Ceph Tactics

Post » Thu Nov 11, 2010 7:09 am

Is it me or do the Ceph seem a little dumb in the head now some of the time but 98% of the time??

For beings that are supposed to be more advanced than us they seem to take ages to make any sort or decision on how to take the player down even on the hardest difficulty.
I feel kinda annoyed that they are too easy to kill even on the hardest difficulty, the first Crysis was a real challenge even in the hardest difficulty.

Also when they are walking around terrain such as in the level "a walk in the park" where it is very uneven, if they are walking and they fall from a certain height the just carry on walkin in mid air?

Ive also seen this with the humans too it just make the game look cheap and tacky.

It seems that certain animations that should have been there are not maybe cos of limitations to get this game to work on consoles.
As a pc gamer with a real tough rig which compares to nearly 4 xbox 360s, that can play the original crysis without issue i feel a bit let down.
Maybe Crytek should have made a better version for us pc gamers and a low end version for consoles if they are not able to cope with its graphical demand.

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed?

Entire AI is dumb - here you can read all the issues I encountered during first try of the campagin.

Don't worry - it won't be fixed anytime soon (if ever - issues with Crysis 1 AI ain't fixed till today, though they almost don't exist if you compare them to what we have here).

Its just too easy even on the 360.

You havent seen any NPC's being stuck? Like being stuck on another NPC or simply stuck on a piece of terrain?

I would really liek to know the names of the btea testers [if any] and sit them down in a all day conference and ask them 47 pages full of questions as to how exactly they missed all this

My bet would be that EA forced Crytek to release this crap in order to drain money from naive people as all of us who bought the game.
IMO Crytek haven't got time to do any QA cause otherwise they would notice at least 50% of bugs in a first day.
We simply play the Alpha version right now (note: Crysis 2 that leaked was Beta - it got 64bit version and some modding tools AFAIK), after 2 patches in next 6 months we'll get Beta. Now, if EA agrees - MAYBE we gonna get something that can be considered a Full retail version of the game. But I wouldn't bet on that.

The AI is a hit or miss for me. Sometimes they are really smart and other times they are pretty dumb.

Use g_skipintro = 1 in your autoexec. It'll still show that weird eye screen, but that's because the game is actually doing something meaningful.


the eye i can live with :D
