on 03-25-201105:21 PM

Hey all,

I know you want to be informed as much as possible. So I'm writing up the preliminary patch notes for Patch 1.07.

Please Note: this is subject to change and we don't know exactly when this will go live yet. I will inform you on that as soon as we can, but we are trying to roll this out in the first week of April.

Explanation of Custom Games

Custom Games will be rolled out in 2 patches. This one (1.07) and a future patch. We don't know when this will be yet.

PHASE ONE

Phase One of Custom Games gives players the option to create unranked games with the choice of:
•Game Mode
•Map
•Missions (Warzone only)
•Mission Time (Warzone only)
•Invite Squad members
•Invite Enemy Squad Leader

This gives players the ability to create private matches, and playing with and against friends or a rival clan for instance. People who don’t get an invite to these games won’t be able to join through matchmaking.

PHASE TWO

We still need to spec this out, so this is subject to change, but we are looking to add the options of choosing:

•More configuration options for missions in Warzone and Operations
•Adjustable kill count for Guerrilla Warfare
•Configurable Unlocks (choose which one you want to play with)
•Configurable Classes (choose which one you want to play with)
•Configurable Weapons, Abilities, Skills, Ribbons
•Friendly Fire On/Off
•Brutal Melee On/Off

That's it for now!

Thanks,

Lev

Amazon has once again partially revealed the Playstation Store updates for the next two weeks. The March 29th update seems a little light so far with only a few new game releases and DLC add-ons (most notably the Steel Rain Map Pack for Killzone 3) on the PSP and Playstation 3. You can check out the contents listed by Amazon for next week’s Playstation Store update below:

•Killzone 3 Steel Rain Map Pack - $4.99

Patch 1.08
. ..
on 04-14-201102:16 PM

Hey all,

The next patch is incoming. We don’t know exactly when the patch will be released yet, but we are aiming for the beginning of next week. It will go live at the same time world wide and we will also be doing a server update around that time to support the patch.

Patch 1.08 Contents list:

•Fix for DLC map rotation - Matchmaking will make the closest possible match based on the maps players have and other players online. All maps will be included in the map voting when rolling over to the next round
•Fix for a network error (5022) after respawning in Pyrrhus Crater
•Fix for a crash in Kaznan Jungle at the end of the round
•Fix for a crash in 16 user Custom Games on Corinth Highway

Once we have a solid date and time we will update you.

Thanks,

Lev

First we'll try to match people with similar map sets if they have their map preference set to 'Any'. Players will also be able to choose map packs as a search preference. So players should end up in a game that has players with the same set of maps.

If you are playing with friends who do not have any map packs or if you are in a game that has other people without map packs, than the map voting screen will only show the maps that are available for everyone.
