Random Camoed Ceph during Campaign? * Spoiler alert *

Post » Fri Oct 29, 2010 12:17 am

Has anyone else noticed these? its the same guys that you face at the end of the last mission, They stalk you then just run off, you can't kill them but they sometimes just unlcoak on top of a bus, then run away.

Whats the reasoning for this? just to **** you up abit?

It's just foreshadowing what's to come later down the road in the game. Yes, they are there just to **** with your mind.

I'm very close to the end stages and haven't faced these guys yet...having them stalk me through out the campaign has made me edgy...knowing I'll have to confront them eventually. This is why I saved up on 'nano catalysts' for 'cloak tracking'.

Good job on the atmosphere Crytek. There's numerous sounds that put me on edge during SP. Ceph drop ships, heavy cephs, and pingers...these freak me out when I hear their sounds off screen.

Are the cloaked ceph capable of seeing me when I'm cloaked?

I think those cloaked Ceph are observing you, watching your every move, gathering intel on your capabilities, and finding the perfect timing/way to stop the most powerful Human soldier NY has.

They're really not that hard to kill though.All they really do is take a **** of bullets but that's about it.They act as every other Ceph AI.Shoot from a distance,leap around,get in close,and have this pounce attack that knocks you back a bit.Only difference is that they cloak.

Use the K-Volt and good few hedshots or melees.

It might help if you sit back & tag the enemies first although the tags are quite hard to see in that level.

I've referred to them by two, in my opinion, fitting names.

-Uber Ceph
-Captains

Both names do nicely. You notice those deep red Ceph? I call those Lieutenants.

Yes, at the end of the single player campaign.

Yeah they are gathering intel so that they can run into a wall and get blasted by one jaw missile. Hell, thats what happened to me anyway. ;)
