Could be or it may not be as awesome as fighting the Helghast.

In Halo:CE when they floud kicked in I stopped playing the game I hated those guys.

On the other hand in Uncharted when all those weird creatures start attacking you like the nazi zombies or the blue avatar people who live under a mountain it was exciting.

be there as many antagonist as they may, but 2 protagonists or even missions for both sides of the war will be KILLER! please make that happen GG! KZ4 maybe?

KZ3 will have better and DIVERSE environments!

@ Bits-N-Kibbles lol killZone had diverse environments urban, jungle and snow and orbital platform (space)

I have a feeling your hunch will be spot on. I too believe that at some point in the game 'we' will be fighting alongside one of the factions, perhaps even wearing the Helghast uniform.
And yeah, the story is rich enough. People only want it to be thrown directly in their faces. Well, I think they are going to be obliged this time.

Here I am. I think most shooter games' stories are very generic and simplistic.

The characters for games like Halo and Gears of War and Crysis and Half Life 2 and Killzone and Resistance are all one-dimensional. Where are there back-stories?

Where's Sev's backstory, where's Visari's backstory, where's Rico's backstory?

Does anything happen in the game that gives us some idea of the Helghast culture? Where are the women and children?

How come every ISA soldier's motivation for being the war is to kill Higs? Are there any soldiers in the ISA who say, "Hmm, maybe we shouldn't be doing this"? And all the Helghast troops have the same personality.

That is the definition of shallow. There's no depth to the characters. The plot twists don't signify depth. A good story is supposed to have a lot of character development and symbolism and character dynamics and relationships. For example, one character is usually a foil to another character. Whereas one is weak, the other is strong. One is brave, the other a coward. One a patriot, the other a subversive.

In Killzone 2, I felt like everyone was mindlessly fighting. Only at the very last cutscene was there a glimmer of hope that maybe Sev was seeing things differently.

I hope that GG will work harder on Killzone 3's story, but as far as Killzone 2 the story was extremely shallow.

SOAD said it perfectly. The ending of K2 had that glimmer, but the rest was just your typical FPS. The action, the atmosphere, and the actual game was great to play, but the story wasn't, and the atmosphere was killed at times by the dialogue, especially Rico, God I hated Rico. But even Rico, in the very end, shows just how much of a dangerous person he is, killing people at will. He is a man of great emotion and it's evident that he too can play a good role in the game. I have no doubt that Rico would kill Sev if he were to turn, the guy is an animal. Everybody wants to kill him for a reason.

K2's story was not "rich". It was very typical and had many flaws, dialogue being a big one and objectives being pretty typical: protect this and that, defend this, etc. This is an example of where the graphics is such a big focus that the actual expansion of the game is reserved for sequels. This is why K3 will be so great, there is just so much that is possible and being done (at least GG promises).

raztad, I don't know who was downplaying K3's story since it hasn't been seen. I assume you mean K2? And if so, it had its faults man, let's not pretend it didn't.

K2 was not perfect, and I'm happy GG is paying attention to the key areas instead of tossing together another game with new multiplayer like others seem to do. I'm very excited for the story. The universe of Killzone has always been fascinating but it was barely explored in K2. Now with K3 they are promising so much more. A look into the culture is something fans have been spamming their forum boards with for so long and it's good to see GG listening.

Anyways, it will be interesting if we become the antagonist ourselves as Sev. Wonder if the game will allow for alternate endings in that way, and hopefully I can kill Rico this way. The Helghast have humanity in them despite having been led by a vicious leader, and I'd like to think we aren't just fighting an entire race who are just bad because they have to be. GG realizes this about K2 and that's why they are emphasizing story so much now.

Edit: @Raz below

Ah okay, well in that case, those people should be pleasantly surprised! There is a lot of hype on story now, let's hope GG takes this to the stratosphere!

I didn't like Days Gone either, it doesn't deserve to be on any best of list.

Same. They nailed it with Horizon. The trouble is I also want a new Killzone! Can't I just have it all?!

I’m with you I want Horizon 3 , Killzone and new IPs

One year after realease HZD sold 7.6 million.

https://www.noobfeed.com/ne...

So not a drop off.

Unless you're saying a HFW should have sold as much now as HZD sold in 5 years?

It's been 3 games, this includes Call of the Mountain. Also no, its a great improvement over HZD.

lol you are comparing:

HZD: 28 February 2017 - May 2023 (6 years+)

HFW: 18 February 2022 - May 2023 (1 year+)

We will see if it surpass original number.

There were rumours that they were working on a Socom reboot.

Even emulators are super simple to use.

Youre getting flak because people on here thibk of themselves as pc wizards. But honestly most poeple try and go get emulators and romz they end up with malware.. yes theyre "easy" if you know the basics but alot of people dont. That said the fact that its taken nearly 20 years to get a sustantially better experience for ps3 games than on its native system shows the complexity of getting bc to work. Sony, if they have any intention, should just invest in a vastly better psnow experience.

Did you purposely miss the entire point of my post?
