Cloak= overpowered

Post » Thu Nov 11, 2010 10:32 pm

in the other hand, games like FC2 which have a lot of bush in which you can stay crouch and hide and try to score headshots with your favorite silenced guns (MP5, 6P9 or dart rifle). Therefore the stealth is much more challenging and fun because you need a lot of patience, skill and experience.

You can still crouch in the bushes in C2 for stealth uncloaked. I found it out on a whim; it has to be crouch height.

Cloak is not totally invisible on SP. CELL soldiers constantly walk toward me, like they have a sense that someone's there.

If they walk to me, that's fine because they hear my footsteps but shooting at me while they don't see (because I'm cloaked) is just ridiculous.

The game is pretty easy regardless of difficulty due to Cloak.. it was the same in Crysis.
Cloak is very cool on paper but it actually does not make the gameplay any fun at all because you see enemies but they can't see you. That's unfair.

I think Crytek should DITCH the cloak and redesign the nanosuit. Instead of cloak, the new nanosuit has camouflage feature (similar to the suit in MGS 4) that make the enemies hard to spot you but it does not make you completely invisible.

that was actually what they planned for the first one but they decided to go for cloak

Here is a summary of issues so far.

OP: cloak is overpowered, it makes you invisible

Reality: no, if you have eyes, you can see someone in cloak, it was designed that way. If your vision is bad, try nanovision.

The end.. pending further whining.

I played on Post-Human Warrior and found Crysis 2 unbelivably easy....
I played Crysis on Veteran and failed constantly =/

I think the AI is just dumber in this game, and they don't do enougth damage.

The AI is definitely way dumber, I might say it's dumber than 99.9% FPS in this gen.
