I didn't really notice it until yesterday, but I love how the game goes straight to the main menu when launched. Not 20 different logos and low bitrate splash videos, just a menu.

Multiplayer is very underrated and its a shame it barely cracks over 1000 people playing. I dont know why people are saying Killzone 2 had better multiplayer. The gunplay and movement feel way better. Everything seems really balanced and the maps are good as well. It would be nice if you just made the spreadsheet public. I dont think anyone minds psn usernames being listed.

I think it's partly because there's a new console ad ~5 big name titles out at the same time, so people are splitting their time between games, and playing through SP parts. Hopefully it will pick up soon!

On too many platforms. I hope the Euro launch (almost Wednesday in the CET zone) brings enough players, and Ghosts doesn't become the most sold and played title again. (PS4 Ghosts has since long ago outsold the WiiU version in the UK, which is XboxLand)

We'll make sure that when we see an ammo box, we use it. I noticed the same thing though, Pubbies don't notice/care about the ammo boxes that you place down.

The trouble with ammo boxes in these kind of shooters is that you die so fast that ammo doesn't really factor into things. It's very fast paced and isn't really like Battlefield where you have to take the time to run to places and play very carefully. I constantly run and gun my way to victory and if I get killed it's no big deal. I think they should roll ammo box into the assault's shield but drop the healing stuff. I think it would make more sense. Edit: And for the record, I haven't played Killzone since the day I beat it mainly because it's launch and wanted to play my other titles (save BF4 which I'm going to wait until it gets fixed), which is why I push for a goon night so I know when everyone else is playing and can play with.

Since I forgot some fine forum-goers can't send PMs, here's the link to the "find a time for Goon Killzone Night" spreadsheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApgoTnajm3jEdDFzeW1NM2ZocVJNckswNW13VlFyRGc&usp=sharing There's a tab for each day, so plop your name in, put a 0 (or leave blank) when you can't play, and put a 1 under the times that work for you. I will then attempt to use basic math and determine which day(s) and time(s) work the bestest for the most people.

One thing about this game that always pushes me back towards CoD is that spawn camping is so much more rampant in KZ. You get lovely spawns in CoD, sure, but with set spawns and the spawn beacon in KZ, it seems REALLY easy for the other team to create really terrible choke points that only serve to infuriate the other team.

Yeah but... ammo boxes refill your grenades  Also while it's unlikely that you survive with a super red screen, it does also instantly heal you to full when you bend over to pick it up.

Got this with my PS4 last night and I've been playing both campaign and multiplayer. I'm on like chapter 3 in the campaign and the checkpoint system is loving maddening. Definitely one of the worst I've encountered in recent memory. Multiplayer, however, is really fun. I was playing with a buddy who also just got the game earlier today and we had a blast using party chat and discovering new features about the game and the system while shooting dudes.

I got stuck playing War Thunder and not Killzone MP. Loved the weight and feel, it's meaty, just poorly balanced. Enemy player has a minigun pouring bullets down a corridor? No need to worry, like.

I've been playing TDM most of this weekend with a bit of warzone. Almost all support, I did try scout but it gets a bit boring. However a couple maps where scout seems to work well are park and remains. Actually the remains tends to give me a lot of trouble in general. Anyway I think it's pretty fun, even if I suck (0.47 K/D ratio).

I'm pretty glad this multiplayer is pretty fun, because grinding up to the platinum is gonna take a while. I still haven't seen a single goon playing this game online yet. Not a single one. Everyone I added from this thread has only ever been playing Battlefield 4, but I heard that crashes alot?

It crashes pretty often (BF4) even with the new patch, but it's much better than before. I prefer Killzone MP, but tBF and CoD are the heavy hitters of FPS games. When you fire up your PS4, look for parties named 'Helghoons' or killzone. Join them! If you start playing and nobody else is online, start a party named 'Helghoons'. I played for many an hour yesterday, with goons joining into my party throughout the night. I'll be on again tonight around 8pm EST until the wee hours.

I'm not feeling the game in singleplayer or multiplayer, but it is a solid fine game with respectable work put into it that GG should be commended for. I prefer it over BF4s SP because it's not insultingly stupid, but MP-wise I think I've mentally had it with first person shooters. Gonna wrap up the SP soon, then spend a fever-free day in multi and see if I can get that spark I got from War Thunder PS4 or even APB Reloaded and Dust514 when matchups were fair and balanced. The only other game I feel the same for in MP as this is Hawken, which is a fine game with no major problems, just that I cannot feel what I'm doing, even if I jump in and top the boards and vary my play.

A side affect of buying like five launch titles, coupled with the fact that I am truly enjoying Battlefield 4, means I have neglected Killzone for quite a while. Anyway, I just gave multiplayer another go and finally got comfortable with the controls and it is quite fun! I am rather enjoying it.

Looking at that time table list it seems like Friday and Saturday nights are the golden times for group Killzone. I'd be game for tonight but it's double exp in BF4 and I've yet to touch that game so I figured double exp would be a good time as any to try it out.

Finally got some quality time in with the campaign this weekend, and I'm almost finished. Overall I'm enjoying it - certainly not the 'hot garbage' others had described it as, but that said I agree it doesn't really do anything special or memorable as far as shooter campaigns go. It also helps that I'm playing after the 1.05 patch, as the skydiving and container escort portions weren't painful at all. The part that did drive me crazy was that stupid free fall portion in chapter 7 - it probably took me 8 or 9 tries before I realized you're supposed to aim for that little rocket trail at the bottom (that eventually deploys into a cushion - why they didn't have the cushion pop out way earlier boggles my mind). One other thing that's a little annoying - the game seems to love ending chapters with massive firefights that always go on at least one wave longer than they should.
