I only played the psn+ beta for a few days, it was ok but was still a bit buggy for having fun on and laggy.

Tell me people cant fly in the MP side of the game?

I know its a new part of the Single Player campaign and all, but still... flying

Is the coop just a the full campaign with 2-4 players?

Any confirmation on whether or not you can use two move controllers in coop?

Thank you, that's a whole lot better than the 2Gb+ downloads of late and means I can be playing this evening

Just tried to make the OcUK clan but it wont let me - has someone else already? Can you drop me an invite...

This wasnt an option in KZ3 Closed Beta so they seemed to have released a newer build...

Cheers for the heads up, will download when I get back from work.

Anyone playing this now If so, what do you think of it?

Red and White · 3 Feb 2011 at 12:37

this looks amazing so far. just watching a stream of it but will download later

ps3ud0 · 3 Feb 2011 at 12:40

Wanted a quick go to see the changes, but I just couldnt join a MP game - either it says 'joining game' or past that 'CONNECTING' but never got past that. Oh well Ill try later tonight...

EDIT: Ahh thats why its smaller than Closed Beta - only 1 map...

Can't wait to give this a go tonight. Really enjoyed Killzone 2's MP and if this is an improvement on that then no doubt i'll enjoy this also!

biron_w · 3 Feb 2011 at 13:22

Just had a go. Couldn't get into a normal game so played against bots.
It's actually rather good. Takes a while to get used to as the controls are a bit wobbly and totally different to the arcade controls of COD.

please tell me the controls are better than kz2

biron_w · 3 Feb 2011 at 13:34

The feel the same to me. I didn't mind the controls of KZ2. They just take some getting used to as they are more weighty than games like COD.

Same, KZ2 MP was much underrated imho. I was playing with the NTSCuk crew against some other forums but unfortunately it didn't last long until people moved onto other games.

stellasuppa · 3 Feb 2011 at 13:45

you can change the config of the controls to alternate which is more like cod they have improved the input lag the 2nd one had .
This demo is also in 3d but not move yet the single player demo next week will support both move and 3d

Hopefully join up with some of you guys tonight for some fun im not sure how the clan matches are going to work this time and if we are going to get the birds eye view of a replay on there site .
It was really good for planning strategys especially against the clans that are more organised cannot believe we ended up 3rd in the kz2 compo knew i should have held of going on holiday that week :eek:

From doing a direct comparison I can say I believe the controls have greatly improved in my opinion. They are a lot more responsive and just feel better. Shooting people feels better they seem to die in a reasonably amount of bullets. There is little to no auto aim if there is any present at all.

I think its a great improvement overall and after a few games the fun factor is defiantly there. The graphics are really nice although there is a few fps issues now and again.

That is great news, really looking forward to playing this later!
