Has anyone noticed that there's barely any information on the actual game (i.e. new features, game modes, gameplay improvements, etc). All I've seen is just videos, videos, and videos that show the graphics off. I can't even find anything on wikipedia. What gives?

Fail. The gameplay videos, by their very nature, show the gameplay. That's why they're called "GAMEplay videos."

Yes, it's a first person shooter. But what modes are there? what features? how does the game differ from past Killzones?

There is plenty of gameplay out. It just doesn't look that exciting.

Well it's gonna have the same stellar gameplay and story from the past iterations and right now it looks better than anything on X1 or PC, so that's quite an achievement since a $2000 PC should at least have better graphics than a $400 console but nope. And on top of that, the game is only in beta right now, it's gonna look even better when it comes out.

there have actually been quite a few videos released showing the gameplay. both with developer interviews and shaky cam floor vids at gaming conventions.

I'd recommend you visit Gamersyde and search YouTube a little.

Look harder

But KZ isn't doing much that either hasn't been done by others or by itself previously. It's sticking to its guns (figuratively, no pun intended).

I get the videos. What I want is information on the game. Can you explain the different modes, features, improvements? How is it different from the last one?

I dug up some news on the story. Spoiler alert.

The main character (joe) has to poop real bad. There are no toilets in that big city just bathrooms with 3 seashells in them. Rage shooting spree erupts. End of story.

All I have seen is just the random videos of people moving around and shooting. Usually for games you can find a wiki or a faq page that goes in depth on the actual game modes, features, etc.

I think he was talking about real GAME INFO. Like the story, the modes, what kind of multiplay games will there be, the weapons and other gear, etc...There's no detailed information. It really should be on Sony's official playstation site.

Let's see what I can find.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killzone:_Shadow_Fall

This blog seems to answer a lot of detail questions about the game. Give that a read mrintro

I liked the atmosphere and design of the older games being these big military campaigns waged by large planetary forces... Shadow Fall is like a Rainbow 6 of Killzone games, the recon gear I think looks to overpower players, I hate the gun designs as well, if I get a PS4 I'll try keeping an open mind since I'd probably get it just because it's the default exclusive. Compared to Resistance Fall of Man though this looks like a much much better launch exclusive than that heap of shit.

You're a sad troll, instead of giving valid criticism you call me ignorant, do you know why that is? Because you know that there's no way of proving me wrong, so you resort to childish insults, good job, you made yourself look like a 5 year old.

I have a challenge for you, show me a game that runs at 1080p/60FPS on a $400 PC and looks better than Shadow Fall, I dare you dirty hermit.

I don't need to. Everybody already sees you are a clueless idiot. Just like I don't need to show you a game on a $400 PC. Why, because we aren't limited to $400 hardware. Again, thanks for making me laugh at your ignorance.

There actually have been a lot of game play details; it's just been overshadowed on this forum by the graphics threads on the game. The single-player mode is going to be a lot more open, and there's a little bot that flys around with you and does certain things to help you out. As for the multi-player, here are specific details on it:

I'm pretty sure the owl wasn't in Killzone 3, neither were the open environments. I bet everyone trying to shit on Killzone in this thread will be buying Battlefield and COD. Why is it that Killzone has to be different yet other shooters get a free pass.

9/10, story of the next generation. Would be 10/10 but it doesn't explore same-sex relationships enough so I can't completely relate to the characters.

The single player looks promising but the multiplayer looks horrible. And after seeing the USA VS, Europe contest in BF4 today, no one alive will be playing Killzone after they finish the single player.

How does COD differ from the last COD,how does Halo differ from the last Halo,how does Battlefield differ from the last Battlefield?

Sounds like you havent done much research.

Killzone Shadow Fall has new level designs which are more open than before.Multiple objectives within levels.It has the 'Owl',which has lots of uses,including instant zip lines.

It also looks amazing and is 1080p and 60fps.

I am going to assume by the wrestling Gif his idea of a stellar storyline is somewhat easier to achieve than our idea of a stellar storyline.

As for gameplay...Its killzone. Rinse and repeat. Nothing horrible but nothing game changing either.
