Due to CZcams's 11 minute limit, this file had to be split in two, sadly.
Part 1: • Killzone 2 - Final Bos...
Part 2: • Killzone 2 - Final Bos...
I understand sceptism, which is why I will prove that this is Elite to provide you with some peace of mind. Also, rest assured, it took me 600+ attempts to finally nail this level. Maybe it was only about 200 or so, but it sure felt like 600+. x_x
Elite mode does not have crosshairs. I know, you can turn these off in the options. However, when zooming in with the LMG, you'll notice crosshairs suddenly appear. This would not happen if I had turned off the crosshairs in the options menu, as that makes them vanish completely. This combination of events can ONLY be recreated on the Elite difficulty. I thoroughly suggest that you try this yourself to see and hopefully appreciate my standpoint more. Thanks!
This is, by far, the most difficult fight in the entire game. Part of the final Visari Palace mission, the fight spans 3 checkpoints prior to the 4th one where you finally face off against Radec. The second checkpoint is the one that will make you squeeze blood from underneith your nails, though hopefully my amateuristic antics will help you a little.
I've decided to make this video a separate entry from Visari Palace, considering its length and difficulty, not to mention importance and request. For the Visari Palace chapter walkthrough, please go to:
Stay distant, use cover, take your time and keep looking around you to prevent flanking. Your knife, surprisingly, is a beast, and will help you out tremendously. Either take it up close and personal, or stay as far away as possible. Don't stay in medium range, because you will lose.
The LMG you start with is the perfect weapon when fired in bursts, and the Grenade Launcher is a happy alternative once ammo runs low. You'll need the grenade launcher for the RPG enemies later, so don't spill all the grenades instantly. Speaking of grenades, the hand-held kinds are perfect for stirring up trouble and taking out clusters. Stay on the move, but keep an iron blanket going.
Thanks for watching, and good luck! You'll need it.

If only they had a back story about Radec's early life and rise through the ranks. That'd be pretty cool.
Wish granted (sort of). Not official, obviously, but I've actually been working on a Radec origin fanfic: www.fanfiction.net/s/13609645/1/The-Hounds-of-Helghan
I can still remember when i was just 11 year old kid trying to beat this boss for a whole week. Then after sweat and tears I defeated this boss, I felt the greatest feeling of accomplishment. This is one of the moment that made me a hardcore gamer
My dad was the one who ended up beating him haha, good times
@@djiegoigama1169 lucky to have a father like that... mine is a boomer who doesn't like games at all, he's that kind of father saying all the time ''this new generation s**ks''
This boss battle would be so much more manageable on Elite if Rico would actually kill Helghasts. Friggin' useless.
All of the ally units were pretty useless. Only good for weakening the enemy.
@@the_furry_inside_your_walls639 yea thats what al suposse to do
@@kingwendi5010 well rico can kill radec..
@@franegrancic7679 oop
@@kingwendi5010 no really I was playing that game 8 or 9 years ago, cant remember was i 8 or 9 years old at that time, but me and my dad were playing kill radec mission on elite and we were trying some new stuf.. and rico killed radec.
I love Radec as a character. I hate him as a boss.
Thùy-Anh Thái because you dont want him dead
this part is a real pain
الو
6 hours I got stuck here on elite... never again!
It’s Colonel Radec making his debut of the game.
I got so frustrated with this level and can remember throwing the controller in anger at the oh so close almost done it part of the level! Glad to say I did eventually complete the level and it was a joyous feeling.
I was 22 years old when I got this game in 2009 love it.
"I'll deal with these two myself" ..... "Cut them off" huh? way to contradict yourself instantly
So nostalgic.
Damn, all that rage and stress sure pays off after beating a level in a very challenging difficulty. I hope Mercenary and Shadow Fall will have boss battles just as or more awesome as this.
I don't know why this is so confusing for everyone, just try using the LMG for yourself like he did and you'll see how well it actually work. Nevermind the crosshairs not showing up. You can turn the crosshairs off in settings, HOWEVER, in the video the player has crosshairs for the grenade launcher when in iron sight mode, which means that the crosshairs aren't turned off in the settings which PROVES it's elite. You guys need to grow up.
Thank you for this video, it's helping me immensely.
I'm stuck on Chapter 2 because it's so bloody hard !
Your technique for killing the RPG Helghast is the best I've seen though.
Good old Killzone 2. Old but Gold and so Much better then this Fuckin Shadow Fall Crap.
+Örnek Hüseyin Shadowfall is fucking shit.
+Örnek Hüseyin SF's MP is better but the campaign is pretty bad.
Shadowfall has no place in the Killzone universe. Killzone's roots were in sci-fi boots=on-ground combat, not the bullshit spec-ops and high tech combat that was in SF. Ableit, the owl unit and its features were cool, but other than that, the rest of the game was just... nothing but a CoD ripoff. They did the specops theme a hell of a lot better in Mercenary than they did in SF because they at least kept the original themes of KZ in Mercenary and the points/upgrades system was an interesting touch.
This is still the best Killzone ever, and really it's not even close. KZ3 and Shadow Fall are okay (KZ3 >>> SF, though), but they've made the series progressively worse as a whole. At least the two Vita editions were good.
Also, this remains the toughest FPS section I've ever played. God I was raging at this lol. Getting the plat for this helped make it worth the struggle though.
Over the span of this 3 week final boss level I died 100+ times I've only beaten killzone 2 on elite once and that's enough for anyone believe me
I've been playing Killzone 3 for a while, and I must say, every time I see a Killzone 2 video, i remember that the prequel was so god damn AMAZING.
this game gave me shellshock
I love the STA-14 i Have to thank radec for it
you know I really like this video out of all elite last level vids,mainly cuz u pause and explain to us wat to do next like ur doing it with us,and I have heard that a good idea was to knife everyone but i thot it was too risky but watching u do it gives me more confidence in this level,thx I sub
DUDE! Your knifing strategy is AMAZING!!! THANK YOU!
I seriously tried for about 3 hours to beat it on hard and I gave up and changed it to easy...... BUT SERIOUSLY WHAT IN THE FUCK IS WITH THIS FIGHT ITS IMPOSSIBLE
Took me a week, but it was wroth it!
Helghast with rocket launchers ARE anoying in this part. Seriously the mind gun is your best friend in this final battle. Plus shotty when up against Radec. Nice run bro.
Omg thanks man, im not sure I could of platinumed this game without your help. I never realised how helpful the knife was, since I did about half the game on elite, struggling, I decided to try and get this over with, found your video, after I beat this, the last half was easy. Your tactics can really be applied to any part of killzone 2. Thanks again man!
I think my game is broken because there are 2 enemy soldiers in the fight that just wont die its like they have god mode
This level and game is amazing. Elite is insanely hard as it should.
watching the final cutscene was the most rewarding thing i have ever seen aften killling radec on elite :)
Here's a strategy for fighting Radec, once he decides to make it personal. Use the flamethrower on him. It will do continuous damage and you will be able to track him better when he goes invisible.
Absolutely barely. One more minor hit of anything and I would've been dead. I was most likely between 4% - 1% health.
Luck is your greatest weapon in this fight.
I have just done Elite thanks to you mate! So thank you.
I really enjoyed Elite, or at least I can appreciate it now that I have finished! It was a good challenge and fun, with realistically intelligent baddies and great atmosphere. Finally got that gold trophy! Thanks again.
they should totally remake Killzone 2 on PS4 get rid of the clunky controls and run it on their new Horizon Zero Dawn engine. Brilliant game this was back in the day and some places on Elite took me frigging Hrs and Hrs just to get through. Like the beach area towards the start of the game
I would buy that straight away.
I like both games, but I'm not sure if HZD engine is good for Killzone
I spent an hour banging my head against this with the M82. Watch this little video and boom. That LMG cleans house. Thank you tremendously for this video. My mood improved hundred-fold because of this.
OMG, I beat Elite! I used some of your tactics and somebody else's. I found the key to be relaxation.
With every single video you upload in HD, youtube puts the SD version up prior to the HD one. The HD takes longer to process, and will be available in a few hours. The same goes for part 2, which is currently being processed.
The Antagonist(Helghast): Best A.I. i ever seen
Rico: It would make our lives easier if we played without him.
Enemies react different when you knife charge them. You have to know exactly how and when to charge, and that takes some luck, but mostly lots of practice. Try it, you'll see.
happy bday and good luck with your new ps3
Exactly. You just proved to yourself that this is Elite. Turn the crosshairs off, and they will be gone during hip-fire AND iron-sight.
Only during Elite can you generate the situation where you hip-shot without, but ironsight with. Try it.
I got the Babysit trophy on this fight alone, So glad they added team mate revive for you in the third game.
Nice vid. Helped me out! I finally beat this game on elite after spending like nearly 2 hours on this part of the game. Couldn't believe I did it! When those rpg dudes came on the 2nd checkpoint I threw 1 grenade at the bastards and got the checkpoint cleared! Can you believe that hand grenade is the reason why I managed to beat this checkpoint and the game?! Holy cow! Radec himself took me quite a few tries as well. This game kicks ass!=D
Removing crosshairs in the option menu also removes the crosshair in Iron-Sight. The only way to have crosshairs removed only during regular walking, and not during iron-sight, is by playing it on Elite, so it still definitely proves it.
I do appreciate you giving me the benefit of the doubt to begin with. I hope this tips the scale completely towards the good side.
yo Aidan thanks a lot son, i followed ur tips & manage 2 beat the game on elite mode. i also got the platinum... i've been trying 2 beat this level 4 a mean ass minute.
I'm glad you've used my previous videos, and you can rest assured; this is Elite. I have no reason to lie, and you can visually see that this is proven elite.
Don't forget, this video is attempt 800+ for me as well. It might seem like I breeze through, but I just learned after days and days what the best walking patterns were, etc.
I remember spending ages trying to defeat Radec on hard difficulty. Amazing boss, though.
I finally beat the game on Elite! thx for the vid! I probably wouldn't have been able to do it without this
the music during this right is friggin epic
It's amazing how a game can feel so futuristic and yet relevent today aswell. Radec was a great villian. You gotta love that he killed himself rather than be captured it really illustrated his hatred for the ISA. Translation: This game is the best FPS to date.
I believe this is elite now. I had to figure out my own tactics though. The video gave me a few ideas. Thanks for posting it. I now have a nice shiny platinum trophy for Killzone 2 :)
killzone 2 has this feeling that have never been felt by anyone since return to castle wolfenstein
"Bring the Chandeliers down upon them!"
My favorite quote in the final boss fight...
love that teleporting sound radec has
player: haha! Ima getcha you filthy ass radec!
radec: hehehehehe! im glad i have this teleport! * zap *
player: SHIT! not again!
radec: wooohoo! ima behind you!
player: oh life...
Wow, I'm very impressed you made it through the second checkpoint so well, without getting killed. That's usually the worst part of the level, then it gets much easier after that. This level feels unbalanced for me, so many enemies scattered all over the place w/ minimal cover for you and your buddy imo. Great job man, I'll use this for my Elite diff. run.
Defeating Radec on Elite is the hardest thing in the game, should be a trophie on it's own
Radec: "Split those two up, don't let them support each other."
Random Soldier: "Filth!"
Because Radec read The Art of War by Sun Tzu.
I was kind of screwed in checkpoint 1 because I didn't have the lmg so I carpet bombed in the beginning every time and got stuck with that shit assault rifle. But your strategy for checkpoint 2 was flawless, after trying it multiple times on my own, I watched you do it and I got it first shot. I ran out of grenade rounds so I used the Sta and only killed rocket guys on the right side and it still worked. Great strategy.
Seeing as in Recruit, Trooper and Veteran you have the regular crosshair, this must be the fabled hidden 5th difficulty level; neverland.
Nice job vid helped me out quite nice; still trying but will get there in time. One question what did you use to tape the event?
OMG!!!! FINALLY AFTER ABOUT 500 ATEMMPTS I GOT DONE WITH THE FIRST PART YES
Good observation, "noob". Sadly, the crosshairs come back when you zoom in with the LMG/Grenade launcher, which means it has NOT been disabled in the options. It does prove it.
Thanks a ton for this. I see the pattern I have to go through now making shit a lot easier. I needed some help on the balcony part because I was about to break my controller hahaha.
Thanks again!.
Did you click on the HD button..? it's crystal clear.
Your observational skills rival your punctuation.
This is the best FPS game I have ever played.
that's why you stay in cover and fire out of cover until there are no visible threats, then move to the next piece of available cover. :)
I followed your tips and it helped me out alot keep up the good work
Alright then I'll take your word for it.
All the rage.... I thought ow finnaly Visari squar just gonna kill Radec and done.... But no endless hords of helghans with rpg's fuck that
This video is for advice, not for bragging rights. You don't have to take it, nobody is forcing you.
Simply looking at the speed in which health decreases, you could clearly see this is Elite, but again, I have nothing to prove, so believe me or don't. It's up to you. :]
the graphic in this game is amazing
this and uncharted 2 are the best-looking games ever
You. Own. At. This. Game.
This is much harder then Ghost and Goblins on NES, and i have played all the hard games out there, lost levels Zelda 2 megaman, megaman and bass ninja guiden and all that other bullshit, i have bested all these bs hard games but this way by far the hardest, KZ3 is much easier on elite then the second one
***** you still has to survive the onslaught the enemies brings to you regardless of what weapon you're using, having no crosshair on elite makes it much more difficult to hipp fire in close combat, but hey i do love the challenge
great help, got me to the balcony at least. its so damn hard. for all of you saying its not elite. it is. the LMG is a strong gun which is why they go down so fast. I did notice that the helghast seemed a bit easier on this level compared to the rest of the game on elite. still one helluva time though.
1) Get behind the wall where the weapons rack is (on the left) using the sta-52 shoot them when they pop out of the big statue. then next pick the sta-3 rifle and kill the shock troopers. Then you hear the door behind you just turn around and shoot both pyro troopers and 2 shock troopers. go up and knife them pyro troops grab the sta-52 shoot and hide until you hear the door, then knife and rifle untill the door sounds again, grab the grenade launcher and use knife too. Always run side to side.
its on elite, he's using knife because it takes practically an entire clip from the STA-3 to bring down an enemy. On the higher difficulties, you just don't have the time to waste putting that many bullets into one guy since this is when they start rushing you, knifing is the fastest way to put an enemy down. Too bad they didn't put more ammo for the mine gun in this level, that gun is awesome.
look like the battle of the the Reichtag in 1945
+Ruskov Krimenko Kinda the point
This is indeed Elite.
I haven't attempted this yet, but these videos have given me a general game plan for this. Though, do you know how long it would take someone who isn't as good as you to complete this?
No. Turning cross hairs off also disables iron sight crosshairs. Elite mode is the absolute only way to lose cross hairs during regular, without losing them in iron sight.
I had a harder time defeating that bot that flew around, to be honest
The guys with the rocket launchers got me so many times
I'm in the boss fight on Veteran right now (played through on Trooper before), and fuck, this is unbelievably hard! The boss fight is much more difficult than everything before! It doesn't feel like the same difficulty setting...
Part 1: you must kill 19 helghast without a checkpoint to proceed.
part 2: you must kill 30 helghast without a checkpoint to proceed to phase 3 of the battle.
sev: he can use any gun he finds but he cant open a locked door
@PringlesForAidan Indeed this is elite mode, it is not really that hard, just be patient and extremely careful when shooting... This is a good guide too, using flamethrower on 1v1 with Radec is great too.
Part 1 took me 6 days to beat on elite difficulty whereas part 2 took me approximately 2 weeks and part 3 & 4 took 45 minutes at the most so proud when my trophy popped in the credits
@cortes1988 you don't need to know which one is Radec until he's the only Helghan left.
The song is "Autarch's Sanctum".
2018 then?
@roadrunnerside8 actually you do have aiming sight if you press L1...this is trully elite mode
I'd forgotten how good the knife was in this game. It probably comes second behind the Jedi Outcast lightsaber for greatest melee weapon of all time.
Thank you to all those posting techniques,Finally after some very stressfull near miss attempts i have the untouchable trophy,I found the LMG to be best save it for radec go down where others have mentioned to entrance and wait for him to come to you then just shoot a burst,keep repeating until he is almost dead when he spawns up top then just run into middle behind statue aim and shoot at his head.
Well I'm off to try for this elite trophy now,LOL sigh
Don't even go there. It's been proven this is on Elite.
Keep in mind that this level has taken me around 800 attempts over a 5 day span. This just shows the time it finally worked.
2) You have to time the knife kills (running at them) or they will kill you quick. The first time I used the knife I used it with the rifle just to save grenades, because the shock troopers come from both sides the knife works but the grenades kill them fast.
Rocket guys get kill with grenade launcher or knife.
Radec will chase you so I went to the entrance with sta-52 rifle and just shoot him when he appeared. If you have to get out of there you can always comeback here. Just run, run, run.
It's quite obvious that there are no crosshairs during regular fire, unless you're blind.
If you've played Elite, you'd know this; only iron-sight shows crosshairs, which in this video, it obviously does.
Thank you for your time. Let's move along now.
This is definitely elite difficulty man. You can't see the crosshair of the LMG until he zooms in.
This is Elite. You can tell because the crosshairs only show up when he zooms with the LMG.
" Didn't I kill "all" of you yet?. CRAZY FUCK!!. that voice and choice of words are evil as hell!! To Radec. The ultimate villian
Radec is one of the most badass villains/commander/soldier IN HISTORY!!! now who agrees?!!!
