Wish the comparisons to cod would stop, why compare it to such a shit game with no skill required

looks a lot more like CoD than the previous instalments to me :/
Well, aside from the shield thing, the gameplay looks pretty plain. Run, gun, no recoil, get points, rinse repeat.
I really haven't been following it much, but what is the multiplayer's "hook"? Where's the addictive element that's going to keep people playing (aside from the assumed leveling system)? Is it going to rely solely on its gunplay mechanics?
Everyone is raving about how good it looks, but not about the gameplay. I know this is a bit unfair since it's a Team Deathmatch video afterall and doesn't demonstrate other gametypes, but it just doesn't seem to play much differently than your average shooter. It looks like a prettier CoD to me, and I have rinsed my hands clean of CoD a long time ago.

R Why would I want to buy/play this over BF4, Call of Duty, Halo, etc?Crysis 3 beats it in grahpics if that's all you care about, and other games seem to have more interesting weapons/abilities/mechanics/vehicles, so in my book it seems pretty boring.

Youtube is 30 fps but there are obvious fps drops in the video.

Two things I picked up straight away:
1. Where the hell is recoil? If you look carefully the gun shakes but the reticle is steady as as a brick house.
2. Clean up the camera shake, lens flare and blood splatter. Too much going on at once.

You should not be able to shoot through them.

Looks like I've choose the right bundle.
Seriously its such s la lazy comparison.
The gunplay was always one of Killzone's strenghts, in my opinion.
Meaty and satisfying, you feel like you're actually pumping guys full of lead.
The sound does a great job of enhancing this. I looooooove the RAT-TAT-TAT of the submachine gun in the video.

Pretty sure this is banworthy. I'd edit this post if I were you.
Sorry, just wasting time while my internet loads this up in 720p

It's said the be lighter than previous games, the gunplay is mostly ADS, and they have no recoil. I don't find the comparisons out of line.
This has slightly more health going for it though.
Yeah, I'm not too worried about it. They'll be ways to counter it anyway.
Really hoping Guerrilla hit their target for 60 frames. That + free DLC will hold me off buying BF4/Ghosts.
No chance.
You know, after see this vid the comments they made about the triggers make perfect sense. No need for an L1/R1 control scheme when there's absolutely no reason to ever release the shoot button.
Agreed. Team deathmatch is usually a pretty complex mode.
The weapons and reload animations are outstanding, even by GG standards. Holy freaking crap. Sounds are excellent too.
I think the furst gun is the new version of it. The M85 Rumbler according to the pickup boxes.
OMG those fucking guns. I fear for the M82 though

The hook in Killzone's MP is in the Warzone gamemode. This video is just plain team deathmatch. Warzone is so much more fun.

I'm looking forward to this game!
This, indeed. Warzone is really fun. I wonder why other games havnt copied it.

Is the game in SLOW-MO? I feel like it is... It looks generic, too! Oh well..
The LMG and shotguns seem to have a decent amount. Wish other guns were the same.

I'm not sure why people are so quick to compare it to CoD. Just the fact that your characte doesn't drop the second that someone pulls the trigger on their gun is enough to make it different from CoD.

This is one pretty game. If they can get 60fps that's just a bonus, though the framerate in some parts looked rough.

I'm having to sit back and let the video buffer for a bit again. Haven't got to those sections yet. Could it be that they've 'dumbed down' the MP for the press at Gamescom? Does that even happen?
Well, I tried Blim. Guess he didn't like my last comment on the PS4 UI video. bwahaha
Ah, I saw that! One of my comments got deleted and now I'm blocked too :L

As someone who has never really played KZ before, I think this looks fantastic.
There's only one or two shots with the pump action but it seems to have some serious kick. The auto shotty seems to be the same way.

I guess you havnt played Killzone 2 or 3? Otherwise i dont quite understand the slow-mo comment unless there is something with the video that i didnt notice. What do you mean with that it looks generic? What would it need to not look generic?

That looks like deathmatch with perks. Yep.
Any unique modes this time around? Something besides the standard deathmatch, territories or capture the flag thats in every shooter? Is Operations coming back?

Visually looks good but I don't like the turtle movement or the one way shooting shields. Correct me if I am wrong but can't you just sit behind a shield and kill people easily entering a choke point?
Also, whats with the enemy visors giving off a glaring light that screams enemy head right here? I don't like that... Stuns seem to have the secondary benefit of giving a big highlight to the enemy. A ton of light shafts that I assume cannot be disabled seem to get in the way. I assume its a low FOV from how slow you look like you are moving even while sprinting.
People are saying no recoil but I see it... it is just a very minimal amount. You can't exactly deal with recoil on a controller the same way you can with a mouse so they put minimal amounts in.

OH MY GOD.
Looks so good. Love all the effects. Was thinking of cancelling this pre order and waiting to see more impressions but got damn that looked fairly next gen.

It doesnt look like direct feed, it has strangely, differently lit parts of the screen.
Also framerate is very strange in this encoding. Its sometimes slower it should be, in other scenes it skips frames, really weird.
I like DoF when You get hit and near explosion. Although i wouldnt want it in any MP game, i would play seriously, it would irritate me that i cant see shit

It's like that Auger weapon from Resistance. I think it can result in some cool gameplay moments but the shield functionality should be limited by Guerrilla Games.
The single player is 30 fps, but 60 fps is fine in MP. The only chance this game has of competing with CoD is if it runs at 60 fps which it does.
