Servers Have Now Closed

[ResiGamer_28]

Server closed at 1016 gmt+1, Mercs died the same time. Thanks to all who helped with the coop trophies over the last few weeks. RIP Killzone

[Good_Sir_Matt_II]

It was great seeing a community come together like this, it's an awesome platinum to have, you love to see it.

Rest in Peace, Killzone. We will never forget the time and fun we had with you and all the other players together. Hopefully the series can make a comeback one day in one way or the other.

[Pinselneo]

Rest in Peace. I hope there will be a new game in the near future.
Killzone was one of my first FPS games.

[XXIIlII]

Seeing the recent players tab with no plat is sad.

[Deadly_Ha_Ha]

Sucks man. This was a terrific launch title and made me so confident in the PS4. GG shit the bed with a three week time limit on this and Mercenary. For all that Killzone gave them they dicked these games hard in the end. Now we have robot zoo simulator.

R.I.P, Killzone franchise.

I have all MP trophies except for "Jack of all trades" and "Weapons Specialist" couldnt these 2 be done in botzone ? ??? I didnt have had the time as I was doing KZ Mercenary Online trophies... (Thank god I was lucky enough and finally got Aces High today ???) We players should somehow boycott/Protest Playstation to make the 90 day server closure mandatory ! ? or even better a clausule for devs so they need to make a final patch to made those trophies obtainable another way/offline. Even better solution would be if trophies for MP would be separate lists from now on... ?

Offline botzone doesn't count for anything unfortunately . Whilst I do agree with you on every count, the sad fact is that trophy/achievement hunters only make up a tiny fraction of a fraction of the total user base for any given console so any threats of protests or legal action will be laughed at and ignored by the developers. Over the next year or 2, a lot more PS3 and early PS4/Vita games are going to lose their servers due to spiralling server maintenance costs (caused by out of control inflation and the impending recession) and ever decreasing player bases so prioritise your remaining online trophies over everything else, before it's too late.

You played Shadow Fall in 2014 and didn't even finished campain. You have some MP trophies from 2015. You had a lot of time just didn't like game much, right? You had 20+ plats back then so you were trophy hunting.

You probably would never come back to it if you didn't have to.

Not in multiplayer focused game.

In games like mad max? Sure.

I played Killzone's campain and oh boy I really hope campain wasn't their focus.

Multiplayer trophies have invisible timer on them by design and it's ok in MP focused games.

Sad times ? truly a shame they didn't extend the notice period, especially as they happened to schedule it amongst other shutdowns.

Killzone 3 had a separate trophy list just for the online trophies. With a platinum. Last minute procrastinators STILL complained when servers shut down because they “didn’t have enough time”.. even tho a longer server closure notice was provided. It’s always somebody else’s fault ?

[UrRyAnn]

Managed to finish Shadow fall multiplayer last week. Was fun to boost.

Another era draws to a close. I have had some excellent times with the Killzone series and am truly saddened to see it end. I dearly wish I had a Vita for Mercenaries but I have to settle for the for 4 games I was able to play and 100%. Maybe one day we will get a reboot so we can return to Vetka and Helgan to kick some Helghast butt!

[Conker]

Rip killzone, got both games online done so im happy about that, hopefully Killzone appears again one day

Here we go again

I didn't bother when I saw they were closing down the servers soon. Had Killzone Shadowfall in my library for four or five years now, but didn't start it up because so many other games kept coming out. I may actually start it up later just to play the campaign, if it's worth experiencing.

It's an enjoyable campaign that you get into when you're playing it but that you completely forget about once your finished

That was actually an entirely separate game/purchase. Much like how shadow falls intercept mode has a standalone version. The base killzone 3 list still had multiplayer trophies.

Not sure if I am reading your post correctly, but sounds like you stated that KZ3 do not have MP trophies and has a separate "list" with MP trophies only which is "a bit" misleading (unless only wording was a bit unfortunate).
 

Killzone 3 Multiplayer has indeed only MP trophies, but this is like "standalone" title besides "normal" Killzone 3.
Similar like with Killzone Shadow Fall and its standalone DLC Killzone Shadow Fall Intercept.

 

Edit: Damn those Ninjas! ;).

I know KZ3 had 2 lists.. 1 with base game + mp trophies and another list with just mp only trophies 

 

it was really to highlight that even if a list had mp trophies only (as the person I quoted suggested) procrastinators will still bitch and blame someone else when they don’t get the trophies before servers close

There are a few online non-DLC trophies in Killzone 3 but most online trophies are DLC related.

Sad to see it go. Shadow Fall was the game I picked up on PS4 launch day. It was the first time I bought a console brand new day one. Unfortunately I lived where we couldn't get internet at the time after moving out on my own so I never got around to get the MP trophies but I always intended to go back and finish it. I reconnected with a buddy of mine who also wanted to get the trophies done so we spent the last week grinding them out. I'll go finish up the SP some other day. Glad I am not locked out of the platinum though.
