Impressive Killzone 2 destructibility footage

Outside of its immaculate texture work, character models, and animations, Killzone 2 features an incredibly realistic destructibility engine allowing users to decimate specific objects and structures, watching them crumble into ruins.

In this latest line of footage, the player shows off some of the destructibility seen in the online multiplayer beta, shooting everything from pipes to hurling a grenade and razing the side of a support pillar. Watch as chunks of concrete collapse to the ground and red-hot bullet holes penetrate the ground floor, spitting up debris.

Killzone 2 is set for release exclusively on PlayStation 3 in February 2009.

    You know what would have been good?

    The ability to destroy the lights to add to a tactical advantage. Of course, this would mean the characters would hav eto have nightvision of some discription, or Heghast have night vision & humans see the Helghast eyes..lolol.

    But i suppose unless night vision of some sort was incorporated it would make the game infuriating. I just hate to see indestructable glass objects in a game..:p

    @GunTeng: that's brilliant.  Although I think it's too late to implement this,  that's a great idea for future FPSs.  Hopefully if that ever IS implemented, it isn't overused by players, otherwise we'd be playing a game in night vision.  I swear, that night vision section in COD4 really pissed me off.

     

    If I sound hypocritical right now... think of it more like ambivalence.  DX

    this game is looking good so far by the way @gun teng not a bad idea of the lights a lot of fps fail to use such ideas for games and personally not only do they make the game more tactical but fun as well.c ant wait to get killzone 2 already

    @2

    Thats really a great idea, i think it should be put into games

    Anyway i am so excited for this, its gonna rule  the 360. Maybe even better than MGS4? But its gonna be hard to top it.

    Wow! This game is looking to be a contender for best game of 2009.  The frame rate is awsome too. The way he was running and dropping any frame rate.....WOW

    Wow that's cool.

    @2: You mite be onto something there.

    @3: Really? You didn't like the night vision part of COD4?  I reckon that was the best part of the game.

    great game, i'm addicted to the beta.. the only complain is that your enemys can handle too much hits and its annoying sometimes ... but if not a 10 game maybe a 9.6 or more game

    The Beta is awesome(It is at least just as good as Resistance 2's online)

    Though with Resistance you have to take out so many enemys at once, and in killzone 2 enemies come at you alone or in pairs usually but they all feel deadly.

    My time is being monopolized by Killzone and Resistance(My friend was also very impressed by both)

    The destructability is the best I've ever seen. I really hope the game is long enough and the gameplay is better than the first, though.

    The controls look very very polished...the lowest over-all score I see KZ2 getting would be 8.9 and the highest being 9.5. Either way after 3 years in development, it's a sure fire hit that I can't wait to get my paws on!!!! lol

    this looks amazing! i never played the first one...will i be missing a big part of the story by not playing the killzone 1. and @2 thats a great idea about the lights. i like more tactical things like that than just blasting as fast as you can.

    the footage were he actually showed destruction was nice, but he barely showed any, shoot more things!@!!

    I'm also in the beta and I think the recoil on the assault rifle is beautiful. Also, there is an area in Salamun Market by where the helghast spawn that makes the player's shadow look perfect. psn id: gamesNmusic

    Well I have the beta, I can tell you this, I was holding a grenade, well its like a new aged grenade, Anywho. I didnt throw it fast enough and it exploded and i was by these pillers and well. My dude feel on the ground, and all the wall around me exploded, man its great. The Game for a beta Phase 2 is pretty dam good. No duck and cover for multiplayer, I can see why, there would be to much camping, anyway. I dont think I can say to much. Peace

    The shooting lights has been done before...Socom2 Enowapi terrorist base.

    Thats why I mentioned it. It adds so much more to the gameplay.

    if you want the lights to stay on, then you have to defend them..if you want the lights off then you have to try & turn them off. It opens up new tactics through out the area.

    Although Im sure many run & gun, shoot & be shot Noob-Blaster style gamers would complain. lol.
