I bought the game when it came out, and it was ok for about an hour, after that I tried the multiplayer and didnt even play but like 3 matches.When I was done playing I realized that this game is WAY OVERRATED.The graphics are ok but not great by far, it takes way too many bullets to kill people in this game, and the multiplayer is the worse i have ever played, seriously I can't stand this game what so ever, does anybody else feel this way?

While i havent played K3 since my ps3 is busted atm, i did play k2, and liked its a lot, especially the multiplayer. The way the game modes change on the fly made me actually play modes other then just team deathmatch, and while compared to CoD it takes a few more shots to kill some one, i dont find it it that big of a difference. The big change is that CoD player are too used to pulling up the sights all the time, even in close range. Unless they changed alot from 2 to 3 that i dont know about i think u might just more practice to get better accustomed to the controls, if not, then maybe its not just for you.

No your not the only one. The single player is just fine, but the multiplayer is a complete waste of time for me. They changed things up way too much. If they wanted to noob up the motion for the COD crowd...fine just do that. Instead they had to totally noob up the Tactician class into something nearly worthless. Then they had to noob up the Marksman and Infiltrator classes so they could be basically undetectable. Even bots cant detect them anymore when they are fully ranked up. The result is lackluster online play that usually devolves into a spawn camp session. A lot of Killzone 2 vets abandoned KZ3 within a couple of weeks. As for the amount of bullets to kill, the players have armor. I am fine with this. It promotes gunfights instead of camp fests. It was far easier to put people down in KZ3 than KZ2, so count your blessing there.

Haven't played it, but I didn't like the looks of any of the videos I watched. Usually I can tell if I'll like a game or not that way...

Nope, you're not the only one, it's actually pretty bad and overrated, I didn't like Killzone 2 either, very good graphics but very poor gameplay and I always felt like shooting to plastilina, and the maps and everything it's always the same

No, you're not.

And when I say that, I don't mean I dislike the game as well, because I love the game. I just mean this is probably the 10,987th topic like this that's popped up on the PS3 boards.

Nearly all that said they hated it, only played for abit. Which means they don't even know the gameplay. And takes alot to kill someone, is because your aiming cod style lol. You actually got to aim some your self in KZ. Plus at certain levels you unlock extra armour, so you may have ran into some guys that run with that, I myself I run with extra ammo :)

Plus KZ is about Team play, you may have ended up in a bad room, where it was just a bunch of cod players, just wanting to do there own thing. But if in a good room its like magic when you get a good team going.

Also Operations is the best for just plain fun gameplay. Warzone, is for all out strategic gameplay, and Guerrilla warfare is just the dumbest game mode and the most waist of time.

But Killzone3 is far from being a bad mp experience. The controls are spot on and the best around. The only thing they should add is spawn on a squad leader. Other than that its a awesome experience online.

Did anyone else find the trophies on this game really easy? I got nearly all them in about a week but couldn't do the Co-Op ones. As for this game i found it great to start off with and then it went a bit down hill, some maps got spoiled due to being too open planned and i found myself dodging snipers more than anything. The single player was ok but nothing groundbreaking, seemed like a bit of a recycle of KZ2 with a different story.

There is no Spawn on Squad Leader :| ??? I really liked Spawn on Squad Leader and Spawn Grenades and they removed both? You can only spawn on your base then?

Um, did you play Killzone 2 before? You said it takes way too many bullets to kill someone?

Well, for me, Killzone 3 is inferior to its predecessor. The campaign in Killzone 2 was better because of the story and atmosphere. Killzone 3 tried to mix it up by throwing in different environments, but in doing so, it lost the great atmosphere that Killzone 2 had. Also, the ending of Killzone 2 provided such a great setup to an awesome story in Killzone 3 that could've gone in so many directions, but the story in Killzone 3 was disappointing. Also, people complained about unnecessary swearing in Killzone 2, but that's better than the cheesy lines you get in Killzone 3. Again, it just completely took away from the atmosphere. The menus in Killzone 3 were pretty bad as well, and the maps in Killzone 2 were better designed.

Guerilla Games should've just took Killzone 2, added an option for the lighter controls, and included the melee system, new weapons, etc. It didn't need a complete overhaul again.

I played the online multiplayer DEMO and I loved it - it really has the best graphics of any other online shooter around right now...and the gameplay was solid, the environment (or map - it was a snow map in the demo) really interested me (and, as most people know, maps and weapons are what make or break a shooter). This is from someone who hated the KZ2 single player. Mind you I haven't tried KZ3 single player, but leave the multiplayer alone...I loved it.

Cant say yet because i haven't played the retail version of it. But i did play the multiplayer & singleplayer demos and judging from that i must say that once you switched the controls around it's a whole lot better then killzone 2 (and killzone 2 is one of my all time faves) the controls are easier and the action & environment i've seen so far are better then 2.

im impressed so far, will buy next week.

I hated playing in Radec Academy. It's not so much I hate the map (I do though). It was more that it was the only map anyone wanted to play. That turned me off of KZ2 mp more than anything to me. I think playing the same map over and over is boring. I do think that KZ2 had better overall maps compared to KZ3. But on topic, I like KZ2 better. Hated 3's main story mode. I liked how 2's story felt and it was fun for me to play through. I also hated how in the cutscenes all the sound effects sounded really really low, but while playing it sounded awesome. I also hated how easy it was on the hardestly difficulty. I do like KZ3 mp though, even though I don't like all the changes, it's still fun. I also love playing with the sharpshooter online. I got pretty good with it, but haven't play with it or KZ since psn got shut off.

I should have though, I missed double xp weekend

Indeed, everyone wants to play this map. When there are 40 games, 8 are Radec Academy only while the rest have all the maps :P . Why did you let one map to turn you off from the multiplayer ?

It is really boring to play the same map all the time but I love this one because most of the times I finish first in kills.

Killzone is the most overrated PS3 franchise going. Terrible story, artistically ugly (not graphically) annoying characters, boring gameplay. That's just me but i've never liked this series. I thought 2 was okay, I would give it a 7/10 and the same for KZ3 but I would never give it the praise critics gave them.

You definitely aren't the only one. The game does nothing but collect dust in my house.

It had a totally lame and short campaign and I can't be bothered to play it online so yeah, it's a crapper in my book.

I for one really enjoy KZ3. I love how every MP game is compared to COD now, can't anything be different, if I wanted to play COD gamestyle then I would just play COD. I enjoy the art in KZ3, less campers, takes more then a bullet to kill someone , I love the different game modes and classes. I like to switch classes on the fly in Warzone and have the ability to change my play styledepending on my class. I like trying to work as a team and resupplying and healing my teamates. I like that KZ3 is dfferent and a nice change of pace of COD.

I will admit it takes some time to enjoy the MP and unlock things like armor and better guns. I didn't love it at first but kept at it and once I got the maps down and found the 3 classes I enjoy to play then I was loving the MP. 3 hours to me is not enough time to hate a game with this much passion.

I didn't like it much at all when I played the beta. I mean sure the singleplayer demo was pretty good but the multiplayer didn't click with me at all. And I loved KZ2's multiplayer, KZ3 just felt like it wasn't much a step forwards. I even say it was a bit of a step backwards and terms of class design, unlocks and how you now die in 2-4 bullets CoD style, it really turned me off.
