Killzone 3(maybe official thread?)

Why does it matter if the SP is only 4hours? IF the game is great and or amazing for 4hours and you have been entertained surely its better than lets say a 6-8hours were it just turns out okay and your not that bothered about it?

Really dont get this "oh its not long enough its too short for the money" etc.
 
If you are only buying it for the sp £40 is a lot £10 a hour there are more pleasurable ways of spending that sort of money :p.

That may be true however....

Generally I'm quite slow working my way through games for this very reason, when I buy a game I want something that is going to occupy me for at least a couple of weeks however good the game may be if you end up completing it in a week (or in this case 2 days) if the game has limited replay value for someone only interested in the SP then £40 is a bit of a con for what essentially is no longer than most DLC

Take the Bioshock 2 SP DLC that took me longer to complete than what KZ3 is going to take

It's really quite disappointing tbh because as a SP experience this is much better than what seems to be the much longer KZ2 and for that experience to be cut short because they obviously focused all their efforts on the move and 3D aspects of the game is like I said a bit of a con.

Once I've finished the SP I will go back through it and play it at a higher difficulty because there are some trophies I've already missed but it doesn't stop it being a bit naff
 
Don't normally bother with MP in games (especially FPS), but after playing the beta this is one I plan to play in MP as I really enjoyed it :)

In saying that I totally agree that 4 1/2hours is too short even if it will be longer on harder modes. On the flip side there are plenty of games that should be shorter (looking at you DS2).

Totally agree - unfortunately I think thats the growing trend in FPSes. Seems its more about the big sequences/cut scenes than actual campaign length.

For me KZ3 is all about the MP

How does that 24hr bonus work? A code unlock or what? Ive got nothing in my package apart from the CE stuff (retro map, soundtrack)

Lets you rise through the ranks faster by earning experience points at twice the normal rate for your first 24 hours of multilayer gameplay. Hopefully get this game tomorrow if they have any special editions left.

Is there any sort of co-op for this game i.e. a 2 player split screen game that isn't just 2 players in a "regular" MP mode?

I get that - more the fact how it works - Ive got the CE but theres no code in the box or anything and Ive got no email from a game store regards it. To be honest I dont care, but want to see if my current MP is being boosted or not and understand what is actually representative of the game...

Well, I started playing it from about noon today and finished just before ten tonight. I took a total of approx one and a half hours break over the course of the day so that still leaves eight and a half hours and that's on Easy. Even if I wasnt interested in going online thats still a decent length for me and I would happily play through it multiple times.

Solid game, and longer than various "reviews" claim. I always take reviews with a pinch of salt, and prefer to make up my own mind based upon videos, screenshots interviews/features and if possible first hand gameplay experience. I do read/watch reviews, but see them more of a research tool to find out more about the game itself, type of gameplay, design features etc and not necessarily to make a judgement purely on someones opinion and when I write my own reviews I do so with this in mind. I for one am very pleased with my purchase. My only complaint is that there is no all Vs all Deathmatch mode. I much prefer a mode like that as opposed to being in a team and is the sole reason why I don't play Bfbc and Moh online, and its a real shame because they look great online otherwise and I really enjoyed the Single Player Campaign in both games.

Dont know how this fell off my radar...been busy with exams and not had much time on the ps3...

Anyway, is the collectors edition only at the purple store? Did you get it for £44.99? This reminds me of when KZ2 came out and we all jumped onto MP - i remember it beinga nade fest and the fantastic shotgun glitch...

Might pick this up on the way to work, i got the KZ2 steelbook so fancy this one too - will it be available instore?

Really didn't enjoy it. I struggled to get a single kill. I was suffering from COD syndrome where the enemies seemed to drop me in a couple of shots.
I'm reserving judgement however as I don't think I played with a single english player as they all seemed to be french. I'll wait to see what it's like after tomorrow when more people will have it.
 
Yeah I saw your stats biron and I was in the same boat in the Beta. Im trying to learn not to aim and shoot and just shoot from the hip when needed - its far more quicker. On top of that COD makes you very lazy when it comes to aiming, the snap aim is better than early Quake aimbots...

Sorry I didnt accept your squad invite - by time I noticed it it had expired - give me a shout whenever an we can squad up :). You got comms?

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
Apart from a few games I kept going silly negative. I struggled to get a kill most of the time.
Yeah i've got a headset. I'll probably be on tomorrow so i'll give you a shout.
 
enjoying the mp, started with the engineer and moving more too the medic as im fed up with nobody saving each other. not enough maps for my liking i must admit
