The Marksman is just too cheap.

Yep. Killzone 3's pretty much going down as the biggest dissapointment of the year for me.

 

[KALEL114]

Yeah I am a bit disapointed. It just seems so behind with the times, if that makes sense. It didn't raise the bar and that is an expectation you have with a game of this caliber. Visually it is amazing, but everything is "ok".

Hey guys. Edge is running a promotion for KZ3, infamous 2, and GT5. To enter you have to enter the UPC code from the product (shaving gel). I noticed that all of the UPC codes were the same, so here is the code: 841058005209. You can get the KZ3 Retro Map Pack or 3 unlock points, a infamous 2 sniping power, or custom GT5 car. I used the code for the map pack and unlock points, but had to use a different e-mail for each one. Not sure how many times it can be used, but have at it and let me know if it works for you guys as well.http://edgeshave.com/#!/ps3Giveaway/register
