Killzone: Shadow Fall Multiplayer detailed

Detailed on the game’s official website, one of the standout features of the shooter’s online multiplayer component is that 22 weapons will feature, with all of them being available at your disposal without having to achieve any extra goals to unlock any of them.

mobile spawn beacon are BACK ... can't wait to go back to warzone

ZodTheRipper4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

YES! Hopefully I'll get that KZ2 feeling again that was somewhat missing in KZ3.

"That said, DLC multiplayer maps will be released for free “to prevent the player base from becoming fractured”."

YES YES YES! That's DLC done right, unlike other shooters that are charging 15 bucks for a handful of recycled maps.

Hatsune-Miku4636d ago

Glorious. The best looking game in the history of video games is being done right. Buying killzone sf first day

mafiahajeri4636d ago

10 maps is already a lot and we get free maps on top of that! This is what a launch title is supposed to be like!

JoGam4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

I can't wait for Killzone Shadow Fall, but I just hope the ability to unlock everything actually takes time this time around. In Killzone 3 I unlocked everything in like a week. The game was fun but other than winning and ranking up it didn't have a purpose. Take Battlefield 3 for example, I have the Platinum in that game and I still have some unlocking to do with the gun and vehicle parts. I like a game where unlocking items take time and there are many items to unlock. It keeps the game feeling fresh and give players something to shoot for.

Xsilver4636d ago

melee from the above like far cry except its in multiplayer this is gonna be awesome yessssssss.

abzdine4636d ago

3 classes only? that's weird i think it's 3 we know so far i'm sure there will be more in the end.
And i hope they skip tat Guerrilla Warfare mode it's useless and add more Operations missions they're cool.

BlingBlaine4636d ago

I wish all devs were as thoughtfull to their customers as Guerilla is.

60fps and 1080p to start, now free dlc!
Skipping cod and bf4 and goin to Vekta.

trafalger4636d ago

"That said, DLC multiplayer maps will be released for free “to prevent the player base from becoming fractured”."

Divine4635d ago

The main reason I spent so much time playing Killzone 2 othe than it being so much fun to play is the clan system. Really looking forward to being part of the clan scene in Killzone Shadow Fall.

Also the create a game mode feature sounds amazing, I already have a few game modes in mind. Also finally we will be able to play no respawn modes in Killzone.

pompombrum4636d ago

Have they even confirmed a clan system for Shadow Fall?

mxrider21994636d ago

@ ali yes they support clans but we do not know yet how they are supported

JoGam4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

HEY VITA OWNERS...GRAB KILLZONE MERCENARIES TOO, IF YOU CAN'T WAIT FOR SHADOW FALL, MERCENARIES WILL WET YOUR WHISTLE. THE BETA IS AMAZING.

Carry On!

Blastoise4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

Already paid for my copy :)

GG are upping their game!

bjmartynhak4636d ago

Addicted to the beta already. It is amazing!

NukaCola4636d ago

I agree. The beta is some of the best MP I've played in ages. Can't wait to see the single player campaign.

Chuk54636d ago

idk about combat honors.

mafiahajeri4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

There like the boosters you get before you begin a game in TLOU. You cant use them all the time you have to do good to get them so I think their fine.

AceBlazer134636d ago

Combat honors are awesome dude.They're not op so other players still have a chance.Think of them as a fair killstreak system.

Outside_ofthe_Box4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

I wish that crap was scrapped. Don't know why GG put it in the game. Good thing games are customizable.

Blastoise4636d ago

Yeah I'm not overly happy about those myself. I just hope they are very small ability increases.

Good job everything else sounds pretty great

ape0074636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

this game is my personal most wanted console exclusive at launch, looks so amazing, so charming and the level design is like goldeneye 007, non linear mission structure

i also cannot wait for watch dogs, CoD ghosts and BF4

happy gaming everyone

ZodTheRipper4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

The online multiplayer video blew my mind, those graphics make you feel like you're inside :D

I could watch the following seconds every day :D

mafiahajeri4636d ago

The aesthetic reminds a lot of Infamous I was expecting Desmond to pop out at any moment! Lol

aksmashh4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

Looks more colourful but im surprised they didnt include some sort of destruction!!

Killzone always had graphics but they need to add something different, still not sure which 1 to get this or bf4

Shakengandulf4636d ago

Im in the same boat as you, soo i bought both. Im sure both games will be great for what they are.

Maninja4636d ago

I'm getting battlefield on day one them this about a month later. I want one game on the first day just so I can get through the campaign and get used to the multiplayer. But both will be great games :)

scott1824636d ago

007 :) What an amazing classic.

ForgivenZombie4636d ago

This will be my first Killzone experience and I'm really excited by everything I'm seeing.

JoGam4636d ago (Edited 4636d ago )

You're going to love it. Welcome to the Killzone Universe.

ForgivenZombie4636d ago

Thanks, I think I'm gonna love it

15 Last-Gen Games That Still Compete with Current-Gen Graphics

GB: "Say what you will about the state of the industry, but even as games evolve, their graphics remain a key aspect. Even some of the biggest flops this year sport some gorgeous visuals, as publishers and developers push the boundaries of what’s possible, pouring years of time and money into their work."

Quantum Break and Ryse are two that I was really surprised did not get an FPS boost option when played on the Series X|S. when i started playing both on the XBO, I thought they are both good, but after playing them also on my steam deck (in 60fps) I just cant go back and play the base games on XB. They really benefit from that faster frame rate.

Driveclub is another i wished had a HFR mode on PS5.

MatrixxGT560d ago

Most games this gen are the exact same except now we get faster loading through SSD and a res and fps bump. Graphically not much has improved, hell most last gen games are being relabeled and resold as “remastered” with the aforementioned updates.
I haven’t seen or played anything on either platform that couldn’t be run on last gen. Guess the law of diminishing returns is really showing itself these days.

127maXimus559d ago

Most games from 20 years ago are basically the same as today, with resolution and fps upgrades. The AI is still just as braindead as it always has been, worlds are full of static, boring characters that do the same thing over and over.

Demetrius559d ago

Smh another reason why graphics haven't improved that much is because most devs too caught up on cross gen. Ps4 was/still a dope console but time has moved on we're halfway close to a ps6 reveal and devs still will be making games on last gen in 2025. Then theres Microsoft purposely got the Xbox series s that causes more devs to try to pull strings as much as they can smh. It's a mixed bag of stuff, the only ones I see pushing hardware is sonys studios and even some indie games look better

Why Guerrilla Games Shouldn't Abandon the Killzone Series

Hugely disappointingly, it seems that Guerrilla Games, developers of the Killzone and Horizon series, may be done with Killzone for good.

1 was fine, overhyped as a " halo" killer
2 was a graphical beast at the time, and felt heavy
3 was good a refinement of 2 but not much else. weird audio issues environment were to quiet
shadow fall was pretty but bland

OtterX567d ago (Edited 567d ago )

Shadowfall had great Multiplayer though. Too bad the campaign was meh at best. It did have the occasional great moment sprinkled in.

TheNamelessOne567d ago (Edited 567d ago )

I played through 2/3 multiple times. I played through the original once, but it felt pretty lukewarm for me. I couldn't be bothered to beat Shadow Fall. I got a couple hours in and just went "I'm done". Never touched it again. It was awesome on the tech side, being a launch title, but it didn't even match up to the first game when it came to actually having fun playing it.

Rude-ro567d ago

3 in 3d was an amazing experience to be had.
Although not many experienced it as intended for good reasons.

just_looken567d ago

You forgot the ai advancements on the playstation 2 killzone one you could have a full team of bots doing everything even playing the objective that was a big thing.

In killzone 2 they always flanked you and when available used the high ground.

Playing killzone 2 no hud 5.1 audio was/is awesome

MDTunkown567d ago

They should finish Horizon story first

darthv72567d ago

I dont mind if someone else takes up the mantle for the KZ franchise. We are several years removed from the first game. It certainly could use a remake to gauge interest in the rest of the series. I know it has its fans... Im thinking of how a proper reboot can rekindle that old dormant flame and bring in a new generation of fans in the process.

just_looken567d ago

You forgot killzone mercenaries on the ps vita but it was the worst selling sony game for awhile there.

Yui_Suzumiya566d ago

Yeah, a remake would be pretty awesome

anast567d ago

They should let it go or sell it. No use spending millions on this project.

LucasRuinedChildhood567d ago

Would like a new IP before Horizon 3. Just because games take so long to make these days.

Killzone After a Decade in Hibernation

It's been 10 years since Killzone: Shadow Fall arrived for PlayStation 4 early adopters, and there's no sign of another sequel.

Obscure_Observer910d ago

Sadly it was dumped by Guerrilla to focus on Horizon games only. Mainline, VR and Multiplayer.

Vengeance1138910d ago

lmao sadly? Are you pretending to have actually played the series lol Sorry bud, no Killzone on Xbox.

Cacabunga909d ago

With the downfall of COD and BF, Killzone def. has a chance to make a groundbreaking comeback

909d ago
Notellin909d ago (Edited 909d ago )

What a low-functioning reply here typical of the fanboy N4G community.

Rimeskeem910d ago

“Dumped”

I think it’s called moving on.

Barlos909d ago (Edited 909d ago )

They brought out 4 main games and 2 spin offs: one on PSP and one on Vita. That's a decent run for any series. I also understand that Shadow Fall wasn't a success commercially despite it coming out at PS4 launch, and as a big Killzone fan even I couldn't get into it, so I think Sony/Guerrilla could see it was time to move on.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love another Killzone game in the vein of KZ2 but it's just not happening. Hell, I'd even take a remake or remaster of the first 3 games.

I'd hardly say it was "dumped" though, it spanned 3 console generations and 2 handheld generations.

1Victor909d ago

@obscured:”Sadly it was dumped by Guerrilla to focus on Horizon games only. Mainline, VR and Multiplayer”

Happily it was dumped by Guerrilla to focus on Horizon games only. Mainline, VR and Multiplayer( edited to reflect the writer true feelings and allegiance)
Kill zone was a FPS far ahead of its glitched competitors with nauseating bad camera angles, 10 years old screaming curses like a drunk sailor and bot aiming assist.

ChasterMies909d ago

“Sadly”?

The Horizon games were among the best games of all time. Killzone Shadowfail wasn’t.

Shane Kim909d ago

True, but damn the memories of KZ2 multiplayer. Still no MP as fun as that to this date.

Mr_cheese909d ago

Dumped and shelved are two different things

Tacoboto909d ago

And Sony as a whole dumped the FPS genre so they wouldn't have products competing with COD and (until purchase) Destiny.

GoodGuy09910d ago

I loved the KZ2+3 campaigns and MP in 2. There could be so much more done with the franchise. Horizon although good, I wish they'd go back to this wonderful IP. Take a break from Horizon please.

Flawlessmic909d ago

Agreed dude, I would absolutely love a reboot of the series, one can only hope that either resistance or killzone makes a return.

Have nothing but great memories, especially of the first 3 games, but all 4 were show stoppers graphically.

blackbeld909d ago

To making it a successful reboot they have to change that buttons layout! Make it playable like the cod button layout. Otherwise I’ll skipping it again.

Rynxie909d ago

And that's the reason why many fps games failed. Instead of being original and catering to it's fans, they tried to make it like cod. No, kz doesn't need cod button layout. It needs to be like it was on kz2 or balanced liked kz3.

Lightning77910d ago

I think Kill Zone would do great in Sony's LS push. As well as MAG reboot and bring back Resistance into LS.

Sharky231909d ago

@Lightning77

I think WarHawk would have been a great Live service game.

thorstein910d ago

Killzone games were so polished. The gameplay was just simple joy. MP was one of the best experiences.

I remember KZ3, just staring at how awesome they animated the water and then getting wasted because of it.

P_Bomb910d ago

It’s been a decade? Now I’m sad.

LiViNgLeGaCY909d ago

I hear ya bud. We're due for a revival.
