Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

What I can't understand is why not just have an option for unranked games, with all the weapons and classes unlocked.

I guarantee that if we had unranked games where everything was unlocked, there'd be some decent games going with loads of banter.

Everyone could join in and not be frustrated, or be at a disadvantage due to rank, lack of time or ability.

And there would still be ranked for those who are happy playing the game as it is.

Exactly, and if that's their bag then fair enough.

But I don't want to play with those people.

So I'd like the option of playing with like minded people.

It's like a footie game, you play ranked and it's anything to win, everyond just runs about trying to do "The gay pass" across the six yard box.

In unranked people try and mix it up as it don't matter if you win or lose.

Infact it doesn't matter if you win or lose in ranked, it's only a game

Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

I'd like some variations on game modes. Assassination games where you don't respawn until the end of the round for example so people have to be extra careful and work as a team even more so they can kill/defend the target.

More maps would be nice, love the ones we have but always good to have more.

Number 1 requirement though for me would be a party system of some sort so a group can get together on one team and then take on the world of randoms.

Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

Agree with Jay. Everything unlocked and unranked games would be good. I'd like the bot's back aswell to do unranked games. There would be no problems with not enough people playing. Plus as the bot's are quite good (they spanked me a good few times) it would also be good practice for clans or even just some good fun to have all your mates on one team and the bot's on the other. I'd like a game mode similar to what robot said too. Where when you've been killed your out of that round. (Last man standing or summit like that) i'll have a think about dlc but more ranks and maybe more weapons would be nice.

Or some sort of 'Battle Arena', a gladiator duel with 1 weapon and/or even just 1 clip of ammo when the bullets are gone, its down to pistol whipping only (a bit like the melee matches already)

Definately agree about the option of when you're dead, that's it for the current round

Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

Also a free for all would be good, I'm sure they could implement spawing all over the map, maybe even if it was just 16 player free for all.

They could also then have a dead room where we can spectate those who are still playing, once we've died.

Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

I think in theory they could easily implement the bot's in again. Why not open skirmish mode up for your friends to join. Problem solved. Non ranked games and your mates in. GG if your reading this. I will only be able to take your job offer on a temporary basis. We'll see how you progress under my guidance then i'll commit if your good enough.

Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

I would like a party system like COD and Halo have. It's really a pain to have non-clan matches with your clan.

Hi guys, sorry for the lack of communication. Really have had zero time for the community this week. Right now working on bringing www.killzone.com back better than ever. Also working on the next patch which will include a number of fixes including the return of the bots and the option to play unranked games. Last working on a server update as well while trying to hunt down some of these network errors people are having. Its all ’go’ here at the moment again, but fret not. I will post the full list of fixes when i can be sure it is final. Some day the crazy times will end and I’ll be able to spend more time with you beautiful people again. Right now the above things take priority, I hope you understand. Back soon.
I’ll post the list of fixes and updates in here. The patch wont be out this week unfortunately as we need to test it thoroughly and make sure it does more good than bad. I’m sure you understand.

And it's mum not mom, unless your american, but your location is birmz meaning birmingham, but you're trying to be gangster.

How long you been a keyboard warrior for?

Just noticed you were born in 1988, that's the year me and your mum first got together, I've missed you son.

Re: What ideas do you have for improving the multiplayer

I think I would adjust the spawn grenade ability the tactician has. That was by far the easiest ribbon for me to obtain and just encourages spawn camping and battles focused in specific areas.

Instead of having a 2 minute timer on them, they should stay permanently, but disappear after a set amount of people have passed through (not many, probably between 3 and 5). I think this would make play more strategic, so instead of having waves of people piling into an area, use of them would be more reserved and considered.

I agree also with the other earlier points made about all weapons being available to all on unranked matches.

More details in the server browser. I want to know exactly what i am getting into. Right now its abit of trial and error.

I like Friendly fire games so its hard finding them.

I think the air bots are fine. Not everyone should be getting the unlocks. If anything the ranking and unlock requirments in this game are too generous.
