Prototype Thread

I was disappointed with the games ending. I think it ended way to fast without covering a lot of things. What ever happened to his sis I guess we will never know.

the sisters stuff is covered in the side quests, the military ones i beleive.

I've found out some secrets about her, but not her location... but one of the missions was 'capture the scientists to reveal (forgot her names) location"

I agree. It was fun while it lasted but I really don't see much replayability and I was left rather opinionless (nothing to really love and nothing to really hate) when I finished it.

Try it again in story mode +
You get to do it all again, with your unlocked powers

So is this worth a shot at playing or no?

It's worth a shot at playing, it's feels quite a bit different than other open world games. I just finished it about an hour ago. It's good for a play through once or twice.

for the money... no not really. i've been playing a lot and really i wish all the monsters you face in the Missions were in Free Roam Mode. Like the big tingle thing, the Super Hunters, and the Super Soldiers. i hope someone does a mod for this to happen.

although, the Story is quite long.

on my spec rig is running flawless all on high

If I try it again, it would be on hard difficulty where the + mode isn't unlocked yet. I don't want to be pulling my hair out though so I'll just play Black & White 2 for now.

Kate Bowman I think. Your ex girlfriend.

overall this game is fun for maybe 30 minutes at a time. i get kinda bored with the story and the running around. i wish the missions were a tad more involved. the upgrades are awesome though and the graphics are nice.

I'm with Rhino - I'm bored of this now. Doesn't help that my attention span...

Anyone heard of a patch coming out soon? I'm thinking about playing it on hard but would like some of the bugs fixed before I do.

 

[ASRockIQ]

has anyone beaten all the events in the city? i know you'll get harder event's appear after but anything else other then that? i have like 6 more to go till i go Gold on all but can't beat the last 6 they are hard. i wish all the other enemies you faced in the Story would appear in Free Roam State.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I got Gold on all and Platnium on most.


Which ones are you having trouble with?

 

[ASRockIQ]

actually i have a few to go. maybe like only 12. i have like 2 Jumping Events and a few killing Events. one is your in Helicopter and trying to kill 300 in only a few mins.! just need to know if anything chances after you beat all the events.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

All finishing them all does is unlock the Platinum level. I've never got all Platnium (those running ones annoy me too much to bother) so I don't know if anything happens if you do.


Is the helicopter the one near the Black Watch base on the south of the island close to the water? If it is, the only way I could do it is to fly around the corner to the hive, fly close to the ground so all the infected appear (the ones that act like zombies but aren't marked with a red arrow), and fire rockets up and down the streets. Don't blow up the hive until you have 250+ (it is worth 50). It constantly spawns more infected for you to destroy.


Jumping events... charge your jump and run back from where you have to jump from (do not leave the roof you are standing on). Stand there looking in the direction of the jump until you see the cue that your jump is fully charged. Hold the run forward and sprint keys down. He will jump when you get close to the wall and the the moment he jumps, let go of your charged jump. At the apex of the jump, press the jump key again to glide. You'll gain altitude and some forward momentum. Once the forward momuntum wears out, press forward twice to do an air dash. Once the momentum from the air dash runs out, repeat the glide, airdash, and finally glide again. You always want to glide into your target. I find that I am extremely accurate falling on the target coming out of glide. The only exception is where you have to get under the bridge. My recommendation there is to air dash at about the same height of the bridge so you'll end up under it.

 

[ASRockIQ]

lol, that jumping event is easy! i already did the one you mentioned and i got a gold. yeah, i hate the events where the last marker is way far off. eh, i'll get the events done whenever i feel like it. only have 9 to go now.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Gold was easy (surprised me it was so easy in fact), it's the Platinum that's hard. Of the jumps, the one going under the bridge is the hardest to get Platinum for me.

If you do it the way I said, you should actually be able to over shoot them all by a long ways if your timing is right (running big jump, three glides, two air dashes).

anyone having issues with a black boarder around there display. Im running the game at 1920x1080 but I get a black frame type deal with it. Ive tried everything. Might be my monitor doing it but im not sure. But im having a blast with this game. reminds me of gta on crack. so much fun.

 

[ASRockIQ]

no black border here at 1080p.

 

[ShRoOmAlIsTiC]

im thinking it miight be an overscan issue with ati and my lg. I get the same boarder when I comeback from standby. I have to power off and then back on to fix it. I cant seem to get it to go away in prototype tho.

 

[Mussels]

have you tried moving the overscan slider in the CCC? mine rarely defaults to 0% on a fresh install, so i always have to change that.

"The story doesn't really matter?" WTF? *quits looking at it in disgust*


WTF? The game starts with calling them the "Blacklight" and about the third cutscene in, they call them the "Blackwatch." I think "Blacklight" was intended because Blackwatch is a real private security contractor that has been in the news. The headline must have got somehow wrapped up in the developement so the name changed.

I'm playing it on hard now and it was definitely worth replaying. All the web of intrigue cutscenes now make sense.

 

[Mussels]

'blacklight' is/was the project, blackwatch are the people.
