What we saw in the MLB days from user feedback, tests, etc, was that a one frame (33ms) difference between input and visuals was not noticeable, but a two frame difference was noticeable and we started getting complaints about lag in batting.

Nope, hasn't frozen at all. Only a slight hitch when loading a new area otherwise a very solid frame rate on my end.
You have the retail version?
The demo is the review build and the game went gold on the 22nd of January. I'm expecting there is probably no change from the demo to the retail.

Hmmm...thanks for the response. Yeah, I get those loading hitches too, but its frozen my ps3 at least 4 times requiring me to reboot the system. And each time it froze at a different place in the demo...perhaps its an issue with my ps3 (hopefully not).

During the dropship landing sequence there's a ship that blows up, then a bunch of bodies from the ensuing explosion collide with Alpha Squads landing craft.
I dont know whether its a delay in animation or dropped frames, but something just doesnt seem right with that sequence, particularly the moment just before the debris expands from the blown ship.
Anyone else notice that?

Try circle-strafing and keeping your sights on a fixed point or object. It's impossible, and it's due to the laggy input. In other games, it would be a dealbreaker, but the pacing of KZ2 seems to make it not such a big deal, because you'll be doing most of your shooting while stationary or behind cover. If it were more run'n'gun like CoD or Halo, the control lag would completely ruin it. Still, I hope they'll issue a patch to fix it, because I don't know if I'll be able to enjoy MP if I can't aim quickly and precisely.
It shows Sev's animation via his shadow.
Yeah, it's very well done.
Also while it's not very apparent in this gif due to moving shadow, the FPS camera is excellent during jumping and running too.
KZ1 on the PS2 had a very similar heavy feel.
If it was a delay caused by the rendering/processing then you should be able to look up into a low detail area like the sky and spin around a lot quicker!

I have a retail version. Yes. There is no input lag - I have tested it. I will compare with the demo later.
Done it - and I can do it. So once again - it's a non-issue in retail.
Which is exactly what you get.
Sony.
I have zero response lag. I will try with upped sensitivity (which is how I play the game anyway.)
But you must remember this - there is NO connection between this response lag issue and the "weight" of the controls. None. In the build I have, it's both responsive AND weighty.
Of course I will test the demo to see if there is a difference, if not, then it's simply a bug that occurs for some and not for others.

I've been playing Counter Strike since 2001. and i've played every major FPS game that was released since than. I know when my bullets should miss the target and you can clearly see the auto aim in CoD4. It's not like in Resistance 2, where your gun actually follows the target, but it's still there and it's extremely noticable.
It isn't really a lock on, but it's a subtle movement when your aiming close to target, but not actually on the target.
That depends on your skill. I've been playing through the campaign and i have no problems whatsoever with killing enemies on hardest available difficulty on the 1st playthrough (Hard, just below the Elite, which you unlock when you complete the game). For me, it was really easy to adapt, although i played a lot of Call of Duty 4 and Resistance 2. It took me maybe 2 hours to start shooting like i'm supposed to.
I usually win 90+% of all FFA matches i play in CoD4, my killratio is 2+ stoned, not stoned its allmost double that. I ve played all the biggest console fps games this generation.
Out of all of the fps games ive played, PDZ shows the exact same aiming characteristica.
There is slight sticky aim in CoD4 when your close to a target.
Indeed.
Still, you tried to portray COD4 as a game where people headshot you all the time because of autoaim, this is hardly the case, seeing how bad 90% of the people that play CoD4 is, the autoaim has nothing to do with people dying so much and aim on CoD4 players in general is terrible.
No lag and accurate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUhuiJvBgaI
1. lol the guy in the youtube video is not that accurate, i can do that in KZ2, and i would call that being unaccurate.
2. Its apparent that he is clearly overcompensating when aiming on many occasions, most often when in ironsights mode, which is my experience aswell. This seems more like KZ2 aiming system that is causing this overcompensation (because of the acceleration thingy) and not him being bad. He is also playing on default settings, and everybody keeps saying its most noticable on max.
3. Ridiculous to try to disprove the amounts of people that are complaining about the controls by showing this video. This video just shows some average guy playing a game, its compeltely impossible to determine if there is "lag" in the controlls or anything else based on this video alone.

I have played through several times now and have noticed no lag at all... The only drops in the frame rate I encountered were during loading and on the bit where you get a boost up from your mate.
O.K. Oste. That's fine.
But how about this: there is no lag in the retail game.
And what you're talking about is NOT lag, but the weight of the controls. They are two different things.

Killzone 2 review 9,5. It also has a few videos of the menu's, showing all your options custom games, and statistics. You can seperately turn off any weapon, badge, class, maps, and gamemodes. And for ranked you can choose servers.
All and all it seems to have everything you need for a decent clanwar.
