Just a friendly reminder to people who have the game already: remember to use spoiler tags if you talk about anything that could ruin it for anybody else. Thanks. :DTeufelhuhn

[QUOTE="tOtalPWNaAe"][QUOTE="mitu123"] That's it, I can game on for 7 hours straight, yeah, I have patience. If I can get a huge check for like 600 dollars or more, I can get a PS3 and Killzone 2 easily. mitu123

It's funny to think that Killzone 2's budget is half that of Too Humans.

with links, from 2007, showing it at 40 million. i'll find the others that show it went up 20 million in a year.. which is what i used to project the final tally.

remember some of these are rumors, but you posted a rumored estimate of TH costs ;) i have more coming.

5 million USD adverstising just for UK alone

so yeah, given the staff and ambitious nature of the project & advertising I wouldn't go around saying it's a put-down to games with similar bloated budgets. fact is KZ2 is one of the highest estimated budgets for a current gen title to date, which if anything just goes to show what it takes to bleed performance from the PS3 with all the development hurdles. not trying to belittle the achievements, just saying your analogy just doesn't quite do the job :)

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"][QUOTE="3picuri3"] 1) that budget was never confirmed by SK, just a rumor & estimate 2) KZ2 hit 60 million USD in January, 2008 so yeah. no :P. KZ2 is higher quality, but twice as much is a bit silly to say. in reality KZ2 probably ended up around 80 million itself including marketing, maybe more.3picuri3

[QUOTE="3picuri3"][QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"] Can I see a link for the $60 million figure? I've honestly never heard that before. Then again, I've heard all kinds of things about KZ2's budget, ranging from $20 mil to $100 mil.Floppy_Jim

think ya just owned yourself. she gave the original SK TH 80million rumor... learn to google, lmao.

i don't want to go digging up every bit there is on this, was just trying to show how silly it is to make an analogy like you did based on a rumored figure when the variations on rumors for KZ2 figures are just as ridiculous.

given the original budget for KZ2 (20M) and the articles floating around saying it had doubled in one year to 40M in 07, I don't think it's crazy to say it might be over 60M now, closer to 80M with global ad budget.

it's widely regarded as one of the most expensive titles we've seen this gen in any industry article.

Are you sure about that? I Googled "Too Human $80 million budget" and got plenty of results with no mention of this Surfer Girl character. Besides, it's just good to know that all the time and money on KZ2 seems to be paying off. Nearly all positive reviews and I'm sure it'll sell a few million.

Am I correct when I say Killzone 2 has look acceleration? Someone confirm this for me.musicalmac

whats look acceleration?

i've heard turn rates increase exponentially to a maximum when turning around, yes. is that what you meant?

kind of an odd design choice imho. it kind of creates a bit of input lag as well, similar to FC2, but i'm not sure if this is present in retail - certainly was in the demo.

I think so. It was in the demo, and the demo is pretty much the final build. Not a big fan of it, but I guess I'll get used to it.

killzone 2 just feels more realistic when you are playing. I went and played cod:waw after and i felt like i was on a rollercoaster with a gun attached. I am loving killzone 2 so far.. played the demo 20+ times...thetruespin

i totally agree. and so far this has been the main complaint from people - and i don't believe you can turn it off. the major issue with this is that it leads to input lag - which is the other thing people complain about, likely without realizing the two are correlated.

any input acceleration will slightly delay input response on screen as all input has to run through the acceleration code / algorithm. it isn't something a computer can do in real-time as a computer can't predict what you'll do.

i think they did it to try to make it feel more 'realistic' and tense, but i'm not sure it's all that realistic - as you outlined.

Don't think so. I'm not a fan of it either, but upping the sensitivity helped a little for me though. Most people call me crazy for that.killerfist
