I think it would be amazing if this game had a fully electronic soundtrack. Imagine if Solar Fields did it (Mirror's Edge).NotTarts said:
I just started hitting the nighttime levels. Right now I'm in the central area with the Pinger and the infinitely respawning Ceph grunts. There was a video posted of that level last week. Holy crap. I love it when the game goes into Hunter vs. Hunter mode. I wish the entire game was like this. This kind of combat is so exhilarating.

A passionate embrace, a beautiful memory lingers.
I've put in a few hours of the SP and MP and it is really growing on me. I wasn't so pleased with either at first, too. Definitely going to try pushing a finish on the SP today. Playing on the second hardest difficulty I think. I don't remember the name. Feels pretty solid. Rarely do I feel over powered, and switching to shield has been saving my ass quite often. I think I'm starting to prefer this way with the powers over the first.

I'll believe it when I see it.
Does it not bother anyone that:
Is every other Cell soldier in the game...I mean how many times do i have to kill the guy.
Im pretty sure he was one of the marines in the sub at the beginning of the game too.
But seriously, having pretty much 80% of enemy soldiers being voiced by the same guy with no change in tone is a pretty major oversight in a highly cinematic game in this day and age.

Yeah, it's definitely annoying. I just try to imagine he gets away every time.
lol, every time I hear him, I'm like, "hey it's you!"AEREC said:Does it not bother anyone that:

Took me a second to place where I've heard that voice before.

On 360 I installed the game and will frequently be the first one to load up a map. I get host A LOT, so I think there is some correlation on being first into a room and getting the host. If you're on 360, installing the game could mitigate lag.Patrick Bateman said:
I wasn't saying stop talking about SP or tech stuff, was just asking if things will eventually swing over to MP or if I'm gonna have to resort to another place/thread for MP talk.
Feels like there's loads of nuances to learn with all the abilities and complicated map design. Loving it.

I hope to god we get more Crysis within a year. I don't like having to wait for so long. Maybe even two mini expansions, one for Psycho and one for Nomad? Like five levels a piece and filling in what happened to them?
I just need more.

So I think my Crysis is still on 1.0 and that's why I can't find any servers.
When I try to apply the patch (got the game through EADM so no Steam auto-patching for me) it tells me that it can't find my Crysis 2 install and that I should reinstall. Fuck that. I'm not gonna redownload over 8 gigs.

Your quote was...
DennisK4 said:
My point was, no they haven't really done a fine job at working within the constraints of consoles. Just because the game "works", does not mean they did a fine job of it. Unless your standards in that respect are quite low and "works" is comparable to "fine job". For me just working is very different to working damn fine. Imo the performance on consoles is not acceptable and more concessions should have been made to bring the performance up to par.

Is it the auto patcher that is breaking? There was a thread on that, this may help

Agreed, I love the feel of multiplayer. It has the basic CoD mechanics, but the nano suit introduces enough nuances (love the superjump) to make everything feel fresh. Having dog tags related to killstreak bonuses is a fantastic idea as well.
Aaah, this game has been the perfect cure to my Homefront hangover. If only the release dates were swapped around I would have saved £36 
Quick question: do the bigger aliens (that drop 500 nano dust) a) have visible weakspots and b) have nanovision or whatever its called? They always take an age to drop (I've put 3 JAV in one once and still had to finish it off with the SCAR) and always seem to spot me even when cloaked and a fair distance away.

Also, people getting spotted in cloak, are you letting it fully cloak you before you run out? It isn't like in Crysis 1 where cloaking is instant.

It will happen continually till the end of the game on checkpoint reloads and game restarts. Fortunately, the final level has 4 enemies at the end with 5k a piece so it's pretty easy to grab some of the bigger ones that you are missing in that level and once you get them they don't disappear like the nanotech. I'm gonna use that level to get the final two upgrades I'm missing for my replay.EviLore said:

I think you can draw a direct line of progression between Crysis, Crysis Warhead, and Crysis 2.StuBurns said:
Crysis 1 released right alongside Call of Duty 4. They saw their PC-only game go on to sell a respectable 3+ million (how high is it now? who knows) while COD4 went on to sell nearly 20 million (or more at this point) across all 3 platforms and become the biggest FPS franchise in history. I don't see how this kind of disparity could *not* inform their design choices in a huge way.
Crysis 1 had multiplayer that mostly took after the biggest PC FPS at the time - Battlefield 2. It had large expansive battlefields, vehicles, and capture points, while adding its own twists. It didn't even ship with Team Deathmatch. After the success of COD4 the one multiplayer mode they added to Warhead was... Team Deathmatch. Now we have Crysis 2 with multiplayer that literally tries to be Call of Duty's small scale, small player count, progression-based combat with nanosuits.

I hopped on for the first time last night and had no trouble getting a game in the beginner's room. And that was around 1am EST.
