Rumor: Killzone 2 Levels Are To Take 50 Minutes

Unknown NeoGaf Member: saw Playr this morning too. It's basically the new version of Gamer TV. Made by the same people with the same format but with a different, less nasally, presenter. Airs in the UK on Bravo at the weekend (a satellite/cable channel).

Well I hope this game is atleast 12 hours long on normal difficulty settings. The action looks really intense. Just imagine, all this intense action spanning across 12-15 hours of gameplay. :D
By the looks of it the game is set to deliver on the intense hype its getting.

Well this isn't really news. 45/50 mins is irrelevant without knowing how many levels will be in the game. I hope they also go for a more story oriented shooter. I want a really nice story in it. If the game is only 8hrs long i wouldn't mind as long as the story is very well done. Plus there is always multiplayer to get into.

With all the COD4 copying i hope they have some original stuff left to show. And whats the deal on the beta

The only thing they copied is the scope on the main gun.

As for the color and atmosphere, that's how the helghan world is MEANT to look. If you played killzone 1 and saw the introduction and the story of game you'll know what I mean

No, they didn't copy COD4 with the reflex sight on the main ISA rifle (M82-G in anyone is interested)it is just a standard reflex sight with very minor futuristic design twists (like all the other weapons in Killzone). Besides, how can they copy COD4 when they were both shown to the public at the same event?

dude why tha hell do you always start fud... did you even play killzone1???

there were some guns that you could bring up to your face like cod4.

So stop with your stupid comments please.. tell me what else did they copy??? cause the lean and peak it's original.. the atmosphere it's unique, the design with the lighting it's unique and i'm guessing since they haven't mention nothing about the multiplayer there will be some unique things as well... so what tha hell is your problem again??

Unless you're talking about shooting other people cause if that's the case then yes killzone it's copying that but not from cod4.. you used to make smart comments as of lately you just say stupid things trying to look like you know what you're talking about when you don't..

1.8 - The gameplay?
But I don't see how they copied call of duty's gameplay. Last I remember, you shoot and kill people in ANY fps game. Unless I'm missing something, that IS the gameplay.

That's not an attack on ya sonarus. But it would be nice if you could explain that a bit. Who knows, ya might educate me

The running imo is straight out of COD4 and i didn't play the first KZ because i heard it was crap.

Personally i'm not a big fan of COD4. Once again my comparisons aren't based on visuals. Imo the shooting is just highly reminiscent of COD4. Cover based shooting is original but in almost 90% of the vids, no one is doing this. They need to increase the difficulty to make it more tactical and force more ppl to take cover.

My point basically is i expect a little bit more sci fi form a sci fi game and i am hoping for more original weapons and gameplay. Shooter market is quite crowded and from what i can tell minus the lean and peak gameplay, it plays exactly like COD4. Whether or not they copied isn't my problem all i know is most of the stuff in this game you can do in COD4.

The running is from COD4? Are you kidding me? I don't play many FPS's, but I know there is running in some form in Half Life 2, Battlefield 2142, and Resistance to name a few.

They freakin' have lightening shooting AA guns, the whole race wear a life support sytem on their backs, its set on ANOTHER PLANET. You get there via SPACE SHIP! Ok so MOST of the guns on the FIRST LEVEL dont shoot lasers but how much scifi do you want?

1.17 - KZ2 can't win for losing
Graphics are spot on people say "well it's not really impressive anymore"
Sony spends major $$$ to make a quality game and people say "well that's not good because devs have to spend high dollars to get what you can do on 360 with the Unreal Engine"
The game is flat out amazing looking and it's hard to say it isn't so people say "I want to see the gameplay improved" or "the AI looks horrible"
I've never seen a game scrutinized like KZ2.

Because it's been in production for so long. There's going to be 2 RFOM's out before KZ2 hits the streets. When you hype something you have to deliver.

3 - This really gives no indication of the game's length
But look at Halo 3, Gears of War and Call of Duty 4 -

All had very short campaigns, but are some of the top played and highest rated games of this generation.

By the way...30 day ban lifted, I'm baaaacccckk

I agree with you on Call of Duty 4 and Gears but not on Halo3, Halo3 campaign was lame. I purchased Legendary edition of Halo3 on day one. I followed every bits and pieces of information for 1.5 years and when I finally got my hands on it, I was seriously disappointed.

The story for CoD was excellent for a military FPS. I never finished Halo or GeOW (because I dont have a 360 so I can only play it at my cousins)

but Halo and GeOW was nice.

I think that KZ2 will have an excellent story. From what I have heard, that is the best part of the first game.

but Killzone 2 is going on a 50GB Blu-Ray disc so this must mean more campaign gameplay....

3.4 - @ 50gb = more gameplay
50gb =/= more gameplay. It's equal to more space.

I could put tetris on a 1tb drive and it would still be just tetris.

4 - 45-50 minutes per level huh
Sounds like my kind of game. Assuming it has a fair amount of levels of course.

If it's the same number of levels as Killzone 1 then I'm sold

Actually, I was sold on this game LONG ago.

the minute I finished the first one (ParkHelL forever). It's funny to hear people come in here and bash and speak of something they know absolutely not.

KILLZONE 1 was ahead of its time in my eyes and KILLZONE II is one of three reasons I bought the PS3 on 11|16|2006 in the first place.

8 - Question is:
How many levels? There could 7 levels and the game would be less than 6 hours long. Resistance 2 was a perfect length FPS, that game to me was as fun as playing Halo back on the day on the PC. Good times

EDIT: Resistance 1 :)

10 - Killzone 1 was really long
So I'm sure part 2 will be a good length as well. Hopefully the multiplayer is just as impressive as the campaign mode. 32 players would be insane!

IF each level is 2 gb, then they can fit up to at least 25 levels. Just the levels. And then 40-50 min per level....that'd at least 20-25 hours of single player game play. But with all the hi-def things, I'm thinking it'd be around 13-16 levels. I thought Crysis was fairly decent in its length of gameplay. KZ2 should be, if not longer, around the length of Crysis.

11.1 - No room
No room for engine or multiplayer or player models or reusable assets. If you want a bunch of animation data for non-existant models and a file of what would be a pretty map if it were being rendered, have a great time with ur 25 levels.

2GB for each level, with a 50GB blu-ray disk available to them.....will be a long game indeed...

@Silellak

Considering that Sony spent alot of money getting this game made, and has been in development since....2005 I think, so a long game may be possible.

Assuming they use it all.

Remember, just because they HAVE the space on the disc, doesn't mean time/money will last long enough to finish it.

It would be awesome if they broke from the curse of this generation and release a game that's longer than 10 hours, though.

Consider how much money M$ spent on halo 2, and look at how long that game was.

money =/= length =/= quality. money = more people getting paid more
