Daft Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 Your order for Killzone 2: The Official Guide to Warzone and Campaign has been posted. Just got this e-mail from PLAY. Which was sent -475 minutes ago... Why am I getting e-mails from play in minus minutes? Can anyone explain this?
Deathjam Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 as of 10.42, my steelbook case w/e order has been dispatched. If I wasn't so grumpy as of late, I would probably be jumping for joy.
Deathjam Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Oh... my copy just turned up. Unexpected! Da hell?! Lucky Git lol! Ah well tell us how it plays (I mean we do know but it would be nice to have someone confirm what choze says).
The Lillster Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Just got in, checked the post and among the usual shit, there was a package with my name on it, I opened it and killzone 2 was in there. So basicly I now have killzone 2. But i'm not gonna be able to play it until later as i'm currently looking for a new job. But never the less, theres gonna be good times on PS3 in the near future. :weep: :weep: :weep: :weep: Should of ordered from Specsavers dvd.co.uk :p Here's a picture of the Missus... (She's still a virgin at this point).

Daft Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 I heard you the first time, flameboy!! Got the pre-order KillZone 2 theme. Looks pretty swish.
dwarf Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Yup, mines been dispatched, I can't wait to crunch into the online mode! It's going to be awesome.
Cookyman Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Didn't arrive today but I'm confident I'll have it tomorrow as it was despatched on Tuesday. Can't friggin wait!
Daft Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 I'm not holding my breath for tomorrow because if it doesn't come I'll just be annoyed. What's annoying is that my postman always comes quite late. I'm so glad there are bots in the game!
LegoMan1031 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 My order was also dispatched this morning from shopto. Hopefully i will have it tomoz!

Ryan Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Got my pre-order code for the Killzone theme from Play, it looks alright, doubt I'll use it. Can you 'share' themes from PSN like the PSN games? Be happy to share if anyone wants the theme and didn't order from Play.
Aimless Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Well, I've completed the campaign on Trooper (Normal) and it took around 6 hours. It's a decent enough shooter that doesn't outstay its welcome; 7/10 material. It suffers from a few bizarre design decisions, notably the decision to make your default sidearm a magnum that's slow and inaccurate rather than the far more useful Helghan pistol that's semi-automatic and much more precise. Also I'm still not a fan of the stick calibration as there's a certain unwelcome momentum to it that made me constantly aware that I was wrestling to aim rather than just aiming. That last part is incredibly bizarre as I just tried the multiplayer and... the aiming is loads better! I'm sure it can't be psychological as the difference was immediately noticeable; there doesn't seem to be the same annoying follow-through as in singleplayer. Anyway I haven't played many matches yet, but things have definitely improved since the Beta — aiming, netcode, overall polish — and I can easily see this becoming the de facto PS3 exclusive online shooter.
Aimless Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Also Magnum >>>>>>> Pistol. Interms of effectiveness. Perhaps, but the Helghan pistol is a far more useful sidearm given that you can only carry one primary weapon. If you run out of ammo or are carrying a rocket launcher it's annoying having a backup weapon that's slow firing and inaccurate, as it isn't nearly as versatile as the other pistol. If they swapped the two around I'm sure you'd be hearing far fewer complaints about only being able to carry one main weapon at a time. How would you compare the single player so far to COD4? I'd say they're about level with each other, although personally I'd give the edge to Guerilla's game. There's a lot less 'move forward to stop the infinite spawn' in Killzone 2, much to my relief, but they're both very by-the-numbers games. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just don't expect some kind of revolutionary shooter as this isn't it.
dwarf Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Hehe just made a Note that I stuck on my front door with cellotape asking my postman if he could sign the package himself if we are away. One A4 sheet with the polite message and on A4 alerting him to the message. Hope this works (shows how desperate I am for the game)
Diageo Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Saw the badge abilities on gametrailers. They look pretty cool. I like the sentry gun idea.
dwarf Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Aww I don't want to get my hopes up for arrival tomorrow but I know I'll be disappointed it it isn't here when I get back... Come on Postie, I've left you the instructions. Believe!
LegoMan1031 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Well i'm about to set off for work and postman has not arrived yet... I'm not even sure if anyone will be in when postman arrives.... Tense times...
