So I've just started playing Killzone 2....

I finished KZ2. I never really bothered with the first (even though I did buy it).

KZ2 looked fairly snazzy for a console game, but my god were the controls crap, I really struggled to aim. I do hope they fix this for KZ3.
 
I don't think anyone has said they want the controls to be like Call of Duty, that's just a pretty knee-jerk reaction claiming that people do.......... What I personally want is to rid the game of it's struggling inconsistant framerate and stick-lag. Yes, it's not a twitch shooting game, and that's not how I would play it. Games like Operation Flashpoint and Armed Assault don't allow for twitch shooting, but the aiming is still a hell of a lot better than KZ2. It's simply down to struggling frame rate and lag, not "weighted aiming". Besides, hold a keyboard out in front of you like a gun, and pretend to dart from target to target quickly - it's really not anywhere near as hard as some people are making it out to be, yet alone when you're as muscle-bound as the cast of KZ2 :D
 
I cant recall any major issue with the frame rate apart from when it does it mid level loads when nowt is going on :confused:

Mid-level loads feel soooooo 1990s (half life, quake etc).
I loved the Oblivion mod that completely removed the city loading times by opening all the gates to the cities. It really made me think why they were there in the first place if they weren't needed on pc.
 
yeah same here, haven't noticed a single frame-rate issue at any point in KZ2 to be honest. felt perfectly smooth from start to finish...:confused: something wrong with your PS3 maybe?

More likely he has a different opinion of what perfectly smooth is compared to you. For me, perfectly smooth is Wipeout HD, whereas KZ2 is playable but not smooth. Just another one of those things where everyone will have a different opinion.

Hammer, meet head of nail. Not enough to put me off the game, but certainly to notice it, combined with the lag is just a tad annoying. But the game's biggest falling point seems to be the repetitive combat at the moment!

+1 to that, technically speaking its a great game but its just like the other FPS in the way all you really do is run about shooting things...it does feel nice though, the atmosphere, which is what i think is missing in so many games :)

I read your post as the control stick lag was due to the frame-rate? I notice frame-rate drops when it's just come out of a cut-scene (or stupid mid-level save/load) but game play is smooth.
