Hmm, I have both a Dutch and an American PSN Store account, but on both Crysis isn't available yet. Come the fuck on, Sony!

Got two achievements before shuttin er down, Zoologist or something for picking up a turtle, and then Trouble Parking or something to that effect for getting to the cutscene with the frozen boat where
a ceph snags Jester
.

I have nothing in my games played list, not 100% sure about an increase in gamerscore. I guess I'll play the level from the start once the patch is released. Having just finished re-beating Crysis on PC on very high with my new video card, tonight, I'm very impressed by the new lighting. The polycounts on your fellow squad mates especially seems rather laughable though. Runs smoother and handles better on 360 than Crysis 2.

I may just hold off if that's the case.

Can anyone on here confirm if the achievements are upping their gamer-score?

Yeah my gamerscore has gone up on the console, but not on xbox.com

Also, you seem to deal at least 40% more bullet damage to Korean soldiers, and the jeep drives at least 20% faster. I blew through the opening area in record time.

Sounds good

Enemies tended to be sponges (strength mode mitagated this a little) in PC version and yeah, there wasn't really an incentive to even use vehicles in the original as you could easily sprint and cover much more area without riding around in a giant bulleyse.

I have yet to play crysis 2 outside of the beta but the game looks real nice so far, the night time stuff is very dark compared to the pc version, just about to find aztec.

Might be the same as crysis 2 but you hold X to power throw or hold jump to power jump, I have no problem with that tbh, LS click to maximum speed sprint.

Starting rifle sounds better then pc sounds but that might be my new 5.1 setup.

Worth 1840 points so far, I always liked crysis but on pc I never had the pad controls work too well and I would be too picky with mods and graphics tweaks then to actually play it.

Weren't the English voices only in Warhead? The lady voice in Crysis is American, IIRC.

No, Nanosuit female voice in Crysis PC is British. Man voice is DudeBro-ish.

Always the first thing I change when I load up a new game of Crysis. So much cooler and was a bit sad they didn't include it in Crysis2.

Played for close to an hour or so and so far I'm extremely impressed by this port. Plenty of foliage around (which bends as you walk through it), lighting looks gorgeous, textures look great considering the scope, and the frame rate is mostly solid so far.

Not being able to run after you run out of energy was one of my biggest complaints in Crysis 2, well they kind of fixed that in Crysis 1. Maximum speed is still mapped to the left analog stick, but once you run out of energy, you keep on running but at a slower pace.

So far it looks better overall than Crysis 1 on my 3 year old $1500 gaming laptop, so for that alone I'm pleased.

Wow it plays really well and looks stunning, very impressed so far about 20 minutes in. When did you guys get the first achievo points as i aint got any yet and it isnt showing on the games list.

I picked up a turtle and threw it in the water for my first achievement. =p

Can I still enable my pretty british lady suit voice?

Please say yes

Female voice is still in. Good thing too since I was disappointed the option wasn't in Crysis 2.

Edit:

Now that I think about it, not sure if the female voice is british, sorry wasn't paying attention. =/

Until you
found out the suit's voice is Prophet's voice, right?
Click to expand...

I always thought
that wasn't Prophet's voice, but him talking through the suit (which is why he sounded like the suit). I'll have to beat Crysis 2 again soon, but thinking about it that way sounds so stupid to me. Why would he continuously announce what suit powers he is using?

Either way, that aspect of the story was my least favorite TBH.

Don't feel too bad, I was dumb enough to play it before I left for work. Now this day is going to draaaaag because I want to get home and get back into it.

Maybe. I always thought the suit 'absorbed' Prophet's personality. Hence Alcatraz saying, at the very end, "They call me Prophet" with Prophet's voice.

I personally enjoyed all that junk. It was hilariously more sci-fi than Crysis 1 in contrast :p

COmbat feels a little more balanced now, less bullets to kill koreans on hard mode right now, suit energy regens faster when not using a skill so hopefully the end game has been tweaked too.

Yeah,
that's what I always thought too, but I still wouldn't consider that Prophet's voice since he sounds different. I still wonder if Alcatraz was/is dead or if the suit is just creating a symbiosis relationship with it's new host while retaining some aspects (personality, memory, etc) from it's previous user (prophet).

I enjoy the story, I just don't care for the plot holes.

Game is very pretty, but the checkpoint implementation is really irritating me. It seems entirely location-based and not situation-based, meaning if you cross the invisible checkpoint trigger when you're in a dire situation and near death, you're screwed.

If you're going to remove manual saving from a game that was originally designed and balanced for it, you need to be very careful with checkpoint placement and implementation. It feels like an afterthought so far.

That sounds annoying, the only way to fix this is to add like 20% ekstra life on respawn if you die, at least if you have under 50%.

I'll hold off for a few days. I'm worried since you guys are saying that Crysis 2 had the same problem and hasn't been fixed yet. :(

To be fair, the suit voice in Crysis 2 is a story element since it's
Prophet

Why should I wait while other consumers get to play it? We are in the digital age, why do they need to wait a specific hour to push content?
