Killzone 2

[ClinToN]

Well, it looks like everyone has something to say, so why not make it easier for GG to document the info/feedback that we have in one spot? Of course, you can also talk about what you like and don't want to be changed.

Please note:

• This isn't a DLC request thread.
• This isn't a thread to complain about other players.
• Keep it CONSTRUCTIVE.

In the end we'll all have a better online gaming experience. I will constantly update this post with all that I can in order to make it easier for the devs to read.

 Feedback thus far:

-Squad & Headset related-

• Add the option for PTT, but DO NOT make it default
• Add the option to turn off squads (some people may like it)
• Add the option to have no respawn
• Option to combine squads. Example: Say you have more than 3 freinds that you'd like to play tactically with, so a squad of 4 could ask to join another squad of 4. Not sure if it would be fair to still have 2 squad leaders, but that could be an incentive to keep squads seperate.
• Option to remove squads for custom rooms.
• Ability to have larger squads.. or the ability to have a CLAN squad where everyone in my clan in that game on the same team can talk to each other.
• Mute all option

-General Game Play -

• Add the ability to turn off the HUD/Crosshairs for all players
• Increase 5. min Body Count game play /Increase the required winning score/ kills number for Body Count mode.
• Larger Grenade blast radius
• When hitting SELECT to view the leaderboard, the character must not suddenly stop moving. It should be 'transparent; we therefore should be able to keep the action running even when viewing the score
• Hero / special character ability eg. Radec's campaign ability?
• Set health system/damage in custom games
• Lobby/party room
• Fix the BOT/Ranking System - Currently, killing bots allows players to gain in rank/stats.
  
• Ranked games should be Warzone only and preset rules designed by Guerilla Games. NO bots in them allowed.
• Reset the leaderboards - supplement link
• Add more ranks?
• Allowing us to use all the classes / weapons / badges in the Offline Skirmish mode right from the start  -supplement link
  
• Lobby system for NON-RANKED GAMES ONLY.
• Lobby Chat (similar to Killzone (PS2))
• You should be allowed to change game options in the lobby instead of quitting current session and creating a new one.
• Add option of having non-respawn games in private matches
• Stats screen—make it transparent and so that you can use it while playing without stopping the game.
• the range of the shotgun should be shortened
• Sniper zoom.  Can we have to option of mapping the zoom buttons to R3?  ability to zoom in and out?  and can we change it so when we put the zoom away and come back that it is always in 2x zoom?  Sometimes I leave it in 5x zoom and it throws me off for a close encounter.
• Make the Tactician's flying sentry bot more powerful
• Address Spawn camping(?)
• Rocket launchers damage need to be toned down.
• Add refresh to server list + some servers not showing up
• Possibly stop medics from reviving a player(?)
• Game setup custom playlists(?) - supplement link
• Preferred faction setting
• Different sniper rifle control layout - link
• Turret / Saboteur suggestion link

-Misc. -

• Add the ability to screen capture using the PS3's most recent firmware feature.
• Be able to record and post videos on youtube through the PS3
• Some kind of interaction between Killzon: Liberation and Killzone 2 (Ex. Reistance 2 & Resistance: Retribution)
• Some kind of remote play (Ex. LAIR) *Note: I don't mean being able to play the game, but maybe access your character page, clan page etc
• save custom classes/abilities/weapons so I don't have to select my preference each time I turn killzone on.
• While in the lobby, can we get talking icons next to our names instead of a GLB tag for 5 people at a time?  Just scrap that and put little voice icons next to our names, it would look better too.

 

-Killzone.com:

• Change the design to reflect Killzone 2 better
• Make the site less flash intensive, I'm no web site designer but take a look at doing CSS (for a great example check out http://www.apple.com/safari/welcome)
• Don't log us out all the time
• FORUMS MUST BE UPDATED. Get Lithium to update the software so we can use a WYSIWYG/Graphical Editor along with edit posts.
• A toolbar for Firefox and Internet Explorer to be able to access clan statistics, player statistics etc. with a click of a button.
• Fix isssue killzone.com always requesting for your date of birth to enter
• Fix Issue where the friends list does not populate and the messages in the Communication Center do not load.

• Add the option for PTT, but DO NOT make it default
• Add the option to turn off squads (some people may like it)
• Add the option to have no respawn

Killzone.com:

• Change the design to reflect Killzone 2 better
• Make the site less flash intensive, I'm no web site designer but take a look at doing CSS (for a great example check out http://www.apple.com/safari/welcome)

did you know that you can make custom games and make them "solo bodycount?" ok...my suggestion is to add more modes. ALL vs ALL would be cool, but the whole ISA vs HELLGHAST makes it hard to implement

[ClinToN]

I was going to do the same but seeing that the servers are up a day early and we're already seeing requests. Might as well tackle them ASAP.

I'll update and the end of each day.

Dear GG,

When hitting SELECT to view the leaderboard, the character must not suddenly stop moving. It should be 'transparent; we therefore should be able to keep the action running even when viewing the scores, just like in Team Fortress2 basically!

[ilikemonkeys]

New idea for a gamemode I've been toying with:

CAUTION SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

 The spoilers have to do with Radec

---

So one of Radec's abilities is to cloak like the scout but also he can teleport himself. So the idea is a "Hero" gametype where you have one player as Radec and the rest of the players are trying to hunt him down. It works much like Assassination only the target has special abilities. He can cloak himself and then teleport to areas really fast (not sure how you would do controls for that). You can have it so that one team is defending him (to much like Assassination though) or it's both teams against each other but all going after one objective... kill Radec. Just an idea though
