Killzone 2 Dated.

[Zimman]

Yeah, update seemed to fix most of the basic bugs.

Noticing a lot of people with the 1% badge background are sucking a lot in these rooms lately. Dont know if its because of the auto-aim fix, or just random people having an off game.

Also, whats the body count limit now. Forgot to check it out before I logged off yesterday.

[OzzofAsura]

The honors aren't really hard to get. I got one while goofing around getting badges most of the week. My stats sucked and I still got one. Kinda ruined it for me a bit, how easy most of the goals were.

[Zimman]

I know they aren't terrible to get, its more of playing the game a lot. But usually when you get someone whos playing it that much, they aren't terrible at the game. I've ran into a few people who are going like 20-40 in the game.

[Norelco]

I spent the weekend fucking around with different things in multiplayer that worked out nicely.

1. Assault + Medic subjob in games where rocket launcher and grenade launcher was disabled. It was incredibly easy to either cap someone off with my m4 or find a random machine gun or shot gun lying around.

Killed one or two peeps, then self healed with the health pack. You get double health still. =) Easily increased my k/d ratio and pissed off a few people along the way.

2. Assault + Engineer subjob in games where rocket is enabled. Self explanatory. Find an ammo box, repair it, and just camp the area spamming rockets. Fantastic on Tharsis Depot if you're on the 2nd story.

3. This one was awesome and made me laugh. Helghast Engineer on Radec Academy during the s&d defense portion. I set up a turret bot next to a corner and hid behind the corner. ISA after ISA kept storming that hallway and trying to kill my bot while I just kept repairing it constantly. I racked up about 20-30 (it was a 30 minute round) bot kills lol. So satisfying to hear "de-bleep, de-bleep, de-bleep" from a bot. Died a few times once people caught on to what I was doing and came at me from behind or tossed a few grenades.

Random thought: Way too many people using Saboteur these days.

[Akiyama]

I noticed the massive amounts of Sabos. So when someone goes Sabo on me or Assault, I go Assault right back. Other than that, I usually go Medic/Tactician/Assault w/Grenade Launcher for the majority of the time with Sniper on a couple select levels.

Had probably my best game though the other night in a long round game. Came in after the first part of the game ended (Bodycount sadly) and finished at 183/62 Kill/Death Ratio and 423 points.

Also, I'm lacking just two medals; the headshot one and the melee one. Outside of that, I've done everything else.

Didn't play TOO much this weekend though, just a few games here and there. Got my purple ribbon back I believe, not that it mattered to me, but my ratio is like 1.3 now and I'm around 12k points.

[Norelco]

I probably lost my purple ribbon this week. Didn't get to play as much b/c of a few wakes and a funeral I attended.

Anyway, I'm 4/8 on headshot ribbon. I figure I'll get it when I get it. I'm 0/8 on Air Support.

Playing with job combos is fun.

[Akiyama]

Yeah. I can do that with every job now, so that's good. Also I think I'm either 5/8 or 6/8 on Headshots. 1/8 on Melee effing blows. I need to work on that sometime. I seem to always just barely come up short with it, lol.

I'm getting super accurate with the Nade Launcher/Rocket Launcher. Love running out of ammo on Assault, picking up a Shottie and rushing someone's base with Boost/shottie action for some head shottan games.

[Devolver]

Yeah. I can do that with every job now, so that's good. Also I think I'm either 5/8 or 6/8 on Headshots.

God, this medal is giving me the hardest time. I usually just start out with the standard guns to start a round, and adjust as needed. But holy shit, it seems i get like 1-2 headshots below what I need to to get these final couple ribbons, even when i count to myself how many I've gotten

Apparently math is hard.

Seriously, headshots is easy to get if you play longer matches.

I got 3 ribbons by sniping on Corinth, especially during capture and hold on the side bridges. Enemy just loves to sit and crouch which makes it easy to aim at the head, especially with 5x scope.

edit: What is melee? the pistol or actually beating people to death?

[Akiyama]

Melee = beating the shit out of people with the butt of the gun and what not.

[Norelco]

Melee = beating the shit out of people with the butt of the gun and what not.

Damn...well then. I'm 0/8 on that.

[Zimman]

Its like 10 times in a round too. Pistol only matches made it fairly easy to get.

Hi Everybody,

Would you say having all the Mission specific Badges make it easier to get the online weekly ranking achievement? And if you manage to get within the 1% of the weekly ranking, do you get the other 3 Trophies as well? (2%-4%, 5%-7% and 8%-10% if my memory doesn't fail me, which probably does).

Thanks a lot in advance for your replies!

Yes, if you get 1% you get all of the other trophies as well.

If you have the Body Count modifier (+3 per bodycount kill), you could play bodycount matches only. I know alot of people do this to get their points for the valor grand cross etc.

Thanks, you gave me indeed a very good idea, much appreciated. =)

Kotaku - First BioShock 2 Footage, "Major" Killzone 2 Announcement On Next GameTrailers TV - bioshock 2

"major" kz2 announcement wed, hmm wonder what this could be

[Cydewinder]

Like others I was thinking it would be co-op, and more maps or even a new class, hard to tell.

Some of the comments think that Miner could be a new class for multiplayer. Looks like Sabo, but uses a different gun.

That would be awesome... would probably get me to play again, at least for a while. I really like KZ2 but certain things (trouble playing with friends, limited game types and mobbing each other to name a few) being changed could make it awesome again.

[Akiyama]

I still play off and on even with no one on. Wish I could get on with some folks, but never see you guys on D: so ah well.
