Ceph in MP

Post » Wed Oct 27, 2010 7:59 am

Would anyone like to see a multiplayer game type where you fight against the Ceph? I think it would be fun to have a chance to fight aliens, and not just other nanosuited soldiers.

It would be cool. And in that type of game, there are different types they can do. Maybe wave invasions could be cool.

I think a co-op gametype would be fun with ever-increasing difficulty of Ceph to finish off with a Pinger or multiple Pingers. It would be sweet!!

Maybe like Halo where it's Spartans versus Elites. I think that would be cool.

I guess Crytek was probably unable to develop co-op mode in time ... I hope they add later in the game as DLC ...

Multiple Pingers should be hellish fun LOL ... don't mind seeing a bunch of Ceph Guardian Units!

Yeah that would be pretty cool, but am i the only one that wishes that they put in a co-op campaign? Not quite halo reach style, but kinda close to it?

I'd go for this too. They could totally do a "Firefight" type of game mode wiith the Ceph. The fact many of the ceph are deployed by gunship would make it easy for more enemies to appear on the map. Fighting regular enemies then moving up to big dudes and even cloaked Ceph. That'd be sweet.

I'd also totally enjoy have a Human vs Ceph mode. Where one team play as the Ceph and the other as humans.

OR even go nuts with a CELL vs Marines Vs Ceph game type.

It'd be cool to see how the Ceph see. Alien looking HUD with alien sounding suit. I'd go for that. It's ad depth to the Ceph too, story wise. Maybe there could even be alternate suit modes depending on Ceph class. Instead of Cloak and Armour, Cloak and Agility or something. If you could somehow make the Ceph's crazy leaping about easy to use for the player. lol..

This would actually be really interesting DLC. Games like Black Ops and Halo: Reach seem to just release new maps. New game modes with a new playable faction would keep things really interesting. AND if released after all multiplayer issues are ironed out, might actually draw back players that left Crysis 2 MP soon after launch.

For gameplay, Yes. I do think it'd be fun. But I think it'd also subtract a lot from the story. You go from being a lone wolf, super-soldier with a rare nanosuit, hunted by CELL throughout New York.

To being a super-soldier and his unknown, never before mentioned friend, who shares the exact same abilities...

Lol, now that i think about it, it wouldnt be such a good idea storywise. Maybe a seperate arcade-like game mode?

That's not a bad idea actually. Just have similarly sized areas with ha bunch of enemies within for you and a friend to mess with. You could get some really cool cloak and dagger stuff going like that.

On the PS2 version of the original Half-Life it had a unique Co-Op campaign that actually followed the story of two other scientists at the Black Mesa Facility. Something like that for Cryrsis 2 would be awesome. I don't think it'll ever happen. But in one of Prophet's flashbacks he's seen jumping out of a plane with a second guy. Maybe you could play as him and Prophet, in New York just before Crysis 2 starts.

Who knows it could ever come to pass that it was Prophet's investigation into the Ceph that released the alien virus into Manhattan in the first place!

Pretty-cool idea...

Co-op campaign simply wouldn't fit the story line, and that's about the only reason I see for it not being present in the game.

Can't wait for Gears of War 3 though!!

It wasn't another guy, it was his whole squad, that was him deploying onto the Lingshan islands in crysis 1.
That guy was probably nomad, who is MIA, along with Psycho.
