Good job on the OT, alr1ghtstart.

The Clan Thread is up for people to put their names down, ready for release. I have to go on a business trip the week of release :(, so FFO will be setting it up and sending out primary invites until I get back Friday night.

Jealous. You planning on doing any more of your crazy awesome offscreen Kuro pics like you did for KZ2?

Possibly, though with this game direct captures imo work better. The IQ is that sharp and clean that it looks fantastic even raw.

Beast of a OP.

I asked this in the KZ3 so thread, but does this game support 7.1 and or lossless audio? I may be getting my terms mixed up here.

Doesn't think so? I have the full game and a 7.1 setup but sound only goes through five of the speakers.

Is it just me or does the Helghast helmet in the OP look worse then this one:

Oh well, still buying Helghast Edition anyway!

ive got my helghast ed on preorder :)

Have to say anyone else feel that a plat on this baby looks a lot easier than KZ2!

MvC3 will be relevant for years to come, so no point in jumping in on day one unless you absolutely adore the series. If you have interest in KZ3's MP, then off course the earlier you start playing, the better.

Yeah, you're right.

I copy my post from the demo thread:

Just played through the demo on hard with move and NO crosshair. Works amazingly well. Wow. Obviously it's a tiny bit harder than with crosshair, but that makes the fun, does it? It's just so much more immersive without that yellowish somewhat thing there...crazy. Best shooter experience this gen, period.

I'll play the game without crosshair. It adds so much to the immersion. It really feels more like the gunplay with the DSIII than just "please move yellow cursor here". It's fun. Really, people, believe me, try it, do it!

The first thing I did on my move playthrough.

Why do they insist on these big releases the week after I have a 3-day weekend? This happened with Infamous as well. Hopefully my friendly local street-date-breaking shop gets a shipment on friday.

Yes! I'm hud off for single player too, just like KZ2. Only way to roll.

Honestly I miss the darker / blurrier / cg-ish look of 2 even though i'm sure this one is technically superior. Regardless, I'm hyped. It's gonna be amazing.

No squad option? Come on! :(

Decreases the amount of spawn killing if playing the beta is anything to go by, although this maybe down to no clusterfuck grenades.

Also, Party system > Squads.

gamersyde review is up and its a really excellent read.

I have to say the contrast between reviewers opinions on the game makes no sense to me.

Call of Duty fans/Killzone 2 vets is the difference between a 7 and a 9 unfortunately

Yeah, there's a devide between people that were hardcore fans of Killzone 2 and the rest of the shooter market that tends to like the CoD style. Not that Killzone 3 isn't a damn well made game, from my experiences, but it it's much more like the other mainstream shooters than Killzone 2 was.

Shurs, a gaffer that played the SP and made a preview in another thread reported a 6-8 hours campaign time. Par to the course on this genre.

That's fine by me, I'll probably replay it a decent amount.

WOW, great OP!!! Finally signed up for the clan. Not sure if I want to switch to Move controls. I tried it once and felt it's quite difficult to do. Not sure if buying a Nav controller and/or the sharpshooter will change things.

BTW, I don't really understand some of the reviews here. So the reviewers are:

KZ2? Plays unlike COD at all! Not good. 7 out of 10.
KZ3? Plays just like COD!! Not good. 7 out of 10.

:(

Anywhere yet do an unboxing or show the Helghast Edition? I would like to see the Helmet better

ps.blog unboxed the GT5 signature edition before the game came out so I'm willing to bet they'll do the same thing with KZ3.

Also the...

Killzone 2 - Greyzone 2 more like ahahaa

Killzone 3 - Killzone 2 looks better, I prefered the "dark, gritty" look

Some people will never be satisfied.

I would love to know the opinion of someone who doesn't care for either one...

I dunno while I liked KZ2, I thought it was deeply flawed. But also calling it like COD is a stretch. They obviously took things in a more COD like direction with the MP, but it still doesn't play like COD.
 
I was 100% sure I was not going to buy this after Killzone 2 but I have sank 12 hours into the beta playing Warzone only, so good. I guess I have to get this.

COD-Black-Ops....yeah greath addition to the shooter genre. Come on, the reviewers are sometimes so lame.

I think most of the people that said Killzone 2 looks better were the ones saying "Shut the hell up, Killzone 2 has a lot of color" to the "Greyzone" people.
 
Amazing OP!

Put my name down, but messed the KZ3 Gaf spreadsheet entries up, their mostly wrong across the board, don't know how I kept screwing it up, but I did.

Okay, so what class is everyone going to put unlock points into first??? I think I'm going to go with my beloved KZ2 class, sab. I can get a ton of points by just dropping melee attacks on unsuspecting fools. I just want to level up asap to max out sab and tactician. I don't care about the rest.

Tactician and Infiltrator here as well. Then maybe Marksman.

I am going in this order:

Tactician > infiltrator > medic > marksman

Tactician is the most important class and a game changer.

Medic all the way first, then tactician or infiltrator, then engineer then marksman. I will be there to heal you gaf. I wub joo.

TACT > INFI = MEDI (still deciding) > MRKS > ENGI

TACT gives the most points/XP ratio, from grabbing location, and the sentry kills do rack up

Might keep playing TACT for a long time, and keep unlocking other shit for other classes, and when the time arises for me to switch, I'll switch my role

Holy FUCK at the screens there. Amazing.

The atmosphere in this screen is fantastic. I think it's from the very beginning the game but it may be a spoiler to some. Probably one of the most reminiscent of scenes from KZ2 that I've seen.

I have no desire to be a marksman, but if the beta is anything to go by, there are going to be a shitload. I can't really blame them, though, since GG made them pretty uber without many negatives.
