Mass Effect 2 can go suck balls.

Okay I'm working on a Killzone run and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions. I have the first mission recorded at 20 mins even thogh I think that I can go sub 20. this will be a Templar run as I like him the best.

DMC3,ZOE2 and Xenosaga 2.  Am I crazy?

First mission 20 mins??? Wow, that game was longer than I remember. Anyway, go for headshots, rush when you can, use your grenades wisely and don´t get lost in any of the misisons. With good gameplay this might be a good run with lots of humor. For example:

I shot one pistol round against the enemies. There were 6 of them and they all jumped behind cover and shouted: "Taking heavy fire! Retreat!". Then I changed to my machine gun and started shooting. The enemies jumped and rushed at me shouting: "Kill him!"

That happened MANY times when I borrowed the game from my friend.

Im working on going sub 17 i made a few slight navigation problems and in the beggining the enemys dont advance quikly enough but if I am lucky the next try will go well. The one thing about this game is it requires alot of luck.

Killzone is a hard game (for me at least), so I wish you the best of luck with it.

I bought, though never beat Killzone. I still pop it in every now and then, but then I'm only reminded of why I still haven't beat it; the level I'm on is way tougher than it ought to be. And the sniper aiming sucks. Man I hate that thing.

On the other hand, multiplayer is awesome. Anyhow, while I don't actually have any tips for you, you do have my full attention with this run.

So are you going Segmented?

If not, watch out for the bug before the dockyards. There's a beach level where you're supposed to run up to some friendlies and help them defend against a wave or two of baddies that arrive via landing craft (it's the final one of these types of areas at the very end of the beach). I found out that if you hang back and don't actually ever enter the defense area, but just pick off the nasties as they arrive (one grenade into each landing craft right as they spawn) when the time comes to move on the scripted events don't start.
I think you can fix this by entering the defense area first and then falling back to take on the landing craft as they arrive.

Yes, this is correct. It happened to me once when I played through it, had to restart from the last checkpoint.

Lol, that bug must be pretty common, because that happened to me, too. Also, is it just me, or do the bodies of dead enemies (on second thought, everyone that dies) ALWAYS glitch up and start twitching in weird ways? Not that it has anything to do with the gameplay, just an interesting and annoying graphical error... Anyway, have you planned out your paths yet? I wonder if it's allowed to switch characters throughout the stages, since you are given that choice? Are you gonna run through with only one character, or are you going to mix it up? Good luck on this! Hopefully you can make this look good, cuz I can't get over how ridiculous it was to be firing straight at an enemy and be missing 90% of the freaking time. Oh well, have fun with it and happy Helghast hunting!

And on top of that the enemies seem to hit you always.

I think you should use the girl because of her sniping pistol (100 times better than sniper) is pretty handy in some parts.

Yeah, Luger's secondary fire for her rifle is a single shot that is more accurate, and if you get a headshot it's an instant kill. It was a pain during the last fight, though, I wish I had gone in there as Rico. His would have been soooo much easier.

On that last fight, I went in as Luger. I hid behind a column and 1-hit-killed the enemies as they came in, then when I went up to the room where the final boss is, he was crouching on a catwalk just inside the final room and I was able to snipe at it from the stairs outside without ever entering. Went down quick that way.

I could see where choosing different characters could be helpful, since some of the levels have slightly different routes based on your character.

Im going to do a segmented run using only Templar. I may go back and do runs of other characters later but for now i will use Templar as he is a balanced character and also for the fact that I love th ISA Assault Rifle.

Iv'e got the 1st mission down to 18 minutes and I am happy with that now to just get mission 2 down that far.
Any weapon suggestions? It would be advantageous to get some weapon strategys for certain parts down.

I love YaBB 1G - SP1!

I rented killzone this week and it is a pretty hard game. I would say don't do anything stupid because if you run head on into tons of enemies they usually kill you. Other than that I can't think of anything else to say(the copy I rented is all scratched up so I can't get into level 4 because it freezes on the loading screen).
