Support NeoGAF

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

GalCiv, one of RPCS3's lead developers has been hard at work improving RPCN, allowing for many more PS3 games to be played online. Not only are more games supported, but we now support adding friends to your RPCN account and inviting them to matches similar to how it worked on PSN on a real PS3! Some games even have working leaderboards.

Check out the RPCN Compatibility List: https://wiki.rpcs3.net/index.php?title=RPCN_Compatibility_List for a list of all our compatible games that can be played online. Click the title of the game you wish to play to see if any further settings are required.

It is important to note RPCN is still in development and many games cannot be played online. And some games require a custom server to be created by the community (not RPCS3 Devs), in order for online play to be possible. If you'd like to host your own instance of RPCN, the server code is available from here: https://github.com/RipleyTom/rpcn

That's pretty fantastic! Don't have much to say beyond that.
Emulation is great as always.

Holy shit.

I made my RPCN account a little while ago to play LBP but wasn't able to join anybody.

Friends, let's all get on that Killzone 2 MP. It was godly.

I would be so down for Killzone 2 (or 3) MP, providing it works of course!

it’s crazy to me how the holy trinity can be played on PC now but not the PS5.

I'm trying to set up KZ2 on my handheld. Sadly it seems the game uses SixAxis motions which means you can't finish the game. Bummer. I'll look and see if there's a workaround.

In the credits at the end of the video it says its made by 1 dev.
Very impressive.

I love playing Skate 1-3 on the Rpcs3 emulator. Just too bad it makes my CPU run at 90 degrees.

 

[Kurimao]

Chirp! Cya in Killzone 2.

 

[Klosshufvud]

Tonight there is an event for Killzone 2 MP over at PSRewired. I will attempt to join this and report back how it was.

Nice! Looking forward to hearing from you on that.

Interesting. Hopefully this works better than the netplay that I used to use on the 16bit emulators.

Played some matches on Killzone 2 MP. I am quite amazed by this. It's pretty much the same experience as on PSN. They've done a very elaborate network and I am thoroughly impressed. I was playing on handheld so it definitely felt like some crazy life hack emulating PS3 online on a handheld lol. The server was full the entire time I was playing but you will need to check discord to see when people join up. You can also naturally create your own server if you want to play with friends. It's just like PSN. Captured some screenshots in all that 720p 25-30 fps PS3 goodness.

It's of course not optimal to play the way I did if you care about kills. It's probably more pleasant on a beefy PC or on native hardware. I will definitely keep playing though. This game had so many underappreciated design quirks to it that were never replicated elsewhere. The actual online aspect works flawlessly no question about it. Felt just like it did on PS3.
