Killzone developer mentions co-op DLC

I agree, but doesn't after thoughts seem less seamless to you? For me after thoughts like Trophies and other things seem kind of lack luster.

I really wish they would have just added it from the beginning

seem less seamless

haha

as long as its free..

u think?

i visited the killzone forum and they have developers posting and aswering questions...
i never get in there before but it seems that they even organize events for their community..

like.. kill the developer or something like that..


i though it was really cool of them

true i think if they do have co op it will be online, split screen will be too much for the ps3 to handle.

Rohan is actually right. The game uses most of the PS3's known power, they said they had to adjust the visuals in multiplayer to keep the framerate up. They also said that splitscreen couldn't be done while keeping things looking beautiful (in more than one article).

It's not a knock against the PS3, it's a testament to the graphical orgy that they've put together using every trick they could find.

Agreed, this dropped off my buy list as soon as i realized it no longer had co-op. I just prefer co-op in shooters anymore. If I can't play through with a friend, I don't have a lot of interest in the genre.

If they patch it with campaign co-op, or a seriously good co-op mode, I'll pick it up immediately.

I'm solely buying this game for the Competitive Multiplayer!

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!

wow, that is fantastic. sorry happy man, i will be willing to pay all copyright infringements of your name

I soo agree, co-op would be amazing! Just at least playing against bots would do me. I usually have friends over to play fps's but rarely do the ones i buy have co-op which sucks, but i Hope, HOPE this will have it.

Because it means the Playstation has to render everything on the screen twice...

XiLER - thanks for the comment. Yes, I can see it in that case, but I imagine most co-op is done via the network, not split screen? Maybe I am wrong...

Actually most co-op is split-screen, or at least that's what people expect. They could have cheaped out like RE5 does and not render a widescreen image for EITHER player in co-op, but that sucks and Guerrilla knows it.

Network code is negligible, a single SPU can probably handle that all by itself. Rendering everything on the screen twice (when every single pixel has blur, physics, particle fountains, etc.) is very expensive, computationally.

you mean 8...

Hate to disagree with you on that but if that is truly how you fell then don't go passed the PS2 because the future is going to hurt. How about if you didn't have DLC they would just churn out a new game every year that is a marginal upgrade over the previous model like oh I don't know Madden or COD? 9.99 is much better than 59.99 when my bank account is concerned.

As far as co-op good to see it's coming though I will most likely never use it at least the people who complain just to have some reason to hate this game will be able to shut up now, and those who really did want it will be happy to have it.

Why is it automatically assumed that DLC = incomplete game with people like you? Take the tinfoil hat off - it's content that didn't make the release date.

I wouldn't say DLC is ALL bad, but so far this generation it is becoming more and more difficult to argue against that case.

Criterion seems to be one of the very few that managed DLC properly. As I recall, they didn't even have the 'Restart Race' option until the fourth patch, something that is expected to be in almost every racing game.

DLC inspires laziness, and the thousands of retarded gamers that eat some of this shit up like candy only encourage the problem (I'm looking at you EA and Skate 2).

It doesnt mean you'd get more if they didnt offer DLC, it means they'd just stop working on the project and you'd get sod all new till the next add-on pack or full title. People never used to complain about buying update packs for games a few years ago, but apparently because they release smaller packs for smaller sums of money, it means they're stealing content you would have got for free?

Also, considering it was delayed from Sept to Feb, your saying its a good idea instead to wait what... 3-4 months for maybe 4 MP maps so they're free? You must be popular!

Only DLC ive purchased was Monsters Encore & LBP MGS pack, so im far from being someone thats happy to throw money at something cos its there, but im not stupid enough to think that any ADDITIONAL work they do after the project should be free, its a seperate project, and doesnt mean they could and should have included it with the original. If what's offered to begin with is reasonable, then i cant see the problem. They've sold a complete product, now they're offering additionals, your not getting a half-arsed item and paying to make it full.

I agree with some of the sentiment about DLC, the vast majority of it disgusts me, but then theres proper attempts that are worth peoples money, if you want them.

This is a crap argument. You can't label all DLC as content that should have been released from the start. DLC is smaller versions of what PC games have gotten for years - expansion paks. Sometimes it is unwarranted, like Mega Man 9's DLC. Little Big Planet is nickel and diming for costumes, but guess what? It's not content that should have been there, meaning LBP is a complete package without the DLC. If you want extra costumes, you have the option.

The best example: Crash Commando. That game (2.5D multiplayer shooter) begs for DLC. The game has insane amounts of value for the ten bucks that it costs. There is absolutely no way that future DLC for that game is a cancer. It's a complete package deal, multiple modes, decent maps, great online capability, but I would not think twice about paying another five bucks for a map pack. It's extra content, and you don't have to buy it, so get over it dude.

So apparently Burnout is incomplete when it shipped without a delorean... over a year ago.

That whole game is DLC done right.

I agree that R2 should have had a coop campaign mode, but Uncharted is ment to be played alone and I prefer it that way.
