Not trying to be like chris Crocker, but what did Rico do in KZ2 that made everyone so P'oed? I played the game many times and I just don't get it.

Play Killzone 2 and you'll see why. Words cannot describe it.

Same way Alan Wake's personal agent Berry ruined awesome moments....

bad dialouge.

That one part where u go to save Templar with the blonde chick, Rico goes guns blazin. That was just silly now.

lol

Anyways his character bears no real significance whatsoever.

All he offers is trivial commentary, 'specially during the action.

because he's a one dimensional generic character...much like most of the characters in Killzone 2

the only characters with any redeemable quality is the helghast.

People hate rico because his character is all over the place to the point you wonder if he is simply insane.

One minute he is level headed, using sense and thinking straight, the next minute he goes ballistic and turns into a huge jerk out of no where and does some really stupid things.. especially in the end.

Rico's heart was in the right place. Sev's buddy was deadmeat anyway. Radec is ruthless.

He used pesticide on the foliage of helgan. That's why the world in the game looked so dead.

Well in killzone 2 he keeps ********* things up, like the end.

Though I have to wonder what commanding general would put a Rico like person on a team meant to capture someone, ALIVE!

In the first he is actually likable though.

He ruins everything. He kills more than one important characters that shouldn't have died, he's an idiot when he comes to combat, he screams and whines for you to revive him when he gets his fat ass shot down, and his dialogue is terrible.

well the overall story arc would have been good if rico wasnt directly resposible for the deaths of the two only interesting chars. and got pissed off when templar and the woman (forgot her name) were ax'd i mean come on your resposible for sevs friend being you-know-what'd then he goes all ape **** when it happens to his friend, he has got to be one of the most short sighted chars. in any decent game in recent memory

He's a jackass. He's clearly an idiot. YOu know what **** it. The entire cast is horrible. Worst group of heroes EVER. There like an even more douchy version of the Gears of War cast. The Gears of War cast you atleast laugh at for how bad they are. THe Killzone cast mostly makes you cringe with how attrocious of a group they are. Although I laughed my ass off at the ham sandwich line. That jackass should be allowed to live. The other idiots? kill em. Kill them all.

He has zero personality. He is always in your face. He is responsible for the ending. He should have died in the first.

Sev has that douchebag haircut. He loses points on just how he looks. and his boy got killed and instead of getting mad when Rico said suck it up(his boy just died and you say sucuk it up? why is HE STILL BREATHING?). Sev gets the award for being the vagina who listens to Rico.

Make no mistake about it, no member of Alpha Squad was useful. Send them into a bunch of Helghast and they get owned without getting one shot off. Instead, they spend their time in a long hit animation and fall down in the most ridiculous way possible.

Why does he get all the blame for Garza? Sev was too slow and Garza was going to die , no doubt. Then Natko after that. When Rico said f-it and sprung into action ..... it was glorious. (watch the video,lol) And while he made a mistake at the end , he did lose his best buddy Templar.

he's just a poorly written character with an even more terrible VA.

seriously, it added frustration to an already shallow campaign in KZ 2.

Yeah but at least Garza opened locked doors for me. :cry:

Watch this 2007 trailer to see how superior Rico's VA was back then. Why did thet change that?:(

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vd9E579AoU

Also Sev's haircut was more manly, Garza was that guy from new MoH game, and the guy that looks like the current Garza was named Killborn instead.
