this game has ruined me, anyone else

Post » Thu Dec 31, 2009 7:21 am

After playing this game with its over the top graphics, sliding moves, great weapons, melee, etc......I can't bring myself to go back to any other fps. They all seem so watered down after this epic masterpiece. I have went back to playing various others after this and they all feel so bland. I know it has its shortcomings, but it is still such a leap forward in this genre. Kudos to Crytek and so long to other titles.....I won't mention any names.

i love the singleplayer. all those tactical options! i love to play as a sneaky sob, "predator style", sneaking around and silently assassinating perimeter guards, then lure as many enemys to one place, decloak an unleash hell on them.
gameplay and map design in SP is almost perfect - yes, i believe crysis 2 spoiled me and i'm not looking forward to the next cod with it's rail-like level design and hours of sliding in and out of cover to kill thousands of enemies.
supersoldier difficulty should've been a bit higher. i'd recommend a bigger radius in which the enemy can see you cloaked. story could be more compelling, but i've seen so much worse (mw2 anymone?).
so yeah, sp-wise this could be a GOTY.

mp is a lot of fun, if your connection doesn't produce a huge amount of lag. which, unfortunately, it does for me in 9 out of 10 games.
I hope these issues will be fixed, although my hopes aren't high. but if, then this could be great.

I kinda feel the same way. I'm hardly ever one to give half a ball about graphics, but I tried watching a Top 10 Kills video for Black Ops on IGN yesterday and was completely astounded at how bad that game looks. The weapon customization is also a big improvement compared to most console games, and the open-ended nature of singleplayer combat areas is just far more interesting than the typical corridor shooters of modern times. This is why I still prefer the first Bad Company campaign to its sequel's, though I feel that Crysis 2 find's a better balance between combat area size and enemy presence than its predecessor did.

Whatever the case, yeah, it's hard to even take a passing glance at other shooters right now. Brink is the one other FPS coming out this year that has caught my attention gameplay-wise, with Battlefield 3 still keeping me somewhat interested thanks to the return of the destruction mechanic, but Crysis 2 is pretty much doing everything that Call Of Duty does, except... well, better. The nanosuit adds a great deal of variety and originality to some proven gameplay conventions, and it's kind of funny to me that so many games these days fail to take chances with their core combat like Crytek has.



Long story short, I like my nanosuit, and it's hard to imagine playing a game without it.

The thing is, he's got about 6000 kills and about 3 days play time on the game - quite a lot for someone who "hates" the game.

Troll is the right word.
