New Killzone 2 Gameplay Footage

Here is a new look at Killzone 2 from the PlayStation Day event held in London earlier this week. The 2008 gameplay footage shows off not only flying aircrafts and Helgast tanks, but new weapons such as the revolver. Also notice the lifelike animations, beautiful indoor lighting, and particle effects.

If you listen to the developer in the background, he mentions that what you see here is the first level in the game and is a training mission.

1 - This is different from the other trailers
This is a different trailer then the one on Gamersyde. This shows more of the rocket launcher and you can hear the developer talking a little bit in the background.

Crazy to think this is only the first level

i like the way this was played better too.

And did you guys notice what that guy had mentioned in his blog.. after he rocket launches the bridge and that ship flies thru the dust it leaves the spirals behind it like the turbines of and airplane..

It looks freaking awesome.. the details in this game are great... and i love that sharpness and great texture of things even at great distances.. no blur or fog at long distances.. makes it look very realistic

@ PharmD> WEBSENSE is the devil!!! They've blocked everything at my work with it except all the sports sites. I curse the programmers who wrote it... with poor aim and annoying gamerchildren in every room.

ON TOPIC>

Grafix looked sweet though I really wish I could find it at a higher rez... and I liked the cover system. I know it was the first level and that guy was proly playing on easy (and he still suckt) but I hope there's better AI cuz they seemed slightly unperceptive and sluggish.

1.10 - ok are people being uba biased?
i think this game looks awsome .yet when 1 of the posts said theres no colour he had 8 disagrees !be real it look gr8 but i kinda agree with the post. alot of games seem to have lost colour for realism! im not saying its a bad thing ,however if u actually watch it without rose tinted glasses its a valid point !cod4 was great graphics but hardly vibrant. maybe thats just how its going to be but i dont think people shud disagree unless they beleive it n trust 8 people cud see colour well me thinks there uba sensitive or deluded !

Not only does it looks amazing but the framerate looks damn smooth too. If they manage both of the above with no install then they deserve knighthoods. :)

Personally, if installing game data helps to reduce loading time per level, bring it on...

This game looks SICK!!! 1'st day buy (or midnight launch) for me!

3.1 - Indeed...
the way the light filters through the smoke after the blows up is impressive. The light is simply amazing. I noticed though, when the guy was shooting the body on the ground, it didn't move... what happened to physics on the bodies from the '07 demo? hmm...

if you shoot at the thick part of the torso,(back or hindquarters) the body isn't going to noticeably twitch.(unless it's in an animated cartoon, and this game is going for realism.

It looks cool, there were some animation glitches here and there, hopefully that will be solved as it was only pre-alpha code. Now this is just my opinion but the enemy AI doesn't look outstanding, I know its pre-alpha and the game was being played on easy but still I felt there AI wasn't upto the standards which I was expecting.

Guerrilla still has plenty of time to put some polish on it... I'm sure that the AI should be up to standard by the time this comes out...

4.2 - i think the devs would have to adjust the AI down to make it very easy when at an event like this.
with diff. people coming to try it out and having a limited time with the game, they won't get much out of the experience if all they did was die.

i did hear one of the devs comment on this at last years E3.

4.3 - AI was one of the major problems
of the original Killzone. The others being graphic glitches, bad physics and linear gameplay.

The first three are obviously BEING SORTED but my concerns are now about the linear gameplay.

Killzone 2 is likely to have a short SP due to the size of every level. That duration can be lengthen by opening up the levels with a more sand box approach. Then they'll last longer. Fingers crossed.

Otherwise, GG will be prepping KZ2 for online MP domination.

5.2 - I agree
Since it's a video game there has to be certain focus on making it hard..

But something that i do think about its that in war if there is a lot of soldiers the enemy it's not focused on you alone, it's focused on everyone.. i mean by the look of it, it would seem that everyone is fighting each other. And to a sense, that's pretty realistic.

I don't extremely like when you have teammates but the enemies only shoot at you and you are kinda fighting alone.. Now of course when you shoot someone they should shoot right back at you and i do think in that sense they game needs some tweaking.

But like they said in that last video, this was like a training level and i'm sure at times you're gonna be playing alone and all the attention will be on you. Now i may be wrong but i just wanted to drop this here for people to consider..

And this is all from a pre-Alpha build... I was almost starting to doubt this game, I was thinking it'd be the next Lair, great looking, but fatally flawed, but it's actually damn impressive.

graphically this game looks awesome an its a first day buy for me but... other than the graphics what is it gonna do to separate itself from the rest, an before you flame just think. when COD4 came out, it released with the PERKS that lets you set up different guns an abilities which was a little fresh an different way of thinking when playing. plus when i got my FIRST air strike an helicopter i just couldn't get enough of that. what will KZ2 have that will keep us going. for example after playing COD4, i bought rainbow 6 vegas 2 an I just cant get into it. its ok, an thats the problem, ITS JUST OK. but after looking at KZ2 i hope theres something other than graphics that keeps me coming back!!

You're comparing single player to multiplayer.
They haven't said anything about multiplayer yet and we haven't seen anything from the multiplayer portion the game.
If comparing at this point you would need to compare SP to SP and in that comparison KZ2 outshines COD4 graphically. I can't compare the gameplay until I've played it myself, but from the looks of it, it seems pretty intense.

I was JUST asking whats it gonna bring. plus i didnt compare MP to SP. your just jumping to your fanboy assumption i was. I was saying, I hope it brings something new an fresh to the table OTHER than graphics. as i was saying about vegas 2, it didnt bring anything new, basically saying its a new game thats not better than an older COD4. an I HOPE KZ2 brings something great to go along with those graphics because if it does i WILL be playing it for a long time. how could you get tried of looking at something like that!!

I know what your saying man but GG still hasn't said really anything about killzone 2 period what we know is there is going to be co op,the levels are atleast 1 gb in size,they added a sleek cover system and their continuing the story(which is awesome since killzone 1 had a good story), I promise you though if you decide to get a PS3 and this game from the looks of it you wont be disappointedly :)

Didn't GG come out a couple of months back and say that the MP will have vehicles.

I know this is nothing new, but still it is variety - which CoD4 never had.

14.5 - gnothe1 should reread (and rewrite) his initial post
because it didn't make any sense. he was talking about multi-player in COD? and comparing it to a single-player demo? and calling in airstrikes has been done before and on last gen systems. except for multi-player, COD4 single-player was terribly short and kinda average. it ran real smooth, but i was very let down by the level design.

the devs can't let the game play too difficult or people will spend the limited amount of time they get playing doing nothing but getting killed. the final product will have the AI ready to go i'm sure.

17 - Why do people keep mentioning AI on a pre apha
I never hear about AI on any other 360 games but everytime Killzone2 someone says oh the A.I needs improvement. It's a pre apha , just look at the gears2 gameplay and see how terrible the horde ai is they seem to be running into each other but it's a pre apha and we all know it will be fix. The games is still far away

Just standard operating procedure for Xbox fans and media trying to generate one or more 'trashing memes'. There are two out in the wild right now:

1. The 'it's grey' meme didn't gain any traction since Xbox fans obviously can't really complain about grey games after Gears of War

2. The 'bad ai' meme is the current Xbox cannidate

These things bound around on the Net so by 'review' there can be the standard two to three 'mark downs' sites can use to justify either trashing PS3 exclusives or at least keeping them out of the 9+/10 range.

Too many features
Not enough features
Motion control
Bad AI
Install time
...

The AI in the first killzone was very impressive and smart, many times I had a hard time getting past them because they were fooling me. Im pretty sure the final version will be improved dramaticlly and hopefully smarter then the first.

For a game thats been in development for 4 years is a game that will be worth every penny put into it.

As a PC gamer i must admit, this game looks very good. It has been looking good since i first saw it a few years back.

As for the PS3 and Xbox fanbabies, well, lets hope they grow up.
