Crysis 2 - Games - Facepunch Forum

Aren't there three? High, very high and extreme or something.

Woo, slowpunch.

this game was confusing as shit to play at first because it plays so differently from crysis

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;28760417]Who cares if there's no editor.. unless you buy the game for only the editor. [/QUOTE] I had more fun with Sandbox than I did with Far Cry and more fun with Sandbox 2 than I did with Crysis

Just beat the game right now. And the ending is quite a refreshing change from most AAA titles these days. [sp]NO MASSIVE CLIFFHANGERS! YES![/sp] Not particularily a spoiler really, but you can never be too safe. And if you're turned off by the "consolification" then you're truly missing out on one of the best games on the market. I personally regard this on the same level as HL2, TF2 and Portal from the quality of work and effort that they put in this game. Best $60 on a video game that I ever spent.

The singleplayer story is all over the place (Disease, riots, military action, military corruption, aliens, etc), and it's full of holes considering this is supposed to be a sequel and not a new IP. Nothing from the first Crysis is ever explained, and our only direct link to the original story kills himself 30 seconds into the game. The best we get is some of the original alien vessels hung up on a wall [b]at the very end of the game[/b]. How they became this new threat with an entirely new appearance and completely different weaponry is never explained.

At least that was the story way before the demo even came out.

Then you're not shitting on fans that liked the first game, and you have the option to go back and make more money later.

[QUOTE=Jaehead;28760637]because nanosuit connects those two games, the core mechanics are still there what you just said is just like asking why call it GTA IV when the only thing that stayed the same from GTA III is the setting[/QUOTE] GTA is a style of game. They're open world games involving cars and crime at their base. 'It has nanosuits' is not a style of game, it's a feature. Naturally, two games can have ability-boosting combat suits. Half-Life had the HEV suit. On top of that, Crysis 1 and Crysis 2's suits are vastly different in functionality. They're hardly the same thing anymore.

[QUOTE=Rusty100;28760422]extreeemee[/QUOTE] Hell yeah. Cryengine 3 is actually less intensive than its predecessor which really dissappoints me because when I looked at the ground I noticed it was less sexy than in Crysis 1. [editline]23rd March 2011[/editline] All right, it seems all ranked servers are down.. Let's take this time to add all of each other =D Hi, I'm ErrorProxy as in game.

CE3 sanbox from the leak is so much fun to dick around with. I turned Times Square into a gigantic rave party. *unce, unce, unce, unce, unce*

I like the multiplayer but what happens when you level up your power, stealth, or whatever they are called? Do you they increase your limits for your suit?

You also find out that the Nanosuit was actually based off of ceph tech that was discovered around 100 years ago.[/sp] [QUOTE=The-Spy;28760692]I like the multiplayer but what happens when you level up your power, stealth, or whatever they are called?

Example would be Lvl 3 Strength allowed you to move faster and jump higher. EDIT: Oh. Prophet also found out that [sp] there were sleeping colonies spread out all over the world. But I don't really see how it was that hard to guess anyways. [/sp]

Just played multiplayer, just search for unranked games you won't be in the leaderboard but if you really wanna play just bear with it. You WILL still level up and have unlocks even if you play unranked.

I started the campaign, and it'd be nice to actually do something in the first 10 minutes of the game instead of watching cute little scenes

Does your suit change when you progress through the levels in multiplayer?

I find it silly you can still get the "preorder exclusive bonuses" for another 4 days. I kinda was going to get it today, because I don't like the whole FREE TRIP TO LEVEL 5. But i dunno know.

I remember skydying.. now THAT was cool. Welp, one of my steam friends told me [sp]prophet dies in the beginning[/sp] so he sorta killed it for me.. darn. [editline]23rd March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=The-Spy;28760795]Does your suit change when you progress through the levels in multiplayer?[/QUOTE] Of course.

not to mention 1/4 life spoiled it at the top of the page

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;28760823]not to mention 1/4 life spoiled it at the top of the page[/QUOTE] It's also obvious that it happens because it's in the trailer.

i think that crysis 2 is like the first one.. almost :c

[QUOTE=Legend286;28760840]It's also obvious that it happens because it's in the trailer.[/QUOTE] Not a trailer that I've seen. But thanks for letting me know.

The disco elevator was removed in retail version. I think Crytek edited Gould's lines cause there's less "man" than in leaked version, but subtitles remains the same.
