Killzone 2 controls... Mediocre?

the controls are okay, but it should be the same as most other fps controls out there.

I have no issues with controls and I have pretty much played First Person Shooter games since Wolfenstein on my floppy diskette.

There is nothing wrong with Killzone 2 controls, it just doesn't support auto-aim exploits like other shooters do including COD4.

For the record, the controls had been adjusted even further for those people who had complains, not that it needed it but I still do as good as I did before. ;)

No problems here. Well except the sticky aiming issue they have in multiplayer, but they're fixing that.siLVURcross

I love the controls aswell. I even liked how they were before the patch.

I think they make it unique, I like the weighted feel and no auto aim... However, I wish the melee were faster and more like (dear god, am I about to say this?) Halo. Sensitivity can be adjusted.mjk_1

The controls are OK. I did have some trouble in the tank scene and the final scene.

I love the controls for this game... I love how so many people think they can just pick this game up and get every shot as a headshot because they were okay at Halo... The Aiming is not broken, I have no problem taken down all the crying nubs that think it is because I understand that this game is not Halo and its not Call of Duty...W1ckedGo0se

It's not a "fact" that there's something wrong with the controls, it's just that different people have had different experiences with them. Hell, I was used to them after a single play through of the demo and thought it felt great. I even use the default sensitivity. Some people like how they are, others don't, but that doesn't mean there's something wrong.

[QUOTE="Doolz2024"] some people just refuse to accept the fact that something IS wrong w/ the controls.RandolphScott

I am tired of people saying the controls need work, they are fine. I have no problems with them, honestly at first they seemed strange but after a few hours I got used to it. in fact i personally prefer em com paired 2 other fps controls

If you don't like the controls change them to alternate 2

I found the controls annoying, which made it hard.

For the original controls, I feel that it is like Call Of Duty 4. But thats just my opinion and I'm sure that many people would disagree.

Well, you can change them, but I also think the controls are a little impresise.

KZ2 controls were designed to be this way. It wasn't a matter of a lack of tuning, it was as designed. To complain about them now and say they should be more like COD4 or whatever is like someone saying the Virtua Fighter should play more like Tekken.beekayjay

Maybe if they had spent more money coding it efficiently or tone down post-processing effects for online, I'd actually play a 32 player game without dropping to -256 FPS. I'm pretty sure the priority of post-processing has something to do with the horrible, horrible aiming system.

The controls are tricky at first, but I got the hang of them straight away in the demo. I actually like the fact that they feel a bit different and that the game has a learning curve. I suppose it depends on the individual and some just don't like change.

My problem with the controls is either a person is crap because they try to actually aim, or they're good because they strafe ALL THE TIME...it's like I could praise the controlls just because I'm not bad with them, but that's ignoring the fact that essentially I'm playing this game like it's a side-scrolling shooter.

how about this? get USED TO IT, and play the game like a real freakin gamer! or complain and get your mother !@#$%& head blown OFF!

After putting in 80 hours online with Kz2, I recently put cod4 in and its controls feel dull now. Well actually that whole game feels dull and outdate seriously now after playing KZ2. So as far as I'm concerned the controls in KZ2 is right on. People just don't understand that you've got to practice and play the game to be good. Heck priro to release I played the demo about 50 times to get use to the controls, but one you understand them and understand the gameplay in KZ2 and its MP you can wreak some havoc and its purely awesome when you do, unlike other games.

[QUOTE="philip6k"][QUOTE="Doolz2024"] some work? they need to be completely redone, as they are very flawed imo. when aiming at a target becomes a hassle, you know something's wrong. oh, and input lag doesn't help things either.Doolz2024

yeah it doesnt help at all, well for me anyways, its way to fast.

Once I found out that I could have a control scheme that was almost identical to COD, my troubles were over. I don't understand the problems everyone's having with the controls in this game.

The only problem I have with the controls is it's really hard switching back to Killzone 2 after playing any other FPS like COD4 or Resistance 2. The more you push the stick over the faster the gun moves which is fine for singleplayer because it immerses you more and makes you feel like your actual aiming a gun. But, when it comes time for multiplayer it can be quite frustrating especially when trying to hit a moving target, it's damn near impossible to kill anyone while they're sprinting unlike COD4. I like the controls are merely the case of the developers opting for realism over responsive gameplay. I don't know about some of you but I play games for fun and enjoyment, not to be bombarded with realistic constraints.

I think the problem is less about the layout of the inputs for the controller, and more about aiming. Most of you here are spouting out how 1337 you are at this game and how you have these controls down like no one else, or how CoD4 aiming is outdated or whatever, but you're ignoring what is being said. I bought this game, played a little single player and then jumped into multiplayer. When it comes to shooting people online and that portion of the game, it plays fine. But I've recently gotten back into the single player game and I see the big design choice in the aiming that is making the game hard because I can't get my reticle onto the actual target itself.

It's not a matter of opinion, it's fact. There is a DELAY from when you move the right stick to aim and when your character actually aims. This makes it difficult to make little precise movements and adjustments when need be. Unlike CoD4 or whatever you want to compare this game to, KZ2 has a response lag between user input and actual action taken on screen. This isn't a game breaking thing, it just makes it harder to make little tiny adjustments while aiming. Sure, I'm sure some of you "know what" you're doing and have it down to a science, or the game is going realistic by having a DELAY between input and action. Is your character an idiot or something? Even if it was heavy, it shouldn't take a half second or whatever the lag is to move after making an input.

Don't get me wrong, I love this game. I'm not too bad at it online and I enjoy it. This is mostly a single player problem for me, because online I have no problems aiming and killing someone. Also, don't say change the sensitivity because that doesn't get rid of the lag.

I think they're fine. As long as you have 8 fingers and 2 thumbs the controls really shouldn't be that difficult.Floppy_Jim
