PC Gamer Mag Dude with Crysis 2 As read from the article above, Crysis 2 is suppose to be more linear and narrowed down compared to Crysis and Warhead. Kind of expected, different design, different machines, and its New York City. Perhaps, that can go with the design. The "tester" and the devs however noted that unlike Crysis and Warhead where the open world was horizontal, the open world in Crysis 2 is suppose to be vertical. Whatever that means. I'm assuming, the buildings of course and maybe turning into a King Kong and climb those buildings =D... The thing I'm more upset about is....the powers have been narrowed down >.> from 5 (Max Strength, Max Speed, Clock, Max Armor, and Weapon Customize) to only two and a "half" (Max Strength and Clock). -Max Speed is now a normal Sprint. AAHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I loved using different combos to get one thing down....now its narrowed down I'm sad =( On the good side, those screen look awesome.

Huh? Are you sure your info is right? There is still real time customization and still max armor. As you can see in the HUD.

Oh I did, I just didn't think it would go this far :P. I mean I expected linear levels and so forth. Though to take away my powers? WTF!

I thought it was only 2 in mp, I remember watching a interview where there was armor, power (speed and strength, you run twice as fast while sprinting but walk normally), and cloak, which is three and I think Crysis only had four.

How about saying it is a sequel with an all new suit. The suit is streamlined so it is better and faster to use. Changes in a sequel, who would have thought of such a thing?

Faster to Use? It was fast enough, I could swap from power to power in less then a half a second..

I love this set-up myself, following my playthrough of Crysis this feels perfectly natural as progression.

They looked how people wanted to play the game and there is a delay between speed and strength and people didn't want that so they combined the two.

There is also upgrade pods or something you can collect that give you small improvements to different aspects of each suit power. You can only attach a limited number of them at a time but you can swap them out for others at different times in the game or at the beginning of a chapter.

Also the maps in Crysis 2 look the same size as Crysis Warhead but they are easily smaller than Crysis.

Also you should change the title of the thread to 4 powers to 3. That would make your title not a lie.

Hence the " .. ", people might see things different. I thought the way you attach and dis-attach things was pretty cool.

Meh, I only ever used Speed for going fast (which is sprinting anyway, this makes sense) and then Cloak and Strength to play. The others were just useless or pretty much nothing a weapon/item couldn't do in other games. Armor for example. Though Weapon Customize isn't a armor ability...

In Crysis you have 4 power modes which were, Speed, Strength, Cloak, And Armor. The only thing they've done in Crysis 2 is combine Speed and Strength for obvious reasons.

It's still there. Except this time there are actually animations of attaching attachments. Then still why not change it to "5" to "4" or "5" to 3?

Really? your complaing about getting a better suit? maybe pc gamers need to learn what streamlining is, because clearly they have no clue, seem to think technology just gets more bloated and complex.

pretty sure i read that in like gameinformer or some magazine when the game first got its previews. something about the suit is streamlined but adapts to your playstyle and from their branches out to give you further options.

mmmm.

if it's sprint and strength being merged, probably a good thing.

can't say I've used strength/sprint for more than a few seconds at a time compared to armor/cloak.

strength to jump, then you quickly switch back to sprint/cloak really. and I never found myself punching anyone to death.
