Its all about the trees lol :D
I don't know much about the killzone world but if its a world without trees thats heavily industrialized then why would they go with it ?

 

The lack of trees is just a small part on my Killzone 2 graphics explanation. Killzone 1 had plenty of organic matter and trees. 

Killzone 1 took place on Vekta, a paradise of sorts. This is where the Helghan originally moved to, but the ISA were pissed, and began a mass invasion of sorts. The Helghan moved to the planet Helghan, and called themselves the Helghast. Helghan was not a nice planet at all. Toxic gases in the atmosphere, everybody who worked outside had to wear masks to be able to breathe. It was extremely difficult to adjust.

The Helghast originally tried to re-invade Vekta, but the invasion was thwarted, and the ISA counter-attacked by launching a massive attack on Helghan.

Hope that explains things.

Right.... because you can never have plant life in a desolate wasteland.
