Weapon Customization in Crysis 3

Post » Sun Dec 23, 2012 9:43 am

Okay, so the purpose of this thread is to gain a little clarity when it comes to the weapon customization options in Crysis 3.

We know from interviews and videos etc that real time customization is in multiplayer, which is great because to be honest, the customization in Crysis 2 multiplayer was abysmal, especially if the time between rounds was on a short timer and you had to race to change something.

What i am REALLY interested in, however, is the variety of attachments that can be added to a gun simultaneously. in Crysis 1, you could have a silenced, single shot SCAR with a grenade launcher, laser pointer and sniper scope, which both looked cool and was a pretty darn handy tool to have with you. Crysis 2's customization shat all over this freedom, reducing the options on the scar down to a few different sights (which includes laser pointer), and a few other things like extended clip and single shot which were a one-or-the-other situation.

The question is - will we have near unlimited customization in Crysis 3?
It would make the game 100% better and so much more like the original if we did.

Finally to finish - WHY THE BLOODY HELL WAS SINGLE SHOT AN ATTACHMENT?
WHAT THE HELL!

*Alcatraz thinking to himself* 'well hey, this extended clip is somehow interfering with my ability to switch firemodes on my rifle. Better switch to my smaller mags and magically put a selective fire unit in my rifle under heavy fire from those guys over there!'

We only were able to look at some guns so far, like an instant in a dambusters video so we can′t tell which guns will have all the attachments.

Saying that, there are extra attachments like a heavy barrel, but the single shot remains an attachment and the laser pointer still can′t be used with other sights.

This has made me very sad.
How hard is it for Crytek to just permanently add singleshot as a fire option and make a new slot for laser?
Bleh.

They changed sooo much things from Crysis 1 - I understand if they try to make the game more open to "newcomers", but hey ... why have they removed so much great things :(
