Prototype (thread continued) - Games

[QUOTE=Raiderz;15924935]Is it just me or does the sandboxyness sort of run dry after you finish the game? I used to think it was fun to infiltrate a base, kill everyone inside, then kill everyone outside, then blow up the building. But now they have it loaded down with so much damn security I can't do jack shit. Detectors are impossible to sabotage, tanks spawn like crazy, and strike teams knock you around with so many explosions you have no choice but to run away.[/QUOTE] I lose myself for hours fighting both hunters and military forces outside of hives. Having done everything this game has to offer, I'd say it's earned its place as one of my all-time favorites and Mercer made his way as my second most favorite fictional character. From his unstoppable powers, unrelenting ability to consume everything and the fact that he is an extremely complex and intelligent virus in the form of a human, he's the most badass video game character to me. The Viral Knight look (armor and blade) is amazing too.

you can stealth consume, if you get the chance. [QUOTE=TheHydra;15937090]Is there any way to get past the invisible walls? I want to get past the bridges and see what the hell is over there.[/QUOTE] you can try all i got was an infinte air strikes on my ass when i tryed the briage. you can give useing a heilcopter a try but my guess would be maybe an impossible to dodge homing missle.

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;15946324]I agree with all except the ability to consume everything. He can't consume Blackwatch Supersoldiers.[/QUOTE] Ok, you got me. I got a little too excited posting that, having just acquired 'trail of corpses' and thus, the platinum trophy. If anyone is striving for that one, just continually repeat the 'rolling thunder' event.

[QUOTE=apocalyptis;15948701]you can stealth consume, if you get the chance.[/QUOTE] No you can't. They have viral detectors built into their suits. So they WILL detect you before you can get close enough nomatter what.

You barely have to lift a muscle against Greene. Just get your shield and musclemass out, pick up some cars, run up the buildings and toss them at her as you're in the air. Keep moving and the hunter's won't get you. When BLACKWATCH shows up, just use the Whipfist to sling yourself up to the helicopters and unload the Seeker missiles on her. Getting as many Heli upgrades as possible might've caused it. I still don't know how her vomit was harder to fight than her. Jesus, I barely got through both Supreme Hunter fights. Thank god for Musclemass.

There's an event in the rooftop where it's a war between supersoldiers and hunters and you are siding with the hunters, sometimes before starting the event some supersoldiers and hunters will already be fighting close to the event starter, I remember I was going right through over there and the supersoldiers were too busy fighting the hunters. I was standing behind the supersoldier and wondered if I could consume him, so I opened the abilities small menu and steath consumed him, you don't get disguised as him though, I was disguised as a woman from the street and kept disguised as her.

I would love if you could run around as a Hunter or Super Soldier. The most badass combination imho is armor with strentgh :> That's so cool

I don't know if it's already been said(don't care to look), but does it bother anyone else that Alex could have just consumed the military guy at the end and gotten the disarming code from his mind? Kind of makes me think they didn't need to put a time limit in.

I dislike how those military are just born to become soldiers. They got like no relationship or family life and crap.

[QUOTE=ray243;15958506]I dislike how those military are just born to become soldiers. They got like no relationship or family life and crap.[/QUOTE] But they do! After beating up mutants the supersoldiers go home to their supersoldier wife and their supersoldier kids.

But that was especially silly. I mean, you had consumed people for the whole game :|

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;15958939]But that was especially silly. I mean, you had consumed people for the whole game :|[/QUOTE] Yeah, the FIRST thing I thought was that he'd eat this guy's fucking face off...

[QUOTE=ZomBuster;15958524]But they do! After beating up mutants the supersoldiers go home to their supersoldier wife and their supersoldier kids.[/QUOTE] So how do they have sex?

[QUOTE=ray243;15959299]So how do they have sex?[/QUOTE] Supersex.

I still never beat this game hmm. turned out exactly what happened with gtaiv

I haven't beaten it either. I did complete GTAIV and had fun with that, but this game has become very repetitive for me. I beat and consumed [sp]Green,[/sp] and the doctor guy [sp]shot himself,[/sp] so I'm pretty sure I'm close to being done. I think I'm going to finish the story and trade it in.

Easiest way to get Trail of Corpses is grab a thermobaric tank from the "Demolition" event, there's another one near an infected zone but i forgot the event name, (if you play that event you're more likely to get more kills, i got like 3000+ before i had to switch tanks) Also all forms of infected count, not just civilians but evolved, hunters, hydras, hunter leaders, water towers, and hives.

Beat the mission where McMullen [sp]shoots himself, before he did it I was thinking "Why is he listening to him? Just consume him. I wonder you could still consume him if he di- oh wow, he actually did it."[/sp] I also hate when I'm running behind a web target going to consume him, and just because he's near 2-3 infected a tank shoots the infected and kills the web target. :argh:

try bring up the animation for the sheild when you have the blade already equiped it looks pretty sweet.

A) He delayed the timer so he could just drop it off so no one could access the bomb at all, or B) Radical didn't want to follow that cliché of the timer stopping at one second. Whatever the case, watching Alex reconstruct his human form from a puddle was kickass.

Shield > Sprint > Crowd of people > Fuckin Hilarious

Know whats fun. Patsy-ing civilians.

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;15968672]Know whats fun. Patsy-ing civilians.[/QUOTE] Patsying is so frustrating, I always try to use it when discovered but it don't work none.

[QUOTE=Big Blue;15969221]Patsying is so frustrating, I always try to use it when discovered but it don't work none.[/QUOTE] Works for me.

Okay, I'm a bit confused. [sp]Final boss fight, how the hell did he just break out into a huge-ass infected super hunter? I mean, was there any lead up to the fact he might have the virus? Military tested on him? What?[/sp]

[sp]Do you remember a specific cutscene involving an infected jumping over a chainlink fence and running at him, with him striking his baton on the ground etc? well that was when the big guy showed up and ate him, it then disguised as him for the rest of the game[/sp]
