  • Team-Based Voice Chat
    Probably the most requested feature of all, team-based in-game voice chat has arrived for Killzone Shadow Fall. The voice chat system will detect if you’re speaking and start broadcasting automatically, no button presses necessary. You can choose to have the voice chat broadcasts play through your controller/headset, or play them through your TV/speakers. In addition, you have the ability to mute individual players or all voice chat broadcasts, and you can turn the voice chat system on or off in your Custom Warzones.
  • Color Blind Support
    Killzone Shadow Fall multiplayer now offers better support for players with color vision impairments. To activate color blind support, go to the Display section in the Options menu and choose from one of three settings.
  • Expanded Personalization Options
    Patch 1.07 paves the way for further personalization of your multiplayer character – not just through automata skins and spotlight moves, but also through custom Voice Packs, which will be available from the PlayStation Store soon.
  • HUD/Radar Improvements
    By popular demand, we’ve made the objective icon slightly larger and changed the image so that it becomes more visible to players. In multiplayer, party members are now shown in blue on the radar, and base camp turret locations are now indicated on the radar by icons.

Thought this warranted a separate thread so that more people notice. Thanks, guys!
 
MAKE sure when your in game you go to options and audio settings at set in game chat audio to 100% its disabled by default and u wont see or hear anyone one!
 
Why in the hell is the option defaulted to disabled?

You have to press the options menu and turn it to 100% to get voice chat to work.

Fix this shit GG, noobs won't understand this lmfao

Still stupid it wasn't there from the beginning, but still nice to see it came sooner rather than later. Actually, quite surprised it was patched in this quickly.
 
I already have cod and bf4 but am tempted by the visuals of kz. Is the sp story at least coherent? Is the multiplayer worth it and what differentiates it from cod and bf?
 
There is no excuse whatsoever for a Multiplayer focused game, let alone on a next gen console, to not have team voice chat built in from the get-go.

good news though

SP is a mixed bag, some like it, others don't. The story isn't amazing (but then again most FPS games nowadays aren't). MP is amazing! Three classes with different abilities. All guns unlocked at start, but attachments are locked behind challenges. Killzone has a unique mode (Warzone), which is multiple modes (TDM, CTF, King of the Hill, etc) in one match. It requires good teamwork to succeed and is really fun. Gunplay is slower than COD, guns feel a bit weighty compared to that series. And there is no aim assist, unlike COD or BF.

Check out the Killzone Multiplayer thread for more opinions and to party up with us!

Awesome update but how can I mute myself and hear other players only? Got a camera attached.

You can create a party and set it to invite only, but don't invite anyone. Then no one can hear your voice but you. But then you can coordinate with your team if you do this.
 
Posted a minute ago, here is a video Q&A with Game Director Steven ter Heide.

To mark the occasion we also did a quick Q&A session with Game Director Steven ter Heide, who explains several features of the new patch.

That's messed up. There should be an option to mute yourself. Also since this update my game has crashed once and I am no longer able to advance to the next round: the execution screen just sits there not advancing..
 
The colorblind option is extremely nice for people like me. I'm always worried about being able to see red/green in multiplayer games.
 
Now i just need an option to alway be either ISA or a Helgan. I hate it when a match is over and i get to play as the other faction, with no visual cues whatsoever... So after killing the ISA for 30min and shooting at everything that blinks in blue light i have to switch to killing Helgast >:(

I'm to old for this, my brain takes to long to adapt to such a change...

Would really like to always play as either side, just make it a visual kind of thing, somehow.

Also, how can I have the chat come through my controller..can't find the option anywhere.
Click to expand...

Since the controller has no mic i guess you have to use the headphone/mic combo for it to work...but i have not tested this.
 
What are the new Remote Play controls configurations? I'd try it myself but it's the dead of night.

I have all 3 also, and I find KZ to be my favorite as far as multiplayer goes.
 
About fucking time, though I don't know why it isn't on by default. That's a dumb move.

Yeah let's not have voice chat available for everyone on a game that relies in team work!

I'll definitely be back on this MP mostly because I wanna see if people will finally try and work together in Classic Warzone.
