Hey Everyone,
Here at Guerrilla headquarters we have been eagerly anticipating the launch of the Killzone 2. Today is that day. It is a fantastic occasion where we finally put the game in the hands of the people who have been so very supportive and vocal about the game all this time. Thank you for your support! We really hope you will enjoy your time with the game and are looking forward to joining you in online matches. If you see anyone with a ‘GG’ in front of their names, go easy. It’s us.

about to hit start thanks
Game is soooooo good.
One thing though, online voice chat is pretty poor.
I play a ton of online games, and it’s nowhere near where it should be.
Very little to no lag though, so that’s good. Any chance the voice chat could be improved somehow with a patch?
Whoops sorry. Retracting my comment out the input lag of ~5 sec. What I meant to say was ~5 frames! Sorry.
Anyways, just waiting for UPS to drop off my copy of KZ2 any time now. /self bored :-(
I just opened it up. Thanks for the great game. I hope the next project you are making a sequel to my favorite PSP game Killzone:Liberation. Thanks GG!
@asshander
Only around 200,000 people have entered the online part of killzone 2, so expect voice chat to increase once there are more than a million on the leaderboards,
Thank you GG! It’s been well worth the wait and whatever little time off you guys can get…you deserve it.
Good job GG, Killzone 2 is amazing from start to finish!
Thank you very much for making this game, Mr. Hulst and everyone at GG! I’ve only played a little bit of Skirmish with bots so far & am deeply impressed.
I would like to see some DLC that includes multiplayer with mechs and vehicles.
I’m very disappointed that you took bots out of online MP matches. This is a promised feature of the game and one of the main reasons that I and my friends are buying it. We don’t want to play with strangers who are usually foul-mouthed jerks. So we need to be able to add bots so we can have a full room. We don’t care about stats. Just give us unranked rooms with everything unlocked so we can have fun (remember that’s why people buy games–they want to have fun not track some meaningless stats). I hope you will rectify this situation as soon as possible. Thanks.
This is one kick ass ride! I would have to say this should definitely be in the running for game of the year. Outstanding job Guerrilla! I wish you the best on your next project! You have proven that the PS3 is a powerhouse. You have hit top spot for developer of the year in my book! I have to get back to busting some Helghast heads!
AWESOME!!!!!!
I love it man, it’s the Game of the Year in my opinion so far… and I’ve been waiting for something to make me stop playing COD4.
Haven’t even touched the single player so I got lots of hours to enjoy this baby!
Killzone 2 more than exceeds my own personal expectations of this game, and goes beyond the target render video that stirred the pot years ago. The incredible amount of polish is a testament to the passion of your developers and design teams, GG.
I look forward to many days ahead filled with multiplayer mayhem. :)
absolutely amazing
Why did you remove the bots from online play?! That was the closest thing to a co-op mode this game had, and now it doesn’t even have that.
I don’t care if some 13 year old kids are complaining because some people are ranking up faster than them, who cares. I just want to be able to play with my friends in a private room against a bunch of bots for maximum fun.
Please change it back. :(
You know Im gonna be honest here for a sec.Im a huge COD fan Love all of them.I actually almost didnt even get KZ2.But I got it,It looks great But the movement……..Takes getting used to but now This game is one of the best fps games I have ever played.I mean really sweet job GG ty for taking you time on this game.
It is ironic that I won’t be playing Killzone 2, because I don’t have a PS3, yet. But, when I do watch your back, I’ll have you in my gunsites.
To celebrate the release of Killzone 2, I’ve posted a FREE DOWNLOAD of my Dragonfly Game Flipz book based on the excellent Killzone: War. Perfected. TV commercial. You can see it on user movie at Gametrailers.com, youtube and my blog. Here’s is a chance for Killzone fans (and all gamers) who said they wanted one to have a Dragonfly Game Flipz, to get one. So, pass the word to friends and Killzone fan sites.
Just go to my website, http://www.dragonflyent.net, and click on the cover image in the upper left hand corner to download the PDF file. Read the instruction on the 11th and 12th page. Basically print it out and assemble it. As a bonus, I’ve included a choice of ISA, or Helghast cover art.
I just picked up the Brady Games Killzone 2 game guide book from my local GameStop. My Dragonfly Game Flipz books would have been a nice bonus for pre-order customers, but I quess it wasn’t meant to be. I may do more from time to time, my main focus will turn to my own projects. Look for them soon.
Enjoy.
went to midnight launch and showed up at 11:30pm. i was the only one there :(. In total only 5 people picked up their copy then.
great game though. well worth the wait. i wish the online round time a kill level would default at 15 minutes and like 50 or so kills. The 5 minutes is way too short for my liking but if you search you can find people who have longer rounds which is nice.
just picked mine up from Best Buy but i have to wait for the lady friend to get off the PS3 b4 i can play. hope every1 is enjoying!
peace,
Lh
Custom soundtracks and some good ol trophies i’m straight and content with this game way to go sony!!!!
good job guys. just got my own copy and its a real pleasure plying it!
u guys desrve evrything!
No, thank you guys and girls at GG. Finally you can and have corrected your mistakes with the first Killzone with this masterpiece. Now to start on the dlc and patches to make the game even better. Thanks for the custom soundtrack too, my first game that has that, I appreciate it alot.
Congrats to Sony and GG. This is one of the best FPS I have ever played.
Now, can we please get some Killzone 2 avatars and some KZ2 LBP content?
Launching Killzone.com from within the game opens the browser.. and says Adobe 9 required.
Bravo. Bravo.
so i sat down to play this game above all game and not soon after my buddy calls ” yo man im comin over you picked up kz right ” . soon after he shows up grabs a controller and say lets play coop . well i just got it and started playing right away so i dont no were it is. after looking for several min we realized that there isnt any coop
so does someone wanna tell me y the [DELETED] there isnt any coop or even splitscreen with bot. you play through the whole game with another soldier any way….. ya so im just baffled to be honest
Great Game!!! Much better than the Demo
we should be the ones saying thank you to you guys.
you put a lot of time, effort and money into this game and it’s absolutely amazing.
i love it.
THANK U!
Whats up with the update (1.11) that won’t work? I’ve been dying to play this and I can’t get the update to download.
i want this fu**in game
My only complaint about killzone 2 is the slowdowns that happen due to loading in the campaign. Other than that this game is a great product.
playing now…..
@ 173
LOL, I haven’t bought the game but that’s the kind of programming mistake (guerilla tactic?) I just have to laugh at.
I’ll have to pick up the game tomorrow just to see that.
Hermen,
I’ve already sent this off as a feedback email through Killzone.com, but I figured I might have your attention here…
There’s a bug in the game that I and others are experiencing with SIXAXIS sequences…
I have Rock Band, and as such have dongles for both the guitar and drums plugged into my PS3’s USB ports at all times. As such, my DualShock 3 controller is assigned port #3 on startup.
Killzone 2 requires that I be using a controller on port #1, so I re-assign my controller after launching the game, which works fine until there’s a moment in the game which requires SIXAXIS. For whatever reason, SIXAXIS doesn’t work properly in KZ2 if the controller has been re-assigned after launching the game. I’m forced to pause the game and power-cycle the controller. That seems to solve the problem for me.
It’s definitely a glitch/bug though…whether it’s with the PS3 or the game, that’s for you guys to figure out. I’m hoping for a patch to resolve this issue, as it is a pretty major nuisance.
Cheers,
James
Also…Killzone.com will not display on a PS3 because it requires Flash Player 9 to be installed, where the PS3 browser is only capable of Flash 8 (I believe, feel free to correct me on this).
still wished I could replace the pistol with a diferent a weapon. so I could have an rpg and rifle.
This game far exceeds my expectations, Good challenging single player with intelligent AI.
And the most addictive multiplayer mode ever.
If anything there was not enough hype for this game, in fact the only bad thing I can say about this game is that it’s gonna distract me from homework and work, guess I can say goodbye to my social life.
I had to take a small break..
my eyes are bleeding from all the visual greatness coming out of my tv screen…
Thank You Guerrilla Games and Sony
The one thing that is just as awesome as this game is the awesome DTS surround sound and soundtrack. Oh, man, I am ENJOYING THE HECK OUT OF THIS GAME! Guerrilla, thank you so freakin’ much for such a great game!
NOT COOL GAME SAVES CAN’T BE TAKEN WITH YOU!!! WTF GUYS COME ON!!! PATCH PATCH PATCH!!!
So I pre-ordered KZ2 on amazon, and I got it today… Anyone want to tell me where my code for PlayStation Home is? It didn’t come with one.
Meh, Boo-urns..
i just beat the game and WOW you guys really out did yourselves, what a epic story for a epic game
I LOVE IT, THANKS GG FOR AN AWSOME EXPERIANCE
Been playing for four hours now. A little glitchy with “Killzone.com”. It DOES update my stats, but I can’t access it from my PS3.
No worries though. This game has restored my faith in the video game industry. It’s simply epic. I haven’t played for four hours just to say I did. I played because I found it absolutely addicting. And I haven’t even played online yet.
Can’t wait for that later :)
AWESOME job GG!
(starts slow clap leading to cheers and joyful yelling)
Thank you, GG, and Sony for all your effort! Masterpiece.
GG,
GREAT WORK! AMAZING GAME!
Can’t wait to play KZ2 in a few minutes, so I can see if it is finally an end to “the oranges rolling down the hill” comments.
I played single player and multiplayer tonight. Both are great, though the single player controls aren’t the most responsive and it hurts my gameplay (I know this was a design decision).
The graphics are flat out amazing. Sony should use this engine for more games, especially a scary third person game. ;)
GG has solidified themselves as a top-notch AAA developer. There is no longer any debate. But really, you can say that about all of Sony’s first part developers. <3 Sony
It was a pain to get it(long story), but it was worth it. Great game.
Awesome game. Thank you GG and Sony. I havent even touched the single Player yet but Ive had a blast with the MP. Definitely one of the smoothest and best nights Ive had online with a game on the launch day. No lag or major issues at all. Seriously keep up the good work. My wife and I thank you guys and even bought two copies so we could game online together.
party system is only thing needed……how can all of my friends and i play….my only complaint….Please add a party system, and thanks for the in game music…
love the game got it at 9am yesterday it is the best i even bought the book to i am determine to get all the intel trophies everything just want to thank u guys for makeing a hell of a game everything is just right nothing to change on the cover will be playing this for months THANK U GUYS
