I don't know if any of you are particularly interested, but Crysis on Twitter posted a free 50 page exerpt from the upcoming Crysis book, which seems to explain the story more clearly.

Was the 'gappy' story in campaign intended so you'd buy the book? I don't know, but enjoy the read, it's not half bad.

..And this book actually clarifies that Alcatraz's larynx WAS crushed in the initial **** with the Alien ship; thus explaining why he never speaks.. Bad times.

About the crushed larynx part, I honestly can't tell if it is his voice or Prophet's. Maybe I should check the VAs.

No one is credited as Alcatraz in the credits. So that was Prophet's voice.

I must admit, after restarting the campaign it was definitely Prophet's voice.

Is anything about Psycho or Nomad in it ?

Not in the preview. It pretty much covers the first part of the game in more detail; your escape from the sub, your near death and most of the mission 'second chance'.
