Good OP, cool looking game, excited for these 18 or so days to zoom by so I can start The Next Generation of Video Games (tm). One cool thing to add to the OP would be that spreadsheet everyone added their PSNs to. I don't have it right now on my phone, but it might help set up MP games and whatnot. This is my launch game (alongside Madden or Injustice), so I'll be playing online after finishing the story, for sure (PSN is SA_Soul_Glo).

Evil Canadian posted:Well I can tell you that fixed map spawn points for teams are shielded in the manner that the people spawning can shoot out, but opposing foes cannot shoot in. I can't tell you if that is 100% going to fix the issue but seems pretty good to me. This worries me because Conquest in BF3 kinda works like this, where the team can move around in the spawn point and opponents can't, but it rarely seems to help deter spawn camping. Really, spawns need to flip at some point, which unfortunately just doesn't make sense in some game types. Another problem is determining when to execute a spawn flip, especially on small maps (CoD Nuketown  )

Evil Canadian posted:Well unfortunately no real way to tell until game is out there, because it's not like we can get a beta test or anything. It's a known issue and they have addressed it in a way they seem to think works, that's all we can really know for now Yeah, I guess not. Spawn points are one thing in multiplayer shooters that might always annoy me, but it's not like I have any ideas on how to fix them.

Lumpy posted:GameStop texted me last night that my copy of Killzone 4 will be ready for pick up tonight (Tuesday). So I guess I can stare at the box and make the "kill" noise for a few weeks.... Whoa, really? I haven't gotten a notice yet. Weird. It'll be nice to have all my stuff before my console so I don't have to make a trip to Gamestop after my console gets delivered, at least. e: GS's website still says 11/15 for me. Soul Glo fucked around with this message at 14:58 on Oct 29, 2013 |

SubponticatePoster posted:So I ran down to the Gamestop 5 minutes from my house and bought Shadowfall. Now it's just sitting here, mocking me. Yeah, I almost regret picking this and the DS4 up. At least I can use the DS4 to play other games on PC and PS3, but this just sits next to my PS3 games, warning them they're headed for a cardboard box. Plus there's the Target sale happening before launch day. I'll have a full collection before I even get the drat console. Still gonna be popping in Killzone first. Want the best looking game running on my PS4 first.

Talkc posted:Is there going to be an equivalent to metatags or Steam groups on ps4? Or does the 2k friend limit rule that out? If you can see friends of your friends we could just make a dummy account to all add. Depends on if it works that way or not, I guess. Isn't there a clan system?

Killzone 3 is like $8 now. I played one MP game, and it was near empty (coulda been just bad luck), but the SP was fun and the graphics were rad.

Gay Rumsfeld posted:Surprised there doesn't seem to be much goon hype behind this. Seems like the best PS4 launch title to me. Well, CoD and Battlefield just came out. Killzone ain't anywhere near as popular as those too. This game should still have plenty of people (and goons) online though since it's the best looking game on the console.

Ularg posted:Oh poo poo sorry. Everyone is already calling Adam Sessler a shill even though he quite liked the majority of the game. Well, Adam Sessler kiiiinda sucks, dude. I got taken to task by a few people in the PS4 general thread a couple weeks ago for saying that reviews (in particular, the scoring system itself) are kinda dumb and unnecessary in this day and age where you can hop online and watch literal hours of footage on a game to decide whether or not that game's for you. And now here we are with people (at least in the other thread) seeing games get average to good scores and wringing their hands, saying they're probably going to have to cancel their preorders because some guy on a bad website gave it a 5-8 out of 10. Disagreeing with someone's critique of a game's themes and contributions to the medium is one thing, but getting upset because some yahoo scored your preorder lower than you were hoping is another. The most important thing about reviews to me is hearing whether or not the game works on a playable level (something no other arts medium has to really worry about) and if the game is what it was represented to be. Killzone works and is still about shootin' dudes and lookin' pretty? Good to go.

Feenix posted:Is it me or is the muzzle flash (on at least some(?) guns really intrusive on trying to see what enemies you're shooting in multiplayer? Yeah, it's pretty bad. I hope there's some sort of suppressor attachment for some of those guns that might help.

Sindai posted:I'm stuck in single-player: on Helghast, there's an observation robot in front of a building with a four-legged killbot patrolling one side. How am I supposed to blow up the power supply on the killbot's side without getting murdered? As far as I can tell there's no way to destroy it. Get on the roof, chuck EMP grenades at the walker, shoot it with the rocket launcher that's around there.

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.
