Killzone Shadow Fall Weekend Roundup

By Victor Zuylen on 07/02/2014 6:15:59 PM

It’s Friday, and that can only mean one thing: it’s time for another Weekend Roundup! And a new Weekend Challenge, of course. So, two things – a Weekend Roundup and a Weekend Challenge. And new featured Warzones. So that’s three things. Okay, look, it's Friday, let’s just get on with it.

Weekend Challenge #4: Frag Frenzy
Sure, you could watch the Olympics this weekend… but then you’d miss out on another awesome Weekend Challenge! This time the theme is ‘Frag Frenzy’ – from 23:59 GMT today until midnight, 0:00 GMT on Sunday, your goal is to get the most kills per hour with the basic frag grenade. For this Weekend Challenge you can play on any public Warzone. Check the forum thread for more information.

Featured Warzones
Try out this fresh batch of Warzones created by our community! You can compete in the Weekend Challenge on most of them.

Patch 1.09 with Clan Support is Out
Following last week’s clan management update to the website, patch 1.09 adds support for in-game clan tags and clan-to-party invitations. In addition, this patch introduces additional checkpoint saves throughout the campaign, adds a 30fps lock to the campaign mode, fixes an exploit for the VC15 Judaz shotgun pistol with flashlight, and more. You can consult the full patch notes here.

Music Production Behind The Scenes Video
In our new behind-the-scenes look at the production of Killzone Shadow Fall’s soundtrack, Lead Audio Designer Lewis explains how internationally renowned musicians Tyler Bates and Lorn each provided half of the game world with a separate and uniquely atmospheric musical identity. Check it out:

A mournful audio log found in Killzone Shadow Fall's campaign describes the Helghan Terracide from the perspective of a Helghast civilian who miraculously survived the destruction.

More audio clips from the game will be coming to our SoundCloud page soon.

Meet the @TacticalOwl on Twitter
A spinoff of an offshoot of a side project we’re currently working on, the @TacticalOwl is an automated Twitter account that, much like the in-game Tactical Owl, can respond to your commands – currently, it allows you to get stats on players, compare them, and read Helghast comics. To get started, tweet “@TacticalOwl help” for an overview of commands. Please note the @TacticalOwl is still in alpha, so it can break at any time…
