i knew i saved some money in my wallet for something :). now if we could only get some more badges that would be awesome. the ones we have now are getting kind of old lol.
new maps for free?! THANK YOU!!! Time to start playing KZ2 again!!!
Not sure about the free part, dude. The other map packs have been paid after all. Both map pack 1 + 2 were US$ 5.99 so this'll probably have the same price. :(
Yeah, they probably will cost $5.99 like the others, but in my humble opinion, it's been worth it. I wasn't a huge fan Steel and Titanium, but they were still good. Flash and Thunder was awesome. The maps are very large, and some of the new maps have been interactive. I personally say they're worth $5.99, but I'm a big fan of the game, so my opinion is probably a bit biased:-)
got a little too excited there. guerrilla to give out free stuff? not happening.
Who in the hell do you think you are? first releasing a map pack a couple months ago and another a little while ago and now THIS a FKN user/consumer requested patch and another map pack?! cmon what the hecks wrong with you?....supporting your consumers and listening to the community tying to make a good game great.
It all looks good, but the best part is that they're fixing the super-bot ridiculousness.
I love the smell of Cordite...You know that sulfery smell.
When Killzone Liberation came out, they added an entire full free Chapter that continued the story, as well as adding Infrastructure support, for free.
They just gotta make some money with DLC, like everyone else.
No mention of a bug fix for the campaign freezing during the Tharsis stage. A number of people can't finish the game so why should we even invest in add-ons? Come on guys, get your game to work for everyone first.
i think killzone 2 is the best maintained game on the PS3. they patch it and put out DLC pretty fast.
