Killzone dev reacts to **** fanboy comment

[QUOTE="najentus"][QUOTE="Burnsmiesta"][QUOTE="najentus"]

[QUOTE="Burnsmiesta"]I feel sorry for the guy, he reacted to the comment when he should have maintained his professionalism. However it must be hard to bite your lip and ignore these idiots. Just hope this doesn't blow up in his face.Burnsmiesta

Point to me the unprofessionalism in his posts. Most people here are talking without reading apparently.

So replying with a well written well thought out post is unprofessional?

His anger came through in his post. Why did he even have to come down to the fanboys level by acknowledging him?
He needs to suck it up, accept this will always happen and get to the business of making a quality title.

Did you happen to notice the forum in which this was going on?

I'll tell ya, it was the "ask the dev thread." That's why he was responding to all the posts, not just the deuche.

Are you implying that everyone on the playstation forum is a fanboy?Burnsmiesta

Huh? Where did you get that from?

[QUOTE="saolin323"]Killzone 2 is IMO definatly one of the worst looking shooters coming, the textures are HORRIBLE and textures are non exostent at all in most things, the new Aliens shooter, Project offset, Far Cry 2, Crysis puts those graphics to last last gen shamesaolin323

And Fable 2 puts all of those games to shame as well,right? :roll:

Yes, Fable 2 is 100x bigger in levels than KZ2, has 1000x more detial like grasses, trees, and not only flat empty grounds like Uncharted empty game, and vast cities etc

Killxzone 2 looks like a joke comparing IMO

Lol this guy is hilarious!

I think these fanboys should boycott the game. Let's see who'll be owning who.

ReverseCycology

Yeah, that would kill it, huh? NOT.

The majority of the KZ2 haters are people who would never buy it no matter how good it is. They are mostly made up of non-PS3 owners who would never play the game.

Don't get it twisted.

[QUOTE="3picuri3"]

wow - just lost respect for another dev. it's suprising how many of them act like children when their work is mildly threatened.. Jaffe, this idiot.

what ever happened to being an artist / professional and letting your work speak for yourself. words only drag most of em down as they never know how to pick em ;)

NathanDrake

I think his response was well written.

Let me ask you something. Let's say that you work on something for many years. Obviously you will be proud of what you have done so far and you feel confident that what you have done might be the best or one of the best products out there.

And than all of a sodden a guy comes around who porbably knows nothing about game development and starts to bash your product and starts to say that this other one is better......now how would you feel???

Wow that guy just owned every single fanboy agianst the PS3 and agianst any PS3 game.Wasdie

Not in the slightest, "owned" that fanboy, thats it.

Apart from texture detail I havn't heard many complaint. All the "anti Killzone" fanboys want really is it to prove it self gameplay wise.

Good graphics arn't really a suprise, it's one of the PS3's longest in dev game along with MGS4.

The only thing people don't get is that its being hyped just for looking great, after the first Killzone people just don't understand where else the hype is coming from.

Don't get me wrong, I hope its a good game that PS3 owners enjoy, but I personally think it should be in the "Prove it" catogory. I personally think Haze should be there too, cos I have never really played such a bad SP campain then in the TimeSplitter games. I have no doubt Haze will deliver in the multiplayer though.

Thats what PS3 fanboys don't get, I know most of your games will look friggin great, but they over hype games 1. because they look good and 2. because its exclusive, which is a trademark fanboy hype critiria, what about the gameplay.

Not saying lemmings don't do this either though.

And it's funny to say that there's no HYPE over Killzone 2. Since the FALSE E3 2005 trailer, there's a hype...and now, when everybody knows Killzone 2 WON'T get the level of E3 2005 trailer, so the devs say "THERE'S NO HYPE OVER KILLZONE 2, KILLZONE 2 WILL BE A GOOD GAME , AS MANY OTHERS". It's more comfortable to think like that and that is a way to answer the "failure" of the final product, (in comparison with E3 trailer, about being the defitinive game pf PS3).

Shame.

Honestly. I've started writing this reply three times, switching from angry flaming of the kind of mentality that draws people to wasting their lives making posts like the above, through into a factual listing of the many inaccuracies in your post (almost every word is, in fact, objectively incorrect). I've no idea what makes gamers turn so frigging nasty when Devs don't cater to their every whim and I'm not going to start guessing now - if you want to go be excited about Eight Days then be my guest. You're not commiting apostacy, nobody's going to want to tear you to pieces for it. You're really not going to hurt my feelings.

But really - how you can turn 'looks better than any other PS3 game in development (even Killzone 2!)' into Killzone 2 being a failure beggars belief. Is there only allowed to be one good game at once? When it is news that a game looks better than Killzone 2, I'd say that suggests that Killzone 2 looks pretty damn good.

The E3 2005 trailer was NOT false. One confused Sony rep claimed it was a movie from the game engine - one guy blizted out of his mind on fatigue, jetlag and the madness that is E3. One guy not at all affiliated with Guerrilla Games - probably with a head full of 30 different titles. Everyone else named the E3 2005 video for what it was - a target render of what we thought would be possible on the PS3. Something we would be aiming for.

Then, during E3 2007, in front of the majority of the gaming journalist press we released a trailer of Pre-Alpha code running and demonstrated a PLAYABLE Killzone 2 that stunned the industry. If you know me at all from watching me answer questions you know that I'm not prone to hyperbole in the slightest. The quotes coming from those sessions included 'jaw dropping', 'amazing', 'stunning' and 'a complete vindication'. Notwithstanding that, you decide that the E3 2007 sessions failed - a completely reversed opinion from just about everyone who saw it running or played it. What you say 'everybody' knows is something that almost nobody believes.

The truth is that NOBODY is releasing the definitive game of the PS3 only 3 years into it's lifespan. And no sane person would even try to release 'the definitive game' - because who knows what will make the definitive game definitive? The only shame here are whatever feelings made you decide to come in and post things that even you must know are untrue, simply in an attempt to score points and / or upset people.

Always-Honest

Obviously he did hurt your feelings. That trailer did not "Stun the industry", but clearly had a profound effect on you. Also they did claim that that video was done in Engine. Last thing how stupid were those flying assault platforms, you could take a guy out with a rock on one of those things.

Don't get it twisted.

And the majority of people hyping KZ2 are cows who worship at the altar of Sony. Instead of taking a wait and see approach (especially based on KZ) cows are going nutz. I will definitely purchase this game if it lives up to 50% of the hype. I will reserve judgement though, until it is released.

cba to read it,give me the main point plz

to summarize (others correct me if i'm wrong), someone over teh internetz said 8 days looks better than Killzone2 and KZ2 developers were very upset about it.

You mean like when cows boycotted Capcom over DMC4? No..wait, they had more reason to boycott than what you're suggesting. You're honestly saying people should boycott Killzone 2 because a dev responded to a fanboy? Really? ReverseCycology, you have no logic at all. You and saolin, my Lord.

lol I know, Usden criticises other fanboys for not using logic and then comes out with stuff like this himself! Usden, you're not one to talk, your one of the biggest fanboys around! lol

Please explain to me in words, why the DMC4 Devs should be boycotted because they went multiplat? Is it un-ethical to deal with MS as they are secretly drug-dealers lol.

I have perfectly fine logic. I just think cows had more of a reason to boycott because Capcom spouted "zomg exclusive" until days before Euro launch.

Which dev and/or Sony rep claimed that the trailer was done in engine post E3?

And need I remind people that the Halo teaser was done "in engine?"

He just demonstrated unprofessionalism in my opinion.stephant_6

It's unprofessional to defend your game and state facts?

The E3 2005 trailer was NOT false. One confused Sony rep claimed it was a movie from the game engine - one guy blizted out of his mind on fatigue, jetlag and the madness that is E3. Always-Honest

What makes you so sure they did not say that deliberately? Your really giving them the benefit of the doubt on this one. Especially given SONY's recent history. Weren't they also paying off Ubisoft at that same E3 to pretend Assassain's Creed was exclusive? Face it they lied and they did it because what they had/have to offer is just no where near what they promised.

The topic creator's post is just a quote of the Killzone dev post. Nothing in that post is his own opinion, so stop saying "you". Jeez, i've lost track of the number of people making this mistake..
