MP Trailer from Gamescom -



Around the Network

Sounds more streamlined than Killzone 2.  For me, the jury is still out.  Sounds a little promsing though. 



Check us out at the Vindication Gamer Network on Youtube.

PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

I loved KZ2. One of my favorite multiplayer games ever. In my top 5.



I wonder how big the maps are going to be if they have vehicles, jetpacks and mechs.  I would assume pretty big.   Also,  are the matches still going to be up to 32 players or more?



Around the Network

That sounds impressive...and we have such a long way to go too..it will keep getting better

Sounds promising so far.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

If the multiplayer is as good as the first one I am sold. This is going to be the only multiplayer game I'm going to be playing all year next year!

Modern Warfare 2 already has that ability! Except its usually known as getting spawn killed. muhuahaha.

 

On topic: Just 3 game modes kinda worries me, hopefully all 3 are fun, because even if just 1 of the 3 modes sucks ass then that only leaves you with 2 to play and that would get boring quick.

They said shit about bots, I sure hope that means you can have offline battles against bots like in Killzone 1, that would be fantastic.
