Most of us have known that for a while now

but i saw prophet in the trailer too. hes the only black man, kinda hard to miss him, lol
(im not racist, im black i can say that :p)
so what happened to the rest of raptor squad?
ar they still on the island or just dead?
and why is Alcatraz fighting humans too?
i am confused

My guess is he either, (A) stole/borrowed the suit OR (B) both factions want the suits power for war. I hope the writers are more original.

dont worry, crytek is taking inspiration from VALVe (ya know, the best game makers of all time?)
im sure C2 will be epic

Actually what I've noticed is that this game is having some heavy inspiration from Cloverfield...valve is not influencing this game.

I thought alcatraz was being played by Oneil from warhead, he's the only other person besides nomad I can think of who could use the nanosuit like that in new york. Cuz when you see Prophet in the trailer, they're two guys behind him? Both with M249's??

That is those CryNet security forces that are behind Prophet.

Crynet security ??

Frankly O'neil as Alcatraz would be lame. He wasn't a good character (in my opinion) unless they change his personality. I'd rather see a new character rather than bring back a crappy one.

Crynet security ??

why not have the mp people showing some eyes! face, mouth, etc. crysis mp is horrible to other fps, u don't feel like u kill people, just bloody almost faceless robots. people "attach" and feel things from seeing FACES!!!!!! its like killing a person kinda, rather than an object. why u think in rl people complain at times of berkas and people wearing sunglasses in doors. FACES...PLEASE! lol, i know this will fall on death ears though

.... sp when u saw their faces it was better in the cut scenes

people <=> faces

In MP, Crysis was all about the Nanosuit. Both sides had Nanosuits because if one side was normal, and the other had the suit, then it would be unfair.

I would like to see faces, but I think Crytek didn't want to waste time on making facial expressions when one team player dies.

@Sahdev_92 Keyed Animations can be imported onto any character that shares the same Rig. (and even sometimes when they don't)

I would assume the Technical Director decided to use a similar Joint Rig and Labeling Convention for all the Humanoids. Maybe another Rig is used for the Aliens because of their tentacles, and then of course Character Specific Rigs for vehicles.

If this is in fact the case, it is no different in applying the animation to all/most of the characters. My guess is that Crytek covered the head to allow Player to put them in the driver seat. There are also speculations that you are not supposed to have the suit, which might explain why both sides are after you, and could eventually reveal a face for the Main Character.

I'd agree, I would like facial customization as it is pretty standard for a lot of EA games lately (from Fight Night, to Mass Effect). :]
