Killzone 2 Game Guide & Walkthrough

 

Welcome all of you, keen to participate in the adventure created by Guerrilla Games - Killzone 2. Thanks to this guide you will get the primary facts about the main modes, a full solution, info about the Trophies and you will find all the items hidden by the creators.

Killzone 2 is the third instalment in the series, but to fully enjoy it and understand the plot you don't need to know the previous games. Below there is an overview of the scenario for those of you who want to enjoy one of the best looking game in history without getting to know all of the past events.

In Killzone 2 you will get into the shoes of the Alpha team sergeant, nickname Sev (Tomas Sevchenko). The action begins a couple of years after the Helghast attack on the main hero's home planet - Vecta. You can get to know these events in the first game, originally made for the PlayStation 2.

This time ISA (Interplanetary Strategic Alliance), the military forces designed to defend the colonies of UCN (United Colonial Nations) decided to take revenge on the invaders and attack planet Helghan, the capital of Helghasts. The main objective is to capture the enemy's charismatic leader, Visari, who lives in a palace in the capital of the county, Pyrrus.

Despite the preparations it turns out that the Helghast won't take them lightly and produced a powerful weapon capable of stopping the Vectan fleet. Sev and his team will be thrown right in the middle of the battlefield, on a road leading to discovering the secret behind the weapon.

Killzone 2 isn't an easy shooter and even on the lowest difficulty settings there are locations that a less experienced gamer will have to repeat several times because of dying. I would recommend Normal for people experienced with shooters and accustomed with playing using the PlayStation 3 controller. The highest difficulty setting is only available after finishing the game on any other.

You can't save your game at any moment. The game automatically saves after reaching a checkpoint - in most cases after completing a mission or reaching a new location. It's extremely important when it comes to secrets. If you find z suitcase with data or shoot down a Helghast symbol and quit the game without reaching the next checkpoint, it won't be saved.

The authors prepared a couple of predefined control schemes. So if a given one doesn't suit you, go to the menu and choose an alternative one. You can also adjust the sensitivity of the analog stick.

Although Killzone 2 is a typical FPS shooter, it offers something that we usually meet in Third Person Shooters. It's the ability to take cover and automatically duck if the cover isn't high enough to keep standing. It's a really important element of the game and it's used throughout the whole game, helping the player to survive. Unfortunately, no cover gives perfect protection from being shot. So it's very important to choose the path leading to the enemy wisely and not expose yourself. While being in cover you can also shoot enemy while slightly leaning out.

You will find some secrets in the game. Those are suitcases with intelligence data and Helghast symbols. If you manage to find them all, you will be given access to exclusive content on the game's website, www.killzone.com.

Maximum ammo capacity: 6

Description: Basic ISA soldier gun. It's quite powerful, but has a very small clip and it's quite slow.

 

Name: StA18 Pistol

Maximum ammo capacity: 12

Description: Helghast snipers equipment. Not as powerful as the M4, but its speed and clip size make it a better choice for fighting.

 

Name: M82 Machine-gun

Maximum ammo capacity: 256

Description: A basic ISA weapon. Not so fast, but quite accurate. It has a mounted sight, so it's easier to aim in zoom mode.

Maximum ammo capacity: 320

Description: A basic Helghast weapon. Similar to the M82, but without the sight.

Name: PM StA11

Maximum ammo capacity: 384

Description: Fast and very effective on small and medium distance machine gun. A great alternative for the slow M82 and StA52. A good, all-around weapon.

Name: StA14 Machine-gun

Maximum ammo capacity: 40

Description: It shoots single bullets, but two of those are enough to kill an enemy. It's great if you can aim well using the PS3 controller.

Name: M224 - A1 LKM

Maximum ammo capacity: 280

Description: = A powerful, sub-machine gun and a big clip. A great weapon for both small and big distances. Its biggest flaw is the long time needed to reload.

Name: VC32 Sniper Rifle

Name: M327 Grenade Launcher

Maximum ammo capacity: 12

Description: Not a very useful weapon, firing grenades into enemies. A direct hit causes an explosion, but in other cases the grenade just rolls forward hitting all obstacles, so the precision isn't all that great.

 

Name: VC21 Boltgun

Maximum ammo capacity: 20

Description: one shot from this baby, and you have a dead Helghast. Or to nail him to the wall, if you like. It's quite slow and you can only carry 20 bolts at one, but shooting from it gives lots of satisfaction and it's very spectacular.

 

Name: VC5 Energy Gun

Maximum ammo capacity: infinite

Description: Available only at the Tharsis Refinery. The VC5 using the energy that's collected there and after using up all the cylinders you just have to open the barrel for a couple of second for it to reload. A very useful gun, medium-ranged weapon. It shoots a constant energy ray, so you can hit multiple enemies without taking your finger off the trigger.

 

Name: StA3 LKM

When you will be close to the bridge, a soldier holding a rocket launcher should be killed right before your eyes. Pick it up and shoot at the bridge, aiming at the yellow packages. You can also destroy the bridge without the help of the launcher, using a normal gun. Look out for the rifleman on the left. On lower difficulty settings you can kill them all, but on higher ones you should just ignore them and run to the beach as fast as you can.

Additional missions:

Protect a beach

On the beach, hide behind one of the concrete barriers and throw grenades at the Helghast coming out of their transporters. Shoot the rest. There are some exploding barrels at the beach; they're useful when it comes to eliminating the foes.

The convoy is stuck, so together with Garza you must eliminate the defenders in the dam control room, so that the vehicles can pass. Slowly enter the storehouse and hide behind the metal barrier. Listen to the Helghast talking and then shoot the solders below. Go to the lower level and another wave will appear. Follow Garza and defend him until he doesn't manage to open the door leading to the next section. Look out for the left side, as an enemy may manage to approach you from there.

When you get to the control room, eliminate the Helghast that are shooting in your direction from the other side of the dam and afterwards grab the valve and follow the commands to turn it.

Verdran Overlook East

Additional missions:

Next duck at the right side of the bridge and take out the soldier with a rocket launcher. Get on the bridge and cross it while keeping an eye on the machine-gun on the other side. Take out the Helghast and clear out the first and after that, second bunker. Go down the ladder and run to the convoy. Use the concrete tunnels on the right.

After getting there you will receive a report about a killed driver and tank operator. Run to the tank using the concrete barrier and enter the vehicle.

After you clean up the square, you will have to defeat some enemies defending one of the houses, through which you will reach the higher levels.

Heavy Canal

Additional missions:

Destroy the tower

You must defeat the heavily armoured soldier who's blocking the further road. There are two ways to get rid of him. You can wait with the team, aim at his head and when he turns around - shoot the container on his back. You can also approach him and hide near the car wreck on the right side.

Union Storage Yard

Additional missions:

Kill all foes

You finally reach Rico and Natko. You will see them jumping behind some bags with sand. Don't go to them, but move to the left side of the square and hide next to the door through which you entered. You will have a great shooting spot, as the Helghast counterattack will begin soon. There's also a weapon depot in which you will find the M244 - A1. Kill the four enemies coming out of the alley. When you will hear engines, run to the terrace on the upper level. After a while a transporter with soldiers will arrive. You can kill some of them while they still are in the vehicle and throw grenades at the rest. Unfortunately it requires some precision for them not to fall down.

The third wave will come out of the hole on your right. They shouldn't pose too much of a threat. The last attack will begin once a transporter breaks through the wall. Shoot the Helghasts from the upper level and don't hesitate from using grenades. After eliminating all of them get down and go through the door that your squad mates opened.

The Square

Additional missions:

Secure the Visari Square

Tem Alpha reaches the Visari Square just in time for the ISA assault. While in cover, shoot the Helghasts defending the posts and prepare for the counterattack which will soon start. You can use one of the stationary guns, or get up the building in the centre of the fortifications. There you will find a sniper rifle.

After two waves from the front, the third one will be from behind. Find yourself a spot behind one of the covers on the left side and greet the enemy soldiers with some bullets. After you eliminate them, the hardest part will begin. From the city's side a group of Helghasts, including two heavy armoured will show up. Quickly run to one of the stationary guns and try to hit the armoured enemy. After that, shoot at the container on his back. If you manage to kill him, try to kill the second one who's attacking from the other side.

You have to eliminate so that the convoy can continue. Move slowly forward using the covers. Rather use the left side of the bridge, as you will find cover behind a big barrier there. If there will be foes there, shoot the barrel between the cover and the car wreck.

While leaning out, target the head of the Helghast behind the stationary gun, kill him and rush forward. If you won't do this, he will be replaced by another one. Then deal with the second gun and kill the other Helghasts. Afterwards use the side exit and go under the bridge.

Caution and decisiveness are very important in this room, so before you come out of any corner check how much enemy soldiers there are before you and think how you can eliminate them as fast as possible.

Activate the antenna

Together with Rico you're searching the ruined facility for the lost ISA members. At the very beginning you will bump into an Intruder's wreckage. Continue forward and turn left near the end. Follow Rico. You won't be able to open the door, so you'll have to follow the cables.

Maintenance Office

Additional missions:

Activate the antenna

Run to the platform surrounding the settlement, climb up using the ladder and while eliminating the enemies, run to the back of the building in which the door opened after pressing the switch. Go inside and after a while the Helghasts will be cut off. You're almost safe; you just have to look out for spiders.

Vojislav Mining Facility

Additional missions:

Activate the antenna

Join Alpha team

The resistance is high, but you move forward in order to activate the antennas which Evelyn wants to use in order to find traces of petruzyte. You're in the open again and there are enemy snipers in the area. You can't let them hit you, as on the higher difficulty levels you'll die from just one hit. Hide behind the white barrel and cautiously lean to the right. You should see a kneeling sniper. Kill him and another one should show up, so kill him too.

Now lean out to the left. In the building on the left there are two more snipers. Run below the curved bridge and turn left to reach the back of those buildings. Go below the conveyor belt to the next level and you should see an enemy right before you. Kill him and immediately turn right as the other one may start to shoot at you. IF he doesn't, slowly approach and kill him. The third sniper will be in the last building in this row. You will be noticed by the soldiers defending the entrance to the corridor leading to the antenna. Eliminate them from distance (you can use the sniper rifle) or go down and get rid of them in close combat. Look out for the machine guns on the higher floor. It's best to eliminate the Helghasts there with grenades.

You will have to climb the antenna and turn on the valve there. Kill the two Helghasts and run through the last fragment because you can be hit by the two ATAC machines. Fortunately they're quite damaged, so you should destroy them easily. Afterwards turn the valve and go back to Rico. You will receive a report saying that Evelyn and the rest of the squad are under Helghast fire. You have to go back to the settlement using the same road you used before. This time there will be lots of enemies there, so don't hesitate in using grenades and ammo.

Suljeva North

Additional missions:

Join Alpha team

Save Alpha team

When you reach your destination you will discover, that the rest of the squad has been captured by the Helghasts and is now being taken to the train station. You have to follow the prisoners in order to free them. Before that you will have to deal with the back guards. Instead of charging forward, search for stairs leading to a platform on the right. Go up and hide behind the metal barrier. From here you should be able to eliminate the enemies.

Waystation 14

Additional missions:

Save Alpha team

Secure the train

The train will leave shortly; you have to make it in time. Kill the enemies on the second platform and two flying machines, while hiding behind the packages and in a hole near the door. Afterwards step back from the door and greet the enemies that will come through it with some lead.

Take the sniper rifle and eliminate all the enemies on the right side. It will be quite tricky, because there are lots of Helghasts around and those who you shoot at are attacking you with rockets. Although when you kill them, finishing the rest should be easy. Go down and up the stairs on the other side, from which you were attacked. Now just continue to eliminate the enemies on the platform. The sniper rifle can prove useful, but a normal machine gun will also do the job.

Number of suitcases: 2

Number of Helghast symbols: 3

Suljeva Minetrain

Additional missions:

Secure the train

The blue substance powering the Helghasts' weapons appears to be petruzyte. Three members of team Alpha are being held hostage. Unfortunately you didn't manage to catch the train with the prisoners and you got on the next one. You have to take over the Helghast train if you want to find your friends alive. Firstly you have to find a gun. After a while you will bump into the first enemy. You can approach him from behind and stun him, or just shoot. Pick up his gun and continue forward. There will be more enemies appearing from time to time. When you reach the first wagon you can attack the Helghasts there from below or use the ladder to reach the higher level. You should choose the first option, as you will be covered better. Look out for the grenades. If you see an enemy throwing a shiny ball in your direction better run from there at once. You can take advantage of the fact that there's lots of petruzyte being transported. If you see a group of enemies standing next to a shining container, shoot it instead of them.

In the further part of the train you will be able to use a gun mounted on a tank. Don't hesitate to use it as the Helghasts will be tough here. But the hardest part will await you right before reaching the locomotive. In the place where the tank starts to shoot at you there will be an unlimited number of enemies. While hiding from the tank's fire, you have to get rid of a wave of enemies, run to the gun stack, take a rocket launcher and shoot at the armoured vehicle. After four, maybe five times there should be an explosion. Slowly continue forward (you can take the rocket launcher if you still have some ammo) and get rid of all the Helghasts on the next wagon. Especially look out for those standing on the higher level, because they have rocket launchers. After you eliminate all of them go to the control room and you will reach a checkpoint.

Destroy the coil at the end of the corridor and you will be able to continue. There you will once again meet a Helghasts with an energy gun. Notice that above him there is a transport line. When he will be under it, shoot the petruzyte and you will stun him for a couple of second. Use this time to shoot the containers on his back. Do this over and over again until he falls. Go up the ladder to the control room and press the switch.

The battery is preventing the ISA reinforcements from gathering and team Alpha has to destroy the four towers before they can go further. Before you enter any of the bunkers, throw some grenades at it. Don't worry, there's plenty of ammo everywhere, so you don't have to be greedy. Throw the grenades through the main doors and the machine-gun posts. After that, slowly go inside, while killing the defenders. Place the explosives, go outside and detonate them. You have to repeat this four times.

There will be two heavily armoured Helghasts neat the battery. Eliminate them just like before - shoot them in the head and then attack the container on their back.

Kill Radec

After fighting your way into the palace you and Rico have to try and capture Visari. During the first segment of the fight you have to survive for a couple of minutes while defending on the ground floor of the sanctuary. The attack will occur from the front and back, so it's best to hide in the central part and look out for enemies.

After a couple of minutes the gates leading up will be opened. Go up, kill some Helghasts and go to the back of the sanctuary, next to the two weapon stands. Shoot the enemies below but keep an eye on your sides, as some of them probably will get through and attack you from there. When soldiers with rocket launchers will appear, take the sniper rifle and eliminate the enemies from a distance while moving between the pillars.

It's time for the final showdown with Radec, who is equipped with a masking device, and will often disappear and appear somewhere else - in most cases behind you. In this segment it's best to use the shotgun and run backwards all the time. This way you will able to quickly react to any oncoming danger. After a couple of hits Radec will move to the upper level and will begin to shoot at you with a machine-gun. Go there using the side stairs and flank him. Now you only need to shoot at him using a machine-gun until he dies.

After a short cutscene go to Visari's chamber, through the opened door. This is the end of the game. The only thing that's left is to wait for the next chapter in the war between Vectans and Helghasts.
