Did a search and couldn't find a thread for it, so here it is.

And the Open MP Beta is out. And by playing the Beta, you'll be entered to win one of 1000 Killzone 3 Heightest Limited Editions that come with a model helmet...it's essentially Halo 3 Legendary Edition.
 
I'm really enjoying the Beta so far. One of the major issues I had with the 2nd game was the really sluggish controls, which they seemed to have fixed with KZ3. I like the "heavy" feeling, but I think it was over the top with KZ2 and I think they've hit a sweet spot now.

I have my sensitivity set to 50% and my control scheme set to "Alternative" which is CoD style I guess.

What classes are you guys using? I'm liking the Medic right now, and also the Sniper class.
 
Hopefully KZ3 has some sort of innovation because I didnt see anything at all innovative about KZ2. Yes I own the game. But I should also point out I have only played the campaign. I played the multiplayer 1 time while testing a headset. I heard KZ3 has co-op but only split screen. I should check out this beta for sure. Hopefully its for everyone and not a specific region.
 
KZ3 is amazing. I love it. All the other KZ were dark screens with 2 red glowing eyes. This one is MUCH better. The guns are epic, the maps are sick.. this is an amazing game.

I think you mean 60, not 1000.
 
Anyone tried this with move/nav controller yet? I didn't particularly like it... the aiming is decent, but it's really hard to get used to.
 
I might try it. I was hoping the feel of the game changed from KZ2 but it seems to be the same old thing. It does look purty though.
 
The servers in North America are full, so I had to play in the Japanese ones.

That is good news. As I stated above, I never found anything at all innovative with KZ2. Looking forward to KZ3 and need to try the demo / beta.
 
Absolutely hate the Beta, the input lag and axis acceleration is still there, they just removed the heavy feeling, problem is, the game is really fast paced, a lot faster than 2. Guns are neat, although didn't change much compared to 2 (except that they almost all have red dots and scopes on them meh). For me they ruined it, the unlock and point system ala CoD annoys me and the lack of custom lobbies kills it entirely. Will rent it for the campaign mode, but definitely won't buy it.

Graphics and sound are of course some of the best on a console ever, but that's it.

This time they made a cross between K2 and Modern Warfare, not really innovative either isn't it?

None of the Killzone beta's have ever had customer lobbies, doesn't mean its not going to be in the final version.

Personally I love this Beta, however the closed beta had a bigger selection of maps, some of which are very, very, very nice.

Been having fun with the open beta, I'll probably buy it.

I always liked the Helghast character designs, I love playing as them. Death to the ISA!!!

They announced this a couple of weeks back that it will have no lobbies, just like they did with SOCOM 4.
 
So far the only issue I have with the Beta is that sometimes people disappear. I've actually been killed by someone I couldn't see until AFTER I was dead.

That's not a glitch, one of the (stupid) skills/weapons for the infiltrator(?) class is the ability to go invisible for a short period of time. It annoys the hell out of me. :mad:

Yeah they reappear when they move or there's another class with an ability that shows where enemies are. Invisibility is awesome for sniping, unfortunately for corner camping too.

Does anyone find this game too blurry? I can play COD or CS for rediculous hours but after about an hour or even 30 minutes sometimes I start to feel a bit nauseous. I have been looking in the setting but have not found anything.

Less blur and more control schemes then it is a buy for me. I seriously loved KZ2 (blurry too but it did not bother me as much at the time) so I am hoping they can do something about it for this one.
 
It's so blurry because of the fast pacing and all the lighting effects and also motion blur on weapons etc. K2 actually had the same amount of blur, but it doesn't matter because it's slower.

Close, Marksman class has the cloaking ability.


But Infiltrator is the only thing in this game that pisses me off. So sick of "teammates" walking right up to me and killing me. How the hell am I supposed to figure out that the dude with the green name over his head is actually a frickin enemy?


Other than that, this game is awesome. Really looking forward to the full game.

When you aim at them, the name and your crosshair turn red.

Not to mention a 'friendly' running in the wrong direction or straight at you is suspicious. ;) That's the whole point of that class, loved it in KZ2 too. 👍
 
Played the beta with the bots to try out the move controller.

It's not bad, needs some time to get used but headshots are really rewarding with the move.

A bit more options for the move would be welcome though, like in Mag.

I already have my Helgast edition on preorder.
Just hope the Helgast Helmet is 1:1.
I was pissed with the CE of dead space 2. Replica gun 1:3!!

That's the one! 👍 and the fake teammate thing really annoys me too.

Me and Speedster502 should be playing this for bit later on, if anybody feels like joining us just send me a friend request (Tommi_2000) and i'll invite you into the game.

Servers are down.

I once had a laugh I was playing warzone and the objective was to capture the bases and I saw 2 guys with the same name so I figured the one at the enemy held base was a fake.
