Crytek I have a suggestion to improve POW mode! MAX SPEED?

Post » Tue Feb 01, 2011 9:20 am

Instead of the useless airstomp and suit friction module,
Change it to something like maximum speed that improves speed by about 1.5-2.5 times at the cost of more energy.
Also, add a weapon pro to single player.
That would kinda bring back the awesome -ness of max speed from C1
What do you guys think?

I think they should bring back normal sprint, and have power mode actually be the dual maximum strength/speed mode it's supposed to be.

But it won't happen. Gamepads would have too much trouble hitting someone running so fast.

It's called using inferior hardware.. with aim assist.

air stomp is not useless, try to fall from a high building without that equip, you will see the different. beside its hard to master it of course, but once you do its not going to be useless even online. maybe they should boost up the speed of sprinting a bit more that will make it better, no need for speed mode.

There should be normal sprint, and MAXIMUM SPEED.. cos u cant really walk everywhere to save energy... U should be able to Cloak and Sprint, Not Max. Speed & Amour and Sprint, Not Max Speed - But Max Speed without cloak and amour will balance the suit out well, i think..

I miss Maximum speed more than anything. We need some sort of Max speed!

^This is what I've been saying. I'm glad somebody agrees with me.

I wonder how they could implement that on a gamepad though. I imagine the suggestion of click L3 to sprint normally, and hold L3 to use power sprint would work. As it is it works for 'steady aiming'.

i'm curious how prophet suddenly doubled in mass as well.


Well, you see on the Nanosuit v2.0 has artificial muscle. That is why Prophet, and Alcatraz look totally ripped. I hope we are talking about the same thing here. But yeah, you usually would not find any normal marine that washed up on the beach that had that type of build. I know this from the back of the Nanosuit v2.0 7 inch Neca action figure.

But I know how you all feel about the speed rubbish, how speed sort of got demolished. I kind of like it since it is more accessible now, but it is annoying how it drains your energy while doing it.

It makes no sense at all for sprint to be attached to your energy. You dont have to have infinite sprint but to only be able to run when your suit has energy?! Not much of a super soldier. And make air stomp standard. Why a perk? Almost like having jump as a perc.

I'd say on a gamepad Maximum Speed should work with a double tap (I dont play with a gamepad so I don't know which button it is) like double tap run to maximum speed, then tap again to stop maximum speed ? then just normal sprint will be just hold sprint as normal? sounds like sense - does anyone use a gamepad that can say if that will work out?

isn't that an armor module? and thats only level 2 or 3?
sprinting would be great if you could use it to escape or something
the more you push the left stick forward while sprinting the faster you sprint but the more energy you consume or sprint much faster but have an energy recharge delay (so it balances out so you only use it when you need it) that gets cancelled out by energy recharge?

Speed mode in itself was just pure awesomeness though, it made you do everything faster instead of just running. The fact that's removed in favour of putting perks like CoD's 'sleight of hand' in is a ripoff. We had that before without having to give up something else!
