IGN: Ten Things We Want In Killzone 3

IGN writes: Killzone 2 was met with critical acclaim, and lived up to most of the expectations thrust upon it by the gaming community. Not content with resting on their laurels, the team at Guerrilla Games has announced the next title in the series, Killzone 3, and judging from our recent hands-on playtest, we can tell you the game is shaping up very nicely indeed. Before Sony bombards the industry with tons of Killzone 3 info at next month's Electronic Entertainment Expo, we thought we'd jump in first and present the top ten things we think should make it into the next in the series.

[dangert12]

i can only think of one and tat would be better grenade throwing

[knightdarkbox]

I need colour in this game.

I hate games all 1 "grey" colour in this game. Killzone 2 needed more colour. Still that didn't mean it was crap, because it's still one of the best PS3 exclusives graphics, i just hate the mundane environment of this game.

[Conloles]

A fun game, I don't care if they tone down the graphics in order to make it more fun I just thought KZ2 was pretty meh I didn't actually feel like I was having fun during it. Seems less stale now though so hopefully its much better, jetpacks = fun.

[Sm0k3y_Bac0n]

I have the same problem with Killzone. Every map except Radec academy is just too dark and too grey. It makes me feel depressed and is the main reason I moved back to CoD4

[captain-obvious]

i dont see you bitch about gears of war

[Independent_Charles]

gears of war is not grey. well atleast gearsv of war 2 isnt

edit*thankyou for the disagrees :) lol

[Independent_Charles]

but yeah i still have not got a ps3, so peronally i feel that my point is not as valid as the people that are fans of KZ but still , i have played it, and imho i think that more color, less blur(arguable), better map design(when i played i got annoyed over the amount of spawn killing going on and i admit im not the best at it but still...) and co-op. fix that and you have a +1 ps3 sale. hope i wasn't to biased :)

[gijsbrecht]

@ Independent
Frankly, KZ2 has lots of colour. Just play the segment of the AA gun on the New Sun. I think I have seldom seen a more beautiful and brighter vista than that part of the game. And that is just one example. It's just that the game is full of violence and warfare which makes it 'feel' so much darker than it actually is.

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

@Independant

Actually the map design in Killzone 2 is amazing imo. It has just the right amount of open spaces and choke points, and the objectives lead you to those places.

[UltraNova]

In all honesty why dont people understand that this grey monotonous and depressive warfare atmosphere is what GG wanted to show us!

I loved it the way it was. I certainly didn't have Modern warfare's and Halo's color pallet in mind when i was playing it. And I m glad i didn't just play a freaking FPS clone AGAIN!

The controls were equally unique and realistic but again why should they cater to Call of duty fans? Is this a call of duty title?

If they dont like it then why buy it and then bitch about it? Go play COD and STFU!

GG if you're reading this let all the haters go F()k themselves and do what you clearly know how to do, make KZ3 a unique game again. Do it for the real gamers.

[mrcash]

Why would he mention gears of war on a killzone article?
Killzone's color suits it just fine, its the way it was meant to be played, i prefer it over uc2's colorful cartoony feel

[Biggest]

So you're fighting for your life on a war torn planet. Where the hell are the trees and sunshine? Where is my mojito on the beach? WHERE IS MY HAPPINESS?!?!?!

[Comet]

That is why I wanted Killzone 3 to take place on Earth.
So they can display rich color like in Uncharted 2.

Unfortunately, we're the minority in wanting to see this happen...
But hey, just opinion, and I guess a lot of people out there like the gray depressing looks.

[Sm0k3y_Bac0n]

Captain Obvious

What's gears of war got to do with this? Who cares about the colour scheme on GeOW? All we're saying is it'd be nice to have more colour in a game. Tharsis Depot was by the far the most drab and depressing map I have ever played in a videogame.

[rezzah]

I bet your gona be one of those guys who are gona complain about the colours being too white now since theres gona be snow.

[RedDevils]

you forgot Naked chick :P

[MrJack]

Guerilla will 9/10 of these things and everyone would still nitpick it to death like last time.

e.g "the 3D version has more jaggies, and we heard sev swear once or twice, so we give it a 7/10"

Hell if the entire game is perfect EDGE will still deduct points becuase it isn't on the 360.

[Independent_Charles]

i lold at that comment. but yeah better mp map design(i got spawn killed alot, i admit though im not the best)co-op or atleast a differant co-op campaign(resistance style) more color and less blur(but thats down to personal opinions, but then again isnt everything?)
do that and youll have an extra ps3 sale;

[gta2800]

On top of that, they will criticize the game for "ripping off" other games. The list consists of things that have already been done in other games or features that other games have. Although some would be nice improvements if implemented, GG will be criticized by the fan boys for "copying", although they're whining for these things to be added/changed to.

[Davoh]

I actually agree with most of those points but I have to say that about the need to refine controls, every shooter is different and as gamers we learn to change our playing style accordingly, every game can't have the same controls. And the environment diversity, true I have never seen so many shades of grey in my life but it's a war torn, gritty planet, not the most colourful of settings.

[mastiffchild]

Bang on with the assertion that the controls hep define a shooter. All GG managed when they foolishly patched the, previously fitting, controls was to alienate a lot of those gamers who would otherwise have stuck with the game having learned to love and appreciate the heavier controls throughout the beta and the release of the game. And why? To appease those people moaning that it wasn't COD! the same people who were never going to stay once MW2 released anyway.

I like Halo and COD just fine but don't see why other shooters must control like they do to be any good! What's wrong with a l;earning curve? Why should we think we have a divine right to like EVERY game either? The devs had a vision for their game and the controls were integral to that. they fit the game and if they didn't suit you then why not just accept that KZ2 wasn't the game for you? that's what annoyed me about it:the game had to be ruined for those who loved it to accommodate those who didn't! It was like the tail wagging the dog and had GG looked at it right they'd have seen that those complaining were those same people waiting for MW2!

The whole game was oppressive in atmosphere and the controls added to that no end-and did so with aplomb. I hope to see them back and NOT a slide further into the generic "me too" comntrol BS of THAT patch. I don't even like the prospect of being able to choose classic KZ or COD style controls as I like a level playing field with everyone using the same set of tools but above all I want my shooters to have a little variety and a little ID-why would we all want them to feel the damn same just to avoid learning anything new? Are we THAT lazy and scared of change these days? I'm an old gimmer(I admit it) but even I'm up for trying something new-so why was there all the moaning about the controls?

The number of colours they managed to wash into Helghan was actually pretty impressive. People seem to forget that the desert was all oranges and reds and purples(reflected from some amazing skyscapes)among other areas where the greys and browns were unavoidable to set the scene-but again , it was all fitting for the game's backdrop and atmosphere. I wasn't aware we were fighting in Club Tropicana you know!

[xenovis]

I think some experienced it more than others, but KZ2 "Weighty" feel was more due to the lack movement due to restrictive culling and texture redraw. Halo implemented a weighty feel to the controls without a mass of people complaining. The fact is, is that KZ2 had as much as 300ms+ of lag in the controls that doesn't make them "weighty" it makes them lagged.

http://i42.tinypic.com/e067...

Demand good controls for FPS's the reason there was such a rift in the community about the KZ2 controls is because it was (People that play FPS's regularly) vs. (People who don't), and anyone can be trained to eat dog food if they've never had steak before.

[n4gno]

Controls are just perfect, only call of noobs have problems, just set your sensitivity right, and it's the better console fps for competitive purpose : just a fact (you will never beat a better player than you, like you can in modern warfare and others)

[hennessey86]

nobody wants killzone to play like cod or halo but the controls were not responsive enough. I lost interest in the game after about an hour because i cudnt get used to them n ive been playin fps since the perfect dark n golden eye games i love cod and halo and u can turn the auto aim off before any one mentions that which i do. I dont think the ps3 pad is the problem because bioshock,mag,fear 2 all played ok killzone 3 will have to improve on the control and multiplayer front to get hardcore fps players to spend there mony. And to all those who moan about cod just play hardcore mode its much harder. And am i the only one who thinks killzone 2 wernt that good looking it doesnt compare to uc2

[Sm0k3y_Bac0n]

I prefer Killzones control after the patch, but they were never an issue for me. The only problem I ever had with Killzone was the colour scheme.

[deafwing]

I admit it took a while to get use but it wasn't too bad. Easy nade tosses are also quite cheap (especially on MP) so I also enjoyed the fact that not a lot of people got cheap nade kills on MP matches.

[xTruthx]

"If any of these ideas happen to feature in the finished product, send all thank you mail to the IGN inbox, complete with donations. We accept cheque, Paypal or cold, hard cash"

LOL WHAT ?

[Rashonality]

@Biggset

well that's the beauty of the idea
if they could put beaches and sunshine and stuff without losing the war/destruction feel IT WOULD KILL...

[UnSelf]

only things that need to be fixed:

-Make Sev taller

-Curse when necessary aka better writing

-absolutely NO auto aim (i swear i would not buy if there is)

-I absolutely love the controls but whatever, make em a TAD lighter, not COD light

-Longer campaign

-Much more weapons and more classes

-Revamped MP system

thats it

[cool cole]

Perfect list.

+Bubbles

[solar]

innovation would be nice....and LOL at 33 disagrees for criticism. what a sad sad community N4G is.

[Hanif-876]

Which game have you been playing? The grenade throwing in Killzone 2 is perfect!

[ico92]

the only thing i could ever ask from killzone 3 besides co-op is a better story the KZ series have always had this great concept of a future world war, the story was there but what KZ2 lacked was development of characters, KZ3 sounds really interesting tho its kinda like Black Hawk Down in space

[likedamaster]

The list isn't bad. I'll probably play the game anyway.

[DatNJDom81]

The first ones to comment on a Killzone 3 article are all Killzone/PS3 haters. Kinda used to it though. It's been happening since Killzone 2. Anyway why is ign asking for 10 things they want in Killzone 3? They still are going to rate it lower than haloozzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz reach and gears of warzzzzzzzzz. We already know the drill with them and the rest of the "gaming media". It's so predictable. ign wouldn't know quality if it hit them in the face.

[otherZinc]

11. Campaign co-op, not cheap @ss side mission co-op, but campaign co-op!

12. No more re-spawning enemies.

13. No more scripted events.

With those 13 corrections (my 3 + IGN's 10) would make for a worthy competitor when it releases.

[Hellsvacancy]

Even if KillZone 3 has all of those 10 things IGN will still find summin wrong with it and mark it down

[dangert12]

ign review for this game is thee best i've seen full stop well killzone 2 sorry it was superb

[SprSynJn]

What?

[Rumor]

dude, grammar

[toaster]

The implementation of 3D will be... interesting. It won't be the first game to use 3D but Sony is pushing the 3D revolution. 3D has been on PCs for a while but it hasn't quite been as popular and mainstream as a lot of people would like. But with uniform tech across all PS3 models 3D could be easier to circulate to the masses.

Guerilla Games has one hell of a franchise under their belt, I'm a PC guy and I absolutely loved Killzone 2. I'll be keeping an eye on KZ3 closely.

[arakouftaian]

beta tests for SONY, if someone can make 3d huge
is SONY with the PS3 you can enjoy the best 3d blu movies
and soon hardcore games like GT5, KILLZONE 3 and i think KILLZONE 2 and soon many other games.
plus all the movies and the world cup and soon the super ball ''american futbol'' and other sport in 3d will make people buy 3d tvs ' 'ESPN 3d''

[deafwing]

I didn't even realize this ... but the PSN downloadable game "Invincible Tiger - Legend of Hand Tao" has 3D implemented in it already ... and that game was released last year O_o. Either the developers read the gaming market early or they have a crystal ball. I like it (3D in gaming) as an option (like most games that use it) and as a factor that could add to the game experience, nothing more.

[Strange_Evil]

I am up for Better graphics, a longer story line, Co-op. But please I hate it when people remark about the 'weighty' controls. They give the game an authentic feel and not make it another COD clone.

[thief]

Reviews seem to suggest controls similar to BF:BC, some feeling of weight but not going the CoD/Halo route completely

My main wish is co-op. That was the best part of games like Resistance 2, Uncharted 2 and Spliner Cell conviction.

[SilverSlug]

a BF:BC clone?

In all seriousness, they are fine.

[beavis4play]

the controls on KZ2 is what gave it the realism and made it kick-ass!

if the nancys that complained the first time found it "too hard" (said with a whiny, girly voice).......then they can play a game like battlefield/COD which has training wheels on the the controls.

i LOVED the controls in KZ2!

what i would like to see is the story returning to the quality of the first one. #2s story wasn't as much of a continuation of #1 as i'd hoped.

[raztad]

I dont understand very well, did people try to increase sensitivity in KZ2 controls? because it makes a hell of a difference. I mean KZ2 can be very responsive to the controls, almost twitchy, the only difference are the weighty animations.

I love KZ2 (beat it in hard, replaying it in Elite) and I expect great things from KZ3 my unique concern is Guerrilla making the wrong decisions about the controllers.

[deafwing]

... most gamers rarely visit the option menu. It's like FF (insert #) .... I remember showing a friend the difference between Active and Wait ATB in FF XII and he changed his opinion about the battle system after seeing how it's really used. These things are never really pronounced that you can change things in these games sometimes.

[Maldread]

Strange Evil i agree with you. I like they heavy feel too, but as thief says they`re adjusting them. I good thing in my opinion as they wasn`t perfect in K2 and that was the main problem people had with it.

I don`t know why people insist on it being COD controls though. Sure a lot of COD players complained, but they was not they only ones. Before K2 i can`t recall another game which had weight to it`s weapons (correct me if i`m wrong though). So, a "weightless" FPS has pretty much been there from the start. Not just COD. What COD do have though, is auto aim and lots of it.

[Maldread]

GG has already confirmed nearly all of IGN`s ten points, so i`m a bit unsure why IGN didn`t go into the multiplayer section (except for co-op), of killzone instead.

The only thing on IGN`s list GG hasn`t talked about is co-op and customisable weapons. Co-op hasn`t been confirmed yet, even though i seem to recall it being said in one story that it would have 2 and 4 player co-op.

I really hope they have co-op in some form though. Would be great fun. Hopefully E3 will tell us more. Would kill for a trailer and more info now ;)

[bjornbear]

1: the ability to bitch about it when it comes out =P

i had to, well all know the media can't stand the AWESOMENESS that is KZ3

[Gmarino]

I thought they were all pretty good points apart from number 8) Refined Controls.

The control was different in KZ2, but that didn't , make it bad. I liked it, it made KZ2 a completely different experience to worse games like MW2.

[vTuro24]

-secondary fire button back
-a nice story
-some of the killzone 1 guns back and lots of new ones
-the stuff in the article minus the cod like controls. Just because there are lots of nerdos playing COD all day it doesn't mean everything has to be like COD. I want them to stick with the Killzone 2 controls.
Also the swearing didn't bother me. I mean cmon it's a M rated game, set in a war in the future, with lots of blood and stuff. IMO they can keep the swearing, I just want Rico to be more usefull this time.

[beavis4play]

i'd swear constantly too.......AND shoot anything that moves.

[the-show-stopper]

swearings alrite but its alot stronger if you dont use it in every sentence unless of course someone is having a panic attack but if their just talking they dont need to swear constantly

[Biggest]

Swearing isn't meant to add weight to the action. Infantrymen swear because that is what they do. This isn't 1779 and they aren't fighting a gentlemans war. It am more annoyed by BC2's misplaced comments when you use the knife. The motherfucker won't take that, fool! I was opening a door!

[NecrumSlavery]

Split screen/Online Co-op for the full campaign.

[Colonel-Killzone]

Every damn game has different controls. Obviously the people talking about the controls have very few games or only COD. I have over 15 games Never do I complain about the controls I just adjust myself to them simple as that. GG updated KZ2 for about 6 months straight. And hardly Anyone appreciated anything they did they constantly complained and moaned GG fixed basically everything people was complaining about AND they still had to find something to complain about sigh gamers. No they deserve to be called children. Everyone has the right to complain but there it gets to the point where you just whine to whine.

[thehitman]

I play a shit load of games even PC games and I can adjust myself to fit the controls. Its called SKILL and people without skill will suck and obviously complain and blame anything they can.

[bjornbear]

sure they will make the controls more accessible with the option for "casual" controls, but I hope they don't change the default one bit, simply because im so accustomed to it its almost natural to me...and if they change it will feel weird =S -

- HOWEVER, if they do I will adapt, since thats what I had to do to learn how to use them (something everyone who complains about KZ2's controls didn't bother to do - learn how to use them)

please keep the whole momentum-motion thing going, it gives the game a flow that is unmatched in ANY game ever

[Ravage27]

you just KNOW that those same idiots will find something to bitch about even if GG implemented every single one of their 'wishlist'

If you remember the weeks leading up to KZ2's release, the haters were coming up with new excuses every single day to downplay the game.

Haters: The graphics aren't living up to the hype!
Eye-popping gifs started floating around after the beta.
Silence.
Haters: The AI sucks!
Videos showing helghast soldiers ducking from grenades.
Silence.
Haters: Ok lets see how well it will score in the reviews
Glowing reviews start pouring in.
Silence.
Haters: Teh controls!!! Where's my auto aim?
GG releases patch enabling high precision mode.
Haters: I'm still getting owned!! Where's my nuke? How am i suppose to get kills otherwise??!

[Perkel]

ducking from granades ? Fuc* i saw they they can throw a granade at wall to simply bounce off and get you if you are hiding behind cover.

They can throw granade in windows and then bounce off the wall.

They change place of cover after you shoot them in their curent cover. If he was on left side of cover, after you shoot him he will change place for on right side or on top or he will Lie down and wait to see you uncovered.

AI in Killzone is the most wicked AI after AI Unreal Tournament 1 on Godlike level.

And everyone must try Elite lvl. It's other galaxy. Radec on Elite will give you hell for 5-6 h alone. Visari palace is another hell on Elite...

[arakouftaian]

but it did sale good and KILLZONE 3 will do much better .

btw i have notice that there are going to be haters for KILLZONE 3
but not on the level of KILLZONE 2 and that is really good .

[gta2800]

You my friend are an opened minded individual. One who is down to try new things and embrace these new things and are up for any challenge. You learn new things and adjust to them. These are people are spoiled brats who want everything easy. They are so used to playing nooby shooters like COD that when they play something more difficult or more difficult to master and start getting owned they can't handle the challenge and start crying about how they want the game to be just like the nooby game they happened to get good at in a few days or maybe few hours playing it. I'm just like you. I always just adjust to the control schemes different games offer. I just keep playing till I get used to it and start getting better. I don't quit just because they game isn't like that other game or this other game. Freakin noobs man. Just stay at COD. We don't need you noobs. You're the ones whop get popped whithin seconds and make the game too easy. Shut your yaps, stay at COD and leave KZ for the pros where they real challenged are at.

[fuckitimout]

those controls were just fuck3d up. It's a fact. The controls were like that due to technical issues, not a weight system. Resrarch it. Just cause someone doesn't like kz2's controls doesn't mean they don't have or played many games or is a COD 'noob'. Not everyone likes the controls. That doesn't make them any less of a gamer than you are

[DarkChris]

Seems like they didn't want to call this news a "leak"... So they just called it a "wishlist"... Clever ;)

IGN already knows what of this stuff will be in the final game... So why should they make a "wishlist"...

Also most of their list is already leaked / confirmed... So it's most likely that the rest is true as well...

[chidori666]

"One of the reasons the Halo franchise is so successful is the overarching narrative the series carries. Killzone 2 suffered from an underdeveloped plot and characters that basically left the player wondering why they should care about the lives of the soldiers at hand."

inba,You can't spell ignorance without I-G-N..

nuff said.

[ATLGAMER]

All those things ..I could put up against GeOW and yet they still dont think anything wrong with gears

[dalibor]

K2 actually offered a good amount of control setups. There was one that was even similar to COD. People need to go back to Megaman and realize that controls this generation is not as hard as it used to be. Imo every game needs to be able to let you adjust the button configuration how you want it so people don't b*tch about it. Getting K3 and keep the f*cking swearing intact, it's a mature game people and a warzone for crying out loud. K3 is going to be the sh*t. Damn I swore again you offended yet?

[EverydayGuy]

I just want offline co-op, and the secondary fire.

[Darrius Cole]

1. Party System - We Need to be able to get a group of friends together and then look for games as a unit.

2. Party System - We need a system that can create games from several units of 2, 3, or 4 players and assemble those groups into factions while keeping each party intact as a squad.

3. Mort time to talk to my team before the game launches. Killzone 2 only gave about 30 seconds in the lobby; it wasn't enough time for a team that required so much teamwork in order to win.

4. Some sort of check and balance for the tactician. Tacticians were the single most important position in the game. If your team had a bad one then you were screwed no matter how good the rest of the team was...and there was no way to stop him.

5. No more overpowered classes. Assualt Class.

6. More game-types that force the game to spread out over more of the map instead of sending all 32 players into the same room trying to set/diffuse a bomb while everyone else is constantly throwing explosives into said room.

7. Perhaps a way to play several game-types at once. For instance, leave the territories active while all the other game objectives are going on at once. That way everyone one can choose from several objectives and lots of points on the map would be worth defending at one time.

[BABY-JEDI]

Easy solution to this would be to force each team not only to play an offensive role but a defensive role. Requiring teams to hold the line & reinforce defences while having to deploy offensive forces.
Engineer x2 Teams build large range guns. Sabatoures plant mines ect.

[BABY-JEDI]

Quite simply keep the theme's & the immersion going. Have dropships in the multi-player. If the ships get attacked via rockets ect. then players on board must apply a sequence of botton pushes to stay on board to reach rheir destination, if not then they fall into no-mans land with some damage.

[Dylantalon1]

killzone 3 should be just like killzone 2 with upgrades and from the little information ive gathered from previews then i think GG are on the right track with the game. killzone 3 doesnt need to have customisable weapons. it also doesnt need to be a twitch shooter like cod, people should just learn to adapt to playing different games or just move on. i hate c.o.d , gears 2 halo and some other games but i dont wish for them to be different because there are other games that i like. i love the killzone series so i want the mechanics to stay the same with improvements on the engine itself. killzone 2 in my opinion is the best shooter ive played and it doesnt suffer from exploits or glitches like a lot of other shooters

[twostep18]

all i want is a 3 in the title cause i know its gunna be epic like the last one! =D

[TheFlyingPenguin]

The only thing I want in KZ3 is Rico getting shot in the face with a shotgun.

[the-show-stopper]

thats way too fast
how bout Sev and Rico both get captured and then they Torture Rico till his death and then just as the Helghast are about to do the same with Sev the ISA troops come in and save Sev

[bloodybutcher]

yes!and in this bit you play as a hellghast soldier torturing rico:Dand you have various instruments of torture to choose from!lets say 5 to choose and you can only use 2 of them.it'll give you something you'd want to do again to see different outcome of torture.yummy.

[mrcash]

the only thing they need to fix, is the loading. I couldn't stand how often kz had to loan in one level constantly interrupting the gameplay. A mandatory install might help with this.

[arakouftaian]

that they are using a new tech to make loading fast

You can go to killzone.com
and check the forums

[gijsbrecht]

Yep, by streaming the stuff they fixed the hick ups while loading. KZ3 should be a smooth experience in that department.

[frankymv]

The wait will be very painful

[Funky Town_TX]

1. FUN
2. FUN
3. FUN
4. FUN
5. FUN
6. FUN
7. FUN
8. FUN
9. FUN
10.FUN

Fix the controls add 4 player split and lots of vehicles. Now I will buy a PS3 for that sh8t. I have a blue-ray player so there is no need to get one now. Come on Killzone 3 make it happen.

[raztad]

Sorry bro, better go back to whatever FPS you were playing.

KZ2 is incredible fun and exciting, and I HOPE GG dont mess with KZ2 controls just to content people wanting more autoaiming and floaty movement.

BTW, how do you even know KZ2 is not fun if you dont have a PS3?

[Funky Town_TX]

Not everyone thinks the same. If that was the case then KZ2 would have sold 30 milion copies. Take a chill pill. BTW, there is a thing called friends. I did not know that I needed to like KZ2. And yes, I will go back to my FPS of choice.

[BlackIceJoe]

All I really want is split-screen co-op. But if I could have more I would like to see secondary fire back. Plus being able to play as different characters. I liked in KZ you could play as different people and when you did they each had different ways of playing.

[gijsbrecht]

What I am curious about is the kind of enemies we are going to encounter in the SP. Especially in the jungle part. I hope we'll see some extremely lethal wild life there. Could be fun and beautiful to watch.

[e-p-ayeaH]

And refine the controls doesnt mean that they will change them for good i hope its more like an option than rather a replacement

Considering that i didnt enjoyed KZ2 very much cause of the controls and the slow pacing werent familiar to KZ1´s at all so everyone was the right to say about that!

Everyone as likes and dislikes and disagree what i like its just immature at full force.

[raztad]

KZ1 is very slow paced. Very. Come on, KZ:Liberation is slow paced.

If you increase control sensitivity and check High Precision Controls you will get more autoaiming and faster spinning.

[ALFAxD_CENTAURO]

Those kind of people complaining about the controls.

Is people without Skills to play Killzone, that's a fact.

ZERO SKILLS. They don't know what is Practice.

[JonnyBigBoss]

More precise controls will only create a larger community not make the game better. KZ2's controls were fine.

I just want some level of co-op, that's all.

[Chapulin]

10) Less Unnecessary Cursing

F%$#@%U!!!!

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

I can't wait to use the WASP! It's exactly like the LAARK from Resistance though...which I really missed in R2. :(

[TheBand1t]

Actually, it reminds me a RYNO more then the LAARK.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Make Sev taller!!! How hard is that? IGN! How could you leave that out?

[BannedForNineYears]

-sigh@The first 10 trolling comments-
Anyone who says Killzone 2 is all grey and brown obviously haven't beaten the game yet.
There are plenty of brighter environments (Specifically closer to the end).
Gears of War has more black and brown, I've beaten both......So.......

I'm sure that if they change the controls to make it feel like COD to appease the COD players, on the review they will say that it is just another COD clone. That's the kind of hypocrisy that goes rampant on the industry nowadays.

Leave the controls like they are. If i want to play COD i will play COD not Killzone, and, since I want to play killzone because it is a completely different experience, then i will play killzone, with its unique controls and features.

Just gimme KZ3 soon and I will be happy:):)
And on topic about issue 5: nice bias considering other consoles can't do stereoscopic 3d, all I have heard so far from KZ3 3D is nothing but good feedback, one thing for sure is so far it does not feel like a gimmick:):)

[redsnake]

my number one thing i want is offline multiplayer.

[fuckitimout]

kz2 controls were laggy due to technical problems but idiots will always say it's the weight system hahaha

[n4gno]

idiots/noobs don't know anything about the perfect controls in kz2, it's just for skilled people, not for others.

[fuckitimout]

since they're perfect to you they're perfect to me? Stupid and arrogant statement. Hahaha if someone doesn't like kz2's controls then that means they're less skilled? Get off your high horse. It's a game not an sat. Like I said, it was technical issues. Not a weight system. Research it.

"3) Greater Weapon Variety""9) Customisable Weapons"

Add "more trophys/grades" to the list and you have the perfect wishes for young noobies killing all the great fps with their dumbs pleasures/collections : only the gameplay, the maps, controls, graphics, etc and the victory/frags counts, all the call of noob's crap is for casuals/trophy hunters.

KZ2 was awesome and I think GG will implement at least most of these things, if not all. Be excited! Be very excited!

[TooTall19]

The only thing they need to fix is the response time, which they already implemented in KZ3. I don't care either way about the swearing so I guess they can get rid of it to appease the pussies. It's confirmed they are fixing that. They also said they were going to improve the story. I'm all for more vehicles in single player, and if they do show up in mp (I hope they don't) I'd like to be able to disable them.

GUNS
Big Big Guns
And big big ammo.

Seriously though.

Tighten controls abit.
Better story
Painted ladies
care packages - (oops already doen)
Dogs (oops already done)
Vehicles
Capture the women.
Night maps with googles
Fat people with zombies chasing them(gabe newell style)
Chainsaws for the jungle part, chop down those trees.
Warships 2up.

All i can think of right now.

For the people who have a problem with killzone 2's color, go play halo 3 there's LOTS of color in that.

My 10 would be:

> engaging story & characters, and better voice acting

> coop for sp & mp

> Party System

> vehicles for sp & mp ... and available throughout sp

> No spawn flares. Have spawn zones, spawn on team leader or spawn vehicles like MAG

> All weapons made available in sp & mp .... including knife in MP

> greater variety of weapons

> Better ranking up system at least like MAG/BC2

> expert mp bot ai so games will be ranked. Also, allow bots/humans to easily substitute in or out of a game ensuring full and balanced games....no worry if your team mates quit on you.

> Novelty Horde/Zombie mode, NV/IR goggles, Gas Mask, Roll & Climb, modern weaponry rewards(MP7, P90, Tavor, Steyr AUG, etc)

Killzone 2 was a great game. I hope they keep the tournament and matchmaking system - it was amazing! If they do that, I'll be sure to pick up this game on its release date.

[jmallymav]

But if it doesn't have a rebuilt multiplayer lobby matchmaking, then I'm selling kz3 after I beat the game on hard. game coming out 2011, no excuses to not have lobby to get up with friends to play together, never had a problem with weighty controls, I agree it takes skills to play kz2, not for the weak

[rezzah]

They need VSs like from LP2, a hover bike ould be cool.

[asgharagha]

i only need much more impressive visuals and longer single player mode

[Dannycr]

Well, get off your high horse too, 'cause your first comment is arrogant as well.

Most people who played Killzone 2 are comfortable with the controls. Just because you think it's a technical issue and that we must do some research (oh the internetz) doesn't mean you have the absolute truth and even if that is true, well, we just don't care. We play games we like and we don't care whether you like it or no. If you don't like killzone, there are thousands other games you can try.

[MonopolyRSV]

IGN is out of line about the controls. It's not their place to say the Killzone series, which only the hardcore fans have supported this whole time, should now suddently be compromised to suit Call of Duty players.

For those who want a sci-fi shooter with great graphics, but don't like Killzone controls, remember that you still have Crysis 2 coming. Don't be selfish; theres good enough variety out there in the shooter genre for everyone to have a personal preference.

No compromises GG. Fear your real fans more than you fear IGN review scores.
