Killzone 3 Slated for Being a 'CoD Clone'

Reviews for Sony’s much publicised shooter Killzone 3 are out with critics condemning the title for being too much like a Call of Duty clone.

The Guirrella-developed PS3 exclusive is averaging 87 per cent on Metacritic.

My only problem is they need to put more weight on the weapons that KZ2 had cuz it sorta does feel like cod.

hay5583d ago

So, KZ2 was criticized for being different than CoD, and KZ3 is for being more like a CoD? WHAT THE F*UCK?!

Dart895583d ago

Dang man don't get all mad on me i'm just stating if they add a little weight to the weapons it would feel alot more like kz and not cod.

hay5583d ago

It's not on you. I also prefer the old KZ2 feeling, but people will always find a topic to b*tch on.

FailOverHero5582d ago

Criticized?? By whom? It scored a 91. The only people that criticized it were the 8 million ps3 players that preferred to play cod. This time around GG decided to make their game noob and cod friendly so that is why they are being slated for it. It should sell more now because of the cod factor though

Christopher5582d ago

As I said, Guerilla is in a no win situation.

Number 1 complaint about KZ2? Weight and controls not being like CoD.

Number 1 complaint about KZ3? Weight and controls being too much like CoD.

Gamers are some of the whiniest bunch of people out there. There's no making them happy no matter what you do.

M-Easy5582d ago

@FailOverHero
You again in another Kizzy 3 article. For someone who hates all things sony you sure can't get enough sony stories. Don't you have people to yell at crossing your bridge?

SeNiLesBack5582d ago

A little Team Fortress 2 as well. But all games borrow from each other. Not a big deal if done right.

One funny thing that makes the game odd is, has anyone grabbed a grenade out of the ammo boxes? I feel like a little kid reaching up and into the box to grab one. Whats up with that? LOL

aCasualGamer5582d ago

@hay

I believe the people who are saying that it's too much like COD are those who enjoyed the old heavy weight KZ2 gameplay. It made it realistic and even though it was too heavy at times, the patch made it just perfect.

Now though, COD fanatics all over the world have bit**ed about the controls being so laggy that Guerilla Games have made it too much like COD. The characters move like Flash and the weapons are just as light weight as COD.

I wished Guerilla Games would've sticked to the KZ2 gameplay and said "Hey, we're not COD.. This is a different game, if you dont like it, go back to your broken OPS".

So pissed that a great game like the KZ franchise got disturbed during production because of loud mouthed COD fanatics.

Urahara5582d ago

There fault. They had the ability to give players the option to make it a choice to play like Shit of Duty or Killzone. They also had the choice to stick to what made their game great instead of pussying out and giving in.
But they didn't, and they'll pay for it. Good Job GG.

HappyGaming5582d ago

I play a lot of MW2 (yes I am ashamed to say this) but before that I used to play KZ2 all the time and whenever I switch back to KZ2 it was always hard.

But yesterday after downloading the BETA I easily got 10 kill killstreak and the reward of 250 points popped up.

I could never do that in KZ2 because I was too used to MW2 so I kind of agree it must be a lot more like MW2 than KZ2 was.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The only things me and a lot of people don't like about Cod games are:
Lame old engine graphics
Glitches
Lag
Campers
Commando Pro

Killzone 3 has:
An awesome engine with great graphics
Very few glitches (not as many as MW2 anyway)
No lag
It is hard to camp
Melee kills are epic and although they are a good way to show off you have a huge disadvantage of being killed by other enemies while you are finishing someone off.

Everything else in MW2 and KZ3 seems similar but imo everything else is good in MW2 anyway.

Pixelated_Army5582d ago

man I'm tired of seeing this comparison to COD, KZ3 plays nothing like that shitty franchise.

eraursls845582d ago

Exactly, the fans liked it, kz3 is fun but it is a tad to close to cod. I like cod but I also loved kz2 because it was different than any other shooter. People who weren't fans bitched about kz2, so they changed it and now the fans are left in the cold.

TheShow015582d ago (Edited 5582d ago )

First they complain the controls are not like CoD and now they bitch its a CoD clone .... to all the CoD freaks ...
Fuck You. Thanks for ruining my KZ3 ....

so Killzone 3 creating insecurity in trolls and haters much?

funny....

tigerstyle5582d ago

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH r u fucking kidding me? This game, no way in hell, DOES NOT play like cod whatsoever. Call of duty is ape shit trash. Especially black ops... Garbage. Kz3 is on it's own scale.

Who the fuck says these things anyways? Probably xbox fangirls... Plus if u go to kz3 boards, 5/10 threads r about people whining that this is nothing like cod games... Seriously.

sobekflakmonkey5581d ago

i think the controls are fine, and i honestly dont find anything wrong with the game thus far, i think people need to stop complaining and just shut the fuck up...

r1sh125582d ago

In the FPS realm theres no way to get in without a COD comparison.
say what you will about COD, good or bad its been made the benchmark for all games even though recent releases are not as good as its predecessors.
The thing is that COD's fan base is still increasing because more casuals are playing it, my biggest gripe with killzone 3 is that they added move support.
Only a few people will use it, FPS are made for controllers.

inbetweener5582d ago

Your biggest gripe is the addition of an optional feature which you can ignore and still have a complete experience? Odd...

SWORDF1SH5582d ago

Agree with inbetweener.

Why complan about an additional feature?

Anyway I'll be using Move support. Just got to get a Nav controller.

fooltheman5582d ago

...online with move..guarantees full rooms...
it's isn't for the casual..because there is no aim assist ..Read NO aim assist online...

HappyGaming5582d ago

FPS are made for the controllers?
That is the first time I've heard this one.

Usually you hear FPS games suck on controllers they are better with a K&M

NiKK_4195582d ago

i actually think kz3 is even better with the move, i'm about as good moving around as i am with ds3 but shooting is definetely better, once i got used to it though, but it was worth it, i never went back to ds3, tried and it didn't work out so good lol

sobekflakmonkey5581d ago

I dont get why anybody would hate on additional peripheral support, like you can use different control types and such, its not like you HAVE to use it, its the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard...

fredfenster5582d ago (Edited 5582d ago )

@Dart89: It doesn't feel like CoD, it's just a less weighty feel. I prefer the KZ2 feel as well, so I put sensitivity to 10% and that works perfectly.

the_best_player5582d ago

true and I have no problems with KZ2 and KZ2.
also at least GG has the guts to change their unlike COD (COD games are just MODs from COD4)

problemchild845581d ago (Edited 5581d ago )

@fredfenster: Yea thats the same thing I did, it seemed way too sensitive at the default 30%. Once I lowered it to 10% I was doing some serious dirt!

As far as the weighty controls go I dont think that they changed it a whole lot from KZ2, just seems more responsive, def doesn't play like COD (Thank God!)

Killzone3___5582d ago

i agree but the current weight isn't like cod , it's still feels like killzone , they made the weight like that to aim faster just like in real but you are right on the weight of the weapons ...

TheShow015582d ago

the weight of the guns is what made killzone 2 ....

xAlmostPro5582d ago

It so far from COD its insane. People will hate about anything.

There still is a weighty feel but movements and controls are alot smoother/responsive this time, which is a good fix. I loved killzone 2 but sometimes it could get a little frustrating.

But yeah they fixed that, then you have no overpowered killstreak rewards, you must wait a few seconds to respawn in every game mode, Warzone is a killzone only game mode(which is probably one of the funnest gametypes i've played in any game), it looks better, it runs better, you shoot people and you actually get the kill.. you shoot thin air and sadly COD players, you miss. The maps are far greater, gun recoil is better, less lag(haven't had any yet) guys i could go on..

It's not a clone, its better.

The only cod i still enjoy playing is Cod4 the others are awful and cod4 is getting boring for me now after having to go back to it because mw2 was bad then again because black ops was a let down.

This is just my opinion though, its like a breath of fresh air just how well it runs tbh, i've been looking for a new fps game to get into because COD is dying out(for me)and this is doing the job so far.. crysis 2 & bulletstorm demo's didn't impress me, but im going to try homefront when the demo's out and brink, resistance 3 etc. But until they come out i'll be playing killzone 3.

P.S i suggest you ignore the articles and find out for yourself and download the open beta :) nobody is a better judge of things you like than you.

finbars755582d ago

Are you crazy.It still has the weight to the guns.Just because they put more speed in the game its automatically called a cod clone.Give me a break.The game feels more balanced to me and I still feel the weight with different guns.I cant even believe they would put post this crap Killzone3 is a cod clone.Plzzz killzone will always be its own shooter end of story.

DeadlyFire5582d ago

I agree weighted weapons = more realism. Less arcade action arena CoD style.

Advice for Guerilla Games. Don't change what works. KZ2's formula worked. KZ3 we don't know yet. Time will tell.

GezForce5582d ago

i absolutely love the new controls and feel of the game(much better paced). this is defintely a step up visually and performance wise from kz2.. well done Guerilla no complaints here.

Thatguy-3105582d ago (Edited 5582d ago )

In the world we Live in no one is ever happy !!! GG did what they had to do and changed what most ppl were bitching about about in KZ2 ...But the question I ask myself is since when do reviewers put so much emphasize on the story ?O.o even if the story lacked the multplayer makes up for it this time around !!! And from what I experienced in the Beta the feeling steel differentiates itself from COD !!! COD=ARCADEY !!! All you do is run and shoot KILLZOne takes more than that !! But COD or not Killzone 3 is still a buy for me ppl that downplay it Can SUK IT !!!!

BTW BRUTAL MELEE KICKS ASS !!! That's how I get the majority of my kills lol add me ThatGuy310-_- and I'll show you :p haha

NewShadow1015582d ago

haha... now that call of duty is over hyped, it will be impossible for any FPS to be better. everybody talks about how COD is the best game ever, and if you play anything else your a fag apparently. w/e i am enjoying the beta, and i quit playing black ops a long time ago. i believe i quit because everybody wouldn't shut up about it, i got tired of hearing about it. its the only game anybody wants to play anymore, talk about repetitive.

FailOverHero5582d ago

Just like they did with lbp 2...oh wait. Maybe, just maybe people have different tastes? No? Fable 3 scored 80, everybody just decided it just wasn't that great after all. Killzone 3 scores 85, ps3 fans head for conspiracy theories...what is wrong with this picture?
Whenever a ps3 exclusive doesn't get critical acclaim across the board you people start claiming bias but whenever the same happens to 360 exclusives the consensus is that its just not that great.

zeksta5582d ago (Edited 5582d ago )

Perhaps cause it wasn't all that great in the first place..

Keep in mind, I meant Fable 2, Not KZ3.

awesomeperson5582d ago

Its the way it was rated and the way it is been put down.

Seriously, reviews say it has some of the best shooting dynamics and multiplayer this gen, and then rate it down by a massive amount just because of its "story". Common.

Then sites troll around saying its only 4 hours, when it is more. It feels like places WANT something to be bad with PS3 exclusives half the time.

TheGreat_15582d ago

awesomeperson I have a feeling you're a hypocrite. What if they rate it down "by a massive point" (which is like what, .5-1 point? lmao) JUST because of the MP sucking.

The story is part of the equation. Most of the reviews say the story takes away from the SP experience, which is different than just having a bad story.

And how do you know how long the game is? If you've played it, please make a review of it yourself for others to read.

For crying out loud, the game has got all good reviews, if they scored games based on words instead of numbers like "Good" "Great" and "Awesome", you'd be complaining about people calling it great instead of awesome.

Isn't that just a little bit ridiculous?

Rainstorm815582d ago

The thing about Fable is Peter Moleneux always over hypes and underdelievers...

In this gen it seems like the more your game is hyped the more people will nitpick....unless its one of the top franchises in this generation...COD, HALO, MARIO

FailOverHero5582d ago

Perhaps cause it wasn't all that great
in the first place..
Keep in mind, I meant Fable 2, Not
KZ3.
Lol you just proved my point perfectly. We all agree fable was just not that great but somehow this doesn't apply to killzone 3 or gt5...right? Lol conspiracy right?
Wasn't Conviction said to be very short? Turned out it wasn't so short but nobody cried conspiracy because in general x360 players aren't tin foil hat wearing cry babies

Rainstorm815582d ago (Edited 5582d ago )

no they prefer only to wear foil ponchos when they cry...lol

But seriously It doesnt apply to KZ3 because the game isnt out and 90% of us havent played it.

GT5? whats wrong with GT5? Lackluster review scores? Who cares! The game is a beast, if you like simulators if not play NFS.....which is also a beast.

People shouldnt rely soooo much on the opinions of others...thats how you miss out of great things. According to the interwebs most games are on avg 5 hours....which we all know isnt true.

HeavenlySnipes5582d ago

from Fable 2 to 3. Heck I WAS a Fable fan after my friend let me borrow Fable The Lost Chapters when I first got my 360 and had no games. Fable 2 took out most of the magic from 1 and removed the mana bar and difficulty, I didn't even bother to get Fable 3 and my non purchase was justified after seeing dev diaries where they focused on the player being able to CUSTOMIZE there useless house and have same sex marriage. THAT S*** instead of bringing back more RPG elements and magic from Fable 1.

KZ2 was much better than its predecessor and its main complaints wer on its story, the colour palette and its "controls being to hard". So GG (unlike Lionhead), decided to focus on fixing these. The added more story elements with more than an hour of utscenes, the colour palette had added more colour and the controls are easier to pick up and play.

What was the result? Reviewers that DID not - points off KZ2 because of the story take HUGE points off for the story and now say the game is like COD. The same damn reviewers that give COD 90+ with their terrible SP.

WhiteNoise5582d ago

I don't think it's so much that people are putting the game down as FANBOYS ARE HYPING THE GAMES BEYOND WHAT THEY CAN DELIVER.

GT5 was supposed to blow every other racer away.

But it had barren plain green textures for 'mountains' and sprites for trees.

If fanboys didn't spend the last year talking about how much better killzone 3 would be than crysis 2 etc maybe the big come down wouldn't hurt so bad.

wissam5582d ago

GT5 Still the best racing game around do not fool yourself.
as for kz3 I must play the game first then make my judgment unlike you trolls here.

xAlmostPro5582d ago

yeah whitenoise.. just like every single year COD gets extremely over-hyped.. and turns out crap yet still gets amazing scores and praised for its lame stories that last 5 hours on hardened and always rip off a film.

Black ops completely used the whole fightclub twist.

Obviously people hype a franchise they love, it's what happens.. doesn't mean it should be reviewed unfairly.. and i say unfairly because COD clearly has some of the worst campaigns in FPS yet always gets a free pass, if that game doesn't get knocked down for it why should others?

Nothing fanboy about that, just facts dude

Thats bullshit the weapons still have weight use the SMG then the assault rifle and the assault rifle is heavier. plus GG reduced the sight sway so you feel better aiming and moving. and it feels nothing like Cod.

what about BC2 and Moh scores then. they all feel and play different

Ju5582d ago

Yeah, I was just about to say. What the fuck! It does not play like CoD at all! Gameplay is faster than in KZ2 - but it very much plays like the older title.

Shok5582d ago

I don't see any gay killstreaks and perks........

Also, when I shoot somebody, the shot is actually registered......

jetlian5582d ago

have them. like that i'm a friend when i'm actually a foe!! the sentry gun can't see past 25 feet! thats the only class I used

I wish sony releases a n wireless adaptor.

Shok5582d ago

The key word in my post was "gay" lol. Those are perks, but they're not GAY perks.

The disguising can be easily detected - all you have to do is look at the color of the names above the character's head. If it's green, it's an ally, if it's red, it's an enemy. Also, that ability is really good for the game because it keeps players on their toes.

The sentry gun can't see past 25 feet because it's balanced that way. It'd be gay and cheap if it could see any further lol.

Ultraplayerxp5582d ago

^^
lol.I hate the infiltrator class. When they have their disguise at level 3 its gets really hard to detect them until they're really damn close. When I have to guard the bomb spot in the dam in operations I just shoot anyone I see lol.

jetlian5582d ago

gay that 25 feet can't block any rooms. you have to post it near a door which makes it easy to spot and distroy.

And i know the colors of red and green however it isn't instant!! its like 3 secs before it turns red. why would I look at my teamates longer than 1 second!

not bad but annoying. still need to try the others out for myself

xAlmostPro5582d ago

you can also tell disguise by the way they walk and guns they have..

ISA & Helghast characters both move differently and when disguised keep the character they actually are's disguise. And the same with guns.

Ju5582d ago

Disguise. Well, you can't tell. But that's why I have to shoot my friends at list once. One bullet, disguise gone.

PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.

30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.

Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.

Still looks secure 2 gens later... one of my favorite ps3 moments. With 3D and move the game is on another level

MadLad1857d ago

PC almost always ends up the best place to play games, even if it takes a while.

What would you rather play decades down the line? A game at a fixed resolution and frame, considering you have a working disc, and the hardware?
Or run it on an emulator that can update the experience all around, and let you use whatever control input you prefer?

If you insist on the former, it's really only for the sake of nostalgia.

Applejack1857d ago

I disagree. The main draw for consoles has always be the simplicity of just putting the disc in / downloading it and playing without worrying about anything else. The average person just wouldn’t want to deal with emulation even though it’s very important for preservation.

Terry_B1857d ago

Even emulators are super simple to use.

jukins1857d ago

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.

1857d ago
Vegamyster1856d ago

jukins

Most people who emulate don't get malware, you'd have to be going to some weird sites for that to happen, heck years ago people were getting sketchier ad's resulting in malware warning on this site if you didn't have a ad-blocker lol.

SinkingSage1856d ago

Can't get malware if you legally dump your own games, which you should.

Rachel_Alucard1856d ago (Edited 1856d ago )

That's fine if that's the main draw, but it doesn't make it a better experience, just a preference. Having the freedom to do the things you can do on PC is what the appeal of PC is. Buying a game on PC means you never have to worry about the console makers just deciding the next hardware shouldn't support the generation anymore, which means everything you bought is stuck on that hardware instead of moving up with everything else. Nintendo uses this tactic to keep reselling the same games over and over at inflated prices. Sony cut all previous gens off the PS4 and sold it back to people in a poor attempt with PSnow. While the PS5 supports PS4 games, that may not be the case in the next gen after this. No to mention shutting off all the previous stores and updates completely. Even MS stopped making new BC titles at some point, so now there's a big list with 17 pages of titles that are not playable on Xbone and are just trapped on older gen. That's not a problem on PC, the reverse happens where you only have to worry if your hardware can play the newest releases at ultra with no issue.

Shhh don't say that aloud! You're going to trigger a lot of console infidels here.

I rather play it when it's available then wait 10 years.

Well that's the beauty of still owning a retro console tho. Those who usually complain about emulation are just being blindly loyal to a company. Emulation is great for many reason, but if I still owned the console then I disagree nothing beats plugging it back in and going down a nostalgia trip

2 is the better game.

A Remake would be good. 60fps 2-4k

60fps is peasant for FPS games now
