Anybody else find it funny that when you load up the demo, it asks you to tweak the in-game brightness setting to get the helghast logo to appear? Must be a bug or something because I never saw it no matter what brightness setting I picked. I just thought it was funny that it's like "adjust the screen until the logo is visible", but then it's always just a black box.

It's like a sick joke from GG.

 

 ???  Your screen is TOO dark! You have to adjust the brightness/contrast settings of your TV, you should see the Helghast logo inside the black box but just a little, almost black but not quite. The gamma option in KZ2 tells you to adjust it until the logo is "barely" visible, not just "visible". If you can't see it at all, it means your TV brightness/contrast is set too dark. I have my screen proffesionally calibrated and I didn't have to touch the setting, it was exactly the level of brightness the option was aiming for.



Like I said, I'm going to wait till later on when I can play it on a different (better quality) TV.



@Paladin Also take note:

Go to your PS3 Display settings / RGB Full Range option, it should be set to "Limited" if you choose "Full" it will most certainly give you an unnatural constrast level (and everything will look darker). You should set it on Limited then calibrate your TV brightness/contrast accordingly. Then you could try setting the option on Full and see how that works, sometimes the option is good for some movies and games, but I wouldn't recommend it, certainly not for dark movies/games like Resident Evil or Killzone 2.

i liek the feel of it a bit more but not its close up aim.

 

 



I like the sound it makes and I like the improved ironsights it has. I tried to use it in the beta, but the ironsights didn't have that X shape to help line your shots, you just had that center piece. The helghast rocket launcher's sights were fixed as well, adding that X shape which wasn't there in the beta.

Then on the flip side, the ISA rifle's dot sights have been fixed as well. The dot had this annoying habit of fading away when you were looking at smoke. Like if it were layers in photoshop, the dot layer was behind the smoke layer.
