LOL, apparently the GG guys were shitting their pants backstage when the dude playing missed three shots while hanging on the rope, if he missed one more time the demo would've crashed because they didn't have a death scripted in yet.

Heh. I don't think I've ever seen a major Conference demo full-on crash before...

That's terrifying, I don't know why they even bother to be honest. Just have a clearly gameplay video pre-recorded and a guy standing in the corner acting like he's playing. -_-

As long as it's gameplay and not some finicking rendered trickery then I couldn't care less if it's being played live or not.

No, stahp it with the Crysis 3 already. I've seen it on a high-end PC. It's not as "pretty" as next-gen. Justify your new gaming PC elsewhere please.

I know we as gamers don't like it, but this is the reason why publishers sometimes play recordings of demos at trade shows.

LOL where did you hear that? It really would have been funny.

Is this a bullshot? I dont believe this is render real time on the PS4 with that IQ.

Some of the comments surrounding the live Killzone demo on GAF just absolutely stun me. Particularly from this thread. For example:

That was the dullest looking playthrough in the history of my eyeballs.

Luckily Nintendo specializes in making "games", you know, things you actually play, not guided tours of fake little cities.

i don't see anything on this that would be impossible on the Wii U. can't load all of those textures to RAM or something? i don't believe it.

It looked like a generic shooter with the same old boring gameplay and it looked very scripted. Yes, the graphics look great, but it was very boring. Same shit, new coat.

I saw that as a BS tech demo myself. The player took control for maybe a minute of that entire demo, and those were the dullest parts.

I actually thought it looked really cool with all the colors and shiny, and then I saw Killzone gameplay and was reminded how offputting the series is. Not to mention the part I liked, the color, was destroyed during the demo.

I dont really see where the real creative genius is in that gif anyways. To imagine what you see in it, all youd need is to take some actual video footage of a helicopter flying above a city, then rebuild something similar but add some futuristic looking modifications to some of the buildings. Other than the brute hours and manpower to finish it, it is completely without creative genius. These people should be well beyond this level of creative talent since they are obviously college graduates and somewhat high up in their field. I find what is in that gif to be fairly bland and even predictable. Im not being shown anything i havent seen before, or anything my imagination couldnt come up with ten times more vividly on its own. Basically its nothing. I keep hearing about how impressive next gen is going to be but how come no one ever cares about better games, or better music, or better creative brilliance? All you hear about are better graphics and it seems like by better graphics everyone just means more polygons and some slightly more sophisticated lighting. Where are the better character designs? Better stories? Better more original worlds? Technology and RAM you can buy, i guess creative genius you cant.

^ That one is a gem lol.

Seriously, though - I don't understand this mentality.
 
While allready really impressed with the graphics and the world they've created, i also REALLY hope they will return to Helgan for some real gritty, dark, colourless environments.

At the check point I kinda got the feeling they were playing as a Helghast saboteur (posing as an ISA soldier). That would have been cool.

The stuff looked incredible. When the player jumped and grabbed onto the helicopter rope, I thought it was some kinda fmw trick. We need Uncharted and God of War at this fidelity.

Hah... I was thinking the exact same thing ... especially when he acted all nervous and stood at the back of the check point. I was thinking he was like "Aww shit... busted. Time to kill someone...."


I don't understand how someone can watch this knowing it's early alpha and not be fucking hyped as hell to play an ENTIRE GAME of this and likely much more insane/amazing shit going on. And to the people wishing it wasn't super shiny Veckta.. you can bet good money on going across the wall as a Shadow Marshall and i'm sure the Helgan side of the wall is suitably dark orange. Gonna be tits!

Absolutely nothing about this screams bullshot to me.

It is bullshot. Console with that spec simply couldn't run something like this above 1080p.


Frankly 1080p may be as well 1280x1080 like Gran Turismo 5 used to be. From video i saw already aliasing shimering which should be visible with 1080p and AA downscaled to 720p stream.

To me looks like native res is somewhere between 1280x720p-1600x900p. My opinion 1600x900 i used it daily for gaming at that amount of aliasing (even with AA) looks like 900p.

Now we need to wait and see what will be final resolution. I hope it will be true 1080p

I really really hope that it will release along side the PS4 on launch. I know they said "launch game!", but we know how that has played out before..

the only 1080P is 1920x1080P. so i think its safe to assume its that.

I'm very disappointed with what they showed us. Were the graphics incredible? YES! But the gameplay was just too shallow, if it's anything like what they showed us I'll be passing it.

This is exactly why i'm hyped, and i'm betting the game will be much more stealthy on the helghan side of the wall. Especially since this isn't a numbered sequel I expect some new gameplay in the full game. I guess this is just the opening level setting things up.

So explain me one thing if you can, how the hell is Vekta divided between Helgan and Humans? What happen to the story?

Going of the voice-over in the trailer the Vektans gave the Helghan refugees space on Vekta as an apology for nuking their planet.

I love the Berlin wall idea, it's an incredible and innovative setting. First time I'm actually excited by the story of Killzone.

Game looks insane.

Hahaha...sea of salt here.
 
when he gets off the transport doesnt the other soldier say "good to have you back home on planet" or something? maybe there are some missions on helghan before? looking for something possibly?

Nope. 1080p is every resolution with vertical 1080 pixel lines.


1920x1080p is so called full hd but it is not official standard like HD (which is 1280x720p).

As i said earlier GT5 was using 1080p. Hell even killzone 2 had 1080p mode and run 950x1080p

1080p is not a standard it is just name to say something about vertical pixel ratio.

Why waste all that power on such a generic title as another (mediocre) killzone sequel?

Looks great but the gameplay could have been done on ps2

Seriously, there is NOTHING new from a gameplay perspective. Where is the new AI? Dynamic gameplay?

and don't bring up the rope-sequence, it is just an interactive scripted cutscene.

Playable demo my arse.

I the reek of Aliens Colonial Marines demo is still too near to buy into this one.

Surely to prove it wasn't a demo, wouldn't the guy playing just say... "to prove it's a realtime demo' and then do something like hop around or quickly swivel the stick around?

God damn Bulldemos.

Ai is kinda hard to show in this short demo. But i agree that i'm hoping for great Ai improvements.And lots of destructibility

Please no 4k bullshit. 1080p is a great trade off between image IQ and graphical 'availiability'.

Also, as a Killzone 2 fan, I'm slightly disappointed. This felt like COD in space, gameplay wise.

AI, dynamic gameplay are not what you show when you are trying to wow an audience who are primarily looking at graphical capability.

Hopefully gg stick with 3d for this. With the new setting that adds a bit colour this could be really good. 3d and dark just dont go, its kills depth.

950x1080P doesnt look right.

And im confident its 1920x1080P. I see no reason not to believe it isn't why are you doubting it so much? its miles more powerful then the PS3/360 and is perfectly capable of this game in 1920x1080.

They showed him jumping over those little walls, and he threw that knife at the guy. It also looks like they brought back the secondary firing modes from the first game.

That's all I got.
 
Heh. I don't think I've ever seen a major Conference demo full-on crash before...
Cod mw3 demo started with the guy should ' behold the power of the Xbox and the controller disconnected. Everyone laugh.

For resistance 2 demo, Ted price got stuck in the geometry and missed instant boring lame death by half a second his entire team trained and trained and the shat bricks when they saw their boss getting stuck there for half a second

Same thing happened to Insomniac when they were showing Resistance 2.
Game would crash if the guy walked down some stairs the wrong way.
