Your character spends most of the game being mistaken for Prophet, and he never corrects them, because he is a silent protagonist. ![]() You’re only wearing the suit because its previous owner, Prophet (the guy from the first game, I’m assuming) was dying and needed you to complete his mission. But there is also an infection of some sort spreading, and numerous humans see you as a point of interest because of the super-powered nanosuit you’re wearing. I can tell you that Earth is being overrun by squishy aliens who may have landed from space or may in fact be digging their way up from underground, and you’d think that would be simple enough. ![]() But the game thrusts you into the thick of this futuristic world without any explanation of the series’ prior events, and as such, I was surprisingly lost for most of the campaign. And that’s good, because I wouldn’t have played Crysis 2 otherwise. people who’ve spent a lot of money beefing up their PCs and want to justify their investment), but EA chose to bring its sequel to a larger audience, probably because they’re still angry that Call of Duty exists and have realized that they’ve got another shooter IP at their disposal. The original game was tailored for a very specific audience (i.e. This is where I would lay down the plot, but you’ve caught me at a bit of a loss. It stands out, and in the industry’s current state, I value that. Crytek grants us the ability to turn invisible, leap from the roof of a very tall building and power-kick a parked car into an enemy soldier’s face all within the span of a few seconds, and it’s for those moments that Crysis 2 doesn’t blur together with the pack of steely grey twitch shooters on the market. My conscience can rest easy, however, because Crysis 2 is easily worth checking out for reasons that go beyond looks (and given how long it is, thank Christ for that). Had Crysis 2 sucked, I’d still choke up a recommendation if only so you could witness the game’s drool-inducing final set piece. Here’s a team that recognizes how talented its artists are and uses sheer spectacle to the game’s advantage it’s the kind of thing that actually elevates the material. Crytek isn’t afraid to wave it in your face, either. I’ve played Killzone 2 and Final Fantasy XIII – the PS3 version, mind – and I’m comfortable in saying that Crysis 2 is as pretty a console game as has ever been made. I’ve played the sequel, but I played it on Xbox 360, and apparently the PC version smokes its console counterparts in the visual department, which, I mean, holy crap. ![]() I never played the first Crysis, and it’ll probably stay that way for the next two decades or so, until I finally get my hands on a machine powerful enough to run it. Crytek grants us the ability to turn invisible, leap from the roof of a very tall building and power-kick a parked car into an enemy soldier’s face all within the span of a few seconds, and it’s for those moments that Crysis 2 doesn’t blur together with the pack of steely grey twitch shooters on the market." The AI of the bots on the higher difficulty levels is fantastic and really challenging, I'm still enjoying this feature of the game even to this day." Crysis 2 is easily worth checking out for reasons that go beyond looks (and given how long it is, thank Christ for that). You just choose the amount of bots, the AI difficulty level, the map, your faction, your class, your weapons and your good to go. ![]() It is also a good feature you can use to hone your skills and getting to know the maps before going online.ĭoing something like this is possible, Killzone 2's offline MP (aka "Skirmish") is a brilliant example. Sure it is not as awesome as playing against other people, but it is better than nothing. Unfortunately not all people (like myself) has a decent internet connection to play the online MP, so if we can have this I will be really happy. I was just wondering if Crytek can look into creating an offline MP mode where you can play against AI controlled bots at different difficulty levels. Greetings! Some may know me from the InCrysis community so first of all I would just like to say hi to everyone!!
