Real World: Could we defeat the Ceph?

They are more advanced than humans... and if they're really alien species that came to Earth form somewhere in the Universe, they would obliterate us before we could even notice it!

"No, not in Crysis. In the real world."

"sniper teams with gauss rifles could take them out from 1000 yards."

No such thing as gauss rifles in the real world.

lmao I thought the same xD

a race that mastered interstellar space travel surely has better technology then us, the game just has to even it out so its fun to play

no chance in hell anything we can do about aliens invading us, it would be like Neanderthals vs Modern military, sure the Neanderthals score a few by hitting a soldier in the head with a stone, but we take out probably 100000 for ever one they take out

second world war , Russia vs Germany, the technological difference only 2-3 decades, the only way Russians where able to win is having 10 to 1, for every German airplane 10 Russian planes had to be built... aliens have probably 100's if not 1000's of years technological advantage if they able to come here

if hostile aliens come prepared to fight we are history, even decades from that will be the case, even if we have waker, robotic planes where g forces wont mater, terminator like war robots, a moon base with some military on ground and space we would not have the slightest chance

BUT just for the heck, if aliens really only would have pathetic technology then they have in this game, sure we can take them, but if they do that that would be like we having nuclear powered submarines and jets like now , but they only trow stones and wooden arrows as weaponry = impossible to happen

how ever it could happen that they have not expect intelligent life on this planet and they only send colony ships with very limited military capability, then maybe they would be weak enough for us to resist them, but only till they reinforcements get here

in this game sure enough the aliens look like a scouting party, or research unit, not an invasion

Hmm the Combine needed 7 hours to conquer the world. (From HL1 to HL2)
The Seph needed 3 years to get from the lingshan islands to New York...

Epic fail !

If the logic is followed it would take only a man with a crowbar to send them running home ?

Well Gordon also catches every single possible break in the world. He's like a walking good-luck charm.

Vs Ceph gunship? No chance in hell...

They might be able to take damage quickly, but they're fast and could easily flank an apache and destroy it.


The Ceph themselves are weak: just floating squid. Take away those exosuits and they can't even move around without Zero-G. If we found a way to disable their suit tech, we'd have them beat.

It looks like the ground troops flesh is only partially covered by it's armor so I'll take 2 of these.

What an interesting discussion. Still in 4 days we'll see what we could do with the upper hand.

That still doesn't change the fact that Ceph Scouts are... erm... they can move in any direction at any moment. They're a hell of a lot more maneuverable than ANYTHING we have. All one would have to do to dodge a rocket would be to suddenly jump to the side a second before impact. Something they're extremely good at, if you'll remember Crysis 1.

Your argument rocks bro, and imma let you finish...

But did you play the VTOL level? VTOLs had no problem kicking alien ass and they aren't even attack gunships, more like Mi-24's of the future. From what i've seen of the 'new Ceph' in Crysis 2, the aircraft seem pretty bulky and slow. And in the space around Skyline, you can see A-10's chasing Ceph dropships everywhere quite successfully.

I still believe we have the air advantage. If we can react quick enough to keep enemies off the ground, we would have a chance.

Old Spice guy > Chuck Norris > Sub Zero/Zangief

I'm just sayin'. Sure, you can fight with galaxy-breaking roundhouse kicks, but you can't live without deodorant. Who's with me on this one? :P

Back on topic, if the Ceph are to become a reality, I'd suppose they'd be a lot smarter and come in greater numbers. If our only chance to fight are to use standard projectile weapons, not to mention the absence of a nanosuit, I'd say we'd have to sacrifice a lot of people before we'd see them off this planet. Lest I forget to mention what my friend told me, "Everyone can use a gun, but can everyone aim properly?" I guess it would turn in to a zombie apocalypse-like scenario.
