Cillzone of Duty 3

Wow does Geurilla really think that ditching the KZ2 vets and appealing more to the COD noobs will sell Killzone 3? Updates on Cillzone of Duty 3

- First Blood

- Killstreaks (you get bonus points)

- Kill pop ups, right in the middle of the screen in Giant letters/ numbers. Distracting your head shots

- Armor

- Extra health

- more????

Here's two low quality screen caps captured with a cellphone?

Text could be a bit smaller, but it honestly doesn't seem like a huge deal to me.

my heart tells me to deny it but slowly looking like a game similar to COD :( hope you can disable to popo ups and kill streaks are ok i guess i just hope they arnt rewarded, but more of just a heads up

Almost every FPS has first blood... it didn't get it from Call of Duty...

I believe the answer to that is, "Well duh!"

What do you mean extra health and armor? Videos of KZ3 I've been watching, everybody dies very fast. I don't mind the killstreaks.YuriSH

i heard of extra armor from a booster or class..........Medic revive players to 100% health

Welcome to console gaming, where popular trends >> substance.

None of this is new or belongs to COD. Did you just start playing FPS with COD? :?

Also, killstreaks giving you bonus points isn't bad at all, unless team actions don't give points.

Lol. For some reason people seem to think Halo and COD invented the FPS genre... Really, they were both a decade behind.

I believe 'first blood' came from Quake 2 or Unreal Tournament.

I hate this kill popup trend. Who started it?

lol @ other posters nitpicking TCs comment. Just because other games did it doesnt deny the validiy of TCs main point.

I am astounded that they would seriously add Killstreaks.Let us remember that the fundemental problem ofKillstreaks is that it makes people pay more attention to individual gameplay, playing at a safer pace and diminishes the "take one for the team" mentality as well. Overall it decreases the amount of teamwork. I also have no idea what first blood is doing in a killzone game. Gettingpoints for no reason wasnt the way it was done in KZ2.

Looks like Activison will have competition for their futuristic COD game.:P

call of duty 2 is still better balanced than all these crappy call of duty games.

You always got points for no reason, they just didn't show you with big letters in the middle of the screen. The killstreaks are point bonuses, probably to balance out the racking up of points with support classes, and first blood is in plenty of games heavy on teamwork.

Besides, there were plenty of people playing for themselves in KZ2 and not for the team.

Most people that play FPS games need to constantly feel like they are being rewarded and that they are doing well so they will have a good time even if they are complete garbage

And you probably get points for doing things that involve teamwork in this too. Trust me, kill bonuses will not ruin the teamwork in this game, and I'm sure the other classes get rewarded for similar things involving abilities. If people just want to run around and get kills, they will in every game they play. They're unavoidable.

Also, remember the medals and ribbons system? Many of those didn't reward teamwork. 8 kills with a pistol in 8 rounds isn't helping your team. I'm also pretty sure there was a one that gave you bonus points in bodycount. The number of bodycount only Radec Servers was ridiculous.

Call of Duty has regenerating health. So it's a Gears of War clone, obviously.Merex760

halo has regenerating health, so it's a quake 3 arena regeneration power-up rip off.

See call of duty 1# 2003 borrowed melee with weapons from halo combat evolved 2001.

that's useful feature.

that's what im talking about, dev's shouldnt be copying everything from another game even useless ****

it's ok to borrow useful features from another game, but straight up trying to be like another game is what is killing the industry.

matchmaking isnt useful so i dunno why dev's ripped that off halo .

melee with weapon is actually useful.

So basically what you are saying they are trying to combine COD and Halo. Not bad...

there wasnt anything wrong with killstreaks in COD4.

it wasnt until mw2 that killstreaks got ridiculous, and the inclusion of death streaks completely ****ed balance of the game up.

there''s no denying they are abandoning the methodical approach of Killzone 2, but these dudes know their stuff, it's going to be good, I'm hyped regardless.

whatever path Killzone 3 chooses to take, I will own the multiplayer hard regardless so I'm good.

Oh don't worry, this is a good thing, a change for the series should keep it fresh.

Im gonna be honest here, but I actually like the lil HUD pop ups in games :P It gives me a sense of accomplishment. I will admit that MW/MW2 abuse it, as you get sumthing poping up on ur screen every 2 seconds. I swear, there is an award for everything in that game. "ROOOOAAAARR!!! You died 3 times in a row! COOL!!!!" My favorite is in Resistance 2 how you can see the exp tick off everytime u shoot someone. I really like those markers. I understand that it kills the whole "realism" factor, but it makes it more fun for me, and to be honest, Fun > Realism IMO :PII_Seraphim_II

Killstreaks for points are fine... killstreaks that give you extra bonuses that keep you killing everything is a problem.

After saying that KZ3 looks so bland... it's just bad.

this is exactly why i made the post about not buying killzone 3 at launch until I hear decent feedbacks from the KZ community.

agreed, games are meant to be fun primarily... alot of time realism can kill the fun.

just imagine playing super mario if he only had a 1.5 foot vertical jump in order to be more realistic... would be a pretty crappy platformer.

although i dont find MW2 fun because of the camping/killstreaks... but the gunplay isnt half bad. Quake 2 was probably my favorite fps... and there wasnt anything remotely real about it.

No it just looks bland in the gameplay. Nothing special about it at all.

Game looks fone to me. Every issue I had with KZ2 (which I still loved) looks tobe fixed on KZ3.
