Yep. The HUD is customizable.

The thread title should be:

Killzone: Mercenary |OT| Not bad for PS3... wait... this is on Vita?!

HT UK · (09-02-2013, 07:31 PM)

Can't decide between digital or retail. My 32GB card already struggles for space :/

Any chance the digital version would be available Thursday in the UK? I've got a lot of travelling to do that day so this would be perfect.

Only around 30 hours left before I can play my preload *hype*.

Very good beta. Will buy.

Evolution_1ne · (09-02-2013, 07:34 PM)

How they managed this on a handheld is beyond me. Hopefully we get quality like this out of Borderlands 2

When are the reviews released?

Cambridge is amazing studio with super duper tech skills (see Ghosthunter on PS2)

I doubt that Borderlands 2 will be this good, it's a UE3 game after all (UE3 games like MK and Dr Who look awful on Vita), I think Sony need to licenses KZ engine to other studios if they want this quality on Vita from third party.

Dunno, but honestly i expect soul sacrifice level of reviews(=bad, reviewers that didn't try multiplayer when ss has big focus on it or that defined ss a button mashing and so on...)

James Sawyer Ford · (09-02-2013, 07:46 PM)

Cannot wait for this, only one more week.

This is the Vita's killer app

Hopefully followed by handheld game of the year Tearaway

Evolution_1ne · (09-02-2013, 07:47 PM)

remember when the game looked like this

The talent at Sony studios is just amazing

sn00zer · (09-02-2013, 07:47 PM)

From playing the beta the game is indeed that good looking....they really put killzone on vita

Diablo Rosso · (09-02-2013, 07:50 PM)

Got this pre-ordered. My body is ready.

Jacob Jones uses UE3 and it looks great. So does Zombie Tycoon 2. Then there's also Real Boxing. Some developers obviously just don't optimize their games very well.

Tested the other multiplayer maps of Killzone Mercenary.

Well the beta one was one of the smallest. The other maps are very cool, very good maps for a multiplayer game...

HYPE

Anyone know when are the review embargoes up?

TheFLYINGManga_Ka · (09-02-2013, 07:58 PM)

So single player at least 10hrs? 1+hr per mission?

Of the levels I've played, Zenith is my favorite. That's just from the betas, though. I liked all three I played, but I loved Zenith.

FoxhoundNL · (09-02-2013, 08:03 PM)

Fucking hype! Hopefully my pre-order will be shipped tomorrow, so I can play a few rounds of multi come wednesday.

Fixed :P
Remember that gaffer that thought the game was shadow fall and said it looked good(even if not as good as before)? Lol

GG Cambridge stated that missions could take up to 45-60 a piece depending on how you play. So I'd say about 8-10 SP missions

The_Monk · (09-02-2013, 08:15 PM)

Oh, such a nice surprise! While the site said they would be delivering the game after the 6th I just got an email saying that the item is on their way so I hope I can get my hands on it by Wednesday morning. Yay.

dreamfall · (09-02-2013, 08:19 PM)

Nice OT!

Looking forward to playing this on the Vita- haven't played much Killzone since 3 last year, it'll be a nice return!

repeater · (09-02-2013, 08:19 PM)

Not long ago, I was hesitant about buying this since "Shadow Fall" is so close by. After playing the beta, I realised that I had to have both of them in my life.
Team British space nazis, assemble!!

If only this game ended with an assassination contract put on Rico.

Sounds good. I hope it's not like Unit 13 with no story to tie these missions together.

There's a story, right? I know it's a portable but I sometimes hate the deliberate focus on mobile with mission based games.

Also, hope for more dlc missions in the future.

Yes, there is a story. Some previews even said it goes deeper into Killzone lore than 2 and 3 did.

kriskrosbbk · (09-02-2013, 10:42 PM)

Got my copy few hours ago.Thought multi will be down,not the case tho lol. Making some frags like well well well

Ok OP, what the heck ... You have plenty of content to update the OT! Sorry if I lack the patience but it shouldn't be that hard .. is it?

the_prime_mover · (09-02-2013, 10:46 PM)

Can't wait! Beta was a lot of fun and I am hoping this will be my go to FPS until November.

Binabik15 · (09-02-2013, 10:58 PM)

I need this game's everything over my anything. I never thought I'd want to play MP on a handhrld besides fighting games in local bouts. But zhe beta is sooo good.

Only bummer is no offline matches or ad-hoc.

In anticipation of Mercenary's release next week, what's the best Vita "grip" accessory? I've been having a blast with the beta but it destroys my hands like nothing else on the system has.

lordchompy · (09-02-2013, 11:09 PM)

With some DLC map packs, Killzone Mercenary could be the premier Vita multiplayer game for a long, long time.

Prelude. · (09-02-2013, 11:13 PM)

Are they airing some kind of tv ads in uk? Its position on the best selling games on amazon uk is not too bad.

Man · (09-02-2013, 11:13 PM)

Is the EU Beta over?

Theecliff · (09-02-2013, 11:15 PM)

Still have yet to get a Vita, looking mighty good!

When's the review embargo lifted?
