I'm down. Another new map pack, eh? Hopefully they will bundle the two as a cheaper download.

For the record, I loved the original controls. But it's good too see there's an option now for those whiney "This isn't like Call of Duty 4" bitches.

The game still feels like Killzone and the control still feels like you're guy has weight, but the control is alot more precise. They would of kept alot of people if the controls felt like this at launch.

Just beat Resistance 2 and loved it. Thinking about giving Killzone another shot.

 

[Twigg4075]

It doesn't look like they bundled the two map packs for a discount. Boo.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

I already traded the game in :redface:

 

[Point Blank]

How are the new maps?

 

[Bomberooski]

I already traded the game in :redface:

How much did you get for it?

 

[JOHNNYTHECLOWN]

game has been long gone from my shelf... i really liked it and loved the different roles you could use online but online rounds are too long and sometimes felt like i was marchin miles tot he action if spawn grenades ran out

 

[Bomberooski]

Traded it in. Picked up inFAMOUS

 

[QuietStorm]

Im thinking about trading it in as well. I like the game, but I can never find anybody to play with. Plus the bots online has ruin the game for me. Their everywhere and it makes the games to frantic. The new maps are nice though.

 

[Twigg4075]

I was really disappointed that they didn't bundle the two maps together for a discount. They've always done that with Warhawk.

 

[red33]

the thing about this game i hated was the online play was ruined IMO unless you played with a bunch of friends or something. its not fun to have a sht load of spawn poitns right around an objecive and all you see are guys spawing with RL and just blasting and dying over and over again. The maps had too many choke points where all you had was mass killing.

Im glad they toend down the assault class cuz tht class was cheesy as hell, you gte more ammo and more speed wtf.

 

[Herm]

I didnt like all the bots and that shapeshifter crap where the guy looked like he was on my team until i shot back. That and like quietstorm said after the first two weeks i could never find anyone i knew on to play it, so yeah I traded it for SF4 then i sold that.

 

[Twigg4075]

I still have it and I'm down to play anytime. I don't have the new maps though.
