Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 You are so unlucky Daft, but then again I am on my third Wii.... My Wii might be broken but I haven't taken it out of the box for over six months now so I wouldn't know. I'm going to try real hard to not download the demo. I've slowly been playing fewer and fewer games and I haven't watched any videos in ages. I want it to be a bit like when I put on MGS4 for the first time. That was heaven. The fact my DS3 is knackered also helps, ironically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I'm tempted to download the demo and just do the training bit of it. Thing is then I'd know what the controls/gameplay was like... Hmmm....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But definately your final experience will end up better. The demo alone will have a media explosion i bet. Be careful of spoilers though. Alot of reviews, videos and websites are parading spoilers.

Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Yeah, I totally get people wanting to play the demo but I remember coming to MGS4 having only just played the previous three in the preceding weeks and only seen a couple official trailers. It was a real shock to the system. A good one of course. After reading the Eurogamer review I am on total media blackout. I can't wait to get stuck in, especially the multiplayer.

dwarf Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I don't think you guys realise how much I will cream you at this game by. My FPS skillz have improved tenfold after Resistance 2 so I have nailed the analogues and will ultimately nail you, be it with a pistol or rocket launcher. Not being arrogant or anything.

Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 I was painfully good at Unreal Tournament III so I guess you'll have to avoid me if you want to carry on 'creaming'. :wink: Edit: You've made me want to play Halo 3 now. Haven't had a death match for a while now. Although saying that I only play team matches. I always thought all vs all was a bit crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choze Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I am good at Killzone 2 already We need to start setting up the clan though. Then we can fight rival websites and forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I don't mind to be honest, but it is nice being at the top of the leader board in a team deathmatch to let people know that you were the reason for victory. Then again it's very invividual and rewarding in standard deathmatches. I relish both. Popping a few bullets into someones grid in this game is going to be so sweet. I've already experienced the shotgun in full flow and it is positively awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Yeah, I'm up for that, I really do only play team matches. Last time I played a non team death match was when we partied up on R2 because I assumed we were playing teams. Team tactics are way more fun. I love covering people. I don't mind to be honest, but it is nice being at the top of the leader board in a team deathmatch to let people know that you were the reason for victory. Hell yes! It really annoys me when someone thinks they're amazing because they get a higher kill count than me but have an awful minus spread because they've died way more times. Happens all the bloody time on Halo 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Just to give you an idea of what you will bare witness to when you see me - Resistance 2 stats: 171 deathmatch rounds completed (each game fought between 10-20 people) 74 wins (and a fair few second places may I add lol) Kills: 3703 Deaths: 2516 (kill/death ratio: 1.47) Team Deathmatch 2818 kills / 2034 deaths (kill/death ratio 1.39) Best weapon kill/death ratio is sniper - 1.77 I've got 3963 kills with the carbine which is what wins me most matches. (kill/death ratio 1.29) All in all I'm a bit of a freak. All this and I'm still not top rank. Still a long way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Resistance 2 is a different kettle of fish though. It's actually a relatively tricky online game to get into. I'm guessing I'm going to have to relearn a lot of things for this anyway. Strategy guide I bought should help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I could take you down with a spoon in any game Daft. But yeah, Killzone 2 is very different. More tactical, more teamwork and options available as a result of the classes. You also don't need to unload half a clip in order to kill someone in it. (Which I don't find a problem with in Resistance). The whole environment makes the game more like a real battlefield with debri and dust making it hard to aim etc so it's a very different experience, yet recognisable.

Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Spoons are dangerous!! I hope I don't get overwhelmed by the class choices. Good thing about Halo is everyone is exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I think it'll give the multiplayer more replayability/longevity so it stays fresh. I don't think I'll spend much time as an engineer if I'm being honest. You'll get a bigger slice of the action with other classes. It was only recently where I've found an addiction for online/FPS/upgrading & levelling up. I get a real thrill from it all. Brilliant thing that happened to gaming.

Nolan Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Class choices really add to the game, just look at TF2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Yeah, I agree it adds choice but I've always found it a bit off putting. It's hard to explain and just a personal opinion. Although from what I've heard about how KillZone 2 introducing classes as you level up it sounds like it won't be a problem. I'm just hoping we get a solid NE presence playing it for a long time. I loved playing Halo 3 when everyone was playing it but after a while less so. I also hope I have enough time to get into it properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choze Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 KZ2 will be busy for a while. Also we can create our own server and clan spots. It will be the best online shooter since COD4. When first play you need to level up abit befire you can really get into being high skilled like unlocking extra ammo and the ability to join or create squads. You can get these first day most likely. Others like the magnum take time. Classes take a while. So you will be well trained with each. You can pick and mix abit however the ability to mix requires unlocks. Plus i will defeat all of you with a pistol :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Plus i will defeat all of you with a pistol :P Idk, I'm pretty good with a pistol in most games (assuming the pistol hasn't been nerfed to epic proportions ala Halo post CE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choze Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Headshot = 1 hit. Makes it easier. Magnum helps as well. Unlocked via pistol kills. Not sure if they changed how many rounds and kills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flameboy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 The multiplayer sounds awesome I never got CoD 4 as it had been out for awhile when I got my PS3 and didn't quite realise how long its legs would be. The problem I always have with games like this is I always want to complete the single player first and due to limited gaming time that takes me longer than expected by which time everyone is already awesome at the multiplayer. I think I will have to spread my time between the two better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I'm going to do the first level or two of single player and then get to grips with multiplayer (unranked if possible). Then I'll spread the game time. I only bothered completing the Resistance 2 campaign once though. Can someone else start the cocky Killzone 2 talk? I'm alone at the moment. It doesn't matter if you're as crap as Flamey just hit me lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolFunkMan Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 http://www.gametrailers.com/player/45018.html - Gametrailers have a video review up. They awarded it a 9.2, pretty good! I'm starting to want this a lot more, but I'm low on cash atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
