Crysis 2

Was that old dude in Crysis 1? Because half that trailer until he appeared I thought it was someone else accusing Prophet of experimenting on the squad or something.

I understood none of that trailer

Wooo glad to see him back. But yeah, like Mazy said, don't understand anything lol.

Looks like it's going to have more story focus, which is good.

What's not to get in that trailer .

far-cry and crysis are to me definite contenders for the "worst story ever"-award (only bionic commando can trump them really) and this looks to me like its gonna join right in with its predecessors

but the soundtrack in the trailer is totally epic ! :derp:

From the trailer it'd seem Prophet (your team leader in Crysis 1) was given a second version of the Nanosuit which was to be a vital part of fighting the looming alien threat — presumably improved after the events of Crysis which as this trailer reveals was an exercise to test how the suits would fare against the aliens.

But then Prophet did a runner with what I'm guessing is the only prototype of the new suit, and they want it back. For some reason Prophet needs to pass the suit on, and for some reason Alcatraz is his candidate of choice.

Quite why they don't just make more Nanosuit 2s I've no idea. Maybe the suit has some kind of special one-off capability that makes it critical for fighting the aliens, or maybe there's some kind of information stored in it. I dunno.

Nomad and Psycho better show up too.

I actually liked this more than the story trailer. Filled in a lot of blanks.

PC demo is out here: http://www.nofrag.com/2011/mar/01/37108/

w00t! Downloading now

EDIT: Guessing the server's located in France, only getting a little over 300kb/s No matter, was in the middle of texturing a piece

count yourself lucky, i'm getting between 1 and 15 kb/s from here (20 on a good day)

Holy hell, the MP looks AMAZING, even more excited for the SP now. Running it on hardcore and it's silky smooth too on my q6600, gtx 260, 8gb ram.

Played only one round, but seems like there's a lot of strats to play around with. Still getting used to using the nanosuit and such, but I'm liking it so far.

SUPER SMOOTH FRAMERATE!!!!!!! better than crysis 1 framerate

wicked job guys, its awesome on hardcore. seriously fun as hell game

I can't get passed the F*CKING login screen. Creating an account results in an endless loop animation of 'Creating Account'...

EDIT: Finally went through, guess their servers are getting swamped.

Had a few rounds of MP just now. The game runs very well on GAMER graphics setting (HARDCORE dropped my FPS like a rock) and looks good too. Gameplay-wise, it's mixed opinions ... you can't shake the feeling that the game wants to be like Call of Duty (killstreaks and perks similar to it). Moving around is good as long as you have energy .. but when depleted you move at a snails pace, and the sniper rifle has a mind of its own, so it could use a stability meter or something, cause my bullets were going anywhere but straight.

However, Crysis 2 multiplayer is far less rage-inducing comparing to Call of Duty! That's good! The parkour is a nice way to move around, no ridiculous instant melee kills unless you're stealthed and behind the enemy, overall pace is ok, and grenade spam just doesn't exist.
