The website stats hasn't worked for me for the past few days... Im guessing that it has something to do either with the problems the website is having, or with the 1, 3, 6 & 10% awards being given out...

Re: Killzone 2

*UPDATE*

So now i know what's wrong with the stats site...

http://killzone.com/kz/news.psml?kz_news_article=Q+and+A+With+Eric+Boltjes&kz_news_page=0

And because the site is working as it is right now, i'll just copy'n'paste

These are busy times at the Guerrilla Games HQ. Because after a many days of designing, developing, tweaking, testing, refining and polishing, Killzone 2 was finally launched last week. And after a short, but quite sweet celebration, we’re back at the office, processing tons of feedback, questions and complaints coming from our most dedicated fans. We sat down with Senior Online Game Designer Eric Boltjes (EBolt) to talk us through some of the main concerns of the community today.

Some dedicated players feel the top ranks of the game are too easy to achieve. Could you explain how the scoring/ranking-mechanism came about?
Ranks are only a third of the entire progression; ribbons and medals are the bigger part. These unlock secondary badge abilities and things like more starting ammunition, more grenades, improved sniper zoom etc.

There appears to be a problem with the honor ranks and the way they were reset on Sunday AND Monday. Could you give us a little insight into what went wrong?
Unfortunately not at this time. We are currently investigating this issue.

Apparently, people have been using bots to score points to rank up as quickly as possible. Surely, that can't be right?
We have disabled bots for online games for now with a hotfix and we are working on a proper solution as we speak. This basically means that bots will be back soon, but they’ll be in unranked games.

How come the site is slow/down and what is Guerrilla Games doing to fix it?
We simply have way more people visiting the website than anticipated! We are currently working on improving the website performance. This means we had to temporary shut down some functionality, like statistics, battle replays and clan-pages, but we’re working aournd the clock to get it all back online.

Does this also affect the statistics that are currently down? And what about previously gained stats? Are these saved anywhere or are they gone forever?
Don’t worry, all statistics are still being saved as they are shown in-game and will return on killzone.com as soon as we get our full functionality back online.

Why don’t we get answers to all our questions on the forum? It appears there’s a lot of useful feedback coming from the community.
Well, we try to be as active as possible but at the moment, there are so many threads and posts that we cannot reply to everyone. It’s a bit overwhelming, to be honest. And besides, we are also very busy actually working on fixing problems that are being posted. But rest assured, we are definitely reading and are doing everything we can to get all the right information to the right people!

Some players are getting weird error codes when they try to connect. Could you give us the translation of the most common error-messages?
There’s quite a lot of variety behind the different error messages, so my advice would be to post network errors on the killzone.com forums with as much details as possible. Posting your psn-name, time of error, what country you’re in and what you were doing before you got the error message really helps us a lot in pinpointing and solving errors.

A question about Team Talk. Why do we have to communicate in squads and proximity only?
We felt it was tactically/gameplay-wise more interesting to do it this way and specifically chose not to allow everyone to talk with everybody. It is more realistic and we felt it created a quite cool dynamic in the game.

Do you have any other future updates and improvements planned?
We are working on patches and downloadable content but we cannot give any specifics at this time.

What should people do if they have questions or comments?
Keep us posted through the forum and add as much detail as possible! As I said, we might not be able to reply in every topic, but we sure are listening in our quest to make the game even better.

Eric, thanks for you time! One final question though.

After all these initial comments, questions and feedback, you still think it's fun to produce a high profile title like Killzone 2?
Are you kidding me? This is the best job in the world! :)

Re: Killzone 2

Re: Killzone 2

^^

I wasn't sure wtf was up, until i found that...

I gotta say that Guerilla has so far done outstanding job keeping the community up to date...

[TheEn|gma]

Re: Killzone 2

Yeah for sure Guerilla have come on leaps and bounds when you look back at the original Killzone which was great for a niche market, with KZ2 they've really given PS3 FPS lovers a game to unite under and so far they've been really supportive and kept the community up to date.

Their working on Patches/DLC too :awes

Re: Killzone 2

Killzone.com doesn't even work for me...

"M503 Error:
Killzone Command Center Unavailable
Communications with the Command Center are down! Our technicians are working around the clock to re-establish contact. This may be the result of a Helghast attack, or the fact that the website has recently received a complete overhaul. We apologize for the inconvenience and will have the Killzone Command Center back online as soon as possible."

Too high traffic once again... :|:
