Absolutely fucking not. The hellghast armor already sticks out like a sore thumb despite being the most "similar". I refuse to let this game turn into a pseudo-Fortnite dumping grounds for Sony IPs

You will buy the Astro Bot GOTY memorial war bond and you will like it. Please wait pateintly while we also sell you the carcasses of other IPs we've done nothing with, like our Halloween special Bloodborne war bond.
It really feels like a lot of recent Play Station games have embarrassing easter eggs of franchises that were better than the games they're in.

It actually does not help that I cant even troll people by supporting the ISA becasue the ISA you play as in those games really ARE that fucking retarded so its why people like the Hellghast so much

It's funny because the Jin Roh armor they stole that concept from looks better in every way because it actually recognizes why the SS uniforms looked good in the first place. They're relatively tight fitting (especially down at your legs so your shoulders look broader) and make you look both athletic and threatening when you wear them. The Hellghast armor makes everybody that wears it look fat and short.

Thats just the killzone art style....its chunky which I dont hate but it looks like they can squat 600 pounds
 
I just want more black and yellow armour/weapons like the first game had instead of whatever 90% of stuff in 2 looks like

If they gave us armor color palettes I would just run black and yellow with any number of combinations 90% of the time. I most of the hellpod/exosuit customizations unlocked but never use them because I like the Helldiver colors. I guess they are going to add customizable attachments at some point(?) so color customization isn't far off.

Sorry, it has been a while since I played Killzone. How are the ISA that retarded again? Last thing I remember some IRA spy master wanted to use a super virus to kill all Helghans.

Makes sense considering Helghan is a planet with higher than normal gravity.

Thats Shadowfall, however I wouldnt say all of the ISA are retarded, I mean invading a planet on top of flying platforms is retarded but thats just to show military epic invasions.....I really hate one ISA character by the name of Rico he ruins everything, takes down the narrative in all of the games, and overall is just a disservice to the games aesthetics/world building as the main narratives of these games are dogshit.

The only good killzone game story wise is a PSvita game and that story is barely a thing you just play as a mercenary who gets screwed over by both sides.
 
Killzone is interesting in how it has a legit good realpolitik sci fi narrative, that's stapled to the back of a jarhead story.

The helgast colonists got invaded and driven off their home of Vekta[ by the ISA/earth forces and forced to live on a deathworld filled with lightening storms and giant spiders. This happened because they became a superpower that was eclipsing earth in power, trade and tariffs. The ISA are not the good guys, more like earth's attack dogs. They royally fucked the helgast over and hoped they'd die out and become irrelevant on a backwater mining colony. (Also used forced immigration from other colonys to make conditions so unbearable that the helgast had no choice to but to leave)

All of this is very interesting and the timeline is a very good read https://killzone.fandom.com/wiki/Timeline , but your following most of these games from the grunt ISA perspective. All of the good lore is background noise to the basic story of fighting gas mask mooks.

They overpromoted the heros from killzone 1 above their qualifications and thought it was a good idea to half ass an invasion without earth support and allow mass immigration of an enemy population back onto Vekta as part of some kind of liberal hearts and minds bullshit. (aged horrifyingly well ) Thing is, I do respect how the ISA's fuck ups have realistic outcomes. There is a legit war is hell vibe going throughout this series, I just dont think it's conveyed very well through the ISA perspective.


Timeline wise there's no way OG killzone is set in the helldivers universe. You could technically make hell divers 2 a prequel to the OG games, (I like the idea of the helgast forming a Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact with super earth) but the helgan are supposed to be in an age of prosperity by that calendar year. Personally Im just going by the super Robot Wars rule where everything exists together in a separate verse somehow.


Im wondering if they will use the black hole to work in crossover worlds or enemies separate from the main map.

There's still time. I don't know about the second free set (should be automatically acquired) but I think you've got two-four days to get the helmet and the rest.

I grinded for credits to get the rest of the package and Its pretty great. I particularly like the helgast machine gun even though it's light penetration. Lot of rounds of ammo.

The best way to grind I find is to join in a random level 1 game with two or more players already grinding and look around the map for yellow pods, two man bunkers and shipping crates lodged near buildings. Credits and metals are shared and kept even if you abort the match early.

Otherwise just drop 10 or 20 bucks to save a couple hours.
