No it's still there.

I believe it's called Power Mode. It's combined with Strength mode.

Aye, Speed and Strength have essentially been thrown together into the general Nanosuit lineup. Holding Jump longer essentially performs the same "Strength" jump from Crysis 1; holding the melee button instead of tapping it performs like the Strength-powered punch, similarly. As for Speed, you still run fairly quickly in Crysis 2 when you Sprint, though it's nowhere near as quick as you could in Speed mode in Crysis. Other things like the reduction in recoil you get in Strength mode in Crysis have been turned into changeable modules for your suit; those modules themselves each have upgrades that improve their initial bonuses or add new ones. So there's always a possibility that players will still be able to Sprint at speeds more comparable to that in Crysis's Speed mode if a module upgrade provides that.

One could argue that Nanosuit 2.0 is in some ways a downgrade from the previous iteration. But the fact that you can now do things like a Strength jump with Armor activated or Sprint fairly quickly with Cloak engaged are certainly improvements. Win some, lose some, I suppose.



There's definitely one thing from Crysis that I haven't seen yet from Crysis 2, and I'm curious as to whether it'll make a return: grabbing enemies. We'll see if that's still an option.

You can still grab enemies, The Swashbuckler. In an early SP video from GT, you could see your player grabbing one of the enemies by the throat, and chucking him into the glass, falling to his death.

So yes, that's definitely confirmed, or wouldn't be Crysis. :)

On console you push the left anologue stick in you and sprint like in speed mode. On PC, you push left shift :)

It's not a mode you need to manually activate and lose other functionality in the process. It automatically activates when you sprint and also allows you to use other modes simultaneously, like sprinting in cloak or armour mode :)

One more thing, in armour mode you're slower (due to the suit has been hardened in this mode), so the sprint speed is slower, too.
