To be honest, neither crow or I kept track of our numerous deaths, so I'm interested to see which way the curve goes.

It does not matter, for you see, no matter who loses, you both win

It's a good write-up, if I do say so myself. Only problem is, the guy in that picture isn't Hooper. Yeah, Hooper is a generic looking ISA space marine guy and it's easy to confuse them, but he's not that generic looking ISA space marine guy in particular. So crow and I quickly went to task getting different screen grabs of Hooper for a new, more accurate, portrait. Unfortunately, they're both hilariously awkward and I love them both and can't decide on which one to keep in the post. Instead, we figured to let the thread decide. Which does everyone prefer:



Catching-flies-in-his-mouth Hooper?



or Sad-meme-face Hooper?

Sad meme face Hooper for sure. It's only appropriate for a game whose world is now so thoroughly, uh, hooped.

I like that Rico thinks he and Sev are still friends after what he did to Visari, it's cute and kind of sad in a way

I think it is, based on the blurb from the first post about it:

quote:

Basically, crow and I are going to play the game in about equal parts. Don't worry, the entire LP won't be co-op--we just wanted to show it off a bit in the beginning. For the most part, it'll be played straight through as single-player, though we're going to take turns on different levels.

I'm assuming how it'll work after the co-op vids are finished is that deaths while crow is playing count for him and likewise for blind sally.

"Fighting a losing battle" is pretty much Killzone's MO plot-wise. Personally I kinda like that, because the games so far haven't really ever had the characters give in to the futility of it all (well except for Sevchenko at the end of 2 but that's mostly because of Rico's actions). Our boys are soldiers, and so they keep fighting, even if they pretty much can't win the war against the higs at this point.

I am a very big fan of the Gun Of Blowing People Up +10. Also, the idea that they were gonna use it on Narville on live TV. Was there, like, a Mythbusters-style splatter shield just off camera that we didn't get to see?

Crow and I are talking about how Rico is the 'face' of the series, even though all the box arts feature random Helghast people staring angrily into the camera. I find this to be pretty humorous because the scale makes it look like they are titans from Attack on Titan.

Blind Sally posted:



It was mentioned before that Narville doesn't have the full picture of the battlefield as he didn't see Stahl's invasion plans for Earth. I've decided that I'm not entirely convinced. Having been a prisoner of Stahl's, I'm confident that Narville is perfectly aware of what the man is capable of. Not only that, but Narville has fought his way through his factories--he also knows exactly what Stahl is armed with. Furthermore, I'm confident that Narville believed Sev and Rico when they said Stahl was going to invade Earth. It's great that Sev is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to protect Earth, as the commanding officer, that means Narville is responsible for making that decision for every single ISA soldier under his command. It's not an easy decision and Narville isn't taking it lightly; you can see the indecision, the conflict, written all over his face.

This is like the best representation of someone thinking "fuckin god dammit poo poo piss harumph" ever.

Also, if not it's not that much hassle, can you guys give the Shakespeare treatment to Orlock and Stahl's dialogue at the end? :allears:

Well poo poo, you've figured out the secret. Killzone is actually a soap opera. Rico Ricardo doesn't get paid enough to take a real punch, even from an actor!

edit: It is a strange place to cut to another angle though. I assume the reason it doesn't look like he really got punched is because the mocap actor didn't want to actually hit the other guy (and/or wasn't allowed to cuz it might knock the mocap suit lightbulb things off of him).

Dude it's so the stuntman can react to the punch without getting him face broke, cut them some slack

Well yeah but they could have made it look slightly more real in editing. Maybe they did, and the source motion capture looked even faker! Maybe whoever did the mocap for Rico has never even felt the air of a punch going by!

It was a bold approach from Sevchenko and Rico at the end there. Narville can't very well have them court martialed for the death of Visari if everybody is dead, now can he? :smug:
