Forums - Sony - Why KZ3 multiplayer is awesome

I am actually not going to answer this because I am fairly new to killzone but I was hoping you guys could answer the question. WHat makes KZ3 multiplayer better than cod, halo , resistance, etc. ? I know you guys may not think KZ3 actually has a better multiplayer but what makes it stand out and worth buying?

What makes it different:
  • Killzone 3 may look like a copy, but in reality is a squad based shooter.
  • There are 5 Classes to choose from, each with 2 three tiered abilities and three different weapons not counting side-arms.
  • It has the most dedicated lag free multilayer I have yet to play. 
  • The heavy feel is like Bad Company 2, however the animations are miles better for deaths.
  • Clans fight for rank, each clan is in the leader-boards, and individual performance is taken also.
  • Every time you die you are actually wounded, the medic class in your team can heal you. Or the enemy can shoot you again to kill you. Unless it was originally a head shot.

 

The Abilities

 

  • Infiltrator- Can disguise as the enemy for fun sabotage.
  • Tactician- Scans screen for enemies and sets up spawn points for teams.
  • Engineer- Can repair and build bots that shoot enemies. 
  • Marksman- Turns Invisible and snipes.
  • Medic- Heals wounded.
  • Full List HERE

 

Conclusion.

Killzone 2 is the best FPS i have played this Gen. This doesn't even take all the abilities and awesome weapons. Plus the maps and the fun grenades. And trust me, i have played basically every FPS, the only reason why i don't play killzone 2 anymore is because i love trophies. The thing is, Killzone 3 does everything better.



its tough to say whats so special about online games even if  most look exactly the same. its just a try and judge yourself thing.



BTW



Because they took out just about everything that made KZ2's multiplayer horrible and broken.

 

The gunplay in the game is amazing, the action is hectic, and it's gettin to that point where it feels like a real battle rather than just a small fragfest arena.

Besides that, I have to ask the same question you're asking because, KZ2's multiplayer had so many issues! I'm hoping for somethin awesome. GG's learned alot since KZ2 and my faith in them is slowly restoring....

I'm surprised no one mentioned the 32 players online. Sure MAG has 256 but KZ2 does better than Blops.

Time for hype

KZ2 had some of the greatest multiplayer aspects, but the fact that it felt like you were wading in jello, and a few balancing issues, kept it from being the greatest. 32 Players was awesome as well, it felt like a faster-paced Bad Company 2, but it had it's problems in the smaller maps.

KZ3 fixes all of these by not making TDM and Warzone such a clusterf*, but still having a good amount of players on either side. Guerilla also seemed to have learned a lot from the private beta, but we'll see how well they did in the upcoming Public Beta on February 2nd.

BTW: can someone who got in the KZ3 beta tell me; did they fix the rocket wh*res in KZ2? Nothing like defending the assassination target for 59 seconds before some kamikaze assault comes bursting in at the speed of light to ruin all the hard work.

One of my favorite aspects is the seamless switch from game mode to game mode in Warzone.  I'm pretty sure guerrilla already confirmed this to be staying in KZ3.



KZ3's Multiplayer (My judgments made from the Beta) has got to be the most hardcore team based multiplayer I've ever played. I've played quite a number of squad based multiplayer games and games that strongly encourage Team work unlike COD but KZ3 leaps beyond the ones I've played and is seriously really intense.

Hardcore in the sense that it's really intense and the feel of war KZ3's multiplayer gives.

 

Like if you try to be the long wolf and try to take on the opposite team, you'll fail hard. When you stick as a squad and everyone plays their roles and abilities well, that decides who wins the match.

I really loved Battlefield Bad Company 2 because before KZ3, BC2 was my favorite squad based multiplayer game but KZ3 it's greater in the sense that everything is intense. The intensity in the KZ3 matches I've played is unmatched by any other game. Never had a Online Multiplayer felt so intense and immersive to me.
