E3 2007: Killzone 2 Impressions
killzone2 之印象
Yes, it's real.是的是真的！

July 11, 2007 - Note: Images and video coming very soon.注意图形和视频会紧随其后的。
Tonight, Sony Computer Entertainment finally pulled the curtains back from its highly-anticipated first-person shooter, Killzone 2. The console giant has been entirely mum on the game since its debut at E3 2005, and though it started with tremendous hype, gamers have grown more and more weary over its status as time has gone on. The issue up until now has been that as impressive as the trailer was, it was all pre-rendered, and being that no one has really heard about the game in nearly two years now (aside from an SDK demo at this year's GDC which was in no-way indicative of the actual title), gamers everywhere have simply had to speculate as to whether or not it would live up to the extremely impressive trailer. And perhaps more so, whether or not said pre-rendered footage would doom the game to become a disappointment.
今晚，sony娱乐公司最终展示了令人期待的fps游戏kz2。自从05年e3后ps3上的kz2一致保持沉默，由于当初的视频具有欺骗性，随着时间的推移玩家们这款游戏的地位（期待）也变得越发疲倦。直到现在结果出来了，效果和当初（05年e3）游戏展示一样令人印象深刻，当初的视频完全是预渲染的（pre-rendered，预备渲染：可以理解成纯粹cg），从05e3到现在2年时间里这个游戏几乎消声匿迹，全世界的玩家只是怀疑是否真的存在这样一款超强画面的游戏。也许更严重的是，当时展示的画面说不定会毁了这款游戏（由于展示画面和实际游戏巨大的差异）。
Tonight's demo opened very similarly to what we saw two years ago. Clouds canvassed the screen until a soldier's head crept into view. He and others on his "cargo" vessel converse in short and abrupt sentences about how they're on their way to certain death. The scene is extremely similar to the lead-up to the invasion on Normandy Beach - certain hell is ahead, and the soldiers can't help but hold on to their helmets and hope to make it to the war zone intact and actually have a fighting chance.
今晚的游戏演示内容和两年前类似。。。。。（以下描述画面情节，与2年前类似，运输机降落。。。等等）
A couple more vessels come into view, engines kicking below their flat surface while soldiers can only crouch and hold on to the thin railing. There's no protection here, nor even seats. Just as the clouds begin to part, one of the vessels is hit by incoming fire and begins plummeting to the very expansive city below. After falling for what seems like an eternity, it finally lands in a ball of flame as soldiers on the other vessels talk about how they're certain to die. Their commander tells everyone to lock and load...
画面中又出现两个飞艇，引擎产生的气流使得甲板上的士兵只能抓住护栏匍匐蜷缩着。飞船上没有座位和保护。当烟雾散开，其中一个飞船被集中，冲向广阔的城市建筑物。这艘飞艇坠毁，形成一个火球，而另一艘飞艇上的士兵们真在讨论他们（坠毁的飞艇上的士兵）是否生还。这时他们的指挥官命令大家锁定目标着陆
The opening was once again fantastic, but we couldn't help but sit there and think, "When are we finally going to see some in-game footage?" The only thing was that we had been looking at in-game footage. As soon as our soldier hits the ground and his gun comes into view, very much like what we saw with the opening to Resistance, we couldn't help but think, "Holy hell, all of that was in-game?"
开始画面令人着迷，我们坐在那里忍不住想“什么时候能看到游戏里的时间画面？”接着我们看到了。士兵们着陆后，他的枪进入视野（指进入主视角），非常象《反抗》的开头部分。我禁不住想“天哪，刚才是游戏的实际画面”
Indeed, it's quickly apparent that Guerilla has come much closer to the original trailer than most anyone thought possible. It's not 100% identical to be sure, but there are times (quite often) when it's really, really damn close.
确实，这个demo所能达到的接近当初演示的效果是任何人都难以想象的。当然效果不可能100％一致，但是却非常非常接近。
While not featuring as much normal mapping in pro-pixel leatherization diffusion as Gears of War, it bests it in other ways. For one, there's more polygonal detail in, well, everything. Soldiers' faces looked unbelievable, and while you can pick out polygons while studying their shoulders, we must repeat that you have to study them. Streets and buildings are lined with stuff, and there's not really a better way to encompass that. Power lines, boxes, railings, window sills, trash... it's all there. While there aren't as many effects going on as we've seen in some UE3 gamers, there's unmistakably more detail to everything.
尽管没有战争机器象素中的那么多的通过法线映射产生的皮革散射特效，但kz2在其他方面很强。例如细节方面的多边形更多，嗯，几乎任何东西（的多变形很足）。战士的脸看起来难以致信（真实），而对于肩膀部分，你要仔细观察的才能发现多边形棱角，我们想再说一次你一定要仔细观察。街道和建筑物很丰富。电线、箱子、栏杆、窗台、垃圾桶。。。。到处都是。尽管没有虚幻3游戏中那么多的特效，但是很显然场景中的东西有着更多的细节。
The lighting is also smoother. While UE3 games like Gears boast realtime lighting for everything, Killzone 2's lighting scheme mixes realtime and pre-canned lighting for an extremely smooth and, frankly, extremely impressive lighting model. The art direction, what with its dark colors and overly-gritty feel, keep the game from looking "real", but that doesn't mean it isn't absolutely immersive. I will personally say that I can't remember seeing a more impressive lighting model than this. More realistic? Maybe. But more impressive? No.
光照也很柔和。虚幻3引擎的游戏例如战争机器中所有的物体都采用实时光照（运算量非常大），然而kz2中的光照采用混合方法既实时光照＋预渲染光照，最终形成一种非常柔和并且惊人的光照模型（效果）。尽管在艺术风格上kz2的黑色调以及那钟过度颗粒化的感觉使人有一种不真实的感觉，但并不意味着完全没有身临其境的感觉。我个人认为我从未见过如此令人印象深刻的光照模型（效果）。有比kz2是否更真实的光照？也许有。但是有比它更加令人印象深刻的光照？没有。
译者：目前所有的游戏可以采用实时光照，只是在技术上尽可能的接近真实变化，但是不可能大规模的实用光线跟踪技术，对与假光照通常是实用贴图等艺术手段完成，判断的方法很简单：如果一个游戏采用贴图光影，是无法表现昼夜变化等大面积的光线反射效果，对应特效的应用会很少，否则露馅。
Now for the gameplay... Do you remember what it felt like to first play Call of Duty, with bullets flying everywhere and feeling like safety or even pause was nowhere to be found? That's Killzone 2 in a nutshell. The bullets only stopped when a hallway was cleared and you haven't gotten to the next corner yet. And that didn't happen very often.
现在开始玩游戏了！你记得自己第一次玩使命召唤的感觉么？那种子弹满天飞，找不到安全的地方，甚至不能停下来喘口气。kz2就是这样！子弹仅仅是当走廊中战斗刚结束才停止乱飞下来，没等你走到拐角处，有开始战斗了。并且这种情况（之紧张战斗中的喘息片刻）非常少（译者：也就是说战斗很紧张！）
Taking place in the streets of the city, inside its alley-flanking buildings, on second- and third-story balconies and on a rooftop or two, there were always Helghast about and bullets were always in the air. One theme is clear - you'll never stay put. The demo-er rarely stopped moving, and when he did it was only to take out a single soldier. As soon as that one was dead, he was on the move again.
战斗发生在城市的街道中，在延街的建筑物中：2、3楼阳台、屋顶都有子弹发射过来。一个小场景打过去后，你根本就不能停下来。演示demo的人，在游戏中很少停止移动，当试玩的人停下来的时候仅仅是为了找敌人。一旦另一个死去，他又接着移动。（翻译的不好）
A cover system looks to be in place in some fashion, though it's a little unclear as to how "deep" it is. You're able to lean around the sides of cover or corners to take out enemies, and you can blind fire around and over it (with your soldier holding his weapon sideways as it kicks bullets into uncertain territory). It didn't kick you out to a third-person view ala Rainbow Six: Vegas however, so we're not sure how much you're intended to rely on it.
游戏中有一个现在流行的掩蔽系统，尽管还是不太清楚这个系统的细节。演示中你可以贴到墙角或者掩体上。。。
Speaking of not switching views, there were only two points in the demo where the view was not in first-person. One was at the very end of the level to show off a nice explosion, and another when the level's mini-boss appeared. When the player approached one of the alleyways, the camera pulled away and zoomed in on a massive, chaingun-wielding Helghast soldier, replete with nearly a tanks-worth of armor. He took down a number of AI soldiers before the Guerilla rep was able to stun him with some bullets to the face and then take him out by shooting some energy packs on his back. We expect the rest of the game to play out in a similar manner where most cutscenes leave you in a first-person view, while specific scenes or characters of importance are highlighted.
The big explosion at the end that we referred to has to do with the destruction of an electrical canon, the end-goal of the level. Throughout the mission, the sky lit up repeatedly with lightning that lit up the environment. We originally thought this was solely the work of mother nature and unrelated to the battle, but once we finally got a view of the city from a few stories up we saw that some of the electricity was coming from something man-made, or Helghast-made, to be precise.
The Helghast are capable of utilizing, and perhaps even controlling, the weather. This level has you seek out an electrical canon that first absorbs lightning, and then re-use the energy as an offensive weapon. We're not sure how much weather will play out in the rest of the game, but at the end of the demo Guerilla noted that weather will indeed play a part in actual gameplay, and that the Helghast will certainly make use of it.
