Thats still going to take a few hours for me:(. Don't know why my PS3 is so slow to download, my PC, laptops and 360 can do 2gb in about 15 mins.

The other day it took my PS3 8hrs to download 1gb of data.

I think it all depends on how many peoples downloading the file at same time?

Yeah think so. It's moving along ok now. The LBP2 and ME2 demos took hours to get.

Played a few bot levels with the Move as the servers are down, its ok but my room is too small it keeps going off line and im more controlling a on screen crosshair than aiming if you get what i mean.

Think ill chance the main game with the move but not online im too slow with it. Not that im much better with the controller

Tried downloading it there. Took two hours and when it was finally downloaded it said the data was corrupt and couldn't install. :mad:

The medics have got silenced burst versions of the main assault rifles is a good touch it'll make them less of a front line fighter.

I started downloading it this afternoon while playing LBP2 and forgot about it, went back earlier thinking it would be done, but the fecking thing just stopped and now is stuck at 91%.

Korvanica

Headshot

Im not to keen on it, just dont particularly like the pace of the game and the controller layout

Is there away to reduce the sensitivity of the controller ?

45 mins on 20Mb UPC here. Very good by PSN standards but not like getting a 1Gb demo off XBL in under 10 mins. PSN needs more bandwidth for download hosting.

Really liking this though, a nice change from the typical fast paced CoD game style.

Korvanica

one thing i noticed is that you seem to be able to run forever when you're an infiltrator ..

theres kinda like a "leg it upto people... shotgun in the face..." type of thing going on...

WolfForager

I is confused as to what thread to post in. This one or the KZ3 Megathead in "Games", this new fangled forum structure is annoying me....

Gonna be playing this all night...

you can change the controller layout to a COD set up and change the sensitivity of the movement in options.

FlawedGenius

I cant get into a game. I click multiplayer and it just forever loads, when it loads itl ask for e region, click Europe and then it just loads for ages again.:(

FlawedGenius

Tallon

Played this until 9am this morning

I really like it, not as fluid as most FPS bur it's an outstanding game

I has the headset on last night and had to tell people how to unlock their secondary weapons etc cause they didn't have a clue

its under start, wireless controller, advanced setup, and you can change the x and y axis sensitivity, was the first thing i went looking for, and WHHHYYY cant you put the crouch funtion on the R3 stick?! CoD has the best setup for fps games by far on a pad.

Kersmash

Im getting an Error code 20000 when I try to play online. When you choose your region it wont load and then the error message comes up telling me I need to sign in or something. Anyone know whats up? I played it offline and it was a hell of a lotta fun.

mystic86

can anyone tell me how to capture "tactical spawn areas" when u play as a tactician...please

Alright.

IS it just me, or is Killzone just a bit...clunky? Or bulky or heavy or whatever.
Don't get me wrong, the beta is great (when i can connect) but I can never really feel like the movements are natural or fluid when I'm playing.

Anyone else have this problem?

It's supposed to be that way. Personally I prefer it. Maybe you'll get used to it?

I wouldn't say that the movements are not natural or fluid - I don't think you can twirl 180 degrees easily holding a massive SMG or assault rifle. The developers were aiming for a more 'realistic' feel with the movement and feel of the weapons in these games, which I think makes for a more tactical shooter instead of a 'twitch' shooter like some other games.

Grumpypants

It is always amazing in games when a 15 stone man with full body armour and a massive gun can run at top speed and jump and spin with the ease of a ballerina.

Killzone is different its a heavy game, similar to gears of war.

Yeah, I know what you mean:D Haven't been able to connect for a while but I finally got into a game today and started playing operations I love the new cutscenes where you get to see yourself doin' something cool:p

No, I kept getting stuck at the 'Connecting' screen for the last two days, but i managed to get some games today, maybe it's just a matter of luck.:(

Try praying, it worked for me:p
