Killzone 2 demo won't have multiplayer

Sony: No Multiplayer mode in Killzone 2 Demo - Image 1 


Sad little update for you guys. You may have heard that the Killzone 2 demo will have multiplayer. Whoever told you this was wrong. Sony confirmed that this is bull. Now go cry in a corner. I already have my corner reserved to huddle in a fetal position in.

The confusion started this morning when PS3Hype reported that the demo will have multiplayer, but TheSixthAxis got Sony on the line to confirm it, or rather, to debunk it. But it's not like you have nothing to look forward to. The demo will still contain the first two sections of Corinth River, the first level, and will include the tutorial.

The demo will arrive February 5. Mark it on your calendars. With highlighters and neon signs.

# What of Japan's two KZ2 demos?dice_for_death_ 2009-02-04 07:16
I'm under the impression, that Japan might benefit from having one of their two Killzone 2 demos with an enabled multiplayer option. At the very least, I hope so.

wow who really believed that it would have MP?? lol lots of people would just keep playing the demo instead of buying the game... and well... it's just a demo so you can decide if you like the way it plays........ don't cry over this

Im more than happy to 'just' get the single player, I dont want to head online before Im ready - with COD(4+W@W) my ratio would have been so much higher if I'd been better at the beginning by going on the single player campaign ;p well not ths time!!

a STUPID theory. Bad companies demo was online and i still bought it, its not like you can do anything in an online demo anyways.

@allstar

you may not be a cheapskate but many people are, and there are those than cannot afford it i suppose, many will replay a demo over and over if they are happy with the restricted gameplay,

nonetheless.. glad to see you're not :P

# too bad they just dont...interdimention 2009-02-04 13:40
make it a public beta on the demo so everyone can see if they like it enough to warrent a purchase (which im sure woulda upped the sales ten fold). Why not? I mean they did it with socom, all they would have to do would be to cancel the beta after the full version ships to stores. I mean if a game company that never knows what its doing (/6) can do it, why cant other top notch companys? I mean good grief, why even make killzone 2 demo only obtainable through pre ordering it, which is what was going on for awhile. Demo's and beta's are meant to show you a part of the game that will get you to buy it, they should have all these kind of things for everyone to check out for free so they can then spend the cash on the final product. Advertising only goes so far, for the money they will rake in with killzone 2 they should offer the gamers more for their buck and bring in some of the others who are still not sure if they wanna tackle it or not.

# The JP demos are no use to US/Euro usersMaster Chef 2009-02-04 14:21
As stated here

The Japanese demos don't start until around March 3, for the SP demo, the MP demo is even later than that. Because the game isn't out there until April 23. So we'll have the game when they get the demos

Sony always take their time to update the store, for us UK (Euro) gamers we have to wait until the Americans get out of bed and get to work in order for it all to go live!
