Kind of annoying, since it looks like you're doing everything right, and all of a sudden a human dies on you. I think the best I've done is 7 saved in a level.
You just have to kill the group of keepers that spawns to save a human.

This is stupid...can you unplug the controller while playing. It's charged but I'm tired of sitting on the floor and want to move to the couch.

re: PS4 Release Thread: Kill Launch App #Driveclub due October 2014!!!

Knock on wood, but I just wanted to say what a good experience I've had since launch.

I came home roughly around 12:15 and hooked the PS4 up. Turned it on and did the system update over the net (PSN was still perfectly fine at that point). I tinkered with Killzone for a half an hour and called it quits. Woke up yesterday morning and spent most of the day playing without issue. Played a bit today, still without issue. I'm hoping things stay that way. Not enough people talk about their GOOD console, so I figured a vocal minority might be a nice thing :P

Of course you can, it doesn't care where it's plugged in. You can charge it using any device that has a USB port.

Bought from Amazon.

Pulsing blue light out of box. No change.

Going back to Amazon.

I'll buy again when Infamous comes out.

I don't even care about the game part of Killzone now. I can't stop just walking around looking at all of the different textures and everything. Wow.

Hold down the PS button and choose Log Out Of PS4.

re: PS4 Release Thread: Kill Launch App #Driveclub due October 2014!!!

I've sent a few friend requests and will probably send a few more here shortly....

Resogun...WOW...what a freaking light show and additive to boot. Still haven't popped in Killzone or Knack. Did do the entry to Warframe but didn't play any level. It looks good and see four player coop as a strong point.

On a good note my wife asked about Knack and if I'm playing it with "Zane"... and I said no; only one person at a time. She asked,"I thought you said it had co-op?" which I said yea but I didn't order another controller because everything already cost a lot....I think we're getting another controller no-matter what.

There are two types of Keepers. You'll see a line being drawn on the screen and that's the path they will take before flying off screen. The corresponding human box will be flashing as well, so while you're zipping around the board take note of which one is flashing. Kill the Keepers that spawn on that line path and the human will be released.

The second type just fly around the board. They have a neon green glow around them. Kill all of the ones that are glowing and release the human.

I've run through the game 3x on easy, one with each ship for the trophies. Hopped in Experienced just to try it out. Tough. Looks like the multiplier at Recruit maxes at 5x, experienced 10x and veteran 15x.

How I'd rank the ships:

3rd - most powerful, bigger ships go down with no problems(even bosses go down pretty easy), but firepower and weapon upgrades tend to only shoot horizontally which requires solid bullet/enemy dodging skills.

1st - good little ship, the weapons target enemies so you don't have to be as accurate but enemies require more hits. Minimal dodging skills required.

2nd - average mix of the other two

Tried Twitch for the first time last night. Pretty simple to get going. Had to sign up, but after that, I was up in no time. Couple friends hopped online to check it out. Probably not something I'll use often, but pretty cool.

So where is the "take over friend's PS4" option? Didn't they make a big deal about a friend being able to "hop in" and play your game? I was wanting to try that out.

Shared a screenshot on fb for the hell of it. Kinda silly you can't send screenshots to people on your friends list.

My father-in-law has already said PS4 is phenomenal, and better than Xbox One in every way
On the 360 the kinect would start calling time outs because it thought I said to call one, which was annoying. If the recognition software is much better, then yeah it can be a cool feature, but otherwise it's just annoying.

I've done it before, this must be something new they're doing with these codes.

Loving my PS4 so far been playing COD. Only real thing I didn't like was that annoying background music playing on the dashboard, good thing there was a way to shut it off. It was giving me a headache.
