The Crysis 2 Thread

[human_error]

Oh didn't know or notice that. Puts my mind at ease, thanks.

Also whats with the Crytek eye that stares at us for half a minute with no apparent reason? Doesn't that bug anyone else? its like wtf...

Indeed it's irritating. I believe there is a command you can add to the exe which stops the intro movies (I don't know what it is but there was one for crysis/warhead iirc).

Thats thing! Even with g_skipIntro = 1 its still there! No way of getting rid of it

Oh btw its g_skipIntro = 1 to skip the rest of the intros, just not that eye thing.

I miss the option for the girl voice for the nanosuit, was nicer than the growly dark lord of sith voice thats there now.

watching my friend play today i got the impression that alcatraz is dead after the first scene its just the suit is ggrowing into him at the moment and the flash back makes him look very dead that happens around the same time .would explain why he says nothing after all guys in the last two games talked .

well in one mission where he is scanned in the suit properly they do say the suit is the only thing keeping him alive - his lungs have collapsed, are full of holes and one is torn into many smaller chunks (plus tons of other organ/skeletal damage). Having no functioning lung capacity would somewhat limit the ability to speak He does have a pulse however, as one mission starts with you having to get the suit to defribilate him before he can move.

I'll be skipping this bad console port.

Wake me when Elder Scrolls V is out.

Spoiler

from what i played you are literally a walking corpse, taking the suit off is certain death, the equivalent of striping someones skin.

the suit gets disabled for a short while at one part and you can barely walk / are dying. then you fall 100 feet out of a helicopter, land with your face, get defibulated by your magic super suit and are back to killing 15 seconds later.

Ok so the game saved my Character at a point where I died.

So every time I load my save game I die instantly. Is there a fix?

cheat. use god mode. load earlier save. become instant ninja and survive somehow.

Restarting did the trick lol.

I've been so engulfed in the game I'm losing bits of my mind.

Eh, tell me about it. Such stupidity happened in Dark Messiah in the part where some chick is following you. She died and the game was saved. So i had to load the game, type in the cheat super fast and chase her before the bastards killed her. It took me like 50 truied but i did it and then quickly saved a stand alone save.

 

[BumbleBee]

Crytek did a poor job on checkpoints.

 

[Over_Lord]

^^ they had to introduce it because of consoles..

 

[HalfAHertz]

Um the first two also had checkpoints...

 

[RejZoR]

But you could also save anytime you wanted...

The chick lived in Dark Messiah?

 

[HookeyStreet]

Of course not. It's just as easy to hit the start button and manually press save as it is to do the same on a PC.

 

[Over_Lord]

exactly my point

 

[RejZoR]

As far as i can remember she did. I left her on some stairs before the final boss and dealt with him on my own.

How Crytek Doomed Crysis 2's PC Version

 

[HalfAHertz]

Ok stop it already people! This has been blown out of proportions. So Crysis 2 is Dx9, so what? The first two were Dx9 too, they added the Dx10 patch in the end of the design phase and it didn't really do anything except make a demanding game even more demanding.

The game looks great, denying that would be like lying to yourself. If you're still doubting that, just play the first one again and just see how much more detail they have crammed in each scene this time around.

The gameplay is not as diverse but that is because the setting of the game is totally different. They moved from the tropic jungle to the concrete jungle! It's called artistic license or creative freedom. Give the game a chance - the new setting means that the game may be somewhat limited in certain cases but will present new and unique challenges that stem from the new environment.

I prefer the city setting much more because after farcry, crysis and warhead the jungle motif was beginning to get old.

Let's give it some time, let the dust settle and see what the modding community will come up with in a few months.

that's a lot to expect people to swallow for a 60$ game.

 

[erixx]

a lot, for consoles maybe , lol
I payed 22 sterlings

I am with halfaherz, the people that is already shooting with the SP campaign, mostly say it is MAXIMUM IMPRESSIVE, haha

 

[HalfAHertz]

The prices will drop like all other games. I personally will wait till it's in the 25-30$ range on steam. And to be honest this game is definitely much more worth the money compared to the other shit that publishers have been trying to feed us recently. (looking at you Activision)
