Old Ceph Design for Crysis 2 Pls vote

Post » Thu May 19, 2011 12:13 am

Are here any people who are confused from the new ceph desing?

Of course the aliens of crysis are over 2 million years old. While the ceph from part one were sleeping the others develop themselves and their technology. The thing I dislike is that the anatomy and the design are completely difference to the first game. In my opinion the colour of the jelly (ceph skin) should have the blue from the first game. And the ships of the aliens shouldn't have red runes, they should have blue ones. These differences disturbe atmosphere!

At the bottom of my thread you can see a picture of a ceph commander which I have edited with paint. So it isn't really good but it should show you what I mean

If there are any people who agree with me, pls write I agree and a short text why. With your votes I write a e-mail to crytek to ask for a free dlc. I think the change of colours shouldn't be to much work for them. And if they say "no to much work, for no money!" then I try to find a group of people who wan't to make a fanmod with me, when the sandbox for crysis 2 is released.

For some votes I'll thank you in advance.

Yes, why not....
old aliens were much better, were more "alien" should be.
Current resemble others already have seen thousands of times, are not original.

Hope to see new ones in multiplayer, playing like an alien will be definetly the best thing i can expect about this game.

Youre not following the story... old aliens are GONE! poof destroyed... they had to draw back into the sea and made new generation which are improved and far far better. Old aliens normal soldiers could kill but these super aliens only nanosuit soldiers can kill and i think that it would be really retarded to see **** flying around you. But again this is just my opinion.

Regular marines "can" kill either Ceph variation, they just aren't very good at it and die by the APC-load in the process. Both variations also had area-denial systems that were only effective against non-Nanosuited humans although the cryosphere was nuke proof (doubt a spore cloud is).

I think the blue ones suited fine for snowy environments where they were mostly encountered, but couldn't think of them in urban environments in Crysis 2. The red suits rubbly city environments way better.

I think the old design looks much better then the new. I will make further picturs, perhaps then you have a better idea what I' m meaning.

Yes crysis 2 is a good game. But they had the chance to expand the nice story about the ceph from part 1. The problem is, the way of becoming acquainted with the ceph start in part 2 from the beginning. I had a kind of rage after I saw in the first game how the aliens killed the people and destroyed the fleet of US navy. These rage was far away in part two. I sit there and thought "hmm, ok new aliens" all my experiences were away. In my opinion it is a duty of a saga to show me more about something I know. Not to show me alway new things! The only game which has the right to do this is Final Fantasy!

A small looking in my fantasy how crysis should look like:
I think that a frozen New York would be a better idea then these from Crysis 2. The snowy streets with the frozen people. You see the sights of these once glorious city in a frightening calm. In the subwaystations you find suriving camps of cell. Instead of a disease the hunger causes unrest. The cell agents have to decide who surives and who not because they haven't enough food. Imaging the "The Wall Trailer" in these New York. Your Helicopters get shoot up. You are not just a normal marine you are a US special force soldier equiped with the nanosuit 1.0. Thats why you surived these crash. But your suit is damaged. The last thing you saw was a other soldier with a other nanosuit. Who is he?

They are still so flabby like before, but they got a suit to get over the gravity the suit makes them stronger, with the suit the Sephs are able to survive the gravity.
So the aliens are the same like before. xD

The Seph have developed their weapons, systems and their warfare, to get even stronger.
We humans are same, we have developed our nanotechnology to get even stronger, the result is the Nanosuit 2. :D

The only thing which looks similar between the aliens of 1 and 2 is that they are jellyfishs xD. Everything else changed. x(

It's not a matter of opinion at all, the old aliens were more dangerous and challenging. The new aliens, including their strongest ground unit (Pinger) are pathetically easy to beat even on top difficulty.

As for aesthetics, the Aliens should have had colouring consistent with the previous title for the sake of continuity, but seeing as I don't consider C2 a real sequel to Crysis, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

EDIT: and there was a MASSIVE wasted opportunity to take advantage of the frozen landscapes etc that could have been created.

I like the new design better, it give a better street combat feel that the old ones could never deliver. I like the red it gives it more of a robot look like terminator. The new ships could have been better they look like an osprey twin rotor helicopter thats silly. They should ditch the two circular thing's on the sides and put the propulsion on the bottom, and the color of the engine should be like a grey wind with black spot's rushing threw it, Now that would be cool.

How about this...use both...make the new aliens like part of the old ones, those flying jellyfish were brutal, they were interesting and flying aliens in new york would own over foot soldiers any day. The old aliens were ausum, chalanging and original.

Holy moly man, what did you make that image out of??! Crayons???

Changing the color tone of the Ceph from Red to Blue would pretty much fix it all for me, nothing else needs to be changed in my opinion.

Aliens like Halo work better for console players and why they are in Crysis 2. I like the aliens from Crysis 1 better.

This just came to my mind...floating/flying Ceph would make them look alot more extraterrestrial.

HA, just like nanosuit V1.0 was so last year. You pwned with this response.


and Cloud2405 I very agree.
I love both of the Ceph's really.
Blue ones where so majestic all flyin' around lookin' badass.
but the red ones look like they have some tude, they shoot dah shiz out of you then they go on the the next guy.

BUT my good friend. In Crysis Warhead there was red Ceph [the big ones that fly, and the one you kill with the PAX]. Maybe they where doing the transfer from red to blue. Coz they got pissed, so they are fuming red.
but this is not the only unanswered question that remands. There is so much unanswered stuff from Crysis.

So I cannot really vote... I love both of them really.
