It resembles that ISA badge icon you can see in the background. Though I'm not sure if that's a specific badge that appears in any of the games. I don't recognize it from Killzone 2 or 3 multiplayer. Any Mercenary or Shadow Fall players recognize that logo from any badges?

Apparently it's just a double experience weekend promotion for Killzone: Shadow Fall's multiplayer. The V symbol apparently is Shadow Fall's Valor (multiplayer experience) symbol.

Carry on.

Yeah, most Killzone threads I encounter focus on wanking about how awesome Helghast are and how they should have a Helghast campaign instead.

Yeah, it makes more sense now.

Although, a Helghast campaign could potentially be fun. Imagine how difficult it would be playing a Killzone game without ever using cover! :v:

Well they could make you every helghast and make it some weird fps/rts thing like battalion wars where you swap to a live unit on death, preserving the proper feel of a helghast blind charge sans cover.

The Helghast goggles don't actually act as a red filter! It adds an informative overlay, but otherwise the Helghast soldiers can see just fine.

KZ3 spoilers:
In Killzone 3, there is a section where you don a Helghast uniform

I'm kind of impressed you a) had 400 Helghast assault rifle bullets and b) successfully spent like 200 of them assaulting that outpost at the end there.

So much for having the higher ground.

Uh, no comment.

A lot of this problem comes from the actual weapons available in Killzone 1. I swear! That's not just a lame excuse! The guns are far better in Killzone 2 and it shows. Or, well, it'll be proven when we get around to Killzone 2.

That said, we've got a bit of a bonus video in the works. crow is letting me edit this one, so, uh, expect something special.

I know. Killzone 1's multiplayer hasn't aged well.

In more exciting news, crow and I recorded the commentary for the first Killzone 2 video. It's gonna happen. I'm making this promise. We will have Killzone 2 in 2015. The end of Killzone 1 is in sight, and we will be free from its clutches with the next update.

Two things that are important to note here:

( 1 ) We're going to space.



( 2 ) When this game isn't looking incredibly drab, it can look really pretty.






chitoryu12

Something Awful forum's poster chitoryu12 joins us for the final chapter. chitoryu12 has the distinction among our guests of having actually played a Killzone game. Not Killzone 1, mind you, but most of the later games. You see, no one has played Killzone 1
:negative:

It's all downhill from here--or, uphill, I should say--as the end of the game is in sight. chitoryu12 has hinted at the possibility of doing a Killzone: Shadow Fall LP of their own at some point. If that's something you'd still be interested in after watching this game, then you know who to bother. No pressure.



Thanks, Rico. Thanks.


Killzone 1 summarized in a single screenshot:


RUN HELGOON! BE FREE!!!


nine-gear crow posted:

Here's something worth pointing out for the sake of the LP. Blind Sally says that this is a "25% run" because we're not going four separate runthroughs of the game with Templar, Rico, Luger, and Hakha each. Well, the PS3 HD Remaster of Killzone 1 does indeed have four separate trophies for completing the game using each character all the way through from the point where you get them onward.

Templar's trophy is Rapid Reaction Force (Chapters 1-11).

Luger's trophy is Shadow Marshal (Chapters 3-11).

Rico's trophy is ISA Regulator (Chapters 4-11).

And Hakha's trophy is Field Operative (Chapters 5-11).

They're all bronze, by the way, which is pretty disappointing, since given the effort you need to put into getting them you'd at least think they'd be silver or gold-level ones, no?
