Check out this, it's straight from KZ.Com and it says that therre have been 10,000 players over the last week and 10,000 players over the last night, that isn't a dead community to me, I easily found a game when I played just a few hours ago, and It was definetly a nice change of pace from all the arcade shooters I have been playing lately, People also forget about KZ2's epic campign and it's overall brilliance so I just wanted to share this with you all, thank you.

Epic campaign? The campaign sucked. Multiplayer seemed okay, but I only played a couple rounds and never really got into it.

I would have never assumed it was dead since it's supposed to be a pretty good game and has only been out for a year and a half. Good to have confirmation though.

Yeah, campaign was the best among the FPS's this gen. But I don't play KZ2 MP because I'm all sucked by TF2 :P

I was playing the new Transformers demo yesterday and I saw 5400 people online. More than the 1000 I used to see in Killzone 2 in November :D

Well that was the number of players I'd see in November when I just bought PS3. Killzone 2 was my second game and the online was already a graveyard.

It's still just a demo with little to no hype around it. Versus a game that was AAA.

Yeah but as long as there are enough people to get on an play than its fine with me. I play Killzone 2 every now and then and have no issues with finding a desired match.

The SP sucked. And the MP isnt enjoyable because of the terrible controls. Im surprised this game is still alive.

Saying the community is dead isnt fair. Saying its dying is fair. People in SW love to bring up Killzone 2 but how many actually play it?

Remember the first month when Killzone 2 came out? Look at it now. And how can there be 10,000 last week and 10,000 last night? Was last night national Killzone 2 night?

To be fair, last year even Perfect Dark Zero had an online comunity in the 1000´s (I think it was somewhere between 5000 and 8000) and that game was launched in 2005

It isn't dead at all, i guess what people are trying to say is it really doesn't stack up or compare with the numbers of say Halo 3, CSS, MW2.......

Otherway around for me.

I think singleplayer was great. And I got bored of multiplayer in 2 weeks.

Killzone 2 is a GOOD game. Online is still alive,too. Too many people use the RPG though.

Yeah, it is a little intense, but then again I am running around with just the knife:P My issue with the campaign is the story is so boring. Very rarely do I ignore a story, but i find myself doing that with KZ2 because I just don't care for it or any of the characters.

It's alive and kicking. Actually all this talk of Killzone 3 plus the 30 dollar price drop brought a lot of new players to the game too.

Some people think that a game is 'dead' just because it doesn't have Halo 3 numbers. :P It was never really 'dead'. I don't think anyone would have a problem getting into a game.

KZ2 had one of my favourite campaigns this gen. I enjoyed the MP as well. Problem is Im a trophy collector and those online honour rank trophies were just too time consuming for me and I eventually gave up MP. I imagine it would be much harder to get them now. If the current population is 10000, I'd have to come in the top 100 for the week T_T

I didn't like the game.Nothing wrong with that.And that 'spell it out for you' part is put there so that people won't start quoting me saying the game's campaign is intense and so on. Apparantly it didn't work and I'm not suprised.

Well it's just funny that you'd'correct' one guy's opinion with your own opinion, and then be defensive when I bring SW's alleged standard into the discussion. You are entitled to your own view on the game but so is Megaman5364....so...whatever. Just saying.

P.S. Is that your World of Warcraftcharacter on your blog? He looks weak. ;)

It's alive no doubt...but considering Sony have always tried to (at least the media have) hype Killzone as the Halo beater, and it's essentially failed in that aspect (sales wise) Not to mention when you compare it to this from Bungie's website # Unique Players (Last 24 Hours): # 528,717 10,000 looks absolutely awful.

I did try to get into a match 4-5 months ago and could not find a match I wanted, which was the type that cycles through all of the game types. I have had the itch to play some KZ2 online recently. With 10,000 players, I would think that Ibe able to find a match.

I loved kz2 single player. It felt more realistic, and satisfying to kill the helghast. As opposed to the godawful mw2 campaign which felt really arcadey, but of course this is my opinion.
