Crysis 2 Power mode

Post » Mon Aug 31, 2009 6:53 am

Ok, so i been watching all the new Videos from E3 and they have showed Maximum stealth,Tactical Mode and Even Armour mode. But they never showed my favorite mode Maximum Power Which is speed and strength combined. The only time i saw Power mode was in the GTTV Special Episode 314, Our new Protagonist Alcatraz was Killing Crynet-ops as-well as The new Aliens, But then Alcatraz Switches to power mode and jumps down a Very High Building and lands on the glass roof with a very militaristic Looking Land SO EPIC!

So, please Crytek please Show me Power mode! i only seen it once!

Crysis 2 looks amazing! Just don't change or get rid of anything like you did before release of Crysis 1 i was pretty pissed

We have seen it a lot actually. It was in the pinger fight when he ran across to the missile launcher and jumped.

I saw it used when kicking the Taxi Cab onto the alien.

Something that excited me was seeing a cool slide along the ground. not sure if that was just for evasive purposes or if you can use it in attack.

Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the suit was reduced to 2 modes in Crysis 2 ("Armor" and "Stealth")? With the combined "Strength" and "Speed" being always active (in a way) when you need the power boost?

Or am I completely misinterpreting the videos and what they've said?

Nah, they have said "tactical mode" they have also said "stealth mode" and then we have the "armor mode" (and theyve said that one adds some upper body strength, no idea wtf that means) and then we have "power mode" which is basically speed and strength combined.

Not "POWER". but yes Armour mode adds some extra strength now. but the FULL Strength is Power mode its a Yellowish-green shown in the GTTV Debut gameplay Video when Alcatraz Switches to power mode and jumps down the building

I think that the yellowish green shown in the GTTV Debut gameplay Video was actually a placeholder for one of the Nanosuit modes (flashing metal parts instead of the nanofiber like in Crysis1 was weird, it looked like they inverted the alpha channel used to mask those flashing effects). Now the new effect is the hexagon net/web gets bumpier when in armor mode.

The awesome SCAR 2 with carry handle, shown at that gameplay trailer, was also replaced with the SCARAB, a simplier version without carry handle. I want the SCAR 2 back!

Slightly of subject, but what was that slide along the ground. Part of one of the modes or a an extra overall ability?

I see the maximum strength mode in a short part of the world exclusive of the GT TV trailers but the red colour of the nanosuit is dificult to apreciate

the SCARAB doesnt replace anything, watch the 3D trailer (can hardly believe you havent), scar 2 is the main weapon, lets hope they give us enough ammo this time.

that was probably neither but actually part of the cover system. in many games with cover systems your character automatically does slides like that when you press the cover button metres away from the object you want to use.
