I don't concider sprint super speed. compaired to the first game, it is no where near acceptable. and plus, didn't they have non super sprint in the first game? I haven't played it in a month so my thoughts are a bit shaky.Serving UpSmiles said:
Does Crysis 2 seem a little bit... unoriginal?

I fear what it will do to my Xbox. Those things are unstable enough as it is...ShadowKatt said:
They've just incorporated it differently. It activates when you perform certain moves (like leaping from a 20ft rooftop and punching someone on the ground in the head), whilst sprinting also comes under power, as does jumping. Basically strength and speed are now one and the same, and you don't activate a mode, they happen when you do other stuff.octafish said:
Armour and cloak are still modes, and bear in mind things get changed in multiplayer for balancing purposes.
Also, this is the multiplayer, the series' focus is still on singleplayer. Saying "it's just like Call of Duty" in the multiplayer doesn't mean shit, since I can compare CoD to the bloody Jedi Outcast multiplayer if I wanted. Deathmatches only have so many ways to go, but the suit powers definitely add to it; to the point where I'd suggest that if you are saying it's like CoD, you're not playing it right.
Also, I thought the first Crysis' multiplayer was fucking awful, and whilst it isn't wholly original (IN MULTIPLAYER - DON'T NOT BUY IT BECAUSE YOU THINK THE MULTIPLAYER IS THE SAME AS COD, I BEG YOU) it's a damn-sight better.
The beta also has a relatively small map, and it is being played on a console. It's trickier to pull off some advanced moves than it will be on the PC.
As for the singleplayer, they've said maps will be slightly smaller in area for the most part, but they've got much more volume to work with because of the buildings and rooftops.
I don't care about the map. I just don't like how crysis transformed itself into modern warfare with aliens.SamuelT said:
Perhaps because its on Xbox live the multiplayer can't have things like uber speed and mega strength, but don't forget the single player could have all the powers you like and hope and beg to dev's to be there.MASTACHIEFPWN said:
Also: Of course it will be like that on the PC you silly gosling, I don't see any logical reason why they would make the game have uber significant changes in game play cross platforms.
And the demo was mighty fine, I enjoyed "sam fishering" people with stealth tactics
Xbox is made to handle it, so you won't have to worry about it, they come prepacked with the fastest processors and graphical capability, for computer you have to get that on your own, and install it on your own.AnAngryMoose said:
It has killcams and a UAV available after three kills, some sort of airstrike after five, and a helicopter/spaceship after seven. Way to push the boat out. Nevertheless it doesn't mean that Crysis 2 wont be good. It looks like a cross between COD and Halo - it could be interesting.
Honestly, they're just trying to get the crowd who likes Call Of Duty, but wants a little variation. I love CoD, but I'm sick of it. Playing this Demo was familiar but JUST different enough to catch my attention; not $60 worth of attention of course, but that's just me. There might be a bunch of people similar to me who will buy it, and that's pretty much the target audience.
I don't care about multiplayer at all. If Single Player doesn't lack the gameplay elements that made the first Crysis great I will be satisfied. I didn't buy Crysis for multiplayer anyway and I never even touched it.
As for the urban jungle setting. I doubt the entire game will be set there. Remember we still have to find out what happened with Prophet, Nomad and Psycho. We basically don't know anything about the story. All we know is that some missions will take place in NYC, we don't know if all missions are going to take place there.

And CoD is worth $60? Oh please, CoD isn't worth $15. Same engine, same gameplay. All they did is changed a few models and put in some new features. The cost of all of those features couldn't have been enough to justify the $60 price tag!TheECP said:
Good God, is it really that bad?TOGSolid said:
Crytek, why the hell do you want to ruin your game? Why on earth couldn't you make an original IP instead of impaling Crysis through the heart and destroying it's legacy? Why?!
OT: Obvious Crybaby nature aside, I'll try the demo then I choose if it's worth it or not.
The graphics really are mindblowing and all the player mechanics are good. Movement and shooting all feel slick and bad-ass. And switching vision modes in multiplayer is so satisfying. The tactical element of stealth or shield is always making the game more interesting and managing your power is something that needs fine tuned skill to use well. The game looks well balanced and I was surprised by the freedom to climb in multiplayer. I mean what is this Brink?Radeonx said:
You know Ghost Recon Future Soldier. I wished so much that that would be first person (having no previous knowledge of ghost recon games). When I learnt what the Ghost Recon series was I was put off but crisis 2 looks to be the answer.MASTACHIEFPWN said:
This is not modern warfare in modern warfare you never had to worry about invisible dudes or guys slide tackling you. There is simply more to it than Call of Duty.
What's unoriginal about a guy in super-armour going about beating up bad guys with an accent grizzlier than a grizzly bear?
