that site you linked, prices are decent only because they have 20% off for games in November.

typical non discounted price for ps4 games is £50-55, that's way more expensive than $60 in US.


Can I ask how I do this? Sorry, a little bit a newbie with all this since I have never had PSN+ before. I have already created a Euro account where I already have prepaid 12 months PSN+. Should I create a NEW account with a different E-mail adress and my details as I lived in the US? i can then buy games and then transfer them to my other account or do I have to play them through my US account? Many thanks for a few pointers!

On topic: I have only passed the first level so far, will play more tonight but so far I am pleased with the action. Surprisingly challenging. Only downside so far is so-so vioce acting at times.

no, you create US account with US address etc, transfer funds to that account using pre-paid cards that you buy from amazon or other places (i think you can also use paypal but haven't tried that), and then you buy games with that US account. you can't transfer games from US to EU account.

Ok great, that sounds good. So if I want to play online with any games I have on my US account, I will have to fill this with PSN+ credit as well? So it's mostly for offline games people do this I assume.

Thanks again. Very Happy

THAT is impressive, I didn't realise it worked like that as well. I figured PSN+ was account-based and it meant that each account needed to have PSN+ in order to play online but this is even better and I guess Sony really is pushing "user friendly" rather than "anti consumer" Smile I still remember the 360 and how each account was individual, so even though I had a Gold account (at the time) my missus only had a Silver so she didn't get the benefits of Gold.

Got this for Christmas and while it looks great, it also still has the signature Bloom™ and unnecessarily exaggerated Motion-Hurr®, such a shame. Especially the bloom makes things look quite bad at times. Battlefield has nothing on this game when it comes to lens flares either, holy crap Laughing

And I actually wish they had just locked the fucker down to 30 FPS. Would be better than this annoying variation from 28-30 to 50 (at least that's what it looks like to me, can't remember what DigitalFoundry found).

That's what it looks like to me too. Doesn't seem there is any VSYNC at all to me.

Anyway, it's sadly a boredom.

Lens flares are in abundance, but overall I had quite a fun time with the single player experience. 8.5/10.

that said, the game´s difficulty is still quite a step up compared to all the cods and most other fps nowadays.

This is a completely under rated game. On mission 4 and loving it. Hated all Other KZ games too.

Don't quite understand the scores at this point...

Code:
Guerilla Games and Sony released yesterday a brand new update for Killzone: Shadow Fall, adding among other new stuff the ability to lock the framerate to 30 fps in the campaign mode. Since it was by far my biggest problem with the game since its release, I just had to encode a comparison video showing the difference it actually does. So there you have it, the two videos below are showing the same cut scene, but one with an horizontal split, the other vertical, so it's easier to spot the difference. Hopefully many other developers will follow this example, the difference might not be that easy to spot in this video, but it's a completely different visual experience for me!

lol at butthurt xbots Laughing when all their major games run at 720p, they try to troll a game that runs slightly below 1080p ONLY in multiplayer and ONLY at certain moments. Laughing

i finished this game in single player and it looks absolutely fantastic, truly a next gen experience. i know what the article talks about and yes multiplayer does looks tiny bit lower res than SP but who cares really. this is a LAUNCH title, it's already impressive achievement (runs on a console that is cheaper than my GPU alone). no one will remember this game in 6 months when newer and even more impressive games come out.

So I picked up where I left off and finished this.





Laughing

I'm sorry, but I have to take back some of my words. It looks great... half the time. The indoor areas are terrible. Truly, truly terrible. The texture quality in some places is just from KZ1. There's no excuse for most of the signs in the game not being legible. The levels are plenty small, there's no way they filled all 5 GB of RAM.

Aside from that, there were an awful lot of bullshit sequences in there, even long sequences where you're just taking a ride without a word being spoken. "Admire the view plz, we maek furst tech demo for PS4".

Unfortunately, had the levels been bigger, more freedom, more variety in weaponry, better AI - it would've been a more interesting game than Crysis 3. All the ingredients are there, they're just not fleshed out enough. Because the OWL is much more versatile than the damn Nanosuit is now. Doesn't help that the best bits were the prison escape and the mission with Echo after the first bit of credits.


And then there's the bugs Laughing

Oh my, I've laughed a lot at some of the shit that happened. Starts with Chapter 2, where I fell through the dropship 3 times (as in, the final getaway part of the chapter) before I decided to replace the entire section rather than just the last checkpoint. And that fixed it. The bit with Tyran also bugged out twice in a row, had to restart that entire section twice. His shield just wouldn't go down (yes, all his bots were gone and I fired 3 goddamn RPGs at him).

Then you've got the AI, which sometimes just kept running into rails, get into a crouch/stand-up loop or just move back and forth 30 cm. That's aside from the fact that they're deaf, but their damn red eyes apparently do see through cloth.

The best bit however was during the escape, where you encounter the first ATAC. I take that fucker out, now I have to deal with the infantry - who've got shields. "AHA!" I think, because I've still got one of those containers to drop on their head, let's see if I can make that work. Lure them there, mark it for Echo and yes it kills them! Well, 2 of them anyway. One of them runs straight through the container right at me. Fine, I take aim and....he just falls through the floor right in front of me. 4th guy was stuck on the corner of the container somehow


The AI in this game is quite embarrassing. We've seen some bad AI in recent years, but for a shooter of such profile, it's just embarassing Razz
