Infamous: Second Son |OT| Smells Like Beanie Spirit
- Thread starter BurnOutBrighter

Reminds me of this Mass Effect 1 Insanity bullshit. Seriously how hard is it make the difficulty selectable before starting the game?
I guess, I don't care about achievements so that didn't bother me. Just wanted to say that on the flip side, I loved that you could switch difficult on the fly. Played the whole game on expert, and then bumped it down for the boss fights.

What?! I didn't know that...
You had time to change the difficulty in ME1. You have no time to change it in Second Son.
:/
tried, and it didn't work. Something mos l must be wrong!
Did anybody else get the cat question in the first mission in paper trail??
Just finished last night (good). I loved every minute, but still feel that inFamous 2 is my favorite. In particular, the
was less present in this one, something that I miss from the previous titles.
This made it less fun to fight enemies and to explore, but still was a great time. Most beautiful PS4 game I've played yet too.
fantastic and monstrous, both in enemies and architecture,

I honestly don't know if you'll get it or not. Before you get to Seattle
you chase after Hank in the burning building and

You might be fine ZeroMaverick

Not at all I'd assume. I'm not sure why they don't have it. At the very least, they could do it like Infamous 1 where it evaluated your first battle for the difficulty setting and you could change it right at that moment if you didn't like what they gave you.
I moved before turning it to expert but I still got the trophy.
At a certain point, there will be a yellow exclamation mark on your map.
It's garbage and I don't even think it's worth bothering with.
not sure if serious? if serious the answer is yes, also, go have a look on the nextgen screenshots thread just in case you want to think about it before buying the game
Yeah. I heard it's not great.
The Jacket you get is sweet tho.
So I already did a evil playthrough on normal, and I just started my good playthrough but I completely forgot to switch to Expert. I'm right at
...is it too late to turn it to Expert and get the trophy? I'm thinking about just starting over to make sure.
the end of the destroyed bridge before you first enter Seattle
No it's not. Cole's jacket is just as shit as Cole himself.
Nobody wore his Jacket once they got the better attire in Infamous 2. Like the reaper.
Any cool landmarks to see after endgame? Little things to go looking for? I never did see that Superbowl champs poster that they added right at the end of development.
And some other thoughts: ENDGAME SPOILERS!!

I was okay with the ending. I wasn't expecting something huge like the first two games, this one seemed (even before release) more on a personal level of how conduits and humans view and deal with one another as people, and I thought it was handled pretty well.
I'm mildly annoyed that Concrete doesn't have random drain points like the other powers do. I haven't dumped many shards into it yet (beat the game on Sunday, Good playthrough, and haven't had much of a chance to play since then), but it actually seems more fun than Video after the first couple of minutes (can't wait to get Endless running, Hulk-Smash style), but you've got to go hunting for fights to reload, which is kind of annoying when I just want to run around and goof off.
Seeing what happened when I tried to climb a building with it was pretty funny, though. With Smoke, you just stop moving, but with Concrete, he flat-out slammed into the building, literally running head first into a brick wall. Wish there was a way to get to rooftops with it, since its hover mode seems a lot more robust than the others.. I feel I could float most of the way across the city if I was high enough.

I did played a few minutes of IF2 and not IF1, I guess that's why I kinda like it, is new to me.
Really loved Second Son, definitely the best in the series for me personally, but man, Cole's Legacy was such a let down. Not sure why they even bothered. They could have released it as
a transcript on paper in the manual and it would have achieved the same purpose.
Getting to rooftops with Concrete is super easy since when you hit X again, you go upwards, I managed to get to the very top of the space needle with it, but that area is extremely glitched as there's no area for you to stand, so you just slide off when you get to the very top. This upwards movement may require an upgrade, I can't remember.
Thanks mate.
So I got my plat this morning on my evil expert run through. Great game. I wish concrete didn't feel so unfinished.
I want extra missions for this game. I also wish there was a co-op mode with Fetch. PEACE.
Or maybe it had to be nerfed since it's so powerful. It especially sucks that you can't drain any of the concrete in the city.

How else will you get Cole's jacket?

Tons of fun, though it felt like the game really hit the high point when you get Neon and just sort of tapers off from there, partially due to so many Big Dumb Boss Fights.
DLC North Seattle with a Sound powerset, please.

Played the first 2 hours yesterday.
I haven't been this giddy playing a game in a long time. Roommates and gf were gathered around the room gaping at what we saw on the screen. Every new move reveal just hyped us more and more. It's been said ad-nauseum, but I simply can't believe this is a first-wave game. This is going to be an awesome generation. What a great time to be a gamer.

Eye candy!
Upgrade Cynder Blast if you're playing evil. It's really powerful.
Terrible draw distance.
I'm wondering the same thing. Can anybody answer this?
Platinum'd it the other day, such a fantatic and beautiful game. There's a few problems it has with it but the positives far outweigh it for me.
I'm really looking forward the next Paper Trail missions and the eventual DLC for it, although I do wonder where they'll go story wise with it, Festival of Blood was a sidestory so I'm curious as to if they'll go that route or go with some post-ending content.
Does anyone know what the track when you're up against the final boss is called? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
