Hmm. Obviously i can't judge without playing it but i can imagine that to be a real pain when you cant go prone either. I go prone A LOT in Call of Duty, and it's so effective.

Meh, i suppose it might stop a lot of people from running out into the action like a headless chicken.

This ain't COD though, its Killzone 2. You can't go Rambo-esque in this game like in COD. Its far more team based and you basically won't win games going it alone. With the way the maps and the game modes are, I can't see how going prone would be that beneficial in this game.

Anybody else having trouble getting online or is it just me? I click on Warzone and oit leaves me on the 'searching through universe' thing before eventually coming up with a timeout message. I don't think its my internet, I was on COD4 last night and it was fine. I'll be royally pissed off if multiplayer doesn't work...

Same thing was happening to me yesterday. Was eventually fixed later on at night though so just need to be patient I guess.

Aye, as soon as I went back to try again it worked. Sods law I guess. I'm just not patient enough to be fair.

Anyway, having had 2 matches, trying out pretty much all the round, I must say it's already fantastic. Teamwork is definitely a necessity to victory though. The first game I was in was with a bunch of people who obviously knew each other (probably a clan) and they were communicating with headsets like a proper team. We overwhelmed the opposition, who will have just been a bunch of randoms, and I managed to get about 17 kills in my first try (which is decent for me as I didn't make a kill in COD until about 10 games in ). I suppose pretty much everyone is on the same level for the time being so Kills will be up along with deaths.

I was most pleased in my second game when I managed to plant the C4 by completely outflanking the opposition. The potential for strategies and whatnot appear endless on this game, it certainly looks fantastic.

Anyway, I'm back off now for a couple hours play, I'll be up to that 100 points in no time (I got 34 points in my first game which suggests it wont be too hard to pick up rankings...)

Went online there really enjoying it. Some of the maps are bloody epic! And it will only be better when my mates join me, as fun as it is now- going solo- it'll will only improve when I can really talk to others and implement tactics etc.

I find it annoying you cant go prone, but online is very good. Although i got disconnected after 2 games. It is very team based like Gnels said!!

Unlocked the Shotgun and SMG and have to say disappointed by the shotgun. It takes about 3 hits to actually kill someone and that is up close as well. SMG has poor range so actually better off with assault rifle.

I feel that for some reason Killzone 2 does good for team matches not like other games where people don't care what's happening. There's a more sense of strategy for some reason.

I'm not sure how it takes you 3 hits to kill someone when I've been 1 shot killed more than once when I had full health.

If anything the shotgun is too overpowered.

But in some way isn't that a good thing? If you have the shotgun it makes you feel powerful if you can get 1 shot kills even though the reloading takes days.

They range from medium size to large maps, there aren't any small maps since it's a 32 player game.

Also about the shotgun thing, not it's not a good thing. If anything I've yet to see a game balance the shotguns, they always end up overpowered.

Resistance:FOM after patch = underpowered shotgun
Resistance 2 = Underpowered shotgun
Cod4 = IMO balanced shotgun

Only managed to get one game this morning but it was very laggy. Only racked up two kills as well.

The premise seems very good, but I don't think it'll hit it's stride until the server situation is sorted out.
