Beating Radec
Spoiler:
Easiest way for me was to get a shotgun and sniper rifle. Go into the small room (where you enter the big room with gun racks on either side) with your back against the wall. Put you sniper rifle down and use the shotgun (on gun racks). Radec can only come at you from the front. After you hit him a few times with the shotgun he'll move upstairs. If you teamate is healthy Radec will go after him first. Usually means easy pickings with the sniper rifle. If he comes back down just switch the the shotty again. I beat him in less than 10 minutes on hard using this method. Seems as I was heading to the small room I hit him with a rocket or two before getting my shotgun and sniper rifle ready.

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
Too scared to comb through the thread and see a spoiler. Would someone be kind enough to give me a rough time estimate on the single player campaign? Muchos gracias.

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
So I discovered the most powerful weapon in the game last night. No, I'm not talking about the lightning gun. I am of course referring to the knife!

I did almost the entire Cruiser level using only the knife except when I had to shoot down drones or the heavy. Basically you just run at the enemies and swing when you get close. You can use the knife while running so it's even better than the rifle. I don't think any bad guys took more than 2 swings to take down either. It's ridiculously overpowered, at least on Normal. I'll be getting that 75 knife kills trophy pretty quick.

The knife is pretty powerful. It won't work on Radec very well though.

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
The knife is more powerful than the shotgun at close range. So yeah, it should work better at some stages.

I played on normal and it took me just under 6 hours.
Was it common knowledge that this game was incredibly short? I listen to 3-4 podcasts and the shortness of the campaign was never mention as far as I remember, even though everyone seems to mention RE5's shortness and every other game that clocks in under 8 hours.
I'm kinda upset actually. It was a good game, but its definitely apparent that they spent so much of their resources on the presentation and graphics that they didn't have much time to develop more levels.

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
These days most shooter are no longer than 8 hours. Between 5/6 and 8-10 hours is the norm. Since MP is one of the biggest part of FPSs, people don't expect campaign to be that long.

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
A little bit in the high but those are usually the prices in FPS. Most of the time is around $10 for 4 maps.

Then again, I'm really not interested in MP for this game.

Loving the multiplayer, the new maps are pretty good too. No one here playing it anymore?

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
Yeah, so instead of $10 for 4 maps (which is already kinda steep, though what's common and accepted), we get 4 maps for $12. And I bet these will never go free like the older Halo and GoW maps do after a while.

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
I'm getting a bit PO'd

each of the last 2 nights I have had the game lock up/freeze in MP during long matches
nothing like playing for a good hour and not getting any credit for it

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
I just got the game, I've been playing a few multiplayer matches. it's pretty fun but I'm finding most people will have way better aim than I ever will. when I end up shooting 1 on 1 I'm usually dead before I even hit em, even when they're standing still. and the SMG I just got, forget it. I spray bullets all over then get popped in the head by the guy I'm trying to shoot.

single player was much easier for me

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
^ a few words of encouragement ..... practice, practice, practice
I was never a big FPS fan or online player but I have been having a blast with this game
there will always be others much better than me but I know I am getting better
sure it sucks to be hit by a guy running around you with a pistol when you have a missle launcher ... but it is so fun also to pop a guy from up close in one shot with a shotgun

just make sure you are setting your options to play with people of the same rank as you

the kill/chirp sound in this game has to be one of the best (most gratifying) sounds ever in videogames

Re: Killzone 2 ACTUAL Gameplay footage
Yes I have it set to play people my rank. I got lucky a lot early on and was on the winning team almost every time, so I got my rank up to whatever it is when you're a medic, and people are getting a lot better now. getting harder to stay alive But, I kind of decided I hate my username and want something else, and I think it said I can't change it and keep my settings so I might see if it will let me start over with a new one. I put XX in front of my name, and when I'm in a squad people keep calling me X and I never know they mean me

I have been putting in more time to MP and think it is wicked fun. Wish I started on it earlier but have been busy with a new house.
